cmyk Posted June 3, 2019 Share Posted June 3, 2019 Hello, Currently the price of a claimblock on 1.12.2 is $50 per block. It's not $50 for a chunk its $50 for a single block. Lets do some math. A minecraft chunk is 16x16 This is 256 claim blocks per chunk. (A claim block extends to bedrock so height doesn't matter) 256*50 = 12800 That is $12,800 to claim a single chunk  Suggestion: Lower a claim block to 6.25, this will make a chunk cost $1600 which I think is a fair price and everyone will be happy  Thanks!

Encryptor Posted June 3, 2019 Share Posted June 3, 2019 I agree with this! we get quite a bit of $$ because we can vote with 4x the rewards, but its pretty pointless on a normal vote day to spend all your money on 5 or 6 blocks. Please make them more worth buying Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ness27 Posted June 3, 2019 Share Posted June 3, 2019 I agree, great suggestion! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lologod Posted June 3, 2019 Share Posted June 3, 2019 I do agree with this, I had the same problem when I started and had no balance to expand my area. This is an amazing suggestion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hcaz Posted June 4, 2019 Share Posted June 4, 2019 I think that the suggested price is too low, you're meant to play for claim blocks and gradually expand or buy them in mass via donation, that's part of the monetization model. Obviously, it should be reasonably expensive to get a claim, and considering that valuable resources sell for no more than $2000 (except for early game), you should expect to be able to get a 10x10 area for $2000 => $20/block. If the price is too high then either circumvent it by donation or play for longer and focus on expanding what you have vertically. cmyk 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Danielkinz Posted June 4, 2019 Share Posted June 4, 2019 Please do note that you can also get claim blocks simply by staying online. I'm not sure about the exact rate, but it seems you get 10 claim blocks every 5-15 minutes. Stay online for a while and you should have plenty of claim blocks.

jkl882 Posted June 4, 2019 Share Posted June 4, 2019 I agree with this, however, I think the system isn't supposed to be used (the buying of claim blocks) well on "our" servers, I think it's just one of those things which has been left at its default value, and just not disabled, however a price reduction would he really nice so I do keep having to buy claim blocks from buy craft lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
