I still smile every time I watch Minecraft "click" with new players, even after all theses years.

I see you have half an armor icon there Y2kev. Are you wearing leather booties by any chance?

You can then turn the stone bricks into stairs, slabs, etc.
I'm a slab nut. Build everything with slabs
go into the ocean or water and find darker sections surrounded by sand. that is clay. Bake the clay and you'll get bricks
Im loving seeing new people getting so into this lol

So that's where clay is! Never thought to dig underwater.

Dumb question:
Does switching to Creative mode after generating a world in Survival mode disable achievements if you ever boot up that world in Survival mode again?
There's a little outcropping on a mountain top in my Survival world that I'd love to mine/manipulate in Creative mode, but I'm afraid I'll break something when I switch back to Survival.

yeah you'll see it with a keen eye from a boat. just sail out in the ocean or just find a stream or whatever, look at the sand and look for any bluish toned squares around the sand. those are the clay squares. If you see it as the first layer and you can still stand, then you can use the shovel and it basically insta-digs the clay. otherwise there is a short delay before grabbing it when you are shoveling underwater.
Mind your air!

First time playing Minecraft and it's pretty fun. Gutted I didn't see the upgrade programme first or I'd have purchased the PS3 version. Bit shit really as I have a Vita sitting there doing nothing. Unlikely that I'll spend another £14 just to play it on the go.

Yes otherwise it would make the game too easy. Like if you made a chest full of the best armor/weapons and also an impregnable fortress to live in. My advice is do whatever you want if you think that's going to be the most fun for you, and forget about achievements.
Never really played much Minecraft before, I'm only really getting into it now with the PS4 version.
Exploring is so fun. For now, I'm living as a nomad, travelling around by day collecting stuff, and then setting up a little camp somewhere by night. I'm planning to settle down in a village once I find one. Playing this way is really enjoyable, even though I'm not really getting many resources for building, but I'll do that at a later point

Got me thinking of how simple I think some things are in the game but to new players they are complex.
I'm glad I had a huge phase with the PC version a while back.
I wish I still knew how to make an elevator.
Yeah, there is 2 modes 'survival' and 'creative'.
You'll like survival.
You'll still build stuff but exploring and surviving is the point of that mode.

Yeah, definitely. Building in survival feels natural, not annoying. I am the same as you.
So stupid :<

I kind of assumed everyone else just made floating sky castles like me? Tend to be easy to see in the distance
My building style mainly uses a lot of slabs but if your in survival I would recommend bricks since it's more quick.
Question. Is there a retail PS4 version of this coming out? Will there be new SKU of the PS3 version with a code for a free/discounted PS4 version? Lastly, since Vita version will be based on PS3/360, can you still transfer data across that version and the PS4 version? Thanx.
I got a $10 PSN code so im on the fence on buying this game.

I made a little leather hat. And that's ALL I am wearing ifuknowwhatimean
Yeah, I think I'll do this. I'll get the retail PS3 version. Hopefully the DLC for the Vita version isn't massive, I don't have much room.

When you don't know what to do anymore and start losing interest... google "mobspawner".

Thanks for the heads-up!
One last question - does switching between Normal and Peaceful difficulty (and back again) in Survival mode bork anything?
Neuromancer
Member
I don't believe so, no. Difficulty shouldn't affect achievements as long as you don't do creative.
Same as me. Dont worry at all. Minecraft building is completely different and super easy to pull off.
LBP create mode is a annoyance. . Minecraft is so visually simple and easy to pull off. Buy it.
Yep. Y2Kev's posts reminds me of myself back in 2010 when I made my first house on top of a mountain.
It will, but playing with friends is what makes Minecraft a never-ending experience. This is the game where you play alone for the first 100 hours to get used to it, and the next 2000 are with friends.

Can PS3 save file be imported? Or still waiting on a update?
Yes.

Diamonds are rare and are found only below a certain level of the bedrock. It's something like you hit the very bottom and that + 15 blocks is capable of having diamonds. Something like that. Might be 12? Can't remember off the top of my head. I played for months on the PC and think the most I ever had at once was 8 diamonss
What I would do is begin my digging and just keep count of what level down I was and put down a sign every 10 levels.

Use a map to know what level you are y number.
I've found diamonds on levels 13 and 15 in my cave.

I thought it was only the digital version that gave the upgrade?
Woah woah woah, what the fuck am I reading. It sounds like I can only upgrade from the PS3 version if I bought it before August 28th. The fuck is this shit.
Everything I read said that you could upgrade from disc or digital.
Underground is broken into levels based on how far you are from bedrock and usually you find diamonds around level 12 I believe in a cave system. Here's a picture to sort of descirbe it, this picture is a little old and only has 8 when it's more than that now:
