(01) Will minecraft PC and minecraft xbox SMP be compatible?
Xbox & PC SMP are not yet available.
(02) How will we get texture packs and mods?
Texture packs could be built in or download able.
There is also a possibility of being able to transfer packs with a flash drive/internet
Jeb is working on a Mod API.
(03) How much does the game cost?
1,600 MS-points (20 $)
(04) When was it released?
May 9th 2012.
(05) Will the xbox version have SMP?
4 Person Split-Screen, 8 person xbox-live multiplayer.
(06) Is this an Indie game?
This game will be in the XBLA (XboxLiveArcade) So it will not be an indie game.
Australia/Ireland/etc will have access to the game.
(07) How will servers work?
You can set your game to invite only and you can invite friends, or your friends can join your game randomly.
(08) How will we protect against griefers?
Invite people you trust. You can kick people by pressing SELECT/BACK.
(09) PC version is better! Using a Chatpad sucks!!
This isn't really a question, but
Xbox has a Microphone along with anyone who has a chatpad.
The only incompatibility will most likely be between Xbox and PC users talking. One with mic and other with keyboard.
(10) How would we transfer maps from PC to Xbox?
Maps are not yet available to transfer to the game.
(11) How will the kinect version work?
Kinect is not available currently.
(12) Split Screen?
The xbox version does indeed have split screen. 4 person singleplayer, and 8-person online-multiplayer.

(13) Who is making the Minecraft xbox version?
Notch is not, 4J studios will be making it.
Source
(14) How will we get our skins on the Xbox?
Maybe in the future you'll go to minecraft.net and set up your Xbox Live name to your account, then when you open the game you'll get your skin? This feature is not currently available.
(15) Will I be able to buy the game with my unused giftcode?
No, giftcodes are for the pc version. The xbox version is not being made by mojang and you will not be able to enter a giftcode anywhere. You will use your xboxlive account and buy it with xboxlive points.
(16) Do I get this free/discount for being an alpha buyer?
No.
(17) When we start a world in multiplayer, will it be reset everytime we start a server, or can we select the saved map from a menu?
When you select what world you want to play on, you can check wether you want it to be"online" and also if you want it to be "invite only".
(18) What version they will be releasing on Xbox?
Beta 1.6.6
(19) Xbox Avatars or Steves?
There are steves, Depending on how many people join is what skin they are assigned, in order.
Order: Plain-Steve, Tennis-Suit, Tuxedo...
(20) Will minecraft be for PS3 Also?
Minecraft is be an Xbox / PC / Pocket-Edition exclusive game.
Notch signed a deal with Micrososoft. Its Exclusive.
(21) How will crafting work?
Like this:

(22) Will the xbox version also be bi-lingual?
Most likely, The language changing was created by jeb asking the community what the translations were to help him accurately translate the items names. It would be quite simple to change out the item name as it is just simple javascipt rather then reconstructing new blocks with new names. The name of the item is changed depending on which language you have selected.
(23) If PC users and 360 users can connect to the same server, can I prevent 360 users from joining my server?
With the minecraft-vanilla-server software, I doubt it. Just like servers cannot detect if a person is using Linux, Mac, or Windows. Same thing with Xbox. Though people will most likely make a plugin for Bukkit to block people, just like there are already plugins for bukkit to see if people are using mods on there client. Though nobody really has a reason to make a plugin to detect Linux, Mac, or Windows. There will probably be one to detect the xbox.
(24) Will _____ item/mob be in the release?
It will be when the game is updated the the version the item/mob was released in.
(25) Will I get an Xbox achievement if I have ____ mod?
No, you may get an ingame achievement, if the game allows mods, but you will not get an Xboxlive achievement for it. If a mod were to give you an xboxlive achievement the mod would be modding the xbox rather than modifying the game, which is not-allowed.
(26) What are the Xbox achievements?
Getting Wood - Punch a tree until the block of wood pops out.
Benchmarking - Craft a workbench with four blocks of wooden planks.
Cow Tipper - Harvest some leather

If a player does not have an HD screen and purchased this game prior to the notification update, they are eligible for a full refund through customer support.
(30) How do we change our skin?
You can change your skin via the main menu. There are currently two skin packs out that you can buy.
(31) Will the worlds ever be infinitely large?
Probably not, As the xbox has limited space, unless users have an option in the future to allow more harddrive space to minecraft storage.

lol. delicious, delicious, irony.

