I decided to go on this one solo, so I downloaded the map, shoved that in my saves and then tried it out. The first thing, it isn't Air survival. The trouble was with this map, 9/10 of the time you're underground. And you descended using a huge ladder downwards. To be quite honest I was a bit dissapointed.
The cave system was great though. It had insane amounts of resources and I managed to farm obsidian with my new diamond pickaxe in under 5 minutes. That was pretty cool. Only real problem is the name. Maybe try making a huge floating island with amazing cave systems and such. Either that or you can try renaming it to Cave Survival. 3/5 - Good, but not what I had expected.
Second, making the ZIP files for the maps fancier.
Ever since I've played the Canopy Carnage Map, when I downloaded it I had a set of images, music stuff like that in different seperate folders, and the map was in one of the folders. I think it's really cool if Small Survival maps had a folder for just the map, and a folder for the rules and challenges. And maybe even a folder full of pictures. In fact I already have a few challenge and goal ideas for the Underwater Survival Map. Underwater Survival Map Goals
1. Get wood from the tree underwater
2. Make an underground mine
Underwater Survival Map Challenges
1. Make a house
2. Make a farm
3. Make a bookshelf
To complete the game by mining you have to collect every valuable resource in every generated chunk
To complete the game by crafting you have to construct a redstone device that causes the world of minecraft to supernova into a new star
Alternatively you can complete the game by Exploration.
To do so you must reach the end of the world.
I like the end of the world part. That's a big goal, so maybe that could be peoples' dreams...
I finish when the world holds nothing new for me, then I start a new one. However online always proves new and interesting because it's always different when you return and you want to out shine other players. So if ever you find single player boring, try an online server or invite some friends around for a LAN.
I think this is one of the reasons why Notch is going to introduce the bosses in 1.9. At this moment it is just gathering resources and build without any ending..
Hmm... Very good point! I've hadvn't taken 1.9 into consideration.
I've played minecraft since Beta 1.2, and the one thing that kept tugging on my mind is, when do I stop? When do I move on to another map? All I really do is build a house, find coal, find iron, find diamond, farm obsidian and build a portal. That for me is done. But what is REALLY finishing minecraft? Is it finding clay? Is it taming a wolf? Is it starting a farm? Making giant battle arenas? Making slime farms? I don't know. Luckily for me, there are millions of people that play Minecraft. What is finishing Minecraft? How do you finish Minecraft? Those are the two main questions I'm asking.
This is amazing! A whole series full of survival maps! Genius! Some feedback though on the Survival Underwater... Underwater Survival Review
Me and a friend decided to check it out, so I started up the server and we tried it out. First thing, I liked how you actually put down some nice simples rules. There isn't a platoon of rules for us to follow, and there was some basic survival gear. It took us a realise that we need to create air holes, but we quickly used the tree to our advantage. The only major hiccup was when we started to mine.
The only real fault of this survival map, is the dome. It was too small, and it need to go down deeper. So me and my buddy were stranded there, waiting for our trees to grow.
Also one more thing, but this isn't really anyone's fault (and if it is, it's really my fault!) and that's 1.8 and the hunger bar. Maybe you can give the player a few bits of food at the start! And to help increase the chance of animals spawning, so grass in a little island. So the main key points are, we need a starting grassy patch, insead of the cobblestone stuff. A few starting foods, with some seeds, and a bigger dome. Other than those, I thought it was an awesome map, same with my friend. So in this case: 9/10 (Excellent!)
Creepers, the most known mob in all of Minecraft. They are known for their infamous ablity to blow up their unsightly enemy and are supposely a pain for all Minecraft players! But what I want is more stuff to do with Creepers. I mean, they are the main mascot for Minecraft! Like maybe this idea might help.
Creeper's Deadly Companion
You've seen a Skeleton jockey right? So I thought about this and thought of it's most related companion, the Pig. For those that don't know what the hell I'm talking about read this:
The creeper was born when Notch made a pig model standing upright. The legs were in the right place, but the body was turned upright! That's a bit of history for yer
So what I'm going with is maybe Creepers riding pigs! That'll be amazing! The pig won't attack you or follow you, but the Creeper WILL explode if you try to attack the pork. So if you try and take away the Pig's Pork, the Creeper might decide to take YOUR life along with it! It'll be like + !
Creeper Variations
I know there is a very outdated mod of this, so I want to bring it back to glory with new ideas! What about Creepers that adapt to their biome? Like for example, caves. The difference! Cave Creepers
1. Because it's sight is really bad it's hearing is VERY high! So it can't see you! But if you move it can sense the varibrations you make! So this is one creeper you wouldn't want to run away from! You can just keep calm and stand until it wanders away.
