Ok, so, the other one is dead basically, so I thought I would make a new one.

Minecraft is a building game. It is kind of like virtual legos. You can build whatever you want. There are two modes. Survival and creative. In survival mode you have to fend for your life against monsters and mine and craft your own resources. On the other hand, in creative mode you have access to everything and invincibility.For more information click on this text!

Minecraft Multiplayer! This mode is what I think, the most fun part of minecraft! In it, you can play different forms of the game, with your mates! Here are some servers I know of:


[User Posted Image]

MINEPLEX: In case you didn't know, I am a HUGE Mineplex fanboy. They have the largest server in the world, with lots of fun minigames! Coming soon, they will have a new faction like game, called "Clans". I am super hyped for this, and if you want to come play with me, just msg me!

[User Posted Image]

HYPIXEL: Ehh, I used to play on this one. But, after I became such a mineplex fan boy, I kinda abandoned it. In it, you can play lots of fun minigames, and a lot have custom texture packs! (Which lag me so hard >.<)

[User Posted Image]

KENTUCKY KRAFT Might as well give this server a shoutout, as it was the one to help me start liking minecraft.

Now you might be asking, well Will, how do I play on these servers? Well, they require a server adress, or an ip. To find the ip, just simply google it. For example, Mineplex's ip is: us.mineplex.com, or eu.mineplex.com, for European players. If you would like to do a server meetup, just msg me. smilie

Arriving soon, is the new version for Minecraft PC! Minecraft 1.9, or the combat update! Here is all of the information of what will be added.


General

Animations/Entity models

Might include model changes within the NBT data.
Would be implemented via resource packs.

Will make better use of code so that map/mod makers can create better/new mobs.
Same as the block data changes in 1.8.


Captions/Subtitles

Subtitles which display for each sound for the hard of hearing/deaf.
An example would be “Creeper hissing”.
Would have < or > to point in the direction this sound is coming from.


Status effect UI

Displays status effect icons ordered by time left
Positive effects are on the top row, negative effects on the bottom row
Effects that are about to run out blink
Gameplay

Dominant hand option

An option for players to change their dominant hand on their player model

Dual wielding

Only the main hand can be used for attacking
Bows can be used even when something is in the other hand
The other hand is invisible in first person view when not holding something
Key to swap items between hands, default: F
If the item in the main hand doesn't have a right-click action, the other item will be used; Workaround for placing blocks while holding tools with right-click action
For example, if you have a pickaxe in your main hand and a torch in your other hand, right click places the torch.

The off-hand slot is displayed next to the hotbar, possibly on the off-hand side
Some attributes and enchantments will apply to the off-hand item, while others will not.

Levitation status effect

Recieved when player is hit by shulker projectile
Makes player float into the air
Blocks

New block type.
Grass Path
A 15/16 block tall grass-like “path”. It features a somewhat similar texture to the grass block.

Chorus plants

Tree/cactus-like arrangements of new purple block
Drop when supporting block is destroyed, like cacti
Drop edible chorus fruit items
Can be farmed by planting the chorus fruit flowers on top of the plants
Flowers don't drop when the supporting block is destroyed so you need to hand-pick them

New purple blocks

Derived from the chorus plant
A brick block with slabs and stairs and a chiseled brick block.

End stone bricks

Slabs and Stairs

White glowing pole blocks

Placable horizonally and vertically which produce white particles
Items

Chorus fruit

Obtained from chorus plants

Arrow

4 new arrow types.
The gold colored arrow is the spectral arrow,
Shows mob and player outlines in their team color when hit - even when invisible

NBT tag for entities to disable outlines
The glowing is a status effect - you can find out whether you're glowing from a spectral arrow using the status effect HUD
Green arrow is the poison arrow
Grey arrow is the invisibility arrow
Arrows can be tipped with potions which will be applied on hit
Each differently tipped arrow is available in the creative menu, just like enchanted books
Effect is applied on hit


Shields

Will be used for blocking instead of a sword.
Can be used to attack and defend at the same time.
Can use two shields at the same time
Shields can have customizable patterns, like banners
Used to block attacks from the side the shield is held on
World generation

End city dungeon

A new type of dungeon with new blocks and the shulker mob.

