Badlion Ask Us Almost Anything
Don't know if this is Taboo. As owners and client-side anti-cheat developers, what are your thoughts on CheatBreaker? I know this client is still not released but I just want to hear your opinions.

Have you ever thought about adding a ping cap or not allowing players to que arena if they have 150 ms + or maybe adding separate arena stats for every region, kind of like how meetups stats work.
We've thought about ping cap, but the internet is too unstable and people would just use VPNs to get around it.

Ok I'm like flowing with ideas. Have you ever thought about adding SG meet up? or any other forms of meetup?
Yes, but all open is on standby until UHC6/S15 are out

I'm presuming the CM application is changing. Is there a drastic change in the essay questions or just some small tweaks?

What has been your proudest moment in terms of Badlion?

Archy, what's one thing you dislike about Gberry and vice reversa

Do you think Mojang has any interest whatsoever about the PvP aspect or not?
Some is tweaks, some are totally new questions.

The proudest moments are typically when we do something seen as impossible, such as an autobanning anticheat, S12 massive team fights of over 100v100s and such (wars), original UHC of over 250 players when no one could support 100. Several of these moments are coming up soon too.

Gberry is very, very quick to judge situations and then it's very hard to change his opinion unless you can prove it wrong with facts/statistics.

From what I've seen, they do have a lot of interest in PvP, they have very little interest in the current PvP community though.

In terms of the opposite for Archy he is quite locked on his ideas as well for what he wants.

Do you think that season 15 and other upcoming updates will return those average 6-7k players and 9-10k at peaks?(right now its not doing too good)

Do you think badlion will ever reach the size of Hypixel , or at least GommeHD?

Why do you think people are hating so much on badlion right now and will that ever change soon with this current community?

Will you ever consider a change of the badlion theme such as scoreboard , chat etc?This can turn out good and give a better feel to the server.

Do you have any updates to make the pot pvp community play badlion again? After all badlion merged with the biggest pot server and eventually the community split apart(not talking about cheaters)

Do you think the merge could of gone better?

How will you revive skywars and CTF since right now they are completely dead?

Do you think other gaming communities will ever acknowledge minecraft as an esport? At this moment most of the people are even ashamed to tell their friends that they play this game

Last opinion about ultra/minehq/cheatbreaker?

Twitch emotes to badlion client ?:oo

Lastly do you think Mojang will finally start listening to us about how minecraft pvp should be?


I wrote this rly fast so some of this questions were prob stupid. Ill think of more later \o/
Probably, I would say 5-8k is more accurate, it won't be an explosive growth like you are expecting.

Yes, eventually

People are hating on BL because it's the cool thing to do. Most of these people don't realize without BL, most of their servers/gamemodes would be dead or never evolved to what they are now. Honestly this happens about every 9-10 months in this community (last time it happened was fall 2016, before that was late 2015, and then early 2015). Each time it happens, we receive a huge dip of players, a lot of players/content creators leave, and then we explode again once we make massive updates. Out with the old, in with the new.

Maybe, but we're more focused on gameplay right now.

Nope, the potpvp community will never accept BL and most would stop playing if all potpvp servers shut down besides BL instead of playing on BL. We could also make potpvp on BL gods greatest gift to MC and most of them still wouldn't come back. It's a big reason we don't focus much on it at all, it's a vicious cycle.

The only way the merge would have gone better was if we could have figured out the delayed KB (even kohi devs/owners couldn't figure it out) and we didn't ban over 50% of their active playerbase between JD 7-9. The random delayed KB was an awful fucking bug and it wasn't until jan 2017 that I found a way to replicate it, and then it was fixed in 15 minutes :(

Until the MC community itself does, no. 10 years ago all our current esports were in the same situation. Until the community itself does, no one else will even think about doing so.

Already given enough in the thread

Not sure if I can legally, would have to check

Only if premium succeeds and ESL LANs and such take off which will greatly grow the community to more than a small niche community overall.

You said in your streams that Badlion will have more players than Hypixel by the end of the year, do you still stand by that? (archy)
No, I would probably move that back to 2018 end or 2019. Too many delays and such have stagnated the growth of BL and it will take a while to recover. I do think BL will grow severely soon though and probably be in the top 5ish, but hypixel has also doubled in size since I stated that stuff which I did NOT see coming.

Are you guys aware of the lag issues in terms of the Badlion Client? I would love to use the client but I haven't been able to due to the lack of frames when I launch using this client. Also would you be open to adding some other features such as an arrow counter?
Yeah we're gonna add more optimizations and more features soon. Optimizations were put on hold for Open related development as the optimization devs also are developers for open.

Check out patch 1.2 when it comes around. Gonna be heavily focussed on frame improvements and better qualify of life stuff.

Why you don't take OldAnimation for 1.7 animations of badlion premium, it's better than LabyMod.
Because we legally can't use someone elses code

We didn't talk much during my time as Staff; however, I'd really like to know what did you think of my work as a Staff Member.
I don't remember much, but I believe you were one of the staff that focused on closet cheaters which I respect.

Will the AU region be removed anytime soon? (Hopefully not)
I don't believe so, the only way AU gets removed is if datacenters keep failing us down there.

(0!+0!+0!)! which is (1+1+1)! which is 3! which is 6 - cute little puzzle, the fact that the only way to make 0 another number in itself is to factorial it or use another non-zero numbers really gave it away though.

No, not yet

We will let the partners release some footage when it's a bit less buggy.

Another question: Are you gonna add HCF in the future?
Or any kinda of potpvp based gamemode?
No, I've never wanted to do faction servers and before gberry joined I said I will never support factions on BL, and I still stand by that statement. Most of the factions servers that have existed on BL (save the vanilla one) I never even logged into.
Maybe

Could you make a throwback season and bring back s9 or 10 since 80% of the players that Badlion has now didn't play those season which were fire? This would include bringing back the old maps, kits, lobby, Eu/Na 1 2 3, old kb and hit reg.
There is no way to do this with our current systems. That's the wonderful/awful thing about BL - even if you got a hold of our plugins you'll never get them to work.

Partners have access to hand out 5 1-week codes each day. We'll also be doing more giveaways.
We already have one in Turkey, and if we do add one in the middle east it'll most likely be in Israel.
Yes, eventually.
Idk, minecraft community doesn't like change and would rather stick to 3rd party teamspeaks and get their IP stolen and complain about ddoses.

Yeah, for 10$
It was worth a shot.

Would anything make you change your mind about shutting down ts (even if people chipped in money for it )
Why do people want an inferior program in every single way?
