Building The Ultimate Starter Base! | Minecraft Forever Episode 2

[@Zapadoo12]

You guys are too good to me! Thank you to each and everyone of you! ❤ I also now have discord if you want to dm me or keep updated on future videos! - discord.gg/EefQdcUU

[@allissabrown5031]

@@Zapadoo12 no thank you. For uploading these great videos lol

[@sinankaradogan4832]

Tip: Iron becomes rarer the lower you mine. Mining at y16 or on mountains are the ideal places. I saw that you made a lot of strip mines and complained about the lack of iron-that's why. P.S. Don't be surprised at the support you're getting, your authenticity in sharing this experience with us is extremely rare, and we all love it!

[@Zapadoo12]

I think I made the iron branch at 15 or something. There was just so much water! 😅 Thank you for the kind words, means alot!

[@JoseRamirez-h6z]

Facts!🔥

[@nnjjuz]

i love the no music in the bg. makes it feel like we’re on a facetime call and you’re just sharing your screen lol. i love this series so far!

[@Zapadoo12]

😊 thank you

[@Ann_Duke]

You are doing just fine, keep doing you.

[@Zapadoo12]

Always!

[@judahRC]

So cool you name your dog after me love the channel keep it up

[@Zapadoo12]

:)

[@PsyWolf84]

I absolutely love the steady pace and humbled honesty with your vids. It's also good to see another Aussie gamer. 😊

[@Zapadoo12]

Glad you enjoy it!

[@owenhodgson8035]

I'm loving your videos. I'm an Aussie grandpa in Thailand playing MC with my grandkids in Oz. The foxes leave the fish they kill in the river, a bonus food source.

[@SleepyEvelynn]

Also, I think time-lapses would be really cool for when you build things, that way we can still see the process.

[@Zapadoo12]

Ill look into it. Not too sure if my pc can handle it but its a good idea! :)

[@dawnhill31]

I struggle with building too. I LOVE the diorite floor and brick floors in the storage room! The new pale oak stuff is great too if you find any.

[@TheWealthyWombat]

I like how relatable your video was! I watch some starter base vids and get somewhat overwhelmed with their definition of “starter”!

[@Zapadoo12]

Same here, I also get so demotivated.

[@dailydino6061]

These episodes are the only thing getting me through finals week! Also, if you want to get the cows back to your base, the Trial Chambers have slime spawners that could get you some good slimeballs for leads! But honestly you could also just wait for a wandering trader or use wheat to attract them! Can’t wait for episode three!

[@its4_fusion]

Oh my god, I am actually stressing abt finals too, I am so tense abt my theology final and these vids, are relaxing me lol

[@Zapadoo12]

So good to hear! Hope they go well for you both, and thanks for the tips!

[@sinankaradogan4832]

@@its4_fusion May God be with you in your Theology finals...

[@GalactryxGaming]

that basement looks great! maybe add a smallish lava farm in one of the corners for some fuel when you get some dripstone?

[@Zapadoo12]

Love the idea!

[@rashalonzo]

This is the first time I've ever been this interested in a small youtuber's video, I see potential at your work!! I also lovee the fact that you thanked your audience so many times in the video, I cannot count.

[@christinedelange5288]

I actually love this series already, cant wait for ep 3!

[@NMPstorm]

This is absolutely beautiful i really like how you used the lanterns instead of torches bc most of the time i use torches and dont know how to craft laterns and its one of the best worlds ive ever seen. Well done!!!

[@Zapadoo12]

Thanks!

[@StarrChild.]

Looking forward to this series. You have a natural confidence with the mic and talking so the episodes are a joy to watch.

[@Zapadoo12]

Thanks for watching and the support! Means a lot!

[@thecitybeyond-re9sn]

I just caught up on both episodes and it’s been really fun so far! Looking forward to more!

[@Zapadoo12]

Appreciate you!

[@CodenameMeleon]

It's my shack! Dark oak fences and leaves make great small trees as well. Also not sure if you consider it "cheating" but you can use the debug stick to get your flumes looking how you want.

[@JoseRamirez-h6z]

Loved your video bro, try removing a window or make a window smaller so you can add solid walls to give you space to add shelves and tables. Spruce trap doors and stairs are great for that. I'll be waiting for more videos bro

[@Zapadoo12]

Good idea! I always default to windows and then have the problem of not knowing how to use the space.

