Author Topic: Minecraft Megathread; yeah its update 1.12 big whoop what about it  (Read 6802979 times)

Animals shouldn't drop so much goddamn food
Biomes should be larger, large enough so I can't run for 5 seconds and reach the other side
Thirst and water bottles or something similar
Biomes should affect players conditions along with weather, eg: deserts make you thirstier or hungrier faster
Hostile water mobs, preferably ones that can destroy boats
fudsfsfhsf testificates the forgets
Dirt with grass on it should burn as well, but not destroy
More variety of weapons and fighting should be improved in general
Materials should be harder to get on harder gamemodes, like longer destroy time and less drops
Bone meal should only make wheat grow, and only 1 level higher

Just some stuff that I think should be improved or integrated into the game

1: I don't see how it's too much.
2: This isn't Earth. What if this planet logically has biomes like that?
3: That could definitely break a lot of maps, systems, etc. Having to keep track of 10 different bars for the most trivial things almost no other game deals with. Hunger is enough.
4: Giving a biome constant negatives is a very bad idea considering generation code changes. You might build in a nice plains and the next update, your house is in a desert and you're dying. It's bad enough when your home becomes a snow biome and everything freezes.
5: This would make traversing oceans impossible. You would loose all your boats mid-way and be lost unless you think you can go all the way down and up in time.
6: What about Villagers? Is there a problem?
7: If it is around lava, it can randomly start to burn. Then again, anything can. Regular fire doesn't spread across grass, it really shouldn't unless under extreme exposure. And then, not a lot.
8: "Improving" combat and adding weapons usually results in someone building a bunch of extreme weapons and killing everyone pretending to be a god.
9: No on the Longer Destroy Times. Why would it take longer? But yes on the drops.
10: Bone Meal is required to grow Giant Mushrooms. Considering how many people still haven't even seen a Mushroom Biome, making it impossible to create any of it's features at home seems like a bad idea. Especally if you factor in destructive sea creatures breaking your boat as you search for a Mushroom Biome.

Some points I care more about than others. Mainly the longer responses...

in real life, days are 24 hours long
in minecraft, days are 10 minuets long

i think eating food and then not getting hungry for another day makes sense

Minecraft days are 20 minutes long.

1: I don't see how it's too much. Other posts I made
2: This isn't Earth. What if this planet logically has biomes like that? Adressed that before
3: That could definitely break a lot of maps, systems, etc. Having to keep track of 10 different bars for the most trivial things almost no other game deals with. Hunger is enough. Thats a good point, but I honestly don't see how its hard to keep track of doing two things to stay alive.
4: Giving a biome constant negatives is a very bad idea considering generation code changes. You might build in a nice plains and the next update, your house is in a desert and you're dying. It's bad enough when your home becomes a snow biome and everything freezes. I think thats really the only problem I could see, if it was to be integrated, it would be in some major update.
5: This would make traversing oceans impossible. You would loose all your boats mid-way and be lost unless you think you can go all the way down and up in time. It's not like your boat would die instantly, the mob would be easy to see (something like a shark, idk) and wouldn't have a very strong attack. It would also be slower then your boat.
6: What about Villagers? Is there a problem?
7: If it is around lava, it can randomly start to burn. Then again, anything can. Regular fire doesn't spread across grass, it really shouldn't unless under extreme exposure. And then, not a lot. It shouldn't spread at such a rate as it does on wood, but it should still spread so its sort of a hazard. Or maybe just in certain biomes.
8: "Improving" combat and adding weapons usually results in someone building a bunch of extreme weapons and killing everyone pretending to be a god. Easier ways to do it.
9: No on the Longer Destroy Times. Why would it take longer? But yes on the drops. ok
10: Bone Meal is required to grow Giant Mushrooms. Considering how many people still haven't even seen a Mushroom Biome, making it impossible to create any of it's features at home seems like a bad idea. Especally if you factor in destructive sea creatures breaking your boat as you search for a Mushroom Biome. Why the hell would you need to grow Giant Mushrooms in the first place? They should be kept as rare things.

Thats the full cycle silly, 1 day is 10 minuets long.

I hate collecting Mushrooms the normal way - Having them spread. On SMP many months ago, I had a friend move into my underground home. He made a nice place, and I decided to place a Mushroom in the corner for fun. I came back later, it had spread and replaced a few essential blocks. I quickly destroyed them, replaced the blocks, and left. I came back later, more Mushrooms and blocks replaced. Turns out, one of the Mushrooms grew inside the wall completely blocked in and was spreading back outward. These things are like a virus, but then again they're Fungi after all...

I think beehives, honey, mead and drunkenness would be a good addition to the game.
>Find a beehive
>Harvest honey
>Try not to get stung
>Craftable still?
>Distill mead
>Drink mead
>Wavy screen, inhibited combat skills, inability to walk in a straight line (kinda like how WoW did it)
>Vomit your intoxication away?

The game is far too For Kids for any form of alcohol to be made default. Simple as that.

uh is it bad that I may be scared of caves in this game now

Superflat challenge, survive on a superflat world without cheating.

Also, you don't even have to add anything. You can get saplings from villager chests, and most of the time you can get wood from villager houses.

To win it, you must:

Create a set of iron tools. To find iron, get it from villages by chests, or killing golems.
Make a diamond block with diamonds from village chests.
Make a house.
Successfully make a map. <Impossible. Replaced with next line.
Make a stack of golden apples.
Construct a nether portal with obsidian from chests.
Get an enchanting table. To do this, get obsidian from chests and break bookcases in village libraries.
Enchant armor.
Get an animal farm going.
Make a cobblestone generator. To do this, get an iron bucket and find water in the village farms, and lava in the blacksmith
Produce food faster than you consume it.
Make a brewing stand.

I keep failing at this

Who's defined the game as a kids' game?
I mean I suppose right now it's relatively tame save some scary bits, but that doesn't make it a kids' game.
