Diamond is already high enough in the durability extreme range. Tungsten would be great for special effects like taking only half damage from fire and lava.
Hate to burst your bubble but titanium is extremely difficult to process, even with todays technology.
Are you telling me the idea wont work because its unrealistic? its funny because I just got chased by a four-legged green exploding night rapist and a flying jellyfish that spits fire....
It's realistic when it comes to items. A gold pickaxe is soft and not much better than wood. an example of notch knowing about the physics of these objects. He wouldn't put titanium in because it is too complicated to put into a game like minecraft.
Well he did make obsidian that when made into a certain shape and lit on fire it will create a magic portal to a flaming hell hole.
Hi. I like this idea for the most part. Just have to say, tho. Tungsten on it's own has some great unique properties, mainly it has the highest thermal melting point of any metal. This property could be used for interesting things, ranging from light (lanterns??) as we use in real life incandescent bulbs to some unique anti lava function - or possibly to create a special furnace?
However, Tungsten isn't actually that strong of a material on it's own. It becomes strong when you add some carbon, then you have Tungsten Carbide which is among the strongest metals known to man. We use it where I work for hardfacing on wear parts which is pretty common, and it's also commonly used in machine shops to cut steel. But regular Tungsten? No.
So, perhaps you would have to first make a furnace out of tungsten which could have 2 smelt slots, which you then need to put a tungsten ore + coal/charcoal/coal brick something like that to make tungsten carbide, and then anything made from that would be uber strong.
Thing is, we already have obsidian for indestructible blocks, and diamond is the hardest material in the world. I would think, replacing diamond with tungsten carbide would be more logical as you can't make a pick axe out of diamond irl. But since "real life" stuff doesn't matter, we may as well leave things the way they are. So what niche would the tungsten fill? Perhaps a tungsten bucket would be able to carry a lava source? Perhaps a tungsten carbide + diamond sword/axe/pick etc would literally be indestructible? Or at least WAY more than just diamond (afterall even diamond is brittle).

I always thought the gold thing was a joke about how golden stuff is always protrayed as being the best.
Also 2 ideas for adding to the Nether:
Creeper Crawlers: the bang of a creeper with the dexterity of a spider! (and they give more sulfur per kill too)
Arroworms: they attach themselves to the ceiling and if anything walks under them they shoot it. ( if you kill it it drops an item that when used in a dispenser recipe allows dispensers to be built facing down)
Hmm... unique concepts. However, I think they're just a bit half-baked. I definitely agree that there needs to be more than two mobs in the Nether.
Creepers would definitely tie in the similarity between the Nether and the Overworld, however I don't think they should have to crawl like spiders. I don't know why, but the idea just sort of... hm... takes away from the purpose of creepers in the other world. It isn't uniform. Maybe regular creepers only.
I Almost like the concept of Arroworms. I just feel like something's missing or is a tad ascue from perfection. I like the dispenser being upsidedown and all... would be most useful when building walls for protection, -could put them in dark crevices. But the Arroworm, what does it look like? Also, don't worms burrow in the earth? I think they would be better to burrow in the ground, so in a sense they... "mine."
I was thinking of Creeper Crawlers as a "dangerous hunt" for sulfur, giving both higher challenge and higher reward. But then I realized Ghasts blow stuff up anyways, so I think I need something more skilled...
As for the Arroworms, I was thinking that they would be a dangerous trap around lightstone (as that hangs on ceilings too!) that has a wide firing arc. I called them worms because that is what they would look like hanging down from the ceiling. And I also just remembered that there is a monster in Half Life that hangs from the ceiling, that looks very similar to what I was thinking.

I once saw a chicken push a creeper off of a cliff. I never looked at chickens the same way ever again. That is of course until I needed feathers.

Just some thoughts :biggrin.gif:
Wow... well thankyou for your insight. I really think you're on to something with the Tungsten Carbide. I also like the Tungsten furnace, and utilizing that to create the Tungsten Carbide with the two slots, as you were saying. I might read into the process of how they make Tungsten Carbide, maybe that will help give me some ideas. I think that maybe the only way to make Tungsten Carbide should be with the Tungsten furnace... so first you have to find tungsten, smelt it, then make a furnace, find more tungsten, then smelt it with the coal and then it would give you the Tungsten Carbide. Am I missing any steps?
Certainly food for thought. I like it. Thanks for the advice. *takes notepad out and jots down points.
Except for Titanium/Tungsten staying there forever, this is a very good idea, especially the teleporter. I do have one suggestion: Make the fluorescent mushrooms change from one color to another every few Minecraft days, and green indicates health while purple indicates poison. People who don't read this thread will eat the wrong mushroom and die. Also, check my Nether Wildlife Fund in my signature.

