However most players that refer to the 'FTB map' mean the pyramid map, known for its large basalt pyramid that included various rooms that listed a set of items the player had to create in order to solve each challenge. The map went through various iterations, including the bedrock map - known for the challenge and reward structure made of bedrock. This version gained large popularity after being livestreamed on Twitch with Direwolf20 competing against Mattabase, both very well known modded Minecraft players.Īfter the map was released, the FTB Team decided to simplify the installation of the modpack by creating a launcher to automatically distribute the map, mods and configuration for those interested in playing it. The map was adapted to allow multiple players to compete against each other in a race to complete the objectives. Using the tech mods in the modpack, these goals would be checked and give rewards automatically. The map was a SkyBlock map the player spawned on a small platform in a void world, and must overcome a series of challenges. It was announced on February 24th, 2012 on the Minecraft Forums. Feed The Beast was originally created as a custom challenge map, developed by a small team led by Slowpoke.
