From what I've seen and how this is panning out, these are simply tools to be able to survive more in survival mode. Speed helps you get places faster (collect materials faster, explore more, escape mobs), Strength is really the only combat-oriented one which is obviously for taking down mobs better, Jump could let you either jump farther (ie sprinting jump) or higher. I'm banking on farther, Resistance is defense. That includes mobs and falling. Falling is a big hazard, probably moreso than mobs. And last is Water Breathing which is entirely passive and it can only help.

I see no problem with them at all. I'm curious about the potions though.

I have never been more sad than I am right now. :/ Well... I guess it's not that big of a deal, as long as it doesn't gum anything up. But... I mean... Minecraft is a sandbox game, not an RPG. It should stay that way...
There is NOTHING that says a sandbox game can't have RPG elements.

There are plenty of Sandbox RPG's.

Regardless, the picture doesn't show stats, it shows BUFFS that POTIONS give you. Notice the TIMERS on the buff.

Is minecraft suppose to give you a warning message on your computer that says "High CPU usage", it uses "100% of at least 1 CPU"

...meh. It's not like I'm making a big deal about it. After thinking about it, it can only help. If I want to just build stuff, I'll play creative; if I want to fight stuff and whatnot, survival...

But I'd bet there are a lot of people who really are going "WAH STOP RPGIFYING MAH GAME" on MC forum v_v

I'll start playing again when the game stops being gay and stops spawning monsters in my house even though it has 2 layers of wood covering it, there's a fireplace and a lot of torches laying around, the bed isn't on the side of the wall, the doors are on right, and there's totally no holes in the walls that I'm not aware of after investigating like 10 times for holes

So basically read this as: "I'll start playing again because I suck and need peaceful."

Try uploading your map, I'll try and see if anything is wrong with it

No, it's supposed to mean that I'll start playing again once the game stops being gay when I've reinforced my house with like 5 different methods of protection against mobs because for some reason this game keeps glitching out on me, not because I suck

I'll upload it tomorrow. Right now I'm going to sleep

Right now I'm trying to edit the skin of the villagers to look like pig men

The first of the batch will have a lobotomized head with it's brain exposed.

However, I can't seem to get a square pixel brain to look good.

This is a conundrum

I like how they are right now, but I'm more concerned on why they're all named Testisticate.

Yeah, I had a friend at school who was calling them the wrong name too...

1.9 Pre 2 comes out this week - maybe they'll change. :p

By the way John, is your server set to not allow un-whitelisted players from destroying any blocks? If so, could you whitelist me? Name's GwJumpman

Correct, it protects the world from the new people. I'll add you to the list. :p

Creative server is completely open, just add :27050 to the end of the IP address. ;)

I looked up pictures of the brain and shrunk it down to 10 x 10 pixels to see what it would look like.

I mimicked the important features from that perspective and I think it turned out pretty good. Though most people still wouldn't be able to tell what it is. (it's 3 x 8 pixels)

I gave it barbarian clothing, but I don't think that fits. I'll give the barbarian to a different type of villager and probably go for a lab coat

EDIT:

Test 1: No noise added (I'll probably do that later to make it fit with the rest of Minecraft).



Edit 2: Pigman Skeleton, LOL

Nothing more fun than building a kingdom by myself... :happypatface:

You're really good at that pixel art, John. 0_0 ...Learn to maximize your windows though. *is irritated by non-maximized windows* XD

Maximized Minecraft window on a 1920x1080 Widescreen monitor just doesn't look good to me. :p

I plan on doing a lot of Pokemon spriting later today. :)

That Typhlosion probably took me the longest of all the Pixel Art I've done... :p

I'm enjoying hardcore mode.

I'm not using any mods, so it's like when I first starting playing minecraft.

The added threat of dying = map deletion is a huge motivation in my actions

Yeah, I bet...

Also motivation to not build anything grand, since every moment outside you risk losing it forever. :p

Screw hardcore now.

I spawned in the nether over a thousand foot cliff. Literally dropped into lava from hundreds of blocks up

I really liked that map

Unless they made the map height bigger, you're lying, Psycho. :p

Ya should've gotten the seed for the world and made it again. XD I have to admit, the concept of hardcore mode is... stupid. I will never play on it.
