NPC Joinsystem Release & New Lobby
Hey there, Minecraft fans,
With the factory-fresh NPC join system and a new 1.21 lobby, we’re ushering in a new era on our network. A host of new features - like Quickjoin, unique 3D models, and plenty of well-hidden secrets - will give you a fresh perspective on our network.
» Brand-new lobby built on version 1.21
After nearly six years, it was time to release a new heart for our server. The lobby is the hub for every player, and that’s exactly why we wanted to create something unique. About 20 people were involved in building the new 1.21 lobby - and the attention to detail is evident in every corner.
In addition to countless structures, there are also plenty of platformers, secrets, and lobby activities waiting for you. We’ll go into more detail on that shortly, but there’s one thing you should know right now: Exploring the entire lobby and all its intricacies is only for the truly dedicated and requires maximum stamina - so you definitely won’t get bored!
» Goodbye, Signs - Hello, NPCs!
Just as iconic as our old lobby were the signs used to join rounds in our game modes. But we’re saying goodbye to those as well - and welcoming the new NPCs, who are not only beautifully modeled but also bring new features that will take your gaming experience to the next level.
At the NPCs located in each game mode's area, you can choose between the new Quick-Join option (right-click) and the classic round display (left-click).
Quick Join: Right-click to join the next round as soon as it starts.
Show rounds: With a left-click, you can view all the rounds that are about to start. You can also use the settings option at the bottom of the menu to choose whether you want to see rounds that are currently in progress and whether you want to see a countdown until the round starts.
» Interactive NPCs and Secrets
Attentive players will quickly notice that the new lobby is full of hidden NPCs and secrets. NPCs have their own dialogue, and some even have short monologues. Some of these change depending on how often you’ve interacted with them. You can also discover and collect hidden secrets throughout the lobby.
Here’s what it looks like:
What's the deal with the scrapbook?
The guidebook lists all the secrets and NPCs you can discover. You can also see when you've found each one.
» Lobby activities
Even though there’s so much to discover that you definitely won’t get bored, it’s worth checking out our new lobby activities. Whether it’s Beat the Golem, volleyball, or platformers - there’s something for everyone. Whether you’re playing with friends or other players: Win the game or set new high scores.
We hope you enjoy the update and wish you lots of fun exploring the new lobby and trying out the new features. As always, we welcome your feedback on the update and suggestions for new features on the forum or on our Discord server.
Best regards,
Your GommeHD.net Team
