This is not about MC being Beta. This is about the devs making tons of unecessary changes and additons, when they should be polishing the game right now. Minecraft has been in development since 2009, now, two months before release, they decide "hey lets turn minecraft into something different and add a lot of funy stuf"
they added what they said they would be adding for months.
funny stuff? only funny things i can think of are the golems(craftable only, so notfound in the "wild") and the mushroom stuff, which i hear are rare as ****.
being a beta tester is a *****, isnt it? you guys know this is all part of the same one adventure update, right? they said they would be splitting it up. you guys are so ungrateful. a couple problems and you jump up their asses before they even have a chance to fix anything. wait for the release and if they still have major problems then you can *****.
i still dont know what all the bitching about endermen is all about. i built my house on top of a mountain. sheer cliffs all around it. found small part of my house messed up by endermen. put water on my house's roof and lit inside better, no more problems. maby 1 or 2 blocks missing from my path from my house but thats it. and they are everywhere, i always see them when i leave my house at night playing on hard.
im sure he is an old timer who bought the game a long time ago when the price was cheaper. i did but i dont remember how much it was, certainly not $21.95.
BETA means crap It's just an excuse and a cop-out ... I gave them money in hopes it would help in developing a better COMPLETE product ... I'm not getting that.
There is alot of stuff going on but everything is all over the place. They keep adding new stuff which is either broken or breaks something else.
Keep adding new stuff and your asking for a LOT of troubles. If you are building a bridge and halfway through notice your off 3 inches to the left you don't continue with the build until the old issue is taken care of. Continuing to build and not fix current issues is a recipe for disaster.
they are not going to pull a perfect game right out of their ass. its in development. you knew what you were getting when you payed for the game. i know i did. dont like it dont play anymore.
So they add XP orbs that cause lag and serve no purpose yet .. why?? To test a incomplete feature??
Then they nerf mob spawns and don't implement breeding??
simply pathetic.
Just doesn't make any sense to me.
They had time to a re-skins and create nether mobs, add new nether items, create a snow-golem etc. but can not find the time to complete a feature before adding more to the game ..
Mojang really REALLY needs to get their act together. There needs to be some sort of system where new features are added AFTER old ones are complete and bug free. As it stands now it all so very chaotic.
If the 1.9 update is going to be released so soon after the 1.8.1 update, it might be possible that they were being worked on ether at the same time or right after one another.( Which might explain why the 1.8.1 update arrived when it did.)
Needless to say, I hope its the 1.8.2 update, from the sound of it, 1.9 would set the progress of the mod community back quite a bit, which would be quite saddening. :sad.gif:
I will say however, that the nether improvements and the snowman addition look impressive.
they did say the whole adventure update was too large for one update, which is why they split it up to 1.8 and 1.9.
i fixed mine while watching one of xs' new minecraft videos. i updated my java to sdk 7(i believe, i dont remember exactly), changed graphics to fast, changed performace to max fps, and changed render distance to normal. used to crash every 2 minutes before, not one crash sense doing this.
i think it should have a quite whispering sound as its milling around. then go quite as you look at it, then scream as it teleports to you. also, i think it would be better if you look at one, other in a certain block radius will attack as well.
If you want a challenge you shouldn't be playing a game based around internet Legos. The charm of Minecraft is its simplicity and flexibility as a creative building environment. I have 500+ hours into it, just mining and building crap.
The more complex it becomes, the more it loses that charm.
then revert to a previous version. you had to have known when you bought it that it would be updated with new features, it being a beta and all, right?
I honestly don't think I'm the only one who would be pissed off if the game I paid for released and then crashed on me within the first 5-15 minutes of game play.
im lucky if i get 5 minutes. this memory bug pretty much made my minecraft unplayable.
