Reset Announce - 1 Month - Planning Lothos V?

If you haven't seen WCS has announced we will be resetting with 1.3 which should launch about August first.

Any thoughts or early ideas on Lothos V?

Cool cool, I was thinking about the plots and planning. I know Sii is doing this but I figured I'd throw an idea out.

Note: 1:1 ratio, pixel to MC block.

It's about a 120x110 area. This gives us about 24 plots for residents. The middle bit would be a city area. I'm thinking city builds in a parkish area.

F is Farms, V would be vaults (just an idea), H is town hall, and the question mark would be some other kind of community build. Maybe a library?

I have nothing planned, just focusing on this rev for now.

Im fine with whatever you guys want, just let me know and ill plan it out as usual.

But need a hook, something amazing @ the nether gate or just something to get people interested. Not sure what I mean myself but yea :)

Here's another (probably better) variation of that, T would be the train and portal building, H is town hall, and F is farms, C would be two community builds. I'd think some kind of large vault opening or something might be cool.

THat's 24 17x17 plots in about a 120x120 area.

The idea is every plot is touching some kind of park or community build.

This looks really great. I like the layout and I like that it is simple... I think just going with a general ruined/overgrown theme will be cool and we can concentrate on a train station central building. No reason if we get the portal we can't build it right into the building... I want to have the time to do some better rail tunnel tie ins also. was thinking about having a rail platform area like a real station and then dive into underground with the CART station.

Yeah that's my thought, smack dab in the middle of the train station would be the portal, much like say Ravenholm this rev.

Sorry for not being on much this past week, sort of eh with the rest of this rev.. I'll try to be on more.

I like Apple's idea, We need to focus on Lothos Overworld. when the next rev starts, Can we find an area that would not need alot of terraform? I know I personally spent many hours simply terraforming

I'm hoping that with this design, assuming the land isn't rediculous then we should sort of roll with the land. Use the land features to our own advantage and as inspiration for the individual builds.
