There is also a payload map on TF2

Can't wait until SMP.
Also, when it comes out, we have to make a GBAtemp server for anyone that plays it

 

There's enough creeps around here to hunt.

 

Could someone please give me a quick fillin as to what Minecraft is? I've seen a couple of people playing it on Steam (as a non-steam game) but i know nothing about it, and from the quick searching i did, i found almost no info (just referencing to other games, which i'm not familiar with, and their site give NO info on the game).

Help me, Minecraft Players. You're my only hope.

 

It's like.... a first-person Dwarf Fortress (if you haven't played DF either, please do.).
It's like...playing with LEGOs in 3D.
It also has it's share of exploration. Personally I feel it has that classic Harvest Moon charm to it (work hard, enjoy).


Really basically, you mine, and you craft. Hence the name. Check out a bunch of Youtube videos, play the REALLY REALLY OLD AND BARELY SIMILAR TO REAL MINECRAFT demo.

Honestly, it's absolutely worth the price. This is indie gold.

[EDIT]

Compared to the "demo" version...the real "Alpha" version has crafting, more mobs, fluid dynamics, caves, infinite worlds (keep moving and it generates as you go), many types of resources, armor, weapons, tools, food, farming....and it goes on.

 

I made this!

But....while the demo is basically "Creation Mode", it is far from the reality of the real thing. I cannot stress this enough, because by itself, the demo can also deter people from this awesome game. The demo REALLY is that old.

 

So, can i basically call this a stand-alone Garry's Mod?

Also, no i haven't played DF either... it's a name i've known for a bit, but haven't settled into it because i hear it's highly addicting with a steep beginner's curve... and that's the kind of thing that i can lose my life to

 

You could, but it's not so complicated and expanded. Crafting happens on a 3 by 3 grid. At the moment Notch is adding a powered minecart, it's useful for lollercoasters.

 

Well, i just did some Youtube surfing for info about this, and i'm in. Good chance i'll be shelling out the bucks tomorrow (hopefully heh) and i'll be runnin' round that game.

 

Kickass. Then my timing is pretty dead on for this one. I'll (99% sure) be snagging this tomorrow

Hell, as a matter of fact, Wife® might be into this too. Might have to snag two copies.

 

Hadn't heard of Minecraft before.
I'm definitely going to purchase it before the Beta. It looks fun!
