Will tu9 bring knew achievements.... this means alot to me because I'm a major achievement hunter...... also will villagers be breedable soon, how come mobs don't attack them, and how come they stray away from the village over time????

I have no idea whether new achievements will be added. As for villagers, they are currently running the same AI that they had early on in the PC edition. Improvements in their AI as well as zombie sieges (when the mobs start attacking villagers) were added to the PC game later on than the current version equivalent for us. If you want to check when certain features were added to the PC, the Wiki has a version history page as well as lists of changes made at the bottom of the various individual pages. We are currently at the approximate version equivalent of 1.0.

There will be no new achievements. Achievements can only be added to a game via DLC. TU9 is not DLC, it is a title update, thus, there will be no new achievements.

es no beuno!!!!!!

And wow almost a year and we are just now getting to the first major update for mine craft....... can't wait for whats to come...... and as for dlc, all they would have to do is add the new skin pack and with the new skin pack put some acheivements.... they would still work with having to buy the skin pack right.

I really have to question you logic... A year?! Hardly... But I guess this upcoming one is major to you. To me each Title update that happens is a "major" update. That is basically has been every two months so far... With a bug patch a month after each.

Now if you are talking about what they are adding... not really.. The last major one of 1.8.2 when the terrain gneration was changed. That was a whole lot then what they are adding in the next one. That was like less than half a year ago though...O_o

So confused....><

You just made me as confused as you.... also logic on update ever even update is a bug fix update and ever odd update is a new update.

also not saying every update isn't a "major update" I'm just saying why aren't there achievements.

you didn't mention achievements in what I quoted....

I was just confused about why you said a "year"...O_o when it cleary hasn't been harldy a month or so... since that last update, but major update couple months ago... something like that...

Oh well... As for achievements to me it makes sense why they haven't due to what the others have mentioned...:D

If they did that they wouldn't make that extra buck. But there should be some kind of system to where you can earn MSP by playing games. Just much harder than getting achievements. Achievements are to easy in my opinion. I got all the MC within 1 day

There is a system for that. Once you get over 10,000 gamescore (insert over 9000 joke here), and you're signed up for the rewards program, you can earn back a certain % of the MS points back off a purchase. I don't know the exact details, so you'll have to look them up else ware your self (or another person on here can fill you in on it) but yeah, they do have a system to allow you to "earn" back your MSP.

This is the link that goes to the Rewards Deal:

It is a rule by Microsoft that achievements can only be added in DLC. We will never get achievements in updates. 4J has already said this before.

I'm sure like most companies, 4J would want the achievements to pertain to the DLC. Take Halo for exmaple. When they release achievemnts with their map packs, the achievements are for the map packs, not other areas of the game. If or when we get DLC, the achievements that are added will likely have something to do with the DLC.

There have been many major updates to Minecraft already...

I don't much care for achievements but yes, it will be nice to have some more in the future. It seems like mc has very few compared to other games, or maybe that's just me. You can always make up new achievements for yourself...

Minecraft has so few because its a arcade game

Other xbla games have many acheivements (only one i can think of off the top of my head is raskulls) yet they do have to protain to the dlc.

Halo reach and 4 do not do this those acheives can be obtained on any map (ex halo junkie) I would think 4j would want to stick with mojangs acheive standards.

And also when a say a year I mean its almost been a year since this first came out on xbla..... I'm not a time traveler Tamorr

Halo Reach and Halo 4s achievements that say "On 'insert map pack here'"must be done on that map pack. For example in Halo 4, the Pigs Fly achievements "In Majestic DLC matchmaking, kill 3 enemies while they are using Jet Packs" must be done on one of the new Majestic maps.

If 4J ever adds more achievements with some DLC, the achievements should pertain to that DLC to make people try it out. For those who are achievements whores, they would have to use the new DLC in order to get their achievement.

the only thing they would do that for would be a mod (hahahaha I know it want happen (O,_O)) but as for reach i have almost every acheiv and I only have on map pack.
