summerreading Posted March 21, 2015 Share Posted March 21, 2015 Did your kids share a Minecraft account? I want to try out Minecraft Homeshool, but they play the game already sharing the older dc's account. Even without the classes, is it better they have their own accounts?

mom2att Posted March 21, 2015 Share Posted March 21, 2015 We have two accounts. One plays on the desktop, the other on the laptop. They enjoy playing together, much more than sharing an account and splitting up their MC time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SparklyUnicorn Posted March 21, 2015 Share Posted March 21, 2015 I think it is better to have 2 accounts. They set up stuff the way they want individually. I can imagine fighting and issues otherwise. It would be like giving one a bucket of Legos and he builds a house and then you tell the next kid during his turn that he can use the Legos from the house his brother constructed. That might not go well! My kids recently talked me into trying it. So I have an account too. In the realm of video games it's pretty reasonably priced. I'm not sure how I feel about it yet though . I built a house and I have 3 cats. I started with 2 and one somehow multiplied because I fed him fish. So at that rate I guess I can live as a virtual crazy cat lady.

kirstenhill Posted March 22, 2015 Share Posted March 22, 2015 Way less conflict if you have two. We have three accounts because we have three computers to play it on, but there is is still sometimes conflict between the four of us who play. "You got my guy lost! You used up my diamond sword!" Etc, etc. It was way worse however when we had two accounts for four players. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
summerreading Posted March 22, 2015 Author Share Posted March 22, 2015 ok 2 seems to be the winner. I asked my middle son and he got all pouty and said he wants to set it up his way, so there you have it. Has anyone's dc taken a class with Minecraft Homeschool? It sounds fun, but are they learning? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Has anyone's dc taken a class with Minecraft Homeschool? It sounds fun, but are they learning? I have not tried those. I would probably give it a try, but I'm not willing to pay a lot of money for it. I offered once and neither of my kids were interested.

Butter Posted March 23, 2015 Share Posted March 23, 2015 We have 4 accounts for 5 people. My husband informed me today the littlest really needs to buy his own account. Apparently one account per person really is best (so says my husband and kids who all like to play together at one time). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
