Roablin Posted November 2, 2011 Share Posted November 2, 2011 Well, the squid can swim thing seems pretty cool.really? all that changed is that they point up now. not super impressive compared to the other changes.Oh. I thought it meant they could swim up. Which after I thought about it wouldn't be that good. So you mean that only the animation has changed?Well, it looks like most of this stuff I'd have to see in game. I've already seen the Dragon death animation, and while impressive, is something that won't effect me almost at all. The light changes sound great. If it is what I hope, then it is something that I really wanted. Once again, I haven't seen it yet though.And the rest is all bugfixes or things I don't really care about.Oh wait, one more thing. I will LOVE the changed fence hit boxes.Basically I remarked on the squid because that was the only thing I hadn't seen before. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cobui Posted November 2, 2011 Share Posted November 2, 2011 (edited) Sorry, but I'm a bit behind on this topic with regard to the servers, given the huge downtime, along with our laptop's sudden inability to play Minecraft. Could I have some sort of server guide?*looks back over topic to find that there is in fact no official server*Derp. Well, does anybody have some good server suggestions?

Cookieo Posted November 2, 2011 Share Posted November 2, 2011 (edited) Cobui, there's a server called Strallo. It's a very good server. It has magic spells, chess, BattleShip, towns, an economy, skills (Such as mining, swords, excavation, etc), runes, and a lot of other things. It isn't online 24/7, but it's usually online seven days a week.

Ehksidian Posted November 2, 2011 Share Posted November 2, 2011 Ok then, I really want to get minecraft, but I'm having trouble with what I should get. Should I get 1.0 when it comes out, or buy 1.9 pre 5? And if I do get Pre 5, will it automatically be upgraded to 1.0 when it gets released? I am just wondering... I honestly want to buy this game.

Roablin Posted November 3, 2011 Share Posted November 3, 2011 Buy it now. Minecraft automatically updates for free. Once 1.0 comes out the price will rise, and that's the only thing "full release means."So definitely buy it now.I might try out that Strallo server myself.

Ehksidian Posted November 3, 2011 Share Posted November 3, 2011 My parents just told me I can't buy it now -_-I can get it for my birhtday, but wh I ask will have to act quickly...In the mean time, I'll download Classic. Does it still have Survival? I doubt it has multiplayer... but it has Survival and isn't insanely glitchy, right? I'll download it today.

Roablin Posted November 3, 2011 Share Posted November 3, 2011 Classic doesn't have survival at all. It is just building, on a limited map with limited blocks. It does have multiplayer, though. It's not glitchy, but it is severely lacking. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Roablin Posted November 4, 2011 Share Posted November 4, 2011 If it's a matter of your parents letting you, tell them it's cheaper now. In 2 weeks the price will raise 25%. It will still be the same thing, too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ehksidian Posted November 4, 2011 Share Posted November 4, 2011 Well, they want to buy it for a birthday present, but they said they won't buy it. But they did say I could ask for it from other people. And that asking will be tommorow. So, hopefully they'll buy it before the price goes up. I really cannot wait, I really wont to play survival and see how long I last. Quote Steam name: Ehksidian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GCKrastin Posted November 5, 2011 Share Posted November 5, 2011 Yeah, if you want it 25% off then you need to buy it before...November 17th, I think. You have a couple weeks until it goes up.One thing that I find funny about Minecraft is that there's something like 3.5 million people who have bought it. Therefore, that's something like 3.5 million beta testers. The average game might have a couple thousand beta testers if it's really popular, but 3.5 MILLION? XDI need to update to 1.9 pre 5, it looks pretty darn cool. Quote Researchers in the U.K. have developed a vegetable called “super broccoli” designed to fight heart disease.

AARONTHEAWESOME Posted November 5, 2011 Share Posted November 5, 2011 (edited) Haven't gotten around to downloading prerelease 4. What's new in it? Dragons aren't ready yet, right?No. However, it's said they might be added soon, and as such someone did a video of a giant dragon that took two months to build. However, they did add "Snow Golems" created by stacking two snow blocks and placing a pumpkin on top (or jack-o-lantern, don't think it matters.) These leave a trail of snow wherever they go (which can be collected,) and throw snowballs at enemies, meaning you can use them to lure mobs into death traps.edit: Wait, the end? As in, you can win the game?no the end is the home world of enderman and enderdragon added in the latest prerelease the only way to spawn them(enderdragon) as far as i know is by blocking with a sword EDIT: ok i take that back the end is where u defeat the enderdragon and officially beat the game then there is a really long thing that is a must read but then after that and the credits you just respawn and continue playing and blocking w/ the sword to spawn the enderdragon is invalid now Edited November 24, 2011 by AARONTHEAWESOME Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Field Marshal Rakmon Posted November 6, 2011 Share Posted November 6, 2011 What servers do you guys play on? I generally use mc.supremserver.com, though unfortunately, the sever has been dying every few minutes recently, and I can't get on. So I've been going on a VERY popular Vanilla Anarchy Server, called 2b2t.net. They're both epic. Quote Signature Guidelines: Signature may not exceed the 800x300 limit.

Takuma Nuva Posted November 7, 2011 Share Posted November 7, 2011 I don't want to be the math nazi here, but 25% off =/= it will raise 25%.

Element Lord of Milk Posted November 11, 2011 Share Posted November 11, 2011 So i decided to make myself a two story wooden house in my village that i colonized(I've been living in a regular house for my entire stay there)and i found that making Wooden houses is incredibly costly and inefficient, especially if you want to use ANY regular wood blocks. i've used up half my bone meal already, i'm seriously considering just giving up and making it out of cobblestone, it would be easier, cheaper, and safer(Slightly less damage from explosions, if a fire breaks out it won't spread).Also I've made quite a bit of progress dirting up the town(Basically just replacing sand with dirt, i'm doing this cause it'll lok nicer after i get the grass)and i've almost got grass into the town(A project i've been working on since i first started upgrading the place).also on a mining expedition yesterday i got like 140 Iron, i was happy.I'm still stuck in that ocean in my creative world.~ELM~ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blendercat Toa of Coldplay Posted November 11, 2011 Author Share Posted November 11, 2011 So, I've been playing a map I found called Forever Alone. It's a lot like Skyblock; however, the land mass is much larger, there is a infinite water source readily available, and there is a cavern with ores and lava. I downloaded it about a month ago, and through medium to heavy playing; I now have two platforms 25 or more blocks away from spawn; one for monsters, and one for my house. I have a 9X9 two story cobble house, but I am currently expanding and converting to stone brick. I will continue to inform you on progress. I plan to expand to at least 20X45 Quote I figure I may as well do PBZPs now. But, I have a terrible work ethic,so they may take a while.
