...and while Jeb adds yet more contents for caves, the ocean biomes still remains empty and boring...
Why don't you downgrade back to Alpha?
Seriously, though, this is the "Pretty Scary" update. I would expect ocean content to be a major focus of a future update, 1.5 or 1.6 perhaps. It feels like the best updates are those that are specifically focused on a theme.
Ocean Update, including such magical features as sponges, corals, fish, sharks, and less-derped squids.

Because pokemon totally invented bats using echo location amirite?
No, because attacking with their echo location is something that Zubat is known for. It annoyed/annoys anybody who plays the first 4 generations of the game. Hell, omnipresent cave bats that attack with sound is kind of a hallmark of the main Pokemon games.
Two different things. He was right with echolocation.
That Pokemon joke went right over your head.
Anyways, I look forward to the upcoming bat slaughter. It will go nicely with the ocelot/cat slaughter I regularly dish out at my castle. Oh, does anybody know their spawning conditions?
Personally, when I first read that the new neutral mob was bats, I was like 'meh'. Then I hopped on my snapshot survival world (with backups, naturally) and when spelunking, I fell in love with the bats. Walking through ravine/mineshaft with bats flying about was very nice. They add quite a bit of atmosphere to caves, and they really fit into the world of Minecraft.
Bats are passive, by the way. They act like real bats it seems: Sleep during day, awake at night, hang on ceiling, flees when approached by big scary humans.
But I'm definitely in favor of Bat Wings as a potion ingredient. Perhaps Potion Of Blindness, the reason being the saying "Blind As A Bat".
Hopefully this opens the path to a few new things, like birds that spawn during the day (that recycle much of the code) and hostile flaming Nether bats that suicide into the you, setting you on fire.
Proof ^^^
In snapshot 12w34a We have bats. It might be hostile, or neutral. If bats are hostile, witches are not. Vise virsa. Witches are being added to. BTW.

Giving bone meal to a bat makes it become....
BATMAN! \O/

What is... "Echolocation"? Don't you mean... Supersonic?
... touche
I hope they leave guano behind as a resource.
ROFL, I was making a Pokemon joke. I would be very concerned if somebody didn't know what echolocation was.
No, because attacking with their echo location is something that Zubat is known for. It annoyed/annoys anybody who plays the first 4 generations of the game. Hell, omnipresent cave bats that attack with sound is kind of a hallmark of the main Pokemon games.

...but that's just like, my opinion, man.
