crisp ginkgo
#

we can easily exchange our internalised disliking of runners into an EXTERNALISED disliking of runners... (joke, we at the HIVE Hide and Seek gamemode, do not CONDONE or AUTHORIZE hate of any degree)

#

ok let me log on.

astral fractal

crisp ginkgo

storm mirage

storm mirage

flip side tho, very open and easy to route

crisp ginkgo

we don't need another ts

storm mirage

the routing seems super intuitive

crisp ginkgo

@glad stirrup JOIN party (please!)

storm mirage

astral fractal

astral fractal
#

no

crisp ginkgo
astral fractal
#

that is so sad what if i wanted to share my thoughts on the maps out loud in our only mutual server

crisp ginkgo

We need to make a server for the BEST seekers of hide and seek.

glad stirrup

i LOST but it was fun

storm mirage
#

do u want an invite?

astral fractal
#

yes its called c--

storm mirage
#

crisp ginkgo

storm mirage
#

no its called hide and seek sweats

crisp ginkgo
#

sure, invite me again, ty

glad stirrup
#

😧 guys im ngl i rlly dont like chime

astral fractal
#

verdict: same

storm mirage
#

seems annoying as heck to run on

#

you only ever have 2 options at most

astral fractal
#

im ngl the outside area is just not it

storm mirage
#

so you'll just end up being cut off by a competent seeker and a random

storm mirage
#

harvest is goated

glad stirrup
#

yea idk why this map is so empty

storm mirage
#

you'll HATE harvest

glad stirrup
#

i liked harvest more

storm mirage
storm mirage
astral fractal
#

hive rly said: seq/cali/pp are so old we can do better

glad stirrup
#

😭 fr

#

seq was SO detailed

astral fractal
#

seq was a work of art.

#

that is unironically what it is called yes

storm mirage
#

yea ik

dark token
storm mirage
#

rip

glad stirrup
#

i already want to ask for chime to removed

#

😧

astral fractal
#

also what is the theme i like cant tell

dark token
#

i presume some european country

glad stirrup
dark token
#

harvest i think is kinda cool

#

not often does a farm theme feel interesting to me

#

even if it looks kinda…gray

glad stirrup
#

ye it looks fun but its kinda lifeless

#

rehire whoever built seq

#

i beg

dark token
#

can anyone show me what seq looks like? i keep hearing about it

crisp ginkgo
#

these maps are WAYYY too open

#

harvest is giving animal village

glad stirrup
#

yeah animal village was a lot better

crisp ginkgo
#

(not only bc its a farm)

glad stirrup
#

ill try find a seq video

dark token
crisp ginkgo
#

FR

glad stirrup
#

do u have a seeking vid olivia

astral fractal
#

harvest isnt rly giving hns ngl

#

yeah

dark token
#

what have i been missing out on

glad stirrup
#

its better than chime for sure but on second look ... harvest bad too

glad stirrup
#

^seq

dark token
#

chime feels like they had a village theme halfway through but they weren’t confident in it so they combined it with some other theme

glad stirrup
#

ok yh i dont like harvest

#

fr it has no theme

dark token
#

it does but it doesn’t do a good job making it look appealing

#

that theme being farming

bold crater
#

Just played those 2 maps. They look good but they not hide n seek. They seem to be better for murder mystery. In my opinion

