There is a possibility of skin abilities, althrough these would not be about PVP or something like that since that would make the game a bit unfair and easy,with skin extras i meant something like character hitbox can go through 1 and a half block with the skins like like a dwarf,pig or even a spider, or another good example: with the enderman skin u can teleport 20 blocks away every 2-5 mins, they wouldnt give us ONLY stuff in the good way, every skin would have a disadvantage either.
why would it make op lol, ok swim in lava is a bit bad but drain hp is not a bad idea, imagine it like a magic that u cast every 5 mins, u can hit 5 times draining life about a half heart per hit, these hits can only be used within 25 secs, but as i said before there has to be a disadvantage if you can drain life as vampire, you cannot regenerate hp while in sunlight.
guess what dude, why would 4J show the vampire etc if theres nothing changed, there may be some other changes outside animations.
The changes are stated to be be skin and animation changes. What you are suggesting here is more than that. See, when you make a game all of that stuff isn't just tied together like you assume it is. You start by creating an object. This has no form or image, its just a file that defines the parameters for the object. You then set things like how far along the vectors this object moves when a button is pressed, or what models and animations are loaded to it. The object, in this case, is "steve". This object has a specific model, or frame, assigned to it. When a skin is selected, it is pasted over that frame. Stuff like hp drain would be programming tied into object interaction, not skins. For them to make a "skin" do what you say they might, each skin would have to generate a new object with its own parameters. Or, rather, the act of selecting a skin would destroy the steve object you were playing with and create a new instance of the "hp drain steve" you're dreaming about. That object would then have the vampire skin pasted over it.
Now, the issue with this is that plenty of people are already insanely familiar with the way minecraft is currently programmed. While they certainly COULD do what you think they are...they have already said they aren't going to deviate from PCMC until after 1.2.5. Adding new objects with new valules to them is a pretty big deviation. As in, its an entirely different game. Not a bad game, perhaps. Not even a bad ideal. But it is absolutely something they have already stated they will not be doing until they reach 1.2.5 and begin considering what ways to make MC360 its own unique animal.
In short, when a person making games tells you they are changing skins and animations, they literally mean just that. A skin is just, basically, a pretty picture that gets painted over the model. Animations are just rules that govern how the model moves when input is received. The changes you are talking about are neither of those. They are changes to the object, or its collision rules. There is a clear distinction there, and its one I'm sure would have been included in the release of information from a group of folks that make games all the time.
Guys... They said skin ANIMATIONS. Not skin abilities. Like I said in my previous post, animations have no affect what so ever of speed,strength, special abilities, etc. I do not understand why you guys assume this.

Religion, has actually convinced people, that there's an invisible man, living in the sky, who watches everything you do every minute of the day, and the invisible man has a special list. Of 10 things he doesn't want you to do. And if you do ANY of these ten things he has a special place, full of fire, and smoke, and burning, and torture, and will send you there to suffer and choke and scream for all of eternity... But he still loves you.
*Facepalm* They are changing animations. The lava walking was creative mode. Once again we have a thread spreading assumptions and rumours around. I really wish 4J would make it clear what they are doing when they make videos like that one, as to stop things like this from happening. It's kind of like the Herobrine gag, it wasn't funny on the PC and it's not funny now. Seriously 4J and people making stuff up stop, just stop.

i removed that *facepalm* and what rumors lol? i didnt talk about herobr*** guy, people understood the topic wrong thats why i edited the topic.
I think the Herobrine skin will have zombie arms too. Look at this picture.
I tried brightening it as much as I could.
Doesn't it look like his arms are stretched out?
Here is the original screenshot I took.

Go back and re-read what I wrote. I never said you mentioned Herobrine did I? I said that things like 4J leaving out details in their videos or putting "we think we removed Herobrine" should stop, because they lead to threads like this. The rumours I'm talking about are the skin abilities you said maybe in the next patch? Do you have solid proof of this? No you don't. It's an assumption you made from watching the video. So next time maybe just hold off on the assumptions when you post because as you just experienced with my post sometimes people don't read the post quite the way you intended, and that's how rumours start...that and trolls. Trolls start rumours to, your not a troll though I suspect you just didn't think about it that way.

i did not say there will be skin abilities, rumours ah comeon? skin animations will come this isnt a rumour, but yes skin abilities is, somebody just came and said skin abilities and that somebody wasnt me.Look just read the topic guys not posts, theres a lot of ppl that posts pointless.
Dude you heavily edited your first post (for the better) I'm not an idiot I viewed this long before I posted and saw the original post. Also if you read everyones post you can piece together hat was said by who before the edit. It doesn't matter though I'm glad you edited your first post.
Imagine how stupid it would look if you are mining while you are a wolf or pig. So if you are standing on 4 feet, would you be only 1 block tall? If so, it pretty much ruins some skins. I think they should stay the same, or having an option to turn skin animations on/off would be nice.

Dude, Herobrine is most likely fake yes, but its fun for the community and 4j playing along to me is just awsome, and if anyone here was dumb enough to get "skin abilities" from the OP then let them be uninformed idiots.
P.S. I didn't fully understand skin animations till this post so thank you.

lol, warlock, i was actually more thinking about skyrim instead of wow.
It was probably in creative so they didn't take damage/die
HOUSESL4UGHT3RHOU53GANGBoth the enderman and vampire affect the pvp.
guess what dude, why would 4J show the vampire etc if theres nothing changed, there may be some other changes outside animations.
