Ask the Pocket Edition Devs (almost) Anything!

This Monday, Minecraft: Pocket Edition developers Johan, Tommaso and Jens will star in a panel broadcast, live from the Mojang office. What will they be discussing? That’s up to you!

They are hoping to harness the collective power of the Pocket Edition players to submit questions to this reddit thread. Then, they will pick the best ones and put them to the team live on air. While the exact time of the show isn't currently known, the archived footage will be uploaded later on, just in case you do miss it.

This is all in celebration of hitting over 20 million sales of Pocket Edition just a few days ago. As mentioned in the Xbox 360 Edition post, Mojang is extremely grateful to all players for their dedication and creativity. Without that, Minecraft wouldn’t be anywhere near as significant as it is today.

Head to the reddit thread and submit your questions! Then check back on Monday for the live stream/archived footage!

Congrats PE! I'm amazed that the phone edition has hit more than PC to be honest, but it's still an amazing achievement for Mojang

It's really awesome that Pocket Edition has gotten so many sales so quickly! I've bought and played it, but I own PC edition so I'll usually play that instead. It's still a really great app though, and can keep you entertained for hours.

The reason Minecraft PE has gotten so many sales is because it's easier to have access to a smartphone then a PC. Not solely because it's better.

Who said it was better?

I am a big MCPE fan and prefer it over PC. I love how fast it is progressing, the mobility and the controls. But I will not lie, PC is definately better than all other versions. No need to second think that.

The pc version is better because it's more open sourced - they can only do so much on ios (andriod is a different story). that, and because it's been out for longer. MCPE will no doubt soon rival the pc version on its own regarding content. I enjoy being able to play minecraft away from home so having it on my phone is a big plus.

Yeah sure I go to reddit to ask some guys questions, if the questions are borderline negativ the fanboys and whiteknights over there nuke your question into invisibility... grats Mojang for hearing on those mentally stubborn plattforms like reddit.

I will post this: I know that witches will be in 0.14.0, along with the Survival inventory in Creative (which basically implies dropping and stacking items in Creative.) But I was wondering what Redstone related things will be in the update, if there are any, (I have a feeling this update is connected with "phase 2", the second Redstone Update mentioned in Redstone Mansion, which says it will have Repeaters, Comparators, Droppers and Despensers) and I was also wondering if you could give us any hints on the estimated release?
