What draws you to a new pack? Leave your answer, and an example please. The version of Minecraft? A specific mod or group of mods? Quests? Friends Playing on it? Difficulty? Custom recipes to make you play with all the mods? Theme?
The version of Minecraft? -> 1.6.4 or 1.7.10 A specific mod or group of mods? -> Any pack without GregTech for 1.7 Quests?- not needed but appreciated for new pack -> I know how to progress Friends Playing on it? -> <instert forever alone meme here> Difficulty? -> hardcore or lower - i dont want to much struggle to craft a stick Custom recipes to make you play with all the mods? -> ofc, ore dictionary is essential Theme? -> Any theme but Huge NOPE for pure magic packs. I w8 for Doge theme pack And most important thing - I have low-spec laptop so new pack can't be too huge (e.g. PO2 starts 15-20 min. for me so i dont play it, kappa)
1.6+, I really don't care too much though. Thermal Everything, Applied Energistics (AE2 stuff, Thaumic Energistics, ExtraCells, ECT), most technology mods. Tinkers Construct is also fun. I prefer quests to get me started, but I usually break off from the questline early. Usually I'm the one who invites friends. Depends on the mood, sometimes I like a challenge. Other times I prefer to have casual gameplay focused on automation. Custom recipes that make you need to think of new ways to automate things are great, like autonomous activators to stick something in a barrel of lava, and a vac hopper to pick it up. I prefer technology, but I will dive into magic for fun tools, like thaumcraft wand foci, or the energy bazooka from blood magic.
Version of MC I like the idea of 1.10.2 packs but not if it means a badly made pack Specific mods I am a Fan of large Multi use mods that help out in general like enderIO but as many of you know I am a big fan of projectE (but it kinda does break the game ) I love the PSI mod that is in the 1.10 DW20 pack though Oh and I loathe any mod with a voltage system *cough cough* Industrial Craft *cough cough* Quests Whenever there's a pack with quests in it I always end up using the rewards from the starter quests to help me start out then throwing away the book so I'm not much of a fan of quests personally friends If I didn't have friends to play with I wouldn't play minecraft Dificulty I'm more of a casual play for building cool stuff and machines force you to play with all the mods Plz no... theme I like the idea of magic and tech mixing (like thaumcraft or PSI) Final thoughts Overall I play for fun with my friends, not for a challenge Tekkit legends for example is kind of lacking in the way of immersive mods in my oppinion the only reason I play it at all is projectE DW20 1.10.2 I think is a pretty good pack with enough immersive mods (like immersive engineering ) to keep you interested (especially okay for a 1.10.2 pack) And I like ozone 2
What draws me to a new Mod Pack? If/When I look for a new mod pack. I check to see what version it is, what the mods are, how many people have played/downloaded it, along with how often it has been updated. Oh and if there is a server for it too. -It doesn't really matter to me, but 1.7.10, 1.8.9 and 1.6.4 are good versions. -Personally, I like the magic and witchary mods, same with tech mods and furniture mods. - Depending on the modpack, I like the Quests, but if it is not needed, then no. -Friends: It sort of depends on if they like the pack or not, but usually I'm alone. -As said before, it depends on the modpack, just like the Quests. -Not really, unless the ingredients to make certain items are banned. -Don't have one, sorry.
