This is only scratching the surface of what today's update is offering - you can see the full list right here, or by checking out the official Wiki!
REMINDER: The update might not be immediately available in every part of the world at once, but even if you don't have it, worry not! It shouldn't take more than 24 hours to fully distribute.
I played around with it. It seems to also have a graphical change. Looks a bit cartoony to me. I've never played the PC version so I'm not sure. Tried map seed "1.8.2 Test" and got 3/4 ocean, medium land mass with arctic and swamp. Northeast had a small land with one village near plains. Deleted. I'll try tutorial and creative later.
Ok, this may be a silly or stupid question, and it may have been answered elsewhere. But I haven't been able to get a solid yes or no answer anywhere I've looked. Are Villagers coming with the Villages?
Going by the PC version, villagers were added in the full version, which was 1.0. The latest XBOX 360 version, as you know, is Beta 1.8.2. So, my answer is, yes, there will be villagers, but not yet.
THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!!! Ive been checking for updates EVERY DAY!!!!!!! IM SO EXITED!!!
I just have to laugh here "IM SO EXITED!!!" Hahahaha who exited you? I think the word you want is exciting. I could be wrong though maybe you like being exited.
Ok, I joined this forum just to post about this. I LOVE the update, its been sorely wanted. though, im not looking forward to the endermen destroying my house (or pieces of it). First reactions "YES!" "...what the is a sponge?"
I just updated the game, but when I try to play it it crashes at the load screen! It litterally freezes my whole xbox; I have to get up to shut it off. At the top in the white letters it says "Initializing Server" and right above the load bar it says "Loading Spawn Area." It crashes once it's this close: (<--- This is a replica of my load bar I have created. Enjoy.) I've tried switching the device that I had saved the game on(from my USB to Cloud), I tried searching for an answer on Yahoo, I tried looking it up, everything. I was really looking forward to this and now I can't play it! Has anyone else experienced this? If this has happened to you, how did you fix it without losing data?I don't want any random answers if you have not experienced this problem first-hand. Thanks guys! Oh! Btw! I just found out that on my brother's account, he is having no problem with it. What the heck!
I just woke up and started playing it, it's awesome! But the endermen took choppy, glitchy steps and their eyes looked much bigger from a distance. And the door sound wouldn't work for 5 minutes. Otherwise, it was awesome. Too bad there isn't villagers to keep me company in Npc Villages.
