Look on the brighter side 2 new gamemodes meaning 1 could be 2v2s 👀

#

I have never met a person who told me they play giga so idk who these hundreds of people are

solid gulch
#

who dont even have rank

night summit
#

Lmfao💀💀

#

All I ask is for 2v2s, if 10v10s replace 5v5s, then please add 2v2s too

night summit
#

They aren't real

solid gulch
#

join a giga blockwars game

#

and say !!hi

#

and 9/10 none of them reply

night summit
#

So what's your point here

solid gulch
#

or 7 years old

#

so any game they play doesnt matter to them

night summit
#

Those 15 upvotes going to make them want to add this update

solid gulch

#

I've said it before too they should postpone the update and add it in the beta games to see what the community thinks

umbral ingot
#

just change giga ( 50v50 ) to 10v10 and add 2v2 , keep 5v5 and 1v1 as it is ...

@lime radish why is there a need for 2 code bases? Is it not possible to have a few lines of code like
if this is 5v5 uses these maps & only allow 10 players in else uses theses maps & let in 10
Surely the game code is the same?

I mean

#

there was a double helix map for like

it was 8v8 while the other maps were 5v5

how is this not indicator

they alr made the maps and dont wanna ruin there ego so they gonna release it anyways

#

i just hope they dont ruin ffa also

they ruin comp eggwars and comp ctf

#

ffa will be the only last comp com

regal dirge
#

theres still atleast a small chance they keep 5v5 in some form 💀

solid gulch
regal dirge
#

yeah, hopefully when they say they took feedback but are still releasing, maybe that means they are splitting up 5v5 and 10v10

they should at least maek it a pg so a scrim can happen

I find it slightly unfair that devs and admins have upvoted this

#

they’re the ones who have literally complete control of what happens

#

the 150+ downvotes don’t really mean anything

#

this post is slightly useless if it’s gonna come out anyways

#

why give the false feeling of having a voice ?

regal dirge
#

Completely agreed.

#

When they say, "we have made adjustments based on feedback,(...) but the release is going ahead." I assume that means that they may be tweaking the blockwars modes themselves, but still removing 5v5 as the entire point of the original annoucement was, "replacing 5v5 with 10v10." We really can only hope that the adjustments they made are regarding keeping 5v5 (in atleast some form), but I highly doubt that.

slender scaffold
#

almost everyone doesnt want 5v5 to go

#

only way to implement feedback is vault this update or keep 5v5 and release 10v10

We've used the messages posted here to help make changes for the release which should help cater to both the casual and more competitive portions of the playerbase. Please note that the upvote/downvote metrics have not been a factor in this decision-making process.

Honestly bridges might still be somewhat grindable. The maps are so big tho

late jacinth

So sad about ctf tho

#

I hope that partners and staff will still be able to create 5v5 private games

#

Then the cvc could happen

#

And casual scrims once in a while too, when someone from silly kitties decides to show up

regal dirge
#

hopefully yeah i guess, unless they deicide to release pg for more people

#

maybe thats what they mean with "we think you might be pleasantly suprised"

late jacinth
#

I hope so

#

I just don't see why making 5v5 to 10v10 is better than just replacing giga with 10v10

regal dirge
#

they're banking that despite us wanting 5v5 to stay, that they think theyve made something so good that we'll be okay with it

late jacinth
#

They don't like people getting fast wins

regal dirge
late jacinth
#

With like a giant headhitter

#

Across the 200 block long map

next sapphire
#

I'm not going to complain until I get 5 fps in game

regal dirge
#

Honestly swapping giga with 10v10 makes so much sense, like those players will go to 5v5 and 10v10 modes instead of only playing giga, and will also have a reason to actually buy ranks.

next sapphire
#

I can barely run 10 people in normal ctf games but ig we'll see if my PS4 goes nuclear after loading 20 people

late jacinth
#

And queueing will be even worse

regal dirge
#

sure its the most popular, but any updates make a game more popular as everyone goes to check it out. if they made something better than 5v5, that automatically means its better than giga. and if its better than giga, than giga players will play that instead

late jacinth
#

I played 210 games of bridges in the past 48 hours

next sapphire
#

It's not just the people being loaded either

late jacinth
#

And I spent over 50% of the time queueing

next sapphire
#

The power ups the map loading so needing more render distance

#

Etc

next sapphire
late jacinth
#

And it's 5v5

#

Imagine 10v10

next sapphire
#

I think if it's an even team on each side for players counted then the game starts but then the queue gradually adds more people into the game and after 1 flag captured and the flag getting taken then queue to the game stops

late jacinth
#

I truly hope that the "pleasant surprise" will be something like giving the ones that bought blockwars rank ability to create ctf private games

#

Or something like that

#

So that scrims can still work

next sapphire
#

Or just saying "jk"

