Hello, my name is JustEnergy. I am a platinum donor on the MCGamer Network and I have been in this community since December 2013. Everyday I always say, what happened to the MCSG servers that I once loved? The servers back in 2013-2014 were perfect! No glitches, hackers couldn't fly and just much more fun overall. Today I am going to discuss what happened and how to fix these problems and how to bring this server back up to the top!
What is wrong?:
- FNS Glitch:
There has been a bug with MCSG that has been here for over a year. Many of you may know of it, and it is the fns glitch. This glitch is when you try to place fire and it disappears when you place it. It also uses up flint and steel charges.
- Eating Glitch:
On the MCSG servers, we have all experienced the eating glitch. This is when you eat food and it will not fill up your hunger bars. Sometimes, you need to change the food that you are eating after a few failed attempts.
- Armor Glitch:
This glitch is a little less common, but I tend to find it a lot. This is when you put on armor, then you later find it in your inventory, not on you.
- Bow Glitch:
Sometimes, you will experience a glitch where your bow will not shoot. This happens sometimes, but it is not reoccuring to the point where it makes the bow unusable, almost like the fns.
- The Anti-cheat:
The current anti-cheat is absolutely terrible. It allows hackers to fly around the map with their kill aura on the max setting. The old anti-cheat wasn't very good either, but it at least banned hackers at a much higher rate.
How to fix these problems?:
First, slow down a bit! You guys clearly have a ton of glitches that need to be worked on! You guys cannot be focused on updating to 1.9 and bringing in more glitches! You have to fix what you have, then you look to try and improve. Next you have to listen more to the community. I always see good suggestions for the server that are on the forums! You need to look more directly at the community to see what the players want. This was the same case with the 1.8 update last year. Everyone said no, and you guys updated anyway. I always see other servers thriving because they are giving the players what they want. Finally, you guys (devs specifically) need to sit down, and spend a lot of your time working on an anti-cheat that bans these blatant hackers automatically. Badlion's anticheat is always banning the hackers that are blatantly hacking. If you guys could make an anti-cheat that could compete with Badlion, the server would begin to grow like it used to.
Other Suggestions:
- Bring back the old hit detection
If you're an old time player, you will understand. Ever since MCGamer had its 1.8 update, the hits have gotten very weird and unstable. You always see very random and unstable hits. Even after they went back to 1.7, the hits were never fixed. If you guys could bring back the old hits back in the day, it would make the PvP experience much better!
- Fix /disguise
Disguise has been broken for as long as I could remember. People are always finding out /disguise names and it is always ruining the experience for those players. A simple solution is to randomize stats while in /disguise. This is a good way to make sure that people aren't going on the MCGamer leaderboards and searching up the stats of the disguised player.
- Bring back the SG signs (1-200) and the 8 hubs:
Some of my greatest memories on MCGamer came from hub 8. I always used to hang out with my friends in hub 8 and it was so much more fun. It was much easier to find players and it was just more organized in general.
- Bring Alaskan Village back to US
One thing that I would really love is the addition of Alaskan Village. You guys removed it from US and nothing has happened since. Please bring back this map as it was one of my favorite maps.
- Bring back the Master Sword and stone sword on Valleyside
I memorize some of the good days when these items could be found. Being the first to get to these items brought in much more competition, and it just made the game more fun in general.
- Change the hub
Please, you guys have had this hub since June 2015. This hub is getting old now and its time for a change. (Bring back hub 2014 for a throwback!)
- Add a day/night cycle to the hub
Please do this! This has been a highly requested feature and it shouldn't be too hard to do. I personally like the hubs that are nice and bright rather than the ones that are always dark.
- Different punishment system
Alright, this is an extra suggestion that I feel should be addressed. You guys should try changing the punishment system. I believe that there should be a more forgiving system, but a little bit more strict than servers like Badlion. Maybe after 6 months of being banned for something like hacks, the user can have the option to buy an unban for somewhere around $20-$30. This will show that the player is dedicated and that they are truly sorry for what they did. I just think that there are a lot of players that are sorry for their mistakes and would love a second chance.
I hope you guys liked this thread. If you have any suggestions, please let me know! I would love to here what you guys have to say! Lets bring back the original MCSG!
