...armed with five-five-sixers, and pineapples.


 I played a bunch of the PC version just prior to full release and played a good 4 hours today of the Xbox version and holy hell are there a lot of monsters in this version comparatively. I am getting my rear end handed to me. Took me 2 hours to find a good cave (bad luck) and then was getting stormed by at least a creeper + 2 archers almost constantly. So aggravating

I'm pretty confused by whether the auto-save even exists and how it works. Does it only work if you make it an "online game", because multiple times I have "lost connection to the server" (wait I'm doing an offline world...) only to reload my game and find out I've lost a game day of progress sometimes.

Now I save at least once a game day, but can anyone shed some light on this?

I think the auto save is only kept in RAM kinda thing, so if you die the world is the same but it's not a "hard" save. You have to save on the menu or when you quit out. I actually kind of like that in case I really bugger something up and want to revert.

Makes sense. So what about losing connection to the server in my NOT online game, which kicks me to the main menu without being able to save?

Which begs another question: Why do I need a connection to a server for my offline world? Can you even play this without a connection to XBL?

I un-tick my online play and it works fine? I haven't tried playing it while being fully offline though system-wise. Or is that what you're doing as well?

Yeah, really. Like, 4 stacks of coal will keep you for a LONG time.

Then again, if you've got bones (for bonemeal) and saplings around, that charcoal happens quickly.

Does anyone know if the 'tame 5 wolves' achievement works between worlds, or is it 'have 5 tamed at once.'

Well, I think one of the achievement guides stated that you can just have a stack of 5 bones and then tame + reload x5 and it should work, but I haven't done it myself yet as I need to scrounge up more bones.
