Honestly? I'd like to see some of the long-term "planned" things being added in (Red Overworld dragons and a Sky Realm, anyone?). 1.2 and 1.3 were awesome updates, but where's all the awesome stuff they said they were gonna add a while ago? I can't really complain about anything in these updates, and I'm sure Vechs is extremely happy (as a fledgling mapmaker, I kind of am too), but I'd still like to see them add some of the things that were planned a while ago.
- Audio Loops
- Capture the Flag online game type
- More Animals (Would love to see fish)
- A legitimate way to get sponges (and a use for them)
- Spike Blocks (meh.. lava or cactus works)
- Red Dragon
I did notice that the sky realm thing was removed from this list, to some disappointment, but overall, this list actually seems to be getting longer for the most part. These updates are great, but I'd like to see some of the above things in an update sometime soon. :|
(This is my rant, reposted from Unsquarable's forums page on this subject )
Well actually they are putting in the Capture the Flag mode in 1.4. Also they wanted to put the red dragon in minecraft but they said it would put to much stress on multiplayer servers (which is true)

Really nice, looking forward to 1.4 although the patch for 1.3 did say performance upgrades but when i used it, it only got worse I don't know what you guys are doing to mess up the performance, it's bad enough some computers can't even play this even though it's as basic as Pac-Man (Graphics Wise) Also for the new zombies would be awesome to have different armor variants like, leather, iron and stuff like that, just diamond is abit lame, kid zombie is a great addition!
P.S. you rushed 1.3.1 a little bit, also a great suggestion would be to stop having so many updates close to each other, we want a break so people can update their mods.

Any word on the Beacon's light beam not showing for some users? I've built numerous pyramids out in the open with nothing over them yet I never get the beam of light. I still get all of the effects that come from the pyramids, just no beam of light.

What type of computer are you using? 32-bit or 64-bit? I have 64-bit on my computer and can see the beam, whilst the other computer is 32-bit and can't see the beam!
How do you guys make decisions on what to implement in new patches? Is it based on what you think the majority of the players would want, or is it based on something else?
If 1.3.1 is any indication, It's a combination of:
-this guy made a mod and it's really cool, let's incorporate it into the game (ender chests, pistons)
-Vechs told us to, Hail Lord Vechs (NBT tags on spawners to modify them, poisoned silverfish spawning more silverfish)
-misc minor bugfixes, usually coupled with as many/more bug additions to keep things interesting

I don't really care about updates anymore. I'm playing 1.2.5 until the API comes out.
Everything Mojang adds will be out done 100x by modders after the API. Why don't we see some pre-releases of the API?
They said the API would be out in JANUARY! and they bother working on this childish garbage. The only thing they might want to work on besides the API is a time machine.
Btw I didnt notice it in the changelog but I see a new potion. NIGHT VISION O_O It looks really cool but idk how to make it I can post pics but you discover for your self

You must give them time man. I know they said it would be out a while ago. But this isn't childish garbage. Its work grown men work. They do that for our favorite game.

Retired StaffI have to say, I agree. I'd just run home.

Curse PremiumPrereleases are not Updates...
What the hell do you mean "rushed?" THIS IS THE LONGEST IT HAS TAKEN TO BRING OUT AN UPDATE EVER!!
If that is what it does, why isn't it working for me?
EDIT: I fixed it!
lol i'm pretty sure there are mods that do that though that would admittedly be kinda awesome in vanilla.
I'll bring him home and call him Zom-Steve.

It's 64-bit, so that can't be the reason.
Yes! And name him !
OMG, run to the hills >.<
