More advanced crafting. For instance: Combining two things makes one thing, combining that with another thing makes something more advanced, combining that with something else makes something even more advanced.
A few examples:
4 Iron Ingots in a square = iron plate, 4 iron ingots in a cross with nothing in the middle = gear, gear + iron block = engine, 4 rubber (possible new material) in a cross with nothing in it = tire, as the final thing, iron plate surrounding an engine with two tires in the bottom right and bottom left = car.
3 iron ingots in a straight line = Iron rod, 3 wood planks in a right-triangle formation = wooden stock, Iron ingot + gunpowder = bullet, finally, wooden stock middle left, iron rod in middle and middle right, flint in top left = Gun, with bullets for ammo.
diamond + 3 iron ingot = drill bit, 3 drill bit + 3 iron plates + motor = Drill
This can be taken in many different directions, but it would make the game more progression based and even easier as you go along, perhaps this could be coupled with more powerful mobs to offset the power gained from new weapons.
Why is it that the newbies always post ideas that have been suggested before?

Because there too noob to read the rules.
Someone should put a nice big sign on the website that says "Hey faggot, read the rules."
And now I want a sign just like that.

Car maybe Guns that should be gone NOTCH WILL NEVER ADD GUNS but the idea is good
I wasn't aware you knew personally. How's he been doing lately? Since he obviously confides in you with all his plans and ideas, would you mind telling us all what will be in the next few updates? It would save us all a lot of time if you could just tell us what he is and isn't going to make now so we can stop with this silly suggestions forum that clearly has no purpose, as has already decided everything and will never change his mind or be persuaded by popular opinion![/sarcasm]
That said, I personally favor a lower level of technology overall. While the current version of Minecraft has some semi-advanced things, it mostly keeps things to their most basic. For example, the (IMHO, now obsolete) powered minecart does not use any special "engine block" it combines two existing items to serve the role of an engine. I think that it's reasonable to assume that any additions to the game continue in this minimalist style.

tssssssBOOM!
Maybe a minecart that pull carts behind it like a train would be a great idea.
I think this deserves a few diamonds
