itt we minecraft

tell me about this game because i'm pretty sure i don't understand it at all

I suggest watching a video walkthrough. It made the game make more sense to me. Not sure it made me want to play, though.

will do.

not like i need another addiction right now tho

This is the one I watched:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VWWpdNAbe4Y

apparently i have to leave my hidey-hole and go caving to find minerals. i'm afeared.

(of getting lost, mostly)

from the wiki: "Alpha also places a heavy emphasis on creativity. Players must devise methods of building functional and navigable structures that can withstand the nightly assault from various monsters. The player's short reach and short jumping ability forces players to plan structures carefully, lest they trap themselves or fall to their death during construction. More advanced players can create complex traps and mechanisms using the game physics as well as primitive electrical circuits and logic gates."

^^^ is the kind of thing I was getting at in my thread This Game Could Be Your Life. I mean fuck, I would love to be able to build logic gates in this world...but damn that is going to take a lot of time to do!

wow @ ^^^

though that strikes me as no worse than someone spending their leisure time whittling little figurines out of wood.

My housemate is obsessed w/this game at the mo. I had no idea it was so popular. I saw him whacking away at rock/trees and was like "this looks dull, wtf is it?" til he showed me other ppls made towns and I realised... its like a Sims/Simcity/Oblivion meets DOOM thing.

so it's like build your own rollercoaster theme park meets plants v zombies?

Not quite... more like if you set SimCity in Dungeon Keeper?

Which makes it sound terrible! But it isnt.

it looks oddly compelling

Yeah its strange how addictive I can see it being cos it is so ugly and simple.

damn I just wasted 3 hours playing this...

why don't the trees fall down when you chop them

I don't understand why they don't, because the sand blocks fall when the blocks underneath them are removed.

this game is dead to me

apparently the guy who made this game has made millions off of it in a really short timespan

no matter how many of these videos i watch (especially the circuitry ones) i still don't understand wtf is going on

just bought this game after seeing this youtube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LnjSWPxJxNs

dude obviously spent hours and hours working on that house only to accidentally burn it to the ground loll

pretty hysterical yes, but still don't understand wtf is going on

the 16 bit alu one especially i watched really fascinated and totall lost

It seems to basically be like a Sims/Simcity/Dungeon Keeper hybrid. Would that cover it?

Wait, I already said that lol.

tbf i don't think i really want to get this cuz then i'm gonna play it

I'm not going to buy it either - I wasted enough time dicking around with the free single player version.

I can attest, this game has the ability to keep you up til 3am...
.

...fucking around with Java trying to get the free, in-browser version to work on Ubuntu.

gave up, instead just watched youtube videos of it and read a related thread on metafilter... \O_o/

uh just dreamt that I was playing Lego Minecraft.

this game is amazing

ive been really into this lately heh

itt we minesweep

It just occurred to me that this is the one game where you can literally beat griefers with sticks.

Game is such a pain in the ass until you get coal. Usually not a problem but sometimes shit doesn't pan out and you're stuck huddling in the dark for like 4 day cycles. Booooooooo.

If you can't find coal, you can provide some light by either burning wood in a furnace or setting blocks of wood on fire with flint and steel; be careful with the latter because the fire can jump to other flammable things within range, like the walls of my first house.

so it was discovered that the developer of popular multiplayer server software 'mcadmin' put a backdoor in his server to give him god mode on ANY server running mcadmin. his reaction? FURSECUTION!!!

vv i found this awesome displayname in the dissassembled mcadmin source code

Dreamt that I was making Molotov cocktails in Minecraft...

Famous last words... This game has taken up a lot of my free time in the last month.
Actually I just used an inventory cheat, which is the usual signal that I'm done with a game. At least for the moment anyway. I did give it a good send off, packing the tunnels of my minetrain with TNT and then blowing it all sky high so there was a huge rift in the ground with water pouring in from the sides. That's something that the game's website doesn't really mention - the possibility for causing massive devastation. Picking my way through what had been a 3x3 tunnel was just awe inspiring.

