 Re: Minecraft Up and Running
As for the first one, someone flooded areas on weasel's island and around your little house. I just slabbed some sponges on there.

 Re: Minecraft Up and Running
We'll have to go on a sponge-removing project next.  I also slapped some sponges on the house when the island got flooded... for the third time.

 Re: Minecraft Up and Running
Am I missing something with this game? I don't understand the point of playing this when Sauerbraten exists.

 Re: Minecraft Up and Running
This is, for the most part, a sandbox collaborative building game, not an FPS.

 Re: Minecraft Up and Running
It is also a lot easier to just pick up and play. There are so many controls to master in saurbaten

Because Sauerbraten can not be an fps if you don't want it to be, and is by far a much more extensive and generally objectively superior "sandbox collaborative building game".

To build everything that I've seen in this game all you need to do is click and scroll in Sauerbraten. Oh, and one hotkey for textures, fine. I just don't see the point.

 Re: Minecraft Up and Running
Its easier to build things simply because everything is simple. You have to place less cubes to build. Some people don't feel like downloading a program to play a game. (Otherwise nobody would play stupid games like runescape.) Also, I personally like the simple graphics.
I could be playing LBP, which is much more intricate, etc, but I don't feel like it.

Just going from the shipped levels to the stuff you can (or cannot for that matter) create on your own from a flatgrass is somewhat depressing. You are correct, you can do anything in SBT that you can do in Minecraft, but Minecraft has a more streamlined place/erase mentality where SBT is extrude/texture/recalculate light/fiddle with light settings/tweak extrusion thing going on. It's a big step up, and I admit when mastered would be a lot more fun, but again, it's easier to just pick up and play Minecraft, which is what most people want.
