Hello community. 

We all know we're here for Building and playing with our expression 2s but we want to know what other Gamemodes you would like to play with your fellow members.
As a community we're always looking for new features and to expand the community. Thomas and I have talked about this on and off for a while and we feel that we should ask the players of IJWTB what they want to see IJWTB branch out into along side Flood. 

Before you vote I would like to remind you that this is a vote for what would be best for IJWTB. Don't vote on the Gamemode you personally like the most. If you have another suggestion, idea or Gamemode that isn't listed above then post below. If you have an idea for build/flood then please use their suggestions forums respectively. 

Remember: simple is just as welcomed :D

Thank you

I would say we need somthing like Neurotech, XCF, or hell pewpew in a build2kill (of course cordon off building/spawn zones to prevent spawn killing :P)
[Yes I know it is a bad idea, but I think it would be fun to build cannons to fight with, not just to kill NPCs]


----EDIT-----
Why not just do spacebuild (keep ranks from build) and have XCF with it, since the old SBEP no longer has hard-point based weapons, or hell even entities to play with anymore :|

I wouldn't say that was a terrible idea, Asnow. Thomas's brother had also suggested this. Any ideas are cool no matter how bad they sound.

I think Spacebuild would be nice. There aren't many SB servers and if I join one it's empty all the time. Wouldn't it be fun to fly a ship and fight in space?
It's almost like build2kill :V



And can somebody please explain what is PERP? ;D

Well, PERP is a roleplay gamemode, kind of like DarkRP, but not exactly the same. PERP is often "serious". This means there are more real-life elements to it; for example, if you're a cop in-game, you'd act like how you would be if you're a cop IRL. If you are part of a gang in-game, you'd act like a real gang member. Most PERP servers also have more cars to buy and drive around.

I think that since the name of our community is "I Just Want to Build", we should try to stick to building gamemodes.

Spacebuild is a good choice, then. I also like the idea of a build-2-kill server.

Personally, though, I still want a decent Minecraft server but I'm guessing that's out of the question.

The key to keeping players invested in a MC server is to keep routinely advertising it on sites like PlanetMinecraft (About 1 or 2 ads a week from my experience). It's possible to hold a playerbase in this way.
It's not just a specific problem with MC servers themselves.

Minecraft FTB servers / Tekkit custom mod pack would be cool its just a pain in the ass to sort out compatibility issues with custom packs. Minecraft servers take a lot of ram particularly modded 1s. Idk what the vps is at for ram.

Bukkit based minecraft servers never last that long unless heavily modified. 
Look at D3vine Minecraft for reference.

FTB Servers are a pain in the ass to block all the bugs but manageable.

A custom tekkit pack would be nice but its a pain in the ass to make.

EDIT:
Some FTB Modpacks to consider
http://www.feed-the-beast.com/mod-packs

The VPS is currently
3.4GB / 4GB

Low Ball guess we would need at least 3GB for stable FTB server, with a low population and no chunk loaders.

I am pretty sure anything along these lines will take over good 50 hours even to get working.
Plus you need people that can build good and I mean good. to create an infrastructure for something like this.

I find FTB or Tekkit lame as shit. This thread was mainly aimed at Gmod and what we have now though. Although I would love to host my own Minecraft server the VPS will not take it in its current state.
Could we get back to Garry's mod servers or community ideas that don't revolve around Minecraft? Feel free to make a thread in the general section to talk about that more. We've noted it, thanks.

I just want to build naval battles?

I also support spacebuild.

EDIT:
I don't mind wipping out ship hull models for quick and low model count gamemode, like kerbal style building.

