Hi MCSG Fans! I've been a long time player of MCSG, ever since SG1 was the only map. I thought it was time to express how I feel about MCSG now. I'm writing this anonymously so no disrespect is lost for ANYONE.
Okay, how do I start off? How about the actual game.
I just wanted to start off with saying why V2 was more of a Downgrade than a upgrade to the MCSG servers.
List of disappointments..
I know many problems are being sorted out, and I understand that, which is making me feel a bit better inside. The first being the tier 2 chests. Let's start off with a normal game of Survival Games 4 on 3 diffrent servers. I conducted 3 runs on three different servers.
Click the spoiler for the results..
Do you see the difference? Did you know what I died from later that game on that other server?
Guess.
Do it. Ironic enough, it was-
Should I mention you can't even die of starvation? I mean it's not the ridiculous amount of earnings in chests, but if you somehow were unable to get enough food, it would drop you to half a heart, and that's it. You're still alive.
....
Okay, so next topic I wanted to talk about was the quality of the maps.
There has been several threads before saying how the quality maps have dropped, NOT going to say which ones so I don't hurt anyone else's feelings... But, yes. They unfortunately have. Although again, I do see that MCSG has made an attempt with fixing this issue by adding better quality maps, which I'm happy of, now it is just time to remove the, ones that are a bit lower in quality..
Next topic I wanted to talk about was, well, the staff. Whoa put down the pitchforks and torches! I'm going to quote someone's post anonymously.
Hold on I KNOW the limit was raised to 15, so for that reason they shouldn't be demoted or the anything, and exceptions can be made for young people aswell, but is there any ACTIVE moderators, that are over 18? The average server on several video games including minecraft's staff is around 16-30.
Why is our staff made of people still going through puberty, I don't trust people who are 13-15 moderating our servers. "But that doesn't mean they can't moderate good!"
I KNOW that, But if your moderators are just full of kids and teenagers, then maybe I see a reason for all those complaints on mods.
How do you get into being a moderator? A well written application. HAHA-WHAT? Okay, I see that having proper grammar and such is important, but you shouldn't be allowed in JUST because your application was good. You need to have SOME experience in moderation. NO, moderating your own server does not count, think about it. If you got accepted to moderate a server, it's because you knew what you were doing, but if you're moderating your server, who's there to tell you what to do? Yourself. You make your own rules, and if you're moderating your own server with your own guidelines, then that's bad.
Edit: Okay, hold on, that wasn't the way to put it. (Lack of sleep, okay?)
What I mean by your guidelines is your own judgement. Everybody in their lives has that one time where you must use your own judgement, because it's not listed in the rule book that moderators and us must follow.
The next thing I wanted to talk about is the ungratefulness of some people. Not mentioning which. I see various complaints on the new/old revamped lobby. I was so happy, sure it was changed a little, but I was filled with joy. I log on the forums expecting to see happy people, so very happy, but what do I see? People are ANGRY. They complain that Team Elite RUINED THE LOBBY. People LOSING RESPECT for Team Elite, the one that SERVED you AMAZING maps, which we have VERY FEW OF! What do I say? They touch the lobby a little bit and all you want is the old untouched lobby? Do you not realize that it's gone, with very few copies left? Do you realize that Team Elite had to build it? Yeah, I was really disappointed, and I think everyone should think about it.

List of disappointments..
*Insane increase of loot in chests
*Announcing who dies (Really don't like this since it ruins the suspense the Survival Games are supposed to offer)
*Lightning strikes where someone dies (It can give away your position, and can end the game for you.)
*Decrease of map quality
*Maps that were removed that shouldn't be? (Opinions?)
*I can see the edge of the force field from 85% of maps, this shouldn't be happening.
(More will be added later)

I run my route on Survival Games 4 on MCSG
My earnings....
Chainmail Chest, Iron Helmet, Golden Leggings, Iron Boots. Enough Iron to make a sword, as well as 4 sticks. (ALOT Of other junk, Arrows, Flint, Gold.. etc.) And not to mention, SO much food that can last probably a minecraft THREE MINECRAFT WEEKS.
I run my route on Survival Games 4 on a typical Survival Games Server (Normal Default Plugin)
My earnings....
Gold sword, just leather leggings, 2 raw meat, and serveral other junk that I never got to use.
