• Notch Releases MineCraft “Patch”
    88 replies, posted
For you derptastic people that don't get what Quinns is saying here: In a previous post about the 1.1.1 patch for New Vegas, Quinns said that New Vegas was pretty broken overall. In the comments to that post, some guy flipped the fuck out about it. This post is satire on that. Nothing really to do with Minecraft in general, it just happens to be the next bit of update-related news. And yes, updates for in-alpha indie games are news, especially since Minecraft is so popular nowadays. [editline]11th November 2010[/editline] The comment that this post is satirizing: [QUOTE]And there I was having played 65+ hours thus far with only 2 crashes and no other bugs, damn them for realising unplayably broken games, eh?[/QUOTE] [QUOTE]You know what, I’m tired of this snide boot putting in to Obsidian evry chance you get, consider my sub canceled. I’m sure the tiny tiny loss will mean a lot.[/QUOTE]
This newspost seems more like flamebait to me then satire or even sarcasm... You know to get visitors to come to their site, amassing with flamethrowers and such. After which they have their way with the advertising system at the after party of said flame fest... I was not amused at this unfunny funniness. Now if it was actually funny, I would have been, but... Well there you have it...

[QUOTE=postmanX3;26001305]Except there's nothing wrong with it. The problem is that the people in this thread are nearly as dumb as the people this article is referencing.[/QUOTE] There is a major thing that is wrong with it. It's unfunny and unfitting. People have complained about almost every update to Minecraft, why should this one all of a sudden be special? If anything they should have done it for the halloween update. To make a satire news post about a new update for a game in it's alpha stage isn't funny, especially not when the joke is based on something that has always been there and is thus not really that much to poke fun at.
[QUOTE=postmanX3;26004673]"I am butthurt because I do not understand satire."[/QUOTE] cute
sux plz remove from form i do not liek it so plz do this for us kids. it is bad
Whenever RPS tries to be funny it just ends up being confusing and annoying.
i have lost much respect in rock paper scissors for this article
lolo [editline]12th November 2010[/editline] lolololololololololololololo
You aspie kids seriously cannot wrap your head around the fact that this news article is taking a stab at the shitty minecraft community?
Didn't understand the satire. It just sounded dumb o me, nothing more. Didn't think of NV "mgapatch" for a second.
I see RPS is going all Fox News one us. Yeah, I know it's satire.
I don't get the joke :( [editline]12th November 2010[/editline] [QUOTE=Askaris;25993690]Satire on the minecraft forums being whiny tossers, laugh and move on.[/QUOTE] So that's what it is
I got the joke perfectly, it just makes fun of all whiny people that bitch about the updates, not only on Minecraft, but in any game. Come on, it's not that difficult to get.
It's still kinda weird of them to make a long joke on one update of minecraft. They [i]could[/i] just supply the news instead of trying to get as many laughs as they can.

At the people going "OMG YOU DUMB DUMBS IT'S SATIRE KILL YOURSELVES!": Just because something is being satirical doesn't mean it can't be shitty satire.

minecraft player are autistic so they don't understand the article.
I feel like Facepunch is one of the easiest forums to troll on the net.
Hey, I didn't get the article's satire because I never pay attention to game news. Only reason I even came to this subforum is I saw something regarding the STALKER TV show a few hours ago. Decided to check up on this section to see if any new posts were made, saw this thread, decided to check it out. Was confused by the nonsensical article, since I never read RPS. Only after reading through this thread do I understand they're taking the piss out of the fact that Minecraft's community is apparently bitch-happy, and they're taking the piss out of someone that apparently freaked out about a FO:NV patch. So [b]excuuuse [i]me[/i][/b] for not knowing what the fuck the article was making fun of. No reason to get all hissy about it. :colbert:
Wow, you idiots make me ashamed to enjoy Minecraft take your heads out of your asses for one second and learn what satire is should be even easier to see it, since you're the target of it
[QUOTE=Mutex;26026029]I feel like Facepunch is one of the easiest forums to troll on the net.[/QUOTE] it is because the mods ban everyone but the trolls
what is bad about this. what. i go on this village server a bunch and we built the huge floating city.for some reason, mobs like getting stuck in the platform, turning solid black, turning invincible, and spamming hurt sounds. so i am quit happy for the removal of all mobs. and i just want to say "thank you notch" and sorry for this horrible article's disbelief in you. :worship:
I realized it was satire and didn't think it was very funny. Am a stupid 12 year old now? [editline]13th November 2010[/editline] [QUOTE=Ninjarooster;26033943]I realized it was satire and didn't think it was very funny. Am I a stupid 12 year old now?[/QUOTE]
This is the dumbest thing I've ever read.It's not even funny.
one thing I hate about this update is that when you're fucking digging 70% of the time the block will come back.
nice job bumping the thread. now everyone will think there's a new update out
Sadly, RPS doesn't write it's articles for simple folks, but for people who actually have are willing to read more original stuff. By that I mean that RPS bot should get removed. Yes, I said that - not because RPS quality is bad - it's actually a+ fucking amazing. It's because their articles (that aren't just plain, simple news) just don't fit the general idea of [b]News[/b] node. Majority of FP come here to read news. They get something that, sometimes, isn't news, but a creative article. This causes a lot of rage and flames and stuff. I believe that everyone who loves RPS already have their site bookmarked and read them every day, participate in their community events, comment under their articles. Other FPers just aren't ready to understand RPS-redactors style of writing, or they just want to read normal news. I think that FP will be better without RPS. It's a win-win situation - for people that don't want it and for people who love it (and already have bookmarked). so welp [editline]14th November 2010[/editline] oopsie a typo have are thats what i get for clicking reply instead of reading my stuff one more time
