Hey all! Today, I was thinking about old maps that I used to play on skywars and realized a lot of them aren't apart of the current skywars map rotation. For example, one of my favorite maps I believe it was called "Cuniclo", (it had a huge hollow circular cave as the middle with an enchant table at the top) isn't apart of the current rotation. I'm sure there are others that I'm forgetting too, but that one sticks out the most. Anyways, my suggestion is that a new staff sub-team could be created that would be in charge of minigame maps. Essentially once a month they would "update" minigame maps. They wouldn't even have to be new maps either! I know there are a plethora of skywars maps. This would give skywars a fresh feel for all of the concurrent players. I've heard lots of talk about a minigame overhaul coming this summer but I see this as just a minor update to keep minigames fresh rather than an overhaul. I know I focused more on skywars (because I am primarily a skywars player) but I feel like this could be applied to all minigames, although cake wars and murder mayhem may need some more maps to be built in general. Do you guys think there are any cons about this idea? Edit// If you can find a video of the map Cuniclo please link it at the end of your post thanks! Thanks for reading! :) -Tris
hey! i completely agree with this, especially if the maps are already created. it would be nice to have more maps added into the rotation because i usually find myself playing on the same 3 or 4 maps continuously in a cycle. even if the old maps had to have a few updates added to them, i feel like it really would be worth it in the long run since we’ve been playing on the same maps for quite a while. i’ve noticed that over time, quite a few people have submitted fairly decent maps but they still have not been implemented into the game. i understand that MCC is focusing on the anti cheat and other things that are more necessary, but hopefully with the rumor of an upcoming mini-game revamp, we will see some new maps along with the better anti cheat :)) (i’m adding a bit more oops) so since those are some pros, here are a few cons: if MCC were to reuse some of their old maps, people who have been playing SW for a long time could be irritated that MCC is using old maps instead of using new ones because it’s always nice to have something that is brand new. also, if SW were to add newer maps, im sure that players from other minigames will immediately want new maps in their games also. for example, murder mayhem has had the same maps for a long time and i don’t think that there has been any submissions for newer ones so i doubt that MM will get any new maps soon, which could anger some players. if that makes sense lol
Hey Trippie! Thanks for your input! I have been playing MCC for almost 5 years now, as an older player, I don't think any of the other "older players" would be irritated but rather appreciative and nostalgic (plus it wouldn't solely be old maps, they would be mixed in with new ones). I see another concern you had was that players would want maps for other minigames too which is completely valid. I know MCC has many SG maps that are currently out of rotation too. As far as murder mayhem goes there are currently 3 map submissions but they would likely need to build some new ones which would require a lot more hard work and time obviously, so this might be something they want to focus on during the minigame overhaul. Not to hate on Murder Mayhem either (it's actually one of my favorite games at the moment) but they get significantly fewer players than SG or skywars. However, MCC has a big community which means they have lots of talented and creative players, so I'm sure they can put together a build team to make some more maps for all minigames (if they haven't already).
Hello! I agree that the server should pay more attention to minigames, and particularly the maps. Maybe there will be an update to the map selection when the minigame revamp rolls around. I don't believe that there should be an entire sub-team dedicated to it, although if the admins and/or senior moderators could get in a meeting once a month to discuss changes to maps, maps to add, and maps to remove, that would be a great way to keep the server updated and high quality. This would also inspire people to build for minecraft central, since it always says who built the map whenever people play it. If people see that their map submissions are actually used, there will be a lot more excited builders for the server. As far as pictures/videos of the Cuniculo skywars map, this is all I found, on the MCC wiki: https://mc-central.fandom.com/wiki/Cuniculo.
Thanks for the feedback creeper! I also really appreciate the link, that map brings back good memories. I'll expand more on why I think there should be a sub-team dedicated. Having a dedicated sub-team would allow the staff team to get a more accurate update on what the community wants. The team would be composed of staff members who like to play lots of minigames (and builders if they ever decide to add that rank back). I think Fajoszz would be an excellent person that could be apart of this sub-team as I always see him in minigames. As far as building goes there would be no need to build new maps as there are already lots of maps built (as far as SG and skywars goes). I'm simply suggesting they add in some of the older maps to the rotation. Also, many people are inspired to build and that's great, but if it isn't a quality build it won't be used. MCC has a vast community with many great builders whom I'm sure would love to help out if they had a chance to.
Hey there iTristan As someone who is pretty new to skywars on mcc I'd love to see a few new maps. the one with the cave sounds pretty sick aswell. I think Newplayers would love some of those older maps aswell. I don't know if there was any specific reason for these maps to get removed but I'd love to see them. Enjoy your day :D
As an older player, I definitely think the newer players would enjoy some of the older maps! Cuniclo was a super fun map that I wish more people got to experience. As for the reason these maps were removed it's likely they wanted to just update and refresh the feel of skywars. -Tris
