Dude , you are so wrong , Creative mode is not intended to be survival , is an entire new thing , it will be about creating stuff , survival is about surviving.
That was my entire point. Maybe I could have made it a bit more clear though.
ok A: you cant switch between modes, you have to chose the mode when you start the map.
and B: who said peacefull mode would get removed? creative and peacefull are 2 differnt things, creative is strictly for building with no health, combat, or hunger bar. and peacefull has all of the minus combat
Dude , you are so wrong , Creative mode is not intended to be survival , is an entire new thing , it will be about creating stuff , survival is about surviving.
In creative you are free to build a lot of stuff without having to actually get all that , and a lot of people want that , minecraft is creation , without a creative mode minecraft is nothing , so this is a great addition , i wont use it too much , but some people will rape the creative mode.
Exactly. Creative is for those who want to create stuff, survival is for those who want to survive.
No one said there wont be a peaceful mode. Of course there will be. Creative mode is completely different thing, meant only for building. Survival and creative are meant to be different and are played different, obviously.
People who would use creative, already use \give , TooManyItems, etc type mods/commands.
People who want to play 'legit' don't have to play on creative, just choose your map at the start as Survival and be done with it.
Infinite item mods and flyhacks have been around since ever, and guess what, Minecraft is still going strong.
Creative mode is a very important feature! If you don't like it, stop playing Minecraft if you want, we won't miss you.
Would beta creative finish with classic? If so, it's going to be terrible for people who can't pay for the 'full' version.
On topic, I would also like to see mobs in classic mode. Why? If mob grinders are going to be disengaged on survival, creative should cover this way of monster killing, as well as PvP traps.
surely anything that expands the game and makes it a more complete product is a good thing. even if people chose not to use it, many will. it would be a nice touch if the creative mode could be played in multiplayer too...
ummmm.... creative mode WILL be playable in multiplayer
Two things I have to say about this:
1) you say people will be bored of minecraft after they add creative. Well, do you never pay attention when people upload to the nets all the amazing things people build? They made creative mode for the people that like doing just that. And I personally loved "old old old" minecraft, or minecraft classic. I bought the game thinking that it was classic with the ability to turn it to night and electricity (redstone). That seemed fun enough.
2) if your going to play survival you shouldn't be able to switch into peaceful. That's cheating. i personally think minecarft is WAAAAY to easy at the moment. Peaceful is just rediculous. If your gonna switch back and forth, you have earned the right to be called a pancy.
I like the idea of adding a Creative mode.
I'm not to much of a builder myself
but for though's who are this is awesome for them
now they don't have to go though the trouble of installing
the to many items mods. :biggrin.gif:
With the experience now, I suppose it would make sense.
If I'm correct you gain experience till your character gets killed,
when killed all that experience is lost.
so you have to survive monsters and stuff to gain a better score
giving the game a bit more meaning.
This is the only reason i can think of them getting rid of peaceful.
Creative and Survival are MODES
Peaceful, Normal and Hard are DIFFICULTY
In Survival MODE you can select Peaceful, Normal or Hard DIFFICULTY.
In Creative MODE you can also select a DIFFICULTY, altho the only difference I know of is mobs on or off.
There was a time when Notch did intend to replace DIFFICULTY with REALISM.
Realism would be a slider from Creative to Realistic. The further to the Realistic end you selected the more mechanics there would be that made the game harder including fall damage, hunger etc. This concept was scrapped and the current system of MODES and DIFFICULTYs was used instead.
I am sure the occasional caps in this post will offend some. If so I appologise.
I usually play on easy and switch back and forth from peaceful when exploring and stuff.I like to build and mine and legitimately without mods or hacks, but I don't like being blown up or ambushed by mobs. ._.
But I'm worried creative mode will be too easy. I'm not one for flymod or too many items and destroying blocks with one hit like the old old old minecraft. I like getting my resources, and happily building using my mined diamond tools.
Creative mode isnt for legit play, its for CREATING stuff, if you dont want to spawn stuff or flymod, then dont use it! its very simple. Also, "I like to build and mine and legitimately without mods or hacks, but I don't like being blown up or ambushed by mobs." Dieing and being ambushed is a part of the game, and was one of the fun factors, your not getting the full experience of minecraft if your dodging this fun factor!
Oh, cool, as removing peaceful would strike me as a terrible move.
(Perhaps I should give the hunger setting three choices in the nostalgia project -- "off", "off in peaceful" (so you don't have to deal with your character going *grunt*... *grunt*... if you forget to (or choose not to) eat), and "always on")
If that post is aimed at me, I fail to see how my post was whiny in any way possible.
But the reason why this fear has risen is because there's now creative and people were fearing that since people do most of their creative stuff on peaceful, Mojang would use creative as a replacement for peaceful.
Groundless, I know, but it has a little merit. Doesn't matter though -- peaceful's been confirmed to still be in :tongue.gif:

I'm not offended, and my original post wasn't me whining "they're removing peaceful rageragenerdragerage!" I was posting my thoughts on the idea of removing peaceful and full on replacing it with creative.
"sometimes, wizards are so awesome, it hurts"
and B: who said peacefull mode would get removed? creative and peacefull are 2 differnt things, creative is strictly for building with no health, combat, or hunger bar. and peacefull has all of the minus combat
because in peacefull you still need to collect food for hunger (when it comes out i assume)and can still die in lava

No one is whining, we were just wondering if peaceful will still be in game. And it seems it will.
