Wow, people. This thread was posted in November, and the recent posters think that the people who posted when this thread was started think that they don't know anything.
- Hosting/Server add-ons
No Bukkit or other server add-ons. A greifer's paridise.
- The community
Not to generalize but the XBox comunity is a group of people who go into a coma if they spend five minutes not killing somone in a video game. These people are very apt to be greifers. (Keep in mind I own an XBox and live, so i've seen it firsthand)
- Joining servers
It's a pain to find your XBox's IP (And alot of XBox'ers won't know how to do it) OR the server you join will be random. Also not a very good idea.
1. Just because you dont know of any anti griefing options in XBLA Minecraft doesnt mean they arent going to be in the game. Most of the time you will be with your friends rather then a random. Even if blocks get removed, I doubt its going to be pure vanilla. Greifing is the most obvious thing about Minecraft or games simmilar to it. You cant blow it off that easily.
2. People arent going to bother killing if your in a world 1000+ blocks away from them. If they want to kill they, will play CoD. The groups are not 'different' in any way. its the same players pc or xbox.
3. THIS IS AN XBOX, NOT A COMPUTER!! You NEVER need your friends ip to join their games. What makes you think you need the ip for your xbox when the Xbox has a Join Game option? Its a game console, not a Computer. Random is an option to find a server but for Minecraft i would see a list system like Borderlands and i thought i heard something about a Favorites but im not sure. Its a Port over, not an entire recode.
4J Studios have ported games over before and their working on a pc game. Its not hard to figure out what should be added for the flaws of the pc version
way to generalize console gamers now do you want to generalize every pc gamer as a nerd with buck teeth raging at his keyboard everytime he doesnt find diamonds so shut your mouth console gamers are just like pc gamers, not all games are shooters for instance i know a ton of people who play full house poker (Xbox live arcade game) that doesnt involve shooting now does it!
OP is an idiot who stated issues, that according to current known features are not really issues, or he made up some issues that dont't exist.
please let this thread die
Also, here is an awesome suggestion I had: http://www.minecraftforum.net/topic/1745550-biome-effects/
