Gotta agree with using MCCapes. Limiting an in-game feature to the lucky (living in a Minecon-hosting area) and the extremely rich has always been a terrible idea.

If my experience playing (a lot of) Trouble in Mineville lately is any indication, a huge number of people use this mod.

Exactly what I think.

Should have made a new one for this year, very lazy imo. Whatever.

This is a new cape...

The whining is strong in this thread already. Life isn't always fair and you can't always get what you want. Capes are a exclusive bonus for those who attend minecon and likely always will be. Trust me they don't get you any special treatment.

Except major attention on servers, and more likely to get OP powers. (On my experience)

I think he meant that they should have made a new design, because it's not exactly a new cape.

For the first MineCon, there was a poll. They asked the minecraft community which cape they liked best. The MineCon cape for 2012 is just recycled from the choices; it was the second most popular. Perhaps for next year's MineCon, they'll just choose the third most popular cape and so on and so forth.

Here's the source:

All and all, cool for the people who went to MineCon. I'd still prefer to use my own texture for a cape; I'll just keep using a mod.

I wish Mojang would sell Capes. Maybe I'll be able to go to Minecon next year though.

i really wish that there was a way to get capes without going somewhere in the world for a cape and why doesn't minecon come somewhere in Canada i would probably go

I wish I could of went :c Maybe next year!

I hope It is in Australia next year.

I agree. Had it in America twice (if you count Minecon 2010) and in Europe. Why not Australia? Seems only fair.

I wish i was there thats a pretty cool looking cape to be showing off.

Wow, very nice!

These capes actually look cool, like a medieval cape for a knight

I don't think I'll ever be able to go to Minecon while I want to. My parents would never let me go to anything like that. I wish Mojang could sell capes so that instead of having to travel godknowswhere in the world to the next Minecon or doing something worthy of me getting a cape, I could just pay a bit of money and KABLAMMO, a cape! I wish they could have Minecon in Australia next year. In Sydney. SYDNEY, GOT THAT?!

Sweet !

I hope minecon will be closer to me next year.

I couldnt join this time

Must.. get... Minecon Cape... next... year...
