  1. I honestly thought I knew how to play Minecraft vanilla, until I saw these photos! LOL. Hi guys! It's been ages! Sorry I've been away, but life dragged me to something else. I'm now realising that I'm a bit of a drifter! Like a thing you've lost and pops up when you forgot about it already. LMAO. Have you got any more space to include me to your MOD looking Vanilla Minecraft world? 

  2. @Greboth, sounds like a plan. I'll get my stuff done and be online sometime this PM.

     

    @tronic44, not going to lie, demolition zombies with any base doesn't mix well. lol. 

     

    Thinking about the garage, I remember that if you use the steep part of the wedge tips, it creates a really steep ramp. Too steep that even zombies can't go up. Despite this, their AI still sees it as a viable way to get to humans. This was on the previous alpha but not sure if this is still the case on alpha 19. We can somehow take advantage of this feature if it works in creating our new base as a choke point if you want. We can see if we can do this as part of the base planning. Has anyone else tested this theory? If not, I can test it and find out.

  3. I'll be getting on at some point today and will see what I've unlocked to build stuff we need.

     

    To summarise, we need:

    - pocket mods

    - steel armour

    - more bikes

     

    @Greboth has unlocked making steel clubs. Can you make us some steel clubs please? I'm still using a level 6 wooden club with mods. 😂 not very effective at killing multiple zombies at a time. 😅

     

    Were in a really good place with ammo since we have thousands of gun powder and bullet tips. Unfortunately, we are always lacking on brass which is always harder to get loads of. 

     

    I've got the brass perk for sinks and plumbing. Grebo has the perk for doors. @Greboth we can spend all day looting houses for brass if you want. 🤪

    A little update from today; I think I may have found the best book ever! I get the brass door handle from every door I knock down so all the brass for us 😄

     

    Crispy and I went to do a quest which turned in to more of a hunt as we found a few chicken, 2 deer and then I found a bear on the way back so about 140 meat and we weren't even trying to find animals.  I think you're right about food though, I have the first level unlocked but moved on to unlocking other things.  I want to get the next tier of extra meat then I think I'll put some points in to master chef so I can cook all the food I'm bringing back.

     

    I've also made an iron pick, so I think I'll go mining as I've marked so many iron, lead, nitrate on coal on my map it should be easy for me to dig some up.

    We are so going to want that perk especially during end game when it's harder to come by brass! Nice one. You're the door destroyer. 😂

    What is the pathing of the zombies like? Could we make a base like a tower defence game so the zombies will have to walk past a number of traps rather than a single row?

    I've not checked the pathing for zombies for Alpha 19 yet unfortunately. Although the last time I made a base in Alpha 18, zombies can't climb up high ramps (made from wedge) as too steep.

     

    So I made a pyramid using wedge blocks and stayed at the top. Was standing on iron bars shooting down at them. 

     

    Have you guys had any experiences with bases that worked for you?

    Right it’s settled, I’ll reset and upgrade the server when I get back tonight. This will be the last reset until we have to.

     

    I’ll start upgrading and resetting at 8, so if people want to jump on discord, we can talk through how we want it set up.

    Catch up later at 8pm on discord. 👍😋

    More than happy with the reset, its just been really good to learn about the game far more than I ever have to be honest. A new bigger map sounds exciting too.

     

    All i'd say about the base @crispymorgan  @phil bottle is that whilst I wasn't wedded to it either way, I would far more favour a random querky base than a standard square base that doesn't have any life to it. Personally, we've had so much on this one more than ever because of all the stupid and random things that have happened, which many things have because of how the base was built.

     

     

    I love that end phrase 🤣🤣 One thing to remember with this though is that its exciting and tense when we only have one base to defend as you know there's something at risk. If we had a separate place to fight Zombies, I don't think i'd be drawn in as much because, like i say, whats at risk other than yourself? You just spawn back in and pick up your backpack and away you go type of thing if you know what I mean?

     

    High risk, high reward is the way to go for an exciting and fun server imo.

    Pros and cons on the game. I've tried a few bases where everything was in 1 place. It does have an element of risk for sure. Happy to play either way and whatever works for everyone. It's different when you have lots of people to play with as well. 

     

    Looking forward to the new changes. 😝

  8. I'm in agreement with the reset. Definitely in agreement with @phil bottle. I think we only really need half the materials we've used on the existing base to make a better base from scratch. 

     

    It may be a good idea to discuss what the plans are for the new base and see what we can design. An idea as well - to have separate living space VS horde base. Don't shit where you eat kind of scenario. 😂

     

    I'm going to watch YouTube videos to get ideas. Glock9Gamer and Jawoodle are both my favourite 7D2D YouTubers.

