Map Idea/Features - Ideas from Builders on Vareides Server

[Sidera]

Ok basically I'm on Vareide's server right now and we are discussing new maps. Now there are a few plans in place for some new big scale maps but having large scale maps takes a lot of building and time and they would like to be able to keep some variety in survival games.

The idea is to release a few more natural maps, not as massively built as SG2 more like SG1 that can be alternated between rounds of survival games on the servers to keep things interesting. They would also give people new material to play whilst they work on bigger more detailed maps.

Now we want to know people's opinions on this idea, if they think alternating more simplistic style maps would be something they would like and if that would be possible for the servers here to organize.

Or whether people would like large detailed maps to be the focus of their efforts.

Please let us know your thoughts on this! Thank you

Well it depends...If they are detailed they will look amazing, but a lot of people will lag on it.

So like I said, it depends.

Well detailed maps take longer to build, it would basically be like the SG2 in a different theme so no worse than the lag on that.

But we want to know what you think of alternating less detailed maps each game and if that would be possible and if people would like that, so we know if its worth having some people work on those maps as well.

Basically everytime you restart a game a new map would be used for the next game, so people aren't constantly playing the same map. That is what they would like implemented if it is possible. They don't want people to get bored of one map and it will also therefore take people more time to find all the secrets and chests

So you would prefer a simple map because that would decrease the lag?

If you are having trouble with lag optifine can completely get rid of it, thats how I manage to play

I have no trouble with lag.

You should have seen the complaints from people when the second map was released on this forum. What I'm saying is, don't make it so big that people will lag.

I don't think there should be a problem with the particular one I am working on with a few people at the moment, I've been told it was mostly the height of the buildings etc. that caused people to lag out as their render doesn't go far enough to load it?

'The buildings out rendered clients causing them to lag or crash'

Aha, Sweet!