Please do this.

I'm not a coder, or much of a artist. The least I could do, is get my friend Arioch to help me put this all together, The Ambience Guide. The goal is to help users..
Me and Arioch are going to be putting together a MAtmos custom sound library to help Minecraft have great ambient sound effects, we are as well going to put in a very nice soundpack, that sounds more realistic.
So, me and Arioch present to you, The Ambience Guide. With this guide, in the 3 simple steps, you're Minecraft will look better, and sound better, hopefully.
Step 1 - Making Minecraft Look Pretty
This part will have nothing made by me or Arioch, credit goes out to everyone who made these great mods/texture packs!
The first thing needed to help Minecraft look pretty, is a texture pack. I'm going to be giving out options to everyone with different machines.
The most recommended pack for the full experience, may be a little CPU-hungry.. It's Aza's Arid Pack! This beautiful and vibrant texture pack is full of rich colors that look great no matter what you do, this will ofcourse require McPATCHER by Kahr, which you can get here. http://www.minecraft...-hd-fix-236-03/
Aza's Arid Pack is a 128x128, please use it if you know your computer can handle it, get it here.
http://www.minecraft...id-pack-65-wip/
Is your computer unable to run a 128x128? Why not try out a 32x32?
Summerfields, like Aza's Arid Pack, has beautiful colors and textures, whilst being less stressful on the computer by being 32x32, it still requires McPATCHER which can be gotten from above. Get Summerfields here - http://www.minecraft...-550k-download/
Can't even run 32x32? You poor soul, don't worry. We thought of you too. We have a 16x16 texture pack ready for you.
We just didn't think that long about you, sorry.
blahblahblah by Gazzzah is a very nice texture pack that doesn't stary TOO far from the normal minecraft feeling, of-course, if you're sticking to 16x, you may as well stay to the basic texture pack.
Once you have your chosen texture pack installed, and McPatched, it's time to move on. Let's improve Minecraft's "ambience" with some more.. aesthetic stuff!
A basic mod I recommend is the 3D items mod, this is a small thing, but it is very nice to have.
You can get this nice mod by Quintinity here - http://www.minecraft...tems-v12-forge/
It's a personal thing, if you don't want it, don't get it.
Sonic Ether's unbelievable shaders is one of the most core parts of this mod, this mod changes the shaders up, allowing DYNAMIC, SHADOWS in Minecraft. You can get it here - http://www.minecraft...c-shadows-more/
ted80andModderkip's Better World Generation mod is one of my favorites of all time, it brings back some of the 1.7.3 generation, allowing better beaches, and epic mountains like it was from that version, while still keeping all the new biomes, etc. Why not have a better looking world too? Get it here - http://www.minecraft...rge-compatible/
Advanced HUD TurboSlow allows you to change up the HUD to your liking, a very nice addition. Get it here - http://www.minecraft...ts-ooh-and-aha/
Step 2 - Making Minecraft Sound Nice
-coming soon-
Step 3 - Posting Your Swag
Once you have everything set up to your liking, post some pictures, videos, reviews, etc. We have a sound pack and a ambient sound pack coming soon. I have a video coming soon once we get the sound pack and the ambient sound pack completed.

The forums are no where near faster, they are actualyl slower, the images refuse to load osmetimes. The layout is god awful on all posts, most things are broken.
I have about had it with Curse. I will seriously leave this forum if I do not see a revert or MAJOR improvements.
I have seen ZERO improvements ever since Curse got involved.
"Improving performance" is a dirty filthy lie.
Edit: Why the **** is my profile photo my avatar?

Damn. It didn't do anything.
Well. That genius plan didn't work.
Seemingly?
That wall IS useless.
Oh what am I saying?
It has a use!
Trapping you inside!
**** NO.
That PDA could be important, and you don't want to break it!
Are you serious? A hydrogen bomb would probably kill you too!
