Ok, wait, what happens to those like me who have all lifetime ranks? Will my voting permissions, cosmetics, map selection, etc. be revoked?
That is, It's like cubecraft want money from rich kids who gonna pay iti paid $134.55 AUD for ranks now its $17 AUD per MONTH?
I saw someone asking a similar question in the profile posts a bit back, and Fesa said “Any items purchased/gifted before the changes remain the same as they have been.” This is consistent with my experience having the lucky islands rank (I’m still super thankful about that, you’re the best) where I can currently use map selection for lucky islands, but not POF. I'm not sure whether Cube plans on extending these privileges to work as new content is added, such as map selection for new maps or voting permissions when new voting options eventually/hypothetically release.Ok, wait, what happens to those like me who have all lifetime ranks?

Wait, so your saying they are not removing my Blockwars, Eggwars, Skyblock, BA and Skywars perm ranks then??I saw someone asking a similar question in the profile posts a bit back, and Fesa said “Any items purchased/gifted before the changes remain the same as they have been.” This is consistent with my experience having the lucky islands rank (I’m still super thankful about that, you’re the best) where I can currently use map selection for lucky islands, but not POF.

No. Your ranks will not be removed/taken away.Wait, so your saying they are not removing my Blockwars, Eggwars, Skyblock, BA and Skywars perm ranks then??
Yep I can already see how this is going to impact legacy rankholders, I have EggWars rank with map selection now, but I wouldn't be surprised if any new maps that they added wouldn't be accesible to me, the fact that Pillars and Disasters are part of other ranks but need the new subscriptions is very over the top, it was a direct decision and action by a dev that made it cost extra, it's very unnessecary. I can see how with the Priv. games and everything how they're like "You have this with your legacy rank but you could have more with a subscription." It's also very convienient that the switch isn't actually mentioned anywhere. :/This whole update is just a massive middle finger to everyone long time player especially Vip lvl 30s. Cubecraft unfortunately is following the greedy trend of most corporations by adding subscriptions and no longer allowing ownership. Cubecradt knows they’ll make more money through subscriptions than ownership. Anyone who supports this new update is stupid because it only made it easier for Cubecraft to funnel money your money into their pockets.
Vip Lvl 30 used to have unique features like flight. Many people got vip 30 for the ability to fly and prestige. Imagine how most Vip 30s felt when all of a sudden any random person could fly by just getting one bundle. This one bundle kinda made Vip 30 useless because the main draw of vip 30 was flight. Like no one is getting vip 30 for 20 party slots which you’ll never use or 300 friend slots which you also probably will never fill. They’re getting it for prestige and flight. Now with this update, Vip 30s don’t even get private games. It’s almost like cubecraft forgot about their existence. Cubecraft quite literally used us up and threw us away when they no longer needed us. Cubecraft wants to make Vip 30 redundant because that get more money by selling subscriptions to newer players.
Subscriptions suck. Ownership is always more valuable than a subscription. Getting a subscription for a rank for only 1 year cost more I believe than what it used to cost to outright own the rank. Now remember that people will be paying for this subscription for years and now cubecraft us making so much more money off of a subscription rather than selling ten dollar ranks.
Additionally, the new portals look ugly. Please return the Eggwars lobby into what it used to be. Now it’s just a capitalist wet dream with so many cosmetics. The lobby isn’t designed with players in mind, but instead is designed with cosmetics in mind.
TLDR Cubecraft are a bunch of greedy capitalists who want to suck money out of new players, and they ditched oldest players because they are pf no use to them eh m anymore in their eyes. I know cubecraft won’t change anything. Heck! They didn’t even publish this announcement until a day after the changes were made, so people were in the dark about this changes.
