Hello guys! Today I will be suggesting a new game mode called Build To Survive.
In this game mode, you will spawn in a flat world with a limited amount of space. You are given 9 stacks (9 x 64) of wooden planks to build a house/fortress/hideout, then when you're done, you click a [START] button which immediately makes it night so monsters will attack.
BUT! You CANNOT mine, kill mobs, or try to escape the limited amount of space you are given. Doing these actions will end the mode.
You CAN craft things out of wooden planks (Workbench, stairs, fences, sticks, etc.) weapons are allowed, too! But you CANNOT build any other tools (Shovels, Hoes, Pickaxes, Axes)
The difficulty will be set to hard, and you can't fly.
_____________________________________________________________________________________
When you click the [START] button, there will be a timer to keep track of how long you've been alive in that session. If you die, then the world will be reset to it's original seed.
_____________________________________________________________________________________
I think this game mode would go GREAT with the Survival, Creative, Adventure, Hardcore, and CTF modes!

Please reply if you have any questions, comments, or concerns. Thanks for reading my thread!
I totally get this.
They should also add a Teamwork AI for mobs also new mechanics.. For Example, Creeper blowing up doors so zombies can get in. Skeletons shooting windows so they would break in.
Here are some ideas i would like to add for Build to Survive
Note that these mechanic only work in BtS Gamemode.
Teamwork AI
Every Mob should be corporating with each other. Creepers and Skeletons may hurt each other sometimes, but they should work together aswell! Here are some Examples. The Distraction AI
Zombies will distract a person to escape from them. Then a skeleton critical hitted him with an arrow, or a Creeper blew up behind the person! The Destruction AI
Zombies may break doors. But that's not enough. A CREEPER should blow up the door, allowing a bunch of mobs to come in. The Cannon AI Indestructable front door? Why don't they have a creeper to LAUNCH THEM INTO YOUR CHIMNEY? The Roadblock AI A Zombie chasing you? That's easy. Just Escape. BUT if you built a hallway. That's a bad idea. A Creeper will blow up your wall and roadblocks your way. The Slingshot AI I know what you're shinking, but nope. This AI will make Skeleton to shoot at your window and break it. Good thing to always make 1 block window.
Maybe instead of only mobs, you could have different disasters to keep you interested. You would have ten minutes to build (anything but bedrock) in creative mode and when the time is up, the disaster comes.
Ideas:
Poison (better have milk!)
Volcano
Mob apocolypse (like you said)
Ghast Attack!
Boss mobs!
Tornado
TNT rain!
Lava flood
Flood
Fallout (Some TNT drops in center of map, then it rains acid and a toxic gas comes)
Surprise! (Creeper spawns behind you)
Overheat (anything in direct sunlight catches fire, and any metal touching fire or lava melts and turns to fire, water in sunlight becomes lava, and all flammable materials outside or near fire instantly burn.)
Exploding ocelots!
Attack of the clones (like zombies, but hold axes and look like you (and a friend's?) skin.)
Bombing!
Zombie seige!
Acid rain (kills you on contact)
Creepers!
Revolt (Npc's come with bows and swords, you get one instantly to fight)
Falling anvils!
Creepthulthu (giant creeper with plenty creepers inside it)
Also, you should be able to buy things like weapons, armor, a pre-built house, milk, the right to use obsidian, and food
at a "shop"
I think you should DEFINETLY spawn in creative (no flying though) so you can build your shelter.

I have too slow an internet connection to be a lurk. If I wate time opening the page, I might as well reply.
Yes. Yes I do.
Really tall tower that expands to the sides at the top, because spiders would get stuck on the expanded part. Also if it was tall enough the mobs wouldn't be able to see whoever was up there.
Or a really tall tower with a small room at the top with no doors, no windows, full walls, and a roof so mobs can't get in.
I'm not really understanding this. So you just enclose yourself with what you can make with the wooden planks, then start this timer... Then what? Do you just stand in your house blankly staring at the timer?
I don't see the point in this suggestion, you could just 1x1 tower up and stay there. Also, why only wooden planks? It would be better if the player got all the items (except bedrock, obsidian and other blast resitant or overpowered blocks) so that he can build traps and at least make something useful.
@Wavejones Awesome idea! That would be nice having mobs team up on you
@PeopleWhoSaidYouShouldKillMobs I support that! Anyone else who reads this should keep in mind that you CAN kill mobs!@Wavejones You can make a more detailed thread, but give 80% credit to me

"You could just make a floating cube that has no doors!"
What would be the point of that? It's supposed to be a fun challenge, it's not like you get anything from it.
