Default Minecraft

Any Minecraft players out there?
Use this thread to post pictures of your builds!!!

A couple friends and I have a server, if any CA members want to join shoot me a PM.

This game is very addicting, a bit nerdy but I can look past that.
I love architecture and enjoy trying to build things.

Here are a few older pics from recent maps we had:

Yes, I give it a 6 out of 10 in the fun department but it has something special about it that keeps you wanting more. The low res graphics just work for the game play. My favorite part is just building things but there is much more you can do.

It's kind of like advanced legos meet RPG.
I don't like RPGs but I love this game.

Default Re: Minecraft

There isn't really a predefined objective. It's very sandboxy. Playing locally doesn't require much of an internet connection (it "phones home" when you start up, but that seems to be it.)

However, in the last couple versions they started adding little rpg elements. There's XP now (so you can level, but it doesn't affect anything yet.) There are (currently empty) towns, mines and a couple fortresses kicking around. I think I read something about them introducing NPCs in 1.9 (which can't be too terribly far away.)

Though now that Skyrim's out

I love Minecraft (especially multiplayer) and since I dont have skyrim...LOL

All my builds were on a multiplayer server that hasn't been updated... and probably never will.

It is only in beta form currently but if you purchase the beta for cheap, you get the gaem for free upon release. It is a game with no real rules or directions. You can play it however you choose. You can explore amazing computer generated landscapes or mine for unique building materials, you can run around killing animals or hunt bad guys at night. You can design the look of your character, mine is batman with a ginat BS on my back. You can build anything you can imagine. You can collect objects and turn them into better objects or tools.

Best way to describe it is a free play low res addicting game!

Look at some videos online, to get a little feel for it.
If you take the plunge PM me and I will get you onto my MP survivor server
I will even give you a diamond tool kit and some supplies to get started!

It is a survivor server currently, alot of people got bored and wanted some additional challenge so it was switched and reset. We have a nice little town so far with a nice train car system.

I'll send a PM with the info!

Actvity is a little slow right now due to everybody playing MW3 though.

Well let me know when you get back on and I will pop in and award you.
I have a meeting in 1.5 hours so it would have to be before that.

OOOOO sheep town. I will try and get on this afternoon, I am leaving the office now. Interested to see if the internet down here is even fast enough to do this. Last time I ran a speed test I was running at a blazing 100kb/s. That is .1mb/s.
