Looks good so far chris, try making the stone a bit less wavy, tone down the contrast one it.

I just made my first ever mob farmer in junt's server, I love it so far, it's 43x43 and i get a pretty decent dps, but i haven't really measured it yet.
edit: holy whale penis, minecraft just sold 1kk copies

Also, I've decided to start playing sp like i do smp, if you've seen my in smp you'll know that i basically get basic tools, THEN DIG TO THE BOTTOM OF THE EARTH within about 5 minutes. Then I usually don't ever surface unless I need ham, which i'll soon compensate for with wheat, then i can completely live in the ground :3

Its soft. i like it.

Yup Bio, 1 mill copies.

Thats what, somewhere between € 10 and 15 million?
I wonder where he puts all that...

Too bad most of it goes to Swedish government. I'm sure he's well-off with what he does get to keep, though.

He hasn't even released the full game so i bet he'll be getting alot more sales in the future

not to mention with the beta updates like nether and so on, he'll be getting shit-tons of money from that too.

I think that is a bit of a logical fallacy there.

I don't think Minecraft will receive "more" sales just because it goes in to release.
If you think about it, a lot of people have bought it now because its cheaper; so this is 1 million sales that he won't be able to sell again.

I expect more sales, but I don't expect a shitload when he releases.

Alpha accounts recieve all updates for free, while Beta will have to pay for some updates, such would probably include the 'Adventure Mode' and so on.

No where does it say there will be anything that beta is not entitled.

Beta and Alpha accounts are different only in name.

Please link/quote if you heard otherwise

Look at this we have a date for the BETA update! So run an buy your minecraft account now so you will get all the updates and the full game for only 9.95 Euros! When the game reach BETA on 20 december - 2010 the game will cost 15 Euro, and the later on major update like for the full game will properly also have a cost. But as long as you buy the game in ALPHA you will have the hole experience for only 9.95 Euro.


Notch Words:

The next epoch is upon us! The skies are trembling, pigs are growing wings, and the nether is turning awfully cold, as Minecraft slowly crawls out of Alpha..

Minecraft will reach Beta status on December 20th, 2010.

With Beta comes a larger focus on polish and content, and we’ll start early on with adding proper modding support with a stable API, and we’d love all input we can get on this from the modders out there. We’ll also add some kind of non-intrusive narrative to the game to help drive the game experience early on, and to provide some kind of late game goal. There will be a bigger focus on testing and stability as well, with more time between updates.

When the game enters beta, the price will rise to 14.95 Euro.

We will also change the license to remove the line that promises all future versions of the game for free. Please note that this change only affects people who buy the game after December 20, so if you got the game for during alpha, you will still get all future updates for free, despite this change. A promise is a promise.
Buying the game during beta will include all updates up until release, of course, and bug patches will be free.

Soon, you will be able to buy gift codes for Minecraft, perfectly timed for the holidays! Even better, if you buy those before December 20, accounts created from these codes will count as alpha accounts, and will receive all future updates for free.

And the next game update (with server-side inventory) is coming next week, before Beta

Merry holidays happy!
