What is… Hardcore Survival Mode? ▫ The Minecraft Survival Guide (Tutorial Let’s Play) [Part 281]

Hello everyone my name is pics Horace and welcome back to the Minecraft Survival Guide I hope you guys are having a good day today we’re going to do something a little bit different because right now in the Survival Guide series I’m mostly just building up some

More of the mountains that you saw in the previous episodes and right now that’s just taking a lot of work working through all of the stone that I’ve already gathered before we make some sort of automated farm for the stone in the meantime and to be honest I’m not

Sure I can make some great tutorials out of just building mountains over and over again but it’s something I really need to do so today what we’re going to do instead is something that’s been requested in the comments of previous Minecraft Survival Guide series we’re going to take a look at the hardcore

Side of Minecraft a survival mode where you only have one life and I’m going to explain a little bit about what I think about hardcore mode and why I don’t tend to do that all that often in the Survival Guide series so we’re gonna start up a brand new single-player world

We’re gonna go to create new world and we are going to set the game-mode to hardcore as you’ll see here it’s the same as survival mode locked at the hardest difficulty and with only one life I’m not going to do anything to change the world options we’re just

Going to be playing on whatever seed at minecraft gives us and I’m gonna call this world what is hardcore just like the title of this video and this video is gonna hopefully explain a little bit more about that so without further ado we’re going to create a brand new world

It’s been a while since we’ve created a brand new vanilla world and we are not gonna be sticking around on this world for the remainder of the Survival Guide series this is not a reset this is just going to be a one-off episode and here I

Will try and explain why right here we are at a brand new Minecraft well we’re going to do the usual thing punch trees gather wood and then go looking for some supplies but already you will notice one major difference about hardcore and that is the appearance of the health bar

Right down there above the wood that I am now collecting the hearts seem to have a slightly more pixelated appearance to them they haven’t got the lovely shading instead they have this kind of almost like angry eyes look to them and that signifies that we are playing in hardcore mode and that the

Hearts themselves are a little bit more fragile than usual let’s make ourselves a crafting table let’s get into the progression a little bit here and I think we will probably explore this Cave a little bit first now I should also point out the distinction here this

Is not ultra hardcore mode but we will be looking at Ultra Hardcore a little bit later in this episode I think for now we should probably just grab ourselves a little bit of stone from the mouth of this cave check down here to see if there is any early iron which

Would be a massive advantage at this stage or maybe even some cult yes looks like we’ve got some iron there fantastic let’s see if there’s any coal looks like a little bit of iron further up in this cave alright no worries we’ll grab a little bit of stone from around the top

Of the cave here hopefully uncover a little bit of coal and make ourselves a stone pickaxe so we can get some of that iron so part of the reason I haven’t played hardcore in the series before is because it’s not really possible to switch a world to hardcore mode once you

Have started it or I think it probably is possible if you want to go in and edit the options file for your world if you want to edit it so it is in hardcore later but for a tutorial series for me that doesn’t really make a whole lot of

Sense because I want to make sure my world stays around even if I make silly mistakes and I want you guys to be able to see the silly mistakes so that you can learn from them and that isn’t really possible with a hardcore world because once you die in a hardcore world

You have one life that is it the world actually gets deleted after you have finished it or you can keep the world around and view it in spectator mode if you want to but outside of that you really don’t have any option to return to the world and continue where you left

Off and this is one of the aspects that makes hardcore survival kind of intriguing to people because people like the idea of everything being a little bit more realistic and not permanent so you would end up just losing a world as though you only had you know a realistic

Amount of lives in it hardcore is one of those game modes that really make sure you get attached to everything and that you feel a little bit more exposed all of the time you feel a little bit more like you are gonna be in trouble if you don’t find shelter and it’s definitely

Something for the more experienced side of Minecraft because you’re gonna need to take advantage of what you know about the game already which is why I didn’t start off the Minecraft Survival Guide that way because in theory anyone who is watching the Survival Guide series for the first time is basically still just

Learning so right now we’re using charcoal to make torches of course which is another thing that is kind of useful to know in hardcore if you can’t find coal immediately because if you want to do any caving whatsoever we’re going to need to have some torches

On us let’s make a couple more as we stand here of course once we got a few torches we can cycle this charcoal back into the furnace in order to smelt some of this iron and we should be in good stead I’m going to definitely need a

Little bit of iron if I want to make a shield and once again shields are going to be super valuable to us here in hardcore if we’re going to survive for very long once we gathered a few more materials I think we’ll set out from this forest in search of something a

