Hey everyone, today i'm posting this because ive had about a week to reflect on the changes made to the MCGamer Network and i'm here to tell what I have thought and listen to what you guys have thought about it.

So first of all, the update caused a tremendous, amount of lag on the server due to the 1.7 release. This was fixed fairly quickly but this was a downfall to me because it was a struggle to get a recording with that going on against me. There was not much they could have done about the lag, when they first switched but that's over now and lets move on.

Second, the new hub, I have found to be an amazing step up from the previous hub, due to the fact that games that people found to be not fun or unpopular, were removed from the hub. This makes the hub look very clean and simplistic. I again love the new hub in comparison to the last however there is one thing about the new hub that I wish MCGamer would have kept. That is separate lobby's for separate games. For example, I would go to the survival games hub when I access SG through my compass. I really liked that feature and it is now simply a part of the hub. With the addition of a lot more base hubs, I wish there was some sort of feature in a plugin of some sorts to evenly distribute the amount of players in a single hub to prevent lag in one single hub. This is just an Idea but if any developers see this, you should get on that! xD

Third, the new anti-cheat system. The new anti-cheat system is fantastic! To quote Devin (Lead Developer) "our new anti-cheat system can now detect and punish for an even wider range of hacks". with that said, im up for anything to get rid of hackers! xD

And lastly, something that actually did not come out in this update but will be added in the very near future. Something that has been very highly anticipated. Solo SG has been announced and will be added very shortly. I myself will be using this game mode for a majority of my SG recordings because teams can ruin my games and get in the way of my playing. So I think that this new game mode is a step up for everyone who actively plays on the server.

Thank you everyone for sticking around, and if you made it this far in the thread tell me what you guys think of what I wrote. What do you guys think of the new update? And is there anything you guys might want to see get changed in the future? Let me know down below! <3

Personally, I love the downgrade back to 1.7, it was more an upgrade than a downgrade IMO. I noticed a decrease of extreme reach with the addition of 1.7 once again, pvp seems more fair and fun again!

You reviewed this very well and i honestly think that its good and bad for certain people because some cant even play cause of how used they were to 1.8. <3

Aside from minor glitches, I have absolutely 0 negative things to say about the update and what's to come. I love 1.7, I'm happy we limited the number of games on the servers... I just love everything and how it is. MCGamer is going in a completely positive path right now, just in time for summer! :D

Anti-CHEAP taking my bans? Forget this.

No, the anti-cheat is awesome and all in all, it's pretty awesome. Some people complain about 1.7, but it's all good. And Solo SG is what I'm happiest about, I cannot wait.

All in all, great update in my opinion.
