I don't want to rain on everyone's parade.. but why are trench war tdm's still a thing, I hate them
the same stuff has been hosted for atleast the past 4 years and we still use almost the same map set up
not to mention blockland hitbox sucks ass already with things like crouching
they've also been hosted for so long... I don't even use the trench digging tools and I don't think 80% of people do, the game just gets ruined by people griefing their own bases or people just spamming dirt
I don't want to rain on everyone's parade.. but why are city rps still a thing, I hate them
the same stuff has been hosted for atleast the past 4 years and we still use almost the same map set up
not to mention most city rp mods sucks ass already with things like broken jobs
they've also been hosted for so long... I don't even know how to get a job and I don't think 80% of people do, the game just gets ruined by people killing everyone or people just making spammy houses, it very hard to actually be able to make money
There's also family rps, freebuilds, jail rps...
So to answer your question: It's easy to host, enough people have fun to keep the server running, little effort is needed on the build, it's easier to host an idea that's been done tons of times than to make up an original idea, etc.