Just when you think you've got away from this game, it sucks you right back in again...

this game is fun! been playing it a lot lately. though i admit i'm a sucker for any game that uses procedurally generated worlds

also it seems like it's super-scalable, as in, he hasn't even come close to maxing out the amount of terrain types, craftable items, monsters, etc before the game would start to feel overstuffed. it still seems pretty barebones to me.

Jesus, that Zelda world is insane

...and yet empty

well bye bye productivity...
1.2 Beta updates

so i've only just come across this, not played it yet, but it looks mightily interesting. anyone still play it?

do you play it online with other people, or is it better to start on yer own?

i haven't played it in a month or so but it's still fun, especially if you can get a few friends in on it and run a multiplayer server. it's the type of game where you have to create your own fun though since it only takes about 30 minutes to master all the survival stuff and then it's just about exploring/building/whatever

my only interest in this game is watching griefing vids on youtube

I still play this sometimes. My PC is p-slow though, frame rate drops off whenever there's a big hole in the ground.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P3Ci09GwAmg
!!!!!!!!!!

wow

o no - http://www.eurogamer.net/articles/2011-02-21-minecraft-hitting-iphone-ipad

Ok, i'm now hooked on this

I volunteer at a middle school and a whole bunch of kids have gotten way into this. Which is awesome, because 4 weeks ago they just played shitty Flash games from adult swim over and over in 'lab time'.

This game is still eating up a huge chunk of my time.

i never got around to trying this, might do tonight.

what's the addiction?

You can build whatever you want (if you can get the materials). You fight monsters. It's possible to devise your own machines to automatically kill mobs. There's the exploration of a procedurally generated world which can be vast.
Basically I knew I was hooked when I was digging directly underneath me (never do this BTW) and fell down the hole into a huge cavern. From there I explored a huge underground cave network, not really knowing where the hell I was, until I came across a vertical shaft. I looked up and saw... daylight! Building a staircase up the shaft, I reached the surface and managed to navigate my way back to my base. It was one of those "wow awesome" moments that games often strive for but rarely deliver.

It's the fun of building or tunneling out something extravagant, then getting bored and either flooding it or setting it on fire.

I want them to institute muskets and horses next.

tangentially related at best, but one of the Facebook pages I run for work gets fucking SLAMMED with spam offering free Minecraft accounts to gullible tools who hand over their FB logins/personal info/god only knows what else. like at one point a few months ago we had 18,000 inbound referrals to our page just from ONE scam site, and there are like 5-8 of them active at any given moment.

The 1.4 beta test vids with the new "wolfies" look amusing.

i think i understand the concept of this game. what i don't understand is why the graphics are so exaggeratedly crude.

you know one (1) guy does all the coding right

one lone fucktard

oh i thought it was essential to the gameplay or something.

that guy's also currently a millionaire

one lone fucktard millionaire

Minecraft makes $350k a DAY, dude probably has millionaire butlers by this point

Where are the latest stats for purchases et al?

http://www.minecraft.net/stats.jsp

1954 players online, in 652 servers.
5919511 registered users, of which 1731266 (29.24%) have bought[*] the game.

In the last 24 hours, 35859 people registered, and 8466 people bought the game.

WHOA did they all buy it for €14.95 or are there discounts or w/e cause thats like $40m

*launches career as indie video game developer*

no dude is a millionaire now and getting courted with a shitton of venture capital cuz there's a perception he's a potential "next zynga"

have not played this but it looks p far out, like tapping into some deep down game play realities

i did download it a couple months ago but couldnt get it to work after like one min so i gave up

w/e prob im never going to spent hours chopping trees anyway, but i do like the vibe of this conceptually

dwarf fortress is still so much better

dwarf fortress is still so much better
man... right? :( i want minecraft to win but :/

df is great but minecraft is a more fully realized game imo. it's almost unplayably clunky and not even close to completion. don't get me wrong, i've wasted many hours on df, but i always get frustrated and take a long hiatus after the first few fortresses or so

by the way, what servers do most of you use? i'm on the reddit one (c.nerd.nu), mainly because i don't know of many others

oh i thought it was essential to the gameplay or something.

tried this last night, and I think you're right. Maybe he's trying to keep it avaiable to lower spec machines, which is a good move.

Like it, but I only played the free browser version. There didn't seem to be much else to do other than digging and building. Are there enemies? I never came across any.
Is there like limited resources, as i was happily building whatever and it didn't seem to limit me.

