Hey guys, it's Drew. So I know all the devs are super busy so don't put this on your to do list. Put it on like, your 'to do after your to do' list.
I've just noticed that once you get 100 blocks out on the mining world spawn, it's a bit like a barren waste land. You have to have a boat to get out places, and even then you have to go pretty far. I just feel like it should not be that difficult to get wood, especially for newbies.
I also often find that by the time I reach someplace that hasn't been picked over, night time comes and all the mobs come out and kill me, because I haven't had time to make a house or craft a sword. Plus, if you build a base that's anywhere reachable, it's gonna get grieved.
So I propose that maybe every week or month we wipe mining world and restart it. That way there aren't gaping holes surrounding you everywhere.
I'm not sure if anyone's suggested this already or not, but I apologize if they have.
Thanks,
Andrew L.
