Once Notch gets bows & arrows server side (and mobs working, so I won't have to pester mods+ for supplies ) I have an idea for a big server get together for some good ol' fashioned CTF. Grab the other teams obsidian flag and bring it back to your base. Each player gets a bow and X arrows to start, with an otherwise empty inventory. (X is to be determined)
Any thoughts?
I was thinking somthing along the lines of a huge arena with a couple mini arenas for different terains and each of the terains would be different (say maby one being a hilly arena, anouther being flat but with trees, i could go on and on :) ) It would kinda be like my spleef arena i made but never finished :P
I think for practical purposes a CTF arena should not be too large, so that people aren't constantly going past each other. There should be at least one choke point, too.
Man, these are some great ideas. My initial plan was to drop two tiny bases out in the wilderness, equip 'em with supplies and let players build onto the bases, build wooden trenches to advance, etc. We could try everything to see what works (it's not like we're gonna run out of space or anything).
You know that all these ideas are good ones. Now we need the co-operation to combine them to make the most epic, variable CTF arena in all of minecraft history. But we need lots...and I mean LOTS or people to help us out on this one project. And we need comemeration for all of them somwhere...
like I said...these are all good ideas...we need to find a way to combine them all...maby like different part of the cource or maby rules than restrict stuff when in the arena...etc...