Will give it another crack soon

yep Ste, you have to mine for your resources and there are enemies that come out in dark places and at night. Loads of other stuff in the beta proper too. ( and multiplayer of course)

xp to flow, I'm looking for a good straightforward smp server. how is the reddit one? don't want anything with too many rules, cliques, crazy mods, ppl getting butthurt about their precious creations. just vanilla smp

xp the enemies/resource limits/crafting/redstone/etc. are only in the full beta version

i always think its fascinating that the ppl who play this video game are always really super pysched to use it to build replicas of buildings in other video games

this was my vote for biggest disappointment of the year (tho I ultimately changed it to FFXIII). just so much promise (esp since it was first introduced to me as a first person dwarf fortress) but in the end it's a really shallow game. i guess exploring all the procedurally generated landscapes is enjoyable but after a few gameplays i really exhausted all the content.

Mordy, have you played multiplayer? can be really entertaining, particularly if two towns decide to declare war on each other.

I haven't, but I can't see how that could be fun -- is it just a bunch of avatars jumping around hitting each other with swords?

New update's out

Beta 1.5 is out - expand your super anal railway system with the two new track pieces.

sidescroller style minecraft terraria released and it is all sorts of fun

1.6 is out! trapdoors:-))

Did anyone get an ILX server going in the end?

Not that I know of. I read somewhere that hosting a Minecraft server really chews up bandwidth, something like a terabyte a month even with only half a dozen users.

Also, I'm off this now. Nothing wrong with the game, in fact it's the most fun I've had playing a videogame in a long time. But I can't justify the amount of time I've pished away. I actually deleted my save files, then not one hour later found out about the upcoming 1.6 update. Must... resist... nnnnrrrrgghhh...

trapdoors! lol, no you're better off leaving it, at least until 1.7

pfffft... I might check back in when they add pistons.

...appeared in a dream I had last night. And the 1.8 update isn't even out yet.

notch made this for ludum dare this weekend:

https://s3.amazonaws.com/ld48/index.html

Can you beat it?

Really cool physics-based game mechanics. Wonder if any of them will find their way into Minecraft.

Yeah, I like the skating puzzle, as simple as it was, though I didn't figure out how to kill the golden beholder without taking a lot of hits. Maybe by switching between skating and hitting? The ball rolling wasn't at all frustrating - the balls never got stuck in a corner. I haven't beat the game yet. I got killed by a gob-spitting mucus zombie.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lB684ym3QY4&feature=player_embedded

i think it's time for me to buy this

well i'm addicted.

the crafting mechanism is awesome, although I'm struggling how to figure out how to make windows (sure it involves sand?)

trying not to look up any crafting recipes, and figure them out for myself - this appears to be the major appeal of the game imo.

But the first time playing, and hid away in a tiny dark cave with just a tiny hole listening to the horrible noises as darkness comes in - is just one of those unique gaming moments.

but evolving from my cave i now have a large two floored stone mini castle with furnace and its own garden.

and. the rain is amazing

i have hundreds of units of dirt i don't know what to do with.

i absolutely need to keep avoiding this methinks

i was the same, but ended up plumping up the dough this evening. and then decided to stop playing at 4am

hefty session today

learnt a valuable lesson - don't venture too far from the den without any means whatsoever of finding your way back, and don't take half your belongings with you. Spent a good couple of hours just trying to get back to base, every night time building a quick den. Just completely lost!

So I ended up just having to kill myself, of course losing all the stuff I had on me.

If this is what being stranded on a deserted island is really like, count me in!

crafting is annoying me though, it lacks consistency in some things and I have to look them up. for instance making a ladder i discovered by myself. So then I wanted to make a fence, and so thought well it should be quite similar. But no instead of using the full 3x3 workshop grid you have to do it 2x3 for the fence. How the hell are you supposed to know that?

but hey i did discover the armour parts totally by accident though.

and a bowl. wtf i gotta do with that? i just eat my food like an animal!

