The biggest thing the hunger bar added difficulty wise was that it took away the instant healing effect of bread and meats.

It also reduced the pain of jumping from slightly too high up as the half heart of damage you take is healed very easily.

I remember in early versions most of my health was lost jumping around working on buildings and it was annoying to have to have 8 or so inventory slots filled with meat to patch up.

as for the actual difficulty of finding food? It just depends on your spawn.

its still possible to spawn on an island in the middle of a deep ocean and have to rely on a few seeds or a lucky apple to keep going. large biomes and customized worlds can be surprisingly uninhabitable.

all in all I like how hunger works in mine craft. It is a factor, it is something that you can't ignore, but the pacing seems just right so that it doesn't detract from the main focus of the game.

Just take a break, Find a game that is completely different. like league of legends, or smash bros, or dwarf fortress. Nothing we say here could convince you your having fun when your obviously not. At the end of the day minecraft is still just a game. not a way of life.

I really am looking forward to it, Particularly so blocking with sword is disabled and I can use my offhand to place torches while fighting.

Except that killing the Wither is 100x harder than killing the Dragon.

Honestly if the only obstacle to collecting a beacon was the Wither I would already have a dozen.

I have spent hours grinding wither skeletons only to get 1 skull. this is with a looting enchantment.

Its not the time itself thats a problem, its the thought that I might NEVER get a lucky drop.

Killing the end dragon has a clear procedure, and every step you take can get you closer to that goal and there is very little luck involved. the most grinding you have to do is for ender pearls and blaze rods. Rods are really quite plentiful and you can buy pearls off of villagers if your desperate. (I was).

The beacon was only there for testing purposes. Searge has already tweeted that he simply didn't have the time to remove them before the snapshot was released (I would link to that tweet, but I haven't figured out how to link to specific tweets yet...)

damn, I hope they stay. currently beacons are practically worthless in singleplayer because by the time you get one you are probably fed up with minecraft.

Having one or two beacons available relatively quickly, and in places a survival mode builder would actually want to go for other resources is much better than requiring mindless grinding of wither skeletons for 8 hours.

you don't know how to appreciate the modern nether until you have seen a nether fortress suspended over the lava sea.

I think that the most useless thing in the game is emeralds, Because they are so hard to find and the deals with the villagers are useless junk. It is more worth it to go out and farm the material instead of trade for it with emeralds.

I'll disagree there, I have had leatherworkers and smiths offer good trades for echanted gear that I could use, and although emeralds are hard to find its easy to throw your wheat surplus at a farmer and walk away with 8-9 emeralds.

I would have said rotten flesh, but you can trade it for emeralds with a priest.

the actual most useless? probably the different types of stone, Wool and clay is easier to work with for decoration, and it doesn't have any crafting utility that cobble doesn't match.

I'm going to have to agree with some of the others on here. I think hunger is handled well enough right now. If it was harder to fill the hunger bar or to obtain food, it might become far more tedious than having to spend a couple seconds munching on something.

Make no mistake, I can see the appeal of making it harder. I just don't think it would be fully appreciated by the masses. As another suggested, there are some mods out there that could possibly help turn the food mechanic into something more suited for you.

It isn't blood, the brown hearts are just a way to display the amount of damage you do to any enemy; it is no different than when you damage an enemy in a MMO and red numbers appear above them to show the damage done. Also keep in mind that item tool tips don't accurately depict damage done to an enemy by themselves. You still have to apply any defenses the enemy might have, alongside extra damage from critical hits.

Not to mention, the brown hearts themselves are far from a representation of actual blood. Unless you guys seep floating brown hearts instead of a red fluid when you bleed, I don't see how it is reasonable to be offended by this feature in that way. I mean, it's like trying to compare juice to blood... Then getting offended by the juice because it comes from fruit as you cut or squeeze it. Both comparisons are equally stupid.

The main point of the feature was to give a visual representation of the amount of damage done to any enemy after applying defenses and critical hit bonuses, not to depict blood. So no, Mojang didn't break any promises this time around.

Lol Update 8 with 8 views xD

Day 8 added (i will move day 5 ,6,7 and day 8 to here, thanks to Zeno410 for telling me that the OP is so slow to load because of the images, so each page will have 4 days only for faster image loading )

I hear it's better cuz it's no longer running on Java Platform Entirely.

It's not better just because of the coding language, it was just simply optimized to run on phone hardware which happens to run like a dream when you port it over to superior computer hardware.

16. keep walking in one direction and never stop until you die

17. find all strongholds (done this and found 3 :D)

18. build an enderfarm in end

19. build the biggest portal possible

20. try to kill an enderman with your hand

21. post on this thread

22. stare at my profile pic.. cuz my profile pic can see you

There is also a bug where you can be pushed through the Shulker's hit-box by placing a block above you and the Shulker under you. Since the Shulker acts as a block you can put a Shulker above you instead of a block. I made a fun game with this where you have to avoid the lifting Shulkers or you would fall through to your death.
