[MineCraft 1.5] Early info before the update

We do NOT know when the next MineCraft 1.5 update will roll around, but they said it would be in February, and this February ends in less than a week. So, just making a quick announcement: When 1.5 rolls around, instead of saying "do not update", I should let you all know that we plan to go into anarchy mode, so yeah, you *could* update when it happens.

I have returned. Mostly.

To all of our Guild Wars 2 players, I would like to apologize for my extended absence from the game.  Starting around the end of September, I started getting major headaches that wouldn't go away, very similar to migraines.  However, doctors said they weren't migraines because no trigger could be found.  Great.  So now I have headaches and they don't know what they're from or how to help.

Eventually they went away, only to have that pain be replaced by some financial woes and family issues.  My wife and I are down to one computer, and we can't afford to get her another one.  As such, we have to share the one computer, limiting my time in-game as it is.

Just signed up for the Beta.. will this be what drags me away from GuildWars 2?

We'll see.. if Bethesda is smart, they'll give me a beta invite.. and send Pwn9 a bunch of free shwag.

Lets take a moment to talk about lag!

Submitted by supawiz6991 on Sun, 2013-01-27 16:05

Many of you whine and cry "lag lag lag" and almost always blame it on the server and/or plugins in the server. Well I'm going to set the record straight. While yes server lag is a possibility, most of the time the lag is being generated on your end.

How can this be you aay? simple. Three different ways.

1.  Computer Specs:

When Minecraft was first released it was like linux; you could put it on any ol piece of crap computer and it ran well. Minecraft has evolved and changed immensely since then and with all the changes that have been made it now requires better graphics, processing power and memory.

System Requirments (directly from Mojang):

Tired of whining, so pulled ExtraHardMode Plugin from YASMP.. now let the new whining begin.

Submitted by tremor on Sat, 2013-01-26 06:51

Due to immense crying that YASMP was "too hard" to play due to our ExtraHardMode plugin... it is now being removed..  completely..  I'm tired of trying to edit a plugin designed to make the game harder and more interesting, so that it is less hard and less interesting.  Therefor - it is my opinion that's it's both too much work and too much complaining to maintain.  So from here on, the EHM Mod is GONE.

Now we'll have to deal with everyone complaining about how too easy everything is.  Well, y'all made your bed.. now sleep in it.  Enjoy the Pot-Spam the overabundance of all materials from massive and unrestricted farming.

I'm DONE - quitting, and never again going to attempt to modify the minecraft gaming environment to make it less boring.  From here on out, YASMP is going to have the plain old vanilla Minecraft experience...  oh wait, but what's this???  Minecraft 1.5 is coming soon..  and OMG GUESS WHAT -  They are making it HARDER!!!!!!!!!!!!

Guess y'all are going to have to go cry to Mojang then.  

Read about changes below to: Slightly more nerfed farming, increases in AI combat, skeletons anti-mele and increase range, zombies getting a buff, and more.

I can hear it now: 

>Crying Noob:  "tremor take off these @##$ derp mods that make Minecraft harder.. whaaaaa whaaaaaa..  "

 

YASMP Status Update

First things first - we are sorry about the temporary plugin setting that made mobs spawn in your bases.. that was not intentional.

Ok well here is a YASMP status update:

 

  • The hastily made spawn wall was removed and a water border with a little drop off was made.. we think you will find it both useful for deterring line camping, more fun and a lot prettier than the big wall. 
  • The bridge is still enabled, this way, requiring atleast a bit of teamwork in order to lure people out, and then lock them in to be killed.
  • The POOL OF FUN has been added out near the pvp forts. This pool of fun will randomly drop items, it could be dirt or coal, it could be diamond, netherwart, blaze rods or more.  I expect a drop maybe once an hour maybe longer in between, it's quite random.  But this should be a fun way to get people off the line.
  • The hard mode plugin was updated, some configs got reset.. you all got mad..  it's fixed. However, until I get some info from the plugin maker, the plants randomly dying thing is not fixed yet.

Spleef on YASMP

Submitted by DreamPhreak on Sun, 2013-01-06 17:50

Spleef is on YASMP! I dont remember us ever having it officially, other than one on YAFB.

This arena is still in the early stages, and may change or upgrade at any time, as we find better ways to do this. So far, we are just winging it, but soon there might be a plugin to handle it all, automatically, which lets people play without needing any admin to supervise it!

Also, as a bonus, since snowball pickups were already blocked, this arena opened up days earlier than expected, and there has been a good turn out.
