Talk:Redstone Update

New Year's?
How can it be released in january and include new-years eve props? Which one of them is most likely to happen? 145.93.89.6 10:13, 27 November 2012 (UTC)
 * Simple: the New Year's Eve fireworks wouldn't be seen until next New Year's. But if that's planned, they'd probably have them in a weekly build out some time before New Year's Eve this year. --timrem 11:48, 27 November 2012 (UTC)

But first they stated after Christmas, so it may be added to this New Years Eve. metarmask  15:52, 27 November 2012 (UTC)

Crossbows?
Troagador 19:54, 28 November 2012 (UTC) Here's a post that explain most of the things they said at Future Updates with the Minecraft PC Team at Minecon "not planned" metarmask  15:51, 29 November 2012 (UTC) Troagador 11:47, 30 November 2012 (UTC) Yes, that's what I meaned. metarmask  13:34, 30 November 2012 (UTC)
 * This was uncited and I couldn't find anything anywhere to back it up, so I'm removing it until somebody finds citation.
 * I added that, im 100% sure Jens and Nathan said something about crossbows while they were answering questions.
 * Watch this video at 17:44, they mention something about it: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YG9RNyRhIow
 * I read the page you linked to, point five under the 'Discussion and Q&A Session' section reads: 'Discussion of ideas for Spear (longer reach) and Crossbow (rapid fire) - but not planned.' It looks like there are some ideas being thrown around, but nothing officially planned for the Redstone Update.

"Erring Miner"
I will be removing that from the page since it is a target for speculation, and a revert war is going on. If you want to put it back, please review this video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YG9RNyRhIow and post here what time in the video they mention it. That channel also hosts several recordings of MineCon, so feel free to find where "Erring Miner" is mentioned. "Erring Miner" will NOT go back up onto the page without a reference to prove it has been mentioned. 13:40, 1 December 2012 (UTC)

1.5 Snapshot?
Does any one know when the 1.5 snapshots are coming? I really want to try them out. 99.129.135.211 19:51, 4 December 2012 (UTC)

I don't know, but some of the features are BUDs and capacittors, which output power if they receive a specific strength of signal. I think they should also add a feature that can control the stren th of a redstone signal. Preceding unsigned comment was made by 72.83.187.63.Please sign your posts with ~

Redstone and coal blocks?
Coal and redstone are the most common materials from underground (except stone) and they can't be crafted into blocks. Most of Minecraft players want redstone and coal blocks in Minecraft. Woudn't it be better if there will be redstone and coal blocks?--Pan jouda 14:35, 24 December 2012 (UTC)
