Re: update 1.8

its coming out on the 1st

Nice speculation. You need to stop spamming threads that have been talked about before. You should also provide proof with such claims.

What a bunch of crap.

notch didnt say so 4jstudios did

Nobody said anything about Notch. Not sure where you pulled that from. Again, it would greatly benefit you to provide solid proof instead of randomly saying something.

then dont come here dumbie

I'm going to say this in the most polite way I can.

Please stop spamming these forums.

I understand that you are excited about the update that is coming out for the xbox 360 version of Minecraft, but spamming these forums with these threads are not doing anything for anyone, and if anything it is becoming a problem. You continually spam this forum with these such threads, that provide no information or useful content, and I ask for you to stop.

You have no reason to stop, other than people will look down onto you, but I beseech thee, please stop making threads like this.

I also understand you are curious of when the update is supposed to come out, a lot of us are curious, but saying such things is just speculation without any proof.

If you DO have proof, I think a lot of us would be glad to be provided with such proof.

Thank you for your time, and have a nice day.

k i have proof my buddie gaming lemon knows 4j well and he is testing the update and told me its coming out on the 1st have a nice day

In that case does your buddy have proof of such a claim?

yeah thank u i just dont want people blabbing to me but its the 1st

When people ask for proof they want cold hard facts and actual links not a game of he said she said I could say I know Barack Obama and I grew up with em in high school it doesent make it a legit source - as I said in another thread they will post when it goes to cert testing  after that your looking at 10 days

well i cant link it because they testing it

The only thing they are testing is the remaining glitches/bugs and anything that would make it unplayable before they send it to Microsoft to test unless you can prove otherwise feel free :)

It will be funny when it doesn't come out on the 1st.

Mister Eee UFK:

Lol I assumed he meant October but you tell he's chatting complete BS anyway.

From what 4J just tweeted, the update will be ready to be sent to MS in a couple of days. That doesn't include the 10+ days needed for MS to certify it.

.

October 1st is too early and November 1st is too late. This guy is wrong. End of story.

4J Studios has already gone on record to say that it won't be ready until mid-October. Don't try to post BS when everyone already knows the real answer with a little bit of foresight & research. You're simply wasting everybody's time & space on these forums.

That's a good way to get people to hate you, report you, & get you banned. So stop before it gets that far. You're not doing yourself any favors.

this was the last thing that 4J said about the damn update.

4J Studios 4J Studios ‏@4JStudios

We're finishing off bug fixes for the 1.8.2 update now. Should be able to get it into MS Cert Test early this coming week

so galactic geek where do you get off on saying that 4J went on record saying that the update wont be out until mid oct??

I'm not wrong. It takes about 10 days to go through certification. If they get it to certification this coming week, the game should be released sometime around the 15th - which is in mid-October.

-

I know this for a fact because I saw a link to an official statement by the Minecraft developers stating this would be the case. I'll see if I can find it again...

Okay, it's not an official statement from by the developers... :(

-

...but it's still from the press who (for the most part) are supposed to have reliable sources.

Link 4

Sounds about right, If I had to guess I'd say it will be out October 15th.

what ever dont tell me tell gaming lemon he told me plus i knew all updates where 13 14 or 15 so pretty much 14

I won't get my hopes up :)

What?

The update is coming out this week at the week's end at it's latest, if the test finds any bugs then 4J has a 10 day time limit to fix the remaining bugs but after all this time they took to perfect the update and not including the full week they took to finish off the bugs. Expect this update any day this week because Minecraft isn't really a complicated game with much visual problems due to the lack of graphics but do look forward to spending your next weekend enjoying it with the new update. :D

Have they sent it to cert testing yet?

not yet.

Nope. It has not even been sent to MS for cert testing yet.

As a matter of fact Minecraft has been sent to Cert. testing, I have evidence as 4J has tweeted themselves on the 30th of September. Here's the link to 4J's Twitter : http://twitter.com/4JStudios

I never mentioned it was sent to Micrsoft to Cert. yet, 4J has been making the tests themselves and finishing up the bugs and fixes before it's sent to Microsoft. The game has gone into testing yesterday or either today because 4J has confirmed that they have done their part and so the update was sent to Microsoft early this week for testing. The tweets don't lie, although I can be wrong because they have officially announced a date yet.

According to the tweets. They still have not sent it to MS. 4J said it SHOULD be sent off to MS this week. After it is finally in the hands of MS; they normally take a week or two of testing before it is released. Regardless if 4J said they fixed all of the bugs. Your uneducated guess of it releasing this week is completely wrong.

Correct.

.

They said they'd tell us when they did send it to MS but then they also did a preemptive tweet saying that it would be sent in this week. Not that it matters too much but I hope they still let us know when they do hand it over.

.

Hopefully MS/4J give us a good guess as to when it will come out and don't wait until last second to tell us that it's out the next day or something like that.

it will be mid October duh?

https://twitter.com/4JStudios 4JStudios new Tweet. "Check out what's coming in the update for Minecraft Xbox 360 Edition! http://bit.ly/QGJmSr  #minecraftXBLA "

4J Has already passed the update to MS. as of today. "We've handed over the final 1.8.2 build to Microsoft! They'll run some confidence tests then put it into Certification Testing."

looks really good you can see why it took so long with all those changes and additions people will get even less done around the house. now just for people to sit back salivate and wait lol...

I just came back from a game and practice prevents me to gather info. until the weekends. I have taken a look at the new tweets and thank you for reminding me, can't wait!

Guess what its Thursday 4 October 6:10 pm and the update isn't even here yet.
