(I know this is prolly a dupe, but this is really my deep opinions and my message to the staff before they ignore this and close the topic)
SG didn’t die off completely from the game overall dying off on other servers, the game also died off because the hive didn’t update it in over 2 years, and hive shows no signs of updating it soon after they said they didn’t have plans to update it anymore.
This is a terrible decision, the game isn’t going to completely revive due to one update but the team can’t say it wont do good without trying at least 1 more update for survival games. SG is also a pvp gamemode which should contribute to 1 of the 6 or 7 pvp gamemodes that hold most of the players hive has, putting it to waste is dead space and resources, but then fully removing it will also take away a good chuck of players.
What should be added? A closing circle so that the game is fast paced, which makes it a key for getting more players because there will be constant action going on, take galaxite’s version of the game and see the success the game has for its standards due to the zone. More people would play the game because of this and wont get board.
Some other stuff to adjust so the game would make sense and be great is removing deathmatch (since zones would be added) as well as increasing the armor rng (removing leather armor and some chain pieces to add enchanted iron and diamond pieces), add launch pads that can make the player fly (assuming it doesn’t make the anticheat woke), and also potentially adding enchantment books and tables so when people find books in chests they can find a table to enchant their gear, preferably more easier enchantments should be added so ppl will be able to enchant and know what to use with it.
My main point is there’s a playerbase behind the game that hive doesn’t see, this is one of my last attempts to help raise attention but it’s hard to do when the team isn’t the same anymore and no one is able to wake up and turn on the thinking helmets. I hope to see this as the next update in plan after the skywars more kits update, assuming that ever gets out to the few people who asked for it.