Little bit more interesting we’ll find out what some other biomes are that are nearby but yeah as far as hardcore mode goes there we go we’ve got ourselves some iron there I think it’s kind of fun but also kind of stressful and I often like minecraft to be a little bit more

Of a relaxed activity I am much happier playing Minecraft without the constant threat of all of my progress being deleted if I make a silly mistake and while I have a pretty good record in the regular Minecraft Survival Guide series over 200 and something episodes 270 episodes at this point I’ve only ever

Had 14 deaths which is not bad but a single death in the Survival Guide series if it was in hardcore would have meant that that series had to end and I had to start again from the beginning and I think when we got as far as dying

In the Survival Guide it was around episode 70 so if you wanted to watch the Survival Guide series as though it was a hardcore series the way I always joke about it is that if you watched up until episode 70 and then stopped watching it’s like I’ve done a hardcore series at

That point but if you want to survive in a hardcore world if you want to go the distance and end up surviving the hardcore world for the duration then there really isn’t a whole lot you need to know aside from the basics that you’re already using in regular minecraft survival you just need

To find some iron and fairly quickly so you can make some decent armor you need to make a lot of torches to light up caves so that when you explore you don’t run into mobs making a shield is always a good idea staying away from witches

Who can poison you and leave you on half a heart of health in the early stages of the game these are all fairly basic strategies that you should probably know just from playing regular survival minecraft and so while I wouldn’t recommend jumping into hardcore right

Away I feel like once you’ve got a feel for survival minecraft if you feel like giving hardcore a try then by all means do I think the main thing to remember is just that you run the risk of the world being deleted if you end up dying and

Hopefully by the end of this video I’ll have gotten myself a decent amount of gear but then I will probably end up dying on purpose just to show you guys how the death screen looks in hardcore if for whatever reason you want to see that that is of course if I haven’t

Already died at some point in the episode by mistake so it looks like this a little bit of iron around here in this ravine I’m gonna do my best not to fall into the ravine and shield myself from the skeleton I keep hearing let’s see if

We can bridge across here a little bit more safely yep I see him he’s over there right now not paying any attention to me which is good I’ll try and break myself down to this iron and really yeah I’m just playing it cautiously as I can

Hear I think if you want to go the distance in a hardcore world you’ll have to be a little bit more careful than you would be in survival but that’s really the only big difference a lot of people play survival minecraft a little recklessly in the knowledge that they

Will be able to keep all of their gear and some folks even like to play with the keep inventory game rule on so that you can always have your gear even if you die kind of early in the game but I don’t really worry too much about that

Stuff I tend to play survival the way it was intended but most of the time I’m fairly confident I can handle myself in these early game situations and I don’t need to worry too much about dying I am quite careful and I’ve had enough practice at minecraft at this point to

Know that I’m not going to do anything silly like fall into a lava pit on the surface or jump over a ravine and miss you oh I’m also not gonna take down any of these beehives and this I have a silk touch tool or a campfire but it looks

Like there are certainly bees generating in this forest now that is a new fun aspect of Minecraft 1.15 point to which of course the version we are playing on at this point bee nests actually have the ability to generate in forests of other kinds than flower forests now previously they would

Just generate on Plains sunflower Plains and flower forests but now I believe every tree in a forest biome or a birch forest or a birch Hills biome or anything like that has a naught point two percent chance of generating a bee nest I think it’s something along those

Lines which is not a huge chance of course but it means with the amount of trees that are here you’re likely to find a couple of bee nests quite quickly of course the bees like witches are going to give you a bit of that poison effect so that is probably something you

Will want to avoid and as you can see now I’ve just got to the point where I’ve lost my first half a heart of this hardcore adventure health regeneration is not affected at all by hardcore mode though so as long as we find ourselves some food I should be able to recover

That no problem and that’s where the other side of hardcore comes in which is ultra hardcore Ultra Hardcore is something you might have heard about from the Minecraft kind of tournament world I suppose if you’re interested in player versus player combat and stuff like that Ultra Hardcore is a game type

Within hardcore minecraft where natural health regeneration is disabled and it’s not the kind of thing that appears in the Minecraft menu it’s also people who set up Ultra Hardcore tournaments if servers have it or if they set up a private server for a match then they are gonna disable natural health

Regeneration through a game rule which is not something I’m going to be able to do in this hardcore mode right now because I don’t have access to cheats that’s part of the the aspect of hardcore mode I suppose is that you don’t have access to commands meaning

