then by all means go yell at @jeb_

It seems Minecraft is turning into primarily a fighting game, and all I care about is building. Kinda bummed.

I'd disagree with you there. My opinion is that in the previous versions it felt like a building game which had monsters thrown in for really no reason, and you got little to nothing but wounds from it. I like the fact combat is actually going to be rewarded for those who want to fight, while building is still heavily the primary goal.

[derigin]

more stuff!

@Notch
Ender Pearls will do stuff

It'll be short range teleportation, more than likely.

Or you could throw them like chicken eggs and make monsters passive and follow you around :3

Android Minecraft out on Thursday!

phew that was a lot to go through...

Mods? considering i dont think this thread is going away any time soon can i ask for a sticky? i think its a good idea to have a news feed like this as a permanent fixture (if not then okay il just keep bumping it and hoping it doesnt spontaneously explode)

[Aenir_bEPU]

If you keep it active enough it won't need a sticky.

[Sti_Jo_Lew]

This. Thanks for all the info though. I'm not a social network type of guy. I just game.

your exactly the kind of person i made this for. by the way do you use the links?

[Sti_Jo_Lew]

The ones to the tweets? Of course.

[EricSmarties]

We should have like a twitter Feed Board where all the tweets of the mojang team are streamed

this is close enough Eric.

EDIT: last update of the day
@Notch
more info on reparing!
Yet More info!

@jeb_
why Potions probably wont be in 1.9

[wokka1]

Vallorn, this is nice, I was thinking about finding a website or doing one myself that would just pull all of the good tweets from Mojang and link them like this.

I've made this a sticky for you.

A suggestion, put the tweets in the OP, organize in them in sections if needed (1.9 info, scrolls info, cobalt info, 1.10, etc), and if a tweet is older or outdated, just put it into a spoiler tag for reference, then bump the post.

This is a nice service, it will help me a lot instead of digging through all of their tweets every day or so.

Thanks

[vallorn]

thanks Wokka

yeah looking back i probably should have put them in the OP... well no time like the present!

[wokka1]

Thanks Vallorn, going forward, put the date next to it as well, I'd suggest the format DD Month, ie 28 Sept, just cause you Brit's do things differently with the MM/DD/YY format

This will save me a lot of time!

[vallorn]

new stuff on Endermen!
i shall fix this
severe nerf on EnderThieves

also im now timestamping the spoilered tags in the OP for you guys. the format is DD/MM/YY "24 hour clock".
enjoy

thanks for the tips wokka. thatl make it a lot easier for people to find old tweets

EDIT: Meanwhile! At Mojang!

Wow, cool stuff. It's been a lot of fun to watch this game develop since I bought it in Alpha.

If you guys haven't hear them, the new records really are great. Some of them remind me of my Runescape days... .-. Nice stuff to have playing in the background while doing busywork or just watching the new sexy sunrises. (:
