    2 hours into admin and chill and he gives you this look

    Hi all! A lot of ideas are in the mix at the moment as to what we should do next with BuildCraftia. I've talked with Leo, and one of the ideas we have is to bring back Mega Parkour.

    For those of you that don't know, MP was going to be a brand new server in the 2012/13 era. The name was slightly misleading, as MP was a 'gauntlet' type challenge, where there would be a series of obstacles that players would have to overcome in order to get as far as they could. The idea was that the build team behind it would keep adding obstacles as time went on, making the course longer & longer.

    Unfortunately, the old MP map is on Zach's computer. We've asked him hundreds of times to retrieve it but so far we've had no luck. So if we want to make this happen, we'll have to start over again :rolleyes:

    Here is a taster of what the old map looked like:

    I'm sure that with the new additions to minecraft and with the help of our very talented builders, we can re-make MP better than ever before.

    It will mainly be the staff that will work on this. After all, it's our job to give you the best experience possible :p However, I think it would be a good idea to let a couple talented builders help out. So, here goes:

    If you think you'd like to help design BuildCraftia's Mega Parkour server, then drop a comment here showing that you're interested ;)

    You should post your IGN, your previous IGNs (if applicable) (which you can check here: https://namemc.com/ ), and a few screenshots of your best builds. Full credit will be given to you at the MP entrance (so here's the chance to get your name immortalised xD )

    Don't be afraid to post! Depending on the amount of interest this post receives, this server may or may not become a reality. Let's do it! ;)

    Yeah, it's a necropost...

    Just a quick update to say that we're about half-way 'done' with Mega Parkour. I use inverted commas because the idea is that we'll be adding to this map all the time so it'll keep going and going, but in terms of it being ready for release, we're half-way there.

    The course is split into 'stages' with 11 levels in each stage - the last level of which (the Boss Level) is extraordinarily large. We've just completed the first 11 levels of Stage 1 and me & Leo are about to start on Stage 2.

    I'm not going to release any screenshots yet until we're closer to the release date, but it's looking pretty sweet so far :p The gameplay approximately lasts 30mins -/- 1hr so far, so hopefully when it's released there'll be roughly a solid 2 hours of gameplay.

    I'm looking forward to the day when you can all see it ;)
