Armor has been changed radically: Now, the protectiveness of an item is determined by its material type instead of the durability, with Diamond armor giving all 10 units of armor, and lesser armors not providing as much. Armor protectiveness no longer degrades with durability, and just immediately drops off when the armor falls apart. Armor durability has also been improved slightly.

I was exploring The Nether, got bored and portaled out. Ended up over the ocean. Started flying in direction of increasing numbers, and happened upon this island. Mushroom Biome only occurs on isolated islands, which is probably to avoid the oddity of it being so localized around other biomes other than water. I uploaded that to the wiki, so if you want the seed and location, it's on the page here: http://www.minecraftwiki.net/wiki/File:MushroomBiome19pre.png

Turns out, Mooshrooms are Cow infected by Red Mushrooms. If you shear the red mushrooms off them, they become normal cows... Trapped on an island covered in infectious fungus, waiting for the day they once again become infected and become controlled by the evil mushrooms... Mushroom Biomes are islands, likely to explain why the spores don't spread to adjacent biomes. Perhaps they're fungus spawning grounds with no outside interruptions.

I am happy about what they are doing with mushrooms.

I was worried by the early pictures of them just spawning in the middle of forests and what not.
So what new surface terrain stuff is there in 1.9?

[MegaScientifical]

Mushroom Biomes shouldn't be so tall. I noticed there's cows swimming all around the edges of it because they fall off and can't climb back up. IT's sort of sad just seeing 50 Mooshrooms cowering at he base of the mountains in the water.

I don't like the look of the Villagers. I was hoping the villages would be occupied by Pigmen instead. :c

Pigmen all the way. They don't look like disabled dwarves.
