"Beta" for gmail was different. "Beta" for Minecraft means just that. The 1.8 update is suppose to completely change the direction of the game adding adventure and NPCs.
My fear is this is because of the 3 million beta users and grand views of the masses.
- ugh 15y agoNot really. Giving the game some sort of (optional) goal (i.e. actually turning Minecraft into a game) was always Notch’s plan. Nothing special about that.
- joshfinnie 15y agoRight, showing how it's in beta. I guess my main point is that 3 million users might not be the best for a beta game. It might work in the end, but I think Minecraft might get bogged down with 3 million users making suggestions to a non-complete game.
- jerf 15y agoWhy are you hypothesizing about how the way things currently are might be a problem, when they in fact visibly aren't a problem? What's your point?
