  • NPC villages
  • Randomly generated dungeons
  • New biome code
  • Fully working Creative Mode (and individual admins can enter Creative Mode on a Survival Mode server if they choose)
  • Critical hits
  • Sprinting
  • More farming options
  • Skill Points
  • New Mob "Enders"
  • No building
  • Bosses, Summable Bosses (The admit to taking that idea from Terraria)

 

I hope they add special mobs, or titled mobs. Like "Giant Creeper" and it would be giant, or Flaming Zombie and it would be on fire. He still needs to add Dragons and Sharks which is said he would add (In general not in Adventure Mode). Hopefully it gets released soon, cause if he releases the launch date prepare for bugs (I know he stated hes gonna make it live some time after PAX)

Looking good :) Getting excited

 

Will the dyn map work for the new 1.8 map?

I dont know about Dyna Map, but everytime Notch updates the game it takes 3 weeks at the msot for mods and plugins and addons to actually become functional again. I dislike the people who say "WHY DOESNT NOTCH UPDATE BLAH BLAH BLAH" because they only play Vanilla. Im not saying Vanilla/CLean Minecraft isnt fun, but if I wanna play with friends or with a community I like, it's annoying

I doubt anyone will wait long for Craft to update to 1.8. Dynmap is very well supported (minus the IIS web-to-game chat...) so that will probably be soon after as well.

 

After that it'll be a crap shoot depending on how well the plugin is supported and how many of the authors are back in school.

(I know he stated hes gonna make it live some time after PAX)

Is there a tentative date when the 1.8 update will be released? Any idea at all?

Word I got from google is he said he would release it before august is up. So...soon I hope.

 

Since PAX is done it should be out in between now to one week or so. He stated on his twitter that it'd be out after PAX, then either at PAX or before PAX he stated he's done with it, and is now bug searching

I'll be in the corner with a pickaxe and a shovel trying to mine a tunnel into my closet while I wait.

 

Just so you know Notch is the only one working on Minecraft, since 1.6.0 build, so the only real information would be on his Tumblr and Twitter accounts. Minecraft Forums maybe official but the only time Ive seen Notch post in any of those things is when someone post fallacies, other than that he just read them. So far I havent seen anything on his Tumblr and Twitter accounts.

The very first link notch was the one who posted it on twitter. Most of the time minecraftforum.net just re-post anything relevant notch said on his twitter or they heard from other means. It may not be 100% perfect all the time but its better than searching through all the tweets to find any good information.

Yea Notch says some pretty useless things in his tweets a lot.
