Looking forward to 1.6

[the_j485]

My opinins:

-Horses-If I want them I can get a mod called Mo'Cretaures

-Carpets-Redpower and Immibus add something called "microblocks"

-New clay blocks-If I want new blocks I can add them my self

-New zombies-Terrible

-New coal block- Finnaly something good.

1.5 things that I don't like:

-Super Hard Skelletons early game

-Hoppers-One word:BUILDCRAFT

ah, but the hoppers in 1.5.1 are far superior, as they can output to the side, allowing for far more compact setups[DOUBLEPOST=1368033137][/DOUBLEPOST]on

Ohhh, endercreeperbats! And cartchestwolves. It's not been noticed much in FTB since it's more of a world-editing thing and I don't know of any mods which make it accessible to players.
Hmmm...

One of the best things has to be the creepercattamedwolf, it runs around, scared out of its wits, and then when you hit it it starts hurting itself WOOT CREEPER SADISM!

stuff about stacking and horses, and winged rage-fueled skelly thestrals

Stacking horses onto bats...

Spiders are passive in the day, I wish you could train them and "become" the spider jockey. We need more super-rare spawns like that.

1.6 is looking good, but what's this new zombie mechanic I hear about? The official forums just say that they are "sociable."

It most certainly is. And no, it isn't with slab. Minor glitches like that are cosmetic, really, and not a problem. But when you get areas of pitch black because of a simple overhang, which is resolved by ether entering it (dumb) or forcing a block/lighting upgrade (smart), that is a severe problem. It didn't exist until a version or two after release. All of my time in alpha, all my time in beta, no problems. I would far prefer the old, slow, lighting updates because at least I'm not left wondering if that pitch black splotch on the wall is just 1 block deep or a cave hiding creepers.

I think somtimes people forget they are playing minecraft. Its basically virtual legos, not skyrim or something

 

[Silent_007]

Not really. That implies they have a general idea of what they want in Vanilla. Which I don't believe was ever there.

Well that's very possible. But in that case, saying that we are or aren't "supposed to" be able to do something is a pretty meaningless statement. What we are "supposed to" be able to do becomes entirely subjective at that point.

Yes, I knew that but you have to remember that in vanilla you are not supose to "automate" anything at all what so ever.

 

[the_j485]

Well, I don't agree dgdas, as why on earth would they add hoppers if not for automation?

 

[DoctorOr]

Coal block. I can see that replacing obsidian, brick or flint at the core of an industrial diamond.

Would require IC2 changing, which isn't going to happen.

Baked clay block. I could see this replacing bricks in the redpower 2 alloy furnace.

*snicker*

Until here minecraft had no automation, just semi-automation and now they added a way to automate.I think is just jeb and his crazy ideas.

 

[whizzball1]

Next up, tubes that will probably suck more than BC Pipes. But the hopper is a mod idea that Mojang didn't actually botch.

yup!

 

[DoctorOr]

You wish to share the joke with the rest of the class?

Is it somehow hilarious to hope that IC2 will come out of it's coma and do more then bugfix, or to think that Elo will never innovate her ideas to v3?

You've summarized the reason for the laughter succicently

Not sure if you're criticizing me, or agreeing with me. :/

Nobody knows what Mojang is thinking these days. xD

 

[EternalDensity]

LEGO is an uncountable noun. You don't pluralize it.

 

[Quesenek]

I'm not excited for anything that is added in the vanilla 1.6 update so far I am however excited for the mod updates. Mods and adventure maps are really the only reason I play MC anymore anyway. If I get tired of the machines or want a challenge I'll just play terrafirmacraft which is amazingly hard as hell and confusing its like the Stone Ages which is what I pictured MC to be in when I first started playing the game.

One of these days I have to start up a TFCraft world.

Be sure to read the guides on the wiki because without them you'll be very confused on how to progress Also don't go out at night until you have a sword you will die very easy a javlin cannot kill mobs fast enough and you'll die.

*pats back* Don't feel bad.

I'mma get alla those shader mods and do a bit of skyrim-adventure in a Tale of Kingdoms world.

 

[bwillb]

I have to echo what other people have said here. Mojang's focus right now is completely off. Here's my short list of what has gone on far too long without resolution.

Hell all I want is a goddamn button to delete or ignore my player skin so that I can see myself with a high res skin from a texture pack without having to play in offline mode.
