Jeb and the new 1.7 Biomes
Spookyhappyfun
sdjh
1.7 is going to be glorious and full of new biomes and revamped world gen.
In case you haven't seen them yet, here are two pictures that Jeb has posted of new biomes in progress:
These are some sort of canyons of mesas that make use of the new hardened clay blocks to resemble exposed strata.
This is some sort of coniferous forest that contains mossy cobblestone, a new dirt-like block called podzol, and regular dirt blocks that remain dirt and can't grow grass.
Thoughts?
EDIT 8/8/13:
He just posted a picture of a new one. Well, not a biome, per se, but seaside cliffs!
And you see the snow on top? That's not a tiaga biome. They're working on having snow fall above a certain altitude!

I am literally squeeing because of the forest one

ALRIGHT. BIOMES. WE GET IT. JK, can't wait for another addition to MC.

If not for that "JK", you'd be kicked straight out of our biome club. We don't even joke abuot things like that around here, son. Let this be a warning to you.
JK.

iRorriI really love them BOTH!
I love them both as well, but I love just about any biome. If I had my way, we'd have a Minecraft full of all the old pre-beta 1.8 biomes alongside the current biomes, and new biomes with every update.
I'M BIOME CRAZY!
1
I really love them BOTH! But Jeb is far from being complete with the first one, like he said "disco biome" it came out strange, it was an early stage Don't get your worries guys :s
1
hmm.... well... i was a hater but now i really like "coniferous forest" biome! that hardened clay one can go to hell. imagine if you had large biomes on and you found yourself in the middle of that clay crap. Im wandering if one would loose his sense of direction sense this biome looks featureless!
1
Maybe we'll get a snapshot today with some of these implemented. If not, hopefully we'll at least get a picture of another new biome before next week.
1
The canyons biome looks kinda ugly :/ But the second one is totally cool.

Spookyhappyfunbrianswag12The Forest is going to be great but will they add something to the ocean biomes?
We're all waiting for some ocean content. Maybe this time? Coral reefs, new underwater mobs, or even just putting the sponge on the bottom of the oceans in bunches would be something. A start, at least.
Hopefully. We'll see.
I actually hope they put in coral. I actually like to go into creative and make little coral structures out of the Sponge block, because it already resembles coral.

I love them .

I heard something about adding volcanoes to the oceans, and actually having red dragons (possible overworld boss :O)
1
I believe they are going to add a few things to the ocean.

I like the forrest idea.
Although they really are not the most exciting new biomes, its still pretty cool.

I hope they also complex villagers

So excited. I bet that people will hate it for no reason just like 1.6. I personally like 1.6.

Don't worry. This happens with every update ever.

Actually, I think they mentioned several months back that Jeb had been talking with a guy from either Biomes O' Plenty of ExtraBiomes XL. If so, amazing!
1
i would like to see more biomes like the biomes o plenty mod biomes
1
Wait, did you say SLENDERJEB?
1
Slenderjeb is here to get you!
1
i cant wait.. THIS WILL BE FING AMAZING
1
Very exciting, I must say. Minecraft is getting more into a realistic world of nature, but in pixels.
1
I feel the "disco mountains" as Jeb called them, are one of the stupidest things he could possibly implement into the game, if your gonna do that then you better use better materials than clay
1
The first picture reminds me of Arizona and The second picture looks like Mt. Hood national forest in Oregon
1
Super excited for this!
1
Well, whenever I see new biome pictures, I just think of the first released picture of the new Extreme Hills biome. Then I actually explore one, and the ones I find look like shat.
1
Wait
Who is the person on the first image in the middle?
WAT
I can't be the only one imagining the possibilities of a new mob for at least one of the biomes

Is "herobrine" but is just a joke they always put random eastern eggs in their pictures.

1.7 will not be out for quite a long time because 1.6 was just brought out so do not expect it to be out next month just warning

With the amount of minecraft mods there are, it's likely an update will have something similar. What your saying is like complaining that the minecraft horse update copied a minecraft horse mod.
1
Actually, the horses are the same horses from the Mo' Creatures mod. They got the mod creator to help them with it.
1
It looks almost like a rip-off of that many different biomes mod that I forgot the actual name to. It added coniferous forests that which dirt didn't grow grass and a kind of mountains biome that looked somewhat like the first picture. Once again, Jeb is ripping off another mod. I know it's kind of hard to come up with new ideas nowadays, but please, stay original.
The first one contrasts terribly with the surrounding biomes, so I hope the preview is really only a preview and it turns out better later.

Coniferous forest looks really awesome And Cherries Pie!
Think of all the Slender maps to be had! With pie!

They also plan on adding spruce trees to the Extreme Hills and possibly adding Cherry Trees.

This should be interesting.... hurhurhur

This. So much this.
haha xD

Lol I just mean this is what I've been waiting for for a very long time. I live in Arizona, and this is what it looks like most of the time.

Thinking about it, with the "no-grass" dirt blocks, mapmakes are going to be so happy at the cahnge to finally make dirt roads that don't have to be gravel or cobblestone all the time. I'm really looking forward to utilizing that in my next big project after my current map.

Jeb also shared this picture yesterday showing off a map that he uses to see all the various biomes and how they are layed out in the new update. It's a work in progress, but it's fascinating.
According to this, it looks like there are plenty of new biomes, many of which we don't know anything about. Also, it looks like the world gen will be changed so that biomes group together in ways that make sense now. No more deserts beside jungles or snow.

I believe you have the wrong Jeb bro. This isn't even the same game that means LOL. So, we still know all the biomes. Make sure you have the right information before you go spread a story.
