I am extremely excited for 1.8, but along with the majority of the forum, I am willing to wait as long as it takes in order for all the features to be implemented to the best of notch's ability.
I am getting a little impatient waiting for this update. I paid 21 dollars for minecraft and the updates and 1.8 is just taking very long time. Go ahead and get pissed at me, I really don't care. Just tell me when you think 1.8 will be out.
Well, you paid 21 dollars for whatever version it was in when you bought it. Notch has NO obligation to release the update. And there have been numerous discussions on this topic already, look for them.

Manly blood is both highly acidic AND highly basic, but I'm glad to see you're paying attention.
STFU. Programming takes long. And Notch is completely dedicated! Except this weekend because he is working on that Ludum Dare thing... And when he is on vacation.... And when he is Tweeting... But other than that, he is ALWAYS dedicated.

No you didn't, because TNT damage doesn't stack.

I'm not mad at you for complaining at all so don't get that idea. Mojang is adding updates to 1.8 like every day. Notch just added rivers. I'm fairly sure they are still working on NPC villages. You paid for a game in development. That doesn't mean they have to constantly release updates. Really if they wanted to, they could stop all development of Minecraft right now. Mojang doesn't owe anyone updates to the game. Heres a good comparison. Battlefield 3 is coming out soon. If they wanted to they could have just released the campaign mode, with no multiplayer. Would people want that? No. Everyone wants the multiplayer, so they took their time and added that into the game. It's the same concept in Minecraft. The longer they take, the better it will be.
If it wasn't for all of Notch's vacations and game nights we would have had 1.8 2 months ago.
You have to be kidding me right? What, just because Notch owns a company and is making a game he can't enjoy life? That is one of the most selfish comments I have ever heard. Why torture yourself your whole life just to make others happy? Notch is just going through life as he wants to. Don't ridicule him for that.

You are now reading this. You just lost the game.
You have just read this. You are also manually breathing.
Minecraft 1.8 as coming a week or so into september, demo launches on the 26th so give a week for tweaks or bugfixes and voila! a strawberry cake made of a whole egg, three bundles of wheat, ground up reeds and three buckets of unpasturized milk.

Programming consists of trial, error and patience. Consistency in programming succession is mandatory to continually please players and provide time to code in newer, better things. Coding may also consist of minor fixes that may have no relevance to gameplay, but may help improve memory usage or connection lag for SMP. In other words, be patient. 1.8 is going to be awesome once it's released.

Wow. Seriously? You paid for the game as you bought it. When you spent that 21 dollars, you were buying the game as it was at that exact time. You didn't pay for the updates, you didn't pay for the full version. You payed for the beta. You do not own notch, he has no obligation to even complete the game. You did not buy the updates, you bought the game as-is. Notch, this lovely, lovely person, is continually updating the game, under no obligation. He is not your slave.
Understand?

Goodness.... I just had a thought.... Creepers are like Daleks, they can Destroy everything that you know, Ever cared for, And even the whole of Reality....
We are all doomed.

NNNNOPE. Someone obviously hasn't played TF2 long enough to figure out how much the community hates COD.

Just wait for the update, watch some Minecraft LP's, play some mods or even better play on some Multiplayer servers or some custom maps.
Believe me, time will fly then.
