Because the bugs are supposedly too severe. Everyone would just complain how much the update sucks if they released it full of bugs.
We're beta testers. You're talking about it like it's a full game.

I have every right to use that image as my avatar. I loved 11/9 and I laughed at it. Don't like it? Butthurt? Too bad. I have the right to express my opinion
Jeb said that they never release patches on Friday but I checked and the last few patches were released on Friday. Why would he say something like that? So I expect 1.8 this Friday.
There is a difference between a patch and an update. They don't release updates on fridays so they do't have to release patches on the weekend. Tey are perfectly willing to release patches on friday
Well it looks like 1.8 is going to be the last update before its full release, that's kinda disapointing to me.. :\ Will they still add things after the full release? so much is still unfinished.. we still need windmills and waterwheels, not the BTW version.. >.<

I for one can't believe that Notch hired an entire team so there isn't just 1 person that does the coding and now the team works on games that can't trump the success of Minecraft. And now there is only 1 person working at Minecraft (again), the game that brings in the money at Mojang. Jeb_ deserves a medal for that. He does 10 times the work that Notch does at the moment.
I have to agree with hiring a bloody team, why put so much pressure on a one or two person affair? If Notch wants to go party with babes in bikinis there's no problems with it, just wish he would install a team of programmers that can stomp the bugs and take care of issues in a far more productive manner.
WHY NOT?
I might be iron, but I make your picks to mine diamonds.
FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU....thtas very baaad!(but still cant wait!)
thats right because if they fix bugs....then will release new bugs by fixing them....OH WELL :dry.gif:

I've been here since 1.2...whoa. That's Alpha....The most I've built is a castle...
This isn't a closed beta. It would be different if it was. Right now you can consider us actual players, not testers.

Guess = "It's assumed the Release date we're shooting for is the 8th, no guarantees though."
Promise = "We promise to release it on the 8th."
Actually a big difference.
. . .
NO NO NNNNOOOOO thats unacceptable!
The suspense of even half of 1.8 might kill most of us.
Most likely in the form of a heart attack when Updating out games.

Bug fixing ≠ fun.
