Critical hit's while jumping IS confirmed, Notch states in the video that is one way to get a critical hit and he shows it throughout the video! Also it DOES make sense in a way because something would hurt more if it was being pressed down on you , rather than just hitting you with it's side...
Also at what point in the video can you see silverfish, I am far too lazy to watch it all myself! :L
Not in that video, no clear images of the Silverfish exist yet.
And Crits are NOT balanced. why should I be able to press space bar, and insta kill you? or a Creeper? Where's the survival? There is none.
Sheep have five hearts. A diamond pickaxe deals three hearts damage.
Double that would be six hearts damage, more than the sheep's health.
Critical hits don't do double damage.
The game... Is saved.
And Notch is a liar.
*Sigh* I don't give a damn anymore. Simple, it won't effect me, I'm installing a plugin that makes crits you know, actually lucky hits, not relied on attacks. Even if it does 50% more, that's still 8 hearts rounded up, and stupid to take 80% of a mob's hp just because you jump. If mobs hit 9 hearts, sure it's fine then, but they don't.
Anyways! Bed, done arguing over this.
Pm me if you find tentative, useful information! I'll add it asap :smile.gif:
I tweeted jeb about the Crits, i'm hoping he replies :biggrin.gif: (Curse twitter's character limit, I had to tweet it into 2 different tweets, and at the end it got all jumbled like WhichWouldMeanWeWouldBe Then had to go to another tweet :tongue.gif:)
One thing noone has pointed out yet is that there will be no insta-heals now. Hunger in my opinion looks balanced enough, it seems to run out slowly and increase health slowly. I timed it in the 1.8 video in this thread to be 1 minute for 1 hunger loss and regain 1/2 heart every 5 seconds. Thats not so bad, but what about this situation: you have an epic battle with the forces of darkness and come out the victor with 1/2 heart. It is still night and you are far from home. Instead of being able to heal up and continue, you will now have to wait for nearly a full minute for your health to regen. That to me is unbelievably annoying. Hunger seems better than I expected actually, but that issue needs to be dealt with. I would personally have hunger run out a bit slower and add a (maybe less powerful) insta-heal to food, or add a new item (special food or potion maybe) that has that ability.
On Twitter, Notch or Jeb don't remember said that. Seeds will not create the same terrains ! But you don't need to make a new world, new generated chunks will have new terrain features. And if you mean the bad junction between old and new chunks, just go into the Nether, move a lot then create new portal to get back into the normal world, with a new generated terrain :biggrin.gif: (I will do this :wink.gif: )
Is there actually video proof where Notch said that 1.7 worlds will have new terrain when 1.8 comes out if you travel to ungenerated chunks?

yeah in the 51 minute long live stream notch said "the worlds will work, but you won't get the new biomes and stuff until you go into new areas" at 10:48
I think they said they'll be splitting it up with 1.8 and 1.9
Notch said that was one of the release date options, the other options are in the first post.
I think notch should just release 1.8 when they have almost of the large content in and a lot of the bugs fixed, they can then add the rest of the small content along with more bug fixes.

Thanks but do you know what the guy said at 11:02 before the beeping started? I heard something about "new world". That got me confused..

Jesus Christ, you haven't even played the new update and you're already calling parts of it broken. What do you know? Don't assume that a fancy new feature is going to be broken to all hell and back, because even if Notch is a "child", he still knows how to make a balanced game. 1.8 hasn't been completed yet, and they're definitely going to change some things around based on the feedback from PAX. Don't assume something's going to be broken yet.

Can someone please answer me? I really want to know this...
With the diamond sword? Yeah...
I see what you're saying, but, it's a better situation than I thought it was. I may still talk to Jeb about this.
I'll make sure to post new info when I find it.
Can someone please answer me? I really want to know this... I'm deciding whether or not I should start a new world

Retired StaffCrits are done by jumping and hitting a mob on the way down. Also from fully charged bow shots.
As of right now, Sprinting is unlimited, regardless of hunger level. Notch has said that this is likely to change.
More stuff, not going to go into more detail is here:
