It's in fact growing faster than I ever thought! I'm getting a lot of feedback from youtube, facebook, Steam, there's no end to it! And despite the many grief attack, people just wanna reconstruct. It's true that half-wood blocks are a good motivation, suckers won't destroy it as easily. But I also noted the help that some players gives freely. That really motivates me into making more schtuff for the server and to open it more frequently.
We also lived our first Server event, which was a success. Sort of. We had winners, so I think that is enough. It was more of a test to see if something like that would work. The fighters could not stay in place, so I decided to start the fight, ready or not. Some called unfair, but they only had to stop being 9 years old kids. Then they stood in place before the fights.
For the next Server Event, I will organize a treasure hunting. Nothing too complicated, but be ready to use google. You may have to check some references.
As for other events, I have some ideas. Here's a short list:
-Building competitions (sculptures, airships, whatever else)
-Archery contests
-More PvP stuff
-Wargrounds (When we'll have enough people and when the servers will stop lagging due to beta being beta)
-Monster Slaughters
And I'll probably come up with more stuff as time goes on. If you have suggestions, then this is the place to write them down :D
Thanks for reading and take care. Oh, and the next post next week is about the Aether. They finally unleashed paradise! (as a mod)
a suggestion for event would be say. a tower building contest.
ReplyDeleteto explain. give players a large amount of blocks and have them construct a tower to specific length/width/height etc etc and have steps going all the way to the top
