Minecraft Forums

So basically I wanted to start a Let's Play with a few of my friends. But as you should know, there is a freaking ton of them and it is extremely hard to get noticed with Minecraft LP's. So I thought of this idea, and I want some feedback for this . The idea is this, each day, excluding Saturday and Sunday, I would upload a video on my Youtube channel, (TheDailyMinecraftFix) where I would have each day being something different, the idea is this.

-Modding Mondays.

This is where one of us in the team finds a mod and shows you how to install it on both Mac and PC. (If it is a smaller mod we could do several at a time)

-Tuesday Reviews.

This is where the guys in the team work in out mod arena on our server and review the mod that we taught you how to install the day before. (If it is a smaller mod we could do several at a time)

-Wednesday Redstone.

This is where the guys on the team shows the redstone contraption that we either found, (we would ALWAYS put a link in the description to the actual video) or made. The idea of this is for you guys who watch our videos be able to know that if you come to our channel then you will have all the redstone ideas you will need as it is quite hard to find decent redstone ideas and they are all scattered across different Minecraft channels.

-Thursday Tutorials.

This is where the guys from TDMF show the watchers how to make the redstone contraption from the previous day.

-Friday Events.

This is where the guys from TDMF invite guests and do challenges such as adventure maps, capture the record, etc.

So guys now could you please do the poll and tell me if you would watch this as it would help to know if we are wasting our time making these videos.

Subscribe now to this channel (http://www.youtube.com/user/TheDailyMinecraftFix) and we will have the first video up in 1-2 weeks.

BTW we are Australian, you can't go past the accent. Please give us support and if you don't mind, spread the word of this channel so we can continue doing this for the community.

You like touching things huh?

You're hilARious, it was obviously a typo..

Lay off the man, he is quite a nice fellow, just responding to a topic, no need to be so rude.

Do not craft diamond armour as it is to hard to get, and it's a massive punch in the face if you die with it. Use iron or lower instead.

Making a moat water/lava around you house can provide a easy way to get rid of creepers/mobs camping outside your house.
This moat could lead to a mob farm or just to a trapping point. (Easy to make too)(kills the endermen)

Armour is really not needed in 1.0. Due to new potions such as regeneration, you can stay alive for great amounts of time without have to run away or without added protection.

Making a chicken farm is simple in 1.0. First find some eggs, make a place for the farm, throw all the eggs (In the farm) until you have a decent amount of chickens, then wait for the chickens to lay eggs, then repeat. (Good source of food without having to chase animals all day or waiting for wheat to grow.)

Always know your way back to your base! Last thing you need is to get lost and then forced to start over again.

Spider proof your house by adding overhangs at the top of the walls. (outside)

If you have been collecting stacks full of coal, consider making a 10-100+ radius filled with torches, you wont have to worry about mobs and you can locate your house better.

Always have sound on. (sound and music are different things) ( You can hear mobs)

When taking on a mob spawner, rush in and place a torch then retreat. Slowly grinding the mobs is a waste of time.

If you have a fire resistance potion, run around with a flint and iron and place fire trails everywhere. (Simple mob kills) (No skill or aiming req)

Providing a mob trap which does not kill the mobs automaticly can be easy exp for you!

For the first night trees are good bases. (Spider proofed) (Out of sight from skeleton fire) (Free!) (Take a little out of the tree for some free wood inside your base =D)(Treehouses are totally cool)

Placing a pressure plate on the inside (Not outside) of your house door can make a easy door accessing method. Whilst running in from the outside (Creepers are chasing you), all you have to do is click to open the door, then you can run in (The plate will automaticly close the door) (Also the same thing while going outside)

Remember or record your base/houses cords. Just in case if you get lost....

Tnt is quite usless, unless you want to make a epic run in entrance when in a cave.

Snowballs can push away mobs. (This can be useful)

Make a base in the nether to avoid losing items whilst potion hunting.

You can die if you cant be hit. (Sprinting helps while get threw waves of mobs)

Posion potions are not good for drinking. (Pro tip!)

Use your experience levels on swords. (Offence before defence works)

Avoid snow biomes as the snowfall can generate lag and you get lost a lot. (Everything looks the same) (All your water is frozen)

You don't need to charge up your bow to fire.

Jump attack for critical hits!

Easy is like normal, but is easy.

Turn the brightness level up in caves, but don't use it 24/7. ("Why" you may ask) Well if you always have your brightness level up constantly, it may fool you into thinking a room/place is light but in fact it may still be dark and still may be spawning mobs!. (Rewording needed)

Peaceful is not a crime.

Don't play while tired.

Spiders like to jump and attack, so while fighting one try to aim just above its body and rather than looking down onto the spider try moving the screen view so you are looking partly at the sky. (Does that make sense??) ^

um...
Wow a wall of text, I really need to get a life.....

Hope you consider some of my tips in your guide. Keep the good work up! =)

You can just place the tips in your favoured area of the topic..
