I just looked at an Enderman with an Ender Pearl with me and it came at me bro

Edit: You have to be holding it

I dont think anyone should play the 1.8 beta.
They'll just get bored faster for actual release.
What are you talking about. The 1.8 beta is the same as the actual release + a few glitches. None of them are gamebreaking so why not play it?

uh yeah they are gamebreaking
You run out of memory every 5 minutes.

I haven't had any problems with the Pre-Release and I've been playing for about 2 hours.

Also when you hit Escape while you have things in the crafting table a visual duplication bug occurs.
nevermind it has to do with dropped items themselves

Get a better computer to allocate more ram to java. It's not the updates fault you run out of memory every 5 minutes, stop traveling so much.

The only game breaking bug I've heard of are saves becoming unload-able after using a furnace.

I have 4 GB of RAM and I was flying around in creative mode for like 10 minutes just seeing how nice the new land generation was.
The framerate didn't even drop.

Is it me or is iron more common?
I found like 30 in a small cave.

What do you press to fly?

What do you press to fly?
Press space twice in rapid succession.