Even more frustrating is losing all your items by falling into a lava pool.

so i looked up all the recipes, and yeah i wouldn't have guessed half of them. luckily there's not as many as i thought, just repeats with different materials.

as addictive as this game is, i can happily not play it for days. just that when i do open it up it will stay on for hours

i tried creative mode as i wanted to dabble with red stone. made a few moving carts etc but meh, i'll come back to it at some point. still prefer survival right now.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G6IX-huRrK8

the boy Joel mithered me to remind you that the full 1.0 version got released last night. he said it's gob-smacking amazing but i don't play this shit so \o/

It is gob-smacking amazing. I've been playing this since October last year. In terms of time played to money spent, it's the best gaming decision I've made (worst decision: buying a Dreamcast)

i'll be looking at this later, so what's new in the full release?

More mobs, NPC villagers, some additional crafting recipes, ability to repair tools, an 'enchantment' system for powering up tools and weapons, and an actual proper end to the game with an end boss (you can keep playing a particular world after it's defeated though).

definitely don't regret buying it for him, he has played it a hell of a lot and the new verzh is actually quite beautiful too but i have enough time-guzzling gaming habits thx :)

so how do i get this? is it just an update to the beta version i already paid for? i can't seem to find any info on the minecraft website.

My version went through an update, not sure if it's the full thing or not. How do i repair items?

i think if you paid for the beta then the update is already paid for, j says u shd use "force update" from the options menu.

ah okay, although there doesn't appear to be a force update in my options it doesn't say Beta anymore. just Minecraft 1.00 so i guess i'm good to go.

Started a new game, but not seem too much difference yet. There is a more pleasant sound effect when i collect xp blobs. And spider eyes, not sure what they are for. nice to be playing again. Oh god why did i load this up. need. to. stop.

there's an END BOSS in this game? now i don't think i understand it

It's entirely optional, and even if you beat it you can still continue with your world.

ya but

Sort of hooked on the iPad version. Just doing the creative building though, no survival mode yet.

360 version is out next week...

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fH8PI1FM8nU

does this still have an active community? remember being introduced to it via reddit and am now in realization that it hasn't been mentioned for months, maybe a year.

I tries the survival mode and it sort of sucked. I like just having unlimited resources to create. My art.

I'm about to delve for the first time into the Feed The Beast pack, from the vids I've seen it looks pretty complicated but adds quite a bit to the whole experience. I was impressed with the Quarry feature.

Anyone else use it? Know of any pitfalls?

Re texture packs, some looks really nice but almost all of them make the rain effect worse. I love the original rain effect in this game.

I think I'm going to be evil in my next map, and pretty much rape the shit out of the land around me.

I've not used it, but I've used Tekkit3, another package which includes most of the same mods as FTB (including the Buildcraft quarry). Pitfalls I guess would be that once you start using mods in a world, you can't go back to using vanilla Minecraft in that particular world. Although the Tekkit3 does allow a mixture of vanilla and Tekkit3 worlds to be saved on the same computer.

I read that Minecraft sold 500k copies in December or something? It's now the favorite game of my friend's young children. I don't understand...

XBLA / lego upbringing basically

Oh, here's the headline I meant:

This New Year's Eve the Xbox Live version of Minecraft reached 5 million sales

okay so my plans for evil are going well. i've built the tallest blackest tower ever.

but i fell from the top. lost all my weapons. respawned into my stock room where i was trapped between two creepers. stock room oblterated. valuable stuff lay around swamped by emptied barrels of stone and dirt.

luckily all my thauncraft stuff was in a seperate part of the tower and was safe.

This month's late night opening at the V&A (tonight) is all about minecraft:

http://www.vam.ac.uk/content/articles/f/friday-late/

Oh cool, I'll probably head down to that.

thanks for that - dream end-of-the-summer-holiday evening for my girlfriend's son.

it's nice being able to wander around the v&a in the evening, the atmosphere's very informal. but the quality of the additional bits varies and they can fall short of expectations (sometimes because, y'know, londoners). the kids might help here, usually it's over 18s (because of the alcohol?), but i guess this is a summer holiday special.

