What can be done or built in minecraft. Play the hunger games

Minecraft, despite the fact that it has the simplest graphics and simple plot, was able to quickly gain popularity among users. The game has no limits in freedom of action. Here everyone can conduct experiments and implement their ideas. You can build anything you want: a portal, a house, mechanisms, entire civilizations, etc.

Here, for example, such a house:

Here, mainly engaged in the extraction of necessary resources. They are needed in order to carry out construction, and to produce battles. New players often have a question about what can be created in such a game? If you do not set a goal, figure it out, it will be difficult to understand how to play. To build something, you always need to have resources. Some of them can be mined by destroying old objects.

It is necessary to have the tools with which the construction is carried out. The first tools here will be wooden products.
When creating them, you need to destroy the tree. To do this, find several trees and strike at their trunks to get wood. In addition to the tools in this game, Kraft will be. To work with it, you need to create a special workbench from the boards (in this case, there is a chance to make such tools as a pick or ax). For axes, see the article how to make an ax.
In this case, you can create a furnace, and already in it to produce glass and coal. See here How to make a stove. Each craft has its own size. For example, if we talk about a workbench, then his dimensions are 3X3. Naturally, the sizes of the objects that will be made here should not exceed such values. The game has over 170 recipes with schemes in order to build various objects (for example, weapons). Each recipe needs its own resources.
Craft allows you to do some types of resources yourself. If desired, it is possible to form different types of military equipment. This game is used by many schools where students can create different civilizations from cubes. With the help of special architectural materials, it is possible to build even Ancient Rome.
Minecraft helps to memorize lessons and also allows you to enjoy the game process. When creating an object from cubes, it makes it possible to find a huge number of sub-options of classes. Moreover, there is a chance to fight with all sorts of monsters and defend themselves from them.

All this is included in the Minecraft universe. Beginners will first need to build special structures for protection. If this is not done, then most likely the player simply will not survive. Different monsters are easier to fight if you have many types of weapons.
There are also methods of struggle, which are devoted to many guides. It has always been a joy for gamers to “crush monsters” from the time of arcade games. Minecraft is able to bring the player a lot of pleasant sensations.
In such a game, jewelry seekers will feel good, since they have something to do here. All dreams can come true here. Especially this game will appeal to those who wanted to mine gold in childhood. Among other things, the game makes it possible to create various machines. In this case, it all depends on the player’s imagination.
If the construction is carried out on a multi-user server, then other players can help each other with tips. In the game there are special polygons on which objects are created according to the template.
Buildings are being built thanks to the game mode called “Creativity.” When creating a new world, click on the button and select “Creative”.
First you need to practice and only then proceed to the masterpieces. You can give advice here. Before you start creating something in the game, it is best to depict a plan on a piece of paper - what will be built. The beautiful object of the multi-user version can always be a decoration of the server.

At the numerous requests of our readers, we decided to start the Minecraft construction section in a blog. In this section, we will tell you about the basics of construction, architectural techniques and tricks, which not everyone knows, we will show how to build beautiful houses of certain architectural styles, fortresses and large structures.

Minecraft is a game designed for survival and extraction of resources, however half of the game, mainly players in single player mode and are not engaged in construction. For most, a box of earth or cobblestone will come down to lay down resources and put stoves and layout, but building in minecraft can be much more interesting than just building a hut for an overnight stay.

In order to practice construction, put the game in Creative mode and try to create something amazing. In addition to ordinary houses and huts, you can build real objects and attractions from our world, for example: the Eiffel Tower, the Templar Fortress, the Mayan Pyramid and other great creations of great architects of any time.

Of course, for the construction of minecraft, you can use any kind of blocks. Let's talk about them.

Traditional building blocks - stone, stone brick, cobblestone, planks, sandstone.

Any traditional material can be presented in several forms: mossy stone bricks, patterned sandstone and others that you can create or get in dungeons and temples. All types of blocks are available to you in Creative mode.

