Ideas of a UHC?? Opinions please. by tel6331 January 18, 2015 at 12:01 AM UTC

So, I have been doing some thinking.... What would you like to see? Would you like to see a community event where we do a UHC? Both community and staff would take part and it will be mixed teams. Depending on how many people take part, we can have teams of 2 up to about 20? (Remember this is a work in progress so give your suggestions.) We want to do what you would like to see. So tell us <3

-Ya boi tel

GrapeSmoothie January 18, 2015 at 12:01 AM UTC

Maybe

SnowSX3 January 18, 2015 at 12:01 AM UTC

Sounds awesome!
Maybe a bit of variety with the teams.
Free for all, Team of 2, 3, and 4 should work well right?

Avicus UHC Season 1
Hype!!

EchoB January 18, 2015 at 12:01 AM UTC

Yea UHC sounds like a great idea!

Trexychan January 18, 2015 at 12:01 AM UTC

Sounds nice. Even though I can't stop falling off of high places and dying, it still sounds like a cool idea. :)

Porkyyy January 18, 2015 at 12:01 AM UTC

This is a great idea!

Perhaps we could do some sort of tournament.

D00ZiE January 18, 2015 at 12:01 AM UTC

As long as we can choose our teams or have team captains it sounds good :)

toketrain January 18, 2015 at 12:01 AM UTC

yesssss

tel6331 January 18, 2015 at 12:01 AM UTC

Thanks for the feed back guys. Keep it coming <3

_Avy January 18, 2015 at 1:01 AM UTC

I personally think its a great idea, not only will it be a lot of fun but should also attract more players.

MangoSmoothie_ January 18, 2015 at 1:01 AM UTC

Great idea!

SnowSX3 January 18, 2015 at 1:01 AM UTC

Random teams is a good idea, as it'll force players to work with people they normally wouldn't team with but I think now and then, players should be able to pick the teams.

Mathematical January 18, 2015 at 1:01 AM UTC

An event would be cool! But earlier today when I was playing elimination I had an idea of uhc as a gamemode for elimination? :O Can it be pls? I heard elimination was going to removed, I dont want that. So just improve it with more gamemodes like uhc, and possibly merge it with survival games?!?

Mooch24 January 18, 2015 at 1:01 AM UTC

Random teams would just mean awkward silence. Give people like a week in advance to rally a set number of team mates so everyone is able to enjoy themselves.

Nothing worse than being randomly placed on a team where everyone is silent but you :c

ProfessorUtonium January 18, 2015 at 1:01 AM UTC

If it's random teams it's good. We don't want sunrise and Emerald on the same team ;)

JUBBINATOR January 18, 2015 at 1:01 AM UTC

Wanna do a tournament? Or you wanna like do a random series of games?

MangoSmoothie_ January 18, 2015 at 1:01 AM UTC

I think random because Sethskye says, some teams could be too OP and for people who aren't on teamSpeak (like me) could feel unincluded in the challenge. I think 4 players to a team if they have to be picked

D00ZiE January 18, 2015 at 1:01 AM UTC

A team single elimination tourney would be rad ;D

JJTheGuy January 18, 2015 at 1:01 AM UTC

Mmm, I think this is a great idea, BUT we need to have sign ups. Skype or some way to talk efficiently and privatley is a NEED, and people who can't do that can be on special teams.

Emmaye January 18, 2015 at 1:01 AM UTC

Good Idea!!

Tynvale January 18, 2015 at 2:01 AM UTC

I think that this is a great idea that I would love to take part in!

mustafa January 18, 2015 at 2:01 AM UTC

It would be cool if we could have a model UHC like with the flans mod or something :D

SnowSX3 January 18, 2015 at 2:01 AM UTC

That would get too complication with all the mods involved.
I think vanilla UHC would be fine.

Yes, add a UHC gamemode, but give everyone compasses after ~30 minutes.

SnowSX3 January 18, 2015 at 2:01 AM UTC

That would make finding players a bit too easy...
Maybe a shrinking world boarder? This would force players to get closer to each other without ruining the fun of running into them by accident.

mustafa January 18, 2015 at 2:01 AM UTC

I don't think it would be that hard if we had a couple of mods :/

Sure, why not?

Depends on the total number of teams and the size of the world wouldn't it?

Tynvale January 18, 2015 at 2:01 AM UTC

Just a question, how would this work? Would it be a minigame on the server? Do you keep playing non-stop until one person/team left? Would it be it be a certain amount of time a day?

Dyspa January 18, 2015 at 2:01 AM UTC

Avicus is starting to look like Badlion and OCN, I like it even thought I don't play OCN because I'm banned.
I think this UHC should be made and you should add some plugins into it like for example, if someone logs of or times out, then he can join again (If he hasn't died nor the UHC has ended). Also, you should put a time-line 1 week before the UHC.
But.. now talking about the communication, if we let people choose their team, probably, their would be a big army full of people in TS, but.. if we make random teams, there would be a silence in every Skype call, TS room, etc so you should find an answer for this.

