Minecraft Snapshot 12w34a

[Sir_Grox]

As with most Thursdays, a new Minecraft snapshot was released today! This snapshot added Item Frames, the ability to dye your leather armor, and most importantly, a new (work in progress) unique boss mob! For a full changelog, follow this link. http://www.minecraftwiki.net/wiki/Version_history/Development_versions#12w34a

What is your opinion on this new snapshot, and what do you think will be added next snapshot?

[milcondoin]

I like the ItemFrame idea and the cobble walls. The rest is uninteresting in my opinion.

[DanielJin]

Invisibility potion sounds good, I would love to chase people around as a floating pumpkin.

[Torezu]

I like the idea of new food crops. Wheat and melons were getting a bit old. It would be nice if the hunger system were a bit more advanced, but...that's just me, I guess.

Also, night vision potions = caving without torches! Woo! Wait...night vision & invisibility...hmmmm...

[charcharmunro]

I can't tell if the Wither is horrifying or awesome. The fact that it seems to be able to target 3 different things does not help.

[Macinator900]

Invisibility potion + creeper = *evil laugh*

I'm also loving the dyed leather armor. Not only can you organize teams, but you can personalize your leather gear too!

[cmwatford]

I like the item frames and the ability of mobs to go through portals. Maybe the ghasts will finally chase me home like I know they want to do.

Loving the, Zombies and Skeleton pick up stuff will be extremely good for my map creations, some dispensors with diamond armour and shoot at zombies and skeletons (Mwhahahahaah) ^.^

[DanielJin]

How aboout villagers been infected by zombies? Zombie survial maps just got more scary.

Also, Baby zombies!

[charcharmunro]

...Damn. That is cute.

Cheers i just wanna go against the boss, sounds awesome.

I'm looking forward to when IC2 gets a hold of this update. (probably a while after 1.4 release). The two new crops will make cross feeding a little bit more interesting.

My only worry is Vechs + Invisible creepers.

[charcharmunro]

I think Vechs might step up his game to invisible Withers.

[NightKev]

There's no doubt that Super Hostile 15 will be all but literally impossible. Not that this is bad, it's more fun this way. :P

[Jiggins]

Someone's got to tell Vechs about Tekkit, I could only imagine how frustratingly difficult that would be.

Also now that mobs can hold items and possibly use them, that gives mr. Balkon a good opportunity to make PvE a lot more difficult. Imagine Skeletons with muskets and zombies with knives and axes.

[charcharmunro]

Well, I think it's been seen that Skeletons holding anything that's not a bow will still fire arrows at your from nowhere.

Well it's only a snapshot, but knowing Mojang, they may not develop it any further. I still think it's an amusing concept.

[The_DarthMoogle]

All I can say is thank god they are releasing an update with some decent stuff in it for once.

I wouldn't have said the vanilla game really changed since 1.1

[Munaus]

Maybe this update could make me start playing MC again, and use this "Technic Launcher" you guys keep talking so highly of...

[The Merchant of Menace]

Let's leave that to the thread it's in.

And musket skeletons would be horrifying. A musket can 1 shot you.

[Jiggins]

Just a question, if you enchant a bow with let’s say Power 10 and fire aspect (using NEI’s enchanting) and give it to a skeleton, will it have the enchant effects?

Yes it will, same for giving it enchanted armor and the fun thing is that map makers can use mcedit filters to make custom mob spawners. That spawn mobs with custom gear setups and they can even configure if the mobs can drop the gear or not when killed.