Wood is an interesting material for the decor of the interior and exterior of buildings. You can arrange it on the side so that you can see the internal structure of the tree, later we will use this technique.

Using other blocks can help you not only in decorating your interior, but also in protecting against monsters and other players on the servers. Use more blocks, such as: snow, wool, quartz, hell stone and burnt clay, to add uniqueness to your building. Keep in mind that some blocks may be energized, you must place flammable blocks no closer than 4 blocks from a fire source or 2 blocks on any other side.

Building blocks can also be used for decors: the lever can be a mixer in the bathroom, and hatches can be used as sash windows.

Here are a few simple construction rules that you should follow when building a building of any complexity:

Decide on the construction. Inspire the buildings of other players.
Decide on the size. Draw a mock-up of the building on paper or in a graphics editor on the computer.
Decide on the location of the building.
Prepare the landscape for construction.
Prepare a foundation that will help you navigate during construction. Make markers for the center and corners of the building, designate the walls and the height of the floors, determine where the front side of the building will be located, and where the side walls will be.
Start building! Start with the walls, floor and ceiling, then go to the roof.
Add details! Small details for your home, in the right hands, will make a creation from any box.

If you are going to build a real building, do not forget to take into account the scale: each block is approximately 1x1x1 m. Measure the walls of your house, the height of the ceilings and doorways, if you want to recreate it in minecraft. Remember that only whole blocks are used in minecraft, so you have to round off the measurements.

In Minecraft, 1 block is 1 meter cubic, so Steve’s height is about 180 meters.

If your building is conceived more or less than the original, multiply or divide the actual dimensions by a certain number. For example, if you want to build a huge copy of a house that is 3 times larger than the original 15x10 meters in the perimeter, then you should multiply 15 * 3 \u003d 45 and 10 * 3 \u003d 30, it turns out that the perimeter of your building will be: 45x30.

Do not forget to count the blocks if you play in Survival mode. You may need more blocks than there is in your chest. If you do not have enough blocks, you will have to suspend construction to extract the necessary blocks. Such moments can bring down the rhythm of the building and you forget what you wanted to do. The creative process is easy to knock down, but hard to bring back.

In order not to lose count during construction, mark the stages of construction:

Replace every fifth / tenth block with another to count and navigate in the wall edge
Dig holes in the ground
Mark every fifth / tenth block with a stone nearby.

Buildings in Creative mode are lighter, but not as interesting as in Survival mode. Building in a hostile world is much more appreciated than with an unlimited number of blocks. Use the following tips during construction in Survival mode (Creative):

Build scaffolding from the ground to reach hard to reach places. Then they are easy to remove.
Carry a couple dozen blocks of sand and a shovel. As the sand falls, you can easily and quickly descend from a height. Put a column of sand underneath, jump up and dig under your feet to go down. Gravel is also suitable, only in the end it will become graphite, although this is useful if you want to make arrows later.
You can also go down with a bucket of water, pour water near you, wait until enough amount is collected, then quickly remove the source and jump into the water elevator. Without a source, water will not spill over a long distance.
Hold Shift + W to move forward, carefully approaching the ledge. So you will not fall when you come to the very edge.

That's all, this time. In the next article, we will talk about how to create circles, balls, and curves from square blocks.

Making a home is one of the most basic tasks of your virtual character. The residential building provides him with reliable protection against creepers, and accordingly allows him to survive in the Minecraft game world.

Looking at the built house you can always say about the degree of prosperity of the player. As a result of this, everyone wants to build houses as best as possible. The coolest is considered mechanical, in which almost everything is automated.

When traveling, it is best to build quickly erected houses from affordable, cheap resources (only for an overnight stay). Naturally, such a house has its drawbacks:

high noise from minecraft creepers;
low strength.

Types of houses

In Minecraft there are the following types of typical buildings:

man-made underground cave;
from stone blocks;
mushroom;
tree building;
cottage (estate);
castle;
underwater.

Let's consider them in order of listing ...

