phenixdwn Posted October 6, 2012 Share Posted October 6, 2012 why does it say release date october 15 and 19? the game went into cert testing on either the 3rd or the 4th. Usually takes about 10 days from what I have heard. so the update should be out in like 1 week Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We basically know it will be sometime within the third week of the month and that's about it. The day it gets out of certification is not the day it's release either so you know.

DecadentBeaver Posted October 6, 2012 Share Posted October 6, 2012 Where did you get these release dates from by the way? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RDrules Posted October 6, 2012 Share Posted October 6, 2012 Where did you get these release dates from by the way? exactly how was said in the above posts, its an educated guess based on how long it will take to get through the testing process. and it will be about right, cant think of any reason microsoft would have to stall it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nevander Posted October 6, 2012 Share Posted October 6, 2012 and it will be about right, cant think of any reason microsoft would have to stall it If LIVE takes a trip to screwed up land again... happened with the Trials EVO DLC yesterday. Was supposed to have shown up yesterday but LIVE was taking an enormous squat or something. They just couldn't get it back to speed (from whatever the hell was happening, probably hacked lool) in time to put out the DLC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nevander Posted October 7, 2012 Share Posted October 7, 2012 Live was down yesterday? Everything showed up just fine for me, including the Trials EVO DLC. No it wasn't down, but it was glitchy and acting up a bit. There was a service alert for pretty much the entire day. Something was going on and the DLC wasn't released right when they said it would. First it was an hour, then it was within the hour, then it was possibly later, then it was not yesterday. Not sure when the DLC became 100% available for everyone. I'm sure it came out for some sooner than others, just like how a friend of mine was able to buy Minecraft almost an hour before I could. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RDrules Posted October 7, 2012 Share Posted October 7, 2012 oh boo hoo, i dont even know why your bringing this up MS can hardly be blamed for a bug in their service after a crash , 99% of the time it runs without problem and they didnt stall the DLC because of the bug the bug caused them to wait for it and they had it up at the earliest possible time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
d0ct0rscarecr0w Posted October 7, 2012 Author Share Posted October 7, 2012 Where did you get these release dates from by the way? These dates are in no way official. It could come earlier than the days given or even possibly later. I just gave the current most plausible range for when it is likely to be released.

I hope nothing happens and I'm hoping that LIVE will be running smoothly during the time for the update and that nothing goes wrong. Being a much bigger title update than say a DLC for Trials, this would probably have a higher priority given how many people are excited for it. Good example was the live stream I was watching, over 400 thousand viewers just to see some early gameplay of the update. You know that number is much higher and also would be higher than the amount of those anticipated for the Trials DLC. But I'm just spitballing.

Prof Boom Posted October 9, 2012 Share Posted October 9, 2012 I can't wait for this update to come. Hopefully only 5 days till it comes around, I just need one achievement and I got them all for this game.. It is annoying. But will be my first arcade game complete! But this update should make the game feel better, since the computer versions update is the one I got use too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But this update should make the game feel better, since the computer versions update is the one I got use too. Which achievement is it? If you're planning on getting it in creative mode, apparently achievements are going to be disabled for worlds that's been played in creative... I may be wrong Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DecadentBeaver Posted October 9, 2012 Share Posted October 9, 2012 You're correct. Creative mode once enabled will disable the achievements. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nevander Posted October 9, 2012 Share Posted October 9, 2012 You're correct. Creative mode once enabled will disable the achievements. Just on that world right? New worlds should still be fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nitnoid Posted October 9, 2012 Share Posted October 9, 2012 Just on that world right? New worlds should still be fine. Unless you open up creative mode and save on your new world. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RDrules Posted October 9, 2012 Share Posted October 9, 2012 Just on that world right? New worlds should still be fine. yeah new world that are purely survival are still fine, they are just trying to make sure people dont use creative to get them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
d0ct0rscarecr0w Posted October 9, 2012 Author Share Posted October 9, 2012 Basically, any world that has had Creative Mode activate at any point during its existence will get a little digital mark in the programming that shuts off the ability to get achievements. So if you end up going to Creative in all your worlds you will have to make a new one to get achievements. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FoRty9 Posted October 10, 2012 Share Posted October 10, 2012 Quick Question.. I just started a new world for the fun of it to keep me entertained whilst we're all waiting for the new update and it's actually one of the best seeds I've come across. It's almost perfect for everything I want to do when the new update comes out, but I'm obviously not going to stick around on it when the new update comes out so I was wondering if I noted down the world seed and then used is when creating a new world IN the 1.8.2 update, will that world still exist and will it be exactly the same apart from the things the 1.8.2 update brings such as NPC villages and Strongholds etc?

DecadentBeaver Posted October 10, 2012 Share Posted October 10, 2012 It should add strongholds and villages, although we would need confirmation on this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nevander Posted October 10, 2012 Share Posted October 10, 2012 Thing is I think with new versions of the game at least on PC, the seed generation was changed so one seed that looked a certain way on 1.6 or so would look different in 1.8. If you want to do creative on that seed, make sure you have the world saved before the update. You won't have the new seed generation features (ravines, mine shafts, villages) but you will still have the awesome seed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
