A minecraft rapture would be the definition of awesomeness. When notch makes real oceans, it will take about 13.6 hours until at least one Minecraft Rapture map is ready for download.
Anyway, damn nice work! Downloading right nao.
yeah i know :tongue.gif:, I know when i first wanted to start this map I saw a video on youtube with a huge Rapture model.
Also thanks for the download, tell me what you think of it :smile.gif:
Ok Criss, great start. The map is already grand as it is and it's fun to mess around in. I'm already editing rooms of buildings and redecorating floors. It's a great map. That being said, here is some Criticism;
First off, have connecting buildings. I particularly DESPISE that Subway System. I'd much rather walk through Glass tunnels and the like. Speaking of which, those are always fun when you connect them from high points on Skyscrapers. Also I feel like this city has little to no entertainment complexes. Throw in a Shopping Center or a Bar. Even having large empty decorative ballrooms would be nice. So pretty much, More Skyscrapers and more Glass Tunnels. And also give the place a bit more of an emptiness so we can feel like we are allowed to take over the map and make it in our own image.
Hope to see updates soon!

Thanks for the feedback :smile.gif:
First off, I totally agree with you about the subways, I original wanted lots of glass hallways everywhere but I soon ran out of space to put them, A subway was the only thing i thought of. But I do agree with you and in the next map update I will definitely add more glass hallways connecting to buildings.
also about entertainment complexes, I really agree with you and am already working on a restaurant/bar that is connected to a new skyscraper that is being built.
Thanks for the feedback, it helps to build the city bigger and better.
Well hey,thanks for being active about this project. I would love to help in anyway possible.
A few more ideas (just spitballin' here),
A Moon Pool that is used for fishing and is made to look like traditional docks.
A Justice Building of some sort (really just government buildings in general)
An abandoned wing that has been left to rot, with water running in (I noticed this was done with an Apartment and I liked it :3)
General Clean up of the map. The Tower of Glass at the corner of the "Ocean" and several bits of floating glass. Also there was alot of dirt and ores on the sides of the subway. I tried my best to clean it out with some Stone replacement, but it was too large.
Expansion of the width of subway. I actually had my subway set up to where people could walk along next to the track.
A Poor District, perhaps related to the Abandoned Wing
A design of some sort in the plaza building near the entrance/bateman/residential/hospital buildings. Maybe some insignia of this fictional city?
And once more I can not stress the idea of keeping most of this stuff open for the downloaders to mess with and change. For instance, I took the 2nd floor of Bateman and turned it into a Public Library. If you leave entire buildings open for players to mess with I can promise you that you'll recieve good feedback, especially if you market as a "Fill in the Blanks" map.
Anyways thanks again for listening and I want to help in anyway I can!

Hey Im glad you are interested in this map :smile.gif:
about your ideas.. I love them :tongue.gif: and im for sure going to add some most in my next map update :smile.gif:
Ok... where do i start :tongue.gif:
I am currently adding some more tower type buildings (they have no purpose yet, but as you said i will probably leave them for downloaders to mess with) Currently I have added 2 buildings with no purpose, and have the base and blueprints for another.
also I have loved the idea for an abandoned/falling apart area. It has been in the back of my mind to add that and im sure i will soon!
also the subway... I do love the idea of widening it for people to walk on. but i hoping it will not be the only way to get around, what i mean is I am adding a lot more glass walkways to different buildings so the subway will not be necessary to get around.
also I have removed the random floating pieces of glass, and the glass tower in the "ocean"
Thanks for all your feedback, it really helps :smile.gif: and if you are interested in helping Im 100% ok with that, so far your suggestions have really helped!

EDIT: also I like the poor district idea, I am hoping to add more residential areas and will add a poor district to it :smile.gif:, also I am going to add a wealthy district too.