Generated structures

Added support to rotate and mirror structures.

End gateway portal

In order to access the portal, you must throw an enderpearl.
Used to access other islands after defeating the Ender dragon the first time.
Mobs

Shulker

Short for "Shell Lurker" (or shulk.. I'm really feeling it!)
It can hide in it's shell, making it appear as a block.
Appears in the End city dungeons
Opens up and shoots projectiles which only move along the x/y/z axis
Using commands, they can be made to be part of a team to attack other teams and can be used as defense mobs
Launch projectiles, which run across the X, Y, or Z axis, though they can change axis.
Projectiles can be knocked away by attacking them.
Getting hit by one causes damage and provides a levitation status effect which makes players travel upwards

Planned changes
General

Shaders

Switch away from using fixed-function OpenGL to using Shaders.
Removed/moved the Super Secret Settings and Broadcast Settings

Block models

Models can be put together based on BlockState attributes - As a result, the vanilla set of block models was reduced by almost 300 models
Gameplay

Bosses

Proper support for multiple bosses’ health bars, so they show at the same time without obstructing each other.

Clouds

New cloud rendering system.

Death messages

Death messages will now be displayed on the player's death screen as well as in the chat.

Inventory

Rearranged the survival inventory and the creative "survival tab" to accommodate the new shield slot.

Status effects

Now shows in the top right of the screen
Good effects on the top, bad effects on the bottom, left-most effects expire sooner
Effects that are about to run out will blink

Commands

/clone

Allows for mirroring/rotating structures
Blocks

Armor stands

Can now dual wield

Command blocks

Will have a new UI
Will contain tab to complete.


Ender crystals

A version of the ender crystal can be crafted which spawns another dragon when placed
Items

Bows

The bow in your hotbar now shows an arrow when being drawn.
Arrows in the off hand are prioritized over arrows in the rest of the inventory slots

Ender pearls

Can now be thrown in creative mode

Maps

Now display as a mini map when held in either hand, rather than being held with both hands.

Swords

Can no longer be used for blocking.
World generation

End island

A set amount of differently-sized pillars are arranged in a circular fashion
The tallest pillars have iron bars around their ender crystal
The exit portal is pre-generated, but without the dragon egg and portal blocks
Infinite number of islands in the end
Mobs

Ender dragon

Revamped boss fight inspired by the Console Edition.
The dragon can be respawned as often as you want by placing player-made craftable ender crystals
The dragon breathes fire/purple particles on players and mobs
The dragon will defend the obsidian pillars more the further the fight progresses
Every dragon drops dragon breath, but only one dragon egg can be obtained

Hostile mobs

Will now have animations to show that they are attacking.
Can dual wield.


Skeletons

Will have animated arms and bows.
Act a bit more like the player.
Arms are normally down, but they will bring them up to aim when aggravated.
They now have the same drawing animation as the player, indicating when they are going to attack and with how much force.


More different textures for mobs

FEATURES MENTIONED IN AN INTERVIEW WITH DINNERBONE:


Sounds for when you blocked an attack
Positional damage blocking with shields is not implemented yet
Potion arrows balancing will be done after snapshots start
Player-spawned dragons don't drop as much XP as the first one
The end gateway appears after killing the dragon
Ender pearls throwable in creative mode might not be kept
The additional end islands are arranged in a circular fashion around the main end island, like a donut (with quite some distance), after using the end gateway you end up in the direction you aimed at
Chorus plants grow in stages and can be planted in any dimension as long as it's on endstone
Snapshot unlikely to be released within 2 weeks
Mapmakers can make skeletons shoot potion arrows

I am hyped for 1.9!

EDIT: It mentioned in the shields section that it will be customisable like banners. What do they mean by banners?
