This thread is not about the ****-tacular void fog.
It's not about the completely ****ed over passive mob spawning.
It's not about the new lighting system, which some people seem to dislike with a sickening ferocity.
It's about the new blocks.
Stone bricks? ****IN FANTASTIC. Now you don't have to build castles out of cobblestone. In fact, any stone structure now has more variation than looking like it was hewn out of the ****ing earth like a giant sculpture (smooth stone) or looking like a ten year old glued rocks together (cobblestone). Stone bricks might be better than ye old clay bricks, which, by the way, are now MUCH more common.
Fence gates? AWW YEAAH. No more awkard entrances to that protected area around your house.
Glass panes? Holy ****. You mean you can turn six pieces of glass into SIXTEEN? And on top of that- you can break them and pick them up again? Not to mention they make jizz-tastic windows! And the windows have windowsills now. ****ING. SILLS.
Chests? They aren't new. But, now they look 20% cooler. I, for one, welcome our new animated chest overlords.
IRON BARS? OH LAWDY. TIME TO LOCK MO'****AS IN JAIL. And then build a SWEET-ASS DUNGEON around it!
MELONS? I think I'm bout to faint. I love melons so god damned much. Melons... melons make my life worth living. Round and beautiful... you just wanna grab em- wait. Round? We aren't talking about the same melons, then, are we? Uhm. Well. This is awkward.
THERE ARE NO BRAKES ON THE NEW BLOCKS TRAIN.
IF YOU DON'T LIKE HAVING MOAR BLOCKS, AND THUS MORE ROOM TO BE CREATIVE, IT MIGHT BE TIME TO GET YOUR HEAD EXAMINED.
I ain't no architect but I love the **** out of these blocks.
This is probably the one thing that most of us may be able to agree on. Maybe.

They really need to fix the mob spawning. Its really killing how difficult it is to find animals.
Not relevant but true.

Depends on the way you play.
I've been rather nomadic, hunting as I travel West. I eventually settled down in a plain that was overrun with sheep. Long story short, you actually have to HUNT now. Which, in my opinion, is an improvement.
Given the only animals you'll need to consistently hunt is pigs (because one grows out of leather armor), you could always make a hunting expedition out into the wilderness and return home with a stack of pork. On top of that, a chicken farm is a possibility because animals never despawn.
All of these things aren't so much of an issue because really, you only need to eat a single porkchop every 10-30 minutes to avoid starving to death, provided you don't sprint.
Once animal breeding is implemented, hunting expeditions will become obsolete. Until then you just have to change the way you play... or build a farm.
They did mess up with some new blocks though, You'd imagine that creating a new stair block would involve taking the old block and putting a new texture on it and not creating a new stair block that has lighting glitches.
It depends. That could be entirely unrelated to the block itself. Could be the new lighting engine.

Personally, I like everything about the 1.8 update. my only problem is that it's a massive pain trying to get flint, and if it's not flint, it's feathers, the latter of which is even harder to get because zombies don't drop them anymore. This is only a problem because I like the new Bow. The old one was **** IMO, but this one makes a charged arrow pretty much on par with a diamond sword strike.

I apologize as this is off-topic, but I've noticed a lot of complaints about this. I think people go looking for a certain animal, and ignore any others. If you are looking for a given animal, kill any other animal you see, because they no longer despawn and thus take up valuable space in the passive mob limit. For a while I couldn't find anything but sheep after killing a lot of chickens,cows, and pigs, but then I started to kill off the sheep and other animals eventually spawned again.

Melons are delicious.

"WAAAH WAAAH. Those new blocks are hard to craft. WAAAH WAAAH."
We should rename this board to the 1.8 Update Bitchfest. :tongue.gif: I must admit, it's amusing watching people complain.

It's true. Nobody seems to have anything nice to say about the update.
I'm all for the removal of the void fog though. In my opinion it's the only thing that spoils it.
The new lighting, the new combat and health systems, and above all, the new blocks... I love them all.

YES! The two greatest things about 1.8. The new blocks and this
