demby123 Posted August 17, 2010 Share Posted August 17, 2010 Minecraft is a sandbox construction game created by Markus Persson and is currently in pre release alpha. Minecraft development started around the 10th of May 2009, pre-orders for the full game started being accepted on the 13th of June. The game involves players creating and destroying various types of blocks in a three dimensional environment. The player takes an avatar that can destroy or create blocks, forming fantastic structures, creations and artwork across the various multiplayer servers in multiple game modes. * Play Minecraft here [spoiler=my progress]I've made a nice shack so far, but I'm thinking about expanding it by adding a snipers perch to defend it from creepers and the like. Anybody know the best place to find spiders? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Orpheus Posted August 17, 2010 Share Posted August 17, 2010 The dude behind Minecraft is awesome. He apparently only spent one day getting the multiplayer coding done, and it works rather well from what I've heard. I was going to eat hot dogs for dinner tonight. I think I will settle for cereal.

H2PM Posted August 17, 2010 Share Posted August 17, 2010 I love this game so much.Made this in a server that live streams Minecraft: If you get the reference, props to you. I also have a Bill skin from Left 4 Dead. Will probably post some pictures on my current save soon.

Seraphi Posted August 17, 2010 Share Posted August 17, 2010 Yeah, Notch codes at an absurd pace, like Toady with DF. Speaking of Toady, the main reason I like minecraft because it has a kind of dorfy feel to it. Unfortunately, SMP will not run on my computer for reasons unknown, so I'll have to wait till I get my new one in a little while for that. Still, regular infdev is fun to play for the time being, as well as creative. I'm Builder+ on a server I go on because I built a ton of pokemon models when I was bored one night. Not sure if any are left, but I have pictures of one or two. [hide][/hide] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sarg1010 Posted August 17, 2010 Share Posted August 17, 2010 I played this a bit, didn't buy it or anything like that. It was fun for a bit online... but then it just got boring <_< Never much to do. When did they add weapons? I've also seen a video about it where someone made Earth... Who has time to do that >.< Unfinished netherrack symbol of Khorne.

nine naked men Posted August 17, 2010 Share Posted August 17, 2010 Pretty awesome. I used to play on the WoW's OT forum server, but I lost the URL after a couple months and didn't both finding it again. : ( I usually manage to get myself killed by spiders in Survival mode, because I have no idea what to do. D: I think one time I made it to nightfall. And that was [bleep]ing terrifying. There were what I guessed was zombies everywhere. I tried hiding in a cave. That did not end well. /shudder sleep like dead men wake up like dead men Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe what he meant also could be leaving it dark, as enemy mobs spawn nearby in the dark. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zilla Posted August 22, 2010 Share Posted August 22, 2010 This took about fifteen minutes of work, after I had the materials. It's a 64x64x64 cube of water smack in the middle of the map, and might take as much as a day to remove without hacking it out of the map data (depends on how you feel about placing 4096 blocks by hand while trying to stay afloat in downward current). What you need to bring about your own Noahic deluge: Two buckets of water, and lots of dirt. These are materials that could be gathered inside of ten minutes, assuming there's any iron to be found at all on the map. How to do it:Pillar up to the very top of the map with your dirt. Once there, dig back down one level so that you have room to place all the water.Carefully start building diagonally out from the edge of the pillar, alternating from the north to the east or whichever, until you've built four blocks out or so.Place the first water block on top of the pillar. Place the second water block on the block diagonally adjacent to the pillar.Dig away all the dirt that's under water to let it all fall down.Grab a bucketfull of water from the nearest spring (it will automatically regenerate)Build out a little bit more diagonally so that you have room to back upPlace a water block diagonally adjacent to the mass of water you're growning (it will run down the sides)Repeat steps 4-7 until somebody notices and bans you/tries to kill you.From Minecraft Forums, I tried it and filled up a bit area on my Survival World ______ Also, here is my texture pack.

Zilla Posted August 23, 2010 Share Posted August 23, 2010 Should we create a TIFCraft server? It would be a nice little thing, and I bet if we work together we can make some crazy stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
