Hey, I've just started playing 1.8 a few minutes ago and already I can see a few issues I have with it
I really like all the updates involving combat and all the new natural wonders, but ravines are just a little... too wonderful
I found one almost immediately after starting a new game just for 1.8 and I'm already loaded on coal, iron, and tons of other (once) rare blocks! and while this is pretty cool, I just think its far too rewarding for such little effort
I'm not even proud of all these blocks I have now
I was thinking that maybe if ravines were to only spawn in desert biomes then maybe that would mean I would have to go looking for it and that would make it a little more rewarding.
as for the iron... just make it spawn a little less? I've already got railways going in a game I've only just started.
And with food? well, I haven't any ideas about how to handle that... maybe you guys have some good solutions?
I understand what you're saying, but ravines in the desert make absolutely no sense at all. First of all, if this was real life, how could sand stay in wall form? Also, the lip over the ravine would fall if it was sand. How about just make it so ravines are abundant in coal, but using world generation, iron and other ores will not spawn for a small area around the ravine.
About the food thing, I agree it is a little too easy to get, but this game isn't about starvation. With the new food bar, we constantly need food- which if you think about it, in real life, we eat a lot more food than Steve does, so it makes sense for now. Thinking about making food a little harder to get, for some reason I came up with the stupidest idea ever- getting a pork chop and using shears on it makes a fat free pork chop :tongue.gif:

Oh, I hadn't really thought about that... Well that idea was just to make it less common, really.
and when I first heard about the food bar I was pretty excited because I thought finally it would be worth having an active farm, but now you get tons of food from all the non-hostile mobs so farming seems to be even MORE pointless now
That's my main complaint about it really.

If you are Amish and are 100% proud of it, put this in your signature.
