@R4iscool1 We don't reset unless we have too.
The map is young and unless it has some problems I am not aware of there will be no reset.

Alright

@Dennari43 @OtherGreenGamer
Thanks for explaining it, that makes sense. I guess I have a very different attitude to the the crafting system, and possibly the game, to some other people. I've always seen crafting as a means to an end, a relatively minor part of the game to provide you with tools to explore your own creativity. When I started playing the crafting system was the biggest turn-off because it created a barrier between me and even the most basic elements of the game. Having to constantly leave the game to refer to the wiki was frustrating and time consuming, and got in the way of me actually exploring aspects of the game I was interested in.

@OtherGreenGamer Part of the fun of Minecraft was discovering what you could make with your own logic and thinking, and the joy that comes when you do.

I don't feel like this aspect of the game has been lost at all. I suspect the majority of players here have most of the crafting recipes committed to memory and still enjoy discovering what they make with the tools given to them.

For me Minecraft has always been about using the tools available to create something incredible in form or function, something greater than the sum of its parts that you can feel proud of. Learning the crafting system was something you had to slog through to get to the real game.

People never like change! I remember when the pvp changed - it seemed hard at the time but very soon i realised how much better and more challenging it is, even if as kinkyboss said this morning i suck at it! :) I started on the new map thinking oh no my base etc, but i never went back to the old one except to take screenshots.

I am looking forward to the update with new blocks and no more having to have a red bed (not that i have one at all at my base).

As for a recipe book why not? It will help the newbees. There is an option for limited crafting which would add a level of challenge but i doubt it is workable on cm but i shall try it out on my home sp just for the fun of it.

Oh and @HaloNest i think mumbo was actually making fun of people that dont like change in that video.

Oh, well I just saw the title

The limited crafting is the worst part

care to elaborate how it's the worst part?

sums up nicely what this is

@GrinningBobcat

Just because we don't use them doesn't mean we won't see them. It doesn't go with the blocky simple look of minecraft. I don't think it ruins minecraft, but it is very out of place.

Plus they look like clown vomit.

@Venetorem

I quite like the pink terracotta blocks

@Venetorem
doesn't matter what it is, or how many times it happens. People like what they're used to

But when you provide a reason why you don't like something, you can't brush it off as "You just don't like change". If that were true, I could provide an (equally pointless) argument that you just don't like people having different opinions. My point is as previously stated, not because "I don't like change". On the extreme to prove a point; If minecraft were going to switch from sandbox to FPS, I would be opposed to that not because "I don't like change" but because it changes core aspects of the game itself. Get it now?

@Beedobi I quite like the pink terracotta blocks

Sure, all preference really.

I'm gonna stop now, before this turns into a debate class, unless someone cares to pm me. I'd hate to bring this way off track.

You do realize i was making that to the point that at every update for any game, some people will complain about it. Not this specific update or game. Eventually everyone will get used to it. If you dont want to use the recipe book, dont use it. If you dont like the new blocks, domt use them. It isnt something to get annoyed by.

i like the birds , unbind jump key. ;c

i bet with all of the complaints with 1.12 there will be a texture pack changing the ugly (in my opinion) autocrafting option.

People actually hate the new blocks? What? I thought they were amazing and stunning all the colors and patterns were so gorgeous to me. It gives such a new approach to designers I'm excited for them personally
I'm excited for the whole update

i agree with you opinion wise. the reason alot of people are complaining is because the terracotta looks alot more smooth in its textures and colors then most other blocks making some feel it doesn't look minecrafty.

solution: texture pack

We'll still see them. Not looking at something won't make it disappear. But terracotta blocks I can deal with. the crafting guide I can't stand. Though I do think we should update obviously, I also think Mojang should get their shit together and focus on other things, not this crap. You should find out what you can create, trail and error using logic. Not just be told what to create, that'd just be boring.

Having a map to find something isn't really finding at all

Ok now I'm done I promise. D:

But you only get the recipe in the book if you've made it before. You would still have to use trial and error to figure them out

@Venetorem But you only get the recipe in the book if you've made it before. You would still have to use trial and error to figure them out

Wrong actually, "doLimitedCrafting" is the gamerule to do that. (Problem with that is even if you have the materials to make something you can't make it unless you had the proper progression in recipes). It's off by default. That means that if you have the materials in just shows you how to make everything with that material.

I don't watch this guy but it's a good showing of how it works

Well, the guide is bc Mojang has plans to unite PC with pocket edition (Make them the same version) so it is easier to do some things or for new players to understand the game better and expand to other platforms

@Chilled_Chaos
Also, I have good idea. What if they made it that whenever you want to craft some thing, you have to craft it manually (laying out all the blocks separately on a crafting table) first, and then it gives you the recipe. That would be kinda cool, and I don't see any cons with it compared to this update. (unless you're a fucking noob who is so lazy to search up minecraft fences just once) This way, you will only have to search it up once, instead of having to search it up every time.

-Chilled

And this is exactly how I would suggest it to be.

please update

If anyone doesn't want the new crafting thingy just use an old GUI texture pack

Well it looks ugly but I can see the point of this, they are targeting the pocket edition players since they always had this auto-crafting feature, just like the auto jumping feature that was added with 1.10 (or 1.11?) update.

To me its unnecessary and it destroys the DIY feel of the game but I'm fine with it as long as they keep the classic crafting.

About the terracotta blocks, I agree that they look too high-res and they don't feel like they are part of the vanilla texture pack. I might actually start using a texture pack after using vanilla for so long...

the autocrafting may bring me back to mc, because when i play games i enjoy immersion and tabbing out to look up recipies tends to break the immersion. i see that feature as a good thing

@JuraraJupiter In the newest snapshot they added the ability to shift click to make as many of an item as you can. Therefore, fill your inventory with diamonds, shift click to make diamond blocks. Extremely welcome, needed addition that old players like me should enjoy because things like that have always felt too clunky. It's not autocrafting like in PE, it's a mix of that and standard crafting, but it boils down to just being a way to autofill the crafting grid. It's amazing. Can you guys complain about the parrots not being able to do more than hovering instead of wasting your time on this? thx

agree 100%

Parrots will now dance and change their colors when you play a music disc near them, wild or tame. And you can make them sit down now so they stay in a certain location.

You can shift click now to make items in bulk which i do all the time - this addition to make as many as you can could cost me dear! Thanks @JuraraJupiter - at least i am forewarned now.
