either deal with it or clear cache to go back to "vanilla minecraft". also a lot of people specially people who play minecraft on pc 1.8 update change everything.
The end result is, nothing got "ruined", buildings didn't disappear, etc. It just snowed.
Christmas is coming. Relax.
Not physically destroyed, however aesthetically it can be just as depressing...
How would most people react if their nice bright shiny red ferrari was kidnapped during the night and returned to them painted a horrible smudge of brown and green...
Hey they shouldnt care because the car is fine right??

PREACH!! It's like people come on here to boost their fragile nerdy reputations by upping their post-count. If you are posting in here not providing information just to antagonize the victims of a dilemna, then your missing the point.
The guy has invested 8-10 hours a day since may. You know what they say, time is money and with that in mind maybe you can understand the loss he is feeling.
Exactly, im not crying or ranting i want to find a way where it makes sense and it can be resolved, have ever played the PC version? I havent so im totally unfamiliar but someone mentioned being able to 'switch off' biomes? If its true, maybe that option would become available in time?
Your building ability must lack skill in general, becase if you built anything decent enough to have ruined to make you contemplate quitting than you'd know where i stand. Go build something nice, and watch it get ruined, come on here and post to be told to stop crying. Kid, go build something. You dont know who i am, and you dont work for 4j, so what ground do you have to tell me i wont get a refund? I can promise you i wont stop until i do you punk.
would you invite me in your game and let me put snow everywhere and save the game? NO! I can prevent people from doing that will all the new features, but i cant prevent the game from doing it itself? And what makes you think they coldnt just do this allover again, that if i 'stopped being a dram queen' and spent another three months 'working around it' that they wouldnt be abe to do it allover again!
I told you how you can work around this. It's not hard placing a layer of glass at the world height, it doesn't take three months to do. It actually would take a few minutes, half an hour at most, especially with Creative. You can save those three months of work with just a bit more time.
As for you getting a refund, you're not getting one. I believe that the agree you make when you buy the game, or anything over XBL, is that there are no refunds available. That's one thing against you. Two, they haven't ruined your game in any way. You might not want to place those few hundred blocks, but they haven't stopped you from placing it. Three, they warned you of this. We've known this was going to happen since September 2011, eight months before the release day and eight months before you bought this game.
You agreed not to want a refund, they warned you of potential changes, and you ignored them. You are not getting a refund.
But continue on, please, waste your time getting angry at me though. It's clear that you love wasting time.
I feel your pain, brother. My underground city is positively and permanently ruined beyond repair because of this stupid freakin' "Void fog"! Stupidest feature in minecraft EVER!!!!!!!
Well you bought the game for $20. Per your post.....we will say you have put in 700+ hrs on it. You definately got your moneys worth. Good thing Mojang and 4J don't charge by the hour. This game is evolving just as it evolved on the computer. Tons of Awesome stuff to come. Out dated code to be replaced. We have all lost of few things along the way. That is the way it is...Looks like you have been in the forums for a while now. It has been common Knowledge for months now that the weather change was coming.
Didn't read every post so sorry if I'm repeating...
But it's been known for MONTHS that biome "weather" might change on any given old map. This happened on the PC, it's a consequence of changing formats. In case you haven't noticed, they're following the PC version almost to the "T" in regards to almost everything.
Don't be all upset because now it's snowing. Not like TNT exploded where you built, it's just snow.
And sorry to say but your snow problem means nothing if it's a consequence to improving the game... It's snow...

If anyone wants to play Bauldur's Gate (1, 2, or enhanced) or Icewind Dale PLEASE PM me. I'd like to play.

a glass layer at ceiling is not a solution. its a bandaid for a more aggrivating problem. What is i make the glass box you continue to sugest and they decide to add a lava biome underneath it? your not getting it
You don't spend the time designing and building and creating in Halo as you do in Minecraft... Some people treat their Minecraft creations as a work of art, your comparison is negligable.
And the principle is the same, from a business stand point it is forcibly changing a product you have already sold AFTER the purchaser has spent time & effort making changes. If the update was optional it would be different, but it wasn't.
Just because you're treating like a work of art instead of a game doesn't make it a work of art. Also, many people do spend 100s of hours playing Halo (They perhaps shouldn't, but they do nevertheless.) Perhaps, you just shouldn't have invested quite so much time in a "game" world.
From a business standpoint (and I've been in business a LOT of years now), I've lost 1000s of hours of work work to software updates. "Forcing" people to update software has been a part of the computer industry for as long as I can remember. In my experience, if it's on a computer, it's NEVER safe.

I figured it would be something like that.
Weather != part of world generation. It is a dynamic aspect that is able to be influenced.
Christmas wasn't supposed to come to a tropical island
never see snow in desert?
On to the next Creative explosion!
Good Luck.

Once again, somebody who can't grasp the fact that 4J told us it WOULDNT affect existing worlds..
did you read every 4j steve said? he said he look into it.
