I like the water idea. Do what you think will be the most fun for you because the more fun you have the more enjoyable your videos are! Great job so far, Etho.
This was such a fun episode, or well it looked like a hell of a lot of fun for you when recording it anyway! First of with blowing up that hillside/mountain with TNT and ending up with a 'swiss-cheese mountain' because of all the holes through it xD and then you were trying to 'keep' that baby zombie pigman in the nether hub hahaha! Then to top it off, you go trying to drop anvils on Pause and succeed too LOL! So close as well, with him being down to half a heart from that :o think it would've been even funnier if you had actually successfully killed him through the anvil drop!
The "Fish bowl project" is a great idea! I was thinking cover the top opening of the mountains and giving it a glass dome. You could have buildings jutting out from the side of the mountains and a network of bridges, and alternate it into an underwater city. Over the water you got this whole network of bridges and houses, then under is a beautiful glass city with lots of glowstone and lamps!
Ergo, you have inspired me to make big builds and make redstone creations that some servers that I play on use. Every time I see your vids I always whisper to myself "Hey guys, It's Etho here again" I wish to play with you some day. Keep on making these great vids dude :D
Etho, make your base incredibly technical and over the top. Things can often look good just because of the design and it's functionality. Also, it would be great if you considered making a team with SethBling; you could make your over the top technical base together.
i really think the fish bowl idea is a great idea...leave the house under the water though so there would be like a random roof sticking up out of the watter like a flood happened or something:)
YES TO THE FISHBOWL! Make it so that you have an underground part that isn't flooded made of glass, and have an actual base underneath the water! And, have the entrance so that you have to use the new potion of water breathing to get in!
Do the fishbowl. One recommendation I have is to just go crazy with the transportation. Minecart and boat roads and canals everywhere, it would give a sweet look to the place
Make a village for villagers inside the fish bowl. If I recall from the last server, you experimented with making underwater air pockets/ bases. Make that village a secondary entrance to an underground base. Make a semi-continuous building structure around the bowl. That could serve as a main way into an underground base. You could make the whole base (Underwater and surrounding buildings connect as a village.)
Fill it to the brim and build a secret underwater base, with a building on top, so it looks like a house on a lake, but has a awesome bit under the lake
I would also build in the mountains too and have a mine cart system though out it. so you can have most of the transportation, that and you could build a couple of awesome bridges!
You could put the little zombie pigman on a lead behind a halfstone wall so it fits with the design in the nether already. keep the post he's tied too like 7 blocks back so he only has limited space to move.
Flood the first 3-4 layers above a base block and make a spire port in the center with bridges branching to the top of the mountains. You could give bdubs some business and help you. An example is the crater port in pirates of the Caribbean. Like so he can see!
I love the Mountain Village Idea! A river going threw the village would be awesome. although the flood I'm not a fan of. But If majority rules I hope It will be awesome!
I really like this series Etho :D It's so awesome and I look forward to it every day.. I don't know what it is about it, because I've made many minecraft videos but they never seem to be as good as this.. What ever it is you are doing though, you are doing it right, and it is amazing :D Keep it up man!
i think it would be a cool idea to add certain challenge kills to the death games, like dropping an anvil on the person to kill them. You could make it fair by saying that they only get one drop, and if the fall doesn't kill them, then that would count as them losing the fight. That would dissuade people from doing it constantly. Others could be managing to drown the target, or kill them with fall damage.
one of the things that i love to do is make a huge water slide . you should make one back to spawn. that would be so cool and something very new to the server
Etho Corp's mountain side roller coaster, water park, and horse race track! come out now for the coolest in redstone automated water rides! Ride craziest minecraft roller coasters through mountain tops, lakes, and uncharted caves! and test your equestrian skills in the most challenging horse track you will ever race! (Don't forget to place your bets with the B-team bookies, lol)
I like the Idea just tone it down a bit, make the lake smaller for example. And make more buildings and structures on the side of the mountain, perhaps combining the buildings on top with the ones on the side of the walls, making the entire mountain infected with Etho
Etho, before you get into an unterminable wither hunt, I want you to know that you can't set up a beacon in the nether because of the bedrock on the roof, like so he doesn't spend 5H for nothing!
XD Your road to spawn could be a river. But anyway, Yes. i liked the idea below about making it a fake lake though A hidden society or gardens underneath and above something like ancient remains of how they once lived above... interconnecting homes and things. It fits the 'theme' that seems to be happening on this server and is also unique at the same time, you know?
etho i really like your idea with the water and i think you should instead make that river come up and pour off that large mountain with the overhang that way you could a small cave are behind the water fall and maybe add some vines or make a cool cave spot.
I say you should build your base ontop of the mountains and put a tripwire that triggers noteblocks all throughout your base in front of your nether portal that way when someone is hunting you in the death games they come through the portal and the noteblocks work as an alarm...then you are on the mountains they are in the valley giving you the high ground advantage...
Hey Etho: Red at the Hub might be ocean right now but that might change in the new snapshot when new chunks are generated beyond the continent. Depending on what spawns there might be valuable stuff appearing in that direction.
Okay. Because Pause said he thought it was Death Games related... "Anvil of Justice". It needs to happen! And extra diamond rewarded for an anvil kill. It'd make things even more interesting on the Death Games!
Gosh I wish sometimes Etho played pranks on himself like they did in MindCrack in his single-player world. It might sound insane, but remember the door that led to nothing?
Etho, I know you get a ton of requests, but you should totally take Seth around the server and show him around. I don't exactly know the relations between you guys, and the call could be kinda awkward, but you are both nice guys, and Seth seems to be fumbling. You should consider taking him under your wing considering your mutual appreciation for redstone =D
You should have rivers leading to waterfalls on all sides which collect to a lake with an island in the middle where your house would be. Similar to the horseshoe falls at Niagra
