1.8 Updates: Player Sprints & Pig Snouts

This brief video - uploaded by Jeb - shows the remarkable difference between a normal walking-speed jump, and a sprint-charged jump! The distance a player can jump is at least twice what it would be normally, which opens up a lot of navigation possibilities! Take a look!

Additionally, Notch uploaded a picture of the updated pig model - they now have snouts!

The pig snouts are a bit too short in proportion to their head. But I like it anyways.

and thus, every single one of the adventure maps made before the 1.8 update were officially broken XD - how many jump puzzles could this break? XD (not that I'm complaining, it makes it more dynamic for adventure maps, to say the least lol).

PIG SNOUTS SUCK! Seriously, it's like noch is trying to eliminate minecraft memes. He got rid of punching sheep, and now he's trying to delete the derpiness of the pigs. WTF Notch.

Only autists give a damn about memes, really. If you care that much, stop playing Minecraft and stay on Reddit.

I love the sprinting feature. I think I will have to get used to the Pig snouts, not a big deal though. Also, I will miss my non-opening chests xP

They're not weird noises if you have a Mac and/or Tweetdeck.

I've read it mentioned 2 other times, I thought it would be some kind of insect or something going on in the room with him or something.

Well there we go, if you followed the development when they were talking about the office, they did say they work mostly on Mac's.

for everyone saying the pigs look worse it because of:

1: you are used to minecraft pigs how that always have been since alpha.

2) you haven't seen a real pig in forever.
