Hello :)

I have recently rejoined MCPZ after not playing for about 3 - 4 years. Its been a couple of years and a lot of things have changed, and I don't think they're good changes.

First of all, I don't think that the murder should have a swinging range of up to 4 blocks. I'm sorry, but what on earth. When I played the old murder, I used to find a lot of pleasure and enjoyment in evading the murder in quite funny ways, but nOt aNyMorE :)

Secondly, name tags should be turned off, I can guess who the murderer is just through watching name tags.

The new ranking system, is annoying. I liked the old ranks and the global number ranks. I was in the global ones and lost all my progress and karma (but my stats are still there).

I also think that block hats should come back, I liked being an astronaut. Also, I liked having a diamond gun, not just the sword.

Footsteps should be brought back, the particles are uGLY. They also make me lag, so that's not fun :(

In simple terms, I would like the old murder back. All the new stuff hasn't really improved anything in my opinion. There are still particle glitches, there are still skin and name tag glitches, there are still running glitches. I don't think any of the actual problem have been solved, they have just been covered up by new features, which hasn't worked in my opinion.

1- I completely agree no fun
2- Eh mixed but yes.
3- I'm not certain this is going to be the rank system. I assume they have something else in mind. Although if this is the case I would like the system to change back to 2014 edition xD.
4- This is involved with goodie bags and do not have a release date. I believe this is a planned occurrence.
5- I am not certain on this one either, although I would like to see this re-implemented as it was fun trailing people.
 
Footsteps are what we wanted, however within internal testing we found that for which ever reason, updating to 1.12 has made proper foot step trails actually tank the framerates of murderers severely. This is the only reason it is changed, because even I with a strong computer could barely maintain a stable framerate, and weaker computers most certainly would not do much better.

Another reason why footsteps wouldn't be sustainable is future support. 1.12 is the last version with proper footstep particles. While this works well for our purposes now, if for which ever reason we decide to do another full update (like how we're updating from 1.8 to 1.12) it simply wouldn't be an option, not even a laggy one, to begin with.

In the current beta nametags are disabled, whether or not there are more plans for this (A full disable or re-implementing how the system used to be) is unknown
