Recently, born made Ec work with 1.7 and 1.8 😀 Thank You born <3
Although you are on 1.8, the blocks and new items won’t work. The server is still 1.7 and everything is still 1.7. but 1.8 clients can join.
=================================================Next, I want to hear everyone’s opinion about 1.8 Server. In 1.8, there are many amazing new items and features that people want to explore and play with. There also comes with lag issue and it’s know that 1.8 Lags a lot. I honestly think that with optifine: it feels around the same.
I wanna hear everyone’s opinion about 1.8.
Should Ec plan for 1.8?
Do you want Factions to be 1.8?Leave me comments about the good sides about 1.8 and the bad sides. Thank You.
I think that’s a good idea. But we should find a way to lessen the lag. It’s a major problem about 1.8
-Demaciaaa!!
The funny thing is, I have a mid-2011 laptop, yet I get no major FPS drops in any 1.8 version.
To answer the questions though:
1.8 is fun.
EC would benefit from getting 1.8.
I’m sure that Factions would benefit from 1.8 too, other than Sponges being the ‘voting crate’.My laptop was bought last 2009. I think that’s the cause of mah FPS probs. I won’t be able to cope with the server if it updates for 1.8. That’s the bad thing for me..
My computer was bought in 2008 xD. Yeah, lag issues are something that might pull the community apart.
Have you tried optifine btw? Texture packs?
I’ve tried playing in 1.8. The lag spikes are HORRIBLE. At a spot where I had 100 fps on max settings, I get 30 – 50 fps (all max settings by the way). The chunk rendering mechanic was changed in 1.8, which makes it extremely resource consuming for high chunk render settings. If you’re running on 2 chunks or 4 chunks, then the fps drop isn’t as damaging.
Also, I don’t see any need to update to 1.8. I like the way that 1.7 is. 1.8 can also call for a world reset, as it adds in blocks such as granite that randomly generate.

Everyone complains 1.8 lags, wanna know why it lags? MORE CONTENT
Since I putted optifine I dont lag on 1.8 anymore :3
Put that bech in 1.8! Screw the rest of the haters, they wanna play EC, then they get lag. Deal with it breh.
To Rogue_Art, remember when there was the 1.7 update? I remember clearly, every survival mods needed to put sponges in order to protect towns and we had a world reset.
Totally agree with 1.8.
Advantages:
– More blocks and mobs to play with
– New gameplay experiences with the new sea castle and other changes in the biomes
– More plugins to add to EC which only have 1.8 compatible versions atm. (Example: Pig Quest for Minigames). Pig Quest is something like Sheep Quest which exist in another mc server.Disadvantages:
– Lag like some mentioned
– No skins will show since we’re cracked
– Some old plugins haven’t got 1.8 compatible version atm and if we use it, it will cause lag. But we can either replace the plugin with another which have the same function or bear with the lag while waiting for the 1.8 version of it.So.. All major disadvantages are only about the lag. You can reduce it with optifine or get a better computer spec. Many players are looking forward to experience the 1.8 advantages at EC.
To be honest I don’t really much lag in 1.8 for some reason I don’t know if its the server or its the 1.8.. I played on 1.8 servers and I can play well..
I even used a Skyrim soundpack with a Faithful Texture pack and of course I feel slight lag but it’s good enough for me lol
One thing I really hate about 1.8 is the skins.. It’s ugly as hell.. It’s like I just peel steve’s skin and I found a new skin ;-;
I just purchased a new pc. It works great. But 1.8 makes it lag a lot. Weird thing is, I get constant lag spikes in 1.8-1.8.2 but 1.8.3 has improved my framerate.
Let me join in!
I agree :3
Optifine never failed me before. And my pc is from 2005
