Server Spotlight: Mountain Crater

Welcome to another brand new series on ROBLOXia today. In this edition of Server Spotlight, we take a look at Mountain Crater, a great server maintained by MasterDaniel, where selected players build in a crater which is overshadowed by numerous mountains. Even though this is my place, I will not be biased when talking about it.


This is the thumbnail for the place and it is really cool and dynamic. It is in a good location and shows the most up to date image of the town. That makes it a cool thumbnail. The town features the biggest Wiring University in ROBLOX and a University called the MCU. The town contains all the facilities you'd expect; shops, hotels, housing, hospitals and schools. 

What I really like about the game is the virtual economy, players in the game build up cash slowly over time, or by completing jobs for others. It encourages people to work for money and shows them an insight into what the real world it like.



However, tools are hard to come by in this server which is targeted often by griefers. The games received 1,694 visits since it was created and has been often seen with almost full servers of 30 people. Tools are hard to come by and people who ask put themselves at risk of a ban.




Pros:

  • Good looking place with some nice terrain features and buildings to keep people interested.
  • There is minimal griefing, but at the expense of free tools
  • There is an ingame economy
  • There is very little lag
  • Hospitals and other community buildings are good for role-playing

Cons:

  • Tools aren't given out very often
  • There are high brick counts
Overall


This is a nice server that many people will enjoy, if they get tools. However it is still quite enjoyable roleplaying with other players in the schools and hospitals.

Thats it for this edition of Server Spotlight, I hope more are to come! Maybe I will be visiting your personal server next!
