Aye, but a MMO (to me) is a game that is multiplayer at all times. Asheron's Call comes to mind...
Cynicism aside...
MC has not had an update since 1.2.5 If you're saying that the "snapshots" (or test builds) were buggy...well that was their purpose.
The only problem I can see is lack of communication between the testers (us) and Mojang. Which is why I suggested a playerbase group that could bridge that gap.
I am going to assume this was just a loaded sentence. Because they have added much more than ...emerald.
Again, I do feel bad that you folks can not experience the game now. Since the 1.3 release only issues I have seen are the Nether bug, and water damage. Doesn't mean the other issues are "unimportant" or anything, just that I have not experienced them. Again, that group of players who could talk to Mojang would come in handy...
Two things:
1) I run vanilla, so any modifications I will have no idea if they are sending data via net.
2) Snooper mode should be somewhere under options, I do not remember off hand exactly where. (Options in MC that is)
Well I am neither a big nor small company. I run a personal server that 10 or so folks play on, none have them have "suddenly croaked for no reason"
As a matter of fact, any online (MMO or otherwise) game I have played; never have I "suddenly croaked for no reason". Hell even the current MC release, I die cause the Nether isn't loading properly.
Look into how servers operate, in general. Once you understand the basics, you should be able to find a server that is run properly.
Well, since ye are not the only player of Minecraft I would have to say that suggestion is not too valid. What happens to all the folks that like playing with their friends? They should not get to enjoy a game, because you don't like multiplayer?
Just don't play multiplayer.
And don't open your map up for LAN play...
wow servers always died without warning. then again to me they are a **** company. i played rift for a short while, and it was way more stable.
and i don't play multiplayer, which is why i was conserned. but i hate multiplayer because i have a horrible wifi, mostly on my ps3 and ipod, so online play is a waste. my connection drops out whenever it wants, so even if i knew anyone i could play online with it would be pointless. and nearly all my bad experiences with games were from online games. so i have a bit of an issue with online anything in games.
but anyway as long as my map stays mine i'm happy.
and another poster mentioned core support, i have been wondering if it would ever get that at all. i have a quad core machine, so maybe the stutter is mostly the multi cores, if so then i have to give it a shot at least. and i have more then enough ram for minecraft to eat.
This update has added so many great features.
I am aware of the bugs, but I just really don't care.. Anything critical has not happened so why I should be worried?
Anyways.. I got better fps, no need of optifine(I tested it and fps didnt increase anymore because 1.3 did it) But optifine is still useful in many other ways.
Yet, no chunk lags, no crashes.. Some mobs are laggin' but just a little... And creating world is really random..
I just have to say.. I forgot every bug because there's so MANY new awesome things! And before we even notice, an bugfix update has been released..
I totally agree Jared & fatass (not mean just ur name but without the mr!) My minecraft is TERRIBLE NOW! Do many "internal errors" as I've already said, my computer freezes when I try to connect to a server (but about 10 second later because my computer stopped taking 5 minutes to unfreeze) and takes ages to find a connection and before this update I got them in seconds! Jared, fatass are you on Windows 7, Windows XP or MAC? Because I have XP and my friend who use Mac and windows 7 have no problem at all!!!! Tell me what you guys are on please!
Has anyone gotten the glitch/load where it takes absolutely forever to log on to a server?
It's taken me 20 minutes at a time to log on.
Second glitch, has anyone found a desert temple, gone down into the TNT pressure plate, and has his/her game lagged out? My entire test 1.3 world was corrupted. Any help? I mean, I don't need the world back, it was basically just flying around and exploring 1.3, but that's strange, in my opinion.
Ikr it's so annoying me and my best friend are TRYING, to start up a sever and we can't coz the 1.3.1 server update hasn't come out! An why is minecraft down I mean, I can understand them shutting down for when Notchs account gets hacked but this is for no reason! Unless its for bug fixes then shut down as much as you'd like Mojang!
This was a terrible idea... i cant stress it enough.. you should have given people the option to play it like it was... is it really that difficult to program, because if it is maybe you need to find a different job
I agree
Again I agree
then why dont you downgrade.today i tryed my minecraft and it said. minecraft cannot connect to minecraft.net. i tryed restarting my computer, downgrading but it doesnt work. i dont know if its just down or not but i went to minecraft.net and it was woking fine. help please.
i can't log in and my skin does not show, what the heck is going on with the 1.3.1update?
i try to log in but keep giving me error, does the server is down?
thanks in advance
I have a problem of minecraft 1.3.1 too! it just wont load or it just wont update! most of the time it just wont update
This happened to me too but for 1.7.3! I had to change my .minecraft to a non read only then I could update! Try this by right clicking your .mincraft folder, going to properties, and down the bottom should be 2 boxes that say hidden and read only just untick read only!!!
MC 1.2.5 ran buttery smooth for me even with HD texturepacks and a ton of mods. MC 1.3.1 runs really lousy even with default textures. Laggy and choppy gameplay is no fun at all. Seems like Mojang shot themselves in the foot with this update.
I'd suggest to Mojang that they hold off on the updates until they are proven to be rock solid and represent a significant quantity of new improvements and content. The mod community is what turns the otherwise incomplete, beta-like, boring and stale vanilla MC into a complete and exciting product. Introducing useless emeralds (only one new ore?!?!) is hardly a reason to put out an update and cripple the mod community for several weeks. Mojang needs to step up their game. This update is a mess. It is unacceptable.

Now the whole world stands on the brink, staring down into bloody hell. All those liberals and intellectuals and smooth talkers - and all of a sudden, nobody can think of anything to say.

Updates and I definitely have a love/hate relationship.
