I think that this update will be released in late September or early October. Many people think it will be on early Sept. ,but after PAX, notch's suggestions and reviews will give him more things to work on this 1.8 update. I dont wanna play Minecraft during the school year :sad.gif: sucks. Wish it would just be on August
You know, people should stop whining about winning.
After all, haven't you ever wanted to play a game, like LoZ, and walk around afterward? I think winning, and still having the game running is like...the coolest thing a developer could ever do.
Stop it and do something trolls do .. if you are an adult troll go on some mysterios websites okay ?
So,did Notch tell if we can only increase the heigt or also decrease ? Would be funny to make a challenge this way :biggrin.gif:
Unfortunately, I think that's only a speculative feature. I don't think we know if Notch is actually planning on increasing the map height in any way for sure. There are mods, though, so there's always that. There are ALWAYS mods.
I agree, that might be interesting, but it might also be really stupid, just irritating, like "Oh yeah, I don't have any room." You don't actually depend on the map height to survive, so I probably would just make the game boring.
I love all the new features and such that will come out but in a way it will take away from what minecraft is in my opinion. If they add a button to turn adventure mode on and off however, i will be very happy! Anyone agree?
I would hope that is how it works, same with any of the other modes.

Well, be glad that you don't have summer school like I do and then perhaps school in the Fall too. Then you have no choice but to play during the school year.
I like the idea of being able to summon a boss. I would prefer to have to build the alter of summoning than having to find it.
I don't remember where he said it, but I think it was just going to be for realistic difficulty. Of course he might have changed his mind by now. Game developers often do that.

Bet you didn't think creepers could come out a ceiling.

Hunger is apparently replacing the "eat and instantly gain health" mechanic. Food is supposed to heal indirectly now. (As stated by Jeb_ on Reddit.)
I have a thread explaining my take on how this will work, feel free to visit my profile and take a look. In my version, hunger won't take away from your health, but rather a full hunger-bar enables you to heal.
okay so i was at camp for the last week and i havent seen whats new.
originally i was excited for 1.8 but then i saw the chicken thing and the new bar, plus it gets more dangerous as u play and there are levels???
MINECRAFT ISNT AN RPG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
personally im not updating.
even though most of it looks good, i just dont want a sandbox game turning into a rpg

Don't worry, you can toggle the food bar and levels only affect your mining/breaking speed

so you heal faster the when the meter is full and vice versa but you will always heal but slowly unless you eat something or something like that?
that system could work, no more being stuck in a cave with no way to regain your health because you ran out of food, at least i hope its gonna be something close to that.

levels affect mining speed????
-sounds like an rpg

I'm very sure this is going to be of the style of Oblivion. You do something many times and you get better at it (sounds like this game I've heard of, RealLife, never tried it)
There is absolutely no way notch will design it so that "you can't use iron til level 5" or some crap like that, he knows he will lose everyone that way.
When I first played this game, I thought it was a sandbox rpg. And I don't think I'm wrong.

yeah that would **** me off cause i go diamond hunting in my first two nights :tongue.gif:
guess what... "u cant mine obsidian until u hav a diamond pickaxe"
you know, just like in Zelda :
- you can't lift those stones until you get the gloves
- you can't run without boots
there it could be exactly the same, without even changing current gameplay.
- you're now advanced enough to mine faster than you had ever been able to ! congratulation !
- you're now advanced enough to open this strange dungeon door. A door like you had never seen until recently by the way... woo... how mysterious...
- you're now advanced enough to be able to read this secret parchment you found yesterday (15 minutes ago) in the nether
You don't want to "advance" ?
Well... keep mining with your wooden tools then :wink.gif:
no i want to do stuff crazy like going to da nether with nothing
I like your disturbed avatar :3

Officaily, not really other than Notch will make it more fun.

Notch is going to make hunger optional.
sooo i'm gonna say.. source?
