Mooch24 August 23, 2014 at 4:08 PM UTC

Hate the new TNT and water feature. wrip cannons

I guess the new skins related stuff. Different arms and things could be cool.

Ogrey August 23, 2014 at 4:08 PM UTC

resepignev August 23, 2014 at 4:08 PM UTC

Diorite, Andesite, Granite and Prismarine Blocks

Yea, they are great! New building blocks for Maps.
I also want to see the red sand, but it's already added xD
And the sponge thing would be cool in a map.

QFrog August 23, 2014 at 4:08 PM UTC

I apparently missed the feature where fences and blocks come in all different types of wood, cool. I like the skin features as I can now put n a suit and take it off whenever.

cinammoncroc000 August 23, 2014 at 4:08 PM UTC

Idk, really. I heard there was improved performance, though, so that would be nice.

resepignev August 23, 2014 at 6:08 PM UTC

What's the new TNT feature?

primed TNT can be pushed by water. So TNT cannons doesn't work anymore :(

Emmaye August 23, 2014 at 9:08 PM UTC

QFrog August 23, 2014 at 9:08 PM UTC

Cannons aren't gone, they just need to be edited to use the new physics, soon there will be better working cannons.

MustardMan227 August 23, 2014 at 10:08 PM UTC

lulle265 August 24, 2014 at 2:08 AM UTC

SpicyTunaRoll9 August 26, 2014 at 4:08 AM UTC

kycrafft August 26, 2014 at 4:08 AM UTC

toketrain August 26, 2014 at 4:08 AM UTC

sometime after 1.8, when enough people are using it

resepignev August 26, 2014 at 4:08 AM UTC

It isn't listed in the chnage lists. So maybe not. I hope not.

mukmukfriend August 26, 2014 at 4:08 AM UTC

........

blockhitting takes no skill at all, just spam right and left click, sttafing takes much more skill and more people will do it in 1.8
