Minecraft Chat Thread v68 : Jeburary edition - Games

[QUOTE=DJswitch;37592570]I remember when Minecraft had just released it's full 'offical' survival mode, Alpha. The game was small in terms of gameplay back then but everyone practically worshipped Notch. Why today, does everyone call him out for everything? Minecraft was pretty much like Terraria when it first came out, a developer who didn't know what to do and just fleshed out their ideas a little too much and ended up disappointing some people who expected more out of the game. After this post, I'm going to take a vacation. [IMG]http://gifsoup.com/webroot/animatedgifs7/3156854_o.gif[/IMG] [/QUOTE] It's because there use to be weekly updates full of secret funstuff. Then notch started taking vacations [I]constantly[/I], and updates slowed to a snail's pace. There's an image somewhere of his vacation time vs his actual working time. I feel like people are mad at MC 24/7 now whenever they add anything; I really enjoy the updates myself. Mojang could have dumped Minecraft and never updated it again after the "full release" at 1.0, but at least updates are still coming. [editline]8th September 2012[/editline] [QUOTE=VitaminAG;37592833]So I found a really cool way of making "classes" without plugins. [IMG]http://i.imgur.com/Or6IJ.png[/IMG] Stepping on the pressure plates makes the dispensers spit out a stone sword, swiftness potion, iron boots, and leather pants.

That's actually where I got the idea from. But I wasn't sure where it was from before.

It would've destroyed Mojang's reputation as a developer if they stopped.

Actually, it was a PVP map that he did with other Minecraft youtubers.

That new redstone block is faulty in multiplayer because there still isn't an option to target the player who activated the block.

I usually agree with what you have to say, Zero-Point, but right now it's coming across like you think you own Notch's ass because you bought a copy of his game. Yeah, he got bored with Minecraft, but he's still the one who gave us this amazing toy to play with.

[QUOTE=TheSporeGA;37594074]That new redstone block is faulty in multiplayer because there still isn't an option to target the player who activated the block.[/QUOTE] We already discussed this. People said it wasn't very possible because redstone doesn't carry the activator.

Recently found my old minecraft account after ditching it because I got bored fast, and I ended up playing for 6 hours today. :v: I'm not very good at it though. I build a cobblestone warehouse where I had a lava and water pool, a LOT of torches, a chest, furnace and crafting table. There was a small hole where I had previously mined, that went to the deepest it could. There were ladders leading up, and again, a shit ton of torches. I ditched that since I had nowhere else to go, started exploring a bit more. There was a small opening where I could continue searching and mining so I built a cart system from the top of the tower to the area. I dug a bit too deep, got caught off guard by a skeleton and zombie without my sword out(I actually forgot I had one too), and I almost died so I decided to run off into a nearby hole and maybe keep myself there with a block above me until I healed, ends up it was a huge lava lake and I dropped at the very least, 180 cobblestone, and a lot of other stuff. That was my end point, I still got a few more tools from trees I built before I left the game though. I'd love to play with some facepunchers, as playing SP is kind of boring.

[QUOTE=TheSporeGA;37594804]But that can be changed.[/QUOTE] If you redo how redstone works entirely, yes.

[QUOTE=TheSporeGA;37594804]But that can be changed.[/QUOTE] Two people press a button at the exact same time. Now what? What about inverted circuits? Pressing a button that turns a torch off, which turns a torch on. Is it going to carry through all that? What about something like a BUD? How does it know who updated that block if it's a piston that did the updating? It's not simple, and it'd probably lead to more problems then it's worth. Just put the player in an airlock and use @p

Oh the woes of coming back to minecraft after a year without playing, and installing Tekkit. This is some crazy shit.

Actually, does anybody want to play minecraft now? (Not sure if a server is required, but I don't have one nor can I host one, my settings are wonky so it won't letme host in any game.) Add me on steam if you want to play

Two things: 1. Mirages exist in this game, as the Void looks EXACTLY like water. So when you're in a supergiant biome world looking for an ocean for 3 hours, you start to go a bit crazy. 1a. Fuck the void for the above phenomena 2. I'm planning on making a giant 50 block diameter underwater dome. And then I did the calculations on how many blocks it would take. I am not going to enjoy making this dome [sp]Hint, about 25 stacks of glass[/sp] :suicide:

Hey guys, I'm getting a Minecraft Error 503. And it seems that Minecraft.net is still up. So something must be wrong on my end, but I can't figure out what. One second I was playing on my favorite server the next I got an end of stream and can't rejoin any servers. Googling this just lets me know that it's because of the minecraft server, specifically their authentication server, being down. However, no one else I know is getting this error. What should I do?

I keep getting this whenever I try to connect to a mp server: [img]http://i.imgur.com/lxG4W.png[/img] Any help?

I can confirm it's happening to me too

Same here.

I'm getting a failure to login when I try to join a server.

Would this be a neat map for that Saxton Hale type of event? [url]http://www.planetminecraft.com/project/floating-island-survival-605997/#comments[/url]

I can connect to mp now

Still having the issue. Agree/disagree?

[url]http://help.mojang.com/[/url] It's been on and off at least 80 times every single day of minecraft multiplayer existance. Jesus H. Christ, Mojang. Get your fucking shit together. Failed to log in: Error

The login servers are down. It shows you the actual status on this site. [url]http://xpaw.ru/mcstatus/[/url]

[url]http://www.planetminecraft.com/project/floating-island-survival-605997/#comments[/url][/QUOTE] Well that idea actually came from my attempt at running it on my server, but sadly it was flawed. I think I still have some handmade arenas for it hold on let me check.
