I think that the subscription for all of the ranks system is going to kill the games economy. Because:

  1. For all of the gamemodes, your paying around 40 dollars A MONTH to gain voting perms and map selecting. I honestly think that the voting and map selecting should be free by default because it let's the user interact with the game more instead of making it seem like it's a "vip show off". Also, voting and map selecting are very basic things, so why not make all of the current stuff rank only (BY ONE TIME PAYMENT) except just for those 2 things so that way the games can be more interactive at the start or challenges will appear more person-favorited when selected. I can kinda agree with the pillars of fortune game being vip vote only, but still.

  2. Almost noone after around 2-3 months will be paying for the ranks anymore as its just too expensive. 10 dollars for minecoins will last you around 2 months let alone buying other ranks too. If its gonna be all subby and money and stuff, keep the price affordable for maps and voting at around 10-20 minecoins and all of the cosmetics and vip things in a one time payment. However, I just think subscriptions just to select maps, gamemodes, and vote is just another scummy way to make money, because it's just BASIC STUFF that should be FREE BY DEFALT

  3. Just like other say, if it ain't broke, don't fix it. The old way of buying things was fine and having beta games/bedwars as subscriptions I was ok with because they are just beta things. But turning everything into pay-to-flex/pay-to-win is just too much. Keep it the way people like it so that way you'll get more attention for being community friendly.

FAQ:

  • Doesn't Cubecraft cost alot to run?
    Cubecraft is a featured server already making a ton of money and hasn't shown a sign of bankruptcy or insufficiency to run their servers. So they probably did this update in order to pay their employees more or smthn.

  • How would you know about Diamond Vips not paying anymore and being unhappy?
    I can already see a ton of anger within the Diamonds because they already paid alot. It's like Cubecraft saying "You've given us alot, but we want more" which I think is very "Microsoft Style" in terms of economy

  • Will they fix it at all?
    Since this server is owned by a big corporation, I dont think anytime soon since Discord is that same way with the "Ai Emailing and scanning" crap

  • Don't the kids not give a crap and spend anything?
    I think they'll eventually come to a conclusion too that its a waste of money just to vote and select maps. Their parents also may not like them spending money that quickly if their little

to answer your questions:
the run cost is probably less than you think but the people who work for ziax need to get paid somehow.
diamond vips are not a significant source of income and i dont think theyre going to stop buying things.
no they will not fix it unless they add a "partial fix" like a discount for permanent rank owners
no the kids dont care about how much they spend, its daddys money.

#

40 bucks a month just isnt true

#

just buy gold sub (all ranks) for like 10 bucks

gold sub is the old prize of the ranks

Cc just ignore all feedback about subs

thats a huge upsell

#

I think the existence of CC gold is actually fine. but you cant just nix permanent ranks at the same time

We weren't happy with BedWars subscription. We did feedback about it.

But what happened?

Cubecraft ignore it and did all ranks to subscriptions.

Now we are happy? Hell nah.

A company should make happy their customers. But cc did all ranks to subs instead of making bedwars subscription to rank

brave spindle
#

Yeah I think for a certain kind of player it makes sense

#

PGs are a valuable feature to have and definitely should cost additional money

#

But again, the removal of permanent ranks is a HUGE misstep and im deeply concerned about the direction the server is taking

ruby ingot
#

Please care about players don't do anything you want

brave spindle
#

An individual game rank just doesn't offer enough value to the consumer to justify a recurring payment. Subscriptions can make sense for a service that continuously adds features and content, like Netflix or Spotify. Cubecraft ranks just aren't on that echelon

Cubecraft should offer both options: permanent ranks for those who want to buy once and keep forever, and subscriptions for players who prefer short term access or extras. That would keep more players happy and loyal.
