The thing is, the current biome generation is clearly much worse than whatever is at PAX.
You can build an overlook shelter right now and see, like, ten biomes from your house.
It doesn't seem to be like that at ALL anymore. It's especially apparent when Notch is flying.
In fact, I haven't seen a single snowy biome in all of the footage.
EDIT: I don't think you can one-shot with critical hits...
And hunger is a good addition, IMO, it will put emphasis on being prepared for fights.
...why is Notch so... well, blatantly empty headed?
Why the HELL would you make critical hits, have people jump and hit you? Are mobs not trivial enough? now I can 1 shot ANY mob at ANY time, as many times as I like without punishment? Crap, I can one shot players too! Pvp was already too damage-intense, and he just doubled it into a jumping-jack-a-thon.
*facepalm* First thing I'm finding is a remove hunger/critical hits plugin. Terrible bloody additions.
DiamondAxe+Jumpingperson+Pvp=Overkill D:
EDIT:Ohyeah I would keep hunger, it's a great addition in my mind, if it's not TO messed up.
Diamond sword hits 5 hearts. crit doubles attack=10 hearts. mobs have 10 hearts. players have 10 hearts. GG. -.-
Diamond axe is a what? 66% of crit by itself, even before this update.(I'm pretty sure about that anyways :tongue.gif:)
It was probably a custom plug-in the server had.
Oh ****, you're right about diamond swords, assuming that critical hits deal double damage.
If it's as it seems, we should definitely start a petition. A one-shot for JUMPING? Ridiculous.
Going by every 1.8 video I've watched so far, torches don't emit light when being held. They only do so when placed, like normal. The bad quality on Notch's PAX streams made it look like mobile light, but if you watch the higher quality videos (Like this!) you can see no mobile light from torches.

I agree, but I keep being told other wise. So I'll just slap an unconfirmed tag on it for the sake of it.

Axe killed mobs in 2 hits when crit. 2x3=6 6x2=12. Aka it doubles damage, 100% of the time.
Aka, most idiotic, unbalanced move I've seen yet in minecraft. Damage needed to be toned DOWN not UP. How is it a challenge when I can two shot everything? And PVP now is game over with this. *sigh* really wish I was in Notch's place, and you can argue 'you have no idea how hard it is!' I do. How? I can't say... my real life stays seperate from here, for privacy and other reason so I can't really detail my experience. :tongue.gif:
Here are the crappy live stream videos
-videosnip-
Anymore videos I come across I'll be sure to post here
Appreciated. That bar one is interesting, though they look... messy. And the 'ivy' likely is dual purpose for ivy, and pumpkins, as there's no other 'vine' texture for the pumpkin patch vines and such stated that are being added with melons/pumpkins. Hm.
I dont remember if I saw this in the first post or not, but you can get a crit hit with a fully charged bow.
Well, Notch showed bows can crit. But not how, as he wasn't jumping... so puzzled how bow-crits hit atm. As he hit foes with a 3-charge multiple times, but only a few actually, you know, crit.
Ah hah...? Which I didn't even read the main post of, and commented to relevant posts, and have no idea who you are? Sounds like you have an issue of entitlement. Please go away, as you and me both 'copy and pasted' our stuff from freakin' Notch and Jeb and the few PAX folks.
Edit: lol, he ninja-deleted as I was replying. Darn those Ninjas!
He also made that same post here once, I reported, a mod deleted, then made it agian :tongue.gif:.
So I reported again :tongue.gif:
OT:Where do people pull these oddball release dates from >,< I've just seen 2 more.
hmm, i dont know then
Also should say the brightness slider goes from Moody to Bright
Righto, adding that.
And guys, if that tr-...trouble maker... yes... comes back, just report him, don't argue or cause trouble, we're all here to discuss and enjoy 1.8 and its possibilities (and now 1.9 it seems!).
Speak of the devil. Someones on their way to get banned, if their last two posts were removed, and they keep going! *Sigh* silly people.

I was rewatching that video I posted an hour ago,and I noticed Notch said that "Cobwebs" will have multiple different uses.
Edit @Above He said it was isometric and dealed with zombies, so possibly :biggrin.gif:

Get ready for nubs yelling that it comes out tomorrow. D:
Heh, perhaps that's best. It's actually unconfirmed as being neither in 1.8 nor not being 1.8. Apparently pending confirmation from Jens.

Retired StaffYep, just gonna keep it unconfirmed, to save face till I can see a crystal clear example of it, or Notch/Jeb clarifies it clearly.
