Now that the purge has ended on Infinity 1-4, we would like to hear from you on what you thought of the first purge. What did we do wrong? What could be improved on? What did we do right? Is this something that you would like to see continue?
I think the Purge could do with a little improvement, E.g Griefing tools unbanned, and maybe the server selling some TNT or something along the lines so the player has something to spent there Myms on.
I think when a purge starts in future we should first clear anything still on the market and then replace it with a selection of explosives and other "griefing tools" so players can spend their saved up myms before they get reset.[DOUBLEPOST=1434339211][/DOUBLEPOST]Another idea I had which might be a bit tricky but should still be possible, would be to compile and publish a list of claim coordinates when the purge starts so players can find other people's bases more easily!
First i think more time is needed , springing the purge like it was on inf made a lot of people angry, 2 days was not enough, a week would of been better. The other thing was no time was set (exp) it just had a date , no time was set as to when it would start.
Honestly speaking, I didn't find much fun in demolition. Destruction using the staff of power (9x9x9 without safety mode enabled) takes literally seconds. I'd rather enjoy planting some sort of completely OP explosives, nuclear-power-driven annihilation leaving craters behind, but something what actually requires some logistics and planning ahead, higher-class destruction. Mindless swirling and hitting random blocks is good for cavemen.[DOUBLEPOST=1434373322][/DOUBLEPOST] The map is really so small that it doesn't seem to be necessary to post bases' coordinates. After months of exploration, everybody basically knows what is where. And if the don't, well, that's some of an adventure added to discover "hidden" places.
The issue with the time already was that there have been many many players that wanted to start over and not wait another 2 days. Extending it a week would be extremely bad for them. On top if we announce another week earlier we double the time. Those players would now need to wait 2 weeks in order to start over. We had a case where we announced it 1 week ahead, what happened was an empty server, new players that started on obviously got mad at us when the reset hit (it was announced in the auto broadcast) and the forum being spammed with "I wanna start playing, I don't wanna wait any longer.." What I watched with the inf reset now is that players started on node 5 instead of waiting 2 days for the new ones. That is really something that should not happen. Idk, if the entire thing is worth it or how we could design it so more are happy.
the Purge my problem with it (slind you said alot of problems) is that it wasn't obvious that it was currently going on, which didn't help anyone i think, maybe say that the purge will have 2 days beforehand, and during have an auto-broadcast will tell you it's going on so you aren't confused
I do not know if other countries have exams on the same period as we do, but I missed it because of that. :/ If this is indeed the case (and possible) can it be outside those exam periods?
