PVP World Takes Away From the Game

pvp world will die mark my words...:(

Nope, it will start serving its purpose. Right now it's kinda like in pussy multiworld servers.

i still say it's too small is all. It's like when i play a FPS i like big maps. It's not so i can hide and play by myself it's so i have some wiggle room, a chance to duck away and assess the situation. There is no chance to use tactics in such a small space no chance build traps when every one can see you. If it's going to be so small there would be no need for a list of who's there since you could search the whole surface area in 10 minutes. At such a size this could end up being a single biome thus negating the point of reset on updates, as a way to find new map features with out a 10K trip.

It might be too small, but I suggest that we try it first, and when we decide we need it bigger, let's make it bigger.

[RevStoningpot]

sure adjust as needed. May i suggest we wait till 1.5 and start a new map with the new changes?

[FoSchnizzleTheSecond]

Or, we could have it be a built place. Like, have people build structures and hidey holes, or whatever, so that you can use some fancy tictacs and all.

This is true, I didn't account for making traps and such. Maybe make it 400x400?

-.- What's the worst that can happen? We have to switch back?

Traps just make it easier to snare people in a 100 length. You're not going to be standing around 30 people and decide I want to make a trap.

[Yukar9]

While you can see the entire map if positioned correctly, the amount of time people will be doing this I think will be quite limited. Perhaps make it 300x300 then? I seriously doubt that there'll be enough people to populate the entire map at all times. I can't imagine there being that big a probability of something attacking you while you're building a trap.

Reset will happen as we upgrade to 1.5 at the earliest. I have quite a bit of coding to do, and the changes can't happen until I'm finished with that, so it might not happen until a little after 1.5. We'll see.

Sounds like a good place to start
