I have wondered this as well. I bought it for my son a month ago, and he said there are a lot of episodes out on the other systems. If I would have known this I would not have bought it on the Wii U and grabbed it on the One. I am not going to rebuy the base game though just to get the dlc. Hopefully soon, and if not oh well they lost my money. I am sort of thinking the other episodes may not come honestly, since we have heard nothing and you cannot even buy the season pass or anything.
I am having the same issue and just tried changing my skin and it says I have to purchase the game to change it... I bought the game back in alpha(through a CC directly on the site) and am able to login and play through the launcher still?
Actually, for me the point is the massive community, I mean, for me, Super Hostile and the entirety of the rest of the free, high quality, user made content section of the forums is more the point than being square, other than the fact that changing the squareness would be a damnfool move regardless.
Also, if I see a DLC, I'm calling in a hack airstrike from my modder buddies and fixing the issue, at least for myself.
You know there will be DLC or an expansion in the works now it's only inevitable. Microsoft has to make back that money somehow, and nickle and diming is what most major studios have turned to unfortunately. You can look at any new title like Destiny and see that(Microsoft purposely left content out of the original as it's on the disc right now and turned it into the expansion DLC saying they are "working on it" and it caused an uproar once that leaked). I will be surprised if nothing comes out in the next year or so.
I just wonder if what was promised during Alpha that if we bought it back then all DLC and expansions would be free will still exist? I bought the game in early alpha and expect them to be free for me and anyone else that did the same, but I am not sure legally that they have to follow that?
I just bought the game a few days ago and am noticing it freeze on occasion and it is very annoying. The first time it happened it didn't autosave for 30 minutes and then froze, and thus I lost all my items and the first cave that took forever to find. Very frustrating. Me and my son are playing split-screen anytime it has happened.
Updated to 8.5 and fixed bugs! Apologies for the long wait as I've been very busy with exams. In a few weeks I will have quite a bit more free time to add much more to the mod.
So did your update today make it work with 1.7? I am confused as the first page still just shows 1.6.4?
Why would anyone be against it? What's your legitimate gripe about it exactly? More than likely updates will remain the same if they are all just ports. If not then they can simply hire more staff with the increased revenue. It's a great thing as it gives more income to Mojang and more accessibility to the game for people. I will get a PS4 eventually and may get it as long as it's not just a port, and actually adds new things. However I wont if not either way it's still a positive thing .
[Server] SEVERE Reached end of stream for /[IP HERE]
Then it seems to be a bug with Bukkit (Assuming your using Bukkit) Many of us seem to have this problem ^^; You don't have to worry though, it does not affect anything and the server should still function perfectly.
It's happening me to me and my two friends, we are not able to connect to my server? I am not using any plugins or bukkit.. Worked back a few versions ago as we all played fine and decided to start a new world. Though we are using 1.6.2 and no Hamachi.
I'll be picking up an Xbox one. It's what my friends will be getting, and I want to be able to play with them.
I also think Xbox has better exclusives.
Unfortunately this is probably what will end up happening, as most people will remain oblivious into looking up what they are purchasing and continue to support a greedy morally questionable company that is hurting the consumer as well as businesses. Microsoft taking a huge hit really needs to happen to show companies we wont stand for extreme DRM that really only hurts the average consumer as the console will be cracked as well as the games within a few month's of launch like always.
Yeah they'll have to give in. Or PS4 will add in those features post launch.
PS4 confirmed there wont be such a thing as they realized the backlash Microsoft is getting from announcing that. So one of PS4's biggest selling points will be the fact it doesn't require online, and you can still play used games.
Seriously wtf was Microsoft thinking here? Used games are one of the biggest reasons to play on a console because of the convenience of going over to a friends house to play co-op and just bringing along your disc. Not to mention how much it will end up hurting locally owned businesses with this crappy model. DRM is getting so ridiculous now almost to the point of unplayable(and actually is unplayable on some games like Might and Magic 5, and Neverwinter 2). I don't know anyone that is actually planning on getting the new xbox at work or out of my friends.
If I get one it would be the PS4 because of Microsofts awesome idea to not allow any used games to be played on it. That means no used games, or bringing your disc over to a friends house to play co-op. So it's not only inconvenient it will hurt locally owned businesses as well.
Put that map in the crafting table and surround the whole thing with paper. It will upgrade your map. They changed it so you can have even smaller and bigger maps now.
Oh wow thanks. Not as bad as I thought, and actually seems better nevermind.
What the heck happened to the map? Last I played it generated as you explored, but now it explores for you and is half the size... maps are nearly pointless now. What was the point of this change? I tended to use them when I went exploring above ground so I could find my way back to my main area. They already cluttered my inventory when I explored far out, but now it will just be ridiculous as well as taking the fun out of exploring.
