To 1.7.10! by Xvius August 10, 2016 at 9:08 AM UTC

I hear lots of people saying that they prefer 1.7 better. Many people say that 1.8's pvp performance is not good enough. And.... I do think that 1.7.10 is way better than 1.8. 

Is there any possibility that this server will change to version 1.7.10? If so, I'm gonna.... Whatever.

no

I'm pretty sure we aren't downgrading to 1.7.

Xvius August 10, 2016 at 9:08 AM UTC

Ah... I see

ImRaging August 10, 2016 at 9:08 AM UTC

Nope

This must be the most controversial topic ever on Minecraft servers.

If you want to play pure 1.7 pvp then go to dedicated pvp servers.

Avicus can't ever go back to 1.7.10, the developers would have to scrap years of work, and by now a vast majority of the player base have moved on and accepted 1.8 pvp. We can't always stay on an old version, we must keep updating because it's proven that a majority of players are on the latest version.

wont happen unfortunately

Numberz_ August 10, 2016 at 10:08 AM UTC

I love 1.7 but we can't go back to it. ;c We would be left behind by other servers if we did it.

In the future y'all  will miss 1.9

The way I see it is that Avicus is a pvp based server, but not everything consists on the actual melee itself. There are a lot more factors, like how fast you are, what type of player you are(rusher, defender, etc). I think avicus is doing just fine at the moment with 1.8 and 1.9 support, and as Jack/Auratixx said, if you want 1.7.10, visit pvp based servers, like 1v1 servers.

At the minute, we run 1.8, and allow 1.9 and 1.10 players to connect, which is pretty crucial. There is no way we can downgrade to 1.8, considering all of our plugins are on 1.8 and it would take way to long for the devs to do it and they have a lot more important things to work on. The obvious answer is a protocol hack for 1.8 to allow 1.9 and 10 connections but also 1.7. However, I am pretty sure this is not possible, unless we upgrade to 1.10 which means like pvp is like it is in 1.10. 

1.8 isn't that bad, at least I am pretty sure we aren't upgrading anymore anytime soon.

1.7 is great, I think in 1.8, Mojang added some stupid leftClickCounter, which means not every click registers, because of the counter, you have to wait for the counter to reach 0, then your click registers.

Why does everyone hate progress?

its not that we hate progress, its the progress is shit (1.9  & 1.10) pvp is literally aids.

flyofff August 10, 2016 at 4:08 PM UTC

I miss 1.4
xD

What if you make 1.9 and 1.10 PvP just like 1.8? :O

It doesn't work like that though

Reducing the cooldown time?

DaFrozenBlaze August 10, 2016 at 4:08 PM UTC

If you can make it exactly like it, it would be amazing
But can you really

Legoche August 10, 2016 at 4:08 PM UTC

1.9 will literally kill the competitive scene, look at OCN. I can't imagine I'll stay around if we update and a lot of us will leave.

Tazz August 10, 2016 at 4:08 PM UTC

Does OCN 1.9 really feel like 1.8?

dentmaged August 10, 2016 at 6:08 PM UTC

Make 1.8, 1.9 and 1.10 be like 1.7, then I'll be happy.

im not the one that is dev but from what i understand i dont think that you can change stuff like the hit detection, there are some stuff that are already built in the version

You can. But it requires editing the server jar A LOT and if not done correctly it would lag the server.

EDIT: I just realised that 1.9 removed block hitting, since this was also a client change, it would be impossible w/o mods

Zegita August 10, 2016 at 8:08 PM UTC

no such thing because 1.9 gets rid of blockhitting completely so how are you going to blockhit then if the pvp is like 1.8? also 1.9 has seriously weird kb worse than 1.8 and 1.9 is hated by almost every smart player who knows how to pvp. You can't make 1.9 and 1.10 like 1.8 because like I said no blockhitting

DaFrozenBlaze August 10, 2016 at 10:08 PM UTC

1.9 kills zero
Plspls

Stimulating August 10, 2016 at 11:08 PM UTC

1.7 has so many hacked clients now i'd rather stay on 1.8

Myworld6 August 10, 2016 at 11:08 PM UTC

Downgrading back to 1.7 would mean that the hard work that the admins put into the transition from 1.7.10 to 1.8 would go to waste. I for one would rather stay on 1.8 as I don't really notice the difference between the two anymore. In fact, I quite enjoy 1.8 (even if I prefer 1.7.10).

Sevoo August 10, 2016 at 11:08 PM UTC

1.7 in competitive. Other than that we have no choice but to stay in 1.8. :l

What hard work? 

There's nothing that benefits from 1.8 as of now

Reverting back to 1.7 would just take too long and Atlas and some other updates would be completely useless. We should've stayed on 1.7 in the first place ;-;.

Atlas? The update that was mentioned a long ass time ago, back then also used as an excuse to not convert back to 1.7?

Avicus should've stayed 1.7 until the release of Atlas, if it ever even comes out

Just because you and I don't see the work, it doesn't mean it's not there. Unless you're going to tell me that an entire server magically updated to 1.8 without any substantial issues.

Magically updated to a worse version as opposed to staying on another already stable version?

That's your opinion. I liked 1.7.10, but I also like 1.8.

The random ones that are in the update thread made by the devs.

I have no argument against that, other than my opinion that Atlas is worth the wait.

I agree.