(i've more experience of the science museum lates, where you can get people demoing things to themselves most of the evening and talks being drowned out by the brass band doing sci-fi theme music on the floor below. still, drunken discovery lab was fun)

Didn't think much of this to be honest. The content was slight and thinly spread (except maybe for one room at the back which looked like it might have some interesting workshops in there but which also had an enormous queue outside, so I didn't go in). But that wasn't such a big deal. The main problem was that the curatorship felt very simplistic and very detached from what's actually great about minecraft. I'm sure someone working in the visual arts might think the visual style of minecraft was distinctive and interesting, and it is, but that's such a small part of what's important about the game. This event didn't get beyond that pure superficial level though. So they were projecting a few ghasts on the ceiling, having some oversized soil blocks lying around, and (worst of all) sticking in a few cardboard cutouts of clothing "inspired by" the mobs or characters of the game, and it all felt like it was missing the point. At best that was just ignorance of gaming as a medium but maybe it was actually a cynical "hey, i hear kids like games and not museums, lets stick some game stuff in our museum to bring the kids in" thing.

Come October I'll have been playing the same world for three years.

Started playing this on a closed serve with a friend and my girlfriend. Realized how much I missed a nice game with a creative element.

I don't think I can really stand the "Minecraft community" though.

Could someone tell me about Stampy Longnose. My son is addicted to his Let's Play Minecraft for Xbox series on youtube, which really functions almost like a kid's show. I'm a little fascinated myself. Is he a worldwide thing or mostly just England? He has star quality beyond the confines of video game stuff, I think.

http://www.theregister.co.uk/2014/05/01/denmark_dynamited_by_cunning_american_minecraft_vandals/

Last week, the Danish government put a 1:1 scale replica of its country online at Minecraft and invited players to politely explore the land of Lego and Carlsberg. Gamers being what they are, you can guess what happened next.

I wouldn't leave my kids alone with stampy longnose, I'll say that. I get the vibe that he might be part of the grand British tradition of children's entertainers, if you follow me. That "love garden" thing gave me the creeps.

my god this game has been around for what, like 4 years? and it JUST occurred to me, 2 minutes ago, that it's called minecraft because you mine and you craft. not "it's like warcraft but with mines" as i thought it was for four years.

Wut

ITS BECAUSE YOU MINE
AND YOU CRAFT

Lots of drama with Mojang regarding EULA, DMCA takedowns, and now talks that Microsoft may buy all for 2 billion from Notch. Been kind of interesting to follow.

I wonder how all this would play out for the modding community?

To me, vanilla Minecraft is a game that *hints* at a much better game, one which modders in turn try—but fail—to deliver.

I have found myself really bored with Minecraft on my recent revisit. There are few experiences in gaming that match your first night in Minecraft, few that manage the actual uneasiness you feel exploring a cave and getting lost for the first time, but it's really it doesn't sustain my interest now. There isn't enough variety or sense of escalating intrigue (yes I know that's not the point exactly) to keep me going once I've played with all the limited blocks. Can't be bothered exploring the world because it all looks like shit, frankly, and there's nothing really surprising even if it is procedurally generated.

Modding attempts to answer that, but if Microsoft is involved, you can be sure they'll look askance at people enjoying the game how they want to.

Modding is the reason people still give one shit about this game. Microsoft would have to be stupid to ah wait a minute..

xp I have to agree that Minecraft doesn't sustain my interest any more either. I recently started a new world on Hard and found the first few nights a cakewalk since I knew what to do so well. Actually one time I spawned on a small island with one tree and still didn't find it a challenge.

Basically I knew I was hooked when I was digging directly underneath me (never do this BTW) and fell down the hole into a huge cavern. From there I explored a huge underground cave network, not really knowing where the hell I was, until I came across a vertical shaft. I looked up and saw... daylight! Building a staircase up the shaft, I reached the surface and managed to navigate my way back to my base. It was one of those "wow awesome" moments that games often strive for but rarely deliver.

^^^ I haven't had an experience like this playing Minecraft more or less since I posted that.

There's the purely creative aspect as well, too. Recreate something from reality or in another game- or design a building on a whim. Those kind of projects I always found fun. When one approach goes stale, another approach becomes interesting again.

http://mcgs.crummy.com/

Does anyone else think Minecraft has peaked and that $2B is an astonishing overvaluation? Minecraft was mentioned on Coronation Street the other night FFS.

Sale confirmed.

