Since Notch has been doing this stats/achievements thing, how much do you expect to see?
I'm hoping thousands for the time he's spent on it. if its below a hundred, I'm going to majorly sadface.
He hasn't been working on it for that long, dumbass.
You people need to learn to ****ing appreciate the things you get. Stop being spoiled little bitches and go play another game if you aren't content with the update speed. I for one, am very happy, and am glad I spent 20 dollars on an amazing game.
Some people are not appreciative of anything, and decide to **** over the people who gave it to them in the first place. These people are dumbasses. *sigh* What're you going to do, I suppose. They'll just continue to be spoiled little brats until someone/something decides to take it all away.
Did I ever say I wasn't appreciative of what I have so far? Is using foul language and hate-speech towards someone a sign of immaturity and ignorance? yes Stop making yourself feel higher-than-thou while flaming people.
[quote]We had a board meeting today, which felt relatively grown up and mature. We had it at a nice asian restaurant, and there was food, drinks and coffee. Carl held a nice presentation, showing the progress of the company, and we discussed and voted about various details on where to go and what to do. The most relevant parts for Minecraft is that we decided to bring in bug fixing into the development method in a more clear way so that people working customer support can add them as tasks for us, and that we finally set a release date for Minecraft.
It’s a bit tricky to really do a release for Minecraft as we keep updating it all the time. For one, the version we deem as the “full version” won’t be very different at all from what the game was like a week ago, and we’ll keep adding features after the release as well, so it’s really more of a milestone when we finally get rid of the Beta label, and some kind of goal for us to work towards. The plan is to be open with this and try to get people to cheer us on as much as possible, but to be open with the fact that the game won’t change much at the actual release day. (It’s more a progress up until that point)
We picked November 11, with the unofficial tagline “us too”.

It’s the same date as a few other games and movies, and the one I’m the most excited about is Skyrim, so that will be a nice reward for me if we actually manage to hit that date!

People please, just because the OP does not have a game that has all the same things as Minecraft means nothing. I, however, do agree with the OP. People make Notch seem like the most amazing person in the world. This game really shouldn't even be in beta yet, and making the game complete in 11/11/11 is going to be a pain in the ass for Notch to update the game enough to be full game worthy.

We’ve been working on finishing up Achievements and Statistics for 1.5, I ran into some issues with JSON, got frustrated, and added weather instead. Developing new features like that is what I enjoy doing the most, so I ended up covering a lot of ground. There’s periodic downfall (snow in snowy areas, rain in others, nothing in deserts) that make the sky darker, hides the sun, moon and stars, and makes everything wet. Ice grows back in cold regions, and snowfall covers the ground when it’s snowing. During rain/snow, there can be occasional thunderstorms with lightning. I haven’t finished the actual lightning bolt yet, but everything else is fairly done.
Once the stats are done and the weather has been tested through, we’ll release 1.5. I’m guessing this will be next week. The piston mod might get added, but it will not be in time for 1.5.
Gordan, you've practically ****ed yourself over. If you ask me, it seems like he isn't slacking off.
How many multimillion games have you made?
Thats right.
How many times have you been visited by a rich guy and taken to a fancy restaraunt?
None? Good.

Remember: You're a beta tester. You're supposed to test, not expect the best.

Because he's gonna keep updating the game even after the release.
If you want few updates with large content, go play COD, or some MMO. Because Notch has dedicated his life to this game, and works damn hard on it. So go get some patience or get out.
I don't want to sound like I'm flaming, but you don't realize how selfish you are.

I've highlighted the parts you graciously left out.
I'm gunna jump and say the OP is trolling everybody.
Nobody can be retarded enough to think this
Since when is expressing ones opinion considered trolling? If anything you are flaming this thread.
And since I got ninja'd I guess I'll talk about you too, Billysaurus. Not only does the above sentences apply, but does Notch have a full time job, or is the making of the games considered a full time job? Most full time jobs are long hours, which it seems Notch does not put in.

Theres not a term for it that I can think of, but stop being an anti-fan boy. As in one who thinks "Everybody loves this. so I'll hate it. God, Notch is such a ****ing asshole!"
Its not being a fanboy, its being appreciative. The man quit his job to make minecraft.
And you say "the modders section has come up with more updates than Notch" (not exact quote but whatever). Really? A few hundred, maybe thousand people, have come up with more addons than one man? No ****.
But what can I say, h8rz gon' h8
You left out the Mo. Creat. guy dumbass.
Who has once again, created many MANY more Mobs than Mojang.

He says Won't be very different, this could be interpreted as being 1,000,000 times better, with the only similarity being the name.
What he probally meant, was that the full version won't be a huge deal, that the shift from beta to full version is label only.

We actually don't just MineCraft over their.
Most of us.
Lets just summarize here:
1. You play Roblox.
2. You haven't even bought the game.
3. You lied to us multiple times.
4. You insult Notch, yet contradict yourself by posting the blog comment.
5. When you lose an argument, which you have multiple times in this thread, you say some completely random comment that doesn't have anything to do with anything.
By my standards, you've lost. Leave now. Why should you care anyway? You haven't lost anything to this game since you haven't even bought it.
EDIT: And the Mo' Creatures maker had to focus only on the creatures, not anything else in the game. Which of course, with your narrow-minded thoughts, you assume Notch only works on mobs.

BOOM. DIS GUY. BOOM.
Please explain what this "BOOM" thing is?
Edit: To Yhunder; Lets break apart the words full time job. Full time = not part time. part time = short hours. Thus Full time = long hours. And it is pretty easy to tell that Notch does not update that much, and when he does they are full of bugs which he does not fix for long times as he adds more content with even more bugs.
Notch may have quit his job, but he now has millions of dollars. He should be appreciative that we are paying for the game, which he seems to not be updating much. While it would be legal for him to stop producing updates at all, it wouldn't be ethical at all.
