I'd love to install all the mods that let MC look like that but my computer would melt.
I have been playing a bit of Minecraft again after a huge break. It's still fun to play but it feels like it's not finished.
[QUOTE=Derp Y. Mail;39805601]I'd love to install all the mods that let MC look like that but my computer would melt.[/QUOTE] What are the mods that make minecraft look like that?
[QUOTE=PieClock;39805740]What are the mods that make minecraft look like that?[/QUOTE] It's a rendered image, it's not actually minecraft.
[QUOTE=PieClock;39805740]What are the mods that make minecraft look like that?[/QUOTE] It's at least Sonic Shaders and the Water Reflection Mod.

Dunno.
Dunno, maybe its just me, but MC fells like it needs RPG elements too it. and a better combat system.
I want to get in again, but recent updates have killed my performance to unplayable. Optifine's hardly doing squat for me. I hope that if they ever rewrite the engine I can get back in.
[QUOTE=Intoxicated Spy;39805817]Dunno, maybe its just me, but MC fells like it needs RPG elements too it. and a better combat system.[/QUOTE] I don't think it needed that originally, but it's pretty weird to have an experience system and then only use it for enchanting, even more so when enchanting is such late game stuff.
[QUOTE=Intoxicated Spy;39805817]Dunno, maybe its just me, but MC fells like it needs RPG elements too it. and a better combat system.[/QUOTE] the combat system would be massively improved if blocking actually did anything. also mob animations, which I can't believe still aren't in yet
"oh lol shit compooter can't run 8-bit grapikhs lololol"
why don't they use actual screenshots to promote it?
[QUOTE=Cone;39805886]the combat system would be massively improved if blocking actually did anything. also mob animations, which I can't believe still aren't in yet[/QUOTE] it would be, true, but it would still be far from good...at all...melee combat is essentially click, backup, click, repeat no tatic or anything.
[QUOTE=Dj-J3;39805746]It's a rendered image, it's not actually minecraft.[/QUOTE] [IMG]http://www.pcgamesn.com/sites/default/files/Minecraft Westeros.png[/IMG] From the site the image originates: [IMG_THUMB]http://westeroscraft.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/02/sunspear_001-1.jpg[/IMG_THUMB] I don't get what's up with so many disagrees on Dj's post. With DoF and AO like that, there is a heavy chance that someone used one of the many easy-to-use tools available to export a Minecraft map to 3DS Max and render it like this.
[QUOTE=Lonke;39805897]"oh lol shit compooter can't run 8-bit grapikhs lololol"[/QUOTE] you clearly don't have a damn clue how Minecraft works.
[QUOTE=Eeshton;39806033]it would be, true, but it would still be far from good...at all...melee combat is essentially click, backup, click, repeat no tatic or anything.[/QUOTE] yeah, but at least it would be on the level of a Bethesda RPG or something similar, which isn't a good level to be on at all, but would still better than just being awful and unfinished like it is now
[QUOTE=darth-veger;39806246]you clearly don't have a damn clue how Minecraft works.[/QUOTE] Or how graphic redering works.
[QUOTE=Dj-J3;39805746]It's a rendered image, it's not actually minecraft.[/QUOTE] For people disagreeing, THAT IS rendered. That viewdistance and tree look is not done in-game.
I always thought building machines with redstone sounded most interesting about Minecraft. Too bad Terraria doesn't have the same variety there. It's still fun to build a mechanism that automatically closes the door behind you and lets three block thick lava pour over the zombie horde chasing you. Or those people building volcanos that recycle some of their lava and glitch-multiply them for INFINITE LAVA SPREADING ACROSS THE WOOOORLD until the game crashes.
[QUOTE=Lonke;39805897]"oh lol shit compooter can't run 8-bit grapikhs lololol"[/QUOTE] This is dumb on so many levels [editline]5th March 2013[/editline] And about the update, they keep adding shit that nobody really asked for. When are we getting more underground content? Ores, monsters, liquids, whatever? It's MINEcraft, for fucks sake. Sad thing is that the next update is biome update.
How bout reverting to 1.7 beta terrain generation. Non-shit gen.
Again the modding API is postponed. *sigh*
those Minecraft Westeros pictures are indeed pre-rendered, they've said so themselves
[QUOTE=Brt5470;39806937]How bout reverting to 1.7 beta terrain generation. Non-shit gen.[/QUOTE] watching older videos really shows how shitty the terrain generation is now, everything that isn't a ravine is a fucking field and everything that isn't a fucking field is a god damn swamp with nothing in it
What saddens me the most about this update is that they have done nothing to improve the Powered Minecart. I guess it will continue to be useless until someone physically slaps Jeb into fixing it.
If Skeletons shoot faster, I'm hoping we get the ability to reflect arrows with a well-timed block, since too many arrows per minute would make fighting them trickier. Also I do hope that 1.6 is the Combat Update; a shield or an offhand slot would be pretty cool.

Btw, my video just hit 2million views :3 [video=youtube;asImTDkPWKA]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=asImTDkPWKA[/video]

Maybe even dual wielding if they add an off-hand. A whole bunch of new weapons would be awesome though. Honestly though, I can't be the only one who pretty much does not care about Redstone at all. I use it pretty much just for making sticky piston gates and that is it.
[QUOTE=Clavus;39807031]Again the modding API is postponed. *sigh*[/QUOTE] Reminds me of when I stopped playing Minecraft. It was two years ago, and everyone was looking forward to modding API.
[QUOTE=Intoxicated Spy;39805817]Dunno, maybe its just me, but MC fells like it needs RPG elements too it. and a better combat system.[/QUOTE] Eh, I actually liked it better before all the RPG elements. Back in Alpha, MC was simple but surprisingly polished. Now they just kinda dumped a bin full of random stuff in there and it just feels weird
