Sure, as long as they're not x-ray mods.

It appears the MC login auth servers are down due to an exploit allowing users to login under any migrated Mojang account. Note: No accounts &/or account details have been compromised.

They are very different games.
Yes I do know that. Just deciding to choose one and play.
Diablo III seems to have a massive following (so it must be alright) but I personally couldn't really get into it. I've had minecraft for ages but never really gave it a chance until the other week when I was bored and I haven't been able to stay away since. You can actually build anything and its great fun online.
The OcUK server is excellent as well and there's some very helpful/friendly people who play on there and the server is one of the best managed that I've heard of.
For £16~ I would highly recommend Minecraft.
I thought as a passtime it wouldn't be bad. But then again if it's just a build anything game, I'm thinking maybe I would get tired of it quickly. I won't know unless I give it a chance. I have been watching videos of it on Youtube, but I feel as if it's just a itch I want to scratch.
basicly yea.
its sort of like a sandbox mini mmo on the pc
most servers suport 40+ players at a time , theres a few that have slots for 100+
theres loads of really good mods my favorite is a collection of mods called "tekkit" that adds hundreds of new machines to the game and allows for some really good creations for automated factories etc
dont be put off by the low res pixel blocky graphics either as theres a lot of texture packs out there.
while it will never look anything like crysis u can improve the graphics to an acceptable level.
im using
I would like to play single player, what can be done on servers with other people? Is there a PVP aspect or is it just build and mine and create tools? I'm not really fussed about textures I can look into that later. I just want something to help me pass some time.
You can play either single player or online. The online play is good. I don't really get involved with much online stuff due to other commitments away from the PC but it's good logging on and seeing the world evolve. Especially when you know that everything has been built by players.
Playing online as well you've got the knowledge of all the other players to help with bits you might not be so sure about.
The Technic website isn't working.
Any chance someone could send me the launcher?
