New post: New improved 1.7

 

Orginal post: 7/30/13

**Updated 8/7/2013**

 

So I did a little poking around and came up with they finally updated the wiki. (if you didn't know they never update the wiki at mojang)
 

The things in BOLD are "planned changes".

The other things in Italic are not 100% but planned in the future

Planned changes.

Future planned items, blocks, mobs etc.

  • Rendering engine rewrite (helps a lot for older machines and make fps increase)
  • A new "indestructable enchantment" (Makes armour if book is found unbreakable)
  • A cauldren enchant rumored by Jeb
  • Expanding on enchantment books (adding new unenchantable books to loot chests)
  • A friendslist system (so you know where your friends are playing and if there online)
  • More villager updates
  • Hopefully a red dragon (but there not sure how to bring it to minecraft)
  • More animals (to make the game feel more alive)
  • New and more complex fishing
  • Ha modding API (not even gonna start...)

Plan is to update this, as I find out more info to add it. To keep everyone on there toes :) -Fish

Fish, some people were talking about this on SMP the other day. Rumor is that Mojang is planning on adding a mimic (an agressive chest) to the game.

Yeah but knowing how Mojang works they'll push it back and start changing the update completly. So I'll keep updating this as I see more info.

Knowing how a witch is just a retextured villager, I bet the red dragon is just a smaller red version of the ender dragon.

That would make sence, but I do belive I read Jeb putting something on Twitter about it being smaller so good point.

Do you have a link to this, I haven't read anything about that. From what I know cauldrons are 1 bucket to fill why would you take out a source you put in?

I can tell you now, the red dragon thing has been speculated about since 1.0.0 with no real information about it added. Fairly safe to say it probably won't show up in the new update.

Odd, I just realised that in the picture of the new biome the desert next to it still had water pools.

He didn't say he was showing off new biomes, just the generation.

Where are you getting this?

Ive seen some things noted here that are confirmed,  but alot is stuff unconfirmed, where are you getting so many rumors, that I don't even think are real.
