1.13/1.14

The upcoming update shouldn't break existing worlds, looks like a really solid update at the moment and I'm really excited for it :O

Changes made so far in the newest snapshot!

aww but none of the new stuff will spawn in my area, except for maybe mobs.

[FishSandwich]

We're resetting on this update anyways, so nothing will be spawning in your area. For the sake of it non-existing and all.

Oh sweet!! New world, new home, new map, new kingdom, new spawn town, new everything! Do we know when the update is coming? it seems pointless to keep working on my stuff actually.

[Ellenoria]

Awesome, I'm excited for a new start! the update is planned for sometime early to mid spring ish. At least that's what they're hoping for, but the current snapshots are still missing quite a lot of stuff, so it could be late spring to early summer at the latest.

[FishSandwich]

Nope, that was when 1.13 and 1.14 were still separate updates. They've now been merged, but that means the technical update will arrive a little later, but the aquatic features will arrive a little earlier. No details on how much earlier that is exactly, but still.

I'm excited for the update.  The change in water is going to be "fun".

i am looking forward to fish tanks

[FishSandwich]

I too am looking forward to getting a tank.

I've looked at thousands of maps trying to find the perfect seed.  I'll have the right one selected in time.

[Hippiecheese]

Why not just do a random world?

[rev_xpurple]

Going with the theme of 1.13 being the aquatic update I'd like to have a lot of nice deep oceans.  Not all maps provide this.  Also, its' good to have nicely formed land masses rather than just a swath of solid land with dots of ocean "large lakes" here and there.  It's also good to have a balance of various biomes and or various other structures.  Nothing like having to go 20,000 blocks to find an end portal or a mooshroom island.

That's fair, maybe I should live underwater this time.

That's fair, maybe I should live underwater this time.

I think we should all live underwater this time.. lets make an all ocean survival world... just to shake things up a bit.
