Before you start hating, hear me out on these things and please think about what I am proposing.

Part 1: Maps

Most maps on BrokenLens amazing, some of my favorites are Paris, Ruined Kingdom, Tree, Music, Mushroom, Sunny, etc. However there are a few ones that I don't find awful, I find GOD AWFUL.

First map: Station. This map is just really boring. It looks really bland and a lot of the time if you don't get any good things in your chests (which I will talk about later) you will end up with a wooden or stone sword the whole game, even if you go to the middle.

Second map: Mario. I have a few problems with this map. First of all, one chest is problematic, it's very much luck based and it is quite annoying. Also this map doesn't have a crafting table, making it really annoying if you got to craft something quickly. The middle isn't horrible and is better than other maps, but it isn't perfect. Even with so many chests it's kinda annoy to break tons of green wool, especially if your in a fight.

Third Map (by far the worst): Modern. This map is just really bad all the way through. First of all, only one chest, always a dealbreaker. But as you play this map more you start to realize how annoying it is. The spiral staircase seems like a good idea, but it is executed very badly. It is nearly impossible to engage in an actual melee fight, as you will just end up getting hit off the small little island in one hit. The middle is also quite annoying. I for one dislike small middles because they are difficult to Enderpearl to. This map is the lowest of the low in my opinion.

How to fix: Remove the maps and replace them with great maps like the ones I mentioned before.

Part 2: Kits

When I learned that BrokenLens had kits, I was very excited. However, I was disappointed in the long run. The point of kits are to start you out with weapons or armour just in case you wanna rush or you are attacked however some of the kits are overpowered because they are literally almost impossible to get in game. Here are two kits I have problems with.

Kit 1: Archer. This kit is really annoying. The fact that you can only get arrows from this kit and not ingame really annoys me. A kit should be a starter for items you can actually practically get. Even if you buy a bow, you have to collect arrows by picking up already shot ones which is just impractical.

Solution: Add bows and arrows to the regular chests.

Kit 2: TNT. Wow this kit is more god awful than the Archer kit. First of all, TNT is practically impossible to obtain in game. You have to get on the map castle, make it to middle without dying, get the TNT and a redstone torch and by that time you can just melee the last remaining 1 to 2 players. Not to mention how annoying it is to be underground mining because you didn't get a decent weapon and some TNT KIT comes and blows up your island with ease.

Solution: Remove TNT kit.

Part 3: Chests

This part is talking about the chests, specifically the items they contain. At first chests look balanced and fair, but you are very wrong. Half the time you get a diamond armour and a diamond sword, the other time you get leather armour and no decent weapon. This makes players either overpowered or underpowered. The chests need to be balanced out so everyone gets a decent weapon and decent armour. Look at Hypixel on Java edition, they have well balanced chests in all modes. I think it would be beneficial for BrokenLens to do similar things.

Solution: Balance chests

Part 4: Small things

Here is a quick list of small things I believe should be changed.

-Hitting someone into the void counts as a kill.

-Enderpearl cooldown lowered.

-More food (you use it to gain health soooooo)

-Bigger middles

Conclusion:

So guys I hope you enjoyed this mini essay type thing explaining what I think should be improved in Skywars. I hope that the staff team might hear me out on a couple of ideas. Skywars is the game I play most and I believe that these changes would benefit the game and the community.

Sincerely,

I honestly don't think tnt is a problem, there's like 5 second timer to get away, unlike arrows

Also some people like using tnt and it takes skill to use that correctly and smartly

Also sky wars has it easy on 'op' kits

It's almost impossible to win on sg/tsg and mb without buster or knight kit
View reply.
 
tbh only part i agree with is the modern map- it just sucks, and void assists counting as kills. other than that i feel like you’re only complaining because you haven’t found the right technique/kit to help you win yet. want more food? choose farmer or buster. wanna get more arrows? choose archer. also you can just mine to get items and get wood to make a crafting table:p but yeah, small changes should be added.

i’m not really picky about the maps but mario & modern aRe lacking a bit of chests xd

as for the kits, i disagree. the archer kit gives you 16 arrows and a bow to start right? you have to use those to your advantage. if you miss and you run out, then thats your fault for missing (not to sound rude ffjajdj). the tnt kit is annoying when its used “incorrectly” but it has its pros. i dont think it would need to be removed.

skywars is all about strategy, figure out a way to outsmart them.

i do agree on the enderpearl cooldown though. it could be shortened just a tAd bit (⌒-⌒; )

Fair enough. A lot of the time the TNT kit is used incorrectly in my opinion. But I do not dislike Archer as much as many players use it in the right way. I just wish you were able to get bows in game.

