Arcadia Gameplay
"What makes Arcadia awesome?"
Awesome community, awesome servers.
Arcadia Minecraft was started in October 2011 by a few friends who met on other Minecraft Servers. Many of our users enjoy different aspects of Minecraft, as well as have a variety of needs and wants. We aim to satiate our member's needs by having a variety of maps available to play on.
When you join Arcadia, you are spawned on the main hub, and need to go to a server to play on from there. Chat is shared between all the servers, so you can still talk to everyone while you're playing. To go back to the hub from any server type /hub.

Survival:
We use a few tweaks to aid in providing the perfect experience for our players. Some of them are listed below:
- Auto-locking chests.
- Warp points to visit different towns.
- Anti-griefing/grief prevention tools.
Guest Survival (Includes Nether and End!):
To prevent spammers and briefers, before applying guests will be unable to break blocks and aggro mobs in the /survival world. However, guests can type "/warp guests" and play survival before applying. The guest world shares a inventory with the main survival world, so if/when you apply you can just move your stuff over instead of starting over from scratch again!
Resource Maps (Overworld, Nether and End!) (Shared inventory, etc with Survival):
These are the maps you should be going on when you need a boatload of blocks. We would like our Survival map to stay beautiful, and pillaging the resource maps (which reset when they are uber looted) instead of the map your projects are on is a great way to do that! Type "/warp +Rsrc" to get to the Resource Overworld. This terrain is generated using the 1.7.4 world generation, so you can harvest all the fancy new blocks to your heart's content! You need to be a Builder rank or above to use the resource map.
Vanilla:
The vanilla server is, well, purely vanilla. Or, as close as possible without allowing for griefing and stealing. Featuring only minor grief-protection plugins, this server does away with the luxuries of /home and /warp, dumping the player into a hard mode environment. Old school? Enjoy Minecraft without the fluff and puff? This is the server for you.
Creative (Flat, No Terrain) (New Map Soon!):
A plot based flat creative map for people to experiment with patters, shapes, redstone, or other aspects of their builds. The creative world also often hosts parties, build contests, and other fun events! The 16x16 plots are reserved for Event use, and users are required to ask a Staff Member before building on a 256x256 plot to ensure that someone who is actually going to use the space will be able to.
The Creative maps are restricted to B+ users and above. Once you gain access you may build on any empty plot, and even have more than one plot (as long as you use them)! All builds must stay inside the plot borders.
To claim your plot place a sign with your IGN on it on the front side of the left corner half step (on the border of the plot).
Creative (Terrain, beautiful terrain!) (Coming Soon!):
Finally a creative map for the amazing artists that simply want to paint a canvas, but either lack the work ethic for Survival, or enjoy a more direct approach to building. Building on this map is restrictd to hand-picked players who have shown exemplary building prowess either on the Creative or Survival map.
Creative (Redstone Only) (Coming Soon!):
This almost-ready lab is perfect for you tinker tots that need a special place to experiment with redstone. This and the new flat creative map share the same layout. What differs in the redstone map is the colors, and availability (upon permission) of Tri-Level plots. As with the soon-to-be flat creative map, 16x16 plots are reserved, but here they'll be used for redstone examples, to show our more novice players how to make some nifty machines. If you would like to add to the example gallery let a Staff Member know, and label your project in the front left corner with a sign.
Games (WIP but functional!):
Our "/games" server will be host to all manner of mini games! At the moment we have Survival Games, Spleef, and Bow Spleef up and running, among other goodies. We aim to expand our selection of mini games in the future, and we even accept adventure/mini game maps made by other players! If you have a suggestion, post it on our forums. Note that, unlike the Survival and Creative worlds, anyone can log on and play.
Extremely Hard Mode: (EHM)
Designed to be like an extra-challenging Ultra Hard Core world, our new EHM world features numerous changes that… well, make it extra hard.PvP and Griefing is allowed, and the map will be reset every four months to ensure difficulty is always high and everything’s more or less fair for anyone who wants to join. Think of it like an extra-hard factions world that shouldn’t have any problems with X-ray or overpowered factions.

Building aesthetics.The community of Arcadia Minecraft as a whole is serious about filling their amazing structures with real originality and pure creativity. Only a few Minecrafters are at a genius level of building, but we all like to build things that look neat. If you're not great at constructing good-looking buildings, other players and Staff are readily available to help if you have an idea but don't quite know exactly how to implement it.
