History of this world:
This survival series started on July 10th 2014 on the MCPE (Minecraft Pocket Edition) App. I had quite a few MCPE videos before this series that I recorded and edited on the iPod 4th Generation. When I finally upgraded to the iPhone 5, this was when I wanted to start a Minecraft series that will last forever! I started this series on the iPhone 5 and eventually upgraded again to the iPhone 6 Plus for more power on Ep.66. MCPE on the iPhone 6 Plus served me well for a long time until the game started updating more and became even slower. This was until I bought myself a gaming laptop (Lenovo Y700) and transferred my ongoing MCPE world to Windows 10 Edition on Ep.154. Till this day, we are still surviving and thriving with builds in this world and plan to do so far into the future!

[@dallasmed65]

I hear slight popping throughout the video, sorry about that. Have no idea what it is. Oh the joy of content creation.

[@Conlfer]

love u man

[@zambigaming8910]

The crane looks like a gun😂

[@happygecko]

Don’t worry about it the video was great

[@nickelodeonstuff1572]

no worries bro love the city being built great vids am a new sub

[@Lordsam_catkingissocool]

the contaners remind me of ready player ones slums i think u should make more things like that movie

[@blu_jgamer939]

Making the piglin lair like a casino lair type of building would be really cool, it would fit with the whole bartering idea of the piglins

[@jacobwood4937]

that's such a good idea

[@ioanis6718]

It could have a piglin criminal underground base under the casino like the team rocket in Pokemon Red and Blue

[@esssss8415]

An underground smuggling gambling type place would be so cool

[@Podiablo]

Looking at the city at night in the rain with the neon signs I get a blade runner feel.

[@cincaisoya]

It's amazing how much Dallas can build in a single episode now, the ideas and excitement filled in his head really motivate him to keep on going expanding his world and entertaining us. Really appreciate that.

[@EzBricks_]

Dallas knows how to really set the mood for videos with the music 😆

[@elliotgandersen]

So true!

[@LyndlEndique]

Yo, I noticed that, too. Like when he was touring the lab, the music in the background is subtle and intentional. Really adds to our viewing experience. Thank you, Dallas :)

[@dustypeanut1425]

I can’t wait for all the different districts in this city

[@nillabiscuit2555]

i started watching the videos about 20 or so episodes ago, and im rather upset i hadnt stumbled across your channel sooner, watching your content is a calming experience and your world is inspiring. keep it up and im very excited for more

[@gabrielgarciac.8585]

I love how this project is turning out, its so impressive how it looks right now and how fast the progress is! Hope you build a huge skyscraper at some point, one that dwarfs the rest of the city :b

[@gardenharmony]

CQOTD: Since we are nearing 10 years of this series, how do you feel that people like myself have grown up with you, and even have nostalgia for your older videos? And what are your plans for the world's 10th anniversery?

[@Eskimo_entertainment]

i like the idea of the shipping containers what if there was a cargo ship on its side with poor people using it as a central point and the containers as personal homes. I think this fits since the land is a bit farther down then the rest so it seems like a dried up area.

[@DFWRailVideos]

I would love to see a metro system with Minecarts built into your city. You could use it for underground passenger transport AND for the chest minecarts that are transporting items. You could even connect it to the Lab and show how the world's workers get from the city to their workplaces, or damage it up and make it look like it was mismanaged and was allowed to grow over, but service continues anyway. Love the city building! Keep it coming.

[@joeypeoples1115]

At the mouth of the canal make it look like a ship wrecked and that’s what has caused all of the containers to be reused by the people of the slums. Love your content dallas I could watch this city build for the next couple of years

[@sohmmm]

The idea of abandoned shipping containers rather than just small ragged homes is such a cool idea for slums in this city. Just a field of abandoned shipping containers in a valley, and people living in it is just so cool.

[@ivanfernando6804]

The wall, the abandoned containers, and the idea of social division are brilliant! At first, I'm not too into the whole dystopian city thing, but as the series went on, I can see that this project has a lot of potential.

