Minecraft Name: Manerman12 Suggestion: "Ecocitycraft Mob Arena" - As for now the variaty of methods to make/win big bux is limitted to mostly farming, Mining and SG. A Mob arena would in the words increase the variety by enhancing the PVE-economy. The Suggestion is in other words to create a Arena, where instead of aiming your frustrations on silly coal ores, herbs or other players you combine forces and concentrate on tering down as many mob-wawes as possible. Battling in the arena would give quite useful benefits and rewards. For instance, any experience you collect in the Arena would be added to your current experience, which you won't lose if you die. Also the player would be rewarded ecodollars x-times wawes completed. The Arena would be based on a class-system similar to this one, which is a "rippoff" from the broken community of "Buxville" and their Mob Arena, when it was running. All-in all it has 8 classes, increasing the amount of compinations in strategies you'll make with your fellow Ecocitycraft friends. Reason: I think much of the reasoning is added to the suggestion section im sorry. I've decided to combine the suggestion/reasoning as I simply put too much attention into the writing to discover the section names (spending some quality time in dreamland) Other Information: The Areana is kinda stolen from a server which i put a sad amount of hours into (the community broke). I loved the Mob Arena and sadly i could not find much more information about it. Link to this plugin/Is this a custom addition?: Allthough i've huge intentions of turning this idea into reality, i have no background whatsoever in Plugin development or any kind of Server development for that matter which is why the idea litterally needs a developer's touch. I am not quite sure how plugin-development works, and/or if a plugin for this particular built exists, which is why i must define it as a Custom for now. #Helpme @JamieSinn
http://dev.bukkit.org/bukkit-plugins/mobarena/ Link to plugin. I think this is a decent idea, but will MCMMO be allowed? If so, this could be way to easy for people with high combat stats, or a great way to train your stats. Also, the amount of money and how it would be given concerns me, can't be too much better than any of the other methods.
Well, more official sources claim it'll be ready, or at least ready for open beta, by the end of summer. Who do I believe? Some random or one of the people working on it? :b
Yeah, they've been saying the end of this summer for a year. It hasn't happened yet because it's not the end of summer yet!
Many pepole are already back at school, everyone else starts in a few weeks and we don't have any recent updates saying their anywhere close. They could happen at the end of summer, but I doubt it.
Not sure why you're bringing up school, considering school doesn't really have anything to do with summer or the hub... Anyway.. Literally 2 weeks ago I asked about it and I got the answer that it was still scheduled for the end of summer. Say what you will, but I'm going to trust it'll arrive by then.
Ehm, Are you guys sure the discussion of the arrival of the hub is relevant for the matter of getting a Mob Arena? I know a hub would make it easier, but is it that necessary?
I would like a Mob Arena. It's a cooperative way to just have more fun. High scores for # of rounds would be interesting to see, and it could be a cooperative competition for players. Something they could work together on, unlike SG.
As off topic as this is, this is what we are trying for. Regarding the suggestion. This has been requested many times over the years. Just run a search for mobarena It's generally never been accepted due to the fact it's extremely laggy, and generally has a ton of incompatibilities with other plugins we use. I'm personally against this a lot. If this is still wanted after the hub, I can discuss it with andrew, but expect a no.
To be fair, when there's a hub there will be less incompatibilities with plugins, considering it would be on its own server. It works for other servers in that way.
