    What he meant was when you hav enough points, then you can use your credits and rank up. It’s like prisons, first you earn, then you pay to rank up.
     
  2. Hi,

    I definitely agree with this idea. This is an idea I wanted for a long time. The minigames on the server is currently not extremely competitive, therefore adding a competitive edge to the game would be a wonderful idea. The game could definitely use en elo system when ranking players similar to that of other Potion-PvP servers. I fully believe this is a useful suggestion and should be implemented in the near future!

    I really like this idea to be honest! I'm an extremely competitive skywars player and could always use a bit more motivation to continue playing. That being said, a lot of players use the monthly leaderboard as a show of "skill" . Still an interesting concept :grinning:
     
  4. I love the idea of a ranked system being added to MCC!

    Firstly, I think this would add more of a sense of competitiveness to players who playing things like skywars/survival games.
    I would love to see this implemented because as someone who likes competitive game-play I could see myself enjoying this. Now there are a few drawbacks from this of course.

    Firstly let's talk about Hackers. Minecraft Central is a great server all around, but everyone can agree on one thing; The Hacker Issue. Although the server has an Anti-Cheat plugin, sometimes it feels as if it isn't doing it's not doing is job. One thing I fear is that Hackers would ruin the ranked system as they could easily get up in ranked making it harder for other players to score good placements as they are being wiped by hackers.

    Secondly I would like to talk about the perks. Perks are a good thing that MCC added, although I feel like if they are going to add a ranked, they should also invest in a kit type system. Where before the game the player has an option to chose a specified class/kit. I will leave an example below as what I mean to this.

    Ex] Class: Archer
    Ability: Start game with a bow and 3 arrows, every 30 seconds gain an extra arrow.

    Now what I would enjoy from a ranked system is the idea of having other players who are the same skill as you fighting in a same arena. Because that's how people would improve the most. When put up to people in games sometimes I feel like I do not improve due to the fact that some games just seem to easy while others can be difficult. So I feel like adding a ranked system to minigames would help people improve their skills in game.

    One thing I would like to see added as well as a ranked system is a type of tournament system where once a month there is a ranked competition where you play for something such as in-game items or even MCC store credit. I think that this would also motivate players to play and improve their skill so that they are able to participate in these challenges.

    oop. hØi. even thought i don’t really agree with the idea of ranked minigames, i really like this reply and the ideas that you shared in it. However, it kinda seems like you just want to revamp skywars/change mcc skywars which is something that is overdue (revamp, not changing sw) — if ranked mode were to be added i like your idea that perks n’ such should be discarded and then that’s when kits could make an appearance. but again, that just doesn’t seem like mcc skywars. it seems almost like a hypixel with better chests or something.
    this reply is kinda all over the place.
    tl;dr great idea if a ranked mode were to make an appearance, but it just wouldn’t 100% seem/feel like ‘mcc skywars

    I guess MCC could do a trail run of a ranked system and see if the community overall likes it or doesn't like it. Also, with the idea of kits, I think if MCC were to add kits then would have to make them fair so they wouldn't give you a significant advantage over others. Otherwise, the kits would just be "pay to win" essentially.

    Thanks for the comments

    So basically its a bad idea to me but the reason why I say that the 100 unranked games is a bad idea I think there would be a lack of players playing ranked like ankh said above. Then if you remove the 100 unranked games then the hackers can just hack on ranked and ruin everyone's rank or placement on the mcc leaderboard. Honestly I just say stick with the regular leaderboard based off of wins in total I think that is the coolest leaderboard nice and simple.

    Have a great day

    It doesn't have to be 100 games. That was just an example.

    Yea we were thinking just 20 or 25 games. Hackers won’t be able to go that far before getting punished.

    Hey,

    I really like this idea because I do enjoy playing against others at my level. But I feel like if this is going to be an addition to mini-games, there won't be enough players queuing for certain ranked games (especially higher ranks).

    Yes, that seems to be the main problem with a ranked system for minigames.

    I think having ranked minigames is a great idea! I feel right now unless there is a hacker the games are very easy and there is not much competition anymore. There might not be enough people to fill a ranked and non ranked skywars/survival games match, and if you add this I don't think it's going to stop hackers from joining ranked games instead of non ranked games. But i'm sure our staff might be able to figure something clever out and add something making it beneficial to play ranked minigames instead of non ranked.

    I really like this idea for ranked minigames, would it also include Capture the flag because that seems like it would be fun to play ranked

    Hey!
    Thank you for making this post. I love your idea and I'd love to see ranked minigames getting added in the future. Also having elo for minigames would be fun as you would get matched against people at the same level as you. Once again thank you for suggesting this. I'm a +1 to your idea.
    Have a nice day

    Personally, I don't believe MCC is ready to support a ranked minigames community. The anticheat needs to be improved and there also needs to be a way for staff to join ongoing minigame lobbies in order to spectate. They also need to be able to freeze cheaters in order to screenshare them, because in ranked matches there is much more incentive to cheat, even if that incentive is just a number that doesn't mean anything.

    When those things are improved, I believe MCC could pull off a ranked skywars mode. Games would fill faster and wait times would be much lower. People would also have another incentive to play skywars, rather than only playing for their own enjoyment/to level up. I know of many skilled skywars players on this server, and would love to see them be able to climb the leaderboards!

    Thanks for the suggestion :)

    This actually seems like a cool idea. It would give people an incentive to play minigames more. As with having to play and win 100 games, I say something more along the lines of like 25 would be reasonable. +1 on the idea though.​

    Thanks for your comment. Glad you like the idea. The playing the 100 games was just a example, it was not a concrete idea.