storm mirage
#

basically the theme for both chime and harvest

glad stirrup
dark token
#

i like the more compact stages

storm mirage
dark token
#

because you don’t spend a whole minute just going in a circle around the map

storm mirage
#

harvest is goated tho

#

but also

dark token
#

i think its neat

storm mirage
#

u dont need to run circles, u can always juke if u want to

#

its just nice to have options

storm mirage
#

where u dodge the seekers hit and go past them

#

or something

dark token
#

oh, i was talking about being a seeker actually

storm mirage
#

breaking their ankles

bold crater
#

I just don't feel the vibe with it

upbeat mortar
#

new maps yay

storm mirage
#

yea those maps arent fun for seekers LOL

storm mirage
dark token
#

i can’t disagree with the joy of discovering something new

bold crater
#

But harvest especially is soooo good for jukes 100%

storm mirage
#

harvest is a goated runner map

bold crater
#

Except for it doesn't have heaps of actual jumps

#

To throw seekers off

glad stirrup
#

yea from a runner view it just seems like lots of flat land

bold crater
#

It's gonna get to the point where seekers are gonna figure out all the jukes

glad stirrup
#

looks rlly bland to run honestly

storm mirage
#

its in a similar position to winter fair

#

imo

dark token
#

im gonna have to play on it a few more times to form my opinion

crisp ginkgo
bold crater
storm mirage
#

it really is a ctf map

#

😆

crisp ginkgo
# glad stirrup looks rlly bland to run honestly

I agree, im no runner but the thrill if running was to run in maps not necessarily designed for running, i feel like whoever built these maps was a runner or listened to runners opinions only. I dont think these maps will be enjoyed by runners after a while.

storm mirage
#

straight up

crisp ginkgo
#

these maps are way too.... accessible?

glad stirrup
#

neither of them are an anything map

storm mirage
#

chime is as good for runners as humbug is

glad stirrup
#

😭

storm mirage
#

harvest is a runner map

dark token
storm mirage
#

winter fair is amazing

crisp ginkgo
dark token
#

its pretty tho

storm mirage
dark token
#

alright

#

thats fine by me

storm mirage
#

I played tag with dmn on that map a while ago I could consistantly catch him within 2 minutes except for when he super outplayed me multiple times in a row

glad stirrup
#

windows11skull i was rlly hyped to play new maps

storm mirage
#

u just kinda shepard them into a corner

glad stirrup
#

damn what a shame

storm mirage
#

the new map is goated

#

wdym

#

(we dont talk about chime)

glad stirrup
#

😭

storm mirage
#

chimes for sure a hider/seeker map

glad stirrup
#

i wouldnt mind harvest if it came with other good maps

#

but with chime its just an awful update

#

harvest with seq for example

storm mirage
#

new maps is always better

crisp ginkgo
#

harvest is just... boring visually and not fun at all

storm mirage
glad stirrup
#

it seems fun but too boring esp with other boring maps

crisp ginkgo
#

hospital is great

bold crater
#

Agree

storm mirage
#

ur crazy

crisp ginkgo
#

SOO much more detail

glad stirrup
#

hospital came in with pp seq tala and gr though

storm mirage
#

its so drab

crisp ginkgo
#

structurally

glad stirrup
#

so i can forgive it

#

it was in a great update

storm mirage
crisp ginkgo
#

harvest has no structure

storm mirage
#

even cali >>>>>> hospital

storm mirage
#

it wasnt supposed to have structure lol

dark token
crisp ginkgo
#

well no

#

lotus DUD have structure but only on the actual building

#

not the ice rink

storm mirage
storm mirage
#

and the trucks are very nice

glad stirrup
#

lotus had no structure

storm mirage
#

right?

crisp ginkgo
#

the buildings are just boring houses that are only in like half the map

storm mirage
glad stirrup
#

idm maps w harvests structure as long as they arent all like that ...

dark token
#

when you guys say “no structure” are you referring to the amount of “stuff” inside the buildings and whatnot?

storm mirage
#

its an open farm with walls and stuff

crisp ginkgo
#

its TOO open

glad stirrup
#

no like the route

storm mirage
crisp ginkgo
#

as soon as you get hit every seeker in the game knows where u are

storm mirage
#

and we all love both those maps

storm mirage
#

thats honestly so fair

crisp ginkgo
glad stirrup
#

like think of how closed off seq is in comparison, and pps like 3 different levels

dark token
#

pripyat is not that open

astral fractal
#

jim sue drop the screenie please

crisp ginkgo
#

brb this is a very important and SERIOUS discussion !!!!!

halcyon charm
#

oMg HaID And Seeek UpDete, jk can't wait to play the maps!

glad stirrup
storm mirage
dark token
#

form your own opinions

#

this update seems very divisive for a lot of people

glad stirrup
#

its genuinely the worst map update ive ever seen

#

in like 5 years of maining hns

haughty citrus
#

What's up with the map?

