So I’ve been a long time MineZ player in the Shotbow Network and recently with a little extra time I’ve been slowly playing more and more MineZ with friends. It’s no secret the game mode isn’t what it used to be but the few servers they have for MineZ has been peaking at 30ish players on a good day. I don’t like how Shotbow has moved to 1.9+ and think that’s another reason this great game mode has died down so much, the pvp is pretty terrible, if you can even find anyone that is. So this post really was to see what could be done to bring something like MineZ to Badlion and what other players thought about it. I don’t know if it’s possible for Badlion to acquire the rights to MineZ from Shotbow or if they would have to start from scratch with something new. I know the admins are very busy with other projects but this is just a thought I had, with a server and playerbase that cares about it as much as I do, it would be amazing to see MineZ revived. If you read his whole thing thank you and have a good New Year!

Welcome back beans 0/

Nice idea, but first we could add an unranked minez ladder again to see how the community reacts. My view is that its a dying gamemode anyway (just what I've observed the last few years, feel free to challenge) and so wouldnt make much sense to start developing it straight away without some strong community support, but in an ideal world id love to see the gamemode on the network.



Or we could stick 'UHC' onto the name and everyone will flock to it lol.

UHCZ ?!?!?! It feels worse than clickbait \o/

I believe that this is a wonderful idea in theory, but when put into practice, what will the outcome be?
Obviously there’d be a spectacular gamemode of which Badlion’s playerbase could enjoy, but the question is (and @cringiecake elaborated on this much better than I could): will this gain public support or ultimately lead to a ‘dead’ gamemode?

I personally believe that MineZ being implemented on the Badlion Network would lead to success because it would invite veterans of the original gamemode, as well as an entirely new group of minemen, to the Badlion Network (to conserve time, I’m only stating a condensed form of why I think this is a good idea; I get carried away with writing).

Even so, my speculation could be completely incorrect with what would happen. I’m definitely in favor of people first testing a MineZ kit on Arena PVP as a ‘test’ to observe public behavior and statistics (amount of people playing the kit, feedback via forum posts, etc…)

Regardless of any negatives that COULD occur, however, I support the idea of having MineZ implemented on the Badlion Network!

+1 from me. ( ◠‿◠ )

I'm probably really biased towards the gamemode because it used to be my favorite gamemode ever, but I don't know if it would really work with badlion.
