What an in-game currency could look like

[modest sky]

Caiox is a sweat damn

And it connects

Yeah caiox just told me

[hazy narwhal]

Oh cool

[worldly zodiac]

Bruh quests and in game currency???
I think it will ruin the feel

[valid cargo]

I personally think cosmetics and stuff liek that would make the game more intresting

[hazy narwhal]

All of this could be completely optional, and you can turn off all the cosmetics. So if you wanted you could keep the game exactly how it is.

[ruby warren]

real, it would make it feel p2w

[valid cargo]

how?

[worldly zodiac]

That is the devs plan
Their main source of inckme

*income

[valid cargo]

the currency could be used only on comsetics

how u want to make this p2w?

[hazy narwhal]

How are cosmetics p2w?

[grim rover]

did you read the text explaining everything?

[blazing dagger]

Cosmetics are going to be added, the idea of currency is intriquing to me

[worldly zodiac]

Cosmetics won't affect the game.
It's not p2w

[grim rover]

Yep

[unreal spindle]

i think cosmetics in pvp ranked should be things like armor trims (vanilla and custom ones) and maybe some cool 3D swords in 1v1s so it doesnt break other cosmetics people are going to use (like lunar, feather and essential)

[blazing dagger]

Thats interesting to consider, I think we could just make them toggleable though but good to think about

[hazy narwhal]

They will have cosmetics, but it isn't p2w and will most likely be toggleable. They will not make the server p2w at all.

[unreal spindle]

vanilla armor trims could be available for everyone but you can add custom armor trims and 3D swords if there would be paid cosmetics

in my opinion vanilla armor trim options should not be paid

[grim rover]

Not paid, u buy it with in game currency thst you can obtain through quests/challenges

[blazing dagger]

We will see

[worldly zodiac]

in game currency is soo bad.
Make it paid.
Adding in game currency just makes it bad. Trust.

And I stg.
If there are gonna be quests like - "snowfall your opponents 1000 times"
It's better to just abandon this mod

[valid cargo]

how would the currency make it bad? When u could only buy some cosmetics for it

[worldly zodiac]

Crystal pvp is just not meant for this type of robux shi-

[valid cargo]

the mod is not focused only on cpvp also there would be a button to turn on / off the cosmetics

[worldly zodiac]

I mean minecraft general

[worldly zodiac]

I don't have anything against cosmetics

It's the currency

Like how would you gain currency?

Quests are gonna make the game soo boring

Mctiers is about competitiveness

[valid cargo]

u could either buy them or by playing... like in other games for example as in Rocket League

[worldly zodiac]

Wdym playing

Say specifically

Like game time?
Or like wins

[valid cargo]

quest or reward for reaching some tier or by just playing for example in Slapshot Rebound u get 300 PUX every 10 played games

[worldly zodiac]

How many times would someone reach a new tier?

And wdym quests ?
Give example

[valid cargo]

like in every other game weekly / monthly etc like get some xy wins, kill xy players in specific gamemode

[worldly zodiac]

I ask for example

And u just say like other games?

[worldly zodiac]

.

I'm not even liking cosmetics

[valid cargo]

Weekly: Win 10 ranked matches, Get 25 kills, Play for 5 hours
Monthly: Win 30 ranked matches, Get 75 kills, Play for 25 hours

[worldly zodiac]

I mean it's okay if it's like shield banners or templates on armor

But if it's like hoplite kinda cosmetics .
Then I think it's bad

[worldly zodiac]

That is basically playing morr

[valid cargo]

thats why there gonna be a button to turn them on / off

[valid cargo]

u asked for an example which was mentioned above... the thing is we don´t know now for sure what things can be simply countable to do as quest and what cant

[worldly zodiac]

Only playing is possible

And it's lame

[valid cargo]

let me ask u how would u imagine to get the currency

[worldly zodiac]

Other subway surfers kinda quests like shift 100 times in a single round or smth is just horrible

[worldly zodiac]

Just remove cutrency

That's what I was yapping about all along

[oblique swallow]

@hazy narwhal we should be able to use this curreny in #1344671095277617183 message

[worldly zodiac]

Ooh that is good

[grim rover]

Its toggleable so if you dont like it you can simply turn it off

[hazy narwhal]

I don't like the idea of allowing kids to gamble. There have been studies that show gambling in games (even with no real money) can lead to gambling problems later in life.

