Sounds little too much like quick quid. If intended you need an advert with scody praising the system whilst nursing a broken arm.

Also can we use these weapons against mine n co ? Seems appropriate for after they cripple us with interest rates. :P

I've fallen so far behind on this map, is it worth my while starting now or will it be reset soon?

No man , this question comes up all the time. A reset only happens to add major content to the map , the reason it was done last time was to add the jungle biome, AFAIK there is nothing major going into the map generation in 1.3.

There is a few desert temples and jungle ruins but that is it, not enough for a reset.

Actually there are a few other big changes

-The combination of single player and multiplayer to one game mode
-Integrated modding API

While this seems like behind the scene stuff it is important as it means all mods will have to be remade. It also means no more bukkit. Assuming these are included properly in the next update then we will have a map reset.

1.3 is going to be a good one. The new lads in Mojang are putting in a sterling job.

what's this place? How come it's outside the map? Not that I'd wanna go there, looks like a dump :pac:

Someone got there somehow, and it rendered before the world border kicked in I suppose.

They definitely do exist alright, though there's options not to render villages.

There's loads on the map, just none near the spawn for some reason.

Also, when people say they want to reset the map, does that mean get rid of everything that's been created goes and a brand new map starts? If so, that's ridiculous. The map isn't even remotely close to been explored. everything under the town is done I imagine yes but branching out there's still plenty to do. Can you move the spawn point maybe to get a town started somewhere else?

Also, Ireland...shame. Reality check kicks in for a lot of people but our fans are unreal

Yes resetting the map is start a whole new world with nothing but the skin on your back.

The thing about resetting the map is it keeps things fresh, alot of people are getting bored at this stage, though all this talk is preventing people from starting big projects...

Then they should go and play on server that refreshes more often ?

I for one would be unlikely to continue to play if there's a another reset so soon. The logic seems to be to fill spawn with building and then sit back any wait for the next update. What's stopping those people who want to build new things on the existing server? What is it that 1.3 would give them that they can't continue without on the current map?

A lot of people are getting bored?!? are you serious? The amount of the map that is still around, waiting to be excavated. The amount of projects that could be completed. People are getting bored?!? That's like getting this for Christmas...



building this...



then complaining you're bored?!?

If you could reset the spawn into a spot that is untouched, I'd be more than happy setting up there, just build an epic railway to the town at present and happy days!

I made a prison! only used 2 times properly tho.

Also the map thing is true although some people can find it very frustrating to have their work removed. I for one don't see it as that bad At present moment, could change in future if i make anything nice :P

One of us must have added an extra 0 when we were tp'ing around the place.

Also, about the map being reset...
Minecraft is easy, especially so when there's a bunch of people to help you out online. After a while, no matter how skilled or not you are at the game, you acquire enough materials and are so self sufficient that it just becomes more like creative and all of the 'survival' is taken out of it. People stop coming on because they've already accomplished everything they set out to and so the map kind of falls into a state of disarray.
It's usually at this point we do a map reset. Everyone starts off with nothing again and they have to work to survive.

The map is always available for download after a reset and we do discuss things about the map for a while after it is taken down, so don't worry, all your creations are immortalised and talked about. Plus, with the amount of content that 1.3 is adding and the fact that it's changing how the game is actually run it seems like a good time to do a reset. Keep in mind this won't be immediately when 1.3 comes out. We tend to wait a few weeks to make sure any major bugs are fixed, and most importantly the plugins we need are updated (or in this case maybe completely rewritten).

So in short, there isn't a reset in the works for at least another month or so.

It seems that alot of the new people are complaining about the reset , while people on the server for a long time are willing ??

Better start using my diamonds then so :pac:

No TBH you've got it all wrong, suppose you get the lego death star (Awesome BTW) for christmas , you build it and your so proud of it.

Then What? Are you just going to sit there and stare at the thing for years on end or are you going to break it apart and try build something completely different.

There are so many people on this server where the map isn't a challenge anymore, i remember being fecking terrified of skeletons and spiders for ages because i had almost no food, no Armour and a stone sword.

Now we're all running around in diamond Armour with enchanted swords with stacks of food.

Well, that I imagine is exactly it. Some people, myself included, are really only getting started. I have my house and enough materials sorted but only starting to explore my mine. some people are still in their 3*3 huts!

My solution is instead of all the seasoned users to call for a map reset, set up camp in a remote area of the map that's unexplored. Set up a rail system to connect the old town so you can pop in to say hello . I know a lot of people are set up pretty handily at the moment with a crazy amount of diamonds, etc. but if you want a real survival experience, just move to a new town and throw your materials in lava. Don't reset the whole town cause there are people just starting and could really contribute to the map in their own way.

If you bought a house with an acre of land in the back, you wouldn't make a 2m squared rookery, admire it, then move house would you?






ps don't throw your diamonds in lava, buzz up to my gaf...I suck yo dick!
