xisumavoid – Minecraft 1.8: Pre-Release 1 (The Bountiful Update)

Hello everyone and welcome back to another minecraft update video today is the release of the minecraft 1.8 pre-release are you excited i know that i am this means that minecraft 1.8 is right around the corner for those of you that do not know how a pre-release works is basically the final intended product

But it gives them some time to fix any critical bugs or errors that emerge so this means that basically very soon minecraft 1.8 will finally be released now in the pre-release there are no new features there are some bug fixes and changes that are actually quite important and i thought you would like

To know about and last week we had four snapshots as well i didn’t cover any of those in a video so there are some bug fixes and snapshots from that as well but first of all we are going to cover the changes in the 1.8 pre-release the first of five changes in the

Pre-release is to do with chickens they now remember their late egg times if you didn’t know they lay eggs every five minutes but if you are to log out of a world and log back in or the chunks unload and reload then their lay egg time is reset and now they actually

Remember that which is a cool little change this next one is to do with wall blocks and shears you could previously halve this this without the shears taking any durability you can see there two to eight and now it goes down to two to seven so you won’t be able to do that

Anymore this next change is to do with enderman they could place blocks like this cactus in an illegal position it shouldn’t be able to be next to those blocks like that that’s been corrected enderman can only put the cactus down in a normal position and this next one is

To do with command blocks we need to go into game mode one to open this your game will actually be paused when you open a command block now so you can see all of the chickens over there on the left side of the screen have stopped moving and these snow layers used to

Confuse mobs they would stand on top of them and all they’ll do is jump up and down and not be able to pathfind their ai has now been updated so they understand what snow layers are and they’re now free to pathfind these guys are probably not going to move around

While i’m recording but trust me they can i’ve seen them do that so let’s move on to the bug fixes and changes that were made in the snapshots last week five items have had their graphics changed in the recent snapshots we have the raw rabbit the cooked rabbit the raw

Mutton the cooked mutton and the rabbit’s foot all of these have been changed and they now look a lot more fitting to minecraft i like the way that the rabbit resembles the chicken over here and our mutton resembles the beef in previous versions of the game you

Were able to breed chickens with pumpkin seeds melon seeds and also netherwarts as well which has been considered a bug now you can only breed them with the seeds that you get from wheat so pay close attention as i fly forward here i am now going to sprint and you

Can clearly see we are moving a lot faster this is no illusion previously in the game if you were to press control to sprint when you were flying it would change your field of view but this has now been changed so you actually go faster as well which is a very nice

Addition for creative mode players in spectator mode will no longer interact with xp orbs you can see here that they are not moving that’s because previously they would have been attracted to the player even though they couldn’t pick up the xp orbs but now they just stay where they’re supposed to be

Throwing an ender pearl and then getting into a bed would have previously disrupted the player when the enderpearl landed causing them to take damage without being teleported but now that event is ignored and the player can stay in the bed this next bug fix is for those of you

With mob farms this bug had been plaguing the game for a while now it’s a strange one mobs were not able to spawn on a y value that had a multiple of 16 so if you had a layer of your mob farm on y16 no mobs would be able to spawn on

There as well as all of these other numbers as well and at last that one has been fixed and last of all there have been some changes to zombie pigmen that i wasn’t aware of apparently they can now become unaggressive and they also don’t burn in the daylight in the overworld i don’t

Know when that was changed but it got me thinking about myth busting for those of you that wanted to know myth busting will be returning with the release of minecraft 1.8 and is that guy path finding to the water deliberately so it’s true zombie pigman par fine to

Water even though they’re not on fire welcome to minecraft 1.8 as i was trying to say myth busting will return there are so many new things that we need to learn about and find out the facts and if you haven’t seen mythbusting before there are links on the screen and in the

Description box but that pretty much wraps up this video i am really excited for minecraft 1.8 and i want to know what’s your favorite thing about it for me personally it was the ocean update with the new blocks the new mobs and the new enchantment as well all of that

Stuff is really spectacular but that is it for this video if you have enjoyed it please do leave a like it will always be appreciated and as always thank you very much for watching and i will catch you next time
