    See:
    1. That doesn't make the fact wrong. That means, you agree that survival is bad.
    2. If survival is the worst aspect, and it comprises half of the game. Then half of the game is bad, right?

    Again, see 1.

    Answered above. Using mods doesn't make the fact that the game is poorly optimized wrong. It's just a substitute.

    Who says Lone Survival is half the game. There is adventure maps, creative, making advenute maps (yes that is different than creative), Multiplayer Survival, Multiplayer Creative, Multiplayer Adventure maps, and Multiplayer mini games. Lone survival is just 1/8th of the game, and Lone or Multiplayer Survival is just 1/4th.
    1. optifine still helps it. the game play is the same (minus lag)
    2. and also It is wise to close every thing else why playing MC.
    3. and the fog and clouds and all those other special features are for computers that have the RAM and power to run them, not for normal computers
    4. and did you know that most other games are just the outside texture. thats why when you walk though some one in COD you see the same texture as the outside. Minecraft is SEVERAL different textures due to the HUGE amount of blocks

    Eh... you split the same things into many parts and made them all have equal portions of gameplay. When I said Survival mode, I mean Survival in general, i.e. both SSP and SMP. Making adventure modes and playing should be in the same category (btw, *adventure, not advenute). And making adventure maps can be classified as creative, as you create the structures and all the things like in Creative mode. Mini games aren't the actual game and take up small parts of the game. That's like saying the Achievements in FRHD are equal to the Track Editor in terms of gameplay. The current game is divided in two main parts Survival and Creative, and the rest belongs to either one of these categories. Making of adventure maps uses Creative elements. These two game modes are the things that most people play. In fact, Survival is the thing most people play.

    Thanks for using numbers.
    1. I didn't use poor optimizaton as a gameplay flaw. I said that Minecraft is poorly optimized. That has nothing to do with gameplay. Yes, I have said earlier about gameplay. But the optifine part is not related to it.
    2. It's a recommendation, not a counter argument.
    3. TBH, these things could be run on almost any computer in this generation. It's like requiring a "gaming computer" to run FRHD. Using optifine, fog and clouds and all those other features could be easily turned on and it lags a lot less. It's huge specifications because MC is so poorly optimized that it actually takes a better system to run the program at full speed. All the objects in MC have a low amount of polygons, it doesn't take so much "power" to render. Games with better graphics run at higher FPS at the same computer because they are optimized better.
    4. Uhh... that was a reply to what? And do you mean that MC has many textures because of the huge amount of blocks? If so, your point?

    My point is that MC is a much larger game then most in terms of texture generation (which causes the most lag in games). Im sayin that MC could be considered as a "super" game

    And they are multi-million dollar projects with hundreds of support personnel.
    MC is just a very popular game with only a few support personnel.
    and MC runs on a decent FPS

    Do you think every block in the MC world is calculated every second? After a certain distance, the mobs/blocks despawn. If the computer had to calculate the whole Minecraft world, it would have overheated your computer. And random level generation with insanely large worlds is not exclusive to MC. Terraria has it. Starbound has it. Terasology (MC inspired game) has it. And all those Minecraft. They do not lag, or at least lag as much as Minecraft.

    1. Nobody told them not to hire people. Mojang has already sold 42 billion copies of MC. They sleep on cash, they bathe on cash, they play golf with cash. Mojang can invest money on MC easily, and they don't even need to spend millions of dollars on Minecraft to make it a better game. They don't even have a separate department for the graphics. All the textures are programmer art. Come back, Dock.
    2. Yet, you recommend Optifine. If MC actually ran on decent FPS then why would people use Optifine in the first place?

    Because if you had, you wouldn't need a name (unless the previous one was too bad).

    1. Ok I think that the reason Mojang wants to keep the game small is to keep it's personality. I mean, no one thinks of minecraft like they think of COD or Halo. They think of it as a small, but popular game. I think that Mojang should invest in minecraft a bit more then they have been, but that still doesn't make minecraft a crappy game in my opinion.

    2.(and the first thing you said) I recommended Optifine because it fixes those faults. And when I said that MC runs on a decent FPS i meant that it trys to run on a decent FPS. saddly some computers just can not handle it. This does not change my view of MC. It is fine with me if those issues change yours.

    That shouldn't be an excuse for not doing certain stuff that can make the game better. I never claimed that MC is a bad game because of the small crew. But having a small crew should not be an excuse for low and bad content. And good game design doesn't need a huge crew. Although applying some of the features to the game may require it, but as I said earlier they can hire people whenever they want and that doesn't make them "change their personality". They're still the owner, they have the power to create the game and their goal is the make the game better.

    You say it fixes those faults yet you claim that MC runs on decent FPS which is contrary to the fact that Minecraft is poorly optimized and flawed. Be specific and clarify with what you want to say. Either accept that MC is poorly optimized or provide an argument to why it is not.
    Also, when bolding a word, be sure to spell it correctly. For a game like Minecraft which uses 16x16 resolution textures, simple shaders (i.e not intensive), it should run at 60 FPS on an average desktop/laptop. You're trying to compare it with games like COD and such, but they are intensive compared to MC. Thinking that every game takes as much resources as the other is stupid. How do you think Optifine manages to run better on older system? By some magic powder? No. Optifine uses better coding that makes those computers run the game faster. The game may "try" to run at a decent FPS, but in reality it does not and mods like Optifine do it better. You may say, "If so, then why don't you just use Optifine and leave the game as it is." I do use it. But the fact that it is poorly optimized would be still be true. I'm criticizing the game, not asking for help in making the game run better. I want the game itself to be better, not use external sources to make it better for me. I want Minecraft to fix these huge flaws.

    You say that minecraft in general is poorly optimized. then why dont the xbox 360 and xbox one versions lag?
     
  15. Blaze06h

    Blaze06h Well-Known Member

    Because it is developed by 4J Studios. They didn't just put the PC files into the Xbox version and named it "Xbox 360 Edition". Durh.

    Ok. I will now publicly announce to the world that Blaze06h has totally vanquished my logic and arguing skill in the debate.

    Okay...

    ...that was not something I expected you to say.

    I don't know what to say now.
