now that i have a fortune 3 pickaxe Ive got 200 diamonds but gold is so much harder to find.

please consider a Midus touch enchantment or adjust the gold allocation. I have hundreds of rails from abandoned mines but not enough gold to link up the far ends of the map with gold rail.

If anyone else things gold is too rare please chime in.

I agree, gold and other resources are quite difficult to find due to our compact map sizes. It would be pretty epic if we had some other way to obtain minerals and resources. Maybe a condenser? I'd love that actually.

I'd like to have guns but if not a catapult that launchs tnt for castle battles. Tnt should explode on contact when launched. An 8 player open multiplayer option would be nice too. Only playing with friends is good, but getting 8 friends all on at the same time is difficult to impossible and thats only if all your friends have minecraft. Real looking furniture would be awesome, yes i can create things that look like furniture sort of. Another thing crops, wheat, suger cane, pumkins, and melons are great but living in iowa i would like to see corn, peas, beans, etc. Huge crop fields would look cool but they should not die off over time though or replanting and harvesting would be endless. And how about orchards apple, peach, cherry, and other trees. Another thing that would be great is 2 blocks connected by an axle. Place 1 block on a sructure, power it with red stone and it makes the other block spin. Could be used to make a working wind mill, light house, spinning car tires, and many other things, a repeater could change the speed that it spins at. We need an option to stop anmals spawning. They're great on a farm, but building a palace and gardens and then have cows, sheep, pigs, and chickens walking around in them kind of ruins it.

You can get gold by killing Zombie Pigmen and turning their gold nuggets into ingots 9 nuggets = 1 ingot. And diamond is meant to be rare regardless..Idk

Since we're all just pitching in, I'll just post an idea. Perks to go with experience levels. Like, maybe every time you level up you can add a smaller version of a beacon powerup to your character, then once you rank up more (20-50) you get really good perks and boosts.

I think another thing they should work on is transportation. We should have more ways to travel, like wooden airplanes, basic of coarse. Maybe better boats or even boats we build ourselves and control. Also trains would be lovely who doesn't like a good ole' train. Why maybe a steam train with carts on it. I would love to seem more ways to travel be placed in the game beside riding a pig (Which is still awesome)!

alot of what you just said wont come true (especially the gun part)

we have a steam train. (Minecart with Furnac)
minecart with furnace cant push you up a hill. <==== Pleas fix this!

i have a idea they should add bees and bee hives and if you mine the bee hive it drops honey and 2 wheat makes makes a cracker and craft them together and you get a gram cracker that replenishes 2 hunger the bee hive should spawn in forests and jungles the bees cant hurt but they give you poison for 10 seconds hope you guys lie my idea

i think a lot of these other ideas are going to far Minecraft is about basic survival not going on airplains and having modern stuff if you want that stuff then ask for mods if you want modern stuff then you aren't a true Minecrafter

it would also be cool to have more animals like snakes, horses, bees make it so you can actually see fish in the lakes and ponds, lizards, and monkeys.more foods such as carrots, potatoes, beans, tomatoes, and fruit from trees like lemons, oranges, lime, ect.I agree, gold and other resources are quite difficult to find due to our compact map sizes.

that is kinda funny when on my legit worlds i have a load of gold with no use for it

Maybe this happens at some point but I would love to be able to trigger juke boxes with redstone.

In a perfect world I would also be able to build some elaborate recording device around my music boxes to master it down to a music disc that can be played in a juke box.

For RPG map purposes It would be cool to have some control over editing character stats in a given map. i.e. attack, defense, mining and running speed ect..

I don't mind things being rare but Gold is unballanced (IMHO). They added the Fortune 1, 2, and 3 enchantments and so now 5 diamond ore blocks routinely give me +20 diamonds. The added Abondoned Mines so you can mine for iron tracks. Gold has one main use... making booster rails and at this point (for me) it's more rair than diamonds.

I have three double chests completely full of cobblestone (thats after building multiple massive stone structures) and still don't have enough gold. I know that this is likely just random bad luck (I've found plenty of gold on other worlds).

I just saying since they've effectively tweeked Iron and diamonds by adding mines and enchantments, they should add an enchantment for gold too. I suggested Midus Touch as one possible enchantment.