[@JoseRamirez-h6z]

Miss you already bro, i can't wait for your next video. Love you brotha🔥🔥🔥

[@maddiew7601]

Came back for episode 2 and was not disappointed! Love the new additions to your base, keep it up!

[@TimothyMcmahan-vz6sg]

Keep up the good work it’s been a pleasure to watch

[@Zapadoo12]

Thank you!

[@bomberproductions296]

Love the "garage", typical Aussie garage, well played lol. Another quality vid, keep em coming mate

[@s3n199]

Its really surpising that a starting YT Creator can be so entertaining to watch. I also suggest that u should try a medieval building style since your builds looks like it

[@s3n199]

I also suggest for u to use shaders/texture packs to make the game more alive

[@s3n199]

Sorry i just started watching ur first episode and i didnt know u mostly play on bedrock so forget that i suggested that u add shaders😅😅 i also play on bedrock too. But i suggest that u use txture packs😊

[@Zapadoo12]

My PC is just not the best unfortunately but I will experiment for sure. :)

[@aquilschutte]

The basement looks really good

[@Got_Em-1]

I love this series, I saw the first episode on my FYP and after finishing it I instantly sent it to my friend and he loved it too. Keep up the good work.❤

[@Zapadoo12]

Thank you so much! That's so good to hear!

[@ludus9128]

Happy to see another episode, having a Minecraft series from a new creator who's not screaming at the top of their lungs is refreshing. The quality is really good for how new the channel is. One thing to recommend, experiment with slabs, you can do some really cool things with them, combining them with stairs can make some interesting designs too :D

[@Zapadoo12]

Good to hear! I will experiment with more slabs for sure. Cheers!

[@HettycTracyn]

Loving the videos so far! Good pacing, decent building, and humble…

[@ArtemisH2454]

Someone probably already mentioned this, but building path ways as well to connect everything like the basement to the stairs or the stairs to the front. Or house to the path down will help with world building to show how traveled it is. Or later on from build to build

[@ArtemisH2454]

defiantly subbing. Love the relaxed style. Maybe try adding time lapses as well with like the material gathering, I know some people prefer those. Anyways love the videos

[@Zapadoo12]

Love the path idea! I'll look into time lapses, hopefully my PC can handle it.

[@ChessieFan5940]

This series is starting to grow on me, sort of reminds me of the earlier videos from Stampy’s Lovely World, keep up the good work.

[@heylormammy]

I just discovered your channel yesterday and subscribed immediately. You keep saying you are not a good builder, I disagree. I love all the ideas you have come up with so far, especially your storage room, it's lovely.

[@Zapadoo12]

Thank you! :D

[@TheHappynstuff]

I enjoyed your first video so I came back. You are fun to watch.

[@Zapadoo12]

Welcome back!

[@judahRC]

A good cow pen is a 5 by 5 pit two blocks down but one block in the middle and then you can sprint jump out but the cows can't get out And it's really easy to get the cows in

[@femhorror]

Been needing a more chill survival series to watch for ages! Definitely going to keep up with future episodes

[@Meejotravel]

I really like to see a slow pace minecraft video, thank you for sharing your content!

The zombies spawning in the one dark spot is what lets mob farms work, because it forces the mobs that’d usually spawn all over to spawn where you want…

[@keadawg1521]

I think the fence above the blast furnace is nice

[@sherripena1317]

Finding these 2 videos while I'm stuck in bed sick was honestly the best thing to happen. Congrats on all the progress, views, and subs. Hope many more to come in the future. 💙

[@Aron21cuc]

I like your first and second episodes and you can make a attic for storage

[@AnkitVashisht-l4q]

Your building sense is great 👌, keep growing man

[@cristelacrem6945]

Love your vids🎉 thats why I subbed

[@HettycTracyn]

One thing I find useful for strip mining is after I do a decent sized area, I clear out the remaining blocks (resulting in whatever ores were missed above or below, and a lot of blocks!)

[@Zapadoo12]

That's genius! I have never thought of that.

[@gothmelody]

only 2 episodes in and i already know im gonna love this series 💀

[@LivySmith-d9w]

Great video, this are fun to watch! Looking forward to seeing more! (:

[@Dmarkea315]

This was enjoyable! And very sweet, thank you for making this!

[@ma8x3r]

you should replace some of the grass infront of your base with cobblestone or path blocks to make a path

[@Zapadoo12]

Will do!

[@damianhills1533]

Use the cartograhy table to zoom your map out. Map in top slot and paper in bottom slot and zoom it out up to 4 or 5 times if you want. I usually zoom it out 3 times and is perfect for me. It only takes one piece of paper each time rather than 8.

