Edit2: Yes, the model bug is fixed, but there is more problems jeb has to fix. This video just shows one of the issues, and it is STILL not properly fixed. Jeb only put in a TEMPORARY solution for the model glitching.
Edit: The release date is 12 september, and jeb plans to keep it that way! There is a big chance that he WILL release it then, but he won't if he hasn't managed to fix these bugs within then.
First of all, this video is posted by the permission of jeb, as a example of how buggy 1.8 is.
BEWARE OF MUSIC IN START
As you can see, pretty much every model is bugged, and they lagg the game very much. This is one of the reasons 1.8 is delayed. Jeb has been working on a fix all day, but still hasn't come up with a real fix for it. He has done a temporary fix for it atm, but it causes the game to crash every 5-10 minutes. He is trying his best to fix this now also.
Another bug is that smelting something in a furnace will make the game crash, and if on a server, make the WHOLE SERVER CRASH.
I will put up more info regarding this sooner. But please understand that 1.8 CAN NOT be released in it's current state. Please stop bothering jeb on his twitter, about the delayed release of 1.8 and such. You can all see the reason. Notch is working on something else, so jeb is alone in this project.
And yes, i am part a 1.8 beta tester.
And no, i will NOT leak more info about 1.8. No need to even ask.
Hope you'll all understand a bit more now.

Also, minecraft does no longer CRASH when using 64x64 packs and above. It still does not support the packs fully, so glitches are still there.
Bugs:
Here is another picture from 1.8.
This shows how bugged texture packs is. This is a 32x32 pack used, and almost the whole spider is bugged.
Strongholds do not generate properly, they just get a error and do not generate.
I still can't understand why only some people get to beta test 1.8. I thought that buying Minecraft Beta would allow me to beta test any version until the product is finished.

Cubes are good people. They don't lie, they don't steal.
Holy sweet baby jesus. Another human being who has come into contact with the elusive game that is Dark Cloud.
*mini high five*
I love the Dark Cloud series, I wish they'd release another one, :sad.gif:
On topic, yeah, it's pretty damn buggy. Poor, poor jeb, but at least we beta testers (beta testing a beta release) are here to stop massive public outrage, :biggrin.gif:
I've pinned this topic because it's not only informative and important, but it will also discourage people making such a large number of "Why is 1.8 not out?" and "Release it now!" threads.
Thank you for this.
Oh my god? Darn, now i actually have to put more in the thread, and make it even bigger! ^^
Will work more on the thread after i've had dinner. Thanks man =)

Would I like to play it now? Of course, but I don't want to play a buggy version.
If anyone even dares to post "OMG JEB IS SO LAZY" I will personally scream at their stupidity...
Now Jeb knows what it's like to be Notch! XD
I don't know why people would call him lazy, He's working his ass off and we should be grateful he hasn't stopped working by now.
there getting closer and closer to solving this 1 bug :tongue.gif:
I say in about 3 days we should be seeing this 1.8 update :biggrin.gif:
I love Dark Cloud! I'm glad I found someone else too, it was non existent among my friends. I played the sequel too...wasn't as good though...
Mojang is so incredibly dumb at times...