[oblique swallow]

🤓

holy mini mod

it is with real money

[hazy narwhal]

I'm just giving my perspective on why gambling could be bad.

[oblique swallow]

it should be

gambling is good

[hazy narwhal]

How old are you?

[oblique swallow]

15

[hazy narwhal]

I hope somehow you change your perspective on gambling, good luck bro.

[oblique swallow]

how old are you to think this isnt satire

💀

[hazy narwhal]

Gambling is a very serious problem, so I would take it seriously even if it could be satire.

[oblique swallow]

nah

its only high risk investing

[valid cargo]

i love the idea to showing gambling to kids

cause if they lose they surely wont do it again

[hazy narwhal]

That isn't how gambling works sadly...

[oblique swallow]

bro, they are joking, how dumb are you

[valid cargo]

chill

[hazy narwhal]

I know he's joking... I also gave sarcastic response lol.

[fluid sluice]

The chance we ever add anything p2w is <0%

that would suck literally so much

quests are cool (assuming there's an option to hide them completely for players that like vanilla mc), but many of them would encourage smurfing to get them (win match with X totems left, get a 10x combo, 5 game winstreak, win w/ chestplate), since nearly all are easier if you throw 10 games in a row to get easier opponents, so they would have to be only available in modes that don't have skill based matchmaking that can be manipulated by throwing.

Those quests could easily show up in anything you do while waiting for a match though, or on pvp club integration

and any quest that isn't vulnerable to smurfing making it easier (X wins, beating a player of X rank, etc) would work great

Quests add another dimension to games because they make you feel like you made progress on something even if you lost

if you lose a game its nice to have the game say "congratulations! you did something else cool! here's a reward:)"

[hazy narwhal]

Yeah I like that

[hazy narwhal]

Yep, definitely will stop a lot of rage quits lol.

Overall though I think having a toggle to turn all of this off is the most important thing.

[worldly zodiac]

"Git Gud" better 🗣️

[fluid sluice]

yes absolutely

[fluid sluice]

lol

I have this theory that a lot of the pvp community is systematically opposed to anything that lets low ranked players have fun

since a while back some of my suggestions on that line were rejected instantly somewhat on that basis

[hazy narwhal]

That is absolutely true, and it unfortunately leads to A LOT of gatekeeping.

[narrow socket]

it would be so cool if there was an MCCI kind of server for 1.9+ tierlist pvp

[blazing dagger]

Play on our partner server McPvPClub!

[crimson fiber]

🤖

[rustic lance]

So true, especially in some communities, when you lose as a low rank player, you most of the time get told to quit the game and your life, and also get called the r-slur or smth in the process.
When a high rank player (like lt3+) loses though, the reaction is more like " good game, wanna try other gamemodes?"

[hazy narwhal]

Personally, I have seen many more toxic lt3+ players than low rank players.

[rustic lance]

Yeah, well its usually ht4-ht3 players that are the most toxic but t5s and kinda lt4s too usually end up being targeted by this toxic behaviour (also ofc every tier has toxic players, this is just based off of my experiences)

Above ht3 people usually grow up and start being nice and polite

[grim rover]

They think they are good and then they are toxic

[rustic lance]

Wait until a t2 comes, suddenly their other name is "nice" xD

But tbf there are many t3s that are extremely nice and encouraging

[clear aspen]

Vbucks

[blazing dagger]

That character is not in my database, please use another symbol

[hazy narwhal]

Lmao 🤣

[dense sigil]

I think perhaps a purchasable rank for perks would be better (e.g. customisable armour trims and shields) in this case

though

MAYBE there could be some sort of currency for something that you could gain through winstreaks or something

which could be a free alternative

[hazy narwhal]

I think that would also be very important to help monetize the server, but some free stuff would also be very cool for people who can't afford to pay anything.

[dense sigil]

yep

[hazy narwhal]

Oh yeah, I didn't see that you said that already lol.
