Second Snapshot of the Week Released
Yesterday saw the release of the 12w21a Snapshot, which included a number of neat features - unfortunately, it also included a few bugs that made playing SSP nearly impossible for some. Now, in a move not common with Snapshots, a quick-fix has been released for those having trouble playing Single-Player. There's also some other goodies inside - most notably, a surprise with the Creative Mode inventory menu (Thanks Dinnerbone!). Get the latest Snapshot downloads below!

MCX360 Breaks Record, Beats Black Ops
MCX360 has been climbing the charts since launch, breaking records and drawing in more players every day. Recently, it broke another unprecedented record - pushing COD: Black Ops out of the #2 Top LIVE Games spot! Since the launch of Modern Warfare 3, COD: Black Ops has held the #2 Top Game spot for XBox Live constantly.
MW3 and COD:BO have been staples of the XBOX library since launch, and despite some criticisms have maintained their hold as top titles nearly since they launched. Minecraft is the first game to disrupt these titles' seemingly endless reign on the Top XBox Live Games chart. Congrats, Minecraft!

This Week's News Video - Pyramids, Villager Trading & More
This week, David & Toby take an in-depth look at our recent Snapshots, and more - take a look!
Hey what you do is you finish falling then you pause it and go to the menu and open the level again. i have this problem too!
You just have to wait about 5 minutes and it will load i had the same problem
(the unlit redstone torch)
So far the new ore is proving elusive in Hardcore mode, but I didn't get a very good start on the mine so it could just be this map location XD
Huge biomes live up to their name, makes exploration much more appealing and necessary if you want a bit of everything.
Slimes seem to spawn more often, not sure if that's something to do with the snapshot or a previous update.
Creepers don't seem to be as aggressive....I've had one or two totally ignore me for some reason (though one did creep up behind me).
Haven't had chance to test the Ender-chest yet, but I love the idea for SSP. Not sure how it'll work for SMP PVP (owner status maybe?)
Haven't found a pyramid yet, but looking forward to it.
Dispensers new functions are great in theory, but I'm yet to try out the possibilities for them in terms of traps etc.
Had one world crash and die, but it's only a snapshot, so it's to be expected.
would publish the new saver when crafteos, that the books do not come up with the crafting conventional three leaves and wanted saver as books and do new things as I am proving survival mode.
I again apologize for the translation because I do not speak English.

hola que tal, estoy probando esta nueva version y me ha paresido una pasada, muy bien de lo mejor y mis felisitaciones, perdon pero no hablo ingles.
quisiera saver cuando publican los nuevos crafteos, por que los libros ya no salen con el crafteo convencional de tres hojas y quisiera saver como se hacen los libros y las nuevas cosas pues estoy provando en modo sobrevivencia.
nuevamente me disculpa por la traduccion pues no hablo ingles
Ah, So its a good idea just to leave the older ones alone for now.
i have two major projects going and dont want to lose them.
however, it still looks epic.
Afk at wheat farm and harvest for a few rounds. Go to farmer, sell wheat. Go to smith, buy all the diamond you could ever want.
The purpose of mining has now been defeated. To be honest, they need to jack up the prices of diamond and make it so that like one stack of bread is one emerald.
Ok Thanks it was getting really annoying.
and another thing... Multiplayer+Ender Chests= people placing their own ender chest then taking your items?
Worse yet, when you make a dock out of half-slabs, they sometimes fall all the way though and then drown underwater.
That doesn't seem too OP for me. Minecraft is a game of paying off on investments. Finding a villager who will buy wheat can take some time. Finding another who will sell the single item you want (not to mention all the other things you can make with diamonds) takes time. Setting up a huge wheat farm takes time. Trapping the villagers and keeping them safe takes time. All of these things also take effort.
For all that time and effort, you are now rewarded with infinite amounts of a single thing. Sounds fair to me.
