A few suggestions that would help ( increase ) the activity of the server:
- Massive OPF unbans, if a player was banned for something that is related to OPF and is more than 3 months old ( perma banned ), to be unbanned ( if he made an appeal, doesnt matter what the appeal is ).
- Bring back the special sets, People has been spending alot of their time trying to find or to get them, now without them it doesnt matter, people are using scripts to take kits, they are loading 300 alts and getting PVs with kits every day so it doesnt matter if you kill someone or not, you wont get anything special.
- Prevent people from mass opening kits / gkits, Instead of the main kits being God Immo Eternal ... You can add some special set for example Crate Set that will be in Vote / Rare keys and will be better than the Kits one, its just so that people cant automate the process. In the past seasons Everyone is scripting Kits, its nothing new everyone has PVs with kits for nothing, but everyone can vote? if they vote, they can recive a Crate Set.
- Disallow Fly boosting again, since the last season Fly boosting has been allowed with the maximum of 2x, i still think that this was a bad idea, Fly boosting is used in Competitiv Factions but not in Casuals ( as it is Jartex and Pika ). Alot of people find it as disadvantage as you cant controll if he flys with 2x fly boost or 2.2.
- Bring back Dungeons, Not alot of people has made them or liked them, however it was a good way for the people to actually get some items, sets and even Value.
- A New PvP Arena! Instead of the same every season warp FPS or warp Soccer, bring something new. As for an example There was an OG HCF map that alot alot of people has liked to pvp at, it was called "The Hole", it was a warp that had a little safe zone and infront of it a hole, like a mine hole going down, people just jump and could climb around it, at the bottom there are some places people can get ganked, to escape they need to walk ( run ) between a tight spaces around the hole, there will be more ways to go and diff safezones.
- Reduce the strikes for Faction Wide Cheating, I have seen alot of factions trying to get somewhere in FTOP but getting disqualificated or reciving alot of strikes cuz of Faction Wide Cheating, reduce to be every 3 bans, 1 strike.
- Remove MCMMO, Bring back the Skills, people has used to grind alot and actually play rather than buying or asking from friends for MCMMO from their once kits or using their 1000th alt to get once kit for mcmmo, that is a reason why most of the new players cant get into the game, cause of people having already maxed MCMMO, as this ssn was 5000, a random player cannot get near that, meanwhile all OG players with 100 alts have a maxed MCMMO and are easily killing the new players.
- Reduce the Raiding Outpost walls, as of the moment there are too many walls on the raiding outpost base, with an Egap pvp and people allowing to make checkboxes, it is very hard for someone to actually raid it, so it would be better if the walls are maximum 4 or 5 chunks. Allowing players to have the chance to take it easier than before. ( Compare it with a Raiding Cannon that is 3c walls and they are not oceaned like Rpost, i think this is fair. )
- Add back Whale Pet.
- Make the Outposts and Koths more usefull, giving better rewards and actually helping for factions top. Outposts to have 3x Spawner booster, Money/Exp boost, Damage Outpost And Raiding Outpost. Koths should be giving more "Factions" Friendly rewards ( will explain if needed but the current rewards r terrible ).
- Raiding Outpost Opening time, every SOTW of every season the raidingoutpost is instantly open, people are spamming their alts to get Money and buy tnt to get it. Instead of that happening, let everyone have the same chance, Enable it 24h after SOTW. That will bring more people, to the warp and give the chance for more people to actually being able to take it.
- Add More Events, alot of people has joined and was apart of the PvP Event Before SOTW, the same thing could happen mid season, as for example there could be 1 big PvP Event during the season and 1 Big "Raiding" Event during the season, The "Factions" Event could be like the Bandits before, a warp with alot of bases that will give random loot when raided. Instead of making 1 big base and letting people side eachother, it would be better if every1 can have their own rewards.
- Remove the new minigames, Alot of people just spam the chat for them, making them useless.
- Make it more clear of what could be the grinding eco, Balance the Raiding Outpost, Warzone and Cane, this way that everyone will get almost the same as no matter what they grind.
- Change the Shield Lengt from 20h back to 18h, for Pika that is a E-Gap pvp server, 4 hours of raiding is almost nothing, everyone can easily defend by just eating Egap over and over and patch, adding 2 more extra hours like before will give the people the opportunety to actually have the chance to raid someone.
- Remove Slabs from bases, i see no point of people needing to use 200 slabbust cannon, this rule is really old and none allows slabs in the current days, alot of people dont use slabbust cannons so it will be easier for them to actually Raid someone rathar than saying "no point of trying".
- Reduce Counter Walls Limit, go back to 3 chunks of walls on counter, as much as the Raid Cannon has, that many will the base have too.
Overall stuff, Fix the most of the current bugs as there has been some bugs for seasons that happen, some at pvp and some at faction ( i will send more details to thiemo ).
