Minecraft terrain is now lame. EVERY SEED IS THE SAME! It's predictible. It's... flat.
Ok, there needs to pe SOME flat places. To build a castle. You know. But flat is predictible. In 1.7 there were "mountians" in every biome. Now we have the "extreme hills". They are literaly extreme hills. Not mountians.
Also, BEACHES are hilly. It's like insted of placing new blocks, they replaced some old blocks. Kinda ugly. We need variaty! I don't mind gravel beaches. There ok.
Cave are too long! This makes the game easyer. There should be BIG caves, but those big ones should be rare. Like, .25% of caves are large.
@Jeb_: Fix the terrain please!
This is the only problem with the game. Everything else is GREAT!

IMAGINE if the world generation of each map was like the terraforming from
Aurelien-Sama that would be great..

Well, I guess I got to do this.
BUMP.

Not every seed is the same. Try not putting it on Superflat and that would help. (•‿•)

That was a cleverly disguised bump there.
Only bump once every 24 hours.

No, it wasn't a bump. Whatever.
EDIT: I see how it could have been a "Clevery descuised bump". Also, does anyone know how to delete a thread they made? There dosn't seem to be the "X" button.

I feel this post is dead. If no more comments are comming in, I'll delet the post. It's outlived it's popularity.

Yeah, I remember playing in 1.0.0, and the terrain had a more "adventure-y" land. Now I seem to find an overabundance of hills and snow biomes.
1
I want the Alpha terrain back!
EDIT: Or at least an option to generate terrain like it was in Beta or Alpha without instilling any fancy mods.

I kinda agree with this thread, a bit more variety in the landscape makes gameplay way more interesting and challenging. The terrain could use better beaches, since many in real life are much broader and flatter than the ones Minecraft has to offer

Who cares about the terrain? I don't really mind.

That bump did somthing! But, I refuse to use it every day.
So many comments, so little time. [Sighs]

Needs more dragons!

Yes, Minecraft terrain has certainly lost it's "WOW" factor over time. 1.5 was really the last update with cool terrain.
1
yes its sucks.. that's why i use mods to make more epic!

No, are you crazy?

I will probably regret this, but...

@Germel: That would be a great idea, but Jeb_ thinks otherwise...

Maybe only Maybe Jeb should make a option where you can select "Alpha terrain" , "Beta Terrain" or "Newest Terrain" A bit like that mod... whats it called again... ehmm.. i dont remember. ?

MaximusDoobiusWhat Minecraft needs is to have the beaches and flatlands be flat.
The Jungles should be a tiny bit bumpy or hilly but mostly flat with the excetion of maybe one mountain in the centre.
Deserts are fine the way they are.
Tundra needs to be a bit mor ejutted out and mountain filled but with flat areas too.
Icy Plains are fine.
Ocean Biomes i would like to see maybe a few little mountains or something jutting out in the deeper areas.
Forests are great.
Extreme Hills Biomes are good but should be a bit more mountain-like. Similar to MC1.0.
Swamps i love the way they are.
Good ideas! I'll post them on the main post, if you don't obgect.

i liked minecraft classic terrain so beautiful...

@Seth_reed: That's my point. Better than I could get it across. Thanks!
@everyone: I think we can agree that jungles need to get redone.

No. Jungles are one of the best biomes.

Personally, I don't "hate" the current terrain generation. It's ok. But I do like the terrain of the old early beta versions. The terrain was smooth and clean, lots of variety between the biomes, and beaches were very nice. Plus, the ocean terrain looked a lot nicer compared to what we have today (smoothed out, nicer looking terrain composed of dirt, compared to today's ocean terrain, which is extremely hilly, and composed of blotches of dirt/sand/clay that hurt your eyes to look at).
To be honest, I'd love to see something like in "Better World Generation 4"s default terrain. That's how it should look. Keeps the vanilla biomes, but adds lots of variety to the land, and makes everything look nice and neat. Though, I probably won't lose any sleep over it if Mojang decides never to change the terrain, haha.

Personally, if you want flat flat land, use super flat land, but there should be more biomes. Jungle here.. snow there.. meh. I know it was there, and I have nothing new to enjoy. Someplace maybe there's emeralds too, instead of just in extreme hills? A nicer place I'd like to see, like a common biome from extreme biomes mod maybe?
1
Most of us agree that the generator needs fixing, but we can't decide what about it. I've heard thatr 1.6 will overhaul all of the biomes. I don't know the new biomes, as the rumor is not detaildled enough. Post your comments on this.
1
If you want to live in a more varied environment, push F3 and start looking for ForestHills, TaigaHills, SnowHills, and similar Hill biomes. Not only are they hilly (duh), they usually contain ravines, lots of the larger oak trees, dirt archways, and sometimes things I call sinkholes (pits in the ground slightly covered in floating dirt). For an example of a ForestHills biome use the seed 20, my personal favorite seed.
1
I have yet to believe Minecraft's terrain generation is "boring". You can never have too many caves, hills, and mountians. You can have too many jungle biomes though....

@Gypsi: Thanks!
Also, the pics of custom terrain is not what we want. But some of the hills are good examples for mojang.

your right, the caves are to big and there are to many of them, also i miss the beaches you used to spawn like in 1.7ish, in fact i preferred the 1.7ish world seeds more than what we got now

Well, Minecraft terrain is good, where you turn a corner and see a floating island, but I'd like to see a mountain again and at least some forest on those hills.

Why does everyone hate on jungles?
1
The terrain is always pissing me off.
All I want is to find a big, flat area to build a Village on and a smaller island nearby to build my house on. Yet all I find is these damn caves!
So, basically, I have the opposite problem. I keep finding things all the time, like Mineshafts.
And I'm also getting so sick, of these, damn stupid, Jungles and snow Biomes!
I don't think I'm going to get my dreamworld even started...

To those thinking the terrain is boring and/or repetitive perhaps you need to take a break from the game? People expect so much from something that started so simple. But that is what happens with a player base as massive as minecraft, more people complaining rather then praising.

Boring worlds except if you strike REALLY LUCKY which I am not.
Also, I was listening to the radio just now, and some guys were talking about it being possible to bring back dinosaurs and one said, "We can bring back dinosaurs, but should we?" and I screamed NO NO GOD NO GO AND WATCH JURASSIC PARK NOW!
Sorry that wasn't relevant but I just felt the need to share it

I've been playing 1.2.5, and I have already got bored of Minecraft's algorithm. I think Mojang should scrap it and start it again, with a bit more adventure this time. I mean, I spawn in a Jungle every freakin' time!

@reer: Backdating is not the solution. It's a temporary solution.

Then Why Don't you go code a minecraft.jar into your liking and then play that and update it as minecraft updates?

I Hate da terrain it makes my wanna
Just get a beta.jar Simply solution

I think the terrain is boring because all the hills and mountains are the same.
We need TALL mountains with snow covered peaks and jungle villages and random things like dessert crevice biomes, and rainforests, and amazing things like that.
