Down the street, around the corner.
Almost any ELITE new to ELITE Survival leaves upon joining. There are two reasons for this:
1. The area around spawn looks griefed.
2. Barely anyone is on.
Those aren't the only reasons I'm suggesting a map reset. There are way too many bugs on ES. Maybe when a reset happens, a lot of people will talk about it, and someone will FINALLY respond to ES Bug Reports.

Again, when people hear about ES's reset. It will attract more people. Which means, it's more fun for players who play it. It also means for those of you who can't get on creative because it's full, can now join creative. It could mean more money for Party Zone. When they hear about survival, they will buy Elite and join the server!

Corrupted chunks are another thing. When you accidentally build on them, a staff member has to remove it. Resetting the map will remove all of the current corrupted chunks. Maybe update ES to 1.12 or 1.13 (I hope it will be updated to 1.13) so there are not as many corrupted chunks?

Now there is one crucial reason why people don't want a map reset. Their builds will be gone. Yes, Elite Survival has quite some impressive builds there (Not at spawn). Maybe allow them to save their builds to their files somehow. Or import/export it to creative.

A lot of people are saying no to updating ES to 1.13/1.12 because it will decrease the players. You can still do cross versions. As creative is with 1.12. Right now ES is in 1.8, but people from 1.12 can still join. You could update it to 1.12 and still have cross versions alike creative. One more thing, I'd like to argue that on other networks/servers, 1.8 is probably going to be outdated when 1.13 comes out. So it wouldn't be accurate to say that people are going to leave because many people will update to a later version.

Disclaimer) If you reply to this thread, base your opinion for implement/don't implement on the ES Map Reset. Many people tend to base their opinions on the side note for suggestions alike 1.12. Do NOT base your opinion on the suggestions.

* Update it to 1.13 or 1.12. There are more blocks available for us to build with, and there are less bugs.
Would decrease the amount of players massively.

* Respond to the ES bug reports!
Bug reports are dealt with by the bug reports sub team of the QA (feedback Insights) team, we start with the newer ones first so the older ones might take a bit longer to get around to. This is because the newer ones are marked as higher priority because the older ones are typically already resolved.

* Maybe allow players to have w/e for mega builds. But if they don't have enough blocks for the area they are setting. Cancel the w/e action or use the blocks they have but don't fill in the full area.
Don't really like the idea of W/E- it's basically a vanilla survival world and adding w/e would make it unfair in that sense.

Everything else sounds okay.
 
I agree with @Nashhii, it's good except for those things. I'm going to remain neutral though, only because I don't go on ELITE Survival as much as I used to.
 
Lets just face it, any ELITE new to ELITE Survival, leaves upon joining.
This is what I find ELITEs and ELITE+'s do, they join and then they leave. That is a good point.
1. The area around spawn looks griefed.
You can always suggest something to the Build Team by private messaging the build team leader, @WorldEdit_ and tell him about things like this. I'm sure he would appreciate the feedback. You can also give feedback for builds here or on the map ideas thread but specify it's specifically for the ES spawn.
There are way too many bugs on ES. Maybe when a reset happens, a lot of people will talk about it, and someone will FINALLY respond to ES Bug Reports.
Our Bug Reports team, who is apart of the Quality Assurance half of the Quality Assurance and Feedback Team are always trying their best to reply to as many bugs as possible. They are always testing and looking at things to make sure they work okay. If it's taking to long it's either..
a) It's a minor bug that will be dealt with later.
b) Something else is being looked at for Elite Survival that might change many wrong things about it.
I would be patient about it or I would contact @Nashhii for more info on updates for ES.
Maybe update ES to 1.12 or 1.13 so there are not as many corrupted chunks?
A lot of our players are on the 1.8 or 1.12 versions of Minecraft. Updating ES to only 1.12 or 1.13 will only decrease the high chances of players joining ES by a lot. This should definitely not happen, (it has been discussed about before and the idea got denied.)

* Maybe allow players to have w/e for mega builds. But if they don't have enough blocks for the area they are setting. Cancel the w/e action or use the blocks they have but don't fill in the full area.
This is only adding creative to the mix. It's a survival server, taking the entire point of survival away if we use W/E.
* Add a shop.
I have a few questions regarding this "shop."
  1. What would be the shop for?
  2. How can it benefit survival players?
  3. Does it fit in with survival? How and why?
  4. What would be in the shop?
  5. What would the currency for the shop be?
  6. Would a "shop" take away the idea of this being a survival server? Please explain why or why not.
  7. What features will be available in the shop?
  8. Will there be advantages/disadvantages for players? Will it be unfair? Explain.
  9. How will this shop look like? NPC? A little village shop?
  10. Is it necessary to add a store or not?

Thank you for your feedback on Elite Survival. I respect all your points and opinions, but where we are at right now I believe is fine. I'm delighted that you are worried about the bugs and the decreasing of players, but I think many players enjoy ES as is at the moment. If we focus on the bugs and add a few more things to it so we won't have as many problems, we'll be in very good shape. As said before, the Bug Reports team are trying their best at looking at as many Bugs as possible and is trying to reply to them ASAP.

