Oh you have got to be kidding me... Not another one of these threads.. Are there a few bugs with this update? Yes. What update doesn't have bugs though...
As for the new launcher: It's amazing. I don't understand why people don't like it... It gives us WAY more options than the old one, yet people are upset that it isn't 'pretty'?! IT IS A LAUNCHER FOR CRYING OUT LOUD. IT LAUNCHES THE GAME. You only have to look at it for like less than thirty seconds..
If you're not happy with the update, don't use it. You're free to downgrade with the new launcher that everyone oh so hates..
So far:
-I've been forced to sleep through the nights due to the zombies
-Had every lead I've set up disappear causing animals to escape
-Since leads disappear and I have my area (270x270 or something) fenced off, I let my horse roam free,
It went into the nether and decided to fall down, so I spent about 5 minutes getting it back to the overworld, then it died in a lake within minutes
-New lapis block texture sucks
-New client is not needed at this current time... only used to switch to 1.5.2 to play custom maps that are broken in 1.6 due to new zombie mechanics
-Not a huge fan of the clay blocks
Only good thing I feel is the coal blocks, which should have been added along side with redstone block... but only for storage reasons... they are not very appealing to the eye...
I realize there are a lot of bugs but do you guys not realize that most of the bugs are about to be gone because like after all updates that are relatively large or add new mobs there is a second bug update to fix it 1.6.2 is already on its way stop complaining
The fifth topic like this I've seen in 2 days. Must be a new world record.
-Lefty
Should have seen the elder scrolls forums every time they talked about new features for Skyrim before it was out. These people are in every gaming forum I'm afraid.

And exactly HOW does the lapis texture "suck"? Also, if you don't like the clay blocks, then hey, pro tip, they are optional. You do NOT need to use them. And if the reason you hate the new launcher is that it doesn't look good, suck it up. It's just a launcher, you don't have to look at it for too long, and they're going to make it "look good" in an update or two. Just chill out.
Okay, MC is now just unplayable!!! I can't even rename, speak or look in my inventory as it keeps flashing other programs, and refreshing. This means I can't speak in multiplayer, as when I try to speak, whatever text I wrote is erased! Except from this horrible bug, MC is fine. I'm wondering if there is a work around this, and if anyone else is suffering the same thing. I need help, please respond ASAP!!!
1.6.2 is coming soon...
And yet you still whine.
Sometimes the intelligence of people is so low its just pathetic.
THIS UPDATE SUCKS BALLS #1 IT LAAAAAAAGGGGGGS LIKE CRAP #2 Horses Are Stupid #3 Signs are glitched and I cant write on them! #4 Rescource packs Made ME lose MY AWESOME TEXTUREPACKS!!

Apples are now nerfed, regen is now nerfeed, armor is now nerfed. The zombie spawning algorithim is awful (I've had them spawn inside my house in full lighting, multiple times).
Zombies are now annoying as hell and the game isn't as fun because of this.
The sheer amount of bugs proves that people are basically paying to be bugtesters (obviously Mojang is too cheap to hire any.)
The crafting recipes for the horse armor and saddle were intentionally removed to encourage exploration. The launcher is better than the old one in every way aside from aesthetics, which will be addressed after it's at full functionality, so I'd say there was infact work put into it.
>feature absence to encourage a certain style of play
The definition of poor game design.

Yep, agreed. I still find the new zombie AI and spawning exceptionally annoying; they come from ACROSS THE GLOBE (well past render distance on lower settings) to eat you & your village, inexplicably spawn more zombies when you hit them (Where's the literature or other logical precedent for that? Zombies are amoebas or planarians now?) and pretty much tie you down so that you can't do anything besides either fight all night, or sleep through it.
I maintain that Minecraft is not, and should not be, a survival horror game to the exclusion of being a building sandbox. There are other games that do survival horror a thousand times better & with actual graphics. The only strong point of Minecraft is the sandbox nonlinearity; if you're actually forced to do the same thing over and over and over again...well, so much for that.
Yes, I am aware that you can brick over the house doors and seal the villagers in. Thats' a good solution to a bad programming situation. My suggestions would be to:
-Make daylight burn these things WAY faster, bordering on instant. They also really oughta take "some" daytime damage when standing in water. Ever been to the beach? ...Do you think the sun hits you any less in the water? ...Howd' that sunburn turn out?
-Slow down baby zombies - o wait, 1.6.2 will already do that. Mhm. See...
-Make these changes difficulty specific. A person playing on normal or easy should NOT have to deal with this.
-Reduce the zombie detection range for villagers STAT. It's bad enough they can see you from 100 blocks away; it's a death sentence for villagers.

I just... Wow. If 1.6. is really that bad for some... Sheesh... You know, you can switch back to 1.5.2. on the launcher, right? It's just... Gosh...
Gold apple nerfs, zombies spawning within 2 blocks of me in full lighting, no crafting recipes for some of the horse items, horses can't swim, horses noclip, untamed horses can't breed.
Plays like a snapshot, indeed the "Worst Update Ever".
Horse armor is simple to find and none-breakable, horses can move in one block deep water and you can use a lead to bring them back to land, they are fixing horse bugs, and what is the point of breeding untamed horses? Bring some better reasons to call it the worst update and try again.

I'm with CreeperFlame on this one, Minecraft is far to simple now, you can just sprint away from danger, Horses for one, some are faster than Minecarts. Which completely eliminates the expense of what it would take to make a rail-system making mining even more pointless. Minecraft used to have no goal, just building a house and mining was the point and that was addicting I personally hate everything that has been added since the 2012 Halloween Update. There are easily more PVP servers than building or other sorts of friendly interaction. and that is why I just play downgraded servers now
I agree, 1.6 is the worst update ever - it adds so much random and useless stuff, and also changes so much on how the underlaying system works - it adds the ugliest game launcher I've ever seen (when is it going to get an aesthetic update?) and completely changes the login system, and not to mention it makes mod installation unnecessarily complex. All of this in the name of a Mod API that won't come to fruition for at least half a year? Way to plan in advance, Mojang.
horses uses:
1. Move faster (causes lag) and makes it 9 times easier for people to kill people who have laggy computers (me)
2. Jumps high (causes lots of lag) making it even easier to kill people who lag (me)
lead uses:
1. helps move animals fast (Way to easy)
Mules uses:
1. Moves things around (just like a horse makes you lag)
coal block uses:
1. (Only thing useful in this update) helps you not take up so much space in your chests
hardened clay/stained clay uses:
1. Nothing pointless cause we have wool
carpets uses:
1. nothing again we have wool
name tag uses:
1. not to bad just names things for you on survival
Horse armor uses:
1. makes horses harder to kill and if your fighting someone with a laggy computer again they will have no chance in winning
Food being drained when you regenerate uses:
1. nothing this just makes it hard on noobs
zombie swarms uses:
1. nothing this just makes it hard on noobs
hay bales uses:
1. make horses grow faster (making it easy to populate with them and kill them and get leather make enchantment table put book shelves and get lvl 30 in 2 mins and have alot of horses making even more lag
Donkey uses:
1. just like a mule
you should have not made things (like horses) over lap things you have made in the past (pigs and carrot on a stick) pigs are useless just get cows and horses no need for pigs
carpet really we have wool no need for that
hay bales should work with all animals
and guess what now my 1.6.1/1.6.2 don't work so even if i liked the update i couldn't play on it

I do think it was a good update, although some features (like hay bales) could have been left without.
And I think they should make name tags craftable. (that gives me an idea for a mod: craftable name tags)

So you can breed large herds at a time.