To make it you need a shovel and pickaxe. For about 30 seconds. the user will be able to build this type of home. First it will be necessary to find a cave or earthen place on the map of minecraft. Next, dig a dugout to save and overnight your game character in kraft world.

The advantages of such a dwelling are that it can be quickly built and protected for the first time from unfriendly mobs. Cons - naturally, in low strength.

To make such a house, you need a mushroom (red is preferred), bone meal, a small number of blocks from other materials. The growing time of such a building will take no more than 10-15 seconds. It is very simple to build - the mushroom is fed with bone meal to the size necessary for the user. After that you need to put a ladder to it and begin to settle down.

The advantage of this construction is the speed and low cost. The negative point is poor explosion resistance.

In order to build, you need up to 3 stacks of stone blocks, up to 30 blocks of stele or glass panels. You can make such a home in about 10 minutes. It is relatively easy to build. First, a kind of square (rectangle) in the form of a cube (parallelepiped) is built from the blocks. Next, install glass doorways, glass windows.

The house is good in that it is characterized by high strength and fire resistance. An essential convenience is the fact that the house is easily converted into a mechanical one, which will be original and practical at the same time.
The negative qualities of this project are: - typicality (many gamers build in a minecraft sandbox).

In order to carry out the construction of a house of this type, up to 3 stacks of blocks, glass and double-glazed windows, a sufficiently large number of stairs are required. At the beginning of construction, it is possible to climb a tree by means of vines.
The construction time will take up to 15 minutes, this is not counting the time to find a suitable tree. You can make it on a large oak (2 to 2 blocks) or tropical wood. They climb a wooden house using stairs.

The advantage of this type of home is that it is actually the most effective protection against mobs in the sandbox minecraft. This type of house is very beautiful. The disadvantage of such a construction is only in the complex construction process.

To make this object it is necessary to collect up to 4 stacks of building materials of a sufficient degree of strength, glass and double-glazed windows. We build it in no more than 4 hours. Building is not easy. The simplest stone project with a separate farm and mine, surrounded by a wall. Beautiful, looks from the side. the positive side of such an object is the maximum degree of security. The disadvantages of this project include longevity and requires a large number of building materials.

You need to prepare up to 50 stacks of durable building materials. It takes a very long time to build - up to several days. The construction is complex and the severity lies in its scale. However, the undoubted advantage of such a residential building is its style. A user having a lock of this kind acquires a certain status.
The advantage of minecraft castle is that:

a lot of free space;
complete invulnerability of the virtual game character in minecraft;
further it is possible to refine to mechanical;
the beauty of the structure.

By cons, users include: durability, creepers appear in the cellars over time.

Underwater

To carry out the construction of this object, stock up with a lot of glass, time and nerves. The construction time will be no less than a few days. Building is relatively hard. The positive aspects of such housing:

always at hand fish;
with proper lighting, only the octopus will spawn near the house;
inside is very beautiful;
relatively safe.

The minuses of life under water in minecraft include:

very difficult to expand underwater in minecraft;
if one block breaks, then flooding is quite possible;
the complexity of converting it to a mechanical type due to the fact that the mechanisms will be difficult to install.

In Survival Mode, at first glance, everything is the same. Actually not: you find yourself in the middle of a hostile world in which terrible monsters crawl out at you from all the cracks at night, and you can build only those blocks that you picked up or made on your own during the game. The emphasis is shifting radically: in Survival you build not because you want it, but because you cannot survive without creating shelters and various objects. Although you will sculpt for pleasure too - but only after you secure the rear, get comfortable and get comfortable in the game world.

Secondly, you do not need them. Whatever poultice you use, is a game created for your imagination. No beautiful effects can replace your hard brain work. It was originally created in such a way that you can make it into small pieces and reassemble its endless worlds - that is why the game engine and building mechanics are built around cubes; the concept and geometry of cubes is understandable even to a child (remember? this is LEGO), and the logic of exploration and construction of the world, thanks to these cubes, is completely transparent. Realizing this and accepting this forced assumption, you will immediately begin to see forests, mountains, rivers and ominous caves behind a set of strange ladders - and as soon as this happens, you will discover a brave new world.

