Finally, an actual use for it. I was getting sick of pumpkins, you can get seeds but you can only use them for golems, decor or as a hat, now that it's a foodsource, as well as potatoes and carrots, farms will actually be varied instead of "Over here we have wheat, over there there's another field of wheat, to your left there's a wheat field, over there is a self harvesting farm, of wheat, there's a multi-storey wheat farm, and below us is an underground one, oh and some cocoa beans"

Too true! The only other thing I grow is sugarcane. And the occasional melon. That's about it.

Wheat is the only thing really worth growing, 12 wheat will get you from starving to full hunger, it keeps you full for a while and because it only fills 2.5 haunches you're not starving before it's not wasteful to eat it. The potatoes look interesting because they fill 3 haunches and require cooking, but you can get up to 3 from each field.

I know this sounds boring, but I've always been a farmer, in any game that has it I will just farm and farm, I just love the idea of getting back more than I put in.

And here's another thing, this update is meant to be for builders, with all the new decor blocks, the item frames, the cobble fences, the wither's just there because Halloween is coming up, and Jeb's also adding new farmables, what does this mean? It means that because he's looking at farmables (wheat) and new blocks we might actually get a hay bale, which is something I've been waiting for ever since wheat was added.

So what would the bales of hay do? Or would they just be for decoration?  yikes

Imagine a countryside house with a hay roof, or a giant field of wheat with blocks of hay above the water, or a tropical village with hay huts, it's a very useful block, also for storage.

They don't really need feeding unless you're breeding them, and if you have 40+ cows you probably have enough wheat to just run around and spam right click, a block isn't needed.

True, but that would still give it a function. Just a thought. It would be a nice decor though.

Re: Minecraft Official Topic

I'm already tired of putting up fences to stop mobs coming into my house, I don't want to litter the landscape with torches because it's just plain ugly, there's always workarounds for things but the easier way to do it is not have the one little detail that messes up the feature if you want to use it for a certain thing.

I'm not sure I could even watch my Minecrafter eat it. I'd be like... ewww... never mind, I'll just eat some rotten flesh instead. :3 xD

Well true haggis is illegal in the US- yes, that's how, er, American-ly unusual some of the ingredients are.

Re: Minecraft Official Topic

In a stronghold, after locating the portal, put eyes of the ender in all empty blocks, as wasabi said. However, if you are building the portal in creative, the last eye you place, has to be pointing toward the center of the portal, or it won't work. This is all stated here on the Minecraft Wiki, a very helpful resource.  smile

Re: Minecraft Official Topic

I've been told that it's as good (or better) then black pudding which isn't really a pudding
It's dried up blood
And delicous
I don't see why haggis is illegal
Sheep's heart, liver, lungs, and stomach (or sausage casing); onion, oatmeal, suet, spices
Just because it uses organs
Probably
It's not like using organs in meats are illegal anyway
Or if they were then wow a lot of companies are breaking the law
And what about the starving children?
Wow there's so many things wrong with haggis being illegal


cause a bird and a fish could fall in love/but where would they live?

So... new snapshot's out, and the biggest feature is the superflat customization, which isn't even 100% ready.  hmm  Your porklift can now make small jumps, though. That's pretty nice.  big_smile
