Changelog
New! A new spawn
With a new reset comes a new spawn. We have upgrades our spawn quite a bit, and it's a lot bigger now for you to explore while you're waiting in queue for your game. We also updated the spawn with 2 brand new features.
- Parkour at spawn
Tired of all that fighting, or are you waiting in a queue for yet another exciting ranked match? Hop on the parkour and try to beat the high score. You will now always have something to do! - New leaderboards
Within the spawn, you will find some new leaderboards. We hope with the new style of leaderboards we give everyone the chance and motivation to grind those wins and kills.
To make this reset feel even more awesome we took the time to replace all of the existing maps. We added a bunch of new Practice maps and got rid of the old ones, to make every match feel like something new again. We stripped maps from overdetailed things, and made them perfect for pvp.
New! PointsPoints are a new in-game currency that can be earned by winning ranked games. These points can be used to unlock the newly introduced cosmetics. Points can be found in the scoreboard on the right of your screen. Will you be the richest player on our PracticePvP server?
New! Cosmetics have been added
What is better than styling on your opponents than with some newly introduced cosmetics? We added 4 categories of cosmetics ready to be unlocked by playing.
Victory Messages
When winning a match a victory message will be announced in chat. These can be unlocked by purchasing them with points and from crates.
Chat Colors
Stand out in chat with some chatcolors. Chatcolors can be obtained using crates and by having a donator rank.
Bow Effects
Shoot out projectiles in extra style, make your arrows have an awesome projectile trail following your across the map bow shots. Or maybe even be an annoying bow spammer, but with some swag added on to it.
Tags
Tags are a suffix displayed in chat. Tags can be purchased from the store, found in crates and be unlocked by using points.
Updated! PvP Modes
Some new modes have been added to our brand new PracticePvP server.
The following modes have been newly introduced:
Spleef | Unranked mode |
BedWars | Ranked & Unranked mode |
Classic | Unranked Mode |
Archer | Ranked & Unranked mode |
We now have a total of 15 modes that you can play and grind. So hop on and start trying out these new modes.
Updated! Aesthetic OverhaulOne of the first things you will notice is our big aesthetic overhaul. Everything has been polished and given a much cleaner look. Your hotbar will be filled with useful items. All of the new features will be displayed in an easy-to-navigatable GUI. Here are the new things we have added for you:
- Leaderboards/Statistics
Healthy competition is needed for a fun experience. In your inventory, you will find a Enchantment Table that will open up your personal profile. In this profile, you will find statistics about your ELO for every ranked mode, statistics on how you performed in events, and an option to view all the leaderboards. In this leaderboards menu, you will find a Top 10 of the highest-ranked players for each available mode. - Settings
We have added new settings to allow you to personalize your experience even more.
Misc. Updates & Changes
We did our best to polish and fix as many existing bugs inside the PracticePvP server. We have looked through all the bug reports and managed to fix them. If you come across any bug with the new release, make sure to report them at our forums under the Bug Reports section.
Here are a few of the bugs we squished out:
Gold ranks can stop other peoples events
Sumo event breaking when someone leaves mid-game
Glitched water inside arenas
Being able to type /unranked during fights
Being able to use /koth during fights
Walking before a match starts
No damage resistance in sumo matches
....and much more!
