I love these "will it ever" happen threads. The only truthful answer has to be "I don't know." Anything could happen; but whether it will ever is anyone's guess. 4J have announced that their current plans are to update the XBox to match the PC version 1.2.3 (although some features, such as a larger world size, remain in doubt due to limitations of the XBox 7-year-old technology). After that, they want to do some things on their own and have indicated that they are paying attention to some of the suggestions coming from the forums. That's it, that's all.
I don't see how we are going to get commands, unless you want to spend five minutes typing in a command. We'll probably have spawn eggs in the 1.2.3 update or possible update after 1.8 and before 1.2.3.

Thanks for taking your time to write this. I guess waitting would be the FASTEST way to see if we get commands

Got a USB keyboard it will only take 5 seconds not mins. And iv'e heard about the mob eggs.
I was think more of night time,Teleporting,rain.snow it goes on but im gonna say. never mind.
This was a bad idea to even post about it. Im pretty sure this is over all a PC mod
I doubt they'll add commands that you type on a keyboard but its possible that they might add the options to disable weather or change it to day/night as a host option later on.
4J has come up with new ways to do many of the PC options that work with the XBox. Crafting, upcoming Creative mode. I'm sure they will come up with some way to support this on some level.. It may be awhile but I wouldn't put it past them to work it in there.
when you are sitting on the MC360 welcome screen, one of the fun messages it shows in yellow under the MC logo is "keyboard support"
has anybody actually TRIED plugging in a keyboard and activating the command line UI?
I have a usb plugged in and use it all the time (I like signs). Have never tried to activate the console though, didn't even think to try since it was never mentioned. Will try it in a few hours, and if it works (which I doubt), I'll make sure to let EVERYONE know.
And as a keyboard user, I'd love console commands as an option.
The add-on "chatpad" is a full qwerty keyboard that attaches to your controller. Works great for quick n simple text entry. I have one and find that it is my go-to controller for MineCraft. Never even considered trying console commands though!
Maybe most the MC fanatics here use a chatpad, but I doubt the majority of MC players do.
I don't.
And I don't think most people will spend $20-$30 for one for a $20 game.
If 4J was smart, IF they added "commands", they would have them in a selection menu that you can operate with the controller and not have to type anything (KISS, people, KISS).

I think a selection menu would be such a great idea.
Something like a drop down menu of different commands listing the things on the bottom of what you can do with said commands. Maybe this would look to clunky and complicated but I don't know.
Soon as i find out Yes or no, you guys can put the lock on it or whatever.
Will xbox ever get to use commands like spawning monsters and other things like the PC?
Thanks

So if you wanna lock this mods go ahead.

Retired StaffThanks my good supporters.
I just thought it would be pretty cool to have commands or whatever.
