Offtopic / Ratchet and Clank Movie in 2015!?
« on: April 24, 2013, 03:08:16 pm »
In case you couldnt tell from the subject title, there is supposed to be a R&C movie scheduled for release in Q1 2015.

I am super excited for this movie, i just finished doing some research aka google-ing on the movie and watched the teaser trailer which was uploaded yesterday on youtube. The link can be seen below. According to several resources the story will be written by TJ Fixman, the same man who wrote the original game, along with others in the series; and will feature the same cast that voice acted in the games. The studios in charge of the project are Rainmaker Studios and Blockade Studios. I have not heard of either, however I guess Rainmaker made HotWheels: World Race which I watched and enjoyed as a kid. According to google, Blockade Ent. has worked on previous game's trailers including but not limited to Dante's Inferno, and Heavenly Sword.

Trailer

I am a pretty big R&C fan and I personally, cannot wait to see this!

If you know something about either studio, or the movie itself, share your knowledge :)

Projects and Creations / The Breakers (Mansion Project)
« on: April 03, 2013, 06:26:57 pm »
Hello Opticraft, I have not yet made or begun a large-scale project yet. But I have finally came up with a great idea. The project I am just beginning to start is a mansion (I know, mansions are boring) But this is my most favorite mansion on the planet. It is called "The Breakers" Mansion, it is located in Newport, RI and would cost $331M (Real dollars) if it were to be rebuilt today. I got the idea after visiting my high-school technical drawing teacher because his screensaver was various images of the mansions interior and exterior.

I plan on building this at this semi-empty island

Here are some pics

I do not have a planned completion date, mainly because I don't know what I will be up to especially with school and work.

I am taking the following donations (throw in donations toilet at /home holy_moses breakers)
- Sandstone (all forms)

Rejected / Moderator Application - Holy_Moses
« on: April 01, 2013, 06:46:41 pm »
Age: 19
Location: MA
Timezone: GMT -5
Join Date: Forums: 7/24/11 SMP: 1/8/13
Were you recommended by anyone?: joshskiizz, DJAlphaWolf, Chipaton, Crippnfeet
Why you should become a moderator: I've been a part of the server for a long time, most of it has been spent as a classic operator. Recently, I have noticed there was a lack of moderators/operators on due to time restrictions or inactivity and I have personally received messages from guests and members to place water, find out who griefed their house, and to set fire to their fireplace. I would like to play a bigger part in the SMP server to help keep it grief free and user-friendly for the newer guests.

Offtopic / How did you start gaming?
« on: March 29, 2013, 05:12:12 am »
Wassup peeps.

We are all gamers, we all play Minecraft and enjoy it enough to join and have discussions with people we have never met before (or maybe know, idk.) on a forum for a single multiplayer server. And treat them as, as some people believe, like a "family". Minecraft is only going to be 4 years old sometime in May. And there has to be a reason why we have spent money to play this game instead of saying "Whoa, these Swedes made a cool looking game, point, click, BUY".

My question: What game(s) made you into a "gamer"?, or simply, what game(s) got you into gaming and why? Was it the feeling of empowerment, the ability to control players, the enjoyment of destroying friends in something that they're not good at, or the fact that it was better than being outside where all the crazy $#!7 happens?

(Bold the name of the game you've played to make life easier :3)


Here, I'll start...
I grew up watching Pokemon, you know that anime show and manga from the mid 90's that has exploded into a multi-billion dollar franchise in only 16 years... I became an instant fan after kicking my cousin's ass in "Who's that pokemon?" everyday. That was up until my mom bought me my first video game ever... Pokemon Red for the gameboy. I was so excited to play it, then i realized, I suck at choosing the right pokemon, i only picked them if they looked cool :P. It challenged me to do "research" and investigate how the game worked, which I found to be more fun than to go outside and play hide-n-seek with few places to hide XD. I never really got into the 2nd - 5th generations so dont bother asking about them :P. As I became older, i became more and more bored of Pokemon, almost got into Yugioh, then my cousin introduced me into the Grand Theft Auto series. He gave me his GTA III, and Crazy Taxi discs and his #memorycard when he got Vice City, and I fell in-love with open world genre. And here I am today, a huge GTA nerd/fanboy awaiting the release of the best game ever to come out in September :)

« on: February 25, 2013, 09:46:13 pm »
Hey peoples, I wanted to make a thread on the forums for users to post pictures of funny, weird, crazy, or scary pictures of what they have come across while playing on the server. Feel free to post anything, as long as its not offensive, or ridiculously rude (I mean, we all have a little Seth MacFarlane in all of us :P). Anyways towards the middle of july, I will be awarding $30,000 in-game money to who ever can post the funniest, wierdest, etc. picture on the thread. Have fun and good luck!

