I love the update. It brings back memories of MCSG v1. It's just so amazing.
I'm glad the higher staff listened to our requests - THANK YOU!
(Be grateful the developers listened to our requests in the first place.)


Now for the main reason I am writing this post...
"#changeitback", "v2 chests are better", "its too hard to win now", etc.

I've stated this multiple times. This game is called SURVIVAL GAMES for a reason... It hasn't had much survival recently, and we're now getting back into that survival aspect many of us have missed. If you just want PvP, I can escort you to a PvP server.

Winning has been way too easy. It sucked - not going to lie - I hated the v2 chests... It didn't feel like Survival Games. I did however continue playing because the community is like a family, and the game was still fun nonetheless - just not as fun as v1 chests.

If you're going to complain about the chest update - actually try to give a good reason. I've seen people on here only post "#changeitback". Really? The developers won't even consider changing it back if you don't give valid & strong reasons.

It really ticks me off when people complain about the update - just because they can't win. If you want to win, form more strategies. It's fun to create a new route, spice things up a bit, and overall - have fun!
I am more proud of the wins I receive in the chest update/v1 chests - because it's so much harder to win - which in turn makes games more intense and, in my opinion, makes it a lot more fun.

If you're going to post, please don't start any flame wars.
TL;DR - Read the thread...

EDIT: I respect everyone's opinion.

I dislike the chest update due to the fact that it is based off luck. Whoever finds a Tier 3 or gets lucky with Tier 2's basically win. Sure v2 chests were OP, but at least anyone who knew the location of Tier 2's would have an almost equal chance.

Tier 3's aren't even that OP. They removed diamond gear, and lowered TNT to 2. It's basically a V2 tier 2 along with XP, TNT, and crafting tables.
EDIT: So if you're complaining about Tier 3's, I'm surprised you haven't complained about v2 Tier 2's...

No, I joined in v1; but never made a forum account.

Enchant bottles are almost guaranteed level, and a sharpness sword is pretty OP. Not to mention that good armor is way more common in Tier 3's and crafting tables can be easily abused.

At least in v2 chests, anyone who found a Tier 2 chest would have around the same amount of armor. V2 chests were more PvP than who gets lucky with chests wins. If getting lucky with chests is the so-called "survival", then I don't want it.
