Liking the new stuff in 1.7.2?
« on: 4 Dec 2013, 18:42:42 »
So, a lot of us are playing on other servers, and since the dev build for bukkit has been out for a few days a lot of those servers have switched over.

How are you enjoying it so far?

I like all the new red stuff personally. I also like that mcmmo was not among the plugins that broke in the changeover, which means they should update it with ease.

I'm liking the mcmmo on the other server I'm playing a lot.  For example, when you get above 100 in woodcutting, hitting leaves with an axe you get them to just melt away quickly.  It is a really nice feature.  Also, axe, sword, and archery damage increases way more rapidly as mcmmo goes up than it did last time I played on Noobstown.  The mob drop loot is generally of higher quality as well (it's not unusual to get a half used power III, punch I bow as a drop).  There are also mob head drops as well.  I like wearing my enderman, slime, and especially the silverfish heads I have.  I'm lovin my new home there too waiting to move everything over to the new server shortly.

Big shout out to MrTreeFingers, SkittlesQueen, Bluud, MelinaHites, and PlaneDriver!

:D

I'll admit it, I have been playing on other servers   :( , but I have not found one I like as well as Noobstown. I like the new stuff, but it doesn't save right (in single player). The colored glass, clay, etc aren't saving correctly. The severs I've tried are terrible with lag. See my post Speaking of Lag...

There are more video controls in 1.7.2.  Have you tried to adjust those?  I turned the mini-maps (I think that is what they are called) from 4 to 1 and that helped.  I also reduced slightly the number of chunks visible.  I have also read on other forums that 1.7.2 has caused people in general to experience considerably more server lag.  I noticed Noobstown got severely more lag after Minecraft 1.6 was released and it got progressively worse.  At any rate, I don't have anymore lag problems on the other server than I did on Noobstown.  They do do server saves which causes lag spikes occasionally, but other than that...

Server I've been playing on also has decapitation as well (of both mobs and players) and also legendary monsters. The heads of legendary monsters can be turned into special custom crafting items used in the crafting of special items, pretty cool stuff. They also have custom enchants and jobs that tie into mcmmo skills, pretty cool stuff. Also a huge population so I can annoy people who have been on the server a long time by being the newcomer who's already breaking into the top 10 of herbalism...kinda like I did in noobstown.

Had some lag issues when 1.7 first went up, but seems to have been sorted out. I think it was an issue with some plugins that didn't make the crossover(like mob catcher).

Where I've been playing, they have Legendary tools and weapons, but not legendary mobs.  That does sound cool!  Also, I really, really like that the fact that you aren't allowed to cheat at mcmmo by buying VIP.  As VIP's, you don't get extra mcmmo (x2, x3, etc...) which makes competing with the entire population equal and fair.  Also, moderator's are not allowed to fly which makes competing with them much more fair as well.  Mod's are pretty strickly controlled by the admin team which limits little tyrant's syndrome, which is nice.

Only thing I wish they allowed but don't is the /TPA commands.  I've been trying to convince the staff otherwise, but haven't been successful as yet.  They do allow you to invite people to your homes and you can teleport to peoples shops and towns and the like using /warp commands. 

They have a PVP world and a Peaceful world to build and live, depending on your preference.  They have 9 mining worlds and you can use TNT there...and did I mention Shout Box?  :P

Fun stuff.  :D
