Hey everyone. So the past week has been utter hell for me in terms of Badlion. There has been a lot of stuff going on Badlion wise and personal life wise recently. I am here to make an apology to the community. Minecraft 1.9 has been too unstable the past week and a half. We really should have delayed the launch of Badlion 1.9 by another couple of weeks. There have been the following issues:- Invisible Players
- Random attack damages
- Shields not working
- Fishing rods not working
- Bows not working
- Arrows being invisible or not hitting target
- Kits having glitches with some of the items
- The entire server crashing/freezing up for hours at a time
- Other misc bugs
Needless to say the above things are not acceptable and have been a mix of issues from different levels. Some of them we have been in control of, some of them we have not. For this all I would like to apologize and say that we can do better than this. It really sucks because Minecraft 1.9 was literally released at the worst fucking time possible for me. I have been very busy in March and earlier months or later months would have been better for me.
As a result of the issues we have decided to reset all of the ELO's. We are taking down the servers tonight until this coming weekend and we will be re-launching the system with more testing. We will have staff internally test features and then we will possibly have an open beta towards Thursday or Friday.
As a token of our gratitude we will be doing the following in addition to testing/fixing gameplay issues/balancing stuff better:
- Extending our 20% off sale for an extra week
- Turning back on unlimited ranked matches for Badlion 1.9 during the relaunch weekend
- Giving a smooth gameplay experience (bug free hopefully)
I am personally very sorry that there have been so many issues. This project became very overwhelming since we have had to go back and redo a lot of our past work. Thank goodness that is done and we can now focus on moving forward and not having to redo our old work again.
Please note nothing is changing with Badlion 1.7/1.8 at the moment. Everything is fine in that regard. There were minimal issues with the season 12 launch on the 1.7/1.8 setup.
Also this coming weekend we will be launching the Cosmetics that we have been working on (thanks to @Erouax). This was his JrDev project and the features are really cool. We will be integrating and fixing any 1.9 issues with them (they will be available in 1.7/1.8 also) this coming week.
Thanks to everyone for your understanding and I hope we can relaunch with a smoother system than the past 1.5 weeks have been for Badlion 1.9.
tl;dr Too many issues with 1.9 and ratings on it because of bugs. Relaunching on April 2nd.

It's fine, people can be angry about this or they can just get over it. You are doing a great job, keep up the good work. :)-Matt

Is the sweep attack fixed/changed? It did lots of extra damage than I think it should have dealtPosted on 27 March 2016 - 02:56 PM

I never was able to solidify this as being a bug. Can you detail it out more please.

the sweeping thing is dumb, or just too op. people do it, run away and do it again. just remove it and make a change to that, cause not only is it annoying but also over used…some people just jump and shift repeatedly. i don't know how you can change it, but just dont keep in that sweeping mechanic.Posted on 27 March 2016 - 03:18 PM
inb4 every player duel hands rod and sword and everyone quits 1.9 because it sucks with rods… should only fix whats broken (invis players, server crashes, and kit glitches ect) not what people don't want (rods not working, bows "not" working even though they do now, ect) If you're going to have rods, you should have a build with and without them…Posted on 27 March 2016 - 03:56 PM

You can only do it once every three seconds. What is making the sweep attack such a threat? It's meant to be an AoE (area of effect) attack.

When I played on 1.9, all of the players that had 1600+ elo would basically run, jump, sneak + attack (which is the sweep attack if I'm not mistaken). Each hit would do 3-4 hearts of damage. Specifically the people I fought that used this technique were in SG kit, though I fought one in build who did this too (probably would happen in any kit though). The 'random damage' other than the sweep attack seemed to have been fixed when Smelly confirmed it to be fixed and the fights went as normal.
P.S. 1.9 is what got me interested in Badlion again. I don't know what everyone else is saying with 1.9 being bad, things take time to balance perfectly and players cant expect one season of 1.9 to be just as perfectly balanced as 11 seasons of the previous play styles. +1 for having the balls to make 1.9 workable, and I quite enjoyed the balance

If it's truly an AoE attack, it shouldn't do as much damage (perhaps less damage than a normal attack, or greater cooldown? Whats the likelihood of you actually going to use the sweep attack every 3 seconds? I think it should be more like 5 or higher)
