Idea:
Instead of going online and playing together, there should be another option where everyone is spawned far away from each other and the point is to find everyone and survive on there. This would be fun because you wouldnt be able to talk to ppl unless they were close enough to you and you would have to put up signs and "help" signs to let people know your around. This would offer hours of fun looking for friends and giving clues to where you are and where your friends are. The point of this is just to give you something to do other than the basic "survive" game. I know i've always wondered what it would be like to be stranded and try to find people.
Basics:
When you get a party together, you spawn in set areas, and you could be able to choose the distance from your friends, vary far, to close enough to talk to each other.
Possible Problems:
The only problem i could think is if you choose to be very far away, it could be really difficult to find each other (but thats why you would be able to choose). Another problem would be the extra programming to go into this (but people are buying this game like crazy so there should be enough time and money)
Possible added solutions:
You could also add some items to make it easier to find other people... like a megaphone could reach over farther areas when you talk. It could be made with 3 iron in the middle row and one stick in the bottom left block on the crafting table.
I like this idea, it sounds kind of fun, but what's going to keep my house from being destroyed/looted by other player players when they find me? It's more or less the opposite of what I've seen in multiplayer so far, where you need to hide your house far away from the spawn point and burry it under dirt.

To fix this you could make it so whatever a player makes in his spawn point say... a 50 block cubic area? then only that player can build in that area. If you end up moving multiple people to someones house that happens to be in a starting area of someone else, you could just op those people like you do in multiplayer and let them build there... you just have to make sure your with trustworthy people.
