Votekey rewards and overall complains
Firstly, Speaking on behalf of the survival community, the gamemode is absolutely rigged. starting with votekey chances, from all of the available rewards these are what i have received from 128 votekeys

bad right? its not only me saying its bad, its the entire community. the odds of getting good items are almost impossible.
i have seen various suggestions being made about the key chances and staff directly told players to be more detailed about it.
now here is the thing, as a dev when you work on something you only want positive and negative reviews, if all of us are supposed to tell you
exactly what to make and what not to make then what is the point of having an entire staff team to discuss things? No disrespect.
The votekey system is absolutely rigged. rewards are mostly useless.
Following: All the pets, Mason glow etc. LITERALLY useless. all of the items they give can directly be obtained and have no use in HOF if that is their purpose.
Luckyblocks: Lets be honest here, even if you are lucky there is nothing good about them.
Circuit bag: All items can be directly purchased.
Shield: No caption
Trident: No caption
1 Golden apple: No caption
Wind charge:No caption
Now, the main topic. The odds.
Depending on the amount of soul pouch, shard box and money bags i have received in the image above you can see how rigged the odds are. Possibilities of getting good items are LITERALLY impossible to be obtained.
Instead of odds, you can work on Rarity. Uncommon, Rare, Epic,Mythic. As simple as that.
Items such as harvester, chest hopper, chunk collector, storage barrel will be listed as mythic.
Items that are easier to be obtained or even through shop will simply be listed as Uncommon.
Items that seem valuable, or harder to obtain such as elytra or gapples will be listed as Rare.
Items that are difficult to be obtained such as Mace,Sharp 7 sword Will be listed as Epic
Other issues that caught my eye: Vote party rewards. No one was complaining about the 15 votekey rewards, spawner key and legendary key odds until it was changed. What was the point? You have to make changes based on your playerbase. if you make changes against the will of your players you are most likely one step closer to killing the server all over again. Most of the players that are playing are from old times and we barely get new members with the intention of being interested to continue their journey in extremecraft depending on how everything now depends on ODDS and numbers and chances.
Speaking of chances, Whats new with the battlepass rewards? ODDS? grinding achievements to get a singular xp bottle? Nothing was wrong with the previous system. Keys, Reasonable rewards. Battlepass rewards are quite similar to votekeys and lets not speak of the odds of the items as it was already mentioned above.
And lets finish it up by a global complaint.
The server now has one purpose. Get harvesters, Make farms, Get hall of fame. EVERY gamemode runs the same way. Anarchy and towny excluded.
Rest, they are all like each other, just different names on the gamemodes. ALL of them lead to the same thing.
Tokenshop prices should go back to their regular prices depending on how slow tokens are obtained.
The game has became extremely pay to win and even with the phantom rank it is an issue for players to get used to the new system.
Souls need rework, the amount of souls received by killing mobs is nerfed in a way i cannot define. Makes people want to pay to play the game rather than actually enjoy their experience.
Hall of fame rewards. Back then: 200 175 150 100 50 / Now: 50 25 20 10 5
Simply not enough to even pay ONE worker for what they work for. More details will be added to each category if needed depending on what the community thinks about it if you want OUR review you get our review.
