Clavus Posted July 7, 2012 Share Posted July 7, 2012 After I'm done judging the build contest entries tomorrow, the server is switching back to Faction Wars, however there are some changes to the game this time around.GUERILLA FACTION WARSPlayers can no longer place (or break) furnaces, brewing stands or enchantment tables.However, these special blocks can still be found on specific places on the map. You'll need to fight for control!Faction power per player is now 4 points. You lose all 4 points when you die (minimum -4)! Regeneration is still 0.2 point per minute.Max faction power is 16, so more than 4 players in your faction won't allow you to claim more land (however they can help maintain your faction power if someone dies)The map pre-generated using the custom 'Tropic' world generator. 2000 radius WorldBorder. Important locations will be marked on the live map. Corby, Baron Baconeer and martinblsl 3 Quote Link to comment
marcus6x6 Posted July 7, 2012 Share Posted July 7, 2012 (edited) I Myself think this is an bad idea... didn't like the sound of these rules at all. but what the hell, Who am i to judge?ill give it a try!Since 1.3 is still pretty far away i would suggest the ordinary faction rules.

Dr.Minky Posted July 7, 2012 Share Posted July 7, 2012 (edited) I already didSame responseIs a temporary thing until next map as an experiment? If so, maybe you should say that in the post Edited July 7, 2012 by Dr.Minky Quote Link to comment
martinblsl Posted July 7, 2012 Share Posted July 7, 2012 i think this is not a good idea, but it's not my choice sadly.but in the hot spots with furnaces will there be brewingstands and enchantment tables or just furnaces also are they all public? and is it a safezone. 101spud 1 Quote Link to comment
Toxik Posted July 7, 2012 Share Posted July 7, 2012 What's the point in the shop item where you can get a furnace, brewing stand and enchantment table? Also will this be in any of the new worlds? Quote Link to comment
Hundred2 Posted July 7, 2012 Share Posted July 7, 2012 Maybe you should make the furnaces unclaimable, so they become spots of great violence. Quote Link to comment

Mrturbotrio Posted July 7, 2012 Share Posted July 7, 2012 NEIN NEIN NEIN NEIN !!! Stupid idea. But Okay, no MrTurbo this map. Quote Link to comment
awesomeo_5000 Posted July 7, 2012 Share Posted July 7, 2012 Everyone knows that everyone will play this map. It's three weeks, most of our player base consider suicide when the server's down for more than two hours. Whilst on paper it might not excite you all, why don't you hold off making a decision until you've played it? The entire dynamics of raiding are going to change, you're going to have to think (what!?) about your base design and location, because one wrong move leaves you very exposed. People are going to be stuck in poor armour, you're going to have to fight for the right to party smelt iron for tools to mine diamonds. And even if you manage that, there's no fancy enchantments or potions to make you more powerful than the next guy. Try it out. If you still think it's crap, fair enough. At least you've gave it a go and have weight behind your opinion. Quote Link to comment
Baron Baconeer Posted July 7, 2012 Share Posted July 7, 2012 IT'S NEW AND STRANGE SO I MUST HATE ITFaction wars with no proper armor and no enchantments? Shut up and take my money. Kefeus and awesomeo_5000 2 Quote Link to comment

EDIT: we might have a problem to get an iron pick to find diamonds.... Edited July 7, 2012 by Toxik Quote Link to comment
awesomeo_5000 Posted July 7, 2012 Share Posted July 7, 2012 Yeah could be an idea to temporarily disable a couple of the shop items for now. Iron armour will be a commodity worth far more than 200gc. Quote Link to comment
Luke Nukem Posted July 7, 2012 Share Posted July 7, 2012 Such a bad idea, yet everyone will still play? Stop complaining. Quote Link to comment
Clavus Posted July 7, 2012 Author Share Posted July 7, 2012 Furnace Towers will be quite abundant, with 20+ of them scattered around the map. They're located in a warzone chunk so you'll have to build around the surrounding area if you want your private furnaces. Otherwise, prepare to defend yourself while you're cooking. Making alliances (or splitting up your faction) might lead to more effective strategies. Quote Link to comment
Dr.Minky Posted July 7, 2012 Share Posted July 7, 2012 (edited) What about peaceful factions?Peaceful factions just straight out wouldn't work with this, but then if you were to give them the power to place furnaces then it could easily be abusedDisable peaceful factions if you've not already Edited July 7, 2012 by Dr.Minky Quote Link to comment
Reap3r Posted July 7, 2012 Share Posted July 7, 2012 When will the server change? Quote Link to comment
Clavus Posted July 7, 2012 Author Share Posted July 7, 2012 Server's changing in 15 minutes. Quote Link to comment
Arild_ Posted July 7, 2012 Share Posted July 7, 2012 Will the extra gc power you can buy count on this map or will 4 power be max no matter what? Quote Link to comment
Clavus Posted July 7, 2012 Author Share Posted July 7, 2012 The items should still boost your own player power. I'm not sure if it boosts the 16 max power per faction.Also, note that I will be walking around the map from time to time hunting players with my bow and arrow. You can try to kill me to get some nice loot Quote Link to comment
Arild_ Posted July 7, 2012 Share Posted July 7, 2012 The hunting seems like a fun addition But will all the perks/consumables be available? Being able to buy full iron or the 16 iron blocks package seems too overpowered for this map in my opinion when furnaces are unplaceable. Quote Link to comment
Clavus Posted July 7, 2012 Author Share Posted July 7, 2012 You make a good point, so I will temporarily hide the Batch of Iron, Full Raiding Gear and Interior Design shipments from public. If you already bought them you should still be able to use them. Quote Link to comment
