Balmung Posted August 31, 2011 Posted August 31, 2011 Theres a new mob called the Pegasus, Its supposed to be like some sort of winged bear Which roosts on mountain tops. Quote
fatboysmarty Posted August 31, 2011 Author Posted August 31, 2011 thanks but i dont know if thats true Quote
Sacrevy Posted August 31, 2011 Posted August 31, 2011 Im not sure if that's true too.. And with that i mean its probably not gonna happen ;\ Quote
Dr. Pannenkoek Posted August 31, 2011 Posted August 31, 2011 Well there is supposed to be another mob in minecraft apart from the enderman. Quote
Dr.Minky Posted August 31, 2011 Posted August 31, 2011 (edited) I saw a new mob on a notch thing somewhere that looked like some kind of krustacian type thing.. He may of scratched it though, sea mobs are kind of useless.. Gtfo squids! Edited August 31, 2011 by Dr.Minky Quote
Dr.Minky Posted August 31, 2011 Posted August 31, 2011 New blocks:- Melons- Stone bricks- Stone Brick half blocks- Stone brick stairs- Cracked stone brick- Cracked stone brick half blocks- Cracked stone brick stairs- Mossy stone brick- Mossy stone brick half blocks- Mossy stone brick stairs- Brick half blocks- Brick stairs- Glass panesMay well be more, thats all I can remember though.Lighting changes:- You can change the brightness using a slider on the options- At night time there is a purple glow- Torches give off a warm orange glow at night time, lava also appears much brighter- The day/night transition is completely smooth instead of chunky- If you are in a dark area such as a cave, when you come out and look at the light your screen goes slightly blurry and flared for a short time (like real life)Technical changes:- Faster chunk rendering- Better seed generator- New animations for explosions and other things- Every mob drops more useful things now. All animals except for sheep drop their own food, and zombies now drop rotten meat. I assume this will be cooked and turned to good meat or be given some other use.- The XP system. Keep in mind that this is useless at the moment, they dont have anything to spend the experience you gain on, its purely for showing off with.I wont put anything else as I'm sure you're aware of the rivers and ravines and abandoned mines and blahblahblahksffnsdm,fg....

Dr.Minky Posted August 31, 2011 Posted August 31, 2011 yeahh didnt bother putting the other things as I figured people already know em. Didnt know about the blue spiders though! Silver fish would be the things I saw then, they look odd.. Don't know what their use is. Quote
Dr.Minky Posted August 31, 2011 Posted August 31, 2011 when will the update come?About 2 weeks, Quote
The Lazy Peon Posted August 31, 2011 Posted August 31, 2011 Literally bricking myself with excitement. Quote
xeim Posted August 31, 2011 Posted August 31, 2011 Man minecraft is transforming in an rpg well not that i have a problem with that^^ my favorite feature in 1.8 is the height raise ^^ The Lazy Peon 1 Quote
Pufulet Posted August 31, 2011 Posted August 31, 2011 This 1.8 update will be very tasty. I hope they add alchemy with dyes or a more usefull netherworld. Quote
Dr.Minky Posted August 31, 2011 Posted August 31, 2011 Well there will be an Aether/skylands soon Pufulet! Not sure if its in 1.8 or even 1.9, will definitely be in there though! Not sure about alchemy and stuff.. I just use the nether for getting porkchops mainly Quote
TheGreenGrasshopper Posted August 31, 2011 Posted August 31, 2011 Notch wants to add a skylands but he says that the nether has to be improved first. Adding new content and such. So don't count on any skylands or floating stuff any time soon.Alchemy is just a mod, I doubt any of the mojang crew even knows about it's existance seeing how only few people klnow about it. Quote

Yogscast featured it didnt they? Quote
TheGreenGrasshopper Posted August 31, 2011 Posted August 31, 2011 yes indeed the yogscast did do a mod spotlight on it ^^ Quote
Dr.Minky Posted August 31, 2011 Posted August 31, 2011 New thing!- Rotten meat (from zombies) will heal a few bars of health, but will also poison you and drain it. Only really useful if your about to attack someone, then you'd get a short term health gain Quote
TheGreenGrasshopper Posted August 31, 2011 Posted August 31, 2011 (edited) Sprinting is now infinite but drains your food bar like mad + your jump is boosted Edited August 31, 2011 by TheGreenGrasshopper Quote
Dr.Minky Posted August 31, 2011 Posted August 31, 2011 Indeed, I dont know if thats good or not.. Its like if you play a game where your character walks slow, you never think 'this takes ages' until you use speed hacks. e.g. play oblivion normally for a month or so, then drink 100 skooma and see how fast you run. The fact that you CAN run faster will probably annoy me haha. No doubt people will have an unlimited food bar hack though in like a couple weeks of release... *sigh* Quote
TheGreenGrasshopper Posted August 31, 2011 Posted August 31, 2011 If it's running like running from one of those mods it'll only be used (atleast for me) when having to do long flat distances. Quote
Balmung Posted September 1, 2011 Posted September 1, 2011 Think I read somewhere that clouds wont cut through buildings and structures anymore. Quote
TheGreenGrasshopper Posted September 1, 2011 Posted September 1, 2011 Yeah that's right, Notch is placing the clouds above the current buildheight limit. Quote
Sacrevy Posted September 1, 2011 Posted September 1, 2011 Sweet, that silverfish would drop iron? ... Blue spiders? Endermans, they should be tamable to command them Quote