[@HoneyDustTheReal]

I know i say it very often but it is very true that every time i see a new video i am really excited because it will of course be amazing, and wow the recent ones are just astonishing, the part where you wandered i the city with the rain and the night kicking in was peak minecraft beauty. Can't wait to see where this project goes, and seeing all the people commenting so many good ideas for the city brings me joy because i think that here we are all involved in this project together with you

[@cdow6980]

For the underground, maybe crystal caves? Or sewers?

[@sinthoras1917]

I fully agree with the power increase thing. I ESPECIALLY want to get a levitation ability (maybe via some potion that can be really expensive, like needing shulker shells or whatever) that could make you levitate like in creative. That would decorating ceilings sooo much easier.

[@noahconner5406]

You should add a broken down train in the tunnel with some squatters in it ! Good video as always btw !👍

[@temmiedud3946]

An idea which I thought would be really cool is if you made a slum style train in the tunnel with a bunch of like houses connected to the back of the train like it’s also a low level trade route throughout the underground of your city

[@elliotgandersen]

With the main city having a huge cavern underneath you could make a under ground city (both literally and metaphorically) haha

[@frankjimogletree6254]

You should definitely make a tunnel from the slums to one of the houses in the city, maybe the apartment that you have your face graffitied on. Maybe the dude that lived there was trying to sneakily save someone who was banished to the slums

[@Will_d_3984]

CQOTD: Is there any cities or other builds that have inspired you for your city build?

[@A2Cheffy]

You should definitely play the game Stray, so much inspiration to gain from the city with all the architecture and lighting

[@dallasmed65]

I've watched people play it. Idk if I'd ever play it though, I do like the style it has

[@A2Cheffy]

@@dallasmed65 it was a fairly quick game took me few days to complete, perhaps on your days off 🫣

[@HintzeDarrin]

CQOTD: Is there any builds that you want to finish in your Main House? Thank you for making amazing content.

[@Oeppeline]

That Slum Idea really grew in a better version throughout the video. Liked to listen to the process :)

[@ajytabbott2004]

This city has been such a cool addition to the world, I honestly have to remind myself sometimes that we're still watching the same world, the city is THAT big and THAT cool looking. Awesome work, Dallas. I actually just built a statue of your skin in my survival world seeing as how you inspire me so much with building ideas.

[@assh9333]

I love your relaxed and calm video, I really do. It’s so peaceful and keep me wanting for more. Thank you so much, make sure to have a wonderful day.

[@NetherTamer]

I think a good idea for the slums would be to still have some houses near the wall but make it seem like most moved back into the forest as the richer people kept dumping crates and other things on top of them.

[@Fierce_Chimera]

What you could think about doing for the slums is have stacks of these shipping crates furbished into homes, but have fauna and plants uncontrolled within the community to show how little the higher ups in the city don't care about the people below the poverty line.

[@tommyzawisza4568]

Dallas, watching videos on this world never gets old. Keep up the good work!

[@MazzyGG]

I am really sick, I have runny nose so watching your episodes has been cheering me up. I hope I get better! ❤

[@MazzyGG]

Thank you Dallas for hearting my comment!

[@orenjiTK]

I'm just really glad that dallas have his groove to pump us out more content and still enjoying the game. 😊

[@gobbletwinsv9141]

dalles i know you really liked your train design. you should put that coming out of the tunnel and maybe put tents and things along the sides or something. but the train could be shipping containers to your canal

[@dallasmed65]

Well, if I wanted that train there, the tunnel would have to be as high as the wall is. It’s a big train. I’ll probably make it somewhere else

[@Conlfer]

I love your vids! I've been here since you were on day 102, ever since I watch you.

[@mattlong02]

i’ve been watching since the first smp with jfm, this is by far my favorite project you’ve done please keep it going.

[@sinthoras1917]

TNT dupers are the best way to quickly dig out large areas. I've recently started building them for a mines of moria style build, and I've been blown away by their easiness to set up and their speed and effectiveness at mining extremely large amounts of blocks

[@feb8153]

I think that a container field is a great idea for this new area, since it's connected to the ocean by the canal. Also, in the ocean you could build a giant container ship and smaller boats which carries the containers to this new area

[@sarahwright6667]

That is an amazing idea.

