1.3 World Ideas

I was thinking about some ideas for 1.3 when it drops.
The first being a server with minimal plugins (BB/Lockette and Essentials)
Now, I don't know if many watch the MineCrack Server (Etho, Pause, Beef, BDoubleO, Guude, Mhykol, etc.) but what if we had a world like that.
Everyone travels out and builds their own home (Or with others) and they're connected with Portals. They have a huge central Hub in the Nether to go to eachother's homes and that. I think i'd be pretty cool to do that on FoolHouse, maybe get some people recording Let's Plays again (I will if I can get Fraps to run properly).

We could set up our own trade economy as well. If we build a central hub we can have chests with free stuff for people to take, and put stuff in as they come and go, a 'Trade Wall' like we've had before (The signs at spawn) and that stuff.

I think it'd be cool to have our own areas for houses, and make it basically a Free for all. We can build towns here and there and connect those via Minecarts. I know I'll be finding a Desert if we have a FFA, I'd like to find a 1.3 Pyramid and a Desert Town..

Also, for those who saw the CandyLand Prank Zisteau did to Beef I think it'd be fun to build Candyland town. It'd give use to all the wool in the game.

Feel free to add suggestions and that, I know we probably have another topic about this, but I wanted to throw my ideas out there.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but aren't we trying to be different from other Minecraft servers?

These are just Ideas.

We have tried a lot of different themes. I just thought people would like to try a Free for All. It doesn't have to be 100% like it. I'd just be cool to have something like this. They're just ideas for people to think of.

I was thinking earlier about making a thread about this.. I guess I don't have to :P

BB/Lockette just has to be there. People still steal. Even though we are a family.
I love the Mindcrackers, I watch Etho, Pause, Bdubs, Guude, Beef, Zisteau.
I love the idea of having a world like them.
I also like to help making the nether hub.

I'd think we should be allowed XP Farms, as on MineCrack they all have their own mob farms/XP farms, and a huge Public Ender Farm they all use.


I think you know my answer.

We could set up our own trade economy as well. If we build a central hub we can have chests with free stuff for people to take, and put stuff in as they come and go, a 'Trade Wall' like we've had before (The signs at spawn) and that stuff.

People are still stealing. I think they just have to make a trade wall, and no free stuff in chests.

YES.

Zisteau owns the prank wars at the moment.

No one else does. Please elaborate.

Personally, I don't feel we should have a single mob farm/xp farm on the server. If you'd like to ruin the fun and eliminate the challenge, go do it on your own terms in single player. Not where it creates unfair advantages in a competitive realm.

I completely agree. We try and do these different ideas with iConomy, and other plug-ins but you guys say it's suppose to be a challenge? A challenge isn't where you can go buy items. Being able to make Mob traps, ender farms, and using the Nether and shit would get more players back into the Minecraft.

Most of you know the community would love to be able to do this.

I totally agree with whiteout here, EXP traps or mobtraps in general aren't ruining the game.

This game is Minecraft a game where you try to survive in the best way you can think of.
You try to make this game easier for yourself so you can start making bigger projects etc.
A mob trap is one of those things. Just because it's not a crafting recipe doesn't mean we shouldn't use or make it.
building a house makes the game easier too, does that mean we can't build homes anymore? You tell me.

Just think about that for a second.

Not being allowed making a mobtrap is like saying ''hey don't build a house, it makes the game to easy. Besides it's not a recipe in your 3x3 crafting square''.

Also, for many people building traps is a part of the game it's fun, I like those projects more than just gathering resources making your house and be done with the game, or maybe if you're really feeling it making another house (WOOOOHOOO!!).


All the other ideas look pretty sweet, though I don't think we can make a world connected through nether portals like some of you guys want to.
Our community is too big, you will have people that can make a portal quicker than others they might not make it in their portal in the hub.
And ofcourse were not as close as they are (the Mindcrackers), it makes it harder to work together.

