Im just curious but why even put villagers in a game when they do nothing. They give no exp when you kill them and take up more space rather than mobs or more animals to spawn. I would hope that 4J will give us some kind of hope in maybe trading or emeralds instead of probably working on the new Xbone. Could be just me but what do you guys think. It just seems everyone has been wanting and asking quite politely for it for some time now.
actually as far as I know villagers have their own max separate limit.
Trading more likely will come, but can't say for sure. It just makes sense to put that feature in, now whether that will be in the next update or not has yet to be mentioned or showed...

My First World, always getting back to is a pleasure I enjoy with each new update that brings in more things to add in.
all you all have to do is look at what pc has and xbox is soon to follow. villagers turn to zombies and are a big part of trading when making adventure maps
Well in that case even better, Thanks. Now you have to save the villagers that still do nothing for you as you risk everything for them. Way to be a glass half full guy. It still doesn't answer why after what everyone has asked for the most is why they cant make them trade. I don't even care about the emeralds they could make it zombie flesh that you could trade...there made it even easier for them to make. While you guys keep coming up with sorry reasons why they aren't able to maybe you should start thinking of why they haven't yet. Sorry I'm just upset with 4J because it should be about what the gamers want and as where Mojang listens to their followers and continue to get the most awesome things....4J comes out with a chunk of goodness and everyone's happy because it came out. No they are just happy they finally got something. Im just saying what most won't.

You do realize the amount of coding and work that goes into a title update for the xbox? They have to port all the work that took Mojang months to implement and completely rewrite it into the code that runs on the xbox. This isn't something that can be done over night, and it's also not a fact of them not listening to what the community wants. It's the time that it takes to implement, test, and be aproved by Microsoft before it even hits xbox live.
I think you need to take that into consideration and not be so upset because they can't add features over night. There will be villager trading and just about every other feature that the pc has over the course of the next few months. Such as the next title update will be featuring the new wood slabs, upside down stairs, and a whole slue of other great features. Ranting about it on the forums and blaming the developers is not the solution of the problem.
Also this "Im just saying what most won't." actually a lot of people have. Just take a look at the XBLA MC forums, there is a ton of people just like you ranting about the same thing. It's doing nothing but spamming the forums with useless threads, that the developers most likely wont see anyway.
So instead of wasting peoples time to read your rant threads, simply just enjoy the game for what it is or move on. Simple as that, sorry if I am coming across rudely it's just upsetting to see people complain and blame the developers that work hard to bring you the games you play.
Im not bashing 4J or their programmers on the endless hours of work they do it is appreciated and being an IT guy I understand coding and the time it takes. All you mentioned does take time...yes but if you read what I wrote instead of crying yourself, Im just wondering why if something that is asked for so heavily why its not taking priority over some other things not about "Why aren't they doing this overnight".Sorry if Im coming over rude but this is a forum where people write issues per say bugs and things they would like to see in the game. Don't try to come out like a hero when all some of us are doing is saying "Hey everyone has been asking for this but you give us this instead" and then wondering why that's all. Also wondering why out of six others that didn't get all bound up by my post is why you had to go all postal on it. Go Joe.

~Good Day as well Sir.
Okay, but if you weren't bashing them or anything, then why did you name the thread 'Why do you hate us'?

"And so I go fast. Not because I want to, because no one else will."
Like xZoSox said and a very good that point there are a lot of people out there filling threads with random nonsense and ruining these threads. I was thinking maybe the title would get some attention is all. I really do enjoy the game even as is but still leading to the question is...If there are so many asking for a certain thing and you want to please your fan group why wouldn't you give them that especially with it being asked on so much. If I offended some that took it that way do excuse it wasn't a "bashing" session.

You ever hear the saying "you can't please everyone"? Well that basically answers your question, with over 10,903,624 and counting copies sold on PC/Mac alone. Makes it hard to take the thousands of suggestions made on here and other websites each day. Pick one, tweak it, code it, test it, etc. All with out straying from their ultimate goal of where they want the game to go as well and please the community at the same time.
If you really feel strongly about an idea and want to get support make a proper thread in the suggestions forums. Explain what it is, how it would be implemented into the game, why you feel it would be a good addition to the game, etc. Tweet a developer the link, post it on Reddit, etc. That is the most effective way of getting your idea out there in front of the developers.
xZoSox like you said and that's what Im doing. This thread is in the Xbox part of the forum and Im not talking about the many of pc and mac copies sold and Im just doing what your suggesting writing it in a thread to see if it gets there attention that there are a lot out there that would not like but LOVE. I highly doubt that this being a MinecraftForum that they don't have someone out there scoping through these and checking to see what everyone is saying. I don't tweet or facebook or reddit like everyone else in this world. I almost didn't do this but I actually enjoy Minecraft that much to make a profile to talk to others about the same things I enjoy. So try to understand that Im doing exactly what your saying you just have blown it out of proportion either join the cause or quit trolling. Im just voicing it would be an awesome thing to be added and that SO many would appreciate it as well.
Villagers are there to murder. That's their only use at the moment. 4j studios, what kind of game did you guys create? A "happy tree friends"-esque violent killer?

Sigh >.> My point is make a proper suggestion thread or don't bother because it will not get support or replies. I'm sorry that you can't seem to understand that and pull the auto troll card. Also please use paragraphs it's hard to read your post..

Actually, villager trading is not the item being asked for the most.... that honor probably goes to larger/infinite worlds and alternative ideas for linking multiple worlds followed closely by requests for rental servers and map sharing, then requests for various mod packages, jungles and ocelots, upside-down stairs, and redstone lamps. There are also probably a few others I just can't think about to name right now. These forums read like a library of demands made by essentially impatient and unsatisfiable people. The moment the PC adds anything new, there are a dozen posts asking for it to be immediately added to the Xbox edition.
It should be obvious to everyone by now that the basic game plan has always been to add things in roughly the same order the PC added them. It is taking roughly the same amount of time... i.e. we started off about a year behind the PC and we're essentially just a little more than a year behind it now. I doubt that 4J hates anyone for asking for stuff, but honestly I wouldn't blame them in the least if they were getting a little fed up with the incessant demands by now.
Everything comes to he who waits... patience is a virtue. As Mustache-Guy stated, 4J have suggested that villager trading will come in a future update.
UpUp_Away, thank you Bro for the post I have seen a lot like what you've added as well and I'm sure it is a very hard thing for the programmers to decide like you said with a bunch of impatient and unsatisfied people chomping at the bit. Thanks again I'm done with this post so xZoSox take care man and thanks as well you've been a great help.
They don't hurt anything by being there. They are scenery at the moment and I like fixing up their villages for no good reason other than I think of them as pets.
If you don't want them you can murder them all and tear down the villages. Or you can ignore them until trading gets added.
Trading more likely will come, but can't say for sure. It just makes sense to put that feature in, now whether that will be in the next update or not has yet to be mentioned or showed...
One could also assume that since Iron Golems, part of NPC Villages, are being added in TU12 that we may be getting the Zombie Seige feature.