2. If hit it will stand still and just blow up, so grabbing the gunpowder from this creeper isn't going to be easy!
3. It's slightly greyish and creates a larger boom than the average creeper.
4. It can only spawn on stone
Snow Creepers
1. It depends on it's sight and is the only Creeper that can see through walls!
2. It is slightly bluish and whitish and it creates a smaller boom than the average creeper
3. It can only spawn on ice and snow
4. It magically speeds up on ice and snow, but slows down when on other terrain.
5. It can heal in rain and snow
6. If zapped it will be vapourised completely
Friendly Creepers
1. They are neutruel
2. Creepers have a 5% chance of becoming one of these
3. They can be tamed with Pork
i. When being tamed you can equip them with armour and weapons
ii. They never blow up.
iii. They can follow you, but if right-clicked they will stay there
4. If attacked they explode straightaway
5. They have a boom that's as big as TNT
Nether Creepers
1. They are loyal to ZombiePigMen and will follow them.
2. When ZombiePigMen spawn they have a 10% chance of spawning next to them
3. They will attack you if you attack ZombiePigMen
4. They are Passive until you provoke a ZombiePigMen
5. They give 2 gunpowerder maximum
6. They can not be burnt by lava
7. They also become supercharged if hit by a Ghast's Fireball
Creeper Nests
I would loved to see a Creeper Nest with Creeper Eggs. Maybe you can break the eggs and take them. If you throw them you have a 50% chance of spawning a TAMED Friendly Creeper that won't despawn. But if it doesn't it just blows up otherwise. But getting these prizes are VERY diffucult, since they actually spawn Creepers themselves and break automatically, so it's quite hard to obtain one.
Well, that's my idea! If someone makes a mod out of this, I don't need credit I just want teh mod! That'll be epic! Just send me a link to the mod you've created or just show your support!
I love this idea a lot. You should make it so the animals can level up and gain more attack defence and speed. It'll be cool if you can make spefic armour for them that give them more defence then just random armour you create.This is an idea I have:
Pigs: Infantry: This one should be the one with the most variety of weapons and can be upgraded more than the other ones. It can have the most variety of armour as well and can level up quickest. These can use these commands:
A. Stand Ground: It will not move but will defend itself and counter attacks.
B. Retreat: Will completely run away from any hostile enemy.
C. Attack: Full on assaults the enemy
D. Train: Does the same as attack, but if low on health it retreats.
Maybe the higher the level the more commands it can use. Like you might need Lv10 for Train and Lv15 for Stand Ground
Mount: Faster than the average pig and can be armoured with a lot of variety. Maybe even as much as the Infantry. It will have the best defence as well, other than the Hero Pig of course. It can level minimal times. These are the commands it can use:
A. Sprint: Doubles the average speed for a short period of time, but needs to be recharged after use.
B. Battle: Behaves like a good mount and you can easily control it's movements.
C. Ram: Headbutts nearby enemies regardless of the rider's actions.
D. Stay: Stays in it's spot regardless at what's attacking it.
They have a max level which is 10, but they level up slowly. Level 3 they can use Sprint and Lv7 they can use Ram.
Archer Normal Speed, but REALLY lame melee attack, well, if it has any! But it can use bows skillfully and well level up normally. They can go to the max level of 50 and can aim better and shoot faster at higher levels. It can use these commands:
A. Defend Area: Will not move, but will defend it's position by shooting enemies that come in range.
B. Fire: Looks for a target by wandering around it's area. It has 3 sub-commands:
i.Closest: Focus mainly on the closest enemies in it's range
ii.Weakest: Hunts down the weakest enemies in it's range
iii.Vicous: Hunts down the strongest enemies in it's range
C. Stay: Does nothing. But if attacked it may headbutt the enemy
D.Retreat: Runs away from all hostile mobs.
It can use Defend Area at Lv 14.
That's all I really have for NOW, thanks for reading!
I love creepers. It turns out that, I am part of the Secret Agent Creeper Agency. Creepers need to be understood more. Everyone's so mean. I mean they are so cute! I mean they give the most exciting hugs of all animals!
This is epic! I love the different themes for each island! I like the secret treasures and stuff like this. This is amazing. As good as Survival Island in my opinion! Lots of for you!
Thanks for the link fix! By the way if your going to create variations why don't you make a Brick Zombie/Pig? And maybe it'll have resistance against creeper explosions? You could add that in with the Obsidian Spiders as well. Just an idea. :smile.gif:
First before I go on, I have to congratulate you. This is a brilliant mod and it's great your doing a request! The textures are great and when I first downloaded it I thought it was going to be too overpowered, but you've managed to balance the spawn rates and drops! Well done! Keep up the good work! Now the bad bit. :sad.gif:

Where? Is it "You Are the Creeper?"? Because it doesn't really have eggs... But thanks for enlightening! I'll search it up and thanks for the support!

Nice! Thanks for the comment! And the banner is a bit crowded :biggrin.gif:
