microsoft bought minecraft

Well I think it can be a good and bad thing. A bad thing because who knows what will happen to minecraft, and a good thing because couldn't they possibly take away the new EULA change?

 

Yeah, what probably going to happen is they would get rid of all Mac users and the if you donate to a server, some of the money goes to them.

 

HOLD IT RIGHT THERE EVERYONE

Like @pnspi2 said, most of this Minecraft being old stuff is being blown way out of proportion. Good ol reddit has a megathread about it. I heavily suggest you read it and the facts ironed out.

Now this might be a little long to read but here is what /u/SmoothScape has on the matter: http://www.reddit.com/r/Minecraft/comments/2g1dmz/mega_thread_the_mojang_acquisition_rumour/ckepfe7

Please do read this as it clears up much confusion.

 

If Microsoft buys MOJANG. What will happen to minecraft on Mac???? I dont see Microsoft making their own software availible to their competotors customers.

 

Well Microsoft has some great coders and developers they could make the game better, they might not change it just to get money, they could possibly try to make the game better than it already is. Hopefully..

 

If they do make the deal, I seriously hope Microsoft knows what they're doing when they release updates.

 

I hope.

 

They might get rid of all Mac users and make people buy Microsoft computers witch means millions of dollars

 

They probably wouldn't since that would be ripping users off.
Still, we don't know if the deal has been finalized or not.

 

Agreed

 

i will sue microsoft's pants off.I bet I can get a petition signed by 80% of these https://minecraft.net/stats people and the petition will say something like "give minecraft back to mojang!!!"

isnt it possible to play a minecraft like mod in g-mod?

 

G-mod is a sandbox game, like Minecraft. People have builded maps that look like minecraft creations.then the maps are used in many gamemodes like TTT.

 

We all know that microsoft is only tring to buy minecraft because they are a bunch of greedy b****** that will charge a monthly fee just to play, charge a insanely high fee to play multiplayer for a month etc.

 

I think that Microsoft might do something to charge us to play minecraft or something just because of the fact they've done this on most of their products such as the Xbox to where you have to pay for Xbox live,but again like gigga said they might pull some big moves and surprise us with something Mojang wouldn't release. Basically there are many pros and cons if this deal is successful.

 

Hey guys check th-ish out, i have been involved in a goverment ing about to plan some **** with the Technology of videogames and app for mobile phone and i have met a person that has some sort of contact and close friendness with Mojang, he told me that he has been told tons of **** that could happen:

1. You will Have to pay to play online
2. You will have to pay to change your skin or download skin packs
3. Minecraft will only be able to be played on Windows... Not MAC anymore (but, you can still play on your gay ass single player world with NO update in the future)
4. Youll have to pay for versions
5. 5.000.000 MAC MC users will be pissed off as holy ****.
6. MC in consoles only for Xbox 360, XBox One and future versions of XBox.. No further uspdates for PS

In overall... This could be the end of MC for +5.000.000 - 15.000.000 PEOPLE!

 

I read an article saying that mojang was going to do the right thing and might not take the money!!!

 

Highly believable government ing
