In the interest of creating a thread/discussion that isn't about how big the world, whether or not there will be mods, or any other question that has been asked hundreds of times -
I thought it would be interesting if we shared ideas for hiding bases and valuables in multiplayer. Obviously many of us will create friendly games where we don't grief, but it would be fun to make griefing/war games too.
It seems that all players will have their names visible no matter how far they are from each other: so unless this feature can be turned off, creating a completely hidden base would seem impossible as other players could tell approximately where you are at any time.
But we can still hide our valuables so they aren't stolen from other players.
Ways I'm thinking of:
Burying chests (obviously)
Building a hidden portal and hiding things in the nether, disabling the portal when done
At least we won't have x-ray mods and griefing clients to worry about.
More options will be available when pistons are added.
Hmm,if someone follows you through the portal, then you go back to the overworld and disable the portal: what would happen if they went through? Create a new portal in the overworld perhaps?

Will the name be shown with the health bar above it for all characters or just players playing splitscreen with you? but anyways I would keep my diamonds gold and iron stash in an obsidian box at the bottom of the nether while my regular base is hidden under the sea.
I don't know about your health bar, that would be useful. Thinking back to videos I've seen, I think it is just the gamertag.
An undersea base is a good idea, players would be able to see where you are when you are down there, but not how to get to you. Are there large water features like oceans in 1.6?

Put a entrance somewhere where it can't be seen and make a loooooooooooonnnnng tunnel to a water base underneath a ocean somewhere.
I look forward to looking for your hidden chests. Well... I'll only look for them if you don't care. I'm no troll.

HAHA your kinda gonna start a world size argument and thats what this post was try`n to avaoid.I like your thoughts on hidden chests...maybe we can make a map thats all about that.Seriously think about it if we all come togeather and make an easter egg map with all our ideas....might become pepulare.

Not long like 2,000,000 blocks, i mean just farther than render distance away.
I like that idea. We can have a easter egg hunt looking for a box with a prize, like a diamond or something.
I believe the green that is highlighting their GT is how much health they have. I remeber seeing the green bar on a recent video but I forget which. Also as for the ocean base it would proubly be at bedrock level and random question, when sneaking will it hide our GT like in normal minecraft.

Yeah, it will be fun to make a map where everyone works together and builds, but it would also be fun to make a war map where we steal and sabotage each other
Yeah SuperJeffery that was an idea that I really wanted to try out, maybe like 4 teams on 2 that start out by each going into their own individual corners and the whole world is just based on raiding, killing, defending, and stuff like that. And then there would be certain instances where we would play CTF type gamemodes and such.

So what else can you guys (and gals) think of?

I believe that is how it works.

or Hide your chest in the sky...no one ever really looks up.

I'm pretty sure your right.
Even though I don't think it is, I would love that.
