I just got the update, pretty disappointing. Looks like the worlds are bigger but they still end with a blue void. Also for some reason you can't kill sheep with the sword.. Instead you hit them to death with shears.

Eh.. It's getting there. Just wait a few more months.

God damn it, I'm tempted now.

Also, it isn't that hard to mod it.

I ported Misa's Texture Pack into my MC:PE



It's 64x64 btw

Even after this update, it feels limited still, almost like its missing something... Worth the current price? 50/50 in my opinion. Just my .02 cents.

[garychencool]

There is also glitches as usual, on android i cannot pick up brown wood lol

[alexojm]

I can kill sheep with the sword so that bug is not confirmed on my end but yeah I cannot pick up brown wood.

Really all they need to do is add a crafting system and a sky. The other mobs should come later. Unlimited worlds would be epic but I don't think we will get that.

[garychencool]

I found it funny how the whole world is 21MB and yet you can zip it up to 500KB

I bought it on iOS because I had extra cash from an iTunes card. I dont really regret it because I support Mojang, but I wouldnt exactly say its 'worth' all that money. Especially since they claimed alpha users would get 'ever future verson for free'

You could have waited for a sale, wait do those iTunes cards expire?

I had already redeemed it and used a few bucks, so probably not.

Yeah, sorry about the sheep thing. I was just being an idiot, I thought that I had to hold down to attack with the sword.

I've been playing the new update alot lately, the game is alot better. But something that I find funny is the zombie spawn rate, go create a decent sized cave and come back later. I've had what was probably about 10 zombies all in a little group chasing after me.. Never seen that on the computer version before.

Should I make a pocket edition megathread?

[garychencool]

I was thinking of making it but sure if you want. I'm not going to really.

[Sharker]

How is it survival without crafting?

[garychencool]

it will come, soon, as in sometime in Summer or something

[crackberry]

I mostly nabbed it for the future when they might charge something like 15 bucks for it. I play it sometimes. Its kind of like a limited creative mode so far. The survival is ok.

[Jasun]

I really wanted to be able to connect to other multiplayer servers.

its classic/creative with much less blocks and clunky controls

I don't think it even has infinite maps

So it's rather incomplete, on a system that lacks serious RAM, and people still pay for it?

This inspires me to push out a half-finished game and make millions like Notch, just to shit on the community and hand off the development to somebody else.

[garychencool]

So half the people who bought it were complete fanboys and they bought it right when it came out, and bought an xperia play.
For the other half, waited for a sale like the 10 cents sale in November or for an update such as this. I got it for 10 cents. Yippee.

I don't like the fact that you get loads of unlimited items... To be honest when crafting comes and items need to be made and not just spawned from the items menu , then it will be better. ( loads of things are infinite in the menu) also zombies die in 2 or 3 hits from a sword witch is pretty poor. Not sure how many times it takes on the computer version but I think that's too low. Also we need pigs and/or pork so you can regenerate health manually without it doing it automatically.

I find the game plenty difficult without having to worry about hunger on top of everything else.

The unlimited items is temporary so that won't be an issue much longer, and I'm pretty sure the zombies die in 2-3 hits with the iron sword on the computer so it's not all that inaccurate on Pocket Edition. You're right about it being too easy though, the sword can hit them from what, three or four times as far away than it can on the PC? So they have no chance to hit you unless they take you by surprise. Also the lack of beds is saddening.. Still. It'll get better, just gotta wait..
