Terraria didn`t really do it for me. It feels like it can be beat, like there`s an end to it. When I sense that ending, I usually stop playing the game and never finish. (Hi2u kingdom hearts1&2, FFXII) My boyfriend and his friend had demon armor and molten shiznit within the first week, and I haven`t really touched it since.

Back on topic: I love it when I can see the new additions built on in the tec map. Could some of you who`re building things link your location/site on the map so I can watch you too? D;

Whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaat:

Speaking of mods...

[Kaisha]

I want that anchor/rope, now. Everything is so damn well thought out in that mod...., had to have taken the programmer awhile to brainstorm it all through.

Concrete would be awesome if it didn't spread as unwieldy as it did in the vid. Huge griefing potential.

[Doombear]

Yeah there is a ton of shit in that mod that impressed me. Very well done.

[Helm]

Badass.

[Deftscythe]

I'm assuming the concrete is meant to be poured into a mold of sorts.

[Mots]

I'm I the only one that is feeling really let down by the work that Mojang is doing to the game? I mean, when you look at some of the mods that people have been making(like the one above) and the things that Mojang is putting out I cant help but be disappointed.

[miokomioko]

Totally. He basically hired a bunch of people with the Minecraft sale money... to work on a different game (Scrolls). It's pretty much still just him and Jeb working on Minecraft, with graphics whipped up by Junkboy when needed.

It's really frustrating to watch fans put harder (and better) work into a game than the guy who is being payed (handsomely) to do nothing but work on it.

[Karbuncle]

You should read the Minecraft Forums.

They pretty much hate him there for the reasons you named above. You have modders putting out 100x better content than he does, and 50x the speed.

[Chrian]

take everything back I'm getting that mod elevators.

[Souj]

bleh, I somehow got way off on the wooden staircase section. It needs to be way shorter and a bit more closer to the bridge. Gotta tear down the whole section :/

Spoiler: show

When you start making money from a game you get stuck with the responsibility of making everything ultra stable and make sure it works for everyone who bought a copy of it which is something modders don't have to deal with. Most of these mods you saw are too unstable to become mainstream.

[Souj]

I asked this a page ago but I guess it got overshadowed.

Probably gonna be hard to word this right...
How much room is there per server? Having a lot of people trying to build stuff, it would seem like there would be heavy restrictions on space/size aside from the obvious cooperation required for any coexistence.

[Ragns]

How much room is there per server?

What do you mean? Minecraft is unlimited.

[Timwakefield]

Jesus that mod is incredible. I wish you play that on our multiplayer server.

[Souj]

What do you mean? Minecraft is unlimited.

I meant world size. I'm not sure how huge a world is in Minecraft, so wasnt sure how many people could fit and build stuff without being hindered by others.

(completely made up numbers inc.) like if it was 8sq miles and each person got a sq mile, it could only hold 8 without causing problems with/for people.

[Karbuncle]

As far as i know the Map is infinite in size, It will simply keep creating chunks the further out you go. I recall reading somewhere if you go too far old chunks would be deleted/replaced... But I could be recalling wrong.

[Jojimbo]

It's virtually unlimited, I think they said it could generate 8 times the surface area of the Earth before running into technical limitations?

EDIT:: here is a post Notch made on map size.
