My idea was that, like in real life, there are eclipses that weaken/strengthens mobs, and/or changes the duration of the day. I would like feedback, because this seems like a good idea to me.

Another idea: Seasons
I dont really need to explain this, right?
Good.
Discuss both of these ideas.
You do need more detail. It's possible. I mean, how long does each season last? What changes of behavior in mobs or changes of blocks occur in each season? What are the visual changes? What are the physical changes?

I am meowing at my lung’s fullest. I would even argue that the echo that reverberates back to me is the voice of someone I know…

Seasons have been suggested countless times, but I like the idea of eclipses. Having some kind of supermob spawn during an eclipse would be cool.

A season might last, 10 minecraft days. There could be more deserts in the summer, in the fall, the leaves change,
in winter, there is more snow (obviously.), and in spring, the regular minecraft.

During an eclipse, mobs would be able to see farther/closer, be more agressive/non-aggressive,creepers wouldn't explode.
Well both of these ideas have been said before, and them being in the same thread is also against the rules. I'll edit with a link or two to like topics in a second.
For the actual idea: I've always like seasons, although temporary biome changes (like you said, more deserts) would be tough. But having the leaves change color and plants dying, as well as getting some temporary snow outside of snow biomes would be nice.

Thank you for elaborating, but what do you mean by more deserts? You mean, the chunks are deleted and changed to desert biomes? That's not possible.
In the fall the leaves should also be affected by gravity, eventually decaying on the ground. In the spring the leaves should come back and blossom. Flowers would also spawn. The summer should just melt all ice and snow blocks in all biomes.
Minecraft should start out at the start of summer.

Maybe the seasons could influence which crops grow at different speeds when we finally get new crops in 1.8?

Like melons growing in the summer and pumpkins in the fall? Love that idea. :biggrin.gif:
