There's a Pre-Release Version of the adventure update available now!

It's quite buggy (and extremely laggy :D), but you can download it here (http://www.minecraftforum.net/topic/611468-want-to-play-18-early-heres-how/)

Haven't found any NPC villages yet though, maybe they're just in the actual 1.8 release.

Don't put it on a mountain, there's no room for the castle village! :(

Also, those huge mountain ranges seem a bit overdone, and it's all still quite buggy.. (especially with the lighting and chunk loading) but those new river/wetlands/grass plains/rain forest/swamp biomes are awesome though! but STILL NO VILLAGES/RUINS!

I've also tried to log in again with 1.7.3, but it says an error with the code: 503 for logging in on minecraft.net/game/joinserver.jsp.. does this mean they're patching right now?

yeah,

minecraft.net is down, has been for hours.


we havent put the castle on a mountain, although theres a mountain range nearby.


also a lovely desert, and a swamp, and a river, and a pumpkin!

I didn't see any village or river yet, but except for that i can't complain :D

I was watching my cousin play it last night, he found rivers, ravines, village, abandoned mineshaft, lots of blue spiders, and I love the way the lighting works in 1.8

I killed an enderman with one hit of a stone pickaxe... they seem to be pretty weak o.O

what's wrong with spawn location?

Jackster21

strongholds are within a 400 block radius of coords 0,0,0

the lightning is fucking epic,
and endermon are stupidly weak, although still scary. xD

*endermon dies*
