So what the title describes is exactly my question. What is you're opinions on 1.8? Personally I am NOT excited because I used a standard windows 7 home computer. And everytime MC updates I get lower frames. Such as 1.6 I had 60 FPS and now I get 35 and below,but I do love the things being added into MC such as the new underwater maze. So what do you guys think? Whats you're favorite or least favorite part about 1.8?

To clear things up about name changes Mojang said that it's not decided fully about how it's going to work and they understand the worries people have. So basically dont worry because Mojang knows what they're doing and there will probably be some kind of ID system (I dunno just guessing.) or a way servers can moderate it.

I'll actually be kinda sad when 1.8 comes out. I've gotten used to the snapshots and waiting for 1.8 to come out and now I won't know what to do.

I seriously just can't wait until 1.8! It's so suspenseful, not knowing any full release date.

Jeb said that you could only change like once every 4 months to make sure people don't mistreat it

I think Jeb or Mojang said that if someone gets banned from a server, then changes their username, they'll still be banned.


I know that. The point I'm making is I don't like the idea of users freely changing their name.

Say you have a semi RP server with raiding allowed. Jimbob goes and kills Frank, and steals his stuff. Then, Jimbob goes and changes his name to coolminer69. Frank now has no idea that its the same guy, and thus can't get the revenge he desperately seeks.

Mojangs recent EULA thing complained about unfair advantages, then they go and add this with no way for servers to disable it. I'm hoping there'll be a nice bukkit plugin to force the original username.

I think that the name changes could be interesting, but meh.

I think you actually can only change it so many times, maybe

No one gonna mention the fact that blocks can be remodelled now...?
(Only read page 1. Sue me)

EDIT:
I'm -NOT- looking forward to name changes. It's gonna really annoy me that kids will just change their name every day and log back into your server because "dey r ubEr trols trololool".
Bad move IMO. They should've opted for an official op-based /nick command instead, with a config option to allow it to all users in the server.properties. Obviously single-player doesn't matter.

i think the only thing i dont like is the new mob (the guardian, not the endermite) because it looks so op and honestly drowning and the ocean scares me so much so im getting anxious even by thinking about the underwater temple, and im not much into the new enchanting system tbh but the rest looks pretty cool

The only problem would be with servers banning system.

So your on your favorite server but someone just stole and briefed your home. Grinders aren't allowed but how did this person get on. It was a different username but the skin was the same as the last time. You just lost all of that stuff to well someone who was already banned.
The name changes should be like sent to the banning programs to change the banning name or something. And names changes should cost money real money.
Other than that... bunnies now just to be able to take them with carrots and breed pigs with potatoes.
Birds would be soon nice I'm thing of making a texture pack where the sky has birds in it just because minecraft needs birds or better sounds in the music but that's still my opinion.

Dinnerbone made it clear that everything will work like you never changed your username, either it be your plot or a ban.
For example:

JoeDoesScerpderp is banned for offence: Speaking different languages.

JDSD changes his name for short of his last name, JDSD.
He's still banned for the reason, "Speaking different languages"

I think it would be the same account, just another username. So if they were banned from your favorite server, they still wouldn't be able to get on. I think.

I do believe these are in the 1.8, along with the bunnies and sheep dropping food. That will be totally radical. .3. The thing I'm most excited for, though, is the name changes. Think about it. You were pretty young (or stupid/tired/whatever) when you made your minecraft username and it was something like "y0l0__sw4g" and you hate it. AND NOW. Instead of having to make another account, just poof! Your name is now changed to "ThePersonWhoDoesTheThing" or whatever you want it to be. o3o

Your welcome. I mean, it is possible it will come out in 1.8, or later. Like 1.9 or so. Hopefully 1.8 so this long wait is worth something.

I think the 1.8 will be a huge update, just like 1.7 and 1.8 beta were, but a lot bigger. The bunnies are awesome!

Not much of a fan of the 1.8 layer for skins, but I love the fact we can have different joints, but then we have the Cyclops Puffer Fish and Endermite, I'm happy, a live fish I can have for a fish tank. All I want to ask for now, is, well, nothing. Also, I'm happy that the oceans are going to be more.. exotic...