5. Starting the game, do not get lost

Each game in begins in a randomly generated world. This means that no one in the world, even Marcus Persson himself - even if he is in second place on the Time list - has no idea where your journey starts. Meanwhile, the tactics and your first actions in the game greatly depend on what biome you find yourself in.

You may be lucky, and you will find yourself in a sunny meadow next to a forest and mountains. A forest is a source of wood, which you can mine, you can build houses, interior items, and even weapons. In the mountains, there are often caves that hide vital coal and rare minerals (and monsters, of course); besides, mountains in themselves are a lot of stone, indispensable in any construction.

Or maybe not lucky, and you will start the game in the middle of a hot desert, in which there will be no wood, no stone, no coal - nothing at all but useless cacti and endless sand. Or you start on a tiny island in the middle of the ocean, from which you can only swim to the mainland - and it is still unknown which way to row.

All of this can be discouraging. However, wherever you start the game, do not get lost or panic. Remember that you can die in this game mainly for two reasons: meeting a monster or not eating in time.

Monsters live and breed in the dark: so do not try to meddle in caves and gloomy forests without arming yourself to the teeth. Remember: it will soon begin to get dark, night will come - and at night to be outside the walls of a house is completely destructive. Therefore, starting the game, immediately think about where you will spend the night. If there is a forest nearby, collect several blocks of wood with your bare hands, then make an ax, chop up some more trees and build a completely small, but hut, where you can sit for the first night (instead of the door, you can close the passage into it with mud or sand - the main thing is not to leave it exit to the street). If there is no forest, and it’s already getting dark, don’t panic - dig a hole right in the ground, hide in it and brick yourself up at night. Or climb a tall tree (a piece of stone, an earthen hill) and wait for the morning at the top. At the worst, hide in some kind of dead end - there is always a chance to survive the night (especially the first).

6. Get food in advance

The problem of hunger for a novice player is probably more serious than finding an overnight stay. Over time and with each of your actions in the game, you will want to eat more and more - and if you delay with a meal, you will begin to lose health. As luck would have it, cows, the killing of which is necessary for the extraction of meat (only kill the animals not with their bare hands, but with the sword!), Are rare and not in all biomes. Having found the meat, try not to eat it raw, unless you are on the verge of death - cooked on fire, it is much more effective in satisfying hunger; In addition, the risk of food poisoning is reduced.

Try to make a fishing rod as soon as possible: you can fish in almost every puddle, and this is a great way to periodically reinforce yourself without wasting time hunting. Well, learn on the Internet the rules for organizing gardens and irrigation systems: it’s always nice to have your own hand-grown bread in your backyard.

7. Learn to build

Your reference book when playing a game should be an iPad with an open encyclopedia of “recipes” for creating certain objects in it. Study the properties of things carefully and create everything you need. At first you won’t live without a workbench and furnace, but don’t stop there. The entrance to your new home would be nice to shut the door. Be sure to build a bed in the house: thanks to it, you can sleep at night, reducing the waiting time for dawn, and in case of death, be reborn next to it, and not to hell where.

In no case do not forget about torches. Monsters are known to be born in the dark; therefore, if you fence yourself off from the outside world with high walls, but forget to carefully illuminate all the corners of your home, sooner or later at the moment of your relaxation some muck will attack you - we hope it will do without a heart attack. Soon you will become bored and cramped in your hut, and you decide to expand it by adding new rooms and corridors, or even deepen it by starting to dig down. Hang torches on the walls at short intervals and collect all the coal found in the mountains as soon as possible: without it, you can’t get fire.

A game about building; to build certain objects, sculpt the most ambitious buildings in it can be infinite. Do not forget to only replenish supplies of food and ensure your own safety.