[@Arty_Apple_Bee]

The wall looks so good. By the way making part of the slums just huge towers of crates where people live is a great idea, a bit like the movie Ready Player One !

[@hiimz]

I'm loving this city man... and I agree with you on the advanced tool mechanic whether that be a tool like the "Hammer" or an enchantment for the pickaxe. I feel this HAS to be the next progression for Minecraft tools/enchantments as they have not re-invented the wheel in a while. Efficiency V + Beacon was huge but it feels that was ages ago. We NEED MOAR TY FOR ADVOCATING MY G.

[@kiro_icedemon]

IDEA: The reason the slums exists is because you have it based around a villager emerald farm. That being said, it's all surrounded by the fact that you steal their main source of currency in order to survive in said slums.

[@redactimation5020]

Hey Dallas, I think It would be awesome if you added some kind of dystopian monorail system into the city (doesnt have to be functional) for the residents to use since there are no cars!

[@sinthoras1917]

That sounds really cool

[@katherinehy42069]

with the shipping containers and the cranes and etc, it really reminds me of what i picture when i read the dystopian shatter me series

[@l4stfullmxxn765]

Loving the city progression, I just started following this series and I’m obsessed with the creativity and effort you’re putting into it! Have you ever studied city planning and skyline planning? I think for the future of the city when you’re able to put in some more structures on way larger scales you’ll have to think about how you want it to look in the distance!

[@gunnerenblom9784]

You could add a section of the tunnel for nuclear waste disposal maybe it is used to power the upper city and they just dump it in the slums.

[@HdeBus_05]

You should build some watchtowers and put some barbed wire along the top of the wall, makes the rest of the city look more fortified from the slum. Maybe some security check points too

[@sinthoras1917]

If you want to make the wall look really really dystopian, you can add watchtowers somewhere on or in front of the wall, from where guards can watch and possibly shoot the poor people

[@Nero_256]

I am already starting to get night city vibes from this city project...Keep on going Dallas

[@KillianPorritt]

Episode two of suggesting the idea of a old and broken down lumber mill in the city with a automatic tree farm

[@sanchobama]

Would be cool to have a checkpoint between city areas where you have to pay to get though. Like you have to pay 1 emerald to get from slums to the industrial area, and 1 diamond to get to the rich area

[@the2ndmatt538]

here is an idea for yah, if you want populate the city easy, make a villager breeder underground and send the babies up to the surface at different places.

[@edan7813]

Dallas, I think as your town expands you should make an underground subway station and maybe an above ground train station as well

[@TyTy-cv9bh]

The shipping container area could be like the slums from ready player one if you’ve ever seen the movie. I’m super excited to see how they turn out.

[@SnakeYT67]

I found this dude out of nowhere and i cant stop watching him. also great video dallas👍

[@bordmf12]

now that you have that creeper farm there still is another power level for excavation 😈

[@BillyThe45th]

You are building up a area with lots of shipping containers so maybe the canal could be used for ships to get back to that new industrial zones to load

[@roughairsoft7306]

I have checked your channel 5 + times for a video in the past 2 days love you dallas

[@stiivnquatt3960]

You can use a grindstone facing downward to attach the chains to the cranen : 7:40 I think it could make it better

[@davidmart101]

love the new city builds

[@ArthurMarrero]

you can put grafitti in those walls close to where you built the crane and inside the tunnel too

[@HKpanzer]

Lets Go!!! Yeah, the mad crazy scientist died in the abandoned factory, but im okay with that. You did say if the villager died, thats it. I mean if its cool, how about putting a journal in that room detailing some kind of work that the villager did and died from idk radiation. Its up in the air as this is your world, and we're here to experience it.

[@dallasmed65]

If you’re Ryan, I’m gonna give you another one somewhere. I just forgot to keep the lights on in that room

[@HKpanzer]

Cool, it's all good.

