CHAPTER I

      THE BASICS

      Be informed. If you are new to Minecraft, the very first tip you should follow before you jump to PvP gameplay is to know everything you possibly can about Minecraft. If you don’t know the basics – such as how to move, craft, farm, and build - losing is a very likely outcome.

      Try a “peaceful” game first. Given the point above, before you engage in virtual combat, you might want to play under peaceful terms first. Or better yet, play in creative mode where the main concern is building stuff. Then you can try your hand at survival mode where you need to fend off, run from, be invisible to, or fight hostile mobs (AI monsters). When you already have the hang of it, proceed to playing PvP.

      Which Minecraft version are you playing? Have you just discovered Minecraft? You should know, then, that this game has a number of versions out in the market and is already available in various platforms – from personal computers to gaming consoles and tablet computers. Make sure that you know which one you’ll be playing to avoid confusion. While the structure of the game remains practically the same – you’ll be creating and destroying blocks in a 3d environment – certain elements change from one version to another.

      Do research on your enemies. This doesn’t refer to other players – not yet, at least – but to hostile characters you might encounter in the game. As with other games, Minecraft NPCs or non-player characters are either passive or hostile. If you want to be more particular about the classification, though, the game basically has 6 classes of computer-generated characters or mobs, namely: passive, utility, neutral, tamable, regular hostile, and unique hostile. The first four classes are generally passive and consist of the following: villagers, pets, animals that can be hunted for food, player-created characters such as golems, and the infamous enderman. The last two classes, on the other hand, are hostiles that you should be familiar with if you want your character to survive.

      Know how multiplayer works. There are two ways by which you can take part in a multiplayer Minecraft game: you can either join or set up a server. If you’re playing with friends and you’re tasked to do the latter, there are a lot of guides online that will help you navigate through any set-up and hosting issues you might encounter.

      Have the best possible computer set-up. Minecraft is notoriously RAM-hungry, so before you agree to a PvP game, you should first check your computer’s specs. The minimum system requirements are easy enough to meet, but if you want a seamless gaming experience, you should go for a computer with a fast processor, a good graphics card, and a 4 GB RAM or higher. Skipping this tip might cause lags which can mean the death of your in-game character.