That you cannot enter any commands to save yourself will put yourself in creative mode or anything like that but I will probably be able to figure out a way to disable natural health regeneration towards the end of this episode are there really no animals around here though I feel like I haven’t

Encountered a sheep or a cow or anything yet even some fish in the ocean or the river might help at this stage but it looks like we might have to venture up into this natural Mountain biome over here and see if there are any sheep out here in the wild looks like

There’s a zombie or two over here and as it said during the menu screen yeah there we go okay as it said during the menu screen the difficulty is logged on hard but that doesn’t affect anything else about mob spawning or mob attack it’s just the

Same as you will normally find it in typical hard minecraft you won’t end up with any additional whoa okay looks like we are taking a little bit of damage there I’ll try and regenerate my health if I can you won’t find that skeletons are any more accurate we’ll do any more

Damage or anything like that it is really just hard minecraft with a little bit of extra tension added on top okay we got ourselves some mutton from that sheep should hopefully get a little bit of wolves so we can make a bed and now I’m gonna have to leave all this a

Shipwreck down there okay I think I’ll probably dig into the mountainside from now regenerate a little bit of health probably even use some of this rotten flesh if I can and I will do my best to hide from the skeletons until morning having a little bit of food it certainly

Makes me feel a little bit more comfortable though and that is honestly part of the draw of hardcore for people who like to play it the fact that we just took a huge risk just going out to find some sheep in the night and that’s the the cool thing about hardcore I

Suppose is that you have that added sense of adrenaline it’s almost like riding a roller coaster in a way is you’re basically risking your life at every opportunity at this point and it’s kind of cool to feel that rush every time you enter any kind of combat

Naturally you’ll want to get as much iron on the go as you can at nice and early and it looks like we have a decent amount that I can smelt Here I am just going to smelt up a couple more ingots so I can make myself some more tools and

Then the rest of this is going to be smelted using some charcoal even in ultra hardcore tournaments though when natural health regeneration is disabled there are still ways of recovering those precious precious hearts are those being regeneration effects provided by either potions or golden apples and so a lot of

The time in ultra hardcore tournaments you’ll find either solo players or teams of players working together and the first thing they will do is go caving to acquire gear and also to get hold of some gold because if they can make a Golden Apple at any point then that

Probably puts them at a bit of advantage being able to regenerate any health they have lost just through exploring or fighting with mobs or potentially encounters with other players and by the end of a UHC tournament all of the players meet up somewhere in the center of the map and

Have a deathmatch the world border will often shrink forcing them into a smaller area much like it does in battle royale games like pub G or fortnight and you will find that a lot of the time people save their golden apples until the last minute so they can get an advantage of

That regeneration effect during the final battle right I think we’ll probably make myself let’s do some leggings for now actually because those are going to provide a decent amount of armor and leave us with a little bit of stuff to make probably I think a sword

And a shovel would be a good idea at this stage we’ve got the sword let’s go with a shovel leaving us with one iron ingot and I think I will dig a little bit further into this hillside to see if I can encounter any more iron ore we’ll

Have to dig down a little bit further in order to get that because we are still above sea level here in iron doesn’t generate above why 64 but we are only 18 minutes into this hardcore world at this stage and I’ve already got to the point

Where I have halfway to a full set of iron armor I’ve got myself some iron tools the first night will be over shortly and I should be able to return to the surface if I want to do a little bit more exploring so hardcore is all about playing it safe but it’s also

About taking risks because as we know in Minecraft or risks often equal great reward and if we dug down a little bit further or we get some coal here fantastic let me grab another stone pickaxe before we go any further if we dig down of course we are likely to find

Ourselves some diamonds which is probably going to be the goal of this episode before I end up just dying of natural causes I’m gonna try to find some diamonds and make myself at least a diamond pick or something like that that always seems like a nice easy objective

In the early stages of one of these Berner worlds naturally though there are some players who will want to play in hardcore mode and have done so for a vast amount of time you might be familiar with phil zur who recently kind of went viral for a

Death in which he lost his five year plus hardcore world so there are definitely players who if they play it safe and they want to take on large projects can be playing in a hardcore world for an inordinately long amount of time and most of the time they don’t

Play with health regeneration disabled they’re still playing regular hard minecraft like the rest of us except for those players they only have one life so ultimately in hardcore you either play recklessly or you learn to play incredibly carefully and just take everything slowly one step at a time

Using what you know about the game to your advantage for example right here I’ve got my subtitles turned on making sure that I know which direction these zombie sounds are coming from and it sounds like there’s a lot of them right now so in normal survival I would

