SolarSurge Posted October 17, 2011 Share Posted October 17, 2011 I'm surprised someone hasn't made a BZP Minecraft server yet, what with the amount of fans here. Anyways, I've decided to hold off the pre-releases until the official 1.9 comes out, despite the temptations.

Leg O'Brick Posted October 17, 2011 Share Posted October 17, 2011 Same! It's a school laptop, so it's junk. Minecraft barely runs on it, and Minecraft is generally a pretty lightweight game. I don't think it's actually that lightweight... My computer can run Portal 2 with great graphics fine, but with MC it can have low frame rate on short. Also, if you have these issues and haven't already, try Optifine. It boosts fps by a ton. You have no idea. I have a 2.4 GHz i3 CPU (so far so good, right?) but it gets worse. I have 64 MB of dedicated graphics memory, NO graphics card, and 2 GB of RAM. Minecraft is the only 3D program I can run. My machine is so pathetic, I can't even render transparency in a game like iji (a 2D game). Quote Nuparu's BoomBoxor is temporarily out of commission (been infected by some malware & whatnot, curse those anonymous russian bots). I guess I'll get around to putting it back up eventually. Maybe when Templar finally get around to re-doing the soundtrack to MNOG. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roablin Posted October 17, 2011 Share Posted October 17, 2011 Over the downtime I bought Minecraft and since I've been playing it a ton as a result of the downtime. I'm glad I did. I've had no experience with multiplayer with a few exceptions, so 98% of my MC experience has been in single player. So, um, is there any difference between multiplayer and single player? YES. If you get high enough privileges, you can use commands to teleport you, give you stuff, and more. You can also use plugins if you're setting up a server to make it awesome. That's totally not what servers are for. The only real differences are that more people are on the same world. There are way more mods for singleplayer than for multiplayer, and many are professionally made that add to gameplay, not just hacking. There are a few moderator makers that I respect more than Notch. Anyone here watch the Yogscast? They're easily my favourite gamers out there at the moment. Their Shadow of Israphel is cooler than any invention for Minecraft I've ever seen. It's what Red Vs Blue is to Halo IMO. I watch them when I have time to waste. It's pretty interesting just to see how they do things. I played Pre-release 3, and thought it was cool, but all the chemistry and alchemy... It's so confusing, you need a guide. But I keep on switching back to 1.8, simply because most servers don't have 1.9pre on them yet. Well, with enchantments there doesn't seem to be any pattern at all. The alphabet they use just spells something random that doesn't have anything do with what it's enchanting. I've been thinking though, there are already people who've replaced the text with the normal alphabet. Maybe I could switch it with Bionicle runes.

Field Marshal Rakmon Posted October 17, 2011 Share Posted October 17, 2011 I've been playing sine 1.5, mainly i've been on a multiplayer server called mc.supremserver.com. A lot of my friends IRL and from other forums are on there. I've set up base in a town called Radiation. My account is Rrose79, my skin is mainly blue and gey with a Trollface, though I'm planning to switch to a different account called Rakmon_, since my old account's email address is going to be deleted soonish. I've spent far too much time on 1.9 Prerelease 4 spawning Endedragons using a glitch. Once the full release comes out and SPC is updated, I'm probably just going to endlessly spawn Giants and EnderDragons, trying to see if I can get them to fight each other. It's good being back on BZP. Quote Signature Guidelines: Signature may not exceed the 800x300 limit. For more reference use the box located in your signature editor.

Griefing is just sad; I can understand if you're on a survival server and desperately need food or some tools, but otherwise, it's just wrong. Stealing is a gray area for me; destruction of property is just sick. It takes people weeks upon weeks sometimes to build amazing compounds, and then some fool comes along and destroys it in five minutes, or if they're in a group, a minute. Destroying other's things is just wrong, whether it's irl or in internet-space.

DYLAN the SINKING STAR Posted October 17, 2011 Share Posted October 17, 2011 If you think we've ever had the chance to grief an amazing creation, you're wrong. A smart enough server will protect all of their good creations and buildings. A server that is dumb enough to not have an anti-griefing system in place will not contain players that make good houses anyway. I don't have an internal hatred for myself, so believe me, I'm not about to wreck something that is awe-inspiring. And yeah, I pretty much posted that just to see your reactions, and defend myself.

DYLAN the SINKING STAR Posted October 17, 2011 Share Posted October 17, 2011 I just like to give you guys a different point of view. I used to think griefers were dumb until I tried it out one time. One of my friends keeps finding different hack clients, so we use those a lot. I enjoy getting a bunch of diamond in a matter of minutes and running around through town with full diamond armor. Griefing doesn't have to be done in a form of destruction. If you want to be safe from griefers, join a whitelist server. Personally, I'm too lazy to sign up, so it keeps me away.

Chibinuva Posted October 17, 2011 Share Posted October 17, 2011 See, this is why servers should have what I have dubbed "griefing spots," aka areas with different things that can be destroyed, such as a statue, along with something to deface/destroy it, such a chest or two filled with cakes to cake the statue with. Problem is, I dunno how much fun griefing is when the server owners are basically saying "here's some stuff and a work of art, go have fun."

Roablin Posted October 18, 2011 Share Posted October 18, 2011 (edited) I remember on Scorches last BZP server, I accidentally burned down someone's cactus farm, which resulted in mass flooding and destruction. I spent roughly an hour and a half helping to put it back together. And now on a war server, I casually grief houses every day to keep the land clear. There, it isn't bad, and every time I log back on I find my house similarly griefed. There I grief for no other reason then that something is there to grief. That server is horrible. On a war server I had with my brother, the whole point was to find the other's secret base and blow it sky-high. Out of all the servers I've played on, the last was the funnest. Even though my base wasn't secret, my bro never had tnt. =D And that is my experience griefing. ~Roablin Edited October 18, 2011 by Roablin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
.:Cyber-JM:. Posted October 18, 2011 Share Posted October 18, 2011 I do think griefing is fun. If you actually get the person you're griefing to laugh and grief back, then it is a lot more fun. But destroying a statue/town/pixelart than someone took ages to do, then you'll be taking as a noob that only cares to destroy incredible creations, thus been banned or constantly killed. I once griefed a house in a new server just to get some coal. XD But never came back to the server anyways. Quote No banner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
