I'm building a new house thing near the old house. Maybe.

 

The mine is going ok, especially since someone seems to have explored the dead areas already (you?) and got rid of the monsters. Woo! I might also remodel the old house a bit, it looks... rubbish.

Just a quick question. If someone buys it now and plays on a server of someone who bought it before it went Beta, what happens when another update comes out? Would people be playing different versions, or would non-update players not be allowed onto the updated servers?

 

Not that it bothers me, I bought it a few hours before it switched to Beta. I might have to join you at some point, although I've just discovered the Nether on my single player world and am currently continually killing myself in lava while trying to mine glowstone. I want a heated, bottom-lit swimming pool in the garden of my log cabin house.

whenever you bought it you get entitled to updates, isn't it?

Everyone who buys Minecraft will get free patches, whenever they buy/bought it.

Those that bought it in Alpha got 50% off, those in beta get 25% off.

In addition, anyone who bought Alpha will get any future extensions for free too, (whereas Beta-buyers and onwards will have to pay for those extensions).

Oh, and as for different client/server versions - that'll no doubt be like most games - i.e. they need to match, (at a functional level - using different skins is probably fine).

(The next upgrade is going to give users the choice of whether to upgrade or not, so the potential for different clients is will immediately increase anyway.)

Ah they way I read it, anyone that bought it at Alpha got any little updates, whereas anyone that bought it at Beta won't get those little updates, just the completed game when it's finished, or possibly major updates as well in the meantime.

Anyone playing single player found any fun map seeds?


There are threads on various forums discussing this, but they seem to be mostly populated by incredibly stupid idiots, who don't have any sense of what a good map is. :(

( Or, probably more likely, they're just content doing "me too" posts instead of trying to list interesting ones. :@ )

We have a vacancy for a Pool Boy to keep the pool clean and tidy, and collect used carts from the bottom.
