Minecraft 1.7 Features/Discussion

New information from Jeb:

  • New pre-generated structures like villages and strongholds
  • Birch forest
  • Taigas without snow (in addition to snowy taigas)
  • Savannas
  • Black forest (very thick brush and canopy)

The fishing improvements do seem to have made it into 1.7 and there are now about a dozen different things you can catch including different fish types, items, and "some bad things".
 
And just for Nouv:

Dinnerbone: So a lot of people have been complaining that name tags and stuff are too rare.
W92Baj: Really?
Dinnerbone: Well, if you play on a multiplayer server, I guess like Minecrack, then name tags are probably going to be a scarcity.

Which is why they are currently an uncommon catch from fishing in 1.7.

That is so awesome! I am so excited for the snapshot to come out!!!
 
The first 1.7 snapshot has been released. However, a list of its features is not being posted yet. You should be able to load it using a new profile on the launcher.

Been playing with the snapshot. I caught an enchanted bow while fishing, theres many new flowers (MANY!!), clownfish and pufferfish, watch breathing potions, other stuff, ah gotta get back to class. No more forums for me atm. :/
 
The second snapshot is out and has quite a few fun features including the ability to make a nether portal any size up to and including 23x23.

Now that a week has passed since the release of the first 1.7 snapshot I will begin updating this thread.
 
I'm most excited about the chat feature that allows clicking text to execute actions. This allows for things like party invites, arena challenges, etc to be accepted simply by clicking on a chat link. Anything I can do to remove using slash commands makes me happy.

I thought these were only clickable by people who had OP..I mean, if you want to get everyone OP, that's cool.

I doubt that, and if that were the case, through bukkit, I'd be able to control it anyway.
 
One interesting thing I noticed about flower forests is that each type of flower spawns in a specific area of the forest. After removing all of the flowers, bonemealing the grass will bring back the same flowers in each area. Also bonemealing tall flowers drops flowers.

Think of it as /sudo
 
I've been a Mojang employee for 7 years now and I know Notch and Jeb. I can confirm that 1.7 will in fact be released before Halloween.