storm mirage
#

but also

glad stirrup
#

they just lack any substance

storm mirage
#

its still an update lol

#

more maps is preferable to less maps imo

glad stirrup
#

yea now when im playing good maps like haci and sunset and tala i get to occasionally play some bad ones

storm mirage
#

if theyre bad just dont vote them lol

#

and if theyre bad others wont either

glad stirrup
#

yea the variety will be nice but id rather they just added good ones instead

storm mirage
#

bad is subjective

glad stirrup
#

i guess windows11skull

halcyon charm
glad stirrup
#

the others just had so much more to explore, remember, more memorable themes

halcyon charm
storm mirage
storm mirage
#

sorry 🙏

dark token
#

what map would you guys say is the perfect size for hide and seek?

storm mirage
#

bora bora

#

paris

#

why?

dark token
#

huh? no reason

#

just curious about what people would say

crisp ginkgo
#

kingston, pineapple port and goldrush

astral fractal
#

as a seeker i like tala size

crisp ginkgo
#

small, but has levels

#

tala is a bit TOO small tho

#

in a general sense i believe king, pp and gr are quite balanced

astral fractal
#

yeah true the layout isn’t particularly interesting either

crisp ginkgo
#

true

cloud phoenix
#

Kingston the best sized map in my humble opinion..

glad stirrup
#

its rlly pretty and detailed tho

#

so its ok that the other bits rnt interesting

#

new maps have nothing particularly interesting

astral fractal
#

i don’t like gr but the size is nice and i like the layout

glad stirrup
#

yeah

crisp ginkgo
#

yes !!!

storm mirage
glad stirrup
#

whats wrong with it

storm mirage
#

Too small

#

It’s for sure a seeker map

glad stirrup
#

i think its got lots of really good spots though

storm mirage
#

Yea?

glad stirrup
#

ive been seeking it for a long time

storm mirage
#

Not balanced

glad stirrup
#

i think its easy to miss people

storm mirage
glad stirrup
#

mabye

#

lots of seeker mains dont find me there

crisp ginkgo
storm mirage
crisp ginkgo
#

in a general sense

glad stirrup
#

u can def run it

glad stirrup
storm mirage
dark token
#

kingstons may be small but there’s still some good hiding spot

crisp ginkgo
#

again, good seekers aren't really that common

glad stirrup
#

well yeah a good seeker can clear all the maps

crisp ginkgo
#

in Eu mostly LOL

storm mirage
glad stirrup
#

if u cant run it then idk what to tell u

storm mirage
glad stirrup
#

ive met plenty of ppl who can

glad stirrup
crisp ginkgo
#

you're never going to get a perfect balance

storm mirage
crisp ginkgo
#

but these two maps, insanely unbalanced.

storm mirage
#

So’s sunset

crisp ginkgo
#

hacienda is pretty good

#

sun isnt id say

storm mirage
#

Office too

dark token
#

sunset is good

crisp ginkgo
#

same with town, obv

glad stirrup
crisp ginkgo
#

office is good

storm mirage
#

Sauceless map

dark token
#

personally i don’t like town square at all

storm mirage
#

Just circle simulator

crisp ginkgo
#

but id say office is a little favoured toward hiders

glad stirrup
#

towns fun tbh

storm mirage
#

Same thing over and over again

storm mirage
glad stirrup
#

its a classic tho

crisp ginkgo
#

we'll see once i play a couple more games ig !!

glad stirrup
#

town has been around for eons it is eternal

storm mirage
glad stirrup
#

it does but its so empty inbetween them

storm mirage
#

Yea for running lol

glad stirrup
#

its hide and seek maps shouldnt be made with runners in mind

crisp ginkgo
#

i found 1

dark token
crisp ginkgo
#

but itll be overused by kbmmers

storm mirage
glad stirrup
#

is the good part of running not doing it in maps that arent made for it?

crisp ginkgo
glad stirrup
#

i feel like running in seq or nexus would be way more fun surely

glad stirrup
#

like a map w levels and interesting structure

storm mirage
#

I noticed that spot

storm mirage
crisp ginkgo
# storm mirage Bad opinion

like, isn't the thrill of running, running maps that were NOT designed for running? If it's made for runners then it makes it pale in comparison to actually challenging maps, like theres so many places to juke / switch direction it's insane

dark token
#

thats something i like in a map, is levels

crisp ginkgo
#

agree

mild ingot
#

new hide maps wow

#

that surely means lvl 75 soon

crisp ginkgo
mild ingot
#

oh

glad stirrup
#

keep ur hopes low

crisp ginkgo
#

hopefully we can warm up to them

glad stirrup
#

i mean yea ill get used to them but they just seem like filler for the sake of it