Free for All or Partner's I think would work best.

Camemes January 18, 2015 at 2:01 AM UTC

All aboard the UHC hype train!!!

JorgeMC January 18, 2015 at 7:01 PM UTC

I think hunger games from back I'm mczone and all the kits like stomper and ork cause that was always fun and is great with a lot of players

Yes a UHC would be cool. But wouldn't the more experienced players win? Would they spread it out?

SWEET_Johny January 19, 2015 at 6:01 AM UTC

Slave market was amazing. :3

source_route January 19, 2015 at 6:01 AM UTC

its ez. load a world. /world boarder xyz. dym, also it would be nice to do 1st to the end have an end portal in the center where u spawn but have no ender pearls filled in already. It mught turn into cth tho

Camemes January 19, 2015 at 9:01 AM UTC

The UHC idea is cool but maybe have it as a gamemode instead of selecting people that way everyone gets a go.

tel6331 January 19, 2015 at 7:01 PM UTC

We will base this idea around what you guys want so all ideas are welcomed and considered. Thanks everyone this is starting to take shape.

The idea of chosen teams or pick your teams will be developed a bit more since we need to uncover the pros and cons of all of these. However for the people who aren't experienced have no idea what is happening, they can be paired with staff or more experienced players.

Yes, having a mix and match would definitely work out.

We would need:
~Team communication system, weather TS or /msg, or just a team chat plugin.
~List of all contenders so we could make teams, if we chose partners.
~A map, maybe get the Map Team to get a roll on with that.
~And a set of times for everyone to see: On the forums; broadcasts in game and maybe even messages at hubs.
~Staff meeting to discuss the whole layout of a UHC, if it was to happen.
~And of course a ton of cows...

Ok, maybe not the last one ;D

MerlinMaster January 19, 2015 at 9:01 PM UTC

My Ideas for UHC:

ProfessorUtonium January 19, 2015 at 9:01 PM UTC

My Ideas for UHC:
  • Custom made biomes
  • Randomly placed/generated ruins of structures
  • Some new custom UHC gamemodes
  • Custom plugins to help with good gameplay
+1 
Also there would need to be:
- Randomly Generated Teams
- Teamchat
- 3 minute before the game starts and before you get tpd to the world you have time to see up a way of communication. 
- Teamspeak private chats for UHC

Jahaj January 19, 2015 at 9:01 PM UTC

I feel people like me would get not that good teammates and we would lose fast, so we should definitely randomly assign teams.

Emmaye January 19, 2015 at 10:01 PM UTC

I personally don't like chosen teams, it can turn out to be unfair most of the time like others have stated before.

tel6331 January 20, 2015 at 11:01 AM UTC

Right so I guess we will do random teams and we will put all the names of players attending in a document and then pair them up to decide the teams. Other gamemodes will be implemented such as "SLAAAAAAAAAAAAVVVVEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEMAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRKEEEEEEEEEET" :P

Iron January 20, 2015 at 12:01 PM UTC

Would this be hosted on Avicus, or on an external server?

EinfachNalor January 20, 2015 at 1:01 PM UTC

What exactly is UHC?

Trexychan January 20, 2015 at 1:01 PM UTC

What exactly is UHC?
Survival except with no natural regen. In order to regain health you either need to make regen, health pots or eat golden apples.

RightSide January 20, 2015 at 4:01 PM UTC

Sounds Great Avicus UHC yes ! :)

Trexychan January 20, 2015 at 4:01 PM UTC

I like the idea of a UHC. To make it more interesting I think instead of default world generation have a map with custom terrain, structures, biomes. Just to make things more interesting. :)

ProfessorUtonium January 20, 2015 at 4:01 PM UTC

Custom terrain/custom mobs/custom weapons/custom biomes/custom everything!

Trexychan January 20, 2015 at 4:01 PM UTC

Custom terrain/custom mobs/custom weapons/custom biomes/custom everything!
The idea of having random villages with villagers w/ custom trades sounds nice. Like trade 20 gold or something for 3 gold apples.

Rainstruck January 21, 2015 at 12:01 AM UTC

This sounds like a really good idea. I think that the best way to do an ultra hardcore would be to install a mod that creates clans and you can add people to a clan. That is just my personal opinion, but I think that clans would be the best option so you could know who is on what team.

Here is a link to a clan mod incase you are wondering..

lithp January 24, 2015 at 6:01 PM UTC

Team of 4? or 2... I'd prefer team of 4 do :P And chosen teams. I don't want to end up on some crap team like Thecalined's team or sumtin...

Maybe a poll on the Forums, where you can join/create your own custom group of four players?

tel6331 January 25, 2015 at 10:01 AM UTC

Alright. All ideas are noted so we can make this the best experience we can for you guys!
