Minecraft Full Release

The full version of minecraft is set to release this upcoming friday. Everything that was going to be added in the 1.9 update is going to be in this non-beta release. The 1.9 prerelease 6 was just released the other day. This prerelease adds the final boss battle to the game (Yes there is a way to win minecraft).

Download the pre-release here: http://t.co/9W9uHRgD

If your curious what the final battle looks like, the yogscast made a video for it. It appears to be a very difficult battle. These guys took forever to beat it and they used creative mode. The battle takes place in the realm called "the end". You can reach it by exploring deep inside the hidden strongholds and activating the portal. The objective is to kill the dragon, however it has a huge amount of health and there are healing towers (and a ton of endermen trying to kill you).

Did you see the ending
Its just weird
Not the content of the ending, that was supposed to be weird
But i mean the fact that there is an ending at all

I know the game doesnt actually end there and after the credits you go back to the surface world and can continue
But why try to put in a story
I hope the final release only plays the credits part (without a story) when you beat the enderdragon and exit, but not in multiplayer


Also fences no longer make farmland able to be walked on. that was my favorite glitch
And lillypads are awesome

I hope notch is just trolling us and adding in the real credits for the final release and not that weird confusing text. I like the idea of the end. But it feels like he are trying to make it into a more complex game with the addition of potions and enchantments (a healing potion is fine just because they removed something like that with the food). I would rather like to see them add items that are used to build structures or new redstone items. Building things was the main reason why I (and many other people) started playing the game. I dont need enchantments to build something awesome.

Im pretty sure that isnt the real credits
The story part isnt real, the part where it lists the people that made the game is
But even with real stuff there might be some sort of story since they programmed in a way to display a text crawl
It might just be something that says Congratulations you beat The End, which is what im hoping for

I want the game for building too, but not all the time
Right now notch has been only adding stuff related to adventuring (hence the original name of Adventure Update)
Maybe they will start adding new blocks for building again in the future (like a Builders Update)

Theres a mod called Redpower if you want more redstone stuff: http://www.minecraftforum.net/topic/365357-181-173-eloraams-mods-rp2pr3-redpower-v171-integrated-redstone-now-redpower-logic-redstone-pipe/
Has pretty much every redstone item you could want, but its damn confusing unless you use TooManyItems to spawn in what you want
I think it works on SMP as well
Usually if i install that i also install Wireless redstone: http://www.minecraftforum.net/topic/328725-181wireless-redstone-v14/ just to make certain large redstone things smaller (instead of running a wire for 100s of blocks)
The only problem is that since neither of these mods will ever be added to the official game it makes you lazy at making redstone things without using it in SMP

I actually like the potions and think they could add alot more types, i like them more for multiplayer
Im not a fan of enchanting though, only because its completely random and with how hard the mobs are now getting exp isnt that easy
And the game forces you to do it if you want to legitimately get ice and other normally unobtainable blocks

It already sort of does that
Pistons, automated railroad tracks, and TNT is pretty advanced technology while you still use stone tools, and bows

But i know what you mean
Theres a couple mods that add newer technology like Industrialcraft, alot of servers use it: http://wiki.industrial-craft.net/index.php?title=Main_Page

In singleplayer theres a laser mod that i really like: http://www.minecraftforum.net/topic/515159-181-the-laser-mod-v11c-with-lenses/
You can use the lasers to make a bunch of useful stuff, i want to see it added to the game officially, but i doubt it will



Minecraft RC2 was released: http://assets.minecraft.net/rc2/minecraft.jar
RC stands for Release Candidate, it means that its the final version (with some bugs that they havent found)
Its RC2 already because the first one probably had a major bug
Normally RC2 is the very last version before the official release, if they go to RC3 then they screwed up something pretty bad

It's funny you posted the lazer mod because I edited what I had said into one sentence instead of posting lots of stuff lol.

One of the ideas for a mod I had wanted was lazers lol.
Flying ships would be cool too. Mainly because it is a sandbox game, and well, I feel that it should evolve since where the hell else can the game go lol.
E.I. right now you can go underwater, dig, and go to the nether. There should be Space/Flying (E.I. building a ship or something) - more crafting/building things.
It would be pretty cool if it was like a real world thing - I mean, I feel like that is what this game was designed to do

Playing the full release right now. The new sounds are weird to me. Creepers sound so much cooler with their flesh exploding sounds. But the doors and chests are squeaky and annoying. They even added a sounds for when the tools break. First time i heard this sound, it scared the shit out of me. I actually jumped a little just because i wasnt used to that sound playing when something broke.