[@Aliaux]

am I the only one that gets Dallas' videos first thing on my recommended as soon as he uploads?

[@spiritgaming1442]

You should add some destroyed versions of the robots around your world. Maybe some larger robots that helped build the city but were discarded after they were either no longer needed. With little houses inside the robot bodies. Perhaps policing robots around the slums aswell.

[@freddy_raspberry]

the city wit rtx and rain b reminding me of the village hidden in the rain from naruto.

[@zeeyflores]

Nothing like a future build in mind maybe extend the Sewers to the city ?

[@ch33zy15]

This starting to be one of my favorite build series keep up the great work🤙🏻

[@Definitely_not_in_your_walls]

Have you thought about doing a run down casino in the city? Maybe with one of those old signs hanging over the road falling apart.

[@eclipse4446]

Do you mean like Coruscant from Star Wars but on a smaller scale

[@Definitely_not_in_your_walls]

@@eclipse4446 yeah, when you see the architecture of Coruscant during the Empire, it's that really Brutalist look, but with elements of futuristic looking things like the neon lighting at the nightclubs and things like that

[@Definitely_not_in_your_walls]

Maybe also kind of mixed with like a 50's/60's style

[@raava3097]

you should really consider putting some fire escapes/catwalks for the more barebones exterior buildings. my city has them everywhere. you should also consider putting some shipping crates on the upper level, as if youre giving them those boxes to live in as temporary housing. love the videos

[@CALEBGLEN21]

You should definitely make Ready Player One like shipping container towers with people living in them with janky ladders and stairs to get up and down, you should also try to make the shipping containers look rusty some how.

[@iainmarx7113]

You should make the shipping container area like the one in Ready Player One I think it would look really cool with all the different stacks!!!

[@SBLwarriors78]

You should make a GIANT stadium/colosseum where events are held

[@ronniebegley558]

As a recommendation for a building I think you should make a clay farm using dripstone making infinite bricks

[@ThatOneIsSus]

Getting stray vibes from this and I love it

[@Georgeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee]

Lol why does the thumbnail just make me laugh with the words ‘The Slums’ in the background

[@StranaHyena]

Given the fact the slums will replace the forest, you could try putting a few dead trees around, perhaps a combination of just a single log (as if you just removed the leaves and did nothing else), and a few custom trees (not too big though, but you could probably have a larger dead tree as a central point). For these dead trees, you could either just use whatever wood you happen to use, or acacia wood, with a mix of greyish blocks for those custom trees (look at one of the recent building with bdubs videos, in some, he has a custom dead tree like that). You could even have dead trees poking through houses / shacks built around dead trees

[@ArthurMarrero]

2:58 This heppens in real life too, when someone gets too rich they seen to feel somewhat like this. Obviouslly in real life tehy can continue to get richer, but it gets to a poind where monney doesn't even matter anymore

[@Slugfucker]

This city is looking phenomenal, great work!

[@kachowgmr23]

turn that tunnel into a sort of poorer market or distopian shopping district

[@beardboiogalt]

Hi dallas! Been watching for a while! my question for you is: would you ever do 100-day challenges within your world?

[@AlphabetMemes1]

CQOTD: Do you think that Minecraft should give us time to learn and explore updates or should we get bigger and/or more frequent ones?

[@neochappell1158]

You could separate the industrial area and poor area with a shipping container wall. Like mismatched containers stacked on top of each other

[@edplaysgames-ej2vh]

CQOTD: Will you ever make any farms that mass produce products like iron, gold, and other important materials? Love ur vids btw!

[@robotbird17]

Is it just me or did I randomly find him and can’t stop watching

[@sinthoras1917]

Setting up a beacon is almost always worth it. Just do it. It'll save you a lot of time

[@Phalcon777]

You could even do some of the storage containers vertical like they've been just dropped off the edge on accident or something when you can try to build like an inside house where someone's took in the small spot and just going to weave their way into it

[@allaboutthegrindEli]

you should make the upper city more bright and colorful to contrast with how the slums will look because tall buildings can still be considered rundown if they look to drab. maybe add a city square or somethings like that. use white colored blocked to build the skyscrapers so its not all just grey

[@Flow_Plays_Minecraft]

Imagine the portal in the ancient city opening up after 5000 in game days, leading to a new dimension with new OP loot and enchantment books.

