Adding back Skywars classic gives Skywars a less sweaty, faster way to play skywars.
I personally absolutely loved classic, and many others did as well. With it removing ores, and having less overpowered armor, leading to shorter and more fast paced games for advanced players.
Additionally, having really good armor really easily in normal skywars leads to this order in 90 percent of games. 1. Get loot at island and rush mid with other people. 2. Get full diamond and kill other people, and then one of you runs away for the entire game. 3. Eventually one of you dies due to the void or ran out of redstone. It is also impossible to get full diamond in classic, so it takes fewer hits to kill someone so that is also why classics armor concept is much much better.
Furthermore to the redstone aspect, getting redstone gives you 15 HEARTS, 17 WITH A GOLDEN APPLE WITH EFFECTS. Considering you can enchanted armor and diamond swords, this stalls the game immensely. I get that it is for healing after a fight, but redstone is way to accessible to make it fair. Adding classic back gives you the opportunity to get quick and fast kills and win or lose games really quickly and they almost have no room to heal, neither do you, so it makes it more intense and a battle down to sheer skill.
That is all I really wanted to say, if you differ my view, I would love to know why. And I hope Hive views this and takes it into consideration. Thank you!
I’m pretty sure Mega is now permanent, it came back so that SW Classic can receive improvements and adjustments, I don’t think Mega would be removed since it does have a higher average player count over 200 now
Aws shucks, I miss Rpyale and I wish it wasn’t limited time. The memories were better than in Treasure Wars IMO. It may have been my favourite game until Bedwars
YES, please bring back SkyWars classics! It was such a fun fast paced game that was very enjoyable. It was by far one of my favorite games the Hive Games had! I still thoroughly enjoy SkyWars, but SkyWars classics was just different in its own unique fun way!
They add crafting (How can this be called “SkyWars: Classic” if it’s missing one of the fundamental features that is missing from Hive’s Lucky Ore SkyWars modes?)
They remove the godforsaken respawn totem (Who thought adding this in was a good idea in the first place? It’s worse than the Void Walker in kits because at least in that mode it wasn’t down to chance for you to have the ability to respawn. In Classic, it’s literally exactly that, and it just completely destroys the pacing whenever someone gets it)
They make andesite and crumbling cobblestone the only blocks being distributed in chests (I absolutely HATE the inventory clutter that comes from the extra blocks. No more than two should be distributed in chests in my opinion)
They make items like potions, ender pearls, snowballs, spyglasses, extra tools, and wind charges less common (Unstackable items especially, they are just as bad if not worse than the extra blocks for cluttering my inventory)
Fix the weird armor balancing (You either get really good armor or really bad armor at the start of the game, and there’s no in between)
Bring over the rest of the maps (Which they’ll likely do, but only having a few maps available made this mode get boring fast)
Limit the stronger bows to only a few uses (With how strong they are, they can be very easily abused by spammers)
If they do those things, then I’d consider it a decent addition to Hive SkyWars.
I did not like Classic whatsoever, but it seems like others enjoyed it more than me. Since I want Mob Game back, I think Skywars Classic could go right with it!
This statement if fair, I’m with you on crafting. But I feel like a lot of players will get confused on it and then immediately get attacked by someone with max gear.
TBH, it’s pretty balanced. It’s a risk to get it, but it’s a good reward! Besides, you only keeo your armor, so chances are you might just cook yourself. ALSO, VOID WALKER LETS YOU KEEP EVERYTHING.
Maybe, but that goes against your crafting idea…? You won’t get wood easy enough to craft…
Nonononononono they are good as they are especially wind charges :l
Just go to the chest on the side islands, it’s not like your gonna immediately fight 2s in the game warmup…
They already did this for solo maps and I’m pretty sure squads…
Fair…ish? Idk, that can be up to everyone else lol
If it’s an item obtained purely by luck AND it goes against the one-life rule that’s pretty much been set in stone, then it’s by no means balanced whatsoever. Whenever it’s present in a match, it adds nothing fun. It just makes the game drag out for longer than it needs to, and it just straight up allows for whoever gets it to cheat a fight if they end up losing.
Also, there’s a very fine line between an item that is high risk, high reward; and an item that just straight up breaks the game.
I mean, a large majority of the maps have trees on them. I know a couple don’t like Europa, but maybe for the maps that don’t have trees or easy ways to access wood, they could distribute the planks. But for maps that have more plentiful wood, there would be no need to distribute planks in chests.
They aren’t good if they just sit there and make my inventory a pain in the neck to organize properly, especially the unstackable items. I can get by the stackable items like wind charges, ender pearls, ect, but the unstackable items need to be made less common, specifically potions. There’s way too much of them in every game. Either way, I still think those items need to be toned down a bit, since they can make fights too chaotic. Ender Pearls straight up shouldn’t be common at all since everyone uses them to run away and stall the game.
