Board 8 > So Minecraft

(+) Yeah! (+)

A friend of mine has been playing this game since it started a looong time ago and finally got me to start.


Strangely addicting >_>


Any of you play it? Make anything INCREDIBLE?

Every so often I dig it out but then I get scared of monsters. >_> I don't wanna play with NO monsters but I find Creepers and Endermen and all that strangely terrifying. <_<

Dang ol' BlAcK TuRtLe man tell you what

I haven't played for about 6 months. It's addicting but the server I played on stopped and I lost all my stuff.

Haven't felt like getting back into it(and school keeps me busy).

Hey all this is Bartz btw.

My buddy made a private server where him and his wife have created a massive empire, so I've been playing on there. It's kind of funny, they have giant castles and railways in the sky and I just have a small wooden house in the nearby hills >_>


We were playing around and he took us to the Nether, where every 1 square you walk is 16 squares in the normal world so when you make a portal you come out so far away.

We ended up coming out 4000 blocks way from the kingdom, in one of the rare biomes where wolves are. We tamed a couple. I'm on my way back to my house with mine, this is some real Homeward Bound **** going on. Had a lot of really close calls with Creeper >_>

That wolf just tears zombies and spiders apart though ^_^

I stopped playing when all the super updates started earlier in the year. I just stopped caring.

Not to say it can't be fun. But there are other games I'd much rather play.

A big update will be coming in about a month, it's the "full" release of the game (though there will be more additions made at later times)

Yeah, I haven't played since the game changed dramatically. I took some screencaps of my first home base, though. Here's the area where I first began:

I just found a little alcove that I built a tiny little house in.


But every time I left my doorway, spiders would jump on me, so I decided the best way to deal with that was to build this.


I put two doors in it, so I could lure spiders one way, then escape out the other side. But then I felt that wasn't enough, either. So I built this on top.



The right door there leads to a ladder that I can either take up to the top of the tower.....


.....or directly down straight into the house (and later, down to the middle of the earth).


The left door leads to a more typical staircase.


When you get to the top, you can see as far as the fog lets you.


I don't think I've even played on this particular server since the Nether was introduced. I've played on a separate game where I've built various houses over the countryside with connecting underground tunnels.

these guys are pretty much the go to people for minecraft shenanigans. if you like minecraft, watching two british guys fumble around it while a story gradually starts unfolding will be similarly enjoyable.

There is no shame in not knowing; the shame lies in not finding out

I have the game and I administrate a server. I've pretty much done everything there is in the game except for building giant things, because whenever I build something it looks ugly. When I get some free time i'm gonna try and build something big, but i'm still in the concept stages.

Also this video is a better representation of what Minecraft is (note that he uses mods to get more mobs):

that video made my ears bleed and i question the odds of the video creator's intelligence approaching a real number. maybe it got better in the remaining minute and a half though...

but yeah, you can definitely do some crazy stuffs in minecraft for example:



mods can add so very much to the game it is scary

Heh, you know MSG, all that effort and you could have just built a bigger house >_>


I'm just imaging you building that giant defense and then going inside back into that cramped little house <_<




Anyway, any of you experiment with mechanisms at all? My friend built an elevator and a cobblestone generator. It's pretty damn amazing.

Jeez with buildcraft you might as well be playing on creative

The return of...Me_Pie_Three
BlAcK TuRtLe didn't even need to return

the yogscast combine that with coverage on industrialcraft, and it makes for some pretty complicated machinery. also nuclear reactors.

really, it kinda makes the whole business about collecting materials into a meta thing. it isn't so much "how do i collect" as it is "how do i best set up the thing that automatically collects"

sure, the end result is a ton of stuff you could get by using creative mode, but it takes out the engineering thought process which a lot of people find to be entertaining. seeing a creation automate and work exactly as you hoped it would? priceless. even if it might have taken 4 hours to create it.

Yeah, but I like knowing where my base came from. I only need the three chests to keep all my stuff, so a bigger house doesn't accomplish much. Besides, for all intents and purposes, the dome is just a huge clear house. That works for me.
