Minecraft beta 1.5 video preview: Weather, stats and achievements - Games

[QUOTE=BANNED USER;29236883]I still think a real good swamp biome needs to be implemented, that has a rising water level dependent on the time of day and/or the weather. I'd like to make a Bayou cabin with swamp creepers lurking about.[/QUOTE] This would actually be really cool to have. I could just think of all the weird looking creepers that you only see depending on the water level.

And swamp biomes need to be redone as well i think, there should be more shallow water everywhere and the water should be a murky brownish green color, maybe a slight fog as you enter swamps too with a new type of swamp looking trees about the place.

I dont even know if ive seen a swamp before, it all looks the same.

Imagine walking through a new type of opaque swamp water, and a fucking creeper rises out of it in front of you, just outta nowhere.

Just went to check the 1.5 thread on the official forums and apparently I've been banned for 7 days for... they didn't even give a reason. It must have been the Notch defence force.

[QUOTE=Eeshton;29236492]Man, I really wish I could do this, but I always, ALWAYS ruin really good games with cheats. I just wish for once I could control myself. :saddowns:[/QUOTE] I cheat all the time in Minecraft all the time. I use Too Many Items too much. But it's mostly just to repair trees and buildings that retarded creepers decided to blow the fuck up.

-snip- [editline]17th April 2011[/editline] aha, first time that happens to me... :gonk:

Guys, lava boats! :D [url]http://twitter.com/#!/notch/status/59722192555999232[/url]

[QUOTE=Matix;29255788]Guys, lava boats! :D [url]http://twitter.com/#!/notch/status/59722192555999232[/url][/QUOTE] FINALLY, my dream of traversing the Nether seas will come true!

Adding regrowing flowers is tempting to Notch! [url]http://twitter.com/#!/notch/status/59631517231620096[/url]

This is shaping up to be one of the best updates in a long while.

[QUOTE=Eeshton;29210877]A down elevator would be easy, an up one would be the hard part.[/QUOTE] Not really, wall of pistons, sand is floor, gentle downwards. Launch sand + player up, piston extends to catch.

I shall make a fort in the middle of a dry lake bed on top of an island, construct a dock of Stone, then fill it with Lava.

Is page 12 broken for anyone else? [editline]17th April 2011[/editline] Problem solved

The one thing thats going to annoy me is the way the rain will look. It probably cant be helped, but having fully opaque blue pixels will look strange, i dont see why a little more effort cant be put in to make them slightly transparent.

I just hope that [b]HORRIBLE[/b] rain sound gets replaced, it doesn't fit the game at all and it sounds shitty anyway. It would be more appropriate to emit that kind of sound at the bottom of a small waterfall.

The getting wood achievement should be called [B]Erection[/B]: Acquire wood.

[QUOTE=RivaGe;29261944]Jeb promised that earlier anyway.[/QUOTE] Yeah that "Notch" guy is such a copy cat. I'm gonna go tell his mom. He won't be able to play Black Ops for a week.

I hate how I'm always dissatisfied with my shit, forcing me to nuke it with TNT. Notch should fix that.

I have to admit, Minecraft with modern graphics would be kinda neat. Like, the creepers would actually be scary. But anyways, I hope this comes out later today.

This will be amazing. Might get me playing single player again.

im so fapping to this

Hopefully it comes out in the next few days. Not on Wednesday though, I won't be at home.
