Survival Map: Death Island - Games

[B][IMG]http://u.cubeupload.com/Samuka97/deathislandbanner.png[/IMG] [/B] [B]DESCRIPTION: [/B]This is another map I made in my free time, it's a small island which is made mostly out of sand, but has a small patch of grass where you can grow trees and have animals spawn. The map also features a enormous cave, full of monsters, lava and waterfalls. Inside it, there's a hidden treasure chest somewhere. It'll take you quite some time, skill and gear to get there, so in the meantime you have to survive on the surface and upgrade your equipment! [B]RULES:[/B] -Only take one of each item from the chest (apart from the torches). -You may use anything you find to your advantage. -Do not use or craft beds. -You can break blocks. -You can place blocks. [b]TASKS:[/b] -Find all of the 5 wool blocks -Collect at least 10 diamonds -Loot at least 2 dungeons -Find the chainmail armor -Make at least 2 mushroom stews -Survive!

Like survival island, but with more death?

The island looks so boring and plain, add some stuff to it

that's a really nice name you have going there

Seeing as the OP needs some time to improve upon things before we can really get into it, does anyone have any links for some good survival maps? I need to mix things up in MC.

[QUOTE=Nukle;31607169]The island looks so boring and plain, add some stuff to it[/QUOTE] The main focus is the cave, not the island. But I will do. [editline]8th August 2011[/editline] [QUOTE=uitham;31606268]Like survival island, but with more death?[/QUOTE] And traps, ruins, a giant cave system and man-made dungeons. [editline]8th August 2011[/editline] [QUOTE=war_man333;31607518]that's a really nice name you have going there[/QUOTE] because when you post on MCForums, you need to have a caps name with fancy custom ASCII letters to get attention. Also because I'm a moron and can't come up with anything.

It would be nice if there was a pregrown tree, it takes so bloody long to get going because you have to wait for the tree to grow.

[QUOTE=spillbert;31612382]It would be nice if there was a pregrown tree, it takes so bloody long to get going because you have to wait for the tree to grow.[/QUOTE] Done. [editline]9th August 2011[/editline] [QUOTE=Nukle;31607169]The island looks so boring and plain, add some stuff to it[/QUOTE] Done.

Yeah it does look really boring. Make it bigger perhaps? It needs to be more interesting, it's lacking some things that really make it feel deserted. Though I do like the idea of it being just a lone island with no other land in sight. What program did you use to make it?

Can I find death?

What program did you use to make it?[/QUOTE] Once again, you're only gonna use the island for your first material-gathering, after that you should be inside the cave looking for the treasure most of the time. Also, I used wolrdpainter to make a full desert map with some caves, used WorldEdit to fill it with water, then I went into SSP, used some TNT and placed down some cacti, chests and signs then built some dungeons. [editline]9th August 2011[/editline] Also, the original survival island looked like this: [img]http://i.imgur.com/Gf6Qo.jpg[/img] It's pretty much what mine looks like, except without 2 mini-islands.

Thanks but no thanks.

Looks neat, I will DL

[QUOTE=Rama214;31659246]Thanks but no thanks.[/QUOTE] This is just stupid. How about instead of going "it suk lol" giving some actual fucking feedback? I'm sorry if it looks like it, but I can't read your people's minds. Honestly, the Minecraft Forums have been more useful than you guys. If you're gonna reply, at least reply with something useful. Mocking my face isn't helping me make this map any better. [editline]11th August 2011[/editline] Also, I've updated the map again.

you should make stone harder to find. Wooden tools are a pain to make with only one tree and with stone abundant in the cave it is so easy to get stone tools.

Go to X: 19 and Z: 42, swim down, and break a block of sand. Congratulations, you just collapsed the roof of the cave!

Looks pretty fun. I might get it.

[QUOTE=Waffle99;31680509]you should make stone harder to find. Wooden tools are a pain to make with only one tree and with stone abundant in the cave it is so easy to get stone tools.[/QUOTE] I don't get it. You don't like wooden tools, but you want me to put less stone in the map?

if you are trying to survive you want it to be harder. Wooden tools make it harder to survive.
