They added redstone-activating geysers with the lava mechanic! I’m glad they listened to folks asking for this.

Actual multiplayer on java edition?? FINALLY. What took them so long? Now make an official way to crossplay with bedrock.

This is pretty massive for multiplayer ngl!
Also “With Lava underneath, the Geyser eruption is continuous, but with slightly muted sounds compared to the eruption from a Magma block” WE WON!

Friends List is huge for Java Edition. Do tell me again how Mojang/Microsoft is hell bent on killing Java Edition in favour of Bedrock Edition, I’m keen to hear the theories.

So the multiplayer is kind of how essential works? if that’s the case then it’s great news

Sad there’s no complete blockset for cinnabar and sulfur but friends stuff like p2p is huge and redstone people will love the lava geyser.

Goodbye essentials mod, you will not be missed.

This update is really looking good now. Almost as if people were jumping the gun when this update was announced.

“We’re feature complete, but here’s a bonus snapshot that has more new content than the snapshot where all we did was add granite and tuff to the caves, which we then revoked after you all said it was ugly”
I’m happy that geysers are more controllable and that we did get a new disc, but Mojang’s not beating the poor communication allegations anytime soon
Missed opportunity to make Bounce a drop from sulfur cubes somehow, but it at least encourages you to explore mineshafts. Guess I’ll give Mojang some points for acknowledging an older feature like that

This new disc is so chill I love it

Only 17 years to add multiplayer, the indie project is now closer to an actual finished game product!

Great for the friends list, Essential really needed to die

I like how they said feature complete and then did the biggest snapshot of the drop lol (with the exception of the first one maybe)

And yet some people think they will drop Java soon..
That friends feature is great 🙂

integrated p2p online is a crazy feature to get without any fanfare. could be a new era of playing minecraft with friends if it works well

Hosting worlds online is huge. Massive improvement, hopefully it still works if you’re playing with mods.
Now Java just needs controller support and split-screen!!

P2P is an enormous win

Player controllable geysers is huge news. Excited about the cool redstone contraptions we will see after this
I also like the fact that the new music disc is found in mineshafts at sulfur caves. It’s a simple way to make players to explore old structures. Hope they keep doing it with discs, patterns, trims and so on.
Still have my issues regarding sulphur and cinnabar but it ended being a solid drop

I love how they said they were done with new features in this drop and yet here we are with Friends List. This is incredible. It’s also really nice that we got a new disc and that geysers can now be turned on manually. This update went from cool to great. Also Minecraft Live at TwitchCon… I wonder what they’re planning to tease there.

My only worry about this is what it might do to smaller servers

New music disc specifically for the biome and manual geysers? W snapshot

Is the p2p feature invite and request only? Sounds like you cant have an open and joinable world without accepting an invite or sending a request to join?

Someone suggests renewability of cinnabar. This is the only big but unnoticeable problem on this upcoming update.
The only legitimate obtainability of this block is through mining it on this specific cave biome. This poses problem for old and explored worlds, servers with bordered world, and superflat.

Peer to Peer play without the need for port forwarding a LAN world or paying for a server / realm is going to completely explode accessibility for casual players to be able to play with their friends.
This might be one of the most important non-content updates to the game since The Flattening.

This is a big feature to randomly drop

The lava source block causing continuous eruption was something I had suggested lol. Also essential is completely dead (e4mc too probably).

P2P‽ Holy crap!
So much for the people complaining this is a small and pointless drop