Endermen are a lot less buggy now and will actually attack you if you put a cursor over them, unlike in 1.8.

You cant walk through lillypads, which i hate, but you can place them now.

NPCs are still the stupid wandering Monk Berts (you know, the character on sesame street) and will not attack you.

Also, it appears that all servers need to be upgraded.

The tool breaking sound scared me to when i first heard it, when i first heard it i looked up and all around while backing into a corner, took me a second to realize it was the tool breaking

I like not being able to walk through lillypads, it makes it so you can have lillypad bridges and an easier way to build something on the surface of the ocean, just put 1 lillypad on the water and start building up instead of going to the bottom of the ocean and putting 20-30 dirt down to reach the surface

I think NPCs was a bad idea, i liked it more when they were just abandoned villages, before NPCs were in
The NPCs should do something like trade the player for materials or sell potions

Oh, i didnt realize you could do that with lillypads. I never tried to step on the lillypads, i just noticed you couldnt walk through them, which annoyed me. That makes water building so much easier.

I started a new single player map last night using a seed i found online so that i could start near a village (because honestly I had never seen a village in-game before when i was using random map seeds). I found the village and found a nice house to stay in. I killed the two tenants with no problem. The NPCs are just annoying, I constantly hear them splashing around in the water in the middle of the village. Eventually i think im gonna kill them all off and make the village my own peaceful haven with no interruptions.

Edit: I ate for the first time with the sounds on. It sounds like a saw cutting wood and then a burp. Yet another sound that scared me. It scared me the second time too. I bet there are more sounds that I havent found yet that never played in the beta.

The seed giraffe spawns you in a big swamp haha

also has a npc village very close

the seed venom180 spawns you right next to two villages

prolly shoulda posted earlier..

70.100.224.183:25565 is mine.. Ive made like 5 worlds and abandoned them but ima start from new so anyone who wants to help can!

You need to make your server so non-premium members can join too lol

cant get on it for some reason oreo

Started mining a little farther on my new ssp map. Found a cool little cavern with a mix of lava lakes and mineshafts. Let me tell you, it is probably the most dangerous place ever. There is a poison spider spawner near the lava. I started boxing it in so i didnt have to deal with it. I boxed in all but the bottom. The bottom drops into a mix of water and lava. I knew i needed to block that hole off too. When i try to get into the water, a poison spider attacks me and pushes me into the lava. I end up losing all my tools and a shitload of stone i collected along with some lapis, coal, and all my tools. So pissed right now.

I also learned that redstone mines so much faster now. It took me a good 10 seconds to mine 4 blocks to get like 17 redstone.

Getting hit by an arrow or falling makes a new sound. An archer kills away 2 hearts with each shot. This scared me when i realized I had no sword on hand.

I got on his server fine venom, try again

i have tried forever. i even left it when it said connection to server for half an hour while i ate, i came back and it still said it was connecting to the server

I was on Oreo's server for less then 5 mins and everything went horribly wrong, i jumped to my death off the spawn area because i didnt realize how high up it was, blew up a signpost/lightpost because of a creeper, broke a window in backseats treehouse, and lost a music disc out through said broken window because the music player spit it out weird

Also glass panes no longer drop panes when you break them

Oh and i took this pic:

Oreo was afk and just standing there all creepy stalker like, especially with that skin

Oh, i can fix that signpost.

Im in creative mode so i can fix all that with no problem. If you come on when either oreo or I are on, we can give you creative mode.

srry for server not being on this morning I was at school..
It'll be on now!

Also Pat.. U have OP i did it this morning before I turned off server and also band has op

Pat was right.. IP changed..
I cant get static ip because of: Frontier Communications.

Stupid Frontier Communications...
See my post in the Internet thread to see how much they blow..

IP is now 173.87.232.72:25565

when is the server going to update?

He was talking about cd's server

And i dont know where seren has been, last time he was on the forum was almost a month ago and when i try to connect to that server it says invalid server key (even when im using 1.8.1)
But even if i could connect to that server i havent seen it when anyone was on