Probably dig around here to try and find a spawner and that’s something I might be a little bit more interested in if I had more stuff to defend myself but right now I really feel like I’m gonna have to avoid that at all counts and considering I don’t plan on sticking

Around in this world I’m not really going to worry too much about finding that zombie spawner if I can help it it looks like we’ve got a lot of mobs in here though so I’m gonna have to block this up and continue around the side of it if I want to survive here

Alternatively we could start to dig ourselves little poke holes like this and see if we can take out the zombies using that as long as there aren’t any baby zombies around that are going to jump through this hole and get me I might just be able to sneak out here and

Try and take care of that creeper for example with my shield up which can block the explosion damage you see it’s all about what you know here and what I know is that I’m about to be overrun by zombies oh dear this is not great luckily my armor seems to be holding up

And I can potentially block myself in in just a second nope looks like this is it for me unless there we go I time my hits okay and that once again it was a very very close call see hardcore mode is all about playing with a level head it’s all

About making sure you don’t panic in situations like that and you time everything to the best of your ability and I don’t know if I’m going to be able to go back out into that room right now because I don’t really have much in the way of food maybe like

Return to the surface and hopefully some of those sheep will still be milling around that I can get some more mutton from it looks like there are a couple more sheep around here and I wish I had another iron ingot that I could use to turn these into shears but I guess we’re

Probably just gonna have to kill these for the mutton right now and I think I might have a go at exploring the shipwreck I’ve already seen the ocean monuments out there but there is no way I’m gonna try and tackle that in this hardcore world for once though this

Shipwreck is mostly on land which means the inside isn’t flooded and it is a lot easier to explore there we go that’s the windfall I was looking for grab myself some gold and iron lovely stuff we’ll take the chests with us as well in case I need to leave that somewhere I guess

Now I’ve got a decent amount of iron I can just switch to using my iron pickaxe yes there it is and okay most of that is poisonous and we have one suspicious stew we have a curse of vanishing leather tunic and an unbreaking two tunic as well I guess I’ll take the

Potatoes and the TNT but the rest of that now not interested at least now I have the option of making myself the last pieces of armor I can get some boots and I can get a helmet and we are all kitted out in our full iron suit

With five iron ingots left over great stuff that can make a bucket I’ll probably make some shears as well just in case we have the opportunity to make a bed and I think I will leave this chest on top of the furnace here while I cook a little bit more stuff and that

Way we can store some of the other stuff inside here as long as I can open up the top of the chest there there we go let’s take a little bit of cobblestone with us we’ll leave all of the decorative stone we’ll leave the wall here as well and

The bones we probably won’t need for the moment always make sure you’ve got some wood with you because wood is going to be vital for making other stuff as we progress further down into the mine here I think I can probably leave the gold and emeralds in here as well I don’t

Know for certain about the TNT but we might find a reason to set that off a little bit later eat one of these potatoes for good measure the suspicious stew is an interesting one because I don’t know what the effects of that are it could be poison it could be whether

Both of which would be fatal at this point in a hardcore world but I think we should be okay just leaving that in the inventory for the time being we’ll have it there in case of emergencies and if it has a regen or saturation that would

Be kind of cool but for now I think we’ll just leave it in there as a last resort now I am playing through this hardcore world kind of quickly I am taking a fair amount of risks as I explore here but because I know that I don’t plan to keep

This world around for all that much longer whereas if you are playing in a hardcore world yourself you probably want to play it a lot safer than this I recommend getting yourself a nice cave to spend the night in making sure the area is secure and survive your first

Night much the same as we did in the Survival Guide although maybe don’t try and build a house on your first night in hardcore unless you have a lot more experience with Minecraft I really think it’s something that you can take out your own pace and there is still a lot

Of fun to be had in hardcore but like I said the reason I’m not all that interested is because for making a youtube series at least having your progress reset every so often because you’ve died in a stupid way is not the best thing for the type of video I like

To make which is typically tutorial videos so if the folks have been encouraging me to try out a hardcore world this is really why I think the idea in survival guide is still not to die as often as possible but I don’t want the entire world to be deleted in

The event that I do and sometimes in the case of survival guide I actually like to demonstrate how certain death scenarios can happen for episode 2 like the one we did about what to do when you die in Minecraft which is kind of a vital episode of the series because it

Prepares you for any of the stuff that can happen at some point while you’re playing this game and nothing really prepares you for dying in hardcore because you only really get one chance at saving yourself but if you’re playing in a hardcore world on a regular basis you probably