I will stay neutral, since I agree with somethings, but leaning towards a no.
+/-0 (leaning towards -1)

That's pretty much it, here are suggestions for ES reset or not:
* Update it to 1.13 or 1.12. There are more blocks available for us to build with, and there are less bugs.
* Add the silk touch spawner plug in. It's very inefficient to have build a grinder around a spawner, and having to set a home there.
* Respond to the ES bug reports!
* Maybe allow players to have w/e for mega builds. But if they don't have enough blocks for the area they are setting. Cancel the w/e action or use the blocks they have but don't fill in the full area.
* Make it less glitchy for cross versions. Players appear in different areas when riding a minecart and horses/pigs.
* Do not add a /wild so ES doesn't end up looking griefed EVERYWHERE.
* Add a shop.
Sorry but gonna have to give this one a -1 Plus changing it to 1.12-1.13 would get rid of players.. especially me
 
I've experienced numerous bugs when playing Elite Survival in 1.12, therefore I play it in 1.8.
:cool:
 
I’m sure we all respect your opinion but a survival reset most likely wouldn’t be beneficial for the server. It seemed like a good idea but from further discussion it doesn’t seem so good anymore. Lots of people love their builds and are proud of their good work and I’m sure they would be upset if there was a reset. It would draw people away from the game and the server and people most of the time aren’t very motivated to start all their work again.

Pros:

-Would make the game have less glitches

Cons
- A shop would ruin the point of survival
-Not many people play in 1.12-1.13
-People may be very proud of their builds and may not want a reset
-there are lots of bugs in 1.12
-Staff aren’t ignoring the bug resets, they are just very busy most of the time.
-would draw people away from the game


I appreciate your idea but right now it doesn’t seem like a good thing.

-1 from me
 
Map reset required, in my opinion, because if you need something, you can pick the easy route and just ask another player, who probably 3 stacks of everything, which really takes away the point of survival. I know, you can just choose not to ask, but the right way is usually the hardest way.


And as for you melons, basing your response upon the idea of moving to 1.12, are genuinely special, as they’ve clearly said NOT to make your response about that.

And for the people saying “oh I won’t join ES in 1.12 because I’m in 1.8 and I’m it’s so much better here than it is in 1.12 because 1.12 has got glitches” get a hold of yourself, stop being childish and ask yourself why you’re in 1.8.

I want you to base your opinion on the ES Reset. Yes, people like their builds and don't want them to be deleted. But they could somehow save their builds to their files, take screen shots, or export it to creative as I said before.

@Undestifyed
I mainly want you to base your opinion off the reset itself, not suggestions. The suggestions are for ES if it will be reset or not.

The way you put that is extremely rude. There are more reasonable discussions on why players stick with 1.8 instead of 1.12 or 1.13. It might be because of that version crashing their computer or just the extra stuff bothers them and they'd prefer sticking with the oldies.
I said, not to base your vote off of the suggestions... I'm talking about the map reset itself. And about their builds, I clearly said they could be able import/save their builds somehow.

I'm pretty sure you're not understanding everyone's responses. People are giving you good and bad feedback and if this were to be implemented, then there should be a few changes along with it. Your response to Frxya's message had a slight attitude to it that I think you could work on when responding to player's opinions.

i think it would be amazing to have the world reset. the new players will be able to find resources easier. i would love to have 1.12-1.13 added. i think everything else is not needed
 
I don't really see how this would decrease the player count? No one really plays it and when ever I look at it no ones even on. :/ for all I know it could boost the player count on there. As the update hopefully will be near the end of july.
...
Overall I think a reset would be nice. Es has been out for a while more than 2 years I think. And hopefully newer players of es can have more fun instead of picking off where others left off.

Um how was I rude
 
I believe there is plans to reset ES in the future, but there’s no confirmation date and it is unsure how exactly they’re going about with it. I don’t know this for sure, this isn’t a guarantee, so don’t take this as the complete truth. Either way, I do agree it needs to be reset, just certain factors, such as updating it to 1.12/1.13, world edit and shops, aren’t the best idea as not everyone has access to the modes as well as the fact shops and world edit would ruin the point of survival. Maybe having ES compatiable from 1.8-1.13 instead, so everyone is happy? Creative does it, so it is possible. I’m just not sure it’s right specifically for ES.
Just noting as well, we aren’t ignoring the bug reports, we can’t solve every bug at once or check them 24/7, everyone’s in different time zones and others don’t have access to certain places all the time either. There’s a sub team dedicated to this and they will eventually get through the bugs one by one. Even if this is slow to some people, as more and more bugs get submitted, things will eventually be solved. We aren’t prioritizing certain bugs either based on popularity. We go through it based on different factors.

Lets face it survival gets boring and then we start playing with mods and after a while that gets a little bit boring too.

Survival where you can play with multiable players is fun yes, yet I can do that by using my servers I created and giving out the ip. Not much to give in my opinion.

Having new stuff such as dungeons, shops, or just the update to 1.13 would be a little nice. So its not just multi player survival but multi playey, dungeons and survival. So before I think of starting a new world solo player I can think about going into elite survival.
