well when more then one village or town there would be potential for war so as mentioned soldiers would pop up they could go on raids and such loot vilages and the like. that also makes me think of bands of thieves that could basically do what waring soldiers could do only to anyone and every one.
It'd be pretty epic to have a town armory full of weapons and armor racks and bows and arrows, and when the town is attacked all the civilians assemble a militia to defend against larger threats.
There should then be a form of currency maybe? Or perhaps gold and diamond will be the standard of trade.
I know that I would definitely be a lumber supplier. Maybe make a huge storage yard labeled "The Home Depot" and a massive tree farm in the back. I'd probably start off remodeling/constructing homes for people.
a major tnt surprise attack on a twon wouldn't be a ban, it'd be amazing planning and tactical ingeniousness on the players part! and it'd realy spice things up XD

To me, the biggest variable in any of this being feasible is persistancy. Will servers reset? Are games never-ending? How long can even a "huge" map sustain a community like the one being developed here?
Those who have been around here long enough know that I don't play multiplayer right now. I just don't have the time. If I do start playing Survival Multiplayer, I'll probably be a Jack.
Jack (aka Jack-of-all-Trades)
- A transient figure who enjoys being a part of communities but isn't tied down to them for any number of reasons. Here one day, gone the next.
- Skilled at many jobs, but master of few/none
- Typically will enter a server and ask "what does the community need me to do?"
I plan on hosting a server which would be for those who wish to play a sustained game, it would require people to be dedicated. I'd have a capacity of approximately 60 members to start with (16 allowed on at any one point). Each member would also have a "locker" which is a single chest locked in adminium, it would allow them to save their inventory at the time of logging off and fetch at the time of logging on - it would be run by me or another OP.
Persistance can be achieved by manually adding new resource locations etc. I'll make a full post in a separate topic.
Well the settlement thingy is a must-have, friends to each other will probably stick together and have a village of their own. But I will probably build a castle in a corner of the map and be a lonewolf. What if someone finds the same cave as you, and you have to fight over it, it will only end in sadness. One haves to die, and that is the weakest. And when one dies, he haves to restart and be even weaker, making it almost impossible to have a working community.
not if the 2 people band together to build and work together!
Communism? Crap anything else, I'm going to blow the people who do it's butts off.
Anyways, I'll destroy a couple of trees, go destroy some mobs, and then team up with the people I hate.
With my flint and steel, I'd light their stuff on fire. And head for the hills where my REAL team is hiding.
I can only imagine how much servers will lag though, with TNT blowing up left and right, about 50 people crafting and things. Mobs running everywhere...
No OPs for survival servers, period. Only the owner can ban. Even if a bot is playing, they can still be killed.

whats your beef with lovible old conunism. i think it could work out because poeple who wouldent do **** would get kicked out or kkilled
and if everyone was gathering all the sand the map would run out so the mass nukeing of others vilages would only last for a bit
When survival MP comes out my server will be communist only. Communism has never worked in the past in real life but if done correctly it would be bliss. Thus, why it has failed so far.
I would probably be a WoodCutter, because of how much simpler it would be compared to the other jobs.
I think Notch should create gold, silver and bronze coins, for an economy. When you start in your little house, there is a chest with 10 gold coins. These can be split (using the right-mouse-click) into 10 silver coins each, and each silver coin can also be split (once again, with the right-mouse-click) into 10 bronze coins. Or, if notch doesn't do this, we could just use gold blocks for money.

Communism is, by far, the best idea for governing a small group of people. It can never really work that well for a large nation(Soviet Russia), though.
