Minecraft is a sandbox construction game, inspired by Infiniminer, and created by Markus Persson, the founder of Mojang Specifications. The game involves players creating and destroying various types of blocks in a three dimensional environment. The player takes an avatar that can destroy or create blocks, forming fantastic structures, creations and artwork across the various multiplayer servers in multiple game modes. Minecraft is currently in beta, available to players for €14.95 (~$20). Beta singleplayer and Beta multiplayer, when purchased, can be played in the user's web browser, or using the downloadable client. Minecraft Classic is available to play for free. Minecraft development started around the 10th of May 2009, pre-orders for the full game started being accepted on the 13th of June 2009. www.minecraft.net

Looks like Lego to me. Is it free?

[scarface1994]

Yes it is, I know you're probably like "What the hell is this sh*t, I'm not going to waste my time" since that's what I said at first but this game is actually awesome.

[ScratchCard]

So it's free? Available for download already?

Far as I can tell, it's actually all Java based. Just register, click on multiplayer or whatever, and get building.

[Kimd41]

No download needed, it's played on the browser. I forgot the link www.minecraft.net

from what year is your computer?

[ScratchCard]

Like 3 years old. It can run SA and a lot of other games with everything on High, so this shouldn't be a problem

[Kimd41]

That's a weird error, try installing newest graphics card drivers . Also, make your hardware acceleration to full 8recommended). Right click on Desptop and Properties, then Settings then Advanced then Troubleshoot. The recommended acceleration is Full.

Hardware acceleration already is on full. I'm pretty sure my graphics card isn't the problem, so what else is?

EDIT: I'm going outside for now, when I get back I'll try on the laptop.

Me too, but there's a big problem with griefers. Our TCD server was public with a spawn-jail so only us can get out, but somehow they got out and griefed it to hell, thanks god I do backups. Now it's private.