[@dallasmed65]

And they hid working on that dimension all this time. That would make Minecraft the best game ever haha

[@econenby7076]

So about a 3x3 pickaxe - I definitely agree with you that there is a plateau and it's a weird feeling when you reach it. However, Minecraft has certain rules it abides by in terms of implementing new features - Jeb has talked about this before - and one of them is a "one block rule." As in, you should only be able to affect one block at a time. TNT obviously can destroy many blocks, but you're triggering that reaction via only one block interaction. Similarly with redstone - you can do really complicated contraptions, but it's activated by a lever, or a button, or a redstone torch, etc. I do think there are probably ways to get around this, but they've said pretty explicitly that 3x3 pickaxes or veinmining or whatever will never be implemented. I do think there are most likely ways of abiding by this rule while still not having that plateau (or having that plateau be later), though! Whether you agree with that or not is totally fair! But that's one of the development rules Mojang goes by.

[@LimpGorilla]

for the canal, you should put a bunch of pipes coming out the sides and into the canal to make it look like sewage leaving the city! also the wall reminds me of the Lorax lol Edit: sorry i didnt realize dallas already did that...

[@bummyrabbit950]

8:13 swiper no swiping! 😤😂

[@Zedmuria]

I guess the new goal in Minecraft is Beacons everywhere so than you never have to place them.

[@pathh_]

in the tunnel you should make where all the criminals hang out and black market type deals happen down there

[@dizznotdizzy]

dallas, a potentially useful thing you could do for your LP that i learned from ibxtoycat is putting the episode numbers in the thumbnail but not in the title so that people dont see the number in the title and think that theyve missed a whole bunch. if you take it out of the title and make the ep number smaller and less noticable (but still there) in your thumbnail, people may click on your video and see your amazing builds and everything amazing about your videos and be like "oh this is right in the middle, i should go back and watch some more." just some food for thought!

[@Nba_Obelisk7459]

Love your content, just doing work while watching your videos is a vibe

[@because776]

Hey man, I really gotta say that your content is so inspiring to me! Each time when I’m eating something and I get a recommendation on KZbin to one of your videos I always love to come and see what you’re up to. You are such a peaceful and great person. Oh and by the way, why don’t you build a ship, like a big captain ship either for military purposes or maybe to transport something, I’m not talking about a modern ship tho, but rather an more elderly ship, like from the 1700s

[@idle12]

I wonder how much money your character owns in your world, im just imagining that yor lab would come to the slums and drag people off as test subjects. If you ever build a resodental area i could totally see someones roof top garden be like a getaway from everything in the city. (Sry im ranting a little) the shipping container area reminds me of ready player 1

[@sarahwright6667]

Have you considered making any restaurants or other food places in the city? I have an idea for an ice cream shop called Dallas’s Delights. I just watched episode 541 and I thought it would fit perfectly in the city.

[@comicbooking]

Now im not sure Dallas is going to read my comment but i have an idea; wgat if you made a big building that handles all the city crime, diplomatic issues and city development and i suggest write a small summary of what the history and the development of your city might have been

[@BrunoCosta-jl8uz]

Omg, imagine a big dumping ground somewhere for a bone meal farm or something like that

[@moraelinschlenker8896]

you pronounced my name right! you are part of the 1% lol Also - wow I can't believe I've basically caught up to the end of the series. Your builds are truly inspiring!!

[@IgnDom28]

In the beginning of this video (first 5ish mins) you talk about better tools and the 3by3 block breaking and it gives me vibes of vault hunters. If you don’t know iskall85 and his team made an amazing mod pack that involves running vaults for better gear and stats. I recommend you try it for some good fun for a while :)