LOL~!!! I should have said that. That was my general conclusion! You're funny man... and thanks for the humor. With everyone being as critical as they are, its good to hear a joke every once in a while.

I still like the idea of indistructibles. However, you have a point with the mushroom's color in effect to their poison levels... but how do you make glowing mushroom soup if you can't use them both to make it, instead use two of the same kind, only? Two purple or two green... AH! OR BOTH, BUT IT ONLY HEALS HALF THE HEARTS!!!
Green should be rarer than purple.
I'm not sure about the mushrooms changing color, but it is an interesting concept.
I think I will add this soon. Good thoughts. Also, I'm checking out the link!
I'm all up for the idea of the new mushrooms and Titanium
With the only exception of Titanium not being able to be made into weapons/armor, only tools. Impenetrable, un-degrading weapons and armor just sounds OP to me, no matter how difficult they are to produce.
Well, I like the ideas in here, but I think that the Charoite should only be mineable with a tungsten pick. Also, tungsten should be made into tungsten ore, after being smelted 3 ore to 1 bucket of lava, to keep these materials hard to get and very valuable.

Gold is MEANT to be useless.
Wrong. It's meant for me to look like a pimp.

The changing color would only be for raw mushrooms, so it wouldn't affect soup, and you would only get like 2.5 hearts for eating a raw green and get poisoned for a while if you eat a raw violet.
Indestructable items would be a major issue in SMP. It would cause so much griefing. Just think about it.. You've built a lovely mansion, made of logs and stone and big glowstone chandeliers.. and then someone runs in to your house, and with 5 blocks, bam, has made an indestructable penis in the middle of the room.
As for the rest, I think the mushrooms would be good for decoration, maybe also if you could craft them into a dye and then mix with others to produce a whole range of neon blocks.
I feel diamond is plenty fast enough at mining, only obsidian puts up some resistance to it. Best left alone. Also, despite however rare you might make Tungtanium, once you have three parts you can make an indestructable pickaxe that mines as fast as diamond and (considering the nether at level 5ish is almost entirely netherrack, even elsewhere it's in massive mountains) you'd just fly through until you find more and more. No pigmen or ghasts could stop you!
But fireproof or heatproof armour would be nice, at the same durability as iron but also increasing fall damage as a drawback, for balancing. I can't imagine anyone walking around in a full metal suit of armour and getting less hurt from falling off a cliff.
Portals connected to each other would render the fast travel abilities of the nether obselete, so people would have less reason to visit.
Well... I don't think the portals give any less reason to visiting the Nether.
For one, I hardly use the Nether for traveling myself, and I still go there all the time. I need lightstone and bloodstone and its fun to go there, plainly said.
Two: I doubt the people who do use the Nether for fast traveling would have issues with my portal concept... because before you can use the mini portals that I've designed, you'd have to place them in the position you want to teleport to. Therefore, it might be even better to utilize both types of portals. First you'd have to get to the position you want my portals in a far off place to be in the Overworld... and therefore have MORE of a reason to use the Nether Portals.
Three: You are forgetting that the Minecraft blocks and resources I have suggested are extremely rare to find. If you wanted to use some mini portals, it would help you for getting to individual places... but not as convenient for going long distances through the Nether.
As for your comment on the Tungsten, I've come to an interesting concept... what if the Tungsten was indistructible, but only as strong as stone tools, (-except for collecting rare minerals. That way, it would leave some flaw to the tool and make it harder and thus more entertaining for the players?
I'm glad you like the mushrooms. I like them too. That concept just kinda hit me in the head one day like a block of cobblestone. Neat concept for neon cloth!
The changing color would only be for raw mushrooms, so it wouldn't affect soup, and you would only get like 2.5 hearts for eating a raw green and get poisoned for a while if you eat a raw violet.
But if you use the right button to eat the mushrooms, what button would you use to plant them? With the classic mushrooms you would use the right click to place them on the ground. (PLANTING) That's the problem I see with your concept.
Also, My idea was that Green Mushrooms would heal you completely, kinda like golden apples... (but that's in soup form only, because with the traditional mushrooms you couldn't eat them raw. I wanted to keep this design uniform with the gameplay that has already been thought through.) And because they heal your full life, they're so rare... like apples. Purple Mushrooms, on the other hand, would decorate well, like the green, and are easy to find, but they bring down your health slowly by the half hearts for about a minute's worth of time, until you die. If you don't have food with you then you're in big trouble.
Because you can only eat it in soup form, (like Overworld mushrooms,) two green would heal your life completely. Two purple would poison you. One of each would heal only five hearts...

