Hey guys, I got an idea that can improve the server. So my idea in short is: Server events (as you already saw in the title  ). But what do I mean in detail with that ? Well, just every often some server events. Here some examples of a few server events : - A pvp event in an area, FFA this could be with your own stuff or everyone got the same stuff. - A minigame like sumo, everyone get's a stick with knockback 2, there is a platform and the goal is to knock all the other people off. There are some funny other simple-minigames that also can be played. - Maybe something like a mining event, so everyone has to gather coal or lapis and after a certain time the winner can win a prize. - Or an admin or mod hiding a skyvault somewhere and everyday when no one found it there is a new hint wich is leading to the vault. - It will also possible that a mod/admin builds a really strong factionbase and we(the players) need to get that base down to get the loot
Good things: - Server events can make the server more like an individual server. - It is fun to play and you can win something. - It adds some competition. - You can make events to work together in a team or just where you have to play on your own.
Not so good things: - If there is something like FFA pvp fight there could be some problems with allies. Solution: Make another world with the arena's also disable the factions on that world.
- Not all the players are online at the same moment, because of the different time zones. Solution: You can announce events on the forum so everyone knows about it and can try to come online when the event starts. This depends on the sort of event, some events last a couple of days and some just 30mins.
Big events like searching for a skybase or something like a mining event can be announced at the forum a couple of days before it starts. But some smaller events like just a quick game of summo don't need to be announced and can just be played if a mod/admin want to start an event. The loot you get from that event is of course less than bigger an bigger event. I hope I gave you a good idea what I mean with the events, I gave just a few examples and explained it in general. This could be more extensive, I(or other motivated builders) could also make something like an arena or a place for some events. We could also say that we do an event every week at a certain time. If you got some idea's for events I would love to hear them, just like feedback on the idea for the events. This is also a nice addition to the KOTH -EnricoFlippert

+1 On the first two events but the rest just seem like a waste of time and I believe many players would find it quite annoying as hackers can simply use mods like xrays, chest finders and other hacked modifications that the server doesn't have a plugin to stop yet just to complete the events. :3 - Nathan

And it where just a few examples, there could be some more events |

Well you see if an event such as the pvp or the sumo event took place there would be staff online making sure that everything goes right but if a an event like the mining event took place it would be very difficult for us to supervise it. ☺ - Nathan

Currently there is a KOTH arena (The Ruins Outside Of Spawn) but not too sure if we have it fully working yet! I also have suggested to tnt a Supply Crate plugin that every so often at /warp pvp crates are dropped.

In terms of events I don't really see FFA as an event more than it already is a natural staple of combat, especially if you used your own gear. Now if instead you did something akin to a tournament for teams of like 5 or a tournament of factions against each other it would be easier to distinguish combatants since they could sign up on the forum post as as a listed team and if you gave each team the same gear of colored gear and placed each in a built world where it would be like a colosseum where the doors to each party was controlled by a single switch that a staff observing can pull to begin the fight. This way you can also determine winners and their teams more easily. (Perhaps you may just make a walls map and have weekly or bi-weekly competition where the members of the winning team(which could be restricted to 4-6 teams of registered groups) receive like some donor kit or some other stipulation) Also, events should e kept into same day occurrence and not stretches into things like days since it loses flavor fast. Your other events also seem highly prone to cheating and aren't as easy to monitor for staff. |