You don't like those maps because they are tiny , solution: get better at surviving and/or leave the current game and join a new one

Not to mention how annoying it is to be underground mining because you didn't get a decent weapon and some TNT KIT comes and blows up your island with ease.

Solution: Remove TNT kit.
Your solutions are contrary to find who duplicates and if the tnt is an awful one, then why even bother to use it, i personally know how to use and counter it so I see absolutely no problems with it


Part 4: Small things

-Hitting someone into the void counts as a kill.

things I agrree with:
Nothing
Things I disagree:
The fact that you didn't put effort to killing a player to rather push then off an island doesn't really make sense, so that's why it counts as assist

-if the cooldown were to be reduced , it's be harder to tell who has creative hacks and who doesn't, and makes it annoying to chase someone down

--More food=no bueno, matches would last longer (possibly 3x longer), would be harder to tell who duplicates or not

-bigger mids would be Paris, RK/Medieval,ECT, I disagree because that's where the "sky" part comes

I see that you’re messages aren’t considered as spam anymore


I disagree with your idea on kits. They’re special perks that people work to to buy and use them. And as Phoe said, using the TNT kit takes some skill. Yes you find it annoying but people just adapt to it. And the archer kit, how many arrows were you talking about in each chest? Because if you have over a decent amount.....

The islands are just right if you know how to survive on them, so if you keep on dying on those maps, then it’s not the islands’s fault.

And balancing out the chests like Hypixel does? I don’t think that BL would like to be influenced or turned into a mini version of Hypixel

Alright
I think that you can hang on for one second
There were points that I think we're valid and understandable but not many that should end up being changed

The maps that are mentioned here are all great and they all bring on a challenge when there is only one chest through getting all of the chests on Station. (I don't like Mario thou tbh) I think you are right about Station being a pretty bland map and I think it could use some work on it.

Kits

I honestly don't think tnt is a problem, there's like 5 second timer to get away also some people like using tnt and it takes skill to use that correctly and smartly
I think Phoe has a point here. You don't see many people who know how to use Creeper kit right.
You do also have a point with the Archer kit part where you can't get any bow or arrows in chests. I think maybe just add arrows to the chests and you can buy the bow from the tool shop.

Chests
I think the chests are balenced enough. If you don't like it then get your ♥♥♥ to middile before anyone else.

Last part

#VoidKills4Life

Epearl cool down should be reduced to 30 seconds

Middle sizes are fine

There is way too much food as it is. I think there should be less food. Plus the more food there is the longer the game lasts.

I was just using Hypixel as an example. It is the most popular server on Java. Tons of others balance out chests I was just using Hypixel as an example because everyone knows what it is. I do not want Broken lens to be the next Hypixel.

Second map: Mario.

The maps test your ''survival'' skills though, as they cause you to alternate strategies.
1. Station always gives me good armor, weapons, and tons of food. I guess that's luck xD
2. I think they should enable the second chest in Mario though, because one can't really attack with 10 blocks or rush to mid with them ._.
3. Modern is one of the easiest maps to pearl to mid, just aim for the big a** tree. As for the stairs, they're good for knocking people if you get a good use of them, just block the way up for your enemy to not be able to come up and hit them off. And if you're coming up, hit the opponent while coming up so you don't get knocked off that easily.

B
Part 2: Kits
Kit 1: Archer
Kit 2: TNT.
1. You can always choose Archer kit. Also you can mine iron ores and pick up a feather, stick, and flint, and craft 4 arrows.
2. There are some good TnT users, but I personally want the TnT to be nerfed a little ;-;

Part 4: Small things

Here is a quick list of small things I believe should be changed.

-Hitting someone into the void counts as a kill.

-Enderpearl cooldown lowered.

-More food (you use it to gain health soooooo)

-Bigger middles
- Technically the void is killing 'em xD not you.
- YES ENDER PEARL COOLDOWN PLS
- more food?! middle contains so much food, just get there first.
- middles are already big enough

my conclusions:
You are one of those dudes who use Buster kit and like big maps and do not like to get knocked off, and prefer maps with a ton of starting chests like Medieval and want iron armor straight away since the start.

wow i got inspired

You shouldn't tag vertx unless it's needed
Also no need to tag that many people, 1 or 2 staff are fine

Suggestions like these can only be input by the owner or the developer, as they change the game mechanics and how they work. Plus,vertx does most of the coding
