  • Game99TV Game99ProTV (@Game99TV) reported

    Hello! What to do? Minecraft is not downloading for me. I press the button and the inscription is displayed, it gives an error: Error. Another user has already installed an incompatible version of this application, what should I do?

  • hs_doubbing Sidney Rutledge (@hs_doubbing) reported

    So Microsoft is now forcing all Minecraft players to use a Microsoft account to sign in. Great. Wonderful. Can’t wait for the game to be literally unplayable as a result just like every other service they’ve done this to. The best part? There is no benefit. None. It’s pointless.

    Minecraft Bedrock 1.18.10 Custom Item models are broken 🥲 good thing I didn't updated my Minecraft yet lmao.

  • TheluckCatlord TheLuckCatlord (@TheluckCatlord) reported

    It's fun when you make a resource pack for Minecraft where you remodel mobs until you realize you have been breaking the head items, and there is no way to actually fix them unless you want to completely remap UV's with a chance of that not even working.

  • Brenoguedss Mark Spector (@Brenoguedss) reported

    @MojangSupport i'm not recieving any emails from mojang to change my password in my account and i can't login with my old password in "mojang account" area, i'm worried that my account has been deleted

  • NatIncorporated Nat (@NatIncorporated) reported

    @dantaeusb @RealSalC1 I usually like OAuth2 authentication systems but you need to go through 3 layers just to login to minecraft. Why would I need Xbox Live to play Minecraft Java Edition?

  • ItzLemonYouTube ItzLemon (@ItzLemonYouTube) reported

    We're aware of the issues that occur in Grave Danger after Minecraft's 1.18.10 update, the team is working on a solution! 🔧

    @RealSalC1 "Now that we are authenticated with Microsoft, we can authenticate to Xbox Live." ??? "Now that we are authenticated with XBL, we need to get a XSTS token, we can use to login to Minecraft." ???

  • Beau_realis Katy ~ Yr 2 of Stardew🌱 (@Beau_realis) reported

    @MojangSupport any word on the fixes for the new minecraft launcher bugs? Since the new launcher update, it hasn't worked properly at all. Can't open it most of the time, then it opens up blank on the slim chance it does work, I always need to sign in again. Any word on fixes?

    @ffsJuliaa @e Daymn, colour me impresses xD Before I got a gaming computer minecraft would almost crash if i went into a dark oak forest T.T (I don't miss that laptop xD) and even on the new one, too many entities is horrible so impressed you didn't crash

  • DnDeeeezNutz Skoal Miner (@DnDeeeezNutz) reported

    @brianmurrray1 It would be very funny if someone were to set up a botnet and launch a DDoS attack against the site in Minecraft. I hope nobody does that.

  • Jajip99 Jannik (@Jajip99) reported

    @MojangSupport I'd like to migrate a mojang account to a microsoft account, but I have forgotten the answers to the security questions and the mail account has been having problems receiving the corresponding reset links for months. Any chance you could help me with that?

  • K_4Unl Koen Beckers (K4Unl) (@K_4Unl) reported

    @McJty Tbf i had issues with the last step. Apparently i had to turn off my adblocker before the captcha would load. I'd also really loved it if i could link three minecraft accounts to my one MS account..

  • RealSalC1 SalC1 (@RealSalC1) reported

    We still don't know if @Minecraft will enforce the Microsoft Service Agreement on Java Edition Servers. I have a feeling that it's likely going to happen at some point.
