I really hope not.
I've never played through an actual zombie siege on the PC version, I've seen it happen in Let's Plays a lot though.
It doesn't seem like it really adds a level of challenge, it looks more like it just adds a level of annoying. It'd make for an interesting game mode, like something similar to tower defense, but as part of normal gameplay, I'd rather not.
Especially considering the size of our worlds? Imagine you spawn in a survival world with only one village on your map, and a zombie sieges overruns it before you get a chance to interact with villagers or help with fortifications. Assuming the trading system is coming to Xbox, you've now lost any chance to use trading, barring using creative to spawn more villagers.
Idk, I'd rather just not see zombie sieges. Zombies hostile toward villagers sure, give the golems use in that regard. But no sieges.
Hopefully 4J realize this, and add zombie villagers to heal. Then you wouldn't have to worry about losing your village because you can simply start a new one by securing and curing two zombie villagers. For those who don't know what I mean, here's a direct quote from the wiki:
Zombie Villagers comprise 5% of all spawned Zombies. They generally behave as ordinary Zombies, but their character model's head and face is reminiscent of that of a villager, especially the nose. Zombie Villagers may occur in normal, hard, or hardcore game modes.
Zombie Villagers can (but do not always) result from Zombie attacks on ordinary Villagers. If any type of Zombie kills a Villager, there is a chance that the Villager will transform into a Zombie Villager (100% in hard difficulty, 50% in normal, 0% in easy and peaceful). This often occurs during sieges.
Zombie Villagers can be cured by throwing a Splash Potion of Weakness at them, then giving them a Golden Apple by right-clicking on the Zombie Villager with it. A loud hissing sound will be heard if successful, and the Zombie Villager will begin to shudder. The transformation will take around 3 minutes, during which time the Zombie Villager will still attack and must be protected from other attacks and Sun damage.
Cured Villagers do not retain the same trades they had before they became infected.
If the Zombie Villager is wearing any Armor or wielding Tools or Weapons, those items disappear when the villager is cured.
nice all this stuff sounds super awesome. plus i noticed the iron golems. cant wait for all this new stuff.

Well even though I couldn't see what the person was talking about in the pic, it is good to know...
Thanks
And what chikkabowwow said, I have to agree, although I do play on easy.
If they do add them I just hope that zombies will not break doors down on that difficulty at least. That really should be left to hard...
I am currently updating a village and definitely wouldn't want my poor villagers assaulted from siege... due to the fact doors in that instance would not matter.><
Aslo what toasty said...I hope that is the case too. Although having professions would be nice as well..lol

idk what bowow said but what ive seen from the pc version they can only break doors on hard or hardcore. on easy and normal it will only give the appearence of them breaking down doors but when the door is about to break it just resets.

well bowwow's post is at the top...lol of this page...><
Anyway, yeah I know it is like that on the pc I just hope if they do add it, it will stay the same, but that will not stop the zombies in a raid from destroying the villagers... Siege zombies can spawn in places normal ones can not. This includes inside the houses of those very villagers...><

just looked up sieges. and yeah those are annoying. when im working on my world im making there is zombies everywhere. ts annoying but i kinda hope they add it because i think that would make my zombie survival map (Nuketown Zombies) harder than it already is and some people say its to easy so sieges would step it up

Well that you would have to have an actual village for it to happen I think... So I hope being able to relocate villages and create your own will be added soon, if not in the next update.:D

I'm kind of mixed. I think it would be cool to add, but I agree that it could get annoying easily. It was just a thought. Do sieges only occur on hard?
That would be a pretty cool idea for an Xbox exclusive gametype though...Sieges.

The good people, they always die. And the bad people do too...But the weaker people, the people like me, WE have inherited the Earth. -Morgan Jones
I disagree with what most people are saying. Sieges to me are a good thing, they give you a reason to actually care about these guys and not just use them as an unlimited trading source. It'd be more fun to protect them than to just know they'll be fine 24/7. Plus, I believe in 1.2.1 it was added that villagers will have children if there is enough room in the village, so even if some die from the siege they can just make more. Give or take there is enough room in the village.
Well that you would have to have an actual village for it to happen I think... So I hope being able to relocate villages and create your own will be added soon, if not in the next update.
no you just need villagers. my world was in creative and i made my own village. then zombies started to appear like there was no tomorrow

sieges appear on all dificulties. but they only can break doors on hard and hardcore

I think the idea of having sieges is awesome. I tend to spruce up villages if I can and this will add to the fun of it. Making walls (not to hugs.. maybe 3 blocks high) and gates is always fun especially with a reason. I am all for sieges
i agree with orb. it will bring more challange to minecraft. more fun to minecraft

But see, to me, having to find, corral, and heal new villagers is just another level of tedium. It's a long, drawn-out process which doesn't add anything that I personally would consider worthwhile to the game.

Huh? never heard of that before... Not even on the pc edition....O_o
That almost doesn't make sense... unless you are talking about how you place them. Like on the under side of blocks.. But I thought you could do that now...hmm.. would have to test that theory.
The only upside down stuff I know of that are on the pc edition, Vanilla.. are the slabs, stairs, trap doors, and 1 other that I can't think of at the moment.
If it happen to be in a recent snapshot, then no...
If it is not what I am talking about then I have no clue as to what you are referring...
