So, this is my legit world with no mods/cheats and look what I see when I walk into my base...(which is deep underground (y:12)

I play single player on the latest snapshot (12w27a)

HOW DID A ZOMBIE PIGMAN GET INTO MY BASE



THE NETHER MONSTERS ARE TAKING OVER. Just imagine if ghasts could escape......

Has this happened to anyone else?

Zombie pigment can spawn during thunderstorms if lightning hits a pig.

either this or 1 spawned on your portal

Because lightning will hit an enclosed wooden house at Y=12 and not burn it to the ground.

This is part of the snapshot.

maybe it was a pig that got zapped, then walked into the house when the door was open?

Part of the new snapshot and 1.3 is that while it is rare, a zombie pigman can spawn in your portal in the overworld.

What _Rublix_ said. It's a new feature of the snapshot.

What _Rublix_ said is 100% true

That's frekin awesome! I've heard rumors about this, but other people denied it. That dude definitely came from the portal.

Are they neutral in the overworld? Make him be your business partner!

Trap him and make a shrine!

In the new update you will find random portals throughout the world and they will spawn a zombie pigman during the night at a low chance.

don't pigmen have like a 2% chance to spawn in the overworld a couple blocks away from portals? lol

You must trap him and force him to watch as you slaughter his over world animal brethren, cook their flesh in furnaces, and devour it to further your own life!

Kill it with fire!

Good luck burning a nether mob.