Minecraft has kind of peaked- I'm expecting it to be Angry Birds'd in whatever way it already is not.

It's possible there's more growth top - it's still pretty amazing how far this game has gotten with like zero paid promotion (at least before it hit Xbox)

Microsoft clearly read the same article I did, which argued that Minecraft isn't a game it's an "entertainment platform." Browsing through YouTube you can certainly see how this argument could be made.

Personally, I suspect the underlying codebase is far too rickety to become much more of a slick, DLC crossplatform in-app purchase multimedia streaming entertainment platform than it already is—I'm paraphrasing someone else—"Notch's main achievement wasn't Minecraft itself, it was getting the Java programming language to do that."

The degree of success Minecraft has achieved may have as much to do with rise of the YouTube gaming video as an "art form."

I wonder how much money Microsoft already made on Xbox Arcade copies of Minecraft?

The common line I've heard is that Microsoft have paid the money to purchase a 'generation of gamers' IE everyone sub-teen.

It's too cold to do anything this weekend so I downloaded this again after having not played it for over six months. WTF is this all this diorite etc. everywhere?

Not familiar with that one, not played vanilla mc for a long time

Just swung my sword at a rabbit and it made an "eeeep!" noise, then it fell off a mountain and died with "eeeeeetthhhhhrrrp!" sound. I felt like Hitler. Sometimes I wonder if this game was secretly designed by Morrissey. In my defence, I was on top of a snow covered mountain and really hungry. Elsewhere, I was digging in an abandoned mine when a skeleton fell through a hole in the ceiling and I nearly shat myself.

I've been messing around with the Fossils and Archeology mod. So far I've grown a tiny dino and have a baby Brachiosaurus which has now started to eat my hedges.

so playing with my godson today, we built a tree house out of Jukeboxes. It had a gold floor and four poster bed. In the back there was a christmas tree, grand piano, ironing board, and some barrels.

Green juice flowed down from the house to the ground, where an enclosure was created to house the dozens of baby dinosaurs we'd hatched.

And we had a scattering of pirate wives spawned in for good measure.

They're part of either Forestry, Bibliowoods, or Biomes O Plenty mods. Not sure, there's hundreds of mods in this pack (Resonant Rise)

Does anyone itt still minecraft?

Tweens?

now i am imagining that itt means "in their tweens"

but srsly, i haven't in a while but i keep thinking about picking it up again. it was always fun to goof aorund w/ while doing other stuff on my pc. i wonder if a lot has changed?

They've added a whole ton of content continuously. The game is still a pretty great mapmaking tool. Shame the young demographic association overshadows everything else!

if i had nothing else to do, this would own me I'm sure.

I get the (rather lovely I must say) ambient tunes from this stuck in my head all the time, thanks to the stepkids and bf constantly playing the darn thing. Their latest project is making a replica JurassicWorld.

Yeah I still minecraft.

My godson recently obtained it for his xbox, and its the first time I've ever played it 'multiplayer' (just the two of us anyway), and really enjoyed the share-building aspect of it. Good fun.

By myself I still jump into pc version using the ATI launcher yogpack mods, very easy to set up, because y'know - tons of extra blocks.

I still play vanilla minecraft from time to time. Normally I spend most of my time digging out tunnels for an elaborate underground minecart network. It's just very relaxing way to spend time. When a new release comes out I go on little adventures to acquire all the new blocks. There's a new release due soon I believe.
I tried online multiplayer but it wasn't cooperative enough for my liking - just a bunch of strangers doing their own thing. I suppose it would be different if you were playing among friends.

the share-building part is the best part! the last time i played a bunch was when some coworkers set up a server on the work network and we could build stuff together/more specifically build our own cool things near each other and then see the other person's stuff and kinda get jealous of it.

I've been playing RLCraft modpack with my mate, it's absolutely brutal with the mobs and realistic survival but it looks gorgeous in the winter season

Have jumped back into project ozone this month. ridiculous modpack which does away with mining, and instead you gotta either sieve through dirt, grow, magically conjure, or just get real damn lucky with mob-loot drops, to obtain valuable stuff.

This is a long term world which I play every xmas. Last night I finally constructed a portal gun, which works way better than I expected it would.
