    None of the old veterans play factions anymore. It's "dead". Not enough people play it for it to be fun. For example, there aren't enough rich people or big factions for other people to raid spawners from. That means it is hard to make huge amounts of money to buy things such as iron golem spawners.

    In my opinion, and I think most people agree with me, the current factions should be reset. Everything should be cleared and reverted to the first day it came out. No, not a rebuilding of maps, just a "factory settings" of factions.

    Shop prices should be seriously reconsidered, as making money is a hard, over-effortful task in the current factions. Items such as spawners, specifically.

    The all awaited custom enchants as well.. It really enhances the gameplay of factions, making it so that a battle isn't just about how strong one enchant is, but multiple enchants. https://www.shadowxcraft.net/threads/custom-enchants-factions.1213/#post-10073

    There should be more events frequently, to encourage people to paticipate in pvp activities, and not just hide in their bases and grind all day, every day.

    As I said before about prices, it is hard to build huge, secure bases or huge, over-powered cannons due to the over-pricing of certain important items.


    Overall, there needs to be several more features, original if you can, to attract more people on factions, to improve factions. Right now, you don't see wars going on, raids, chat explosions, etc. We need all of that to make it REALLY a factions experience. If you have any more suggestions, feel free to post it down below.

    Note: This is intended for it to be worked on after all the scheduled updates and server releases.

    Maybe there could be a faction with staff only and that have to have many enemies. This will encourage players to go to factions and try taking down the staff. This is just an idea that popped into my head.

    It is difficult to balance. Too overpowered and you become maxed out very quickly, too little and players lose interest.

    i agree with liz on this one, but the custome enchant one is a good idea. i think the only reason old veterans of factions no longer play anymore (like me, or my reason) is because its to dull. some servers add twists which i really like for example Timeless PVPs factions are really enjoyable and interactive with things like give aways for special kits, custom enchants and the ranks with the power to fly and stuff. Factions 2.0 was good i have to admit but it got extreamly boring after a while, with either some factions being to OP in terms of Money or player count or even bases. so my point is there needs to be some twists on factions, its just similar to most other servers now with using money to /rank up or /kit donor etc. its not interactive or enjoyable as much as it was before. its the same thing with prision.

    I'm a huge factions guy but factions 2.0 was the best one yet. Usually I like to not raid bases but grief them. I also think chests should be accessible.
