I always thought that a lack of flying mobs means that you don't have to always make a full house, often just a platform with walls. Some kind of outdoor flying mob on the way aswell perhaps.

I think it's more likely that the upset fans story is a cover for something worse.

Better that he get the site locked down now before something nastier happens down the line.

What exactly do you mean?

Well it would seem there's a lot of money going into Minecraft. If you wanted to hijack it, saying you're just a bunch of angry fans would be an acceptable cover story I guess. Although, having any cover story at all is stupid, but thieves have a tendency to be notoriously stupid as my junk mail seems to illustrate.

I really hope that on Hard difficulty the occasional Ghast will spawn in the regular world.

I think I read on Notch's twitter that there's a slight chance of ghasts spawning near portals in the regular world...

Wasn't that about a slight chance of them spawning near portals in Hell? So normally they don't spawn near ur portal, but rarely they do. However I do hope they spawn in the regular world aswell. The update's gonna be awesome Smiley

Looked it up.

@notch will the ghasts only be in hell, or will they be in the normal dimension as well?
Quote from: notch
@jakeyyyboyy if you've got a gate, they can (rarely) spawn there.

Has anybody noticed that those Ghasts have to be at least 6x6x6 blocks in size?

I thought they were just close to the player.

They're actually 4x4x4. Notch mentioned it on his blog or twitter or something.

Hangedman, you can tell because of the one in the top-left corner. It's got some blocks in front of it for comparison. And yeah, 4x4x4 is still huge.

This will be awesome. I wonder how portal placement will work?
And whether I will be able to set up a network of doors to flood my portal chamber with lava in case ghasts come in through there?  Evil

If a tree falls in the forest and no one is around to hear it, is sound_tree_fall.play() called?

Diamond picks :D
I found a good way of mining obsidian is to have water flowing over it so that the lava underneath is turned to obsidian and doesn't destroy the dropped block.

Will I have to set my obsidian on fire then? Or is there an actual Fire block? And what happens on the other end of the portal? In particular, can I open a portal from the other side?

On second thoughts, I can wait another week until the update and find out for myself! Smiley
