So guys, I was thinking a little other my last year in minecraft and I must say the most fun I had on the anarchy crackpack server. Dont get me wrong, my base was nuked at least 4 times and every time I had even more fun to rebuild it. We spent days on finding methods to locate players. Wrote CC programms to defend and designed booby traps to get taglocks from careless players. My Idea for a server: Boost this fun with clans. Like a server for clan wars. We create clans PRE LAUNCH. Each clan will get a forum/ teamspeak channel for communication. A clan might consists of like like 10 people working together. 1-2 Leader which are caring a little for organisation. like assigning work or other things. As modpack I am not really sure which to use because there are none that just scream "USE ME" out right now. I would prefere a pack like Mine your Galaxy with a progression. A pack without progression is really boring. Find diamonds, create quarry and you have like unlimited resources. With MYG this is not that easy, because you have to progress through the planets. The pack might need a few more mods for weapons and some need to be left out to make it really competitive. So the plan is. Find a good pack or create an own one with a good not to fast progression for the more powered machines / weapons. Create 3-4 Clans, before launche. People have to apply for a spot and a clan cant take new members if other clans are like 2 members behind. Balance is key here. Then clans have time to discuss their genereal plan for the play. Like who focus on what where to build and all the other stuff. On lauch all player hop on the server it is time for war. Everything is allowed! Curse, cut and nuke people. Clans must build a good hidden Base where ever they like and go out hunting when they think they are ready. I think there is one must have mod: Applied energistics. You can secure ur items because you can create the storage somewhere in no mans land and just link it to your base via ae2 bridge and secure with a securtiy station. this ensures even if a base is nuked or completly destroyed. you can not touch the main storage of a clan. so they can regroup, rebuild and strike back. Believe me there is nothing more satisfying than blasting a base into million pieces with nukes after your base was destroyed aswell. so who would join a clan and enter the fight?
Domination in packs would fall to the few who knew the bugs, basically if my universal team joined together with @MaelstromPhoenix 's team we'd win by deafault, but a factions server apparently according to @Crhymez is in planning, so let's see what the admins think about it
I have a custom pack that we might be able to use for something like this. It is pretty kitchen sinkish but thats what I see PvP packs as being anyway. The biggest complaint that I keep hearing about PvP is lack of protection and end game players destroying early-mid game players. A possible solution for this could be making separate worlds with separate resources like on MYG. Players can only get up to say diamonds in the early game world but in order to access the nether you have to be in the mid-game world. Mid game world would just be another overworld but you can't get certain end game items like say ichor or something like that (plugins for item control and configs for the ore gen). Idk if that would work well but in order to get a decent player base I feel like we have to address the concerns of the not as hardcore players.
Hey.... It wasnt me that said that. Check the Departed PvP thread for the original "leak" of the idea. I do know that after skyblock is done, A vanilla server may be in the works. But i dont know the details about it. All i do know is MyM is making huge steps towards vanilla and i love it.[DOUBLEPOST=1433092446][/DOUBLEPOST] We need a Potato Option AND the option to proclaim that "I" will be the leader of the largest and strongest faction on the server. Also have you not played or tried Trident?
The server that I have in mind is not for people joining 2 weeks later and playing alone. They might join a clan, if someone accepts them. You will have plenty of time to form/join a group before hand. Also in terms of balancing it would be fun if this already existing teams would split up and join different clans. Would make it way more challenging for all of us. Also there should be no protection in any ways. No plugins or other stuff. You would need to hide or protect ur base/stuff by the means the mods give you. No Thaumcraft for Warding and Stuff. No Witchery for Cursing/Summon people or do other nasty stuff. No Blood magic, no nothing. Wouldnt feel right.
Im all for this if we can get it running. I'm just thinking that without a good playerbase we can't get Founder approval. If you can find the players for this I'm all for it
