Minecraft

Wow, Max's castle looks way better with that Zelda skin.
To be perfectly honest it doesn't look very good with the default skin.

Like I've been saying alot in the stream I'm going to get Minecraft! I know how to get onto the server and I've played it before at my friends house I was just wondering if any 1 would like to build something big on the server? You know how some people make like a giant Mario on servers I was think something along the side of that. Any 1 up to it????

Well, I've built a couple skyscrapers, and we're working on an arena in the sky right now.

Oh I can help this weekend hopefully.

I wish I knew why I lagged so much on the server. I'd love to help out.

tried turning the worse quality on?

Yes, but it's the actual connection. My framerate is beautiful. I think my internet just sucks.

I never saw you guys posting it so...

"And when you look away, it'll start attacking you."
*Enderman teleports*
"And they teleport."

Anyway, looks amazing. However, I hope in the update after this one, it'll be focused more on mining.
I think there should be an ore that compliments Lapis Lazuli.

Endermen look cool. What I want to know is HOW rare a spawn they will be, though.

Also, I like the new explosion animation. I'll probably be using creative mode more than survival though, since I just like to build.

That looks awesome. I can't wait.

the new bow&arrow looks slow

It's more realistic though. And it'll feel more like actual archery and less like a semi automatic harpoon gun that you don't have to reload.

There are a couple new screenshots up. http://imgur.com/gpiiP?full This one is of some vine like things on trees. http://imgur.com/8KbSs?full This one's of an open chest in the middle of a desert.

I'd count them in a way as another creeper.

The only way you're gonna get blasted is if you're unlucky or/and go out in the night blindly and naked.

Think about it. Exactly have the cursor on it, you have to take off the cursor, you'll know he is coming if you see him...

The only thing that is different from a creeper "annoyingness" is its rate of spawn.

You forgot the screenshot Notch posted between those two. http://i.imgur.com/jYWW1.png

Did you see what was added? Look at the pigs' snouts.

Also, about the chest screenshot, Notch said that there's two new things in there. I have no clue what the second one is, but I did notice that the sand blocks to the left of the chest look like they don't fit in. That could just be me looking at it wrong though. What do you guys think?

Also:

Unrelated, but I remember hearing that if you're wearing a pumpkin on your head, Endermen don't go aggro if you look at them.

I heard that too, but who is gonna obscure their vision all the time for the off chance they run into this rare enemy?

I'd just edit the texture for when you wear it so it's transparent.

I play to win.

no helmet though.

Small price to pay for not accidentally getting murdered by an enderman 50 miles back.

Me.
Pumpkins are amazing.

Ah! I did not see that the snouts were different. I thought he just felt like posting a picture of some pigs. You could be right about the sand block to the left of the chest. Sand gravel? Also, it looks like the sun is actually shining on the ground, changing the color of the blocks.

Endermen don't look that scary to me.

Maybe it's quicksand. That would be amazing.

I am pumped for abandoned Mine shafts, and Blue spiders.

The chest counts as one new thing?
Besides maybe there's arange for the enderman thing and you cna only be killed if you have low health, like the creepers... nothing new... You can push them too. Water too.
