Hey guys lukethedude here

I just want to know what the first thing you guys do in minecraft ( modded or non ) I start by of course chopping wood
Then I go mining and grab as much gold iron copper silver and coal I can. Then I start to work on some steam dynamos and power up energy cells to power up my pulverizer and furnace.

You're turn.

The absolute first thing I do on every new map is explore. I look for a location to where I will be spending the next couple weeks industrializing and making my base of operations.

Food can usually wait a while for me. I can hunt down and kill wildlife to sustain myself until my base is a bit more established.

It's only once I find myself having to travel quite far afield to find more to kill that I start planting crops. That is unless I come across a village with crops I can blag or a zombie randomly drops a potato for me.

95% of the time:
"E", "NEI Options", "Inventory", "Cheatmode", "Creative+", fly around checking out the seed. Close the world down, delete world, generate new world :p

I do this as well, looking for my "perfect" starting situation... 1) a 13 block diameter Natura Redwood. 2) a village accessible without too much travel, and 3) any other structures I can pillage.

All after opening plundering my Cheat Chest, of course... :D

I do have to add I use the starter chest XD and if I get a seed where down is snow its gone. I usually go for a Plains or forest build.

I'll even take Zombies dropping rotten flesh to make Monster Jerky from.

I start every game almost entirely the same nowadays. I punch a tree or two for the wood, make a crafting table, make a wooden pickaxe, dig out around 20 pieces of cobblestone, make stone sword/pick/shovel/axe and a furnace, then I go from there.