#

i dont believe any like consideration of how hns plays was put into those maps

#

it cant be that much more work to port old maps right

crisp ginkgo
#

this is why they need to port java maps, those maps were made / assisted by actual hide and seek players, i doubt these maps are made with any actual hide and seek players.

glad stirrup
crisp ginkgo
#

lemme check who made the maps actually.

glad stirrup
#

the ones we ask for were made by team nectar

crisp ginkgo
#

why have they kind of devolved tho...

glad stirrup
#

fr

crisp ginkgo
#

like these maps are just NOT interesting

#

they might work as lobbies but not maps for a gamemode

glad stirrup
#

yuh it feels like they started making it for another game and were like wait... what if hns

crisp ginkgo
#

ok thats a bit mean LOL

glad stirrup
#

LMAOO

crisp ginkgo
#

just a bit disappointed like WHAT WENT WRONG

#

oop? deleted.

mighty flame
#

All for feedback but let's keep it respectful

glad stirrup
#

rip jim sue

#

im not trying to be disrespectful i just genuinely think theyre a massive step back for game quality

crisp ginkgo
#

rip h_pensive

glad stirrup
#

unless u werent talking to me

crisp ginkgo
#

same !

mighty flame
#

I was referring to the specific message that was deleted

glad stirrup
#

oh sick

mighty flame
#

Your feedback is as always very helpful, but please do remember that people put a lot of time and effort into building these maps, regardless of how you may feel about them

dark token
#

alright

glad stirrup
#

i can appreciate that but i think itd be a better use of their time if they were built with hns gameplay in mind

#

im not good at saying things not rudely sorry

dark token
#

why does one side of harvest feel more interesting than the other side?

mighty flame
#

I get that you guys care a great deal about the game and therefore have strong opinions, just something to keep in mind 🙂

crisp ginkgo
#

Very true, but It just seems like hive care a lot more for other game modes maps in general, as if they don't care for hns at all because every other map is well thought out and structured specifically for THAT gamemode.

glad stirrup
#

yeah in hns maps specifically the layout and detail is literally everything

#

i just worry that was forgotten abt here

#

they're fine as maps for anything else

#

murder was mentioned a couple times as a game they felt more suited for

crisp ginkgo
#

especially for harvest.

dark token
#

harvest is too open for murder in my opinion

mild ingot
#

harvest is kinda wack

glad stirrup
#

idk mabye other ppl will like them more windows11skull

crisp ginkgo
mild ingot
#

time for chime

glad stirrup
#

chime just has no redeeming qualities as hider seeker or runner

dark token
glad stirrup
#

the spots are really bland and guessable

#

theyre straightforward to learn and there isnt much to i guess discover?

#

its all just sort of basic and flat

dark token
#

i actually got lost in chime the first time i played lol

glad stirrup
#

maps like nexus have so many diff like areas and corners

glad stirrup
#

or was that just me idk

stark cairn
#

why is hide and seek chat so heated today

austere depot
glad stirrup
#

same

#

hacienda was good

crisp ginkgo
#

even plasma, which is relatively flat has like an uphill and downhill section so its good enough

stark cairn
#

oh new maps

dark token
glad stirrup
#

yeah

austere depot
glad stirrup
#

i dont believe anyone will spent 50 games on the new maps and then suddenly find a new great spot they never wouldve thought of

crisp ginkgo
#

plasma is good !

glad stirrup
#

but most hns maps do have that

dark token
#

plasma is def top 3 for me

crisp ginkgo
halcyon charm
#

I really like the new maps, I know that this update isn't like the biggest of all time. But they said that they are currently working on other game updates two.

austere depot
#

Sunset Terrace is a W too.

glad stirrup
#

i looove sunset

austere depot
#

And China Town.

crisp ginkgo
glad stirrup
austere depot

Kingston's also a good map too.

#

I encourage you all to play them some more over the weekend and form opinions based on that, just playing a couple of games doesn't give you enough time to fully explore them both 🙏

dark token
mild ingot
#

chime is kinda cool i think

#

very mazey

austere depot
#

I haven't played any of the 2 maps, so I don't have an opinion yet.