Want to have some idea of how to organize your hotbar for survival and that’s something somebody brought up in at the comments of a previous episode recently they kind of said why do you organize your hotbar the way that you do and it’s fairly simple from my point of

View especially when I’m caving I have my torches in the number one slot so I always know where those are and I can switch to them at a moment’s notice I have my pickaxe in number two because I probably want to be mining and placing torches kind of in the same area

Likewise I can scroll using the scroll wheel of the mouse and immediately get over to some food which I often need at short notice the sword and the pickaxe are also kind of interchangeable there in slots two and three because it’s kind of useful to

Be able to scroll to a sword nice and quickly if you’re in a caving situation like this and you do encounter some mobs and then the axe and shovel and some of the building blocks are usually towards the middle because they are less required in emergency situations in the

Way that the sword and the pickaxe would be sort of the same idea with the bucket actually once the bucket ends up getting filled with water it’s mainly there for emergencies to make sure I can scroll to it nice and quickly to prevent myself from getting burned in lava or anything

Like that seriously where is this cave I feel like oh okay it’s an abandoned mineshaft in that case I’m gonna back away from that because those spider noises are probably cave spiders and I really don’t feel like getting poisoned in a hardcore world this is something

Else you want to be a little bit aware of when you’re playing in hardcore drips from the ceiling above obviously in this case it denotes water but lava will also drip through the underside of blocks if you are digging underneath a lava lake not to mention the fact that

Occasionally although it’s kind of rare to see this slime will actually drip from underneath there if you are directly below a one block gap between you and a slime it’s kind of rare to see that because often you don’t run into slimes in caves like that but you can do

Occasionally see green drips which are an indication that a slime is on the block above that so the last thing I want to really talk about in this episode is why people are so fascinated with hardcore mode because it’s really just playing Minecraft on Hard difficulty and only having one life the

Game itself is not that different there is no extra loot like there is in games like terraria where playing on hard mode actually two additional benefits and Wow I really want to still touch that but I don’t have a silk touch pickaxe right now emerald ore is one of my favorite blocks

To get in the game as you probably know from watching the Survival Guide I feel like a lot of the appeal of hardcore mode for people comes from the fact that it’s a bit of an adrenaline rush and the stakes are a little bit higher if your

World could be lost at any moment then you kind of learn to take every moment as it comes and try and play the entire game to your advantage as best you can it feels somehow more skillful to be able to avoid death in this game where people often die

Thanks to silly mistakes I feel like it’s also a fascination for people who play on minecraft bedrock edition because unfortunately as of right now hardcore mode has not been implemented in bedrock edition and it isn’t really possible to play that way except using a kind of honor system where if you end up

Dying in the world you just decide you’re going to delete the world you know what I may as well mine this I hate to do it but I may as well health so if your pulse started racing earlier when I was nearly killed by zombies or if the

Sound of all of those spiders in the abandoned mineshaft filled you with dread then maybe hardcore is for you maybe you want to create a world and give hardcore mode a try if you’re a Java player there’s really nothing stopping you and it is kind of fun to

Try out once you’ve got more familiar with Minecraft and its mechanics who knows you could realize that hardcore is actually what you’ve been looking for in Minecraft this entire time the challenge that is there the idea that all of this could be destroyed at any minute and you

Wouldn’t get to return to this world maybe that is what some folks look for in their minecraft experience for me though I’m really looking for something that can persist for a long time and something that I can honestly say that I’ve worked on for absolutely ages regardless of whether or not I make

Silly mistakes and I end up dying or in the case of the Survival Guide I demonstrate dying for the places where it becomes a teachable moment oh it looks like we’re circling back around into that mine shaft and I feel like we will take this opportunity to explore a

Little bit of it anyway because let’s face it we might as well there is a lot of lava around though naturally because we are this far down in the world we are going to find it and so I will have to tread carefully if I want to survive

This little exchange let’s see if we can find ourselves some diamonds the zombies are breakdancing on the rails over there and we’ll try our best to make sure they go in the lava or at least get killed nice and easily let’s take a quick jaunt around this abandoned mineshaft I think

It kind of ends here actually I think there’s a lot of stuff around here that could potentially kill us like that gravels ceiling caving in on us or something like that let’s see if we can find any diamonds around the corners here obviously you’re gonna want to

