diamondjpgThis is my blog post for my modification ideas for Minecraft! This is a post for the Minedeas contest on PlanetMinecraft!diamondjpg



diamondjpgZombie/Goblin Horde Attack!diamondjpg

The idea of this is quite simple, yet complex at the same time. My idea for a zombie horde modification would be some sort of system to have a random horde of zombies or goblins attacking where ever the player is.

The modification would be designed to have either a horde of zombies, or a horde of goblins attacking a user's village, city, home, etc.


The attack would be random, and it would surely test a users abilities to fight to protect themselves and their land.

The horde is designed to attack and break buildings, people, villagers, and of course, the user.

It would make sense for this to happen at night time, but just to make things more creepy, the night sky would have a bit of a red tint to it, and the moon would be full. As soon as the moon is high in the sky, a message would appear saying that the horde is coming. Then after a few seconds, the user would see that lots of zombies/goblins would be rushing over the hills ready to attack.

This would not only test the user's ability to fight, but it would also test how quickly the user can react. There would be no way for the user to know when the horde is coming, and they would also have to make sure that they have enough things stocked up and ready to fight with.

The attack from the horde would last from when the full moon is high in the sky, and would go until the sun starts to rise. Once the sun starts to rise, the horde would either burn up, or retreat back to their hideout.

It would be nice to have another mob added, such as goblins, because using zombies can get boring.


Another addition to this modification would be the zombie/goblin base. If the user finds the base and destroys it, then it would stop the horde from attacking any longer.


This modification would GREATLY change the game play for the user. They would have to keep extra protection because they would never know when the horde is coming, nor would they know where the horde would be attacking from.


I think that this would be amazing for Minecraft users to play with. It adds another layer of fighting that would make the Minecraft game much more of a fighting game. Minecraft is already so much of a design game, along with a survival game, and with this, it would combine fighting and survival with a bit more of scariness.


With this modification, there should be some setting within the menus or the world creation that lets a user choose whether they want the horde or not. They should be able to set the difficulty for the horde as well.

This is already implemented in Minecraft, but only happens around villages.

I haven't really been around villages in the latest Minecraft updates, but do the zombies attack and destroy building materials? I know that they will break down doors, but I have never known of them destroying blocks. And it would be better for them to also attack user created structures.

No, zombie hordes destroy door and doors only, even in villages.

While griefing zombies is a fun idea, rare villages would start to look like swiss cheese. >.< The villager AI would also have to be changed, so they'd be able to fix and possibly build homes.

That's why I said user created structures, and not villages.

Well, it'd take quite a bit of doing to get zombies to differentiate between the two.

That's why it doesn't have to be zombies, but a new mob instead that only attacks user created structures. It would be a mod, so it would take time to get them to know the difference.

As it says in the post, this is for the Minedeas Contest for PlanetMinecraft, where users create a blog about what they would like to see as a modification in Minecraft.
