1.8 World changes

August 19, 2011 in MC update by Robert

Slowly but surely new information about the 1.8 update starts to leak in. The worlds themselves will be totally revamped. No more random water and land chunks but the new maps seem to be more like islands or continents. There will be rivers and deep oceans. Personally i think rivers will make traveling and coordinating your travels much simpler. All i can think of now though is… we need bigger boats…

Another Endermen picture, or are they Endermen?

August 4, 2011 in MC update by Jayty

Minecraft endermen farlander
Mojang realeased another picture of the Endermen earlier this week. Or did they? apparently there is talk of changing their name to Farlanders. Either way they still look pretty damn creepy! From what I can see in the picture it looks like rumors of wearing a pumpkin on your head to prevent them from seeing you is true but nothing has been confirmed by the mojang team.
Additionally I noticed that if you look really close the Endermen/Farlanders have some sort of texture to them. I have been imagining them being completely black with just those wide white eyes on display. Let us know what your thoughts are about the new mob and the proposed name change in the comments.

New mob coming in Mincraft 1.8

July 26, 2011 in MC update by Jayty

New 1.8 mob
Notch revealed this teaser picture today of a new mob that is coming in the 1.8 update. Apparently they are going to steal and place blocks around your world! I have to admit that these things look pretty damn scary and suggest that you all start building fortresses to keep these sneaky weird looking things out :D Roll on 1.8!
