I know this one is a big one, but I think it’s a good one. One issue on this server is we cannot “play” with a friend. Like, sure we can join the same game but eventually one of us will die. Only one wins. Adding a teams mode would be so you and your partner can go out together and have the chance to both win the game. I think a lot more players would play if they had the opportunity to actually play with a friend. I know it might take a long time, but it should eventually be considered in the long run. How it would work: Ultimately it would be up to Noobcrew to decide how many players would be in a teams game, but there should be a countdown timer to start the game. Chances are, not every game might not fill. So, there should be like a countdown time, much like the current system. And everybody who did not invite someone to their team would automatically be assigned a random teammate who didn’t invite someone as well, if there’s an odd number then yeah only one would be alone but I don’t think that’s a major problem, certainly not a big one to not consider this. Commands to invite someone to your team should be like: /team invite Triggered /team accept Triggered Other Command: /team chat or /tc for team chat
A duo and triple type of thing would be cool! Full support. Also, maybe having other maps for this would be cool. Custom 2v2v2v2v2v2v2v2 maps would be awesome! Maybe picking popular movie themes as well would be nice, so you could have even cooler battles against and with your friends! The team commands idea would also be cool. Maybe a /tc for teamchat as well? Just a thought
Support! In my opinion, I think the active skywars players would love to see some new changes added into this game-mode. Having this implemented would be amazing. It would totally be so much fun
Support! I think it would 'spice up' the game and encourage more people to play as it would be easier to play with friends as Tog stated
I think this is a great idea, but the way it is implemented is essential to see that the feature succeeds and is popular with the players. How often would a ‘team’ game occur compared to the regular solo games? Would there be 2 portals for each game-mode? Currently there is not an abundance of players queueing for the regular game at any given time, another mode would split up the ‘currently playing’ online players into different modes. Perhaps every 1 in 5 rounds is team game, allowing players to join each other, and everyone else is put into random teams. Balancing would have to be increased here for when teams are unbalanced. In conclusion, it is not a bad idea, but the specifics of it should be polished. Input from the server staff or admins would benefit.
I don't see two modes working with the current playerbase size. It seems on most servers a team mode gets less players then the solo mode. With our current playerbase that would mean it would take a long time to start a team game (especially if you're doing one with twice as many players like on most servers), meaning the teams mode would likely die out and only be played occasionally. Even if it did have some players, we would still be splitting the playerbase. Meaning all games would take longer to start, leading to all players having a worse experience. If the playerbase was larger, sure, but I don't see this working out with the current server size.
Yknow what's funny? I'm fairly certain that this is actually already with the plugin. There used to be a way on the old server to do Teams, but this was 5 years ago and I have the memory of a goldfish. I'll have to look through the current skywars plugin again just to see if it's still there, but it isn't hard to just enable it. (The (FFA) tag on the end of a win represents the gamemode, and it's obvious there was intended to be multiple gamemodes).
I mean sure support, but does Skywars really have enough players to actually make it a popular and active mode? It's rare you actually see people teaming in games or asking for teams, so I feel like it would get added, be popular for 2 days then dies out completely as people prefer FFA. That's just my opinion though, can be proven wrong.
i'm pretty sure loose teaming is allowed in skywars already, and one person has to remain for the game to end so technically this is already included? like Tuber said, with the current player size, 2 separate gamemodes just seems a bit too ambitious atm. by "loose teaming" i mean the team mates have no obligations towards eachother, can still "betray" one another and kill eachother, but can also go round the map killing others & share loot etc, but there still has to only be one winner. I guess it would be cool to add a /team feature so you can avoid killing/getting betrayed by your teammate, and to win as a team, but then again that could be an unfair advantage to single players. i think for now, with the current size of the server, 8-players all going up against eachother works fine, but if the server does get bigger i think it could be a good addition. neutral
