Java Blockwars:Assault - A fun twist of blockwars in 1.14

[GalacticAC]

We have crossbow in 1.14 with unique mechanics so maybe we can play with it a little :D
(This is a WIP idea, so it will prob need a lot of changes)

The game is mostly based on blocker, however with a few difference:

- Arrows are not affected by gravity, but they will despawn when they hit a block or fly in the air for more than 15 seconds
-You take no knockback from arrow
- The player will have the same armor for every class: Iron boot, Iron legging, Iron chestplate, Super Helmet (Light Grey Glass, +4 armor, +100 armor toughness)
- The main weapon used are the crossbows with different enchants for each class, also each crossbow will have a "heaviness" which will slow down the player while holding them to an extent
- Offhand slot is disabled, it will be reserved for "ammo clips" (explanation below)
- Ammunition for weapons are stored in "ammo clips" (enchanted iron ingots) To take ammunition out for use, put one (only one at a time) in your offhand and it will disappear and give you some ammunition. This will take roughly 1 second (Note,: doing this will also clear the existing ammunition in your inventory, so only open a new clip when you used up the old one)
- All pickaxe will drop blocks now

This is what a player will look like in this mode:

Well of course, I want blockwars back. And this makes blockwars more unique.

Hmm I love BlockWars, but this isn’t BlockWars. Big no no from me

This is a pretty different thing from original blockwars , was intended to make it be more like a "fps" game

 

[Keanu]

If this would get implemented blockwars cant support 1.14- anymore so its a big no

Make only this game 1.14+ while keep it on the same server as other 1.9 games (it is possible trust me)

 

[Keanu]

It is possible but people who want to play blockwars must have 1.14

Lots of people will update to lastest version when it comes out probably, and who knows what will cubecraft do for 1.14?

If 1.14 is as laggy and annoying as 1.13 was then it isn't going to happen. Minecraft servers aren't typically known to keep updating all the time when there are still servers running 1.7

Try optfine
and It doesnt really make sense to stick to 1.9 when we take the step to update to 1.9 itself...

Blockwars is more a "sword game" than a "bow/crossbow game" , at least we may take some ideas from your suggestion.

I would like to see this an indivdual gamemode
this games relationship with blockwars is like the relationship between skywars and lucky island
what do you think about the idea tho？ :D

1.13 is slower in every way to 1.9, it doesn't matter if you use optifine or not, until it gets much more optimised, it won't be an option at all to low end computers. On top of that, on cubes end, a Skywars server can run on 4gb of RAM in 1.12 but in one 1.13, it will require much more than that, say for example 8gb. It's an extra cost that cube doesn't need.

1.14 runs slightly better thatn 1.13

true but we don't know exactly how it'll do until it comes out.

What do you think about the idea tho? I was thinking about maybe just make a entirely new game for this instead of being a ripoff of blockwars

New games should really be Minecraft related. The most popular games on servers are Minecraft and this isn't Minecraft. Fake fortnite died instantly and then theres blockband too.