#

I'll have hope tho maybe they make a great game mode

late jacinth
#

yea

next sapphire
#

Even though imo the 1.19 update made cc bad for me

#

And the whole server

late jacinth
#

But grinding bridges will never be the same. Our strat which is making a headhitter basicly straight into their pit will be impossible, as the distance will now be 200 blocks

ngl wouldnt everyone who would play 10v10 just go play giga instead? the main thing theyll see 10v10 as is, "giga but smaller"

Why not create a new gamemode in the lobby thats all of the mega/giga gamemodes together, and then allow 5v5 and 10v10 to exist. -idea by nash

steep relic
regal dirge
#

yeah its just us trying to find any way we can keep 5v5

#

but even if 500 people personally said they want to keep 5v5 theyd still remove it because they believe that they've cooked up something good that we'll like

#

its such a big gamble, i lowkey respect it

versed crater
#

literally the only reason we don’t like it is because 5v5 is getting deleted

#

but somehow we’re gonna like it, even tho 5v5 is gone

#

Why take away 5v5

lime radish
#

5v5 is going because we feel that the playstyle for bridges specifically is quite stale (running in a straight line) and un-inviting to new players. The team size changes are related to new map design ideas to help them feel more varied. We also have future plans for the entire game mode and those won't work in a space as small as 5v5. CTF is following for consistency

#

We're trying to make blockwars as a whole more standard so that newer players who (as you all have said) start on giga can make an easier transition to 10v10 and help fill queue times there. Do keep in mind that we're also bringing some of the mechanics from 5v5 to 10v10/giga, it's not all one sided.

steep relic
robust estuary
#

Seems like nobody likes your style of "keeping ctf consistant " tho

steep relic
#

Making it 10v10 will only increase the game difficulty and queuing time

#

Giga already ruined normal gamemode aka 5v5's queue but then if u make it 10v10 it will take even more time for game to start

robust estuary
#

So what is more important, listening to the community or doing what u guys want ?

steep relic
#

Making the q time even more aka ruining the game experience in process

#

From this it's clear that there's a huge divide in what casual players and what more competitive players enjoy from blockwars. The game has moved further and further towards catering to casual players, which I'm sure is good for player counts but if you are going to change 5v5 ctf such that the possibility for organised competition, which has clearly become the staple of the community - because of the simplicity to organise - gets too complex to run, either in getting into a game or requiring arbitrary rules to prevent stalememates, then those high value players are isolated and will likely go elsewhere

#

I personally stopped playing because the game didn't have enough complexity at the high level, and it looks like no update since then has done much to increase the strategy ceiling. Given this, the thriving of the competitive community is more in spite of the little content than because of it, so moving the game away from a natural gamemode for competition due to its 5v5 nature to not that doesn't make things easier

ahh yea that does make sense

#

one thing I've not seen mentioned is about if maps will be removed

#

I can understand being quiet about that lol

#

I'd rather see the old maps reborn to be a bit bigger and have a couple extra things than be flat out removed

keeping their original gameplay ideas to at least some extent

Maybe add a CTF Scrims gamemode alongside the causal mode(same for Bridges) and transfer the stats on scrims and make old leader board as a lifetime wins leader board as it would good for both causal players and Sweats like us... so then it would be more like a win-win situation and about the "difficulty of Moderation" can only be saved by a increase in time so it would be a good time to open Moderaters and Adminstrators and improving the Sentinel Anti-cheat

While its sad that new players wont be able to try 5v5s anymore, I can imagine a lot of new possibilities and strategies for the update. I would like to give it a shot. I came to 5v5s to tryhard if needed, while chilling in giga, because in 50v50 if other team is better, you would unlikely to make a difference, never cared about stats there unlike bridge duels with winrate of 95% at about 400 games when I decided to not play it to not ruin numbers, while in giga its fine if game goes either way, I can even fool around and get a win or do my best and loose and its fine :)

#

I play on mobile but I use a controller

sturdy cove
#

tbf bedrock is designed for mobile/controllers…

exotic lance
#

imo it would be better for both parties if bedrock split into mobile and pc/controller

pearl dock
#

Controllers could work with an off hand

exotic lance

#

its also much easier to hack on bedrock, the reason theres so many ppl using reach is because mobile is given an extra block of reach

#

back to the blockwars discussion

#

they already have giga

#

why not replace THAT with mega

"This update introduces two new game modes, enhances side task rewards, and addresses various bugs. We're also refining our queuing system to enhance the mid-game joining experience and updating our leaderboards for more tailored statistics for each game type. Stay tuned for more updates."