Since gold returns or blocks instead of particles (like coal, redstone and diaminds) they will likely have do something that makes sence, For example Midus Touch on a pickax migh give you a random chance of getting extra block(s) of gold. The chance would increase with the enchantment level.

i say that they should add spawn eggs to the xbox 360 edition and soon
ive been trying to make a zoo world and that is very hard without spawn eggs

Warhammers, gem encrusted weapons and tools, and yes, butter is WAY too hard to find. Please fix it. Generated structures such as abandoned prisons, which is a small stone brick wall and four towers. Under it would be where the main thing is. Each prison would spawn 10-20 cells. There would be a main hall and cells that lead off the hall. a cell would be an empty room with three walls being stone bricks and the wall between the cell and the hall would be iron bars. The prisons would have lots of cobwebs. There would also be closets. Each prison would spawn up to five closets. Each closet would have chests filled with goodies. Prisons would have skeleton and zombie spawners in them. An option that would be above the tutorial option. Colosseum. You would not be able to build or save here. You would have one life. There would be dispensers that will drop items randomly after completing a wave. Waves would be of varying monsters. The game would spawn only the mob that belongs to that wave. :Flint and Steel:

If 4J adds public servers, organization of what server you want is the key, so I've got some catagory ideas to better organize the servers.

(Menu)
[Single Player] Only sets the world for single player.
[Co-op] Sets worlds for friends and their friends(current multiplayer status).
[Multiplayer] When clicking multiplayer, your sever gets set so that anyone playing Minecraft XBLA that is browsing servers can see yours.

(Click Multiplayer)
[Survival] You want worlds that is currently in Survival mode.
[Creative] You want a world that is currently in Creative.

(Click either)
[Basic] Just have fun, do whatever.
[RPG] This world is an RPG server.
[PVP] This world is a PVP world.
[Survival Island] This world is a survival island.
[Adventure] This is an Adventure map.

(Click any)
Any server that has met your requirements(Say you want an RPG server currently in Survival) will pop up on your screen displaying ALL the GTs that the world is being controlled by. You can scroll down servers you like. When you click it, it wil say the standard stuff(PVP off, Host Privileges Off, ect.) and a description of your server at the bottom.

[Description of your world]
You basically write the description of your world like a sign. Maybe some actions that can make a new line(Blahblahblah P: Blagblah. [P:] being a new line)

Maybe the world name will display w/ your GT. Maybe. I just think that it will be a nifty feature to better organize public servers on the Xbox.

I think I would want a way to craft cobwebs, instead of having to use silk touch to get one, as not all worlds have mineshafts or rather the cobwebs would be limited by the mineshafts.

The recipe could be a 4 point star with the 4 corners empty. I know the xbox doesn't truly use the grid literally but it is a way to show how it would be made if we did have use of that grid like all the other stuff... String at the tips and slime ball for the center. this would make slime balls more useful beyond sticky pistons.

I actually like having more uses for each of the items/ore/blocks we can get. And also mentioned before nether brick craftable with 4 nether rack at least, so we would have more use for that block than lighting is on fire. O_o

Phoenixes. maybe not in the nether but some kind of lava cavern where they drop like phoenix ashes or something useful.

Had an idea for volcanoes (been watching volcanoes on pbs lately)

Ok i know some people suggested volcanoes which would be cool

So my idea is to make a volcano biome where there are obsidian or cobblestone fields and ash falls like snow and even appears on the ground and lava rivers there would need to be some special plant, resource, animal, or mob that can only be harvested from an active volcano biome

Edit: thought of something that could be exclusive to the active volcano there could be pools of sulfuric acid there would need to be a wooden bucket added to the game so players can harvest the acid which would act like water but would sort of burn like lava until you get out but even then it will still damage you for a short period like poison and around the pools there could be sulfur crystals which i can't think of a use for

And there can be a variant of the volcano biome which has an extinct volcano where you can go down the tube where the lava comes out and the walls of it can have various ores and even diamond deposits and the extinct volcano can be surrounded by black dirt which would be more fertile then normal dirt and you would get more food from plants grown on it

EDIT: can a mod or admin pin this thread i think it has grown large enough to deserve it

Craftable nether brick would be a godsend! I'd love to use it more in my overworld but getting it in survival is such a pain even if you know where your nether fortress is seems how it's always teeming with monsters! I'd really like to do more with nether fences and stairs, but since i know that nether brick is a finite resource i always steer clear of making it!

I think this is all stuff you can do/get/craft in vanilla on pc, but can't on xbox.