8. Explore!

The worlds generated are almost endless (at least in the PC version): you have to spend more than one year of real time to get to one end of the local universe. Such a long journey is, of course, an excess, but do not hesitate to expand the area of \u200b\u200byour possession and explore, explore, explore. Finding walled underground storage of crystals, or bizarre lava lakes, or beautiful waterfalls in the forest, or strange abandoned buildings that hide jewelry is one of the key charms of the game. The farther you move away from your first home, the more time you have to drag yourself back; instead, build additional homes or transhipment points. You can even build a railway and start riding back and forth in a wheelbarrow!

A key element in exploring the world is excavation. Arm yourself with a shovel and pickaxe and start gnawing at the ground or picking a stone - and sooner or later, delving into a mountain or paving the way down, you will come across something interesting: a gold mine or a cave with spiders, for example. Do not be afraid to dig, just always keep in mind the most important rule: you can not dig directly above yourself and under you; always work diagonally or sideways. Otherwise, you risk falling a ton of sand on your head or falling into a lava lake.

9. Fantasy!

As stated at the beginning of this article, this is a sandbox game in which you need to entertain yourself. If you are used to such games and are ready for hours to complete random missions in GTA, this will not bother you; if you love games leading you by the hand, then you can get bored.

As soon as you get comfortable in the world of the game, build a small house, learn to fight monsters and get food, you will certainly ask yourself: what to do next? Answers can be very different. For example, in there is a kind of “end of the game”: you need to get into a parallel world and kill a dragon, as well as fight with a three-headed skeleton-like monster. It is clear that in order to achieve this goal, you will have to go through all the circles of hell, learn how to make the most powerful weapons and armor, collect a bunch of rare minerals (including visiting the hell here - the Nether world, in which it is extremely difficult to survive) and pick up dozens of powerful enemies .

However, you can do without it. The best incentive to keep playing and discovering new facets is to turn on the imagination. Set an ambitious goal and start working. For example, build the entire building of your office - with all floors, rooms, doors and windows. Or explore every single cave you can find. Or lay several branches of the underground (ground? Air?) Metro. Or build a glass underwater city of Rapture or the heavenly city of Columbia. Or build huge calculator . Or build death star . Open up YouTube in general and get inspired.

Unless, of course, you have a couple of years of completely free time.

10. Play with people

Sociopathy and endless loneliness is one of the delights of exploring a hostile world, but be sure to try playing with other people. You can find a random server and join the world in which people are already building their civilization - just to walk around the district and see what other players could achieve is very interesting. Settle right there, build your own house next to the neighbors, set up a garden - and soon you will realize that it’s much more interesting for other living people to brag about their architectural achievements than to meditate on them in splendid isolation. And then you will gather in a gang and arrange a joint raid on Nether in order to gain experience points and pick out rare sand.

And if some bastard comes to your house, ruins it or burns it to the ground - you can do the same. Go and blast the neighbor’s castle with dynamite. Lava his cellar. Destroy his garden. Destroy his Rapture or empty his Columbia. - A game about construction, but it can also be destroyed; there is no limit to human abomination, except for the server settings.

***

A game for which you can spend years. It's not obligatory; a few days are enough. But you must try the classics, and not a single excuse will work. If, of course, you at least like video games and appreciate the emotions and impressions that they can give. Just start - then everything will turn out by itself.

As you know, Minecraft belongs to the not too common sandbox genre, which has only one rule - the absence of rules. Here you find yourself in a world with any element of which you can interact. You can create objects, build buildings, hunt animals, fight monsters and so on. Nobody gives you tasks, does not offer a storyline - your hero simply exists and survives. And it depends only on you how long he will be able to withstand, as well as how he will be remembered. After all, you can just get food and defend yourself from monsters, or you can create, create something incredible and unique. Some gamers spend many hours behind Minecraft, since it is here that they can give free rein to their imagination and create something amazing that they have never been allowed to do in other computer games. Buildings in Minecraft are what you should pay special attention to. Again, no one forces you to be creative - you can dig a dugout for yourself where monsters cannot get in and enjoy what you have. And you can create huge and breathtaking designs, the most spectacular of which will be discussed later.

