State of the Map as of 4/22
Weekly Updates
Friday Week 1 1/24
The tower we showed off is going to be our major plot dungeons. There are a total of 4 of these things! Each one is 52x50 and 254 blocks tall, that's at the world limit! The themes for these dungeons will be revealed in another update in the future! Please follow us for more exciting news in the future!
Friday Week 2 1/31
This shows off a small bit of terraforming. There will be plenty of things including a few things not yet announced. Anyways we hope you will follow us and see what we show of next week!
Friday Week 3 2/15
We show off the desert region and the rest of the map now with completed terraforming. Next week may be a slow week as we go and do detail work. But expect (maybe) a trailer of the landscape.
More info ? What's it about, what do you do? I don't particularly like to watch videos because I can easily and quickly read text! So text would be awesome as well as the video!
Well the Map is a RPG Adventure taken on a massive scale. The plot will be revealed shortly but I can tell you is that it's got a mystery that starts as something small and simple but grows to a quest of a global scale! Game mechanics include a huge map with fast travel, multiple quest lines and endings, a skill system that will impact how the map is played, a Custom Map Resource Pack with voice acting and more!
And while you don't like watch videos please check out some of the future videos as they will contain multiple things such as in depth progress, tutorials on how you may do some of the things seen in the map and more!
Anyways I hope you will enjoy the map once it comes out!
That seems like an amazing custom map, I'm going to follow this. Wow, hope it lives up to what you say it will - and I'm sure it will. Good luck
Thanks! This has been in planning for over 8 months and expanded over time as Minecraft has added more features! The goal of this is to see how far we can take Minecraft to the next level using it as a game engine.
