Minecraft Name: @iTzXtremeGaming Suggestion: Add a new server host, based in EU. Reason: I sincerely think this could only benefit all of us. I believe we should add another server host, based in Europe so us Europeans (and rest of world that don't live in US) get a better ping (ms) to EcoCityCraft. I, certainly would absolutely love this, as I PvP a lot ( SG ) and as you know Ping is a main decider in a battle in PvP. You could be the best PvPer in the world, and still lose to a noob because of a lag spike, anyways you get my point. It would benefit a lot of us, and I would love to see it added. Maybe for the host, it could be something like mc.ecocitycraft.eu or eu.ecocitycraft.com, something of the likes. Or maybe even just a numerical ip, but since the hub is already out I believe, and we are soon to be adding mini-games, we will be adding a lot more players to the server, and some of them might not live in US to get a perfect connection to the server, which I know for a fact can frustrate people . So I believe administration should look into this and see if it's an option. Any Other Information: I don't exactly know how you'd do this, so if someone would care to explain that'd be great xP. I believe it's something to do with BungeeCord and something else, I don't really know. Please leave all feedback positive/negative in the comments, and I may add anything into the post if I believe it is worth adding. Thank you for reading & I really hope you consider this. I've been wanting this for a while and i'm sure others wouldn't mind this too! Link To This Plugin/Is this a custom addition?: BungeeCord (Don't quote me on this, not exactly sure) and some other things I believe. Jamie/Andrew should know how to do this.
I'm not exactly sure, but I hope that it'd effectively just be the same server with two different places that are hosting it. Mod please edit this out if this isn't allowed, but a good example is how mineplex has two ports, one has us.<name>.com and the other has eu.<name>.com and I believe they lead to the same server, someone please correct me if i'm wrong?
I don't think they do, it's basically two separate servers with certain points systems and donations in common. If this was to be implemented into ECC it would have to be something like rising on US and legacy on EU. Your balance would be the only thing in common. It would split the player base and be pretty messy.
There server is mini games based, totally different, furthermore they have a much larger player base and can afford to split their users.
I only see large (And I mean large, like 1,000 players on at a time or more.) hub servers doing things like this - It's literally two different servers with the same things, a US one and a EU one - This will unnecessarily cost LOTS of money and separate the player base due to players being in different servers. I can also see this happening if ECC becomes one of those 1,000+ players online servers. Also, welcome back iTz
I suppose so, have to agree with your point there. Do you think we could make it work on ECC? Or too much work and generally just wouldn't work, also thanks for your input so far!
Although it's possible to share players asking continents without problems (there is an existing system released as a spigot resource that does exactly that), there is a large logistical problem unique to ECC. Namely, the seamless synchronization of chat and the central server system that other hubs do not have. This problem requires a custom system that is simply not feasible to implement for ECC. ECC is simply too small to make the extra costs and time worth it. Unless ECC reaches like 500+ users administration shouldn't even think about this. If the server grows to that point then this will definitely be the next logical step, but right now it's not feasible. Wait until ECC actually grows large.
I don't think this should even be considered until ECC makes the thousands. I would hate to not see people like @314, @Phantomine, @xX3PICREBELXx, @7amoodw, and of course you. -1 for now
This is my view on this. Kuke summed it up perfectly. Honestly. It's not feasible at this time, or for some time in the future.
a great idea! only issue is would us EU players keep everything we have worked so hard for? if this could be done on 1 server it would be perfect! +1
