Bedrock EggWars We gotta talk about eggwars today

[notekproo]

Ok, so, lots of things have happened overtime that I dont really like. You can give your opinions on this:
- The removal of the emerald generator into the random dropping power ups
- The limiting on the amount of tnt you can hold (You cannot airstrip as much anymore)
- The ui changes (Sometimes they glitch even without rp)
- The fact that there is no to3 for this gamemode (..I mean come on, everyone wants this)
- The bump up of a lot of prices
- The removal/moving of general places (I cannot speedrun anymore meaning I have to get used to the new placement)
- In General, just bringing back the 2020-2021 eggwars era would heal the entire community as well as make the mode popular again. Also, it would be my main again

Give your opinions on what I think. Do you agree or nah? Let me know below!

:)

I absolutely agree with this.
At some point, eggwars was the main center of attraction in cc, although it got ruined by the newer updates, making players by implementing new unwanted features, hence forcing them to leave the community.
In order to get back to its prime, cubecraft must revive the og games like eggwars by doing what the community wants from them.
Not by implementing features which are hated by the playerbase.
Hopefully our staff will work on this at spme point.

I completely agree with you. When I first joined CubeCraft, I was really into EggWars it was my main game. But over time, especially after the updates, I stopped playing it and switched to SkyWars and other games instead. EggWars used to be so much fun, and I think if they fixed it and brought back the old version, not only would I start playing it again, but a lot of other players would too.

Thanks for sharing your thoughts! I think you brought up a lot of valid points, and I’ll add my perspective while keeping things constructive:

• Emerald Generator Removal: The new power-up system can be fun, but the emerald generator offered more consistent strategy. I think some players miss that stability.
• TNT Limit: I understand the aim was to balance gameplay, but it definitely reduces some creative strategies like airstrips.
• UI Changes: The updated UI looks nice, but there are still occasional glitches even without a resource pack. Hopefully those can be polished in future updates.
• No To3 Mode: A trio mode would definitely be interesting, and many players have asked for it. I think it could fit well if the team ever considers expanding modes.
• Price Adjustments: Some of the new prices change the pacing quite a bit. It may help balance in some areas, but it also slows certain playstyles.
• Map/Placement Changes: When item positions or layout elements move, it takes time to adjust, especially for people who used to speedrun.

I think a “classic” version of the mode — similar to the 2020–2021 style — could be a great option for players who prefer the older gameplay. It would be nice to have both the modern and classic experiences available.

That's true.

The bigger issue is cubecraft bedwars just sucking up cubecraft eggwars players.

That's smth which we can't deal with, unless they somehow make both of the games slightly different.

Heya! I'd like to share my thoughts on these points, not as a staff member, but simply as a member of the community who's genuinely enjoyed this mode since the day it came out. A lot has changed over the years, which some I have to admit have negatively impacted the experience, while others did improve the overall quality. I'm not interested in sugarcoating, so I'll be sharing things as they are to me.

1. "The removal of the emerald generator into the random dropping power ups"
Back when emeralds actually generated, they were barely used. The generator was incredibly slow, and what you got for the time invested wasn't remotely balanced. The revamp finally gave emeralds a real purpose: team discounts, personal effects, game-wide modifiers through eliminations and egg breaks. Realistically, I view this system brought emeralds to life and made them relevant.

2. "The limiting on the amount of tnt you can hold"
I have a rather nuanced view on this one as well. I didn't necessarily love the restriction, but I can't deny why it needed to happen. With late-game discount and fully upgraded gold gens, TNT becomes absurdly cheap, and infinitely stackable if your inventory allowed it. In that state, it was simply to overpowered.

3. "No To3 mode"
Personally, I don't see a pressing need for a trios mode. We already have solos, duos, squads, mega, and duels. And with overall activity decline across the network compared to 2020-2021 – which is popularly deemed as the "golden Eggwars era", – adding another queue might end up spreading players even thinner, rather than improving the experience.

4. "The bump up of a lot of prices"
Comparing today's shop to the 2020-2021 version, most prices are actually very similar if I remember correctly. After the 'EggWars: OG Update,' many cost changes were rolled back to match the older structure. It's much closer to the classic shop than it was a year or two ago.

5. "Bringing back the 2020-2021 era would heal the community and make the mode popular again"
I get the nostalgia, and it almost kills me as well. A lot of us had out best Eggwars memories in that period. But I don't think reverting everything would recreate the same environment. The surge back then was tied to a unique moment in time: COVID had everyone at home, Minecraft's player base was larger, and the community landscape was simply.. different. The decline in activity feels more connected to broader trends than to any single update.

And to be fair, many players who walked away after an update they deemed "bad" probably used it as the final nudge to step back. Because having a clear, frustrating change made it easier to justify moving on, which is a very beautiful, inevitable human reaction. When people feel their rhythm with a game break, they often take it as a sign to shift their time elsewhere.

I agree with the one abt emerald generators being removed as it makes it a real hassle to get it as u need to break eggs or get final kills or get it at mid, and it can take forever to get them and they are really good for shop discounts, and also, the emerald gens were removed the same time as discounts, so they have a use and could be used a lot more then before, when they were just for few items and didn’t serve any special purpose like discounts. Also I agree with the ui bcs when I’m buying a lot of items my game just freezes on me so I have to relog and join a new game. The third thing I agree with is the price expansion, because some items are really hard to get as you have to grind gems for minutes. I am undecided on other stuff in this post, but I do agree changing other things to the 2021 would fix a lot.

 

[neptuneenchantment]

cubecraft also killed eggwars, 8k players in 2023 to 1k players now in 2025, i could also come back to playing eggwars if eggwars wasnt dead and if it was fun to play. they could make it new player friendly so new players could play eggwars.

 

[emptypandora]

Classic example of don't fix something that isn't broken.

 

[Itz1carl]

I agree with a lot of your points. The 2020–2021 EggWars era really felt special, and some of the recent changes don’t feel as good. I’d love to see a mix of the old style and the new features.