#

they tricked us to make us stop protesting

#

by talking about what is being added, NOT what is being replaced

#

we can't share our opinions because cubecraft believes just because we are on discord we are a small portion of the network

#

they assume the other 90% agrees with everything

#

because they dont CARE what happens to 5v5

pearl dock
#

Yeah

scenic wren
#

could they not have just added new maps to 5v5s?

pearl dock
#

It’s giga craft I guess what should we expect

#

white mode ahh

scenic wren
#

exotic lance
#

their strategy is to force this update down our throats and ignore all criticism and wait for it to die down

#

they do NOT care if the entire scrim community leaves

#

and most of the youtubers play eggwars

#

i cant find a single staff message here in the last few days

pale elm
#

You said last few days

exotic lance
#

still a lack of staff responses

#

you saw an announcement message with 190 heart reactions compared to a thread with 165 downvotes and assumed 💙=people like the update

#

they only react with the heart emoji because they will miss 5v5 and dont want it to be deleted

#

the update is still being pushed despite overwhelming criticism

pale elm
#

Austin has replied a few times. Would recommend searching them up, here is a few of the replies

Nothing has really changed since then, so he would just be repeating himself

# pale elm

most of the playerbase doesnt use discord or the forums, do you just assume they support the update?

pale elm
#

As I am a volunteer and am not working with the production team to create and take decisions resolving updates, I can not speak on how they have been resonating more than what they have said already.

late jacinth
#

I love 10v10 ♥️

#

can't wait for the new bridges

exotic lance
late jacinth
#

I'm actually kinda excited though

exotic lance
#

are you trying to get 5v5 deleted

late jacinth
#

even tho 5v5 is our beloved gamemode

exotic lance
#

im trying to argue for keeping 5v5 here

late jacinth
#

i think that's enough of an answer

exotic lance
#

if you talk about being excited for 10v10 theyll ignore the rest of our opinions

exotic lance
late jacinth

#

privated and qzeex both dislike 10v10

late jacinth
#

they said they'll have a pleasent surprise for scrimmers

#

It's already happening. So it'd be for reverting an update rather than stopping it at this point

hear me out: replace giga with 10v10

they could have easily cancelled the update and called it there, but they instead decide to try and force the update down our throats

pale elm
#

Indeed

#

That's what has happened

exotic lance
#

its not gonna make more money so what's the motivation for doing so

sturdy cove
#

erm

pale elm
#

That's where the earlier replies and announcements come in, as I don't have further information than what was already said

:c

they never talked about why they want to push the update

5v5 is already quite easy because most of the time you dont get into sweaty lobbies

pale elm
#

The few times I have solo queued I often ended up against sweaty parties ending up getting totally run over, which made me not want to solo queue anymore

#

That's for bridges at least

copper vessel
#

thats the same for every gamemode tho lol

sturdy cove
#

^^

#

sounds like we need 10 player modes for everything!!

copper vessel
#

remove eggwars squads 🗣️

sturdy cove
#

that’ll fix everything🥰

pale elm
#

But that didn't work

sturdy cove
#

and doubling the player count will fix thT!!

#

and slower games = better queueing!!

worthy jewel
#

and add 50v50v50v50

pale elm
#

The game wasn't designed to be rushed and won within a minute, so for casual players, I'd personally think it's a decent change. Will have to try it out though before pick a side

sturdy cove
#

i agree but i don’t think cc is taking the right approach to this

#

they removed the void from ctf maps

#

and added diamond blocks everywhere

can't they just make the lobby bigger and add it and keep the 10v10 as a add gamemod and not a replacement for 1 which the community enjoys

Found this wiki page: https://thechunk.fandom.com/wiki/Block_Wars

I didn't find an exact date but it does say CTF was released first, so I'd assume early 2014 (making the game nearly 10 years old now, hah). The Chunk's iteration of BlockWars is significantly different from what is on Bedrock now; it's very similar to the iteration we had on Java before it was removed

The Chunk Network Wikia

This page is a candidate for speedy deletion. Block Wars is a Capture the Flag type of game, the main twist is that you can place blocks/traps and that it features several gamemodes. In between...

# young gyro It’s only this area that puts me off

Why are there like bridges? Lmao on the blue side it looks like someone was trying to speedbridge but failed, so the blocks are just going up there lmao. And they really did the elevator. That will just remind me of old bridges

#

I like that though

If we get like all the speedrunners

And we queue clueless people

#

We might have a chance to actually get a sub1

#

Depending on how big the maps are

rugged frost
#

giga can have 600 people and 5v5 300 but while in giga only 6 games r going, on 5v5 there r 30 games😑

@lime radish we don’t want 10v10 mate. We just want battle zone back

And I know this

#

Because I am always correct

#

🤓

versed crater
#

since an entire team is worse at listening to their community than a solo dev

young gyro
#

Since they do the opposite of what we want

#

Just start saying we love 10v10. It is so much better than that garbage game 5v5

versed crater

we reverse psychology

why not just do what duels does like there’s 1v1 and 2v2

and we asked for 10v10 to be giga

because those are literally giga maps

In ctf duels

It's 2v2 for ctf and 1v1 for bridges
