yeah. especially since the game fully releases in november that doesnt leave much time for many more updates.
Just because it's fully released doesn't mean it won't have updates after.
To the OP- Can I have a source? I haven't heard anything about the actual 1.8 update day.
Well it says on the site it says for as http://www.minecraft.net/about.jsp "For as long as people enjoy and purchase the game, I will develop extensions after the game is done." So I think we can expect more content even after the game is finished. :biggrin.gif:

There will be more updates after the release, multiple interveiws have said that the release is just a "milestone" and is removing the beta tag, they WILL update.
chill out guys, the reason it is getting released in september is because it's going to be rather big and notch will need a couple months to finish prepping the game for "release", and really, 3 months for what it's going to contain is reasonable, and don't you complain about not leaving time for more updates, there will be expansions after release and content still coming, but believe it or not, there is more involved in a release than just a few bug fixes... (even if it is just a milestone)
I'm going to hack bedrock in then surround myself, after hacking infinite armor, and a pumpkin, plus layers of obsidian over the bedrock i am sealed in, so I won't die. *stomach growls* ...NOOOOO
I don't mind waiting until september, just imagine that you had never heard of this update. I'm sure you would be perfectly happy with minecraft at it's current state.
I heard that someone else heard from someone else that the 1.8 update will break the current save files. Anyone know if there's any truth to that?
Jeb did say that there could be chunk errors in old maps that explore to new areas, but he said it would still work. Also; He said that notch is looking at expanding Biomes and such. So it might be best to try and MCEdit your old stuff into the new version of the same seed after 1.8 comes out.
It really makes me want to just stay in a confined area until 1.8 comes out. I was going to build a subway to a snow biome but it might not be in a snow biome after 1.8 . Heck, my current tree lodge might be in a snow biome after 1.8... That would suck.
Oh well. I'm still looking forward to everything that will be in 1.8, I just wish it would be out sooner. I also wish it was my birthday and Saturday morning every day. :wink.gif:

I am disappointed.

I am just disappointed that it will take such a long time for the next update to be out.
Why does everyone want to spam November? Like seriously. I can't buy all the games I want because I'll be busy playing other games.
Support Coloured beds!
school holidays and ****, means their stuff will sell heaps better.
but if you are alpha you dont?
there's a difference between an update and an expansion.
Now we have to wait a bit longer but who cares?
The longer Mojang works on the update ,the better it (should) get(s)...
