Feed the Beast

Will we ever get a feed the beast server?

It's a bit like Tekkit (It's a mod pack) but it's got the author of the mods' permission so it would be updated more frequently. It hasn't got all the mods that tekkit has, but it has quite a lot more mods, with more being added as time goes on.

I think it'll be a really good replacement of the Tekkit server because not many people play on it.

 

It doesn't have EE2, which turns it from 'awesome, use FTB instead of Tekkit!' all the way down to 'utterly terrible'.

 

Not really that happy with FTB until they get their shit together and don't keep doing stuff like:

Also waiting for redpower 2 to be included.

And if we do get a server, absolutely on whitelist. So much crap that will need to be checked for working permissions/protections

Edit:

FTB will NEVER have EE2, however, will have EE3, which is some regards is drastically different (and still in pre-release).

 

I know that. But EE3 sucks anyway. It defeats the whole point of EE - nay, Tekkit / FTB. For me, that is.

 

No, it returns to the core of EE. Equivalent Exchange is about being able to exchange items for other items with the same equivalence. It was never about having a factory which can produce any item with an EMC value from nothing, just by it sitting there. Nor is it about flying around with godlike powers.

 

Maybe so. But for me, it is.

 

FULL METAL ALCHEMIST!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

LEARN THE FIRST RULE OF ALCHEMY!

 

This sounds like a good idea and I agree with Mysteryem with regards to FTB's security issues and EE3 and Redpower 2. I don't know how I'd survive without Redpower, I've come to rely on it too much.

 

I'm disappointed the thread title wasn't a euphemism

 

Forestry is damn awesome, and I really like steve's carts and railcraft combination

I'd be all for this, hopefully if redpower is implemented

 

I really miss Forestry from Tekkit :/

 

Redpower 2 is supposed to be an 'after christmas' release. Apparently, there was only one or 2 main bugs that needed fixing back then, so I don't think it should be long. It also has the newer versions of buildcraft which have a bunch of new features, such as the architect's table which is like the template drawing table, but it remembers the blocks used. And path marks, allowing you to repeat the construction with a builder, along a 3 dimensional path.

There are also panels you can place over pipes (like covers and pneumatic tubes) and redstone power/logic that can be placed along pipes.

 

You know, I never really delved to deep into forestry mod but everything I have done with it is fantastic

 

As Jindo suggested the MindCrack FTB mod pack already has a prerelease of redpower 2. So maybe we could start a MindCrack server? Probably the biggest difference between MindCrack and Direwolf is the lack of Mystcraft in MindCrack, but MindCrack has Twilight Forest and Direwolf doesn't and the fact that MindCrack has GregTech, which does a lot of changes (you'll probably refer to NEI showing you the recipes for everything)
Here are a list of the other modpacks and their mods:

MindCrack Pack v6 mods (for 1.4.6):

Particular notes:
No Mystcraft
Has Traincraft (no idea what it is)
Has Twilight Forest (bosses, an entire world and more)
Has Advanced Solar panels instead of compact solar panels (compact was in tekkit)
Has Gregtech mod
Direwolf20 Pack v3 mods (for 1.4.6):

Particular notes:
Has Mystcraft
Compact solar panels instead of advanced solar panels
Magic World v5 mods (for 1.4.5):

Universal Electricity v9 mods (for 1.4.5):

Also, there is a brony modpack.

Edit:
And Finally...
The guys at technic have released Tekkit Lite which is essentially a tekkit collection of mods for SMP, but updated to 1.4.6
Mods:

 

I don't mind either, but if we're going with MindCrack edition..