Block off some of this lava wait for it to disperse find a bucket of water if I can at some point soon it looks like we’ve just got some redstone over here which I guess I’ll gather cuz I’ve been gathering all the other redstone so far is this water saucer anywhere we can

Gather it looks like it might be so we could potentially use this to turn all of that lava into obsidian and avoid getting cooked by it let’s plant that up there there we go whoo block that lava source off gotta say I always liked finding caves at this level because

There’s always a chance that you might find some diamonds embedded in the walls here and there unfortunately for me it looks like we don’t have any in this section of the cave so we might have to explore the mineshaft a little bit further no but looks like if we want to

Find diamonds anywhere in this cave we’re gonna have to start branching out from this level here and I’ll try my best to block off some of these areas so we don’t have stuff falling on us from the mineshaft above I can hear some skeletons I can hear some spiders

Neither of which I feel like tangling with right now and here we go folks after 20 experience levels about an hour and 10 minutes playing and almost picking up so much redstone that I could not contain these diamonds when I found them we have finally found ourselves some diamonds here in this experimental

Little hardcore world there we go we got the diamonds we got the advancement we got enough diamonds to make ourselves a diamond pick and I think that will probably be my last act for this episode so let me grab this crafting table let’s make ourselves a handle for that pickaxe

Let’s put the diamonds in place there we go we got ourselves our diamond pick and I’m gonna throw the iron pick on the ground in fact I’m probably gonna throw myself into lava in just a second because we don’t really need this hardcore world it’s just for demonstration purposes but before we do

That I figured I may as well show you guys the commands for dis a natural health regeneration in case you want to try Ultra Hardcore modes so to do this we’re actually going to have to pause the game click open to LAN and allow cheats this is actually a way that

You can enable cheats in basically any world so that you can perform any kind of admin actions you need to even if you didn’t start the world with cheats enabled so handy little trick there for you what we’re gonna do is do slash game rule like so scroll down here and you

Will see natural regeneration so we’re gonna click on that it’s a lowercase n an uppercase R and it put natural regeneration false like so now let’s actually go out and find something that will damage us we’ll dig back up into that mine shaft and we will see if we

Can actually regenerate health anymore oh I hear a couple of zombies let’s see if we can track them down in the dark depths of this cave now we’ve got our diamond pickaxes at our side what could possibly go wrong I imagine a probably quite a bit because the zombies and

Skeletons and stuff have been spawning around here for the last little while and oh yeah they are angry so let me take out this skeleton it real fast let me deal with this zombie we’ve still got full iron armor so we’re not gonna worry too much about the mobs around here

There we go but as you can see my hunger bar my saturation is at full but those last two hearts of my health are no longer regenerating so this is now ultra hardcore mode this is what they call it at least we’re natural health regeneration is disabled and if you only

Have one life that means you’re in dire straits unless you have anything that can artificially regenerate your health like potions or golden apples Cooke and skeletons and creepers are potentially going to be a hazard in that circumstances like this but that creeper didn’t seem to do too much damage to us

I have my shield up yet we are we are pretty good so far we’ve got three hearts down but we could potentially go at the distance we could go a little bit further but I think this lava down here is where we are going to meet our end

Because the last thing I wanted to show you in this episode is the hardcore death screen so farewell to this hardcore world we’re going to sink into the lava and as you will see instead of the option to respawn here we either get to go to the title screen or we get to

Spectate the world spectating the world will just put you in spectator mode back at your spawn point and you’ll know longer be able to take any actions of course if you have the world open to land you could always put yourself in survival mode again which is kind of a

Cheesy way of getting past it but for the honor of hardcore I expect most players will not want to bother with that instead we can click save and quit to title and in the single-player you will see this world is set to hardcore mode and if we go back to the hardcore

Mode world you will see that we are still in spectator mode we are not able to respawn and take any more action in this world of that is it and if you want to you can look around at all the stuff you’ve done if you’ve built up your

Hardcore world over a long period of time you can see exactly where you started out and I think up here was where we set up our first little crafting table and so forth we’ve got a furnace up here and down here in the caves is where we took our first steps

Into the caving that’s the ravine that we explored early on as you can see that’s kind of the gist of it with hardcore mode and I hope you guys have enjoyed this little attempt at a hardcore mode explanation it’s not something I do all that often because

Like I said I’m in the mode of making tutorials and so forth so I don’t really tend to do a lot of hardcore playing because deleting my world is not my idea of a good time but I hope you guys have enjoyed this hardcore episode if you did

Don’t forget to leave a like on it subscribe if you want to see more and I’ll see you guys soon take care bye for now
