Hive specifically wanted to focus on permanent content in 2022, as they’ve mostly been ‘hated’ for too many limited-time updates over the last few years and some main games have received updates this year, but mostly PvP games haven’t. As a server, it can be difficult to update games regularly while not neglecting other things like general development, but this is what this suggestion is for! 🐝

One way to provide all players with updates would be global updates that affect all games. Good examples of this would be [Quests V2](https://trello.com/c/UMz750VU/23-quests-v2), an update that has been on the roadmap for more than three years already, and [Achievements](https://forum.playhive.com/t/achievement-suggestion/35831). Also I think that more global updates after upcoming game updates such as Block Party and Treasure Wars Seasons would make a great addition to the server!

Another advantage of this approach would be that all games receive an update about every quarter and you would no longer have to wait one year or longer for your favorite game to receive one. 🙂

Do not get me wrong - this suggestion is not just about implementing mentioned update ideas, more to focus on global updates that affect all games in the near future.

Great idea! Voted  
Edit: as a player who plays almost all games on hive I would love for all games to get updated every quarter year as it would bring so much more content 🙂 :blush:

I must say you are the king of formatting posts 🤣

But related to this specific post, I can definitely get behind new Quests or Achievements. Another possible global update would be to update more of their GUIs to match the style of the Compass, Games, and Map Voting. The most commonly used menus that still use the old GUI style might be the Quest menu, the Gifting menu and the Hub Cosmetics menu.

How do you even keep track of their updates :flushed:

Anyway I’m voting since they didn’t really do much with their promise on permanent stuff just hub cosmetics and certain tweaks and mini updates for their games.