Ever heard of an emulator for current-gen games that work? Me neither.
The only reason 2013 PCs can emulate games from, say, the PS2 is that current technology is immensely more powerful than the ones we had in 2000. Even so, many modern emulators will still have problems with some of the more advanced PS2 games, such as Shadow of the Colossus. This is the same reason that certain consoles are capable of playing a selection of games from the previous generation. Either the console didn't change enough in architecture from its previous generation, or the game being played is not so demanding that emulation is impossible.
Emulation isn't simply making a program and bam, software from other machines work. It requires similarity of hardware and significant technological advances. Hardware is also notoriously... painful to emulate properly. There's a reason that even N64 Emulators aren't perfect right now.
Actually there are emulators for the Wii and the Xbox(original) of course not for the 360/ps3 yet but eventually there will be.
The PS3 is backwards compatible with most games(the one I have the original fat one) the only reason support was dropped was because they do not want to waste time(money) to keep developing it. It is however very possible. It is actually as simple as writing a program that simulates the engine the games ran on and having hardware strong enough to simulate that engine as well as the current.
Also I am not sure what 64 emulator you use but the newest version of Project64 runs every game I have wanted to play flawlessly(including actually enhancing graphics on games like OoT with the community graphic project).
What people don't understand is that backwards compatibility isn't a switch console makers decide to turn on or off. It's an inherent feature of the hardware matching or not matching the previous hardware. x86 CPUs don't run powerpc executables, there is not a choice here, they just physically do not do it. You'd have to stuff a whole console inside another which is financially unsustainable for both costumers and developers.
The statement the Yogscast came out with is what you call a nice piece of politics. They are pulling the "Ooh poor pitiful me" with some "I have no idea what your talking about" along with a little "It was all for the community". This is all just classic sweat talk people have been using for ages. I don't see what is so hard to see about that.
From what I have seen of the Yogscast, they could very easily do all of what they are accused of. In one of there videos they were at some battleship and they crossed over the barriers and almost went and sat on one of the bomb displays. (Forgive me, I could not find the video but anyone who follows the Yogscast knows EXACTLY what i'm talking about.) That is a perfect example of the immaturity they are capable of and why the accusations are not very far-fetched.
I would like to add next that the main point of the Yogcast's presentation seemed to be how terrible minecraft is and how much better the mods in there YogBox made minecraft. Even if that was not there intention, that is how it came across. And that would make any developer furious. There behavior overall could very nearly be labeled as party crashing.
In the end though the only solid evidence we have is the Yogscast's past behavior which would fit every accusation attributed to them. But we must also take into account that it would make no sense for Notch to blatantly lie over something that could turn out so aggressive. No one would. Nor should we forget that it is a common courtesy that at public events, if your a looked up to figure, and there are young ones about; you hold your freaking tongue when giving a speech and speak like a respectable person instead of a dirty-mouthed sailor.
In the end the only logical explanation available, given what we know, is that the Yogscast played the part of the spoiled famous people and let some stuff slip when interacting with other minecraft fans which, in reaction, Notch got mad about and over reacted on twitter. If you get on someone's nerve from every possible angle then, over time, they will explode. That is exactly what happened here. What needs to happen is for the Yogscast to stop playing Captain Innocent and be the first to apologize. Just like when Daddy breaks up the fight at home, it is only right for whoever caused the fight to be the first to say i'm sorry.
Yet Notch's only response to their denying was stating "I accept your statement" no apologies, no agreeing or disagreeing. Pretty sure it was not as you say it was with "Political smoothness." Notch is agreeing with their response and basically saying he was wrong with his statement.
As well this was all rehearsed before hand, so Notch knew the statements related to Minecraft were coming.
And yes someone would blatantly lie if they were inebriated as it changes ones view of things.
I see one of two things happening, 1st that somebody in the yogscast made a completely harmless joke, and it got passed along and after idk 5-10 mouths it was twisted into something completely different. (Or somebody has a personal grudge and sent that joke down the pipeline to create tension.)
2nd: A tired notch heard one thing when something else entirely was said. Happens to people all the time.
I'm suggesting nobody really knows what happened so, lets just relax and the truth will eventually come to the surface.
3rd and most likely option a Drug induced Notch heard something that didn't happen. Most of this did happen during a party.
How do I report bugs, bug link goes to main wiki page? Found a few, one being lilly pads destroying boats as well as being able to build on top of them. Other being some sugar cane spawns one above the grass tile leaving a empty one between..
As many of you already know, Minecraft is coming to the XBox LIVE Arcade in the Spring of 2012! What could be better than playing Minecraft on your console? How about playing it on your very own Minecraft-themed XBox 360?
How about PS3, a much better console. The only thing the xbox beats it at is games unfortunately.
