Getting Tired Of Avicus by ViolentBoo August 6, 2014 at 1:08 PM UTC

No this is not a goodbye post for everyone to see, so keep your tears away for this. Yes, I am getting tired of avicus, hell this is a really good server. But I can't forgive myself for not thinking back to Mczone and how fun it was compared to Avicus. I know one thing that the server did wrong.


Why did you guys fix things that weren't broken?


When avicus came out:
Why did we remove Nexus?
Why were the kits changed in HG?
Why aren't kits purchasable by themselves, rather than just ranks?
Why were some maps removed from Nebula?
Why aren't maps randomized in HG?

When avicore came out:
Why were the kits changed in Nexus? (Except tank and heavy those are just retarded)
Why in the love of GOD are TDM matches are happening in Nebula? Just make them nexus.


And many more.

I'm just saying that I want to keep going on this server but all I see here is frustration.

Well, Nebula needs TDMs for maps like Rapture. The way the map is designed, it wouldn't play well as a DTM.

Other than that, i agree with everything else here.

TDM should be JUST for Nexus, i never played on MCZone but i miss it...

You don't get it. Nexus is TDM with kits. TDM is just TDM with block placing and breaking. 

I plan on making a TNT map that's just like that. Just gratuitous explosions and TNT being hurled at the enemy and you not being able to build in the void! 

The only way to cross is to Icarus haha!

Anyway, i went off topic there, yeah, pretty much what i said on the first two sentences.

Avicus is lagging hard to.

Yeah, I don't see why Nebula TDm is a problem..
I love how you can break and build blocks to your advantage and how everything is fair due to no one having better kits than you because they've played for longer.
I feel like Nexus should have a TDM where you can't break blocks on one wall and a TDM where you can on the other.

Why did we remove Nexus? I think it had to be recoded...? Not really too sure.

Why were the kits changed in HG? From what I remember, they were pretty bland. Nothing interesting that attracted people.

Why aren't kits purchasable by themselves, rather than just ranks? Directly violates the EULA. It also encourages players to try all that Avicus has to offer instead of playing the only one they spent money on.

Why were some maps removed from Nebula? Most likely due to poor gameplay or lag.

Why aren't maps randomized in HG? Not sure why you're complaining about this. Instead of a somewhat broken world as they were in MCZone, they are decent and play the exact same without the bugs and glitches. Not to mention the nifty things placed around the map such as the large pumpkins or the altered biomes you really won't find elsewhere.

Why were the kits changed in Nexus? The kits are now rather balanced and you can actually counter each kit. Considering back when you could kill literally anyone with kit medic.

Why in the love of GOD are TDM matches are happening in Nebula? Just make them nexus. Considering this entire thread is based about what Avicus did wrong compared to MCZone, and this is one of the core features kept from MCZone...

The only TDM I like is Gladiator.

Balanced!? Are you kidding me? Starting Kit  is an Iron sword, 30 levels later, it's a Diamond sword. Who do you think is going to win in the fight? Not to mention Snowman is just retarded. If you get hit with a snowball you automatically die.

Why wasn't this included before EULA?

Not to mention the maps that are a revamped version of original maps are just really shitty installments like Senex 2 or 3. Just keep the first best one.

I remember you were a wizard at mini game suggestions. You had some nice stuff before Avicore.

What happened? Why did you stop? We have 2 empty places in the lobby, 1 probably reserved for an old McZone game (which better be the same as it was before Avicus). 

Pls more games

Stop thinking about the old days. Guess what? They're gone. You can't get them back. All this nostalgia is pointless. In 6 months you'll be looking back and referring now to the good old times.

Nexus is relatively balanced. I mean yeah if its a barbarian vs. warrior the barbarian has the advanatge. But come on man, I still get rekt as barbarian (and 2/3v1'ed)

You can still get teamed on as freezer, and even if you get frozen, your teammates could kill the freezer.

At least none of the OP kits were brough over.

I sort of have to agree with you on the maps one though.

Senex 1 was the GREAT
Senex 2 was ok
Senex 3 was ok as a map but didn't feel like a Senex map

Rendezvous 1 was GREAT
Rendezvous 2 was actually GREAT
Rendezvous 3 had the same problem as Senex 3

mhmm it was

I would like the idea: TDM+DTM. You breack a monument, but you cant place bloocks or breack (I think there's one right now, but don't remember the name :P)

Don't comment if you have nothing to add to the discussion.

Senex 3 and Rendezvous 3 only focused on aesthetics.
That's why the sucked so bad.

Yeah but the old days where better
