Beta creative? what the ****?

Beta Creative = New Creative on Beta engine. Chances are you will need to buy the game to play it. It will also probably replace old creative. Better start converting those maps.

Although, there is talk of keeping Creative alive without Minecraft. If creative did go down, anyone with the WOM client and a up-to-date copy of the Minecraft.jar for creative could still play. They also talk about running servers that people could connect to through a modified client. It wouldn't be too hard to make an entire pirate creative game if someone had the resources. Plus, Minecraft is relatively open source, so it could be possible to more or less "update" the pirated creative game.

Nevertheless, I would start converting those classic maps to beta maps.
