man, oh this XP balls for mining diamond, redstone, Lapis Luzuli, Coal & Emerald is gonna be AWSOME!!!
also XP from smelting is gonna be sick
what exites me is the tripwires, trap time!
mainly exitng how top level of enchanting is lowered to 30 instead of 50
its gonna be much easier to enchant with the xp bonuses added
the main 2 cons of the whole update is gonna be the multiplayer - singleplayer merging, and the emerald rareness (REALLY MOJANG, REALLY, 20X RARER THAN DIAMOND) *faceplam jeb*
Finally someone who doesn't complain about every single thing in a SNAPSHOT.
I'm very excited about the tripwires Pressure plates are nice but only work on one block while the tripwires will activate if crossed across the whole length of the wire. For example you can lay down a strip of tripwire along the wall of your house where your door is, connect it to a redstone clock which is connected to either redstone lamps or torches inside your house. Then, if a creeper is lurking along the wall, you'll see a flashing light Add some noteblocks too and you got an alarm!
The cauldrons seem nice too if they refill from rain. Granted, though making an infinite water source is easier, the cauldrons look nice. And anyways, in the room where I got my brewing stand there really isn't space to make 3x5 area to drop water sources in anyhow, but there is room to knock out a block in the roof so it rains into the cauldrons.
I also hope the jungle temples will be rare, else it won't be fun and exciting to find them. They looked really nice in the video at least and definitely going to be explored when I find one.
As for the emerald ore being more rare than diamonds, whether it's a good or bad thing, really depends on how needed they are for the trades. From what I saw in videos about trading the testificates would also accept regular items, not exclusively emeralds. I'm guessing emeralds are used for the more expensive trades, such as enchanted armor or items, or large quantities of items and not for just 3 pieces of chicken meat.
Anyhow, really looking forward to this update.
Only thing we need now is:
1) Wired blocks (combine redstone + any block = wired block that conducts redstone signal)
2) Horses
3) More sea creatures (both hostile and passive)
4) Day/night sensors (for turning on/off lights, activating moats and whatnot).
Y'know, I'm really hoping that they will deign to add Rubies and Sapphires, in addition to Emeralds, to the game. We already have multiple varieties of wood - which I'm very pleased about - so multiple varieties of gemstone would be a nice flourish.
They wouldn't even have to have different values in trading. Although that's certainly a possibility.
New thought: should there be Pigman villages in the Nether?

Mystcraft: the most fun I've had since I started playing Minecraft. Craft a Link to a new Age!
Redstone and sticky pistons shouldn't be able to be picked up. They should be invisible and unable to be picked up, because it would be way too early to get all those items.
I bought a minecraft gift card and it doesnt work. I've put it in many many times with lower case letters and upper case letters and it still doesnt work. is there a way to fix that with out buying a new gift card
im rly excited about 1.3. my only complaint is that theres not enough reason to go and find a desert pyrimaid or jungle ruins. What if there were special things in each of these like an enchanted weapon or some sort of exclusie material like silver (which could do double damage to the undead or somthing). Also with the jungle ruins, theres no point in having the traps if a player could bypass them with a wooden pickaxe, so what they could theroeticaly do is have a block with the same texture of cobblestone and mossy cobblestone but had the hardness of bedrock so the player couldnt avoid the traps by mining. all of these would be simple to code and in my opinion, worthwhile.
