I love the new features, as said above by numerous people before I have to reiterate .. Flowerchild took a fun toy called minecraft and made it into a challenging game!
superb stuff.

Re: 4.64 Balance Observations & Discussion

Re: 4.64 Balance Observations & Discussion
While felling a giant oak tree is one of my most hated tasks in minecraft, the fiddlyness and the skills required over and above felling the small trees balances nicely with the abundance of resource. The jungle trees however do not feel properly in balance to me. I concur. It's a matter of some ea...

Re: 4.64 Balance Observations & Discussion

Re: New Release! (BTW V4.64)
This is the change I'm most excited about.
