Excuse my ignorance please as I'm new to the wonderful world of minecraft. First time I've played it was a few days ago on XBL but I already have been sucked in
After a little research I understand that this XBL version is in Beta and not in full retail version that the PC is in. With that said, I was wondering why my worlds keep looking somewhat redundant? I keep trying new seeds to bring up something like an Amazon Jungle and it keeps popping me in worlds with lots of sand and very similar worlds to other random seeds unrelated to a jungle biome.
I was hoping for something with awesome coves, beaches, hills and great tall dense trees. Am I out of luck for now?
pretty much stuck with it till we get caught up with the computer and get the jungle biomes and so on. for now if you want dense trees just use the saplings from the trees you cut down and plant them in rows that should work.

So it sounds like you're saying we basically only have the Forest, snow, desert basic biomes in this version huh? Does anyone know what build the jungle and other cool biomes were added?
Loving this game by the way, really hoping the Xbox version gets caught up with the PC version at some point. This game is just so killer and I'm hoping for longevity. Really hope the devs support it for a long time to come.
yep those three are it for now. not sure when the others were added. Played a bit on the computer myself but never kept up on the updates. Might be the one in july coming 1.7,3? not sure though.
Xbox will get caught up just takes time once it does though its gonna be great,even though its great already ha.

Did some more research in the wiki and it looks like more biomes were added in the adventure update Beta 1.8 (we're currently in Beta 1.6). The bad news is the jungle biome wasn't added until the full game version 1.2 or something near there. The good news is the adventure update was chalk full of cool features so that's something to look forward to soon. I think I read somewhere the adventure update was coming to Xbox in the near future possibly after a patch update but don't quote me on that.
Gosh I really can't wait to have the jungle biome though, I saw some vids of it on PC and it looked so unique and entertaining.