  9. It's been some busy times for me and haven't been playing 7d2d as much as I'd like.

     

    I started doing this online course since it seemed like a good idea when I registered. lol.

    And I've been helping @Emma  with dyeing her hair blue.

     

    And also started watching Dragonball, the very first one from 1980s. I'm still not sure if this was a good idea since I now have the rest of my life to watch the remaining 1,000,000,000 episodes. LOL.

     

    So.... I was wondering if anyone wanted to play on Friday or Sunday? 

     

    @Plumbers Crack  your username is hard to associate with gentleman. 😂

    Facebook login authentication now works again after all those years. You can reathorise existing accounts by signing out the Facebook login connected to it and re-linking it.

     

    You link different accounts via the 'Account Settings' menu option, seen in your profile menu bar

    Thanks @craftofboredom for pointing this one out. Onto the Google one now!

     

     

    Good luck with that! hopefully you get it sorted soon.

    I tend to login with whichever one works. I typically prefer google and then use facebook.

    If that doesn't work, I will manually register. Technology is making people lazy as things become a bit more convenient. hehe.

    Good point, obviously the more that are on it would make for great lolz and XP for the sheer amount of Zombies that would be incoming.

     

    @tronic44 @crispymorgan  @phil bottle @Diddums @Greboth @craftofboredom   what nights are you all free this week starting from tonight?

     

    Anna, has Emma signed up yet so we can tag here in the shenanigans?

    She said she is going to do it now so she should be on it soon. I can do tonight if you're up for it. If not tonight, it would be Friday evening or Sunday anytime. 

  12. The next horde night is upon us. Were on day 27 pm now I believe. Last I checked was last night. Thought we'd jump on when there are more people to prepare for the horde night. We need more ammo and need some more reinforcing of the base. Looking forward to the next horde night with you guys! The more people that join in on the night, the more zombies should spawn. The more the merrier they say. haha. You guys planning on going on tonight?

    We can always arrange for a welcome pack like the posh holiday homes do so you don't hurt your hands too much!..you know, some nice food, maybe a few picks and shovels, some armour 🤣🤣

    Well, I'm kind of fed up with all the apples I'm getting from punching trees. I stole some bread from a villager and that was nice.

     

    One time, I even stole leather armour! it was me or the blacksmith so I had to choose for survival. 😝

     

    I would like some of that please. 😂 Then we can go swimming with the dolphins. Why not?!?

    Absolutely Anna, more than happy to have another crew member on board! Rich or Rachel we have nicknamed him! @tronic44 will be able to help with those details. As of late last night it was around Day 19 as we've recently started it again on the Alpha experimental build, lots of cool new things to craft and Zombies are packing a punch this time round.

     

    I did jump on last night after FG Fridays efforts just to make sure we are starting to have a bit more of a secure wall around the base, not as big as the entire Post Office where we are situated. It needs building up a little more and i think based on just the second horde night A LOT more spikes too. I can now craft Ak47s so gonna do some of them when i'm on next but we also need more Iron to get Forged Steel....I can now build us a 4x4 truck!

     

    I'll take a picture when i'm next on to show the progress  unless someone does it before me. Oh, we've also stacked out the Guns n Tools crate, so i've built a separate one for Tools but we just need to separate the weapons from the tools now 👍

     

    P.S. a few more skill points and we ain't far off a Gyrocopter...we could accelerate it all if someone found a Crucible!!

     

    Thanks for having me today. Will definitely be playing again soon! 🙂 
    You guys are awesome! @Diddums @tronic44 @phil bottle @crispymorgan . If I tagged the wrong person or missed people out, my bad. But you know who you are. lol.

    Hi and welcome to the forum 🙂

     

    As Plumber Dave said, Discord is great when playing on PC and for discussing Minecraft things.  There's a link to the FG discord at the top of the forum so you should be able to click that and join our discord server 🙂

     

    As for Minecraft, we have played a skyblock (Sky Factory 3) but, again, as Dave says we're currently playing FTB Revalations.  There's a couple of threads in the Minecraft section about setting up mods and the server details.  Unfortunately I'm rushing out right now but I'll find the links to the specific posts later.  If you can post (or pm me if you'd prefer) your minecraft username I will get you whitelisted on the server.

     

    My housemate has played FTB Revelations but I have never tried it before. 

    Sure, my username is craftofboredom on MC. 🙂

    I'll be a proper noob on this one, but at least I know how to punch trees.

    I think I’ve told you about this site before.....but they’re also free to play, with saves, on playclassic.com.  I forgot all about Heretic and Hexen.  Remember Blake Stone lol?  
     

    The amount of old PC games that you can play on that website is pretty insane.

    OMG, How is it possible that I only found out about this now?!? Thank you soooooooooo much! 🤪
