I recently went to minas tirith and the dry dock [preparation] but they were boring and unpopulated. What are these servers for? The dry dock looked griefed on the bridge but when I tried to fix it I couldn't. Why is the minas tirith place so damn big!? It doesn't have any stairs, or passages, or doors either.
The Drydock map is where we staff prepare the next maps for you guys. If it is populated at all, it'll be those few who are working on it.
Minas Tirith is currently a side-project being undertaken by a select few WoMers. Recently it has stalled a bit because of management issues and busy schedules but it is slowly coming along. It has no stairs, passages, etc because it is far from finished and not yet meant to be toured. When it is finished though, it will be without doubt the most epic thing ever to been built in 1x1 blocks.
Both maps are only editable by those of high rank or who have special access.
I think the Minas Tirith map is already above amazing, eventhough it's probably 10% done :D
I was lucky enough to get a little glimpse of it before it was taken offline or made private..and I tell ya.. It's made entirely of awesome! Good luck to those who are badass enough to take on that project.
...why do I have a sudden urge to visit a replica of all of Middle Earth in Minecraft right now?
As a huge LoTR fan, I debated on what part of it I wanted to bring to Minecraft. Minas Tirith was my first choice after having tried my hand on the Minas-Tirith Projec. Linked the video because it has a lot of non-detailed buildings that might help with your minecrafting.
i went to the drydock, it was different and had FINITE water! sweet!
The minas tirith project looked awesome :D It is truly epic, already. I managed to visit it once, and was just blown away by the huge, and seemingly accurate replica of minas tirith!
