        In my opinion why would people want to replay the same mod pack with the same crafting recipes and all thats changing is the map you play on. sure at first it would be all new and exciting but once you got mid-ish game it will just be the same thing all over again you in your base crafting the same items in the relatively same progression.

          also expert mode enables a mod called avarita which makes some crazy end game items using 9x9 crafting.

            After the two months are over, the server will be available for download and taken offline for good.

            Just to clarify, the current 1.7 server will be taken offline in two months? Or the Skyblock?

            Will it be reset, are available to play on again? Or just removed?

              My reasoning is that Ive already played expert twice, and I dont really have the time to sink into another expert mode server. But we shall see how the poll ends up

                the current server will be taken offline about 2 months after the next server starts

                Will it be reset, are available to play on again? Or just removed?

                replaced with a new server on a new pack so we always have only two servers online at once, the map will be available for download

                Expert as skyblock is quite different since resources aren't an issue as soon as you automate sifting, but if you don't like it, that's fine the current server will stay online and when that one goes down another server (probably on 1.8) will come up.

                  I was looking forward to Horizons or something new 😧 why Infinity again?

                    You're not wrong, it is kind of a burnout to play the same pack again. However, a Skyblock variation would be something unusual to play on. It's also a big reason we are discussing expert mode, because it would be a big change of pace as well as introducing new aspects to Infinity.

                    If Infinity cannot be released in a reasonable time frame, we will be forced to go with a different pack. In that scenario, we are happy to consider Horizons if that is what you're interested in. After the next server cycle is done, we will move to a 1.8 pack, so even if you are not interested in the Skyblock pack, you can continue to play on the current server until the next rotation.

                      I'm just worried. We've already lost people to burnout/boredom on the current Infinity. Another 2 months of it, most likely on expert mode seems like it would just make more people become bored. I know some people joined in the first place to get away from expert mode. I'll play whatever I'm given but I feel like more sense to have the skyblock replace the current Infinity server in another 2 months.

                        @Lathirex that's actually not a bad idea, I'll discuss that with the rest of the staff

                          Ah darn.

                          Expert mode is cool and all, but the startup on any server for expert mode is super grindy, and sometimes it's really easy to lose interest when you're having difficulties crafting a bucket.

                          But variation is, however key to fun. So I'll probably end up staying onboard with whatever you throw at me serverwise.

                          Keep it Fresh, yo.

                            Skyblock sounds cool, and infinity is my fav mod pack so, sounds good!

                              @phit Thanks. Sorry if it sounds like I'm complaining about the choice to play skyblock Infinity - don't get me wrong, it sounds interesting. I just think the majority of us are all a little exhausted of Infinity for now.

                                I'd enjoy sky block, don't mind whether it's expert or normal.

                                    well i'm happy with being in the minority wrt this. As someone who does not have alot of time to sink into minecraft, i havent gotten nearly as far as the rest of you.

                                    i understand the reasons that its going to be changed. but i'm happy with playing infinity.

                                    Thanks for putting the map up for download admins.

                                        Since the pack is currently unfinished, we won't know for sure if it will be ready by the 18th of March, but we are hopeful for something in that timeframe.

                                          My votes on Regrowth, don't know much about the mod and how it would work on a server tbh, but I know the base concept and it seems pretty interesting.

                                            My vote is for playing hardmode on skyblock.
