Hello I mainly play single player and sometimes I play online with RL friends and we are wondering when if ever we will see any real content in this game.
I have got one update since i bought this game and it was completely lame some note blocks A fish mob that does nothing some dye and cake ? The dispenser is pointless for arrows as it is in accurate when set for a trap.
So when are we going to see some real game play
Boss mobs ? Other NPCs? this is stuff i have read that is supposed to be coming but hasn't even been mentioned more than once.
I have a hard time understanding why people find this to be ok no other developer in the WORLD would have this kind of support with the development we have seen coming out of this "company"
Pile that ontop of the still lasting server issues and bugs and we have one of the most broken games with the poorest support i have ever seen and yet people defend it to the end i do not get it !
YA it was cool for the first week or two but there needs to be much more
where is the realism mode and adventure mode?
regardless of the name it is a work in progress. Right now Notch is on vacation. It is still getting worked on. If you don't like it don't buy beta software.

The problem is that this forum is entirely unpleasable. See, if Notch had used his time machine and listened to what you just said now and done things like put bosses or something in the game, someone else would be complaining that he hadn't made dispensers or water mobs.
So why should he cater to just you instead of making the game the way he sees fit?

This forum ticked me off so much I went to random.org and set my password to something I'll never be able to remember, then switched my password reset to a throwaway.

Why don't you send this email to Notch, instead of complaining here? Because, whether or not it makes sense to you, coming to a community of people who love the game, and most aspects about it, and bitching about things such as Note blocks, dispensers, etc, and asking the same question that a hundred people ask, everyday, isn't going to make anyone happy.
And, BTW - The game isn't meant to cater to you. It's meant to cater to everyone. And, personally, I've seen some badass **** done with Noteblocks and dispensers.
OP is obviously looking for a linear game..... fail.
No I look for a more complete game not sure you really understand what linear is as nothing i stated would make the game linear.
I just simply do not understand why people are so against addictions to the game
adding more features can only enhance game play
If something is added that you do not like you do not have to use it
on the other hand Its not so easy for us to add things we would want to see.
Oh and the comments about catering to me i would suggest looking at the suggestions page and other various post here and you will see that it's not only me.
+ the things i listed are things Notch i guess it is said would be added to the game what promoted me to post this was reading this forum about things notch has said
I was under the impression that the devs read these forums as this is advertised as the forums for minecraft right from minecraft.net community and it saying "notch reads these"
And the post about things notch has said so i thought this would be the place to post
as well as get some serious feedback guess i was incorrect
note on grammar because i know its coming this is a message board not an essay and i am simply not worried about grammar here just worried about getting my point of view across.

That's exactly my point, actually - if you go look at the suggestions page, you'll see tons of suggestions. There's no way Notch could do all of them. And if he chooses to do some and not others, then the people who didn't get what they wanted (like you) are going to feel left out. Seriously, he can't please everyone.
It looks like you're new to the forum, so if it feels like you're getting a bit of a hostile reception, it's because these topics come up over and over again. I know that I, for one, am frankly tired of the endless flamewars, and I don't really like it when people come along and just stoke the fires again. Granted, that probably wasn't your intention, but that's how it comes off.

I don't know about you, but I liked the last content update, and so did a lot of people.
Back to the topic at hand. I can't provide any specific dates for future updates (probably soon after Notch gets back), but I can tell you what we can expect in the very near future:
A: There is a new secret block that has some useful function "makes the game easier" but "may not make the cut"
B: Wooden Halfblocks probably
C: Fixed fence bug (hopefully)
D: Redstone repeater, delayer, diode
E: Spiral shaped chunk loading.
F: Fixed the bug responsible for squared edges occasionally on biomes (hopefully that means caves will be more continuous too)
G: Infinately burning logs and wood blocks fixed
H: Scroll buttons in the texture pack menu
I: A new launcher [Source]
Keep an eye on their twitter pages, most of this info comes from there.
What's in Minecraft at the moment is indeed real, it's not a figment of your imagination. This is the way the game is played, this is Minecraft... if Minecraft was supposed to have Boss NPCs, quests, etc. then wouldn't it?
Sure those are all great additions and could possibly be implemented to Minecraft. You bought the game as is, you bought Minecraft and if you didn't like it's 'unreal' content maybe you shouldn't have bought it.
There will always be new content as long as Notch continues supporting Minecraft which I don't see stopping anytime soon, he has a lot of ideas and suggestions he would like to put in. It just takes time and consideration.

thanks for the links but i will not hold my breath on it
if it come great then i would be proven wrong how ever until i'm playing it i hold me statement
Quote from nickguletskii »
I laughed at how you said some things are lame and you are suggesting overused ideas which are, and proven to be, lame.
also about the things i listed
adventure mode realism mode and boss nps these are things
NOTCH not me said would be in the game so troll harder please
As well as flying quest and rpg like elements all things NOTCH said would be in the game go read the things notch has said topic top of this forum.
do some dam research before you post people post like the one i quoted here are USEFUL and HELPFUL
the rest are junk and just waste space.
And Notch didn't say they were going to be in. He said he was considering ideas and hasn't made a definite decision just yet.
Besides, the waiting will make the update all that much more worth it. :smile.gif:
SIGH
Storyline, quests, mods:
TheBigB: "Hey, will there be a story-line? Will there be quests? Will there be support for mods? Is it true Minecraft made you a millionaire?"
Notch: "yes to all questions" (Nov 09, 2010)
Jademalo: "are you still planning on adventure mode as well?"
Notch: "yes, but not before beta" (Nov 08, 2010)
Friendly mob towns, flying, realism, boss monsters:
biggiemac121: "What are some features you plan to add to Minecraft in the future?"
Notch: "well, friendly mob towns, some way to fly, a realism slider, and a super dangerous boss monster." (Nov 03, 2010)
Boss monsters:
MiniCunga: "Will you make boss monsters at some point?"
Notch: "oh yes!" (Oct 28, 2010)
Realistic mode will include temperature effects:
[redacted]: "are we ever getting temperatures as in e.g. freezing to death on tundras?"
Notch: "In Realistic mode, yes." (Oct 26, 2010)
nomslurpees: "the other thing, I'm sure ppl mentioned it, is survival w/ hunger. Don't eat for a day lose 2 hearts... I'd love that..."
Notch: "I think that will happen actually. I'm changing "difficulty" to "realism". Lowest setting = creative. Highest setting = starve" (Oct 22, 2010)
I dont think i need to keep going with this but yes he did say it would be in the game
Edit
I am going to stop responding to people who are unwilling to take the the to research what they post as it only waste time

Wrong Beta is supposed to mean Feature complete
Beta is meant to iron out bugs and server loads / stability
If you are going to try to defend it at least know what your saying before you say it
otherwise you look like a trollolololol or fanboy
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
HAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH.......HA!
sad but this is the most useful reply so far
well every time someone complains about the lack of updates the updates get delayed by 1 week.
