Forums Games Tab

[Etgar]

I believe another method in advertising our current gamemodes (and to improve the forums in general) would be to have a "Games Tab". Where players can view the games PartyZone has to offer without having to join the server and see what games we have.

The tab would be located here:

Once you have clicked the GAMES button, you will be directed towards a new page that looks similar to the one Hypixel has.

Spoiler: Click Me

The Design Team will be in charge of creative logo's/icons for every game.

Once you have clicked a certain game, you will see the title of the game, a brief storyline/explanation about the game and any other information that might be needed. Here's an example:

Another thing we could add is a message saying whether or not the game is down, or up and running. So that players don't have to constantly ask, "is [insert game] up yet?"​

This sounds like a very intriguing idea which would help players become aware and for any new players that come across the website and may be interested in testing out the server. I’m sure the design team could think of magnificent designs for it alongside this.

I will be voting +1, unless a stronger opinion arises, as I believe this would be very beneficial to have and be an informative method for newer users, who may be interested in joining a new community with games such a ours.

That would be pretty neat, and I especially like the part about updates on whether the game is up or not. Though, how would the online status work? Would the developers just mark it when they know it's offline? If so, that might be a little time-consuming for time they could spend actually getting the game to work. Even without that part, it would be nice for new players to see what games we have (and the details) before they actually log on, so I'll be voting +1!

That sounds definitely like a great idea would help every individual to know more about games when they join or just in general. It would help people feel more encouraged to go play the game if they like it's description and story. +1

Though, how would the online status work? Would the developers just mark it when they know it's offline? If so, that might be a little time-

Maybe just any staff can go mark it if they notice that servers down when they're available because I don't think developers will be able to always update it.

This would've been great to have before the player count went down exponentially. I like this idea, so I'm voting Should Implement, but it won't bring new people in. If they're in search of a server, chances are they'll just join it before going to the website to judge whether or not it's a "worthy minecraft server"

Ahem did you get warned for saying Hypickle?

Ahem did you get warned for saying Hypickle?

You will not be warned for mentioning other Minecraft server names, such as in the context Etgar uses, due to recent rule changes.

You will not be warned for mentioning other Minecraft server names, such as in the context Etgar uses, due to recent rule changes.

So will my warning be revoked?

 

[ABerryyy]

If it was a warning before the rules were changed, no it will not be removed.

So will my warning be revoked?

I love this suggestion and I believe it would be a worthy thing to add to Party Zone forums, because we're not just a forums! +1

 

[Spirits]

I especially like the idea of real time status updates of whether a game is down or not. +1.

 

[KinqOfTheClouds]

I like this idea, for the reasons stated above. It brings a personal element to the forums.

I love this! I think that this would be really attractive, especially if the Design Team add little logos for the different games. And adding the info of whether or not the game is down or not can prevent people unnecessarily repeatedly asking "Is Murder down???"