#

Hope they're good.

dark token
#

but i’ll have to play more to really experience them both

glad stirrup
#

but like as someone who'd been seeking for what 3 or 4 years my first couple hacienda games i was still exploring it

#

thats a recent bedrock exclusive

dark token
#

hacienda is a cool map

glad stirrup
#

it was just such a different experience off the bat

mild ingot
halcyon charm
glad stirrup
#

they all looked really guessable and basic to me

#

but idk what its like for new players

#

ive never seen u here before so

#

ig we have diff perspective

chime seems pretty big compared to all other maps we have

#

but it is very simple

halcyon charm
dark token
#

its been an hour since they’ve been released and we already have fully formed opinions of both lol

glad stirrup
#

ill try learn them and see what i think after but idk

#

i dont have them memorised yet obviously so windows11skull

#

ill shut up for now

mild ingot
#

Who will get first 15 on those maps

stark cairn
halcyon charm
dark token
#

i like it when you can parkour in maps to get to better hiding places

#

chime surprisingly has a nice spot that i don’t think seekers would notice right away

#

its in the place with the bookshelf pillar

stark cairn
#

they seem to have a lot of spots to climb or parkour into which is cool for hiders

#

the only bad thing for hiders is that they are still pretty simple

finite tinsel
#

And someone send me the two new hide and seek map pls

uploading screenshots from the nintendo switch to your phone is tedious so i’ll just point out where it is

when is Pineapple Port Being Added

dark token
#

near the starting point inside a building, there’s a room full of bookshelves. at the back lies a ladder, from there you can climb and jump around to get to the front of the wall of bookshelves thats in the middle of the room

#

if you still can’t find it, it’s the high ledge you’ll see when you enter the room itself

crisp ginkgo
#

should we memorise harvest first !?!?!

paper maple
#

sure

winter shadow
#

just watched hurricane stream the maps, harvest is a lot more impressive

astral fractal
#

there was a tree

dark token
#

harvest only has multiple levels in the buildings, which isn’t a lot

#

although there’s this one place in the barn where you can knock someone off the 2nd floor by punching them which i think is funny

astral fractal
#

bedrock is badly in need of good troll spots.

#

wait how is the spot density of the new maps like

#

seeking is so fun when u have like 10 spots to check with every glance

stark cairn
#

awful

astral fractal
#

or if there are a lot of like.. peripheral spots like hiding on walls as blocks that blend in like some blue conc spots on plas or planks on tala

#

dang

harvest is amazing

grinding out these new maps has made me like them less

I’m playing harvest rn

#

it’s alright

glad stirrup
#

i feel like they encourage players not to hide

#

it seems like theyre made for ppl to run on

silk stump
#

Good for me:)

glad stirrup
#

not to say runners r bad but i dont think maps should like openly encourage it for new players

storm mirage

does having a lobby of hiders running abt bc theres nowhere to hide not defeat the point of it

storm mirage

just a different game

#

infection tag

glad stirrup
#

LMAO

silk stump
#

LOL

glad stirrup
#

i feel like ive already learned the maps but it doesnt even matter bc its so big and open that no one is hiding in one place

#

ofc whether thats good or bad is personal opinion..

stark cairn
#

it's really a shame that there are barely any hiding options

glad stirrup
#

yeah idk why they would discourage sneaky hiding if the game is called hide and seek

storm mirage
#

the mossy cobble lets u hide in the walls

silk stump
#

ngl

glad stirrup
#

easy to learn cobble spots

storm mirage
#

theres tons of inside bits

silk stump
#

harvest is 👎

stark cairn
glad stirrup
#

yh

#

spots are SUPERR limited

storm mirage
#

the inside spots are fine tho

stark cairn
#

i enjoy that they tried to implement more parkour spots but they could have added much more 'normal' spots, spots with an easy access

glad stirrup
#

yeah

stark cairn
crisp ginkgo
#

the dark oaks are so annoying to look out for on chime istg

stark cairn
#

the inside is very bare

#

chime is so big that i kept finding random rooms

silk stump
#

I haven’t played on chime yet

#

is it good?

glad stirrup
#

its pretty similar to harvest in how the game goes

#

just as empty really

silk stump
#

oh

glad stirrup
#

i feel like they could be adapted to have a bit more depth and smoother gameplay

silk stump
#

yea fs

astral fractal
storm mirage
#

Am I wrong?