How to post a Pic (Windows):
- Press F2 (or Ctrl + F2 for some laptops) to take a Picture in Minecraft
- Open the start menu on your desktop, and  search "%appdata%"
- Open the "Roaming" folder, then open ".minecraft"
- Open the "screenshots" folder and select your desired image.
 = You CAN edit these images with text only! no photo-shopping Sweet Brown in the background for an easy win.

Offtopic / GTA V + Future Plans
« on: January 31, 2013, 04:25:34 pm »
Idk about all of you, but I cannot wait for GTA V. Definately going to be a 5-Star game by the looks of it. And as you may or may not know, Rockstar Games officially announced the release date at 10:00am EST this morning! The proposed release date is September 17, 2013 instead of this spring. Which means most of us will be in school.

I plan on making a pretty decent gaming rig over the summer so I can enjoy the game without having to pay for LIVE and other Xbox crap.

If you have any recommendations as to what brand(s) or equipment I should consider while purchasing parts for the rig, let me know. And, yes, I am going to build my own because I heard the pre-made rigs suck.

General Discussion / Giving up my position as Operator.
« on: August 03, 2012, 02:39:35 am »
SPOILER ALERT: NOT A MISLEADING TITLE

It's true, as of 9:15pm-ish I realized on my way home from school that I have been and will be missing alot of time on the server. Life has thrown me a decent sized reality check, which includes me having to go to school from 2pm-8pm and my need for a job to pay for gas and tuition. I have decided to leave my position on Opticraft's Classic server as an Operator so that another willing person who is applying can have that much more of a chance at being an active Operator. It's obvious that an active Op is alot more valuable than a non-active Op.

Trust me this isn't easy... I have had alot of good times on the server and it will always be the best server ever.
(click to show/hide)
I made good friends and met some of the most talented builders in Minecraft.

I have also had some really good times on the SMP server as while being "simmybird" for the week I had the account :P.

Well I guess this is good bye after 1 year 1 month 1 week with Opticraft.
I will try to hop on the server every now and then when I have the spare time.


If you wanna contact me for any reason heres my stuff.

Skype - t11ciscool
Xbox - T11C (Dont use too often)
Facebook - ask me on skype
Twitter - MosesHasArrived


Good bye!  :'(
                    - Moses, Holy, HM, or Mosey.
 

PS: can I get a cool rank? xD Preferably "Ex-Op"

PSS: hahaha, have a good one and be safe buddies!

Projects / Project Argos.
« on: April 03, 2012, 07:10:46 pm »
I don't know about any of you, but I like Greek mythology, not only because its cool and badass, but because of the awesome depictions of what the locations might have looked like. I have recently watched Clash Of the Titans
 (2010 version) for the 20th time and I just realized how awesome Argos looked. I think it would be amazing for a group build for Opticraft. I personally think this is better than Minas Tirith (Sorry gg :P) Here are some pics.

*PS: I know this will not fit in a classic map.*

Center Altar


Finally The Kraken :o


Not much to work from, I know. Just throwing this out there.

Projects and Creations / What I have been up to... [SP]
« on: February 28, 2012, 03:51:15 am »
As you may have noticed, I do not play on the SMP server anymore due to my friend changing simmybird's password on me. On another note, whenever i have time to my self at home I work on personal projects that are completely mocked up and designed by me. With some inspiration of course.

My latest and most favorite i have done. [Inspiration came from Tower 2 of the WTC]



I am done with 2 of the 3 buildings. As you can see, each building has its own theme,

Building 1 (Front Left) : Earth (Restaurant on second floor)
Building 2 (Front Right) : Nether (Restaurant on second floor)
Building 3 (Back) : Casino ( Not Finished )
Outside Garden ( All Around ) : Garden ( Hasnt been touched)

Please feel free to let me know what you think. I will try my best to keep this topic updated.

Offtopic / Share your scariest Minecraft moment.
« on: February 28, 2012, 12:52:03 am »
I cannot believe I am posting in the off topic forum for something minecraft related  :-[.

but, I am curious...

               
                    What is your SCARIEST Minecraft moment you have ever encountered?

Please mention:
What game mode: (SMP, Classic, Survival, etc.)
Players Involved: (ie. Notch, Herobrine, JohnnySoccer94)
What you did after the incident: (Ran to your mom, Cried in a corner, Told friends, etc.)





Here is mine, its quite embarassing.

                              While i was playing on Opticraft's smp server i was swimming in a underwater ravine, as soon as i ascended past the bottom of the sea that wasn't caved in, a squid appeared. the squid scared the living crap out of me. Afterwards i /home'd and took a giant breather.

PS. - Yes the least harmful mob in the game scared the **** out of me.
