Sooo I kinda hear that the xbox version will be compadable with PC servers. So if the server has mods you should still be able to connect? Or will you still have to be on a P.C for that.
The reason I ask is because a big part of Xbox live is MULTIPLAYER and without a good admins/mods I find the multiplayer lacking. I start building get some good looking stuff built log off log back on to everything destroyed and only things I have left were in hidden chests. I love playing with people but there isn't much I could have done about that. Some traps but they respawn come back and take and DESTROY. So three choices build server, PVP server or Hardcore server and I die randomly... alot. There is no real pvp/build server
On the darktide server you can trade gold for coin then coin for sponges, sponges for perks. Like LWC(locked) chest or protected land for personal use or more space for the same price for village land (need more people to buy it to balance it out.) Or yardsell so a sign could buy/sell items. There is no safe way or really much of a reason to trade with players. I hear that the development team is leaning away from featurers and working more on gameplay. Well your multplayer by itself is LACKING. I think this game could be HUGE on xbox but as you can see there arn't as many posts under this topic other than "Is there going to be split-screen?" and wondering how it is going to work.
Don't get me wrong minecraft is Awesome. But playing minecraft on xbox with a BUNCH of vainila servers scares the S**t out of me.
On a side note you fixed PvP alot with the way food works and the way bows work *cough* a sheild would be nice. j/k blocking is enough
on a side-side note I support Split screen :tongue.gif:

What I've heard is that...
1) It's suppose to be compatable with PC servers (meaning that if a server has anti grief plugins/mods, then they will be in effect for xbox players as well as the standard PC players).
2)I don't know about the split screen, but i hope there is split screen.
Well, split screen might not work. Because you might have to log in to your minecraft premium to join pc servers. Wouldn't the other person have to do that also?
Okay, I wanna say this now.
what will PROBABLY happen is that with games like minecraft on consoles, will have the game make it's own server, so you can only invite friends, they could make dedicated servers, a whole bunch of them, but they are a small company, so it will probably be all private, and you don't have to worry about the community
Lol kinda proves my point I touch on the lacking of multplayer without admins tools and everyone is still fixated on split-screen and PC compadability.
To make what I said up there shorter. With admin tools you can make this game what you want it to be, then share your idea with others. Not only buildings but gameplay style. Each server on the pc kinda feels differnt from other servers. (Other than greifed servers) With the Xbox you can main steam this idea to others and not just a few of your friends on a 8 man server that lags.
I would love to host my own server, create my own start city(that they can't destroy) and dungions with some kinda prize at the end. It might be diamond, maybe exp. People could join it easyier then "whitelist".
But without admins tools I will only beable to survive OR build No PvP arena with the roof that opens letting out hundereds of animals before the fight.

worst idea ever.... this is outrages me. I dont think minecraft should be playable on xbox its just like trying to order something from a drive thru when a mexican chick is there.. its WRONG!! just straight up wrong its not meant to be played on the xbox and should be better left alone. :dry.gif:
You have 24 to 64 friends online right now. Please be my friend. j/k you sound like a smart ass. I have 41 players on my xbox friendlist and 0 are on in the morning and 12 are on by time I go to bed all are activly online usualy with in a 24 hour period (some stay on offline mode to avoid annoying people so I don't even count them) May point is a friends list is overly simplistic
You can't get 24 people to not destroy some buildings, to not steal from some chests, to not kill you while trading, to not go beond a point. I'm not trying to build something I am trying to control a small community of people. Tools are tool you don't HAVE to use them, but they are there for your convenience.
And xxDoctorRedxx go back to your post. : P Just kidding. But I do disagree. And when I can connect to a pc server with my xbox me and my 2/4 split screeners will camp you ALLLllLL day. : )

DoctorRed would you stop posting about the Xbox version already! It doesn't affect you in the least and a lot of people wanted to be able to play on a console and before this the closest you could do was use a controller on the computer.

Its called a friends list
split-screen is confirmed

Minecraft on the xbox is not stupid,
Most-likely you will be able to connect to PC servers.
