I used the new snapsot and found some AWSOME mountains. The biome was called "mountains" or something. There were giant overhangs and it had that old school feel. 1.3 might prove to be a step in the right direction.

I am a relative newcomer to the Minecraft scene, I had the bad luck of joining when the game was in 1.8.1. I have been playing a lot, and honestly, I'm bored. The terrain generation can create some interesting things, but it's 5 seconds of "Hmm, that's interesting", and then it's back to the same old plains and swamps. I completely agree with your cause, and I hope that we at least get noticed and acknowledged.
Get better terrain generation! I spawned in a world, found an interesting mountain biome, got a new world, entered it, explored, AND FOUND THE EXACT SAME MOUNTAINS! It was the same down to the block! I have had it with this terrain! It's so annoying!
God why didn't you post this sooner, before 1.8 i played minecraft alot more then now but i didn't know why, i read this and i had an epiphany. Please notch, jeb, the janitor whom adds secret updates when nobody is looking. PLEASE FIX THIS
This is what Mojang should do. Where you choose the type of world you want, there are 4 options:
1. Default
2. Large Biomes
3. Super Flat
4. OLD TERRAIN
No, stop suggesting this. We don't want the old generator back. Period.
AND hello people. I made a thread regarding the deletion of the X-hills biomes (forest hills, etc) and the Extreme Hills biome. It's pretty related to this topic because if we had universal height variation just as the OP suggests, these biomes would be useless. So basically, if you support Shreaders with this issue, you support THIS THREAD.
The Far Lands Or Bust episode 169 has some very nice looking terrain across both bodies of water where Kurt starts the video. The land is very nice looking in terms of height variation, without ridiculous random hills all about.
He goes on by boat to see some very nice looking terrain beyond that. The land quickly rises from the water to create almost fjord-looking uprises. This series is like a wonderful window into the past, where you would want to go explore to see the amazing and always unique landscapes wherever you went.
You should probably change the title. I thought you meant they did nothing. But actually you mean you don't like the terrain generation. It's very misleading, but I do agree, I love navigating through the never-ending mountains where it's always exciting to turn around the corner, or come out from underneath that 200 block overhang.

The title isn't misleading you just have to be able to comprehend it. Sorry no offence, but you might have missed the title already being changed 3 times and I think 3 is enough. If you don't like the title, sorry that's life deal with it. If it angers you I apologize for any inconvenience you may have suffered but really it's not that big of a deal lol. There's more important stuff in the world to worry about. Sorry for sounding like a jerk but it's getting ridiculous to say the least.
I find it ridiculous that an update hasn't been made to solve this problem. Something even more ridiculous is that it's been almost 9 months since this whole movement started and we haven't gotten a single tweet back.

Ok, first, you were being a jerk for me sharing my opinion, and I'm not angered or... suffering? O_o Anyways, the title is misleading. It says terrain seeds are useless, when they aren't and you can't say otherwise, it's the game, and you can't change it. They allow people to share worlds, so they're not terribly useful, but they're not useless. I know I seem like a jerk now, but these are the facts. But seriously... suffering? I can't believe you were so stupid as to say I was suffering xD

The title isn't misleading he's basicly saying that because of the terrain being so dull that theres hardly any unieqe seeds like how Gargamel, Cat(XBox 360 version), and 404 was

There's literally billions of seeds out there, and there's only 3 good ones? Yeah, right. Every seed has those epic mountains somewhere. Each world is about 23,000,000x23,000,000 if I recall correctly, so it would be extremely rare to have one that's "useless".

I was giving examples of seeds from pre-beta 1.8 and compairing them to beta 1.8 +, those seeds no longer exist(well atleast the way they used to be ), I only know a few good seeds in the current versions Pre-Beta 1.8 had more unique seeds than beta 1.8+
Which is exactly what this thread is getting at. Every seed produces terrain that looks really, really similar to the terrain of other seeds. There aren't any that produce any landforms unique to that seed, like the crazy canyons, overhangs, and sheer cliffs we used to get pre-1.8.

Good point, you can't change how seed generation works, this thread is a waste of time, and Jeb for sure will not see it. And actually, I still find a lot of those features all the time. It's possible, but not as common. You just need to keep looking!

They exist, I see them when I go exploring in Creative. Two words: Keep looking.