[@Zapadoo12]

@damianhills1533 Ahh you are a legend! Thanks :)

[@allissabrown5031]

This is my new fav series to watch. I subbed on your first video cos I enjoyed it that much. Keep it up 🫂

Your videos are really calming to watch. Keep it up! They're well made, too. 😌 i wish you well.

[@Zapadoo12]

Thank you

[@bryancolx]

you could also use a mix of deepslate and spruce wood stairs for the walkway down

[@Zapadoo12]

Love it!

[@alvinstrunk7095]

If you can get some Birch trees and turn the logs to Burch blocks and lay them down for me it gives the feel of a patterned carpet or at least a textured floor.

[@Zapadoo12]

Oooh nice, ill check that out!

[@its4_fusion]

Your videos really inspired me to create minecraft content! I am working on episode 2 right now, and I really thank you for giving me this inspiration! I am also really happy to be your 18th sub(and I'm jealous of your accent lol)

[@Zapadoo12]

Ill check you out! I wish I had a different accent tbh! 😆

[@Stygmah]

I'm spending so much time watching sick little let's plays from small creators I'm barely playing 😂🎉 Also I think you're a much better builder than you think you are.

[@Zapadoo12]

Thank you! 🙏🙏

[@RINK0]

These are really interesting. Love the videos. You inspired me to start a world of my own. I'll definitely be watching all of the episodes. Another thing i like is that we have the same amount of minecraft knowledge.

[@Zapadoo12]

Thanks heaps for taking the time to watch and I'm glad you enjoyed it! :)

Sick video brother love and support for your series keep up the work 🫡

Thanks man, appreciate it!

[@ma8x3r]

i see you got rid of the brick floor, keep it up man!

[@pickaxenerd]

Amazing video! Loving your content so far, Could you name your dog after me??? That would be awesome. Also with the roof of the house, you can always add a trim around the roof of a different deepslate block to add more texture :)

[@Zapadoo12]

Great idea! Thank you!

[@cjusa2005]

I like your new world

[@DKCgame]

First here! Thanks for keeping this up Zap!

[@Zapadoo12]

Thanks man!

[@realFORT_CO]

Here a some suggestions, 1. Maybe stream some of your gameplay then upload it to yt so you can chat with viewers real time. 2. Make a campfire set up using buttons as little stones and signs on the side of the chairs/log seats and put hay under the campfire making the smoke go way higher so you won’t get lost 3. Try not to abandon your starter house unless you need to as you can add onto it eventually making your own town/village. 4. You could build a barn or farm for animals instead of building fancy, fast animal farms. Thanks if you use my ideas and shout me out and thank you if you don’t as this is already an amazing series, looking forward to it and also if you ever have a animal named after me, name it Corb/Corbyn. ❤

[@Zapadoo12]

Amazing ideas! Don't worry if I use them ill shout you out for sure!

[@dittymargoo]

There's no reason why you can't have two or more homes. One for livestock and farming, second for mining etc, they just require afk or finding something else to do in the area. Minecraft does keep your spawn chunks loaded, it's why people would build iron farms in their spawn area. Just bare in mind that only somethings keep going in those chunks and spreading out isn't a bad thing for lag either.

[@Zapadoo12]

Yeah I'm definitely going to build all the farms a decent distance away. Even just the noise is enough to go insane over!

[@MelleWibb]

Never stop

[@RestDay-zv1ok]

Keep it up 👍

[@imbwad]

Looking good Zap!

You could use the boat to bring back animals bro till you find a wandering trader to kill for leads then you can lead a boat or two villagers , animals easy to bring back

[@Zapadoo12]

Nice!

[@Memery07]

subscriber 42 here 🙂 great video you got better luck in the mines then I do but it cool your naming buildings and animal after commenters but you can also make a commenter wall of some people that commented

I have an idea for a milestone that can include all subscribers ;)

[@johndavidlynn8653]

Just make a water elevator to your mine.

(maybe too much, but exploring some QoL mods is interesting)

[@ktbaggins9445]

The tube-gods showed me your channel just in time for this episode. I had a great time watching, so I subscribed. Bit of advice, as a fellow Aussie, when you inevitably end up swearing in a stressful moment, and someone complains, your response should always be; I'm Australian. We're a bit sweary. It's a cultural thing. 🤣

[@Zapadoo12]

Haha! It's an inner battle for sure. Especially when playing a game.
