In the spoiler below I have two examples:
TMD & Mine Wars
The TMD new map is going smoothly. We think everybody will like this update, as it hardly removes anything, but rather adds back a lot of concepts that people have liked in the past.
As for Mine Wars, we're aware people are upset with it in terms of updates. We've heard your complaints, and we're going to try to give it some more love. NHFLX made a thread requesting quest ideas, and it can be found here.
Hell Night
As we got through all of our old code to update it, and switch it to 1.8, we've come to Hell Night. We're wondering if there is anything you guys want added in Hell Night. Personally I've been playing a lot of H1Z1: KOTK and Battlegrounds lately, so I'm filled with ideas. Perhaps we could make the gas regions smaller. One of the things I like most of H1Z1 is the hectic battles at the end. I think in Hell Night, it's anti-climatic right now. If there are 4 teams left in a 100 block radius, I think it would make for very exciting endings. Also, games would go quicker so it'd be easier to play. Leave your suggestions below.
Ad Points
Soon we will be adding an NPC in our spawn where players can watch quick, 30 second ads. Watching ads will give you points that you can exchange for in game items. For example, if you aren't able to donate, you could watch x number of ads, and get a legendary crate. This should provide people who can't donate a chance to get some perks, and it will also provide some extra funds for the network, so we can hopefully produce content faster.
I'd love to hear your guys feedback! Also, just so you know, Daryl dies in tonight's episode of TWD according to Spoling Dead. Sorry for spoilers. JK, tricked you xD
