Introduction
Hello, I have been a Munchy player since December 2015. Back when I used to play this server and found it fun I would always log into Competitive. The style of PVP in competitive was the best, and so much better than casual. Munchy was a great server and had a funny community. Which is one of the reasons I stuck around. I used to think this server was really great and addicting.That being said it really pains me to see the current situation with the competitive.
The competitive game mode is just not what it used to be. The game mode is washed up and left to rot. It’s been left as a husk of it’s former glory.
Building Problem
One big problem with competitive is the dreadful map it currently has. It really goes to show how much Competitive isn’t taken care of.
The map has 0 care and effort put into it. It is just a garbled mess of blocks put together. Stone, grass and gray stained clay are put together to make one hill. This causes the hill to look unrealistic and actually make it unappealing. The “grass” was just a mix of clay and the grass block but that still makes it look putrid because there was no care put into how much clay is in it.
There is also trees which look like they are spawned from my nightmare copied and pasted in. There is zero care put into it and it shows.
Put all of this together and it makes the whole map look horrific, you can tell just how much was worldedited. I would enjoy the old map much more to be brought back or at the very least a revamp. But NEVER go for this map again. I bet even the builder doesn’t know what he was going for while building this.
Gameplay Problem
Competitive has gameplay elements that have been changed to be like casual. This was a horrible idea as competitive is now a casual copy. What competitive is missing is its old commands such as /sharp, /repair, /soup, etc. The /Repair command used to be different and much better back then. There would be a timer and vulnerability which made players to be punished for using /repair during a fight. Now instead of something that can be punished we get this.
This doesn’t make anything competitive there’s no indication of someone using /repair. The old /repair did that by having a red wool on their head while repairing.
Please don’t use these stupid poles for re-soups in competitive just use the old /repair format. Try to make competitive different from casual at least put in an effort this time.
Random structures like this kill the whole point of competitive. What is competitive about, kicking people off a platform for a kill?
Advertising Problem
When I ask people if they play competitive the answer I get most frequently is “What is competitive?”. Now that is expected from how little attention is payed, since casual is in front of new player’s faces. But why don’t we push competitive to their faces by placing a warp npc in spawn?
This can be used as a small tactic to get competitive actual attention. I’m sure the geniuses in munchy can find other ways to advertise the best gamemode in munchy. Events for competitive can drastically make a big change and bring back the playerbase for it. But make sure to keep in mind that it is COMPETITIVE!
In conclusion munchy is too much of a developed server to not keep up with the competitive standards.