Castle construction

One of the first buildings that comes to mind when it comes to impressive buildings in Minecraft is the castle. Here you have the opportunity to unleash your imagination, since there is no universal scheme or recipe. Everyone can build their own castle to their liking, but the principle is approximately the same for everyone. The main distinguishing feature of the construction process is the incredible cost of resources. If you do not have huge reserves of stone, wood and other objects, then you better not take up the construction of the castle. Its biggest plus is the size and impressive appearance, but it is worth noting that you will have to build it for a very long time. So if you are not ready for this, then you better consider other buildings in Minecraft.

Underwater house construction

The construction, which is almost completely submerged, looks much more exotic. Buildings in Minecraft are usually located on land, but this building is an exception. It is submerged, so no monster can reach you, your housing will not be noticeable, and you will always have a reliable source of food in the form of fish and seafood. But in a similar building, of course, there are also disadvantages. First of all, it is fragility - if you lose one block, then all the space inside the house will be flooded. You can die, and the work of several days will go down the drain. In general, this is a very unusual structure, but it is very difficult to see it. So you can also consider the beautiful buildings in Minecraft.

Flying island

If you want to surprise other players, then you can try to design a flying island. This is a rather difficult task, but you can make beautiful buildings in Minecraft in an amazing place. So, you need to rise with the help of pillars to a certain height, and then there begin to construct an inverted pyramid, that is, a figure that will expand upward. This will be your island. When it is ready, you can erect various structures on it that will decorate it. Which ones? This is a matter of your imagination. You can choose some real-life palace, create a wizard’s cabin, which keeps the earth in the air and so on. You can install here any for them can be both simple and complex. As in the whole game, no one will limit you on the flying island. Just always be careful not to fall down and die.

More flying designs

For this building, you will need a special mod that will allow you to create flying equipment in the air. This is not the construction of a beautiful house in Minecraft, it is a much more complex event, which is fraught with a huge number of dangers. So, again you need to rise as high as possible, where you will carry out the construction. Then you need to create the basis for your airship, and then complete its construction and equip it with a control unit so that it is not a dead load, but a real vehicle. But you should understand that it is very difficult to build such a structure, plus to everything, you constantly have to control the control unit so that the transport does not fly away from where you are unlikely to return it. If you do not want to take such a risk, you can consider all the schemes for building houses in Minecraft and choose something beautiful, but not so difficult.

Skyscraper

If ordinary houses do not quite suit you, then pay your attention to something more original. You might like the more impressive ones in Minecraft. You can find schemes for them on the Internet, or you can completely plan them yourself. For example, if you have enough experience in this game, you can create a skyscraper. The principle is quite simple: you decide on the plan, create one floor, and then begin to build on it other floors on the same principle. This is a very long and complicated process, but just imagine what awaits you in the end - your own multi-story skyscraper, in which absolutely all floors are residential. This means that on a multi-user server this building will bring you both universal recognition and impressive benefits.

Houseboat

You have already read about the possibility of creating your own shelter under water, but it is practically invisible, so it can hardly be attributed to the section of beautiful designs. But if you raise this house and place it not under water, but on water? This will be a great solution, as you can build an original and unusual design. But again, it will not be easy for you to complete the construction process, since it is very difficult to do this on the water. However, in the end you will get a houseboat, an island or even a ship - it all depends on what goals you set for yourself.

Imagination

So, you learned about some popular beautiful designs that require great skill, but at the same time provide incredible returns. As a result, you will get guaranteed quality designs that people will like. But you don’t have to use ready-made schemes and recipes, you can always connect your imagination to the maximum and create something completely original that the world of Minecraft has not yet seen. And if your imagination works at a sufficient level, then everything should work out for you, since the whole world represents one big resource for you. You have no time limits, no budget, no materials. You have everything, and you can turn it into the most beautiful and impressive building from the existing Minecraft.