My thougts about the portals is that they should only work in the Nether, and that they should be random. It's more fun that way. lol.
It is fun, random. It should be kept for the nether. I think both ways would be good and wouldn't get old. Minecraft never gets old. Thanks a whole bunch for your opinion, it helps me to think twice about my concepts.
I like how you say Titanium is grief proof. I don't think you thought it through...
Griefer: hacking 64 Titanium in all inventory spots, let's go see, what servers are online?
BAD BAD BAD BAD. =P
Plus, the idea of a permanent block besides bedrock is just plain a bad idea. My mouse sometimes glitches up. Most of the time it's harmless. With this block, It could ruin everything.
You could make a block that requires some special object to mine. Like, make a use for gold pickaxes. Or maybe it must be set on fire to be mined (Since the ore is IN nettherack, when in it's ore form it could logically burn forever without too much of a game unbalance.)
Or you could make it so specific things DON'T mine i. Make it immune to TNT (Not like Obsidian with super-high durability. With enough TNT you could break it. Just make it so that TNT doesn't even affect it. And maybe creepers too. But you could mine it with a normal iron/diamond/stone/whatever you pick(hehe) pickaxe.
Just make it so that you CAN remove it if it is an unsightly blemish to your perfect mine-world.
I think that crafting portals has a good idea, but being able to place the portals where from wherever, and to carry them in a perfect form to wherever, from any portal to any portal, it seems like a ruinous game mechanic. Maybe you could craft the portal talismans, and if you place the talisman in/on a portal that already exists (Place on the purple blocks?), you can name it, and connect it to other named portals in different worlds.No Nether-Nether or Overworld-Overworld portals, even if you ignore anything else in the paragraph, those are my main issue with the crafted portals. (If an Aether is added, should only Nether portals be affected, because GreyAcumen has said he specifically doesn't want any way from the Nether to the Aether?). To rename/change portals, you need another talisman, making it so you don't just keep changing portals from one to another. You could make it so that it occurs in veins of only 2(maybe 3), and keep it very rare. That way, if you find it, it gives you one pair of portals to link, plus maybe an extra.
I don't know, just tell me if you disregard any of my ideas, as you probably will. They just seem slightly more balanced to me.

I also love your mushroom idea.
Why would portals be a ruinous game mechanic? You can only use them in the Overworld. You can't jump from the Nether to the Overword with these portals... because they don't work in the Nether. That's what Nether portals are for.
And yes... the Charoite veins are very rare. Look at my example images on the first page. There are only two blocks there. Like I said, I have to update the front page... go by the image not the words, for now.
You are right about the Tungsten/Titanium Block. I have to change it... or at least re-think it. Thanks for your ideas and concepts.
I see a reoccurring theme... everyone seems to like the mushroom thing. I FEEL LOVED!!!
Oh and also: I very rarely disregard anyone's feedback. Why have a thread if I didn't want feedback? You have a lot of good points, everyone has... who has commented. And I've been taking notes! Twenty minds are better than one.
Well he did make obsidian that when made into a certain shape and lit on fire it will create a magic portal to a flaming hell hole.

We use it where I work for hardfacing on wear parts which is pretty common, and it's also commonly used in machine shops to cut steel. But regular Tungsten? No.
So, perhaps you would have to first make a furnace out of tungsten which could have 2 smelt slots, which you then need to put a tungsten ore + coal/charcoal/coal brick something like that to make tungsten carbide, and then anything made from that would be uber strong.
