Hey guys, i'm new to Minecraft. I'm thinking about buying it, but I know I do not have a great laptop. When I try to play the free version, it works fine if i move around, or if I look around with my mouse, but when I try to move and look at the same time it freezes up. Is this just because i'm playing on the free version and will it get better if i buy the full version? Or is it my laptop?

It's probably your laptop.

It's probably your laptop. Beta has lots more stuff going on in the background than Classic (for example, spawning mobs that move around, redstone circuits, etc.) so if your computer has a hard time with Classic, then Beta will possibly be worse.

I might just be Minecraft Classic.

It's probably just Minecraft Classic 'cause I have the same problem with it, but Beta runs just fine. I think he'll be fine getting Beta.

He's Right

Buster is right. I have Beta and it runs flawlessly. But when i try to play the in browser version of MC it lags/freezes horribly. I don't even think it's lag. I think it's some bug or something.