#

Y’all should try to get infection tag to be a game mode ngl

#

Once u do that all the runners will leave hide

silk stump
#

yes

glad stirrup
#

yeah turn these into infection tag maps

#

i might just dodge them i rlly dont think they fit into hns at ALL

storm mirage
#

They’d fit the vibe way more ngl

stark cairn
#

is infection tag like that pumpkin game we had on java

storm mirage

What pumpkin game

#

Do u have clips?

# crisp ginkgo this is why they need to port java maps, those maps were made / assisted by actu...

i know i’m late, but let’s (respectfully) put these false assumptions to rest. just so you know, i speak from the perspective of a previously hardcore Java HNS player, turned builder, turned build project manager. i have played 12,000+ games of hide and seek and at one point was like #20 on the java leaderboards. i’ve built and overseen/given feedback on several, if not all, bedrock maps!

first, it is absolutely fine to have your initial opinion of a map! this is the cycle usually went through on java - there’s the “idk if i like this map” phase, the overreactions, the “this map is irredeemable,” etc.! these feelings are absolutely valid, hns remains my fav gamemode after all these years, and it’s a mode where the map matters SO much for balance. but, I heavily implore you, give the maps time, give constructive feedback, and use them as a way to maybe change up your playing style!! not to mention (& this isn’t a promise) - these maps can have small adjustments in the future. we did the same on java and we have no reason not to continue the same trend here

storm mirage
#

I agree

silk stump
#

Yes sir 🫡

halcyon tree
#

I assure you these maps were built with the hns gamemode in mind! we love the game, it’s always been a part of my life, but it also helps to be constructive! (I haven’t read the full chat beyond this so maybe there was constructive feedback that i haven’t gotten to yet, but i assure you every builder here wants the best for their maps)!!

glad stirrup
#

i just think the maps play so drastically different that it isnt the same game

crisp ginkgo
#

of course ! thank you for the response, at the time I overreacted of course and I'd like to apologise for my harsh words! :)

glad stirrup
#

unless youre planning on turning hns in a completely different direction, they do not work

stark cairn
#

i feel like that'd be a good point though, adds diversity to the game

crisp ginkgo
halcyon tree
glad stirrup
#

thats true, ive been grinding them out recently but ill give them more of a try

halcyon tree
#

plus!!! as far as im aware, hide is keeping on with the same direction it’s always been in. sometimes we’ve had to go back in and remove some troll/overpowered spots because (as much as we like to appeal to our hardcore players), we also want spots to be accessible for the average player, especially on mobile

versed moon
#

tim and the whole team is so nice hypixel_heart

astral fractal
#

good to know that maps could be adjusted !!

halcyon tree
#

i haven’t played as much bedrock as i’d like to recently, but i will definitely play once im out of school and have my own thoughts as well :)

(also please add sequoia, hotel cali, and pineapple port)

Add Bora Bora

🥂

glad stirrup
#

these maps dont have good spots full stop

astral fractal
#

i think they could work BEAUTIFULLY with bedrock

#

the seq and pp layouts were so good

glad stirrup
#

theyre very empty and all the spots are guessable

astral fractal
#

and cali is even different than anything else in bedrock rn

crisp ginkgo
halcyon tree

will keep in mind as i play :)

glad stirrup

please check them out

thank you for that

glad stirrup

what maps on java did you work on out of curiosity

#

i remember u were on the team there

ivory trail
halcyon tree
#

not that im like a “hide and seek god” who can make everything or anything, but I can always pass on a message and get the opinion of the original builder

stark cairn
#

they're good maps, a little challenging even in some aspects, and i love them aesthetically, but the spots for hiders are very easy and simple (besides some options where you have to parkour)

crisp ginkgo
#

Harvest is humungous and extremely painful with runners.

glad stirrup
#

the maps rlly could use the input of a hns player

halcyon tree
astral fractal
#

OMG!

