Minecraft Faction Server

As you already know, Minecraft is game devoted to teams formed by individual players. To join your teammates you can connect to Minecraft multiplayer servers, giving you many opportunities to gain more power in the game.

The most popular Minecraft mode servers are Economy, Survival/PvP and of course, Faction PvP. The Big Three popular server types, gain not only most of the players` attention, but attract the largest number of users. The biggest aim for the users of Minecraft is to form Factions and fight the other Factions. Players can achieve their goals online using Craftbukkit server software and Faction plug-ins. The players in a faction can defend their land, owned by the faction and fight with the enemies. The servers offer opportunities to ally with other factions and to declare war against hostile factions. The amount of the land and the time of it protection, could be decided by the faction members, which are the defenders of the land. The Minecraft Factions servers allow griefing and are very flexible in customization.


Numbers of Minecraft Factions servers` plug-ins allow game users to create and defend factions, and to protect themselves from griefing. The players, using plug-ins can easily inspire politics and intrigues on their server. The Faction servers are the best place to better your team spirit and to guild, which is the main target for the game itself. As all the Minecraft users already know each faction comes with 5 guards and each faction has 1 free shop. Players, using Faction servers try to include more members for their factions. The more people join one faction, the higher its Power Level is. It reflects, also on the land a player can achieve. The more Power Level one player gets the more land he/she is capable to gain. 

Crafting in Minecraft

Minecraft is a game, based on building different structures. The process is called crafting, and the players are able to use blocks, tools and many other resources. Crafting starts when a player moves blocks or tools from inventory into the crafting grid. For example, 2x2 crafting grid can be accessed directly from the player`s inventory. A larger one crafting grid, 3x3 can be accessed by clicking the right button of the mouse on the Crafting table. In Minecraft there are items, which arrangement do not matter at all, they can be formed in different shapes. For example, the Fermented spider eyes can have its ingredients place anywhere within the blocks.

As for the Minecraft rules and features, the main game objects must be in certain and arranged forms. These objects, during the game, can be transformed in other form, which must fit the crafting grid. The Minecraft players have easy access to their game inventory, which made possible working with 2x2 crafting grids. There are certain grids that need larger sizes. For example, when a player makes bread, it can`t be transformed into 2x2 grid, because the object`s recipe is 3x1 by default. It means that the bread can be made on the top, bottom or middle row of the 3x3 grid.

The size of the grid does matter in Minecraft, as recipes made in for2x2 crafting grid can be made only in that size. Tools, such as wooden planks, sticks, and even crafting table are always in this certain size.
In crafting there is certain period of durability for most of the weapons, tools and armor. It`s called item durability and the aforementioned items have limited period of use. Some of the partly worn-out item can be repaired, simply by combining two damaged items into one less damaged one.

Server Addresses for Minecraft

              
The server address for Minecraft is the IP address that a player enters when he/she connects to a Minecraft Multiplayer server. Players may need a download, called hamachi, and afterwards they can go to the specific server or host.
Let us remind you, that playing Minecraft doesn`t need any specific game background. Setting up a server takes some time and you may need some technical knowledge. Hosting and playing on the same computer does not matter at all, unless you have slow connection or PC. It`s not recommended to have number of players on wireless connection, and Minecraft gurus recommend Ethernet instead. When you decide that you do not want to host anymore game of Minecraft, but you still want to play online, check out the Minecraft server options in the game forums.


There are multiply types of Minecraft servers. The variety depends on the gameplay features, rules and society structures. Many of the Minecraft servers rely on the use of distinguished map editors, custom maps and Craftbukkit software, which provides astonishing game features. Many players want to own and create their own servers, but there is another option- to rent a server. Sometimes it`s better option for any Minecraft freak, in case if the server can`t handle the number of players you want to play online. If you need such an option, check out the best hosts on Internet, or find them in the Minecraft forum sections in the game`s devoted sites.
Many of the Minecraft gurus warn the new game users, as some sites can attract hackers and griefers. So if a person finds one site suspicious, the best solution is to leave it. Some resources say that there will be an option to make small servers in the future with the Realms option, but it will cost some money.
