Retribution Posted August 1, 2010 Share Posted August 1, 2010 Does anyone else play it? I just started playing, it's very fun. It helps if you get a really good world from the start. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
katashy Posted August 1, 2010 Share Posted August 1, 2010 I play. I just found it last night as well. It's a great game. My castle is coming along nicely, just gotta flood the moat now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheTerminator2004 Posted August 1, 2010 Share Posted August 1, 2010 I actually just bought it yesterday too, coincidentally. It's fun, but I imagine it will start to get boring pretty quick, at least in singleplayer, thanks to the lack of any defined goals. Multiplayer sounds like it might be more fun, once its working. Maybe we should set up a Nexus Minecraft server, when it is? The first map I've started has what appeared to be a floating island in the sky (on closer inspection it was supported by a 1-block thick pillar). I plan to build a castle on top of it, plant some trees to get wood, and then seperate it from the ground. So far I'm having problems with the large number of monsters who spawn in the shadows underneath it though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
katashy Posted August 1, 2010 Share Posted August 1, 2010 I would buy it but I'm having problems with PayPal. The Nexus server sounds good. Just gotta try and buy the game... >.> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Halororor Posted August 1, 2010 Share Posted August 1, 2010 Oh, it's not free anymore? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheTerminator2004 Posted August 1, 2010 Share Posted August 1, 2010 The old free version is still available, where you just wander round building stuff, but the new version (Alpha) has to be paid for. It has a variety of monsters, crafting, etc - a lot more things to do. Plus, paying for it gets you all future versions too, such as the upcoming multiplayer (which is expected in a week or two I think), and the future beta and final versions, when/whatever they will be. Right now it's 10euro for the current Alpha, but once the beta is released (when the multiplayer is done IIRC), the price will go up to 15euro - and the final game will be 20.

Retribution Posted August 1, 2010 Author Share Posted August 1, 2010 This game is pretty scary for how primitive the graphics are. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
katashy Posted August 2, 2010 Share Posted August 2, 2010 Finally got the game. Played for like ten minutes and got killed by a creeper. Any tips on how to start off? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Retribution Posted August 2, 2010 Author Share Posted August 2, 2010 Start off on peaceful. Make a "base" and mine by making a 1 block width stair going down. Once you get good weapons, armor, and tools, set it to a higher difficulty. http://www.minecraftwiki.net/wiki/Crafting You can also mine straight down (3x3) as long as you have plenty of ladders.

katashy Posted August 2, 2010 Share Posted August 2, 2010 I've been digging for ages now. I found a whole wall of steel. Alas, I also found my first water source, and flooded at least a quarter of my mine. Oh well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
