we definitely need beaches back, in real life it's very rare to see a grassland go straight into the ocean. beaches were a great part of beta, i don't see why mojang need to remove them. as for ocean, keep the clay, but make the patches smaller and rarer. dirt should be removed from oceans, but be dominate in lakes.

The splotches underwater wouldn't be so bad if the dirt was removed. The clay is fine as it is.

What I hate is running into a underground ravine or an abandoned mineshaft every 2 ****ing feet. I'm a miner at heart and I love to build expansive large mines. Always have and always will. The increased frequency of these underground has messed this up considerably.

I want my beaches back!

I don't really like threads like this but you did have a great arguement and I now support this 100%. I think that beach biomes will come back though.

Yes, i totaly agree. I miss beaches >:sad.gif:

I support the return of both sand and gravel beaches, along with slightly more uniform underwater bedding.

Perhaps the bedding of a swamp can stay the same so people can find clay easily there.

I'm glad to hear that you think that way. A ton of other annoying threads simply complain about features that aren't really terrible, but the issues concerning beaches and underwater bedding should be pretty obvious, even without any argumentation.

And I do believe beaches will eventually return as well, but I'm not sure if Jeb will fix the current underwater bedding since it doesn't seem as important. It is though, and it needs to be dealt with accordingly.

Bedding looks awful, and I liked the gravel beaches...

The bedding is a huge eyesore to me.

I miss spawning on a beach back in the day. I edited my post on the second page, but I doubt it will be seen again so

At least make the edges of the water (beaches/shores and bedding) change according to where the water is:
1. Oceans should have sand, gravel, and occasional clay on the floor and beaches (and gravel beaches should have no nearby sand and sand beaches have no nearby gravel).
A)If tropical vs temperate (vs arctic) oceans are implemented, all tropical beaches should be sand and tropical ocean floors have sand (and maybe sponge or coral if added), half of the temperate beaches being sand and half being gravel with sand beaches having some gravel also with the sea floors of temperate oceans being mostly gravel with some sand and clay.
2. Swamps would have clay and dirt under the water and some sand if near an ocean.
3. Rivers should have dirt, clay, gravel, and/or sand depending on what biome they are in. Rivers going through forests would have gravel floors, rivers going through plains would have dirt and clay with occasional sand.

I really liked the beaches before 1.8 :sad.gif:
