Would be cool if we could also make wheat into beer. And craft bottles to hold liquids for consumption, liquids like water and beer.

Bottles:
o=glass

o X o
o X o
X o X

Beer makes the player walk a little slower...heals 9.5 hearts :wink.gif:

Can I report people for stupidity?

Anyway, I like that we will be able to get beef. That is an amazing idea because I always have a hard time finding pigs in SMP.
I am not so sure how I feel about stacking food. Unless they have an eating limiter, it will be way to easy to kill anything in this game, no matter how hard it is.
*Below is my rant about stacked meat being a bad idea.

I don't want to get yelled at, so I did read seven pages of this and figured all I was going to see was ignorant idiots saying the same thing over and over again, and Zak telling them that they were ignorant idiots.

12 pages of replies, and your only the 3rd guy with a brain to post.

I wholeheartedly that stacking the food is a bad idea and will ruin the combat that he says hes trying to fix.
obviously i cant imagine this has been added without the mojang team seeing how bad it will affect fighting.
As i said before, im hoping that food doesn't heal hearts anymore but instead there is a new 'healing item'. What do you think or hope is being done to keep it balanced?

What I hope is that your right about it only fixing hunger issues and no longer hearts. I also hope they still reduce the stack limit to something a like 8 or 16. Even if the food is just for hunger purposes, the stacking thought makes me get nauseous, because that means eating won't be that big of a deal as it will be too easy to go on long treks with several stacks of food and not worry about a thing.

I, once again, hope you're right about them adding a new way of healing, something a little more real, especially since you don't eat to fix two broken legs and a black eye, you take some medicine. Hopefully he will put medicine in over potions and elixirs; that stuff seems too Final Fantasy to be apart of Minecraft in all of it's glory. Perhaps that could be part of the crops overhaul he is working on.

I have other hopes for other parts of 1.8, but I think even this post is almost becoming irrelevant to the original post.

So what do you think about that?

I don't want to be called an idiot, so I will try to state my opinions and thoughts in a clear manner. I personally believe that raw meats will stack up to 4-16, and cooked ones will only stack to one. So, raw meat=easier storage, but cooked meat=more healing per piece. If I'm wrong, then, I'm wrong. I think that this would make people cook food only when needed.

I have read that consuming food will now take about 1.6 seconds, so it now becomes impossible to repeatedly heal. The food will also heal implicitly. New food system

Stacked food and Pork, Chicken and Beef would make alot more sense.

so pork might be able to get stacked from one into four pieces
quite interesting cuz there is gonna be more hostile mobs!

hope they can'tbe stacked to 64
cuz it would be so lame!


but im good with 1 - 10

Guys. Look closer at the picture. Theres something better than stacked food / food types on display.
He is not wearing any armour. Look where the armor bar use to be (opposite health hearts).
He has 9 bits of food in his inventory, and there are 9 meat symbols on the hud.

This indicates to me that there will likely be a hotkey to eat a piece of food without having it on your actionbar, because the 'food bar' would be an odd addition if it was not acompanied by a hotkey such as this.

i think you won't be able to stack meat to 64
i suppose 1 - 10 or less would be great!
and even if food will be able to stack remember that notch do it for some reasons cuz u know ENDERMEN/FARLANDERS!! or there might be new scary more powerful mobs Like the silver fish it might be a boss mob too! so that means the game is getting harder than ever!!

awww

@ghostmuffin

Do you even know what OP means?

The white meat looks more like chicken...
