I am going to be honest, this doesn’t have anything about playing Minecraft multiplayer survival. I was going to have it be about Minecraft multiplayer survival, but for that I would have to set up a server. It is ridiculously hard to set up your own server. You even need to mess with the code to make it work! In the end, I just used an online site called Minehut to set it up. I highly suggest it if you want a Minecraft server, because it is free and super easy to set up. Link here:
Honestly, Minecraft survival is super fun to play with friends, because you can go on adventures together, exploring mining, and fighting. My favorite thing to do in it is to give yourself 10 pieces of bread each and go 1000 blocks in another direction. Then what you do is work your way back, foraging and mining. It is also good for discovering villages, deserts and gravel biomes, which you need later in the game. Another fun thing I have found is to prank your friend. My favorite one goes like this:
Find friends house
Take all materials to better location, where you build them a new, bigger house and store materials
Rig their old house with TNT
Bring them to their house saying you have surprise
Watch them literally go ballistic
Show them new house
(Note: only use if you know that they don’t like their old house)
It is a funny prank if your friend has a good scene of humor. If they don’t, install this fail safe to guarantee you safety:
Amass large amount of TNT, and redstone repeaters
Dig holes around the land and in bases, make sure they all connect
Fill up holes with TNT
Make HUGE repeater clock, and put a piston next to the TNT that it would activate with a kill-switch on surface hidden put you know where it is
Give redstone signal to first repeater, effectively making time-bomb
Once you are in danger, use bomb as a negotiating chip for your safety
(Warning: THIS IS A JOKE DO NOT ACTUALLY MAKE THIS)
I feel like with those two tricks you are well on your way to becoming a meglom- I mean great multiplayer player! If anyone has a request for a game to be reviewed, leave a comment below!
