    posted a message on Why a Minecraft Sequel Is Needed

    While I agree Minecraft needs to be improved, you're going with in the wrong direction. Minecraft is a sandbox game, designed to be modded to meet how you want it. The problem with Minecraft is that theres really only 2 ways of playing it: survival or build stuff.


    If Minecraft were to had to have a sequel, it'd need to act more like a game engine. Like Garry's mod, except easier to edit and create new gamemodes, and edit your world. Minecraft, in its original form, is to be bent to your will. Think about it: simple building to change your surroundings, use texture packs and model packs to change the atmosphere, and of course you install mods to change your experience. It would need to be high customisable, and easy to mod and change so it could fit just about any genre possible, as well as have the tools to allow people to easily change and customise their world. This is a true Minecraft sequel imo; the makings of an game engine.


    Unfortunately, because of this, Minecraft can never have a sequel. To me, Minecraft is a borderline between conventional games and an engine. If it were to get even more able to be customisable then all you'd have is a game engine. And even that would get boring after a while...

    You know, if they want to make the mobs themselves a lot more interesting, they should change the behaviour or physical traits of some individuals in a given mob. For example, say most creepers try sneaking up on you (I know, they already do that), but one creeper might do a short sprint to close in, while another might have a jump boost and try to jump on top of the player, and another might explode even if they die. What I'm saying is that this might make combat a bit interesting by making the mobs a little less predictable.


    Idk, I just think the mobs are just too black and white, and adding a few behaviour/physical changes to some would at least help make them less predictable. A zombie and creeper will charge, a skeleton will try to snipe you, enderman will try to teleport behind you, etc. Its all too predictable...

    posted a message on Upcoming HALOCRAFT Sever
    I have a better idea for a server. How about a shipyard like in Halo Reach? The different module stations can be for different parts of the server: Anchor 9 is spawn, one of the frigate construction yards could be for the gamemodes, a docked frigate/pelican can tp you to the survival area, etc.

    Good to see that your not KIA. Anyway, I have a bug with your mod. If I make a world with MC that has halocraft installed, I can access it again. But if I make a world on 1.6.2 without the mod installed, it'll be stuck on the 'building terrain' screen :(

    Can't wait for the multiplayer release :D

    While I love the biomes so far, they need to add better oceans. They are just big holes filled with water. Theres really no use for them anymore. They should add stuff like coral reefs, undersea shipwrecks and ruins and more... life. Squids aren't the only things out in the ocean. Its so boring.

    posted a message on |The Realistic Halo Mod |

    Introduction

    Ever wanted to play a mod that puts YOUR ideas first? Maybe even help them create the mod? Well, my friends, you've just got lucky. The Realistic Halo Mod will be using your ideas to create an all-round AMAZING halo mod.

    338fae originally worked on this mod, but now he can't work on it. So he's given me and the team permission to complete it. Also, MOaHerder gave our main coder, Marko5049, to continue the Halo: Battlefield mod and to use his source pack.


    The Team
    Coders
    Marko5049 - [Main Coder]
    Sev40

    Modeller
    Chazzalinko - [Main Modeller]

    Builders
    Sev40 - [Main builder]
    Wildblood779

    Texturers
    Vash0110 - [Maybe]
    Wildblood779
    LEMODE - [Main coder]




    What we have planned
    Quote from Completion Key »

    Green = Completed. No more work to do on this
    Gold = Texturing and/or Modelling complete
    Blue = Being modelled or textured

    Mobs
    • Covenant Elites - Modelled and Textured Major and 'naked' template elite.
    • Covenant Engineers - Still deciding what these guys should do.
    • Covenant Hunters - Modelled, but really needs to be textured
    • Covenant Grunts - No Halo Mod is complete without grunts
    • Flood Infection Form - These things have now followed you into minecraft.
    • Flood 'Human' Combat Form - Modelled but not textured
    • Flood Carrier Form - Same as above. Nothing special
    • Promethean Watcher - Couldn't resist. Don't know what these things can do that is possible...
    • Promethean Crawlers - Modelled and textured the 'Prime' form. Pretty good too!
    Blocks
    • Covenant Holographic pedestal
    • Covenant Plasma Coil - Modelled but not textured
    • Plasma Block - Textures Completed.
    • Plasma Ore - Texture completed as well.
    • UNSC Ammo Crate

    Weapons and Armour
    • Gravity Hammer - Textured
    • Energy Sword - Textured
    Vehicles
    • Mantis - Textured but not coded. Might work in Flans Mods...
    Structures
