The seed "bobodenkirk" gives you two villages, one on top of a ravine, rather close to spawn. Now, if you want a challenge, "LOVE IS OVER" puts you on an island, with a pumpkin. If you want wood, you're going to have to swim for it.

It's really rather strange that the most sustainable source of wool in the game is now spiders.

Akoogly Eyes posted:So how about all the cool new Nether stuff that Jeb is (hopefully) adding in today, eh? Looks like we're going to be getting two new enemies and some sort of Nether dungeons. What sort of treasure should people get from exploring ruins in the Nether? It should probably be better than the regular world dungeons, to encourage people to brave the ghasts, fire and zombie pigmen for a chance at some sweet sweet loot. Psst... hey. Zombie Pigmen don't hurt you, at all, unless you start something. Then they gang up and whomp the piss out of you, but at that point you deserve it. Just think of them as your zombie pigbros and chill. Ghasts, however, still suck.

Baronjutter posted:So what are these poor guys? cows just infested with mushrooms? Actually fungal cows? They seem to have a normal cow under them. If there's horrible body-infesting mushrooms I'm almost surprised notch didn't add some system where if you spend too long in a mushroom biome you get infested too, with some sort of speed/health penalty. 1. Cordyceps. Eugh. 2. Heroshroom  Also, from my initial dicking around it seems that snowgolems can be a great part of a balanced defense grid. If any mobs make it past the cacti and burning netherrack, the knockback from the snowballs push them back into it. They can't shoot through iron bars, but can shoot over a fence just fine. It helps if you put a roof over them to help guard against skeleton arrows (which kill your snowmans readily) redmercer fucked around with this message at 00:41 on Sep 23, 2011 |

FactsAreUseless posted:I've never understood the need to completely explore a system of caves. I just treat them like the overworld: go in when I need something, carve out a small area, torch it, then leave. It's just too big to try to be feasible. For me, the cycle seems to go something like this. 1. Get established on a low level on any given survival map. 2. Find cool underground stuff until I find abandoned mines. 3. Immediately feel compulsive urge to light up the whole drat thing, pick up all the free rails, loot all the chests, and smash EVERY SINGLE GOD drat SPIDER SPAWNER. 4. Fail in this, lose some good diamond gear in the process, and start over on a new map. Abandoned mines are the DEVIL. And they are GREAT at dropping poisonous spiders on your head when you least expect it.

Bat Ham posted:Have people figured out an efficient way to deal with poison spiders/spawners yet? Because gently caress them. gently caress them gently caress them gently caress them gently caress them gently caress them. The old spawner tactic of 'clear a path, run in and torch it up' doesn't work so well when there are webs everywhere and I keep taking poison damage. It would be a lot easier if webs burned. But ifs and buts ain't candy and nuts. I have had some success in sealing off sections, then digging in close to the spawner and breaking it thusly.

Fuego Fish posted:I'd really like it if there were particular block co-ordinates that acted like endermen magnets. Every time they'd place a block, they'd try and place it as close to the "magnet spot" as possible. So that way you could end up with weird structures that encompassed, or reached up to, a particular point. Imagine finding a huge tower made from assorted blocks, stretching up towards the sky like a primitive attempt to commune with the gods. And now imagine returning to that tower with buckets of water, as if to act as the Metatron.

Bellend Sebastian posted:Anyone have a seed that has a stronghold, village, mine or mushroom biome close to spawn. I've made a bunch of worlds and gone exploring and not seen any of them yet. 777 has the first three close to spawn. Look for the village near x-150, y-500. There's a hollow mountain with some exposed stronghold bricks at ground level, which serves as a good entry point into the stronghold itself.

Serain posted:I have a similar thing going on in the basement of my house, but with only 15 or so chickens. I had them in fence before, but I think I'll change it to glass now! Makes for a much nicer view. However, I don't have get a lot of egg production out of my chickens. I have several chickens in a much more humane free-range farm (complete with lush grass, daisies, trees and their own watering hole) and the 6 or so chickens I have up above seem to produce eggs significantly quicker than the 15 chickens down here. Have you noticed any decreased egg production? And how do you get the chickens up jump up like that? Mine just sit idly in the water and flap. If I recall correctly, the Col. Tom Parker had a method for making chickens dance, but I don't know if you can implement that in Minecraft.

Devoyniche posted:Oh, what the gently caress? I guess they don't want to use the Elder Scrolls style alchemy system, but that one really is way better. Now there's no reason to even experiment with the potions because if you find one that is positive, there's no reason to use anything else. There's no reason to even have negative effect potions, really, because nobody will use them unless they have some balancing positive effect. Basically this. Also as it stands, the only way to make a good potion is with nether wart. As far as I can tell, nether wart only grows in incredibly specific places (on soul sand, in a nether fortress). And correct me if I'm wrong, but you can't even throw them, therefore no slowing down or poisoning whatever mob/prick is currently chasing you. I don't want to bitch, I just hope something's different in the next official release.