stark cairn

omg talavera <3_<3

astral fractal

i adore all of those maps

crisp ginkgo

HEARTH

paper maple

I love talavera

glad stirrup
halcyon tree
#

i don’t think there’s a single map I haven’t at least touched

stark cairn
#

did an amazing work on all of them but especially tala

astral fractal
#

hearthstone village would also be a great addition to bedrock. unless the original creators are gone and u guys can’t

halcyon tree
#

i just wanna revamp the aesthetics of tala!! and the middle feels so open

astral fractal
#

tala so pretty already 😍

glad stirrup
#

the way tala plays is great though

halcyon tree
#

i built tala with 1.8 blocks for java, so I’d love to go back and add more colors and vibes

crisp ginkgo

i find it very pretty, the colors are gorgeous

understandable

crisp ginkgo

stark cairn
#

^

halcyon tree
#

i knowww, it’s hard to think of more ways to innovate the game that don’t take too much dev time

#

we like to add more than just maps when we update our games to keep them fresh, but sometimes with hide maps is just all we (the players) want

astral fractal
#

i really think block lvls and jump solid would add so much….so many more spots and more incentive to hide without changing the core of the game

crisp ginkgo
#

^^

astral fractal
#

i’m not sure what would go into developing those tho so

halcyon tree
#

i do miss jump solid ngl 😭 but that part isn’t up to me, and sometimes confused players who weren’t aware of it

#

block levels would definitely be fun though! again not up to me, but maybe next time the devs plan an update i’ll have a couple ideas, hehe

paper maple
#

😮

halcyon tree
#

i gotta go for now! but i’ll play later and take some lil notes on the maps

crisp ginkgo
#

but maybe, with block levels AND jumpsolid / dropsolid, players will consider hiding more as opposed to running. Yes, a lot of new players won't understand how to use it but it makes playing the game as an experienced player so much more fun.

halcyon tree
#

just remember to keep feedback constructive and that our intentions as builders is for everyone to love and play our maps :)

astral fractal
#

thanks for all the info! ur work is much appreciated

stark cairn

thank you for listening to us and also for your messages

im trying to be as constructive as i can windows11skull they really dont have much going for them though

woeful iris
#

I just played harvest and i thought it was a good map, a little open in the middle but thats nothing new cough townsquare, prip, tala cough

glad stirrup
#

idk but all the open looks the same

crisp ginkgo
#

harvest is way too big

glad stirrup
#

there isnt anything drawing you to the open parts of the new maps

crisp ginkgo
#

its JUST possible to get 1 route in with no runners

glad stirrup
#

its just open because there was nothing to put there

stark cairn
#

for their dimension they're much more bare than the maps you mentioned

glad stirrup
#

yeah

glad stirrup
#

the harvest open is just identical walls and identical leaf clump

astral fractal
#

you could go solid with a block of air under you

crisp ginkgo
#

I honestly think Hive should build more futuristic-themed maps because the Arcade lobby is gorgeous, I think there's a lot of potential in that area, and it's unique to almost all hns maps

stark cairn
#

if you jumped on the last second you'd stay on air basically

astral fractal
#

and also go solid over the edges of blocks rather than directly on top of one

astral fractal
#

and you could also drop solid which was harder but then there would be 2 blocks of air underneath ur block

crisp ginkgo
#

this USED to be a thing here i believe

glad stirrup
#

MMMM

astral fractal
#

which really opens up the possibilities for spots

dark token
astral fractal
#

you just jump right before going solid and you see ur block soldify

dark token
#

oh cool

stark cairn
#

its like having a little barrier under you

dark token
#

theoretically a bunch of players can use this to make a staircase for another player

crisp ginkgo
#

but barriers would prevent this

astral fractal
#

yeah you just need good barriers

crisp ginkgo
#

theres already a lack of barriers on some maps (notably prip)

astral fractal
#

and most people don’t play with that many friends lol

stark cairn
#

yeah we used to do stairs a lot of times on java, but they never impacted the game since we had barriers covering

crisp ginkgo
#

theres no point having a rule against it here (like there was on java I believe) as a lot of bedrock players dont listen

astral fractal
#

nobody ever was able to use it to get oom in java iirc

crisp ginkgo
#

or dont know about the rule full stop

glad stirrup
#

praying whoever made hacienda comes back to hns

crisp ginkgo

pretty sure that was kwirky

i bumped into the barriers earlier and thought it was just a misplacement, maybe they did it on purpose

