I have a question.
Is Multi Player LAN going to be implemented in Mine Craft at all? I'm just wondering and I have never played Multi Player of Mine Craft before.
So if anyone knows whether it will be implemented or if it is already possible please let me know. I want to know if it is going to even happen at all. I just got a friend of mine to play this yesterday and he has been on a lot since. Me and him were taking turns each hour and want to know if LAN will be possible. Before he buys the game.
So please answer and not about useless stuff I don't want to know.

Already possible my friend. If you go to where you download minecraft from on the main site you'll see there is a minecraft_server.exe also. Download that, make a file on your desktop(call it anything you want) place the minecraft_server.exe you downloaded into that folder and double click it. It should then begin to make a few more txt files etc in the file you created like server.PROPERTIES, ban list, white list etc. After you have done setting up the server you need to download Hamachi which is a free program allowing people lan support across a wide variety of games. http://hamachi.en.softonic.com/
Download and install, open it up and click "create new network" once you have created it get your friend to download it and join existing network and use the User and password that you used to create your network with. Get him to join the ip nest to your name in Hamachi and LAN should work.
you can't really connect by lan like in Halo or CoD but you can make an "ofline" server , like a private server , so if that is what you mean?
p.s. sorry for bad english i'm dutch
Don't let him confuse you, if you have don't have an legit copy of minecraft in the server property file you change Onlinemode: from true to false and it will allow people to connect with any user they want.
Eh, no, well, i was suggesting that Multi Player LAN should be in Mine Craft, and... I don't know where this goes so...
And thanx thuglyf
I tried that ages ago but our Internet would only connect to 1 computer then as it wasn't wireless. Fixed that so before we were trying Hamachi with 1 computer on Internet. I'll see if I can figure the Hamachi out, and heres hoping Notch adds a LAN officially for the game.

I still can't join multiplayer, I don't know how.
Maybe Notch will add easy multplayer creating and joining. If so, I may be able to actually play it, if not, well...
multiplayer is not really my thing unless it is just 2 player and with someone I know.
Notch, please add this.
I'm good with computers but I need general info on what to do. And when implemented, you'll have another buyer, my mate Mitch will buy this game.
Although, he might anyway.
If this gets implemented (A simple way for mutliplayer) I'm donating some money for it, because I may not use it much, but I feel that it needs to be done.
