I downloaded Minecraft before I headed out this morning. Was up bright and early for a 7:30 final.

I ended up unlocking five achievements in the 5 minute span that I played. A lot of easy ones like collecting wood from a tree, building a workbench, and making a wooden pickaxe.

Won't be able to play much until tomorrow afternoon, but the interface doesn't seem so bad with a controller given the limited time I had to mess around with it. Never played on PC, but I'm sure it's better suited to keyboard and mouse. That being said, this could have turned out worse. I'll probably find some things to bitch about when I get more time to mess around.

You sill console newbs. The inaccuracy of not having a KB/M, not being able to mode the game, and not having unlimited world sizes make this version a far inferior product than the PC version.



/Cs



Just kidding I just downloaded it and am about to check it out.

It seems to flow pretty easy with the trigger buttons as mining and placing. I made a wooden pick ax and not sure if I threw it down while trying to get my crafting table back or not or it wore out that quickly from getting the box back but it was gone.

Oh and was already killed by two zombies on fire. Accidentally fell in a hole trying to kill a chicken and not paying attention and there were two at the bottom. I had no sword crafted yet and couldn't move. FML.

No coal miner. Grew up in the country helping my grandfather farm and take care of his cattle. I have always gotten up this early. I'm definitely a morning person.

So the maps are pretty small right now. No way you put 8 people on a map and have enough of the scarce, non regenerating resources.

I didn't walk one out to see how far it was. Hopefully they will add land size soon.

It looks like they took into account the resource issue and upped them for the map sizes so that 8 people won't be fighting for every little diamond

I am reading about it on the official forum

Tens of thousands diamonds per map.... and many times that in coal and iron, I don't think anyone will be lacking for resources.


ETA From 4J studios who made the Xbox edition

quote:

Question: Will the invisible walls on the xbox version be removed in later updates?

Answer: There will always be limits, but we'll be looking at what we can do to improve everything in the game as we work on the updates.


quote:

Question: Will you take the same release version steps as the PC version? Or will you be jumping up several steps at a time?

Answer: We're aiming to update to the major PC releases - first one will be the equivalent of the PC Beta 1.7.3 version.



quote:

Question: If I'm playing split screen multiplayer, does whatever the second player collect or do save? Or is it erased.

Answer: Yes, their inventory is saved in your save file.


quote:

Question: Can you share minecraft worlds with friends or can you only join your friend's world when they are playing?

Answer: In the first release, you can only join your friend's game when they are playing/hosting it.

Well that's a good thing. That makes sense though. Just in the few minutes I played this morning, I saw quite a few iron blocks just below the surface in shallow holes

What was this on the PC?

Not sure what it updated/added. You would maybe have to look on the Mincraft Wiki to find out.
