Talk:Java Edition upcoming features

To do
Okay. When I proposed this page, I had something very great in mind but this article feels very lacking. I do not have the time and dedication to do it right now but I thought I should leave some hints on how this page should be. An example is in the RS Wiki: http://runescape.wikia.com/wiki/Upcoming_updates

The reason I wanted this page was so that the semi-confirmed upcoming updates, which might have very little information on how it will turn out and without a good timeframe. Some of these pages are Adventure, Zombie Siege, Capture the Flag, Realistic Mode, Pigman, Trap Block, Scarecrow and Lantern. This will avoid useless stubs which might be left in this Wiki forever if they are not implemented at all.

Also, there should be a more specific mob section, where we can then take them out from the mobs page, instead of just a general "More mobs" statement. Updates which have been implemented should be removed, instead of letting them linger around here.

This is just a suggestion, and hopefully someone with enough dedication will make this article turn into something great. --Scykei 09:46, 26 February 2011 (UTC)

Wolf
Are you sure the release date is April 1st? I hope nobody's lying. I'll blow up like a Creeper if anyone's lying. R ocĸetor talk  06:30, 28 March 2011 (UTC)

*flees* :O Yea, the date seems to have been removed. I really hope they fix the 2-5 minute SMP delay in the next update... It makes SMP nearly unplayable :( --Zkyo 13:11, 29 March 2011 (UTC)

That's alright. An extra two days is fine at the max. R ocĸetor talk  05:54, 30 March 2011 (UTC)

Note: Sorry Zkyo, they are pretty much only focusing on Singleplayer. R ocĸetor talk  06:02, 30 March 2011 (UTC)

Inventory default key
It will take a 100 years to get used to the new key.

So change it in the controls menu ._. --Zkyo 13:08, 29 March 2011 (UTC)

Pistons
I was watch a YouTube on the Mincecraft modification 'Pistons', which allows the player to shoot eachother or sand and gravel into the air. With floating blocks, it will push the block up one and leave it there. Now the creator of this mod was asked by Jeb_ if he would like to post it for future ideas. So the creator did this, and since Jeb_ asked him to submit it, it may well be a candidate for a future update. --R ocĸetor talk  20:26, 6 April 2011 (UTC)

Booster Tracks
Jeb tweeted that Booster Tracks will be added to the game today. I wanted to add this to the page, but I don't know how to quote a single tweet. Somebody help me out please! Metonymia 20:22, 9 April 2011 (UTC) Metonymia

Occlusion Culling?
What is occlusion culling and what effect would it have in game?


 * Occlusion culling is basically one method for not rendering stuff that isn't seen (because it's behind other stuff that *is* seen). It should speed up the game by a decent amount (in theory, at least). 「 ダイノ ガイ 千？！ 」? · ☎ Dinoguy1000 04:21, 15 April 2011 (UTC)

At far and normal viewing distances, It doubles your FPS! The disavantage is that if you turn rapidly your mouse, you may see "empty" zones.
