Thought about these for awhile. With no place to put them where they could be public other then friends, I decided to post them here for the whole community (and maybe Notch if he looks enough) to get their opinions on it. And remember, this is for the legit client, not hacks, custom servers, etc. I'd like some opinions on these, too, and scratch some off and on.
CREATIVE MODE
⁃ Build menu is on the HUD at all times on the top, and you scroll around with the arrow keys. There are 9 blocks (3x3) at a time.
⁃ View bobbing and blocks in hand are visible here, too.
⁃ Doors, opened and closed with E.
⁃ Some time of weird admin glow thing. The admin can make any block adminium, and when its near the mouse
⁃ Names stick through walls.
⁃ Teleporters. To prevent griefing, you can aim it and press E to go through. Maybe admins only.
⁃ Paint a block tool. Instead of deleting and adding a new block (in example if its blocking water or lava), you repaint the block to something else. Might not work with stairs though.
⁃ Admins can spawn blocks that make lava and water.
⁃ Creative mode available to everyone, including people without a purchase.
⁃ Add wild animals found in this mode. They cannot hurt.
⁃ TNT (maybe admin only) because it gets annoying having to take 20 minutes to make a simple underground room.
SURVIVAL MODE
⁃ Stepping in the smoldering effect wounds you.
⁃ The more damage you take, the slower you are.
⁃ Depending on the block, it may do more melee damage.
⁃ Bow and arrow visible in inventory.
⁃ Blocks near the explosion have that weird "random offsets per request" effect to give a more melted effect.
⁃ Every 10 minutes, it turns from day to night. During the night, more enemies show up, water gets higher, and things erode by a few blocks.
⁃ Weather. It should effect the gameplay, e.g. rain floods holes, snow may eventually hurt and it will cover the place in it, and freezing rain adds random ice around the place.
⁃ Mushrooms rarely create more and more.
⁃ Enemies have their own sounds, so you can tell what kind is right above you inside your mine.
⁃ Lava destroys everything except rock.
⁃ A dog. Follows you, barks when you approach a hidden mob.
PROBABLY NOT POSSIBLE TO ADD BUT COULD BE KEPT AS A SIDE NOTE
⁃ More dynamic lighting effects that would be optional to prevent lag.
⁃ Voice chat.
⁃ Admins having their own special hat.
⁃ Server-side radios.
⁃ If you move like 10 tiles above the clouds, you go into "space" where you fly around.
⁃ In non-competetive modes, you can see the outline of a player in walls, so you can tell where they are.
⁃ Vehicles, like jeeps and boats. Not only would it be fun, it would let people get around a lot easier then do now.
⁃ Walljumping so it can be easier to get higher without flying.
⁃ Instead of cloth, have a block controlled by a color wheel for coloring purposes.
⁃ Entities like tables, chairs, TVs, etc., because making them out of blocks is lame.
⁃ Able to make smaller blocks.
BLOCKS
⁃ Snow. Behaves like sand, basically.
⁃ Ice. Slippery, freezes water to make more, melts.
⁃ Floaty block. Fun times for water levels.
⁃ Fire. Burns stuff, can spread if rocks are not around it.
⁃ Crystal. Found in caves, just a fun little add-on.
⁃ Bouncy blocks. Making a moonhouse would be really awesome. Could be affected by how far you fell in.
⁃ Acid.
MOVEMENT
⁃ Walking animations is different. When walking, the arms and legs just tilt a bit instead of spreading out as far as they do.
⁃ The ability to run. It uses the current walking animation so it can be easier to get around.
⁃ Admins can "slay" people, making them not able to do anything for a minute.
⁃ Some type of spectator-type thing, for recording and just watching out of boredom.
⁃ Admins have a different font color, so it is easier to tell who is who.
⁃ The ability to play in third person, shoulder-view so you can still build.
EDIT: I am aware this breaks the rules for this forum section, but I plan this to be some type of "community list".
i really like the idea about admins "slaying" people. this would help immensely with griefers. Instead of kicking or banning them, you could momentarally immobilize them and talk to them to see if they are guilty or not