Also: WE NEED A SPAWN TOWN, look at other servers around you. Servers that have no spawn town with plots all look like shit.
Ask the 'new' guy Hypnoised about it. He was a mod on a server some of you might know as; CraftedMovie (it's pretty big).
The community all made ugly stuff just to have a 'big' house nearby the spawnpoint, we shouldn't allow people to do that.

A clean and nice looking world will make it a lot more appealing to start playing on it.

I've just built The end trap for endermen, and I have to say it's probabily the most challenging thing i've done on minecraft, I had to gather over 6 stacks of sticky pistons whilst getting fucked over by endermen, ended up losing countless items and whatnot..The challenge itself is actually building the trap. Just my 2 cents

I agree, since our community is 'bigger' than the Mindcrackers we couldn't simply just have a big room of portals. That wouldn't look organized, and again this is when I say the community can be hardasses at. Mindcraft is something you take your imagination too, and survive the best way possible.

^This. When building a mob trap it's not just a 5 minute project, it takes time. You have to gather materials, figure out how you are going to build and THEN build the friggin thing.

The end trap is definitely a hard thing to do. I did it on a single player world before and it does take a long time. As for normal mob traps. I can have a full mob trap running in like 1,/2 hours with diamonds tools. Reg mob farms/exp farms are too easy. As for the Enderman farm, I'm all for it.

Here are some Themes we can throw into the pile:
Underground Commons (Level 20ish so the void fog doesn't hurt us)
Sky-World Commons
Under Water Commons
Jungle Commons
Desert Commons
Futuristic City Commons (Have been threads about one)

Am I the only person who wants to make asking, begging, arguing, or discussing mob spawners a fucking 3 day ban. So sick of this being rehashed..

I swear if tomorrow I made up a bullshit rule that it's now illegal to stack 15 logs on top of 15 smooth stone blocks, we'd have a dozen threads of people arguing how it's soooo important and doesn't really affect anyone, and we should totally be able to do it.. yada yada yada.

This has been a rule since World 1. We don't do mob spawners. Either get on board with the idea, or play somewhere else. I really want this discussion to be over.

Now, back onto the original discussion. Next world, I'd like a post-apocalyptic modern/future city. This image accurately sums up what would be awesome. We could have hidden/underground rooms/safehouses, etc.

http://cdn.planetminecraft.com/files/resource_media/screenshot/1218/TownHall_2155346.png

That's just me though, and ultimately I don't play the game much so I won't be butthurt if you guys want to do a diff theme, I just think it could be epic, different, and fun.

This might sound stupid but,

what kind of mob farms do you have in mind, like, mob spawners? Or XP farms?

I'm thinking about making your own spawning thing, like no spawners in use etc. Or do you mean that too?

I like that idea, we could also have "Vaults" underground, Fallout style or to store items.
We could have some of the city built up and futuristic looking, and then have the other side look old and ruined, like it was never rebuilt.

Yes, I'm all for this post-apocalyptic, also can we not just make a poll with different server ideas instead of everyone repeating: 'OOH this sounds cool!!! great idea!! :DDD' this way we can easily see how many people want what. And hate to break it to you bud but majority always wins...

It would be cool if we had World 5 up for a couple of days to explore and reminisce. Then we could try out your idea and make the city look as if it just went through an apocalypse by blowing some parts up, throwing some meteors around, growing leaves/vines, and trying to make buildings look as if they had collapsed. It would look pretty epic and would be a hell of a lot of fun to do.

I was thinking of things to suggest, and something that seemed pretty cool to me at least was this. :blink:

What if we hollowed out a huge cave deep underground, and make it like an underground city (something similar to what is in Assassins Creed Revelations)

There could be some towers and buildings built and put up for sale for people to buy and live in, as well as the option to construct your own houses as well. :o

I know this is pretty basic, but it could look really cool, and its different from what most servers have. :D

Thanks

Are there any mods that allow us to change glow stone colors? So like using dyes and glowstone to make blue glowstone, purple etc? That would be cool for an underground cave world. You could make them almost look like naturally forming crystals :D
