The Juggernaut
'The Juggernaut' - Planning Stage!
Project on hold: I am not enjoying the development of the plugin, and I am very busy with schoolwork - sorry! I will carry on with this plugin in the future.
"A new fun game mode for team players and pvp specialists!"
Love PvP?
If you love PvP and team based battles, this will change your minecrafting experience. This one vs all (1vE) plugin is simple but very effective!
This plugin introduces a new game mode, similar to Team Fortress 2's 'Saxton Hale'. Players join a map or an arena and then fight as a team to kill a player, The Juggernaut. Sounds easy doesn't it? But there's more.
Features:
The Juggernaut features:
- Very High Health - Extremely simple formula, which can be changed if The Juggernaut is too weak. jugHealth = numOfPlayers * defaultPlayerHealth
- Very Strong Attack - The Juggernaut's main weapon will be fists which can kill a player in probably 2 hits (again, changeable)
- Super Speed and Jump - How easy is it to hit a moving target jumping at you at 100 mph? (Not actual speed :D).
- TagAPI Support - Will come later. 'Juggernaut' displayed above players head in black or any other colour specified in the config.
Other Plugin Features:
- Juggernauts Health displayed in chat.
- Choose your class.
- Join queue to become 'The Juggernaut', similar to the TF2 Saxton Hale.
- Map rotation (maybe).
- Earn better weapons the longer you survive
- Lobbies
Feature(s) which I would kill for:
- AI Juggernaut - mobs have an AI, so could a NPC have an effective AI? Obviously would need Citizens support or something.
Again, this plugin is in the planning/early development stage. I will make a concept plugin which shows some commands and what will come up in the chat.
Here is the first screenshot:
If you have any ideas, PLEASE post them in the comments!

No, I'm not a plugin developer. I wish I was though. Even though I'm not a developer, I'm very good at making other plugins work together to make something they weren't specifically meant for. Soon I might become a developer though.

@Untwinxer
These are all great ideas. Different permissions can be added to allow people to have two turns at being juggernaut. Now that scoreboards are in minecraft, there is an easy way to see who has done the most damage. I will check the API for scoreboard intergration (sorry for thinking aloud) and hopefully there will be some support. Also, are you a plugin developer? Many thanks, -Capy

Development has been halted on this plugin for now. But I decided that I will continue (after freshening up on some aspects of Java) later in the year. My school stuff has all finished now but I don't really want to restart development until my summer holiday. -Capy
When is this plugin coming out? Please let me know :)
@Capybara_King Please start working on this plugin again! Also I have an idea for how to choose the kits. You should have it so you select your kit by clicking on a sign. This also should be used for joining specific arenas. Ex: 5 signs with different links do 5 different arenas. Also the kits should have an option for a donor class or two. If this plugin gets finished I know that it will be a success. Plus if you are going to have it so people that did the most damage are chosen as the juggernaut, the juggernaut shouldn't be able to be the juggernaut twice in a row, unless they have a juggernaut pass. The juggernaut pass could be something like a donor perk. I hope you read this message and consider my thoughts about it. If you are a little confused, feel free to email me at [email protected] Sincerely, Untwinxer
Thx
@TheFitSoldier
Players will have an option to choose a class, and there will be a class configuration file.

The juggernaut IS going to have these features. Crits are interesting - I may implement them. Also this plugin is still in development, can't give an exact date. I am planning to work on it a lot in the summer, recently I have been busy at school.
And... For about how many days will you finish this plugin. :)
An idea. Why wont be more saxtone "juggernaut For example a fast-running ,a crit-damage, a high-jumping or anything else...
I am adding many games in my Hub, this being one, so, can you/we implement kits in this? I was hoping we could make our own, or at the least rename them. OR, use an outside kit maker and use commands.
@shahiem99
I can't believe I forgot in-game rewards! I had thought of giving winning teams prizes, but I think buffing players the longer they survive is a great idea! However, they can't be buffed too much, otherwise the juggernaut will have a hard time fighting them.
Can You add reward also? Like Xp money or cash to the winning team , pLayers or juggernauts
and maybe if some 1 diesingame the survirvied players get bonus items longer survivers than others
@Aduci
This plugin is still in development. It has been on hold for a few weeks as I have had lots of exams at school, which are very important in terms of career choices etc, so I had to leave the project for a bit. I will post on here when the plugin is available to download. So far I have scraped the code multiple times, but with luck, I will be able to write a bug free plugin. - Capy
But where is the link to download???
I think it was very cool if the juggernaut have stuff like speed,strengh and jumpboost :D i think the juggernaut dont have great live because he have a good armor i think he must have 20 live without armor but i dont know how it will work xDD
I have been very busy with exams and the like (3 next week) so progress is going slow. The plugin will probably not be out by May.
PLs make that the juggernaut is random !!!!! i will do that premiums on my server have 10 passes to be the juggernaut xD pls make this ! i will be very happy :D i will make this on my server :) pls add me in skype : jonzockt :)
Do you think this plugin will be uploaded by May? I'm starting a HUGE war server like MineZ and this plugin would look really nice.
@TheFitSoldier
Very interesting idea! Maybe for massive games, multiple juggernauts could be configurable! Thanks for the suggestion. -Capy