It's not even a bad spot considering how mediocre chime is for hiding, the only good spot is on the roof of one of the things

i also LOVE this game.

ive been mentally picking out the exact reasons that the new maps dont fit the game at all

i dont think its normal to think abt hns this much

no it’s so normal

storm mirage
#

I’ve come to the conclusion that for noobs and runners harvest is a beautiful map

#

And chimes is decent

#

Chimes is a seeker map but with options for runners

quartz grove
#

They're not bad maps.... not my favorite though

storm mirage
#

Not at all bad maps

quartz grove
#

Nope, they're good maps, huge really. Gonna take some time to memorize them.

storm mirage
#

Yup

#

Chimes seems easy enough, I already have like half the map from the 3 runner games I’ve played

#

Harvest is gunna be a struggle tho lol

quartz grove
#

Chime would be easier to memorize then Harvest, Harvest is literally huge. I did fine some interesting spots though

storm mirage
#

Ya

#

Harvest is a runner map tho

quartz grove
#

Totally. Could be a decent hiders map. You never know.
I can see Chime as a Seekers map mostly with runners being the main ones enjoying it.

heavy socket
#

Harvest huh?

storm mirage
#

Ya

#

Harvest is goated

glad stirrup
#

i memorised them but i think theyre rlly clunky and empty

storm mirage
#

Harvest could have more noob spots to be sure

glad stirrup
#

and they look way more difficult to hide well on

storm mirage
#

Like in the stalls and stuff

glad stirrup
#

yeah true

#

i just feel like its a bit tipped over with bad elements

storm mirage
#

Eh

glad stirrup
#

there are good ones but idk weird balance

storm mirage
#

It’s for sure a good map

#

But yea the balance is a bit off

glad stirrup
#

i think it could be but i rlly dont like it rn

#

mabye ill warm up to them

storm mirage
#

Seeking on harvest feels like running on talavera

#

If there’s anyone good then ur screwed

paper maple
#

Disagree

storm mirage
#

And it feels kinda empty

glad stirrup
#

i also genuinely dont think you can be a good hider on that map

glad stirrup
#

anyone good would have to beat u by running

storm mirage
#

Already found some goated spots

glad stirrup
#

which is fine ofc but imbalanced

#

alright ill take ur word on it

storm mirage
#

But that’s how most maps work lol

glad stirrup
#

mabye

#

i feel like lots of maps have places that good ppl often miss

#

all the like weird little corners in harvest were like leaf holes only

storm mirage
#

And barrels

glad stirrup
#

mabye ill have to look again

storm mirage
#

And there’s a hay spot that seems perfect for me

#

Would u wanna duo seek on it sometime

glad stirrup
#

a lot of the maps felt like they had lots of wasted space that just took up time with no added aesthetic

storm mirage
#

I gotta learn the map anyways

glad stirrup
#

mabye another day i played a bunch of them earlier

storm mirage
#

K

glad stirrup
#

but yeah i dont think ive seeked w u before

storm mirage
#

I never felt the need to

glad stirrup
#

like i didnt understand the point of the fields on harvest

storm mirage
glad stirrup
#

one field is fine but why is there so much field it takes away so much from the map

storm mirage
#

#

It’s a farm bro 💀

glad stirrup
#

of lines of oak leaves? nightmare for people who havent memorised the map its imbalanced

storm mirage
#

Obv there’s fields

glad stirrup
#

yeah but some of it couldve been cut off or they couldve made it less empty

glad stirrup
#

ive been in farms before you can make stuff more interesting

storm mirage
#

Or birch

storm mirage
#

There are very few oak leaves on that map I think

#

Unless they changed the oak leaf texture

glad stirrup
#

there are 1 block tall piles of oak leaves everywhere

#

oh

#

idk mabye

storm mirage
#

Mabye

glad stirrup
#

mabye my java tp is messing with it? i was thinking it should be a different leaf if there needed to be that many leaves

#

can u send me a screenshot next time u find a hider in a leaf pile

#

if thats not an inconvenience

storm mirage
glad stirrup

is that a bedrock block
