Notch says he's added one.

Phylum 09-28-2011 04:17 AM

He also says he's removed Herobrine.

Wil 09-28-2011 04:17 AM

But he says that repeatedly.

enchilado 09-28-2011 04:27 AM

According to the Minecraft wiki, what he actually removed was the Human mob.

Is there a use for Enderpearls yet?

According to the wiki, Ender Pearls will have a unique ability. When thrown, the player will teleport to the Ender Pearl's impact location, but take 5 points of fall damage. This will not work in Creative.

Oh my. I should be able to make some neat puzzles with those on my adventure map.

Dynamithix 09-28-2011 12:33 PM

Hey, this thread's over a year old now. Woo.

So uh, is there a release date for 1.9 yet?

STM 09-28-2011 01:41 PM

No, as of yet unconfirmed but expected obviously before November.

Gwan-Thwei 09-28-2011 07:23 PM

Anyone seen enderman open his mouth yet? Hella scary.

Crashpunk 09-29-2011 08:31 AM

Yeah, they open there mouthes when they are attacking you. It is quite creepy.

Scraby 09-29-2011 01:34 PM

seems that the pre release has been patched to pre release 2 :D

Havoc 09-30-2011 08:45 AM

Notch just announced the introduction of magic in Minecraft. Anyone else feel like they're just adding shit for the sake of adding shit now?

Crashpunk 09-30-2011 08:59 AM

I completly agree Havoc. Why doesn't notch look at the amazing Mobs and put them in Minecraft
Buildcraft, Better then Wolves yadda yadda...)

Anyway NEWS!

Animal Breeding and more Music Discs are set to be released in 1.9 Here's the Yogscast cheaking them out!




Dynamithix 09-30-2011 09:12 AM

Why would they add magic? To be honest, it seems that they're turning Minecraft into a weird RPG-sandbox game and that isn't a good thing in my opinion. I really liked Minecraft alpha.

Scraby 09-30-2011 09:23 AM

i like the new discs,and the disk 11 is really creepy,its like a (presumably)killed human chased by a ghast.also i really feel that minecraft is loosing that thing that it had....

STM 09-30-2011 09:26 AM

The only disc I liked out of that was the horror one.

And I agree with Dynamithix, what is Notch doing with our beloved Minecraft?

Crashpunk 09-30-2011 09:35 AM

I really like the Disc 11. I wasn't expecting the actual game sounds of footsteps. Makes you think about all them times your running back to your base when its dark and also reminds your Minecraft is a creepy game.

A Ghast? Naa, Sounded more like a Endermen.

Ingoring good mods and making crappy RPG like elements.

STM 09-30-2011 09:44 AM

But why Wariopunk? Whyyyyyy?

dripik 09-30-2011 10:23 AM

Magic does sound a bit off of an idea. I don't think combat needs any further elements - today I realized that I barely use parrying and jump-critting. Then again, magic might not be solely combat-related at all...

More world content, like animals a la Mo' Creatures would be more welcome IMO. I'm not sure about stuff like IndustrialCraft. I mean, it's an amazing mod, but the game kinda loses that rustic, semi-medievalish feel to it.

Manco 09-30-2011 10:55 AM

Yeah, I don’t like the sound of magic or potions at all. I’d rather just see more world content—more creatures, more biomes, more terrain features, stuff that makes the world more fun to explore. Hell, I’d even take some form of late-game quest for a hidden temple or special items or some shit.

Havoc 09-30-2011 11:28 AM

I just want the buildcraft mod and such other huge liked mods for Minecraft implemented in the game. Notch seems to ignore a lot of them though and adding all these weird things in. Does XP have any use in 1.9?

Dynamithix 09-30-2011 11:34 AM

Yeah, I think it boosted your mining speed and how high you can jump or something.

Splat 09-30-2011 12:51 PM

I think there are two things you guys are completely overlooking.

The first is that if you don't like something, guess what? No one's forcing you to build it! If you don't like it, don't do it! If you don't like magic, trash the magic ingredients and get on with your lives.

The second is that Notch doesn't just want to replicate mods. That's why he allows mods. He makes the game he wants to make with contents he wants to make. Occasionally something like pistons or flying will be so popular he'll put it in, but mostly he lets modders get on with their own business while he gets on with his. If you like the Mo' Creatures mod, use it! It's there, it exists, its big and complicated and complete; why should Notch waste a load of time remaking something that already exists, and which players can easily get hold of and install if they want to?
He's not making magic to replicate magic mods; he's doing it because from when he first made redstone he's been saying he has an idea for how he'd make magic work in Minecraft that he'd like to implement one day.

dripik 09-30-2011 01:07 PM

True and well put. Sure, mods are easy enough to turn to if you're playing SSP. But it gets a bit more problematic when it comes to SMP, which is pretty much the only MCing I do nowadays. My point was that a proper implementation of a certain feature makes sure that it's available to everyone in a uniform way.

We were just having a conversation about Minecraft mods! I didn't expect a kind of Splattish Inquisition!

DarkHoodness 09-30-2011 01:21 PM



Sorry, I couldn't resist. :P

Havoc 09-30-2011 01:50 PM

Just watched the animal breeding video. Seriously, wtf they breed instantly. It's just like simply spawning animals at this pace -_-

Splat 09-30-2011 02:06 PM

But at a price in wheat. We're gonna need another wheat-farm.

Also, need to give me avatar a fancy red uniform...

Crashpunk 10-01-2011 01:02 AM

Why couldn't they make baby mobs for beeding?

why not putting this in the game?

Havoc 10-01-2011 02:50 AM

Because Notch has a reputation of being a lazy coder and as such just copied the wolf code for all the other animals. Added a few lines more to make them spawn a new mob. Voila, done.

Crashpunk 10-01-2011 03:09 AM

He's a Multi-Millionaire now, Don't expect him to do actual work now. :tard:
