why is nobody playing Frenzy by ViceTechnicolour December 3, 2016 at 2:12 AM UTC

I can't figure it out

The same maps on Mix/DTM are played constantly and I've done many updates for Frenzy and wasted so many hours to get it up and running and it became a graveyard, it's supposed to be fast-paced and fun but I guess Avicus isn't the right audience for fast paced gameplay? I assumed TDM and Blitz and Arcade fans would like it.

It has so many maps and many different styles. What could we do to make Frenzy great again?

people hate change or something

lower the player count to 1v1 players don't really start games because they're all on DTM.

I think it's because you only get one life and can't join an existing game, if I'm thinking of the correct gamemode.

Bloodoh December 3, 2016 at 3:12 AM UTC

I think its bored because there is lack of people in it. If there be like a 20v20 it would be funnier

vladthegreat100 December 3, 2016 at 3:12 AM UTC

I could ask the same for Skywars and SG.
Just take those examples, and that is probably your answer.

Here is what I believe.  DTM has been with Avicus since the creation of Avicus.  Because of this, this is all Avicus players know.  We haven't gotten many new players and the ones that continue to play on this server are so used to play DTM that it has become a natural thing.  If you want players to play the new gamemodes, you would have to bring in new players and push people to play those.  You need to advertise.  Also, why not host a sort of "party" where players could win cool prizes while playing these new gamemodes.

Sevoo December 3, 2016 at 3:12 AM UTC

why do you think

ref December 3, 2016 at 5:12 AM UTC

why not

AtditC December 3, 2016 at 5:12 AM UTC

Ye as Seth said, people hate change xD That's so true if you look at the Avicus history!

dev_revs December 3, 2016 at 6:12 AM UTC

What did I say people, these new gamemodes are worthless.

DaFrozenBlaze December 3, 2016 at 7:12 AM UTC

I don't play because no one else plays

hasl December 3, 2016 at 7:12 AM UTC

When the DTM rot ends send everyone to Frenzy instead of the lobby.

ImRaging December 3, 2016 at 8:12 AM UTC

For the same reasons people dont play other gamemodes excluding destroy.

So many people play it because it was the first refined gamemode that there arent ever enough people to start another

AtditC December 3, 2016 at 8:12 AM UTC

Maybe add anohter command: /server (Destroy1/Frenzy1/etc.) [Player] so you can force players from one server to another!!1! :D

faht December 3, 2016 at 8:12 AM UTC

because the server is dead huh

benaye December 3, 2016 at 9:12 AM UTC

because the server is dead huh
Makes me wonder why the Developers even added it in the first place.

You have to understand once and for all and stop looking for reasons
Start focusing on the only good gamemode you got which is nebula, focus on ctw and dtm since these are the only ones who can play competitively. stop focusing on improving useless features like friendship aesthetics on the forums or things like this, we wanna see updates on the competitive scene

why do you still not get that avicus is dead and by introducing new gamemodes wont make it more popular. why do you think you removed nexus and walls? why do you think no1 likes avicus anymore because of its gamemodes? you should honestly stop wasting your time into this server, invest it in life or school, these are matters that are worth spending time on. you all need to stop seeking for causes on why no1 plays it anymore and focus on improving on the only gamemode you have that is popular.

Crimson_Aught December 3, 2016 at 11:12 AM UTC

Please left forums stay online after Avicus shutting down :C


Seuthy December 3, 2016 at 12:12 PM UTC

JDKL December 3, 2016 at 12:12 PM UTC

Crimson_Aught December 3, 2016 at 1:12 PM UTC

Lobbies are down so no one can join

Myv December 3, 2016 at 1:12 PM UTC

get rid of DTM lol 

but I guess lower player count needed to start it.

xNemoII December 3, 2016 at 1:12 PM UTC

Why would you remove the gamemode that's keeping the server alive its the only thing that attracts people to playing

Frenzy was alright at the start now I think it's boring

Spoookeh December 3, 2016 at 2:12 PM UTC

Work on getting the player count back up before introducing new gamemodes.

benaye December 3, 2016 at 2:12 PM UTC

I see everyone commenting on getting player count back up, but we tried "advertising" and it didn't work.

What now?

Sweedie December 3, 2016 at 3:12 PM UTC

Frenzy is more of a game you need lots of players and lots of players doesn't like to wait for players to join. Also, it's a team game and in public matches it's harder to work together than in scrims
So what if we made a megascrim with frenzy maps sometime?

What about we remove the idea we stole from OCN altogether and work on making DTM a wonderful gamemode and raising the player count.

profbananaslug December 3, 2016 at 6:12 PM UTC

frenzy is nothing but another symptom of avicus' deisease, and I'm beginning to think said disease may be terminal

cellish December 3, 2016 at 7:12 PM UTC

Actually 100+ players were on today during the tourney lol

Myworld6 December 3, 2016 at 8:12 PM UTC

Maybe add anohter command: /server (Destroy1/Frenzy1/etc.) [Player] so you can force players from one server to another!!1! :D
We can use it for hackers. Hacker TDM, anyone?

ogel December 3, 2016 at 10:12 PM UTC

why is nobody playing Avicus

GITHANOS3 December 3, 2016 at 11:12 PM UTC

it sucks mate

StanSB December 3, 2016 at 11:12 PM UTC

remove dtm

Junr December 4, 2016 at 5:12 PM UTC

Even though it's a DTM server, maybe put a map of CTW and a map of Frenzy, so it can introduce new players to these gamemodes since everyone plays Destroy.