Hmm, Perp, MC, or Spacebuild are choices I would go with. Scott is right though, Perp isn't worth the hastle, and there was a lot of drama in D3 with it anyway, although it's an extremely good gamemode that could draw a lot of attention to IJWTB. Minecraft is always fun no matter what game mode you play, although FTB I am not too fond of, but it's a good mod. Spacebuild I haven't really ever tried for gmod, but I have seen it and have wanted to try it though. B2K not really all that good, because you can just do that with E2's... (unless the plan is to remove wire from it).
How about a starmade server? Starmade is similar to Minecraft with it's voxel based gameplay, not to mention it's like space build for gmod, as well as b2k since it has PvP in it. That would combine 3 things people have been wanting so far,  maybe it would be possible to add RP to it as well? And considering you need to build your own spacecraft, it would still keep the IJWTB theme.

What about Fretta and/or a privated (or rank limited (rank from build)) server allowing serverside LUA, ect. for players who wanna try making their own contributions toward a community gamemode (perhaps something completely new)?

As odd as it might seem to advocate the infectious zombie type gamemode, I think it could work out as far as actual building would be concerned. I think it would be neat to either have to build a fort from ground up, or heavily modifying a set building. And after the building is done, making inventive defenses. Like only having a few guns available so building various defence systems and such are the main focus of survival. Spike pits (or something similar) and snares to contain the zombies, and catapults, trebuchets and maybe even makeshift cannons for a more offensive defense. And for the zombie team, I think it would make it a little more interesting because instead of just the "Kill the humans and don't get shot" aspect, they'd also have to be on the watch for the traps.

Or the space build would be neat, too.

I have a great idea, its a longshot so bear with me on this one.

~~~~KSP in gmod~~~~

Yes, you saw that right Kerbal Space Program in gmod or something very similar.

So, what would this gamemode consist of?
-Large map (as in you have your starting planet which takes up the lowest part of the map and have other planets higher up]
-Re-entry (Only on starting planet, or if we feel like have other habitable planets and have atmosphere on those)
-No limits on building (You can use any prop you want, the heat shields and others will be made using the toolgun.)
-0 gravity in space (Need I explain this one?)
-Pre-built launch craft, payloads, etc... (These will be in the adv-dupe 1 public folder, of course we need a way so random people can delete them all...)
-Nose cones will effect the craft (The nosecones will either produce drag [when facing wrong way] or they will assist in gaining speed as they do IRL)
-Parachutes (These will be made by using the toolgun and either 1 using a pre-made model, or 2 click on the prop you made for the parachute)
- Fuel and Fuel usage (Use the tool gun to mark thrusters and fuel tanks, if a thruster is NOT marked and the fuel tank is not connected as well, it will NOT work)
-If you die, your out of the game (By "out of the game" I mean you have a delayed spawn, so you cant just do /kill and instantly get back to starting planet, I want to see people work together to save each other)
-Fuel tanks, as are in real life can explode (Simple, you shoot fuel tank or it over heats you will get a large explosion)
-Life support (Similar to Spacebuild)
-nukes?
 
*If I missed anything that should be added, please make note of it*

I feel this gamemode will be both fun and test the skill of building spacecraft, IF this becomes a real gamemode on one of the IJWTB servers, I would gladly dedicate time to building it (I will do what is possible as I cant code for crap :P)
I also feel that this would get a lot of attention (for both being one-of-a-kind and a first in this category of gamemodes for gmod)
And yes, this could be a alternative for space build.

For now this is just a large wishlist, it is up in the air who will make this a reality.

I have another long shot of a idea

~~~~MINI NAVAL WARS~~~~

Features
~Everyone is .1 sized (High detailed ships, maps are about 100% larger, etc...)
~Mini naval ships/planes 
~Space weaponry is now a possibliity
~Fleet battles?
More to come

This gamemode like KSP in gmod will be a test of building skill and possibly strategy
This would also require less coding than KSP would (So this would be ready sooner)

I got this idea while building one of my submarines (Now named "The Red October") when I was shrunk to 0.4, I saw that I could possibly be on my submarine and I requested to be brought down to 0.1 where at this I was able to see... My submarines are 1:1000 sized, and the map is about 100% larger (In my eyes).

Now with this each map could be equalivent to 1 or 2 LARGE island clusters.

Also, for now this is a wishlist, this is also up in the air.
