Are you ****ing kidding me? Maybe you assholes who haven't been around minecraft development very long don't know, but Notch was independent for years. Jeb joined the project not too long ago, and has added some good things but Notch has managed by himself for years as an independent developer. He was always concerned about turning into a large company. I respect Jeb's trying to handle MC on his own, and like most of his additions but Notch=90% Jeb= 8% Jon=2% in the scheme of things. Everywhere I go, everyone goes on about how lazy Notch is. Notch may not be a professional developer, and can't make major decisions to make the community happy, but he has done much more than his fair share of work on MC. He just wants to try new things as he has gotten bored of MC. Jeb is better for minecraft now, but don't assume notch is lazy. Though he may have rushed leaving (MC 1.0.0 was one of the most buggy, feature-missing/incomplete versions of minecraft, and took away more than it had added) but I understand why. [br][/br]Edited by merge: It will be 1.7.3 I think back when minecraft was in its prime (terrain gen, mob spawning etc..) Skins and texture packs soon to follow. It will have some of the server-side API features of 1.3 to ensure MCXB360 won't be a grief fest. I wouldn't expect anything spectacular though, you are paying for a dumbed-down version of the game.
I agree. Everyone is happy but when Notch does one bad thing and suddenly he becomes the worst game developer in the world. People are forgetting how much he has added and who he really is. This can be related to Bioware and ME3. Like **** guys, give him a break. Now he is finally having one.
Idk, he had a lot of vacations. He worked hard n' stuff, but sometimes he'd set arbitrary goals, wouldn't appease the fans, etc... I can see why people don't like him, but in the end, he made a pretty sweet game and I can't complain too much.
He had struggled for a very long time. SMP was buggy for ages. I remember the days where minecarts didn't work, and dropping items reset durability. Ore blocks had different textures back in the days. /nostalgia
Time to pull out the old jar files I still have saved and travel back to the early alpha when I bought the game!
Just finished the obstacle course WOOT, spent a veeeeeeeerrrryyy long time, especially this week doing it. Made a quick little poster/wallpaper:
I have them all. Best ones are alpha 1.2 vanilla and beta 1.7.3 with mods. Been playing on those for months. More specifically since 1.8.

That hardcore server is serious fun. Got on it a few weeks back with one of my friends for a few hours. I was perfectly fine, having great fun. He somehow managed to drown in the first 10 minutes.
I lasted 45 minutes on the hardcore server before walking out of my makeshift home just to be met by 5 spiders
