If you\u2019re a die-hard gaming fan, there\u2019s no chance you haven\u2019t heard about Minecraft in all this time. Even if you haven\u2019t ever been a huge fan of the franchise launching different Minecraft games<\/a>, you\u2019re still quite aware of the game. <\/p>\n\n\n
Unlike the other high-end and professional graphic games, Minecraft offers a different kind of gaming experience to the players. As different as it may be, there\u2019s no doubt that it has had millions of players hooked up on it. It makes more sense why Minecraft was a fitting candidate for the world\u2019s most popular game and certainly won the title as well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Launching Minecraft is rather easy. All you have to do is simply purchase and install the game first. After that is done, launch the game and log in using your credentials to get to the main menu. Other than launching the game, it even feels rather easy to start from here but you need to remember some basic things before you make an entrance into the virtual world of Minecraft.<\/p>\n\n\n
As you enter your login credentials and get to the main menu, you are welcomed by a few options. Related to our interest, you will see a Single-Player<\/a> as well as a Multiplayer <\/a>option in the main menu. The multiplayer option allows other Minecraft players to join online and have online matches and battles. Upon choosing Single Player, you get to choose Game Mode before you get to \u201cCreate a New World\u201d. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Just like in real life, you need tools to work in Minecraft as well. The first and foremost thing one needs to do is reach up to a tree and start hitting it till some wood becomes part of your ownership. With the wood that tree just dropped, turn them to planks through the inventory to create a Crafting Bench. Needless to say, it opens up your character to astronomical possibilities too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Apart from just the possibilities, wood is the building block for your shelter and protection as well. The only reason why you wouldn\u2019t be getting wood in the first place is that you want to end the game instantly!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In Minecraft<\/a>, torches have more benefits than just facilitating you with light. At times when you\u2019re out to mine and hunt in the caverns, it tends to get a little too dark. Torches turn out to be extremely helpful in such situations. Most of the time, mines are already lit up with light and don\u2019t necessarily require a torch but having one is rather helpful in many other cases. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Even though digging straight up or down feels like the quickest way to discover and explore the depths of the virtual world of Minecraft, it doesn\u2019t make it the most tactical move. Worst comes worst, it can be an invitation to swift death as well. While digging down, if you hit a mine or cavern, you could potentially fall and die. This doesn\u2019t just end with death but you would also lose all your gears as well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Similarly, digging up doesn\u2019t seem like an easier choice either. In fact, it\u2019s rather riskier. You could hit the water, drown down the shaft and end up having your mine get flooded as well. In other cases, you could potentially find yourself at the tail end of another cave, too. The best way to ensure you don\u2019t end up at a dead-end is to dig in the staircase and also dig all around you from time to time. This not only helps you widen your space but can save you from severe damage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
It\u2019s just as the name suggests. If you want to get your hands on diamonds, you most often have to face the lava before that. Unlike in the real world, gold is semi-rare and a soft metal that doesn\u2019t go a long way. Diamond on the other hand is unique and one of the rarest ores to find in the entire game. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Needless to say, it\u2019s got multiple uses like the player gets to create diamond gears and tools which have the highest level of protection, yield immense damage, and are extremely sturdy too. To find diamonds in the game, one can use the technique called strip mining which is known to be the most efficient when it comes to finding diamonds.<\/p>\n\n\n
As you settle down with a sustainable house, have your inventory filled up with useful tools and many more, you\u2019re probably running low on food supplies and that\u2019s okay. What\u2019s not okay is finding resources to increase those supplies. You can\u2019t continue killing wildlife now and then and picking apples from the trees to fill up on your food supply.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Your hoe has been used and it\u2019s time it does some action rather than lurking in your inventory. Along with the bucket full of water, you can use the hoe to plough grass blocks, and chopping down the grass in the vicinity helps you with finding seeds<\/a>. The rest is the same as how it works in our life. Planting the seeds and watering them thoroughly helps to harvest wheat over time which, upon crafting, can be turned into bread which is a renewable food supply. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Owning a few farms and getting food supplies is convenient but as you continue onwards in the game, you soon realize farms alone don\u2019t make up for the demand. However, there are more ways of getting a consistent and sustainable food supply than farming, picking from trees, and killing wildlife creatures. You\u2019re going to run out of the sources near your base quicker that way.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Alternatively, the best thing that can be done at this point and ensure that the supply is near your base, start luring the wildlife near your base. Use your wheat from the farms to grab the cows\u2019 attention and pull them close to the pen you\u2019ve built for them. Continue to feed and breed them. This not only helps you from running out of food and thus dying due to starvation but consistent breeding yields a sustainable food supply as well. <\/p>\n\n\n
As you play with consistency and continue to level up, your technological tier grows as well. This ultimately means you need to gear up and upgrade your tools as well to smoothen your journey in the game. For example, you might be way past the stone tools you\u2019ve been using for a very long time and require a good and potential upgrade. In case you\u2019ve found a valuable cave already, it\u2019s no big deal. If not, you\u2019re in for another tough journey.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Gathering raw materials should be as essential as finding diamond ores for your tools. If you want to upgrade your lifestyle in the game or give your tools a new upgrade, build a secure and well-founded house, you need material for that. Hunt around for small tan flecks in iron ore blocks and cook them along with coal in your furnace. This is the surefire means of getting iron tools which come in handy a long way through in the game. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
If you don\u2019t own diamond tools, iron tools become a necessity during the gameplay.<\/p>\n\n\n
As you level up in the game and start to solidify your steps in the virtual world, it\u2019s about time you learn about the importance of upgrading your house as well. A player\u2019s self-defense, attack power, and protection definitely matter a lot in order to succeed in the game but it\u2019s a rookie mistake to not amp up the protection for your house. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
It\u2019s a vital responsibility to make sure your house isn\u2019t vulnerable at any point. A wood house is a good house but it\u2019s not safe enough. It\u2019s about time you put your stone reserves in action and convert your wood house into a stone house. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Even though this isn\u2019t the reason why you should make a stone house it starts to look very attractive and beautiful when it becomes replaced with stone. Not only that, it also provides your home with an immense amount of security.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
If you\u2019ve been following through with all these basic and simple things till now and practicing them along the way, you\u2019re ready to go to the \u2018Nether\u2019 world called Nether Fortress in the action-packed strategy-based game Minecraft. When you get engrossed in Minecraft, like expected of every player, you might want to go above and beyond. To cater to your desire, you can go to another dimension in the game and explore the realms of Minecraft that other players just can\u2019t see yet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
However, to be able to get into Nether Fortress, you need to make a Nether Portal, you need to have mined 10 obsidian blocks which are unable to be mined if you don\u2019t own a diamond pickaxe. See, that\u2019s why you have to use diamond resources wisely.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
As you make your way to the Nether Fortress, you\u2019ll be welcomed by lots of lava, zombie pigmen, and ghasts. The reason why many go for this extreme adventure is that an astronomical amount of loot awaits the player in the Nether Fortress. Are you ready for the unforgiving experience of the Netherlands?<\/p>\n\n\n
Getting hooked up right from the first night you play Minecraft is rather common but as easy as it sounds, you\u2019re in for a nightmare too. To make sure your first night at Minecraft doesn\u2019t make you want it to be the last one, make sure that you follow these 15 basic things as you make your way into the virtual world of Minecraft. Once you\u2019ve mastered these things, the rest is all about practice and continually playing different games, using different tactics to see what works the best for you.
