Minecraft 'Adventure' update on XBLA 'still weeks away'

4.5
Look, we really want the next big update for Minecraft's XBLA incarnation – the big "Adventure" update, which adds NPCs, villages, strongholds, abandoned mineshafts – but it won't be here this week, it seems. Not that there was any indication it would be, mind you, just that we really, really want it.

But no, Minecraft XBLA developer 4J Studios says it's "still weeks away." Taking to Twitter, the studio's official account says, "We're still working on 1.8.2 [the Adventure update]. A few things left to add, more work on the Creative Mode interface, then lots of test." Was that an invitation to test it? Because that's totally what it sounded like on this side. Just slide that code on over, 4J.

Beyond the aforementioned updates in 1.8.2, the Adventure update adds Creative mode, allowing for unlimited building (without having to mine), limited only by the constraints of the Xbox 360's RAM. We'll see what that means in ... um, some weeks from now. Soon-ish. Better than "eventually," eh?

I sware they need to make a HUGE update with a s**t ton of stuff in it. I wish they would let us fully mod it such as clay men and have war and stuff like the pc.

4J were good to start. But I think are getting worse.

Can we just get a quick update now of what they already have, then once it's all finished. Get the final update for 1.8.2?
At least that way we won't be bored out of our minds doing the same old thing.

I honestly feel minecraft on Xbox won't be good at all they dont even take the game seriously just sit around and do nothing they said in a interview before the game came out that they would update the Xbox vision fast as possible to catch up to the PC version but they just sit in their asses and do nothing at all I regret buying this game I have never felt so ripped off.

No, no is supposed to be no.

Like, "I wish the update was here, but no, 4J doesn't want to release it yet."

Weeks away? How long are they going to delay it?

Nit3Krawlr No!!! I need this now, not in a few weeks.


So you would rather have it with bugs instead of having it be close to perfect?

You'll be flying in creative mode and die for no reason because they never got to fix it.

I wish they were already done. I understand they do not want to many bugs with the update because they are adding quite a lot.
