Server software still seems to be stuck at 1.06 as far as I can tell. Trying to work out wtf is going on.
Whats people thoughts on game?
Had a good night starting off new characters with some other players, shame an admin then came on with an new character and good gear, summoned the goblin army and then told us all to "stop whining and have fun" when I told him it was for new characters only.
This wasn't me but again if the new character rule has been followed even if the person has been shifting gear the character is still new!.So much for the new characters rule... someone has been shifting gear from other characters on and has built himself a nice golden house and I'm pretty sure is working on a hellevator. You've got SP mode to do that.
Seeing as I lost all my gear on mediumcore (very annoying), I got sick of that and added items to my new character from my offline storage. Is that so bad? It isn't like I am going to go all out and take any items, ore or anything else from the server? Just building a house and mining to hell - I can do that with starter items if need be.
Build a small stone house, with a bit of help, thanks guys.
Also cheers for the help with armor too evilsod.
Starting to like the game more now. Still even with a silver pickaxe i die from things when they gang up on me 1 small black blob and 2 skeletons were raping me. One of em put a torch out too, grr.
This tbh? Mine IS a new character. The thing is, IN NO WAY will I interfere with any other character on the server. I am not there to be an arse, just want a little house and a small mineshaft

Neil and Captain, its my understanding its new characters starting from scratch (fresh build with nothing from past games) so everyone is starting with just the basics that ur given when entering the server with a fresh character. Least thats how i read it.
I can understand why a Goblin Army would be annoying for new characters, but what is to stop someone getting the items necessary to start a Goblin Army (easily done by the end of the day)? It would still annoy a newer character anyway. I mean, it happened to me the first time I played on the server - my OcUK friends all came over to protect me. I didn't cry about it and call foul!
Neil if you wanted to test it out why didn't you do it in your OWN world. And it wasn't one person, you annoyed everyone playing at the time.
Can't you just find all the gear on the OcUK server rather than getting it from a SP world?
Surely the randomness is the fun of it..? Building and exploring is the best bit, so as soon as you "level up" you are just making a part of the game pointless. I'm aiming to take it pretty slowly anyway, I think it'll be more fun that way.
My thought of what the new 1.0.6 world would be like is:
Everyone starts from scratch, slowly get better together... we go adventuring and hug and kiss etc etc big happy family. I know that's unrealistic because people will want to progress far quicker than other, but it's still a shame.
Really? In a few hours play you'd found a mask that has a 1.x chance of dropping from corrupted bunnies? Not to mention all your other gear.
Especially as I had been on the server since soon after it launched and you had barely been on.
*clap* *clap*
You're right there is no way to enforce it I suppose. I don't think it needs enforcing either. I just HOPE that people don't "spoil the magic" by bringing in higher level items which normally take a while to find out about
Like I said in previous post, keeping it noob-friendly is more fun I think, at least for now.
