This. Is. MINECRAFT! [v3]

Man, I haven't been keeping up with Minecraft lately. Guess I better check this out and see what's new.

Okay, game still runs like crap on this computer (constant stuttering and freeze ups, and this is just in single player), but I managed to check out some of the new stuff in creative mode just now.

I like the parrots.

I like that they added a recipe book to help with crafting, but it looks like you have to unlock recipes to get them first, and it seems like you either have to build the items to unlock the recipes for them, and/or they appear randomly? But yeah, given that you have to unlock them first makes it kind of pointless if you have no idea how to build it in the first place...

The new achievement system is...weird? Different? Not sure I like it...

I didn't see much, and I'm sure I'm missing a lot, so I'll have to actually play to see how I like and not like things (but given that the game still runs like crap...).

tpps.mcph.co should also work


Huh new launcher. Or at least I don't remember this one. Also there's a new update out, 1.12 the Colorful World Update.

New features include a new crafting system, a new function system, hints for beginners, glazed terracotta, concrete, colored beds, illusioners, and parrots.

Wait there is a new server?

No same one, just repeating the IP.

Three questions: Is our server still up? What game mode is it in? Can I invite a few of my IRL friends to it? One of them just asked "i payed 25 for a game that i have no clue how to even get started in lol"

You didn't tell him to punch a tree and figure the rest out from there?



It's been online since the last time someone mentioned to it and I've still been paying the upkeep. It's set to Hardcore though and the version is 1.9.4. I don't mind IRL friends being on it. It's not like they could destroy anything.

I kind of wanted to jump on the server together, kill him, then tell him that's how you play Minecraft. I wasn't sure if it was on hardcore mode or not, so I don't know if that would be such a good idea now (though, that would be even funnier if I told him once you die, you're banned for life ).

Is it possible to upgrade to the latest version of Minecraft? I think it was up to 1.12 or something like that last I checked.

Yeah give me a bit.

*may be on the server in a bit with a couple friends*

Edit: Ugh, like no fps right now... This should be fun...

Edit 2: Aaaaand the game crashed...hard...

Well let me check it real quick, then take a shower.

*has redownloaded Optifine in the meantime*

*has taken my shower and is currently trying to make Minecraft authenticate my account since I haven't touched the game in so long*

That sucks...

On the flip side, Optifine has completely fixed my game and it's running at 60+ to over 100+ FPS with no lag spikes so far! I've already got a small farm started on the server (got lucky and found a ton of chickens), plus I have a mineshaft in progress.
