Minecraft 1.18 - Candles cancel creeper parties?!

Finally more ways to avoid creepers.

this is not a criticism: to be fair now i'm using more torches than ever to light everything up xD since all the caves are so mesmerizingly big i find myself swarmed every 5 seconds with mobs. it's like living inside a spawner. it's so much fun!

Alex: [rudely smacks a Spider that was just minding its' own business]
Spider: Understandable have a nice day

Best update yet. Exploring the new caves left my friends and I breathless and super hyped.

For the Wild update please make Piggys roll around in the new mud blocks like in Minecraft Earth 🤞🤞

This update managed to make both sides (the adventurous players and building players) REALLY HAPPY

Wow, I had no idea about the large ore veins, that clearly passed me by in the snapshots.
I love it, though. The idea of having a huge mine specifically for collecting iron is so fun to me.

I love the addition of ore veins, and the fact that mobs now can only spawn in zero light is so awesome, we kept getting random mobs in our bases and now that problem is gone

Love love love the lush caves I've been seeing. I'm tempted to light up entire underground areas to build cities in.

Hi Mojang! question-could u make different types of foxes beside from the snowy fox and the regular fox? maybe a desert fox, oceon fox(idk a mermaid), I think that would be COOL.

The new generation is breathtaking, the people of Mojang out did themselves with this update.

I love, love, LOVE the lighting change. Now it's actually dark where mobs spawn, not kinda dim. I can get rid of half the torches littering my floors now : )

I love these new updates to the game, they have made it so muh more fun to play, and explore in the new terrains and stuff. cant wait for the deepslate citys with wardens and sculc blocks

an idea that occurs to me is to eliminate the generation of lava on the surface and put volcanoes or move lava pools near mountains

All I ask for is just to release the bundles, they were so cool! You just need to replace rabbit hide with leather in the crafting recipe

Playing 1.18 makes me feel like i'm once again 13 years old and playing Minecraft for the first time. Every minute is filled with excitement and joy of exploration. Thank you, mojang developers, for all your amazing work!

One of my favorite changes to Minecraft was the change in light leveling mob spawning.

We need more weapons and armor. I love the caves and cliffs but more weapons and more armors would really overhaul Minecraft.

I love you Nir, the mobs spawning i think was the most huge update to me for building with less light but no hostile mobs.

I love the New Caves. they are so huge and breathtaking to be in and explore.

Minecraft devs are absolutely INSANE. This new terrain generation (caves cliffs etc) seems absolutely unreal. 10+ years of playing this game and this seems like a mod or something, all just a custom map. This will change Minecraft forever and this is probably one of the most game changing update so far, and I'm willing to say that as how it's just right in your face, it'll completely change how the game LOOKS. Nonetheless I'm beyond excited to say the least.

voces planejam adicionar mobs hostis sem ser o warden na 1.19 ?

The mob spawning change is absolutely amazing, hugely appreciated

I really like, and appreciate the new lighting, and ore mechanics. The ore veins are much closer to real life. Now, if we could just have ores glistening, in the light, and fix the directional lighting, from the sun, and moon. LOL Thanks for the video.

The thing with this update is that it makes caving so much more dangerous and with the new mob in 1.19 i think they should add a new friendly mob that protects the owner or upgrade the wolfs ai and stats.

What the devs have done is very impressive. The game still feels like vanilla minecraft, but compared to 5 years ago I would never have imagined the game becoming as in-depth as it is today.

I love how open and honest the minecraft team is

It's taking some getting used to the way fewer mobs nowadays, the game's feel has certainly changed and almost feels a little too relaxed because they used to keep you on your toes. I expect the Warden will be the balance to the fewer mobs though.

I love the fact they changed light levels, that’s my fav thing ever

I absolutely LOVE the change to hostile mob spawning. For many years the game has felt like torch-craft; spamming torches everywhere to keep mobs from spawning.

The fact that mobs can now only spawn at light level 0, also means that huge caves, which are in complete darkness when you first enter them, can now be lit up more easily. I don't know if that was one of the reasons you made this decision, but it's a welcome one nonethless. Nobody enjoys fighting entire armies of mobs when you're just trying to get resources.

the light level change is my favourite one of this update because you can now have dark areas which are safe. it's a nice feeling being able to have a dark corridor in your home which you know won't ever spawn a skeleton

The new terrain generation is spectacular! Thank you devs.

Thanks for developing and adding awesome updates to the never ending world of Minecraft guys!

Honestly, the generation is absolutely gorgeous, but my favorite thing might just be the light level change!

Really like the idea of large ore veins. You can make a mine semi-permanently based around a vein, which is pretty realistic and cool.

You should make a mob in the deep dark where it slowly moves at you when you look at it but when you look away it dashed at you and attacks you insanely fast but with really low damage. I think it would be really cool

Hostile mobs spawn at complete darkness was a great move, now player wont have to surround their base with torches.

Hey I had a question with the new update we have scene 2 new mushrooms it seems; the birch forest concept art which seems to be a shelf mushroom, and from the swamp a darker mushroom. could fungi be something new agriculture in 1.18. And in one of the concept images of the swamp I saw a lily pad with a flower on it and maybe could we see different sized lily pads with it?

I love the lighting change! I have quite a big area for a base and mobs always spawn there. I just went around my land lighting up any spots I could see that looked super dark. It really helps!

The new update was dope! Minecraft feel like a completely new game!

That lighting change for mob spawns really helps with my large scale builds. Don't need remotely as many lights.

My favorite part of this update is that you can now stack campfires

I am loving all the new content, I wish there was a way to make a proper mineshaft elevator though where you could raise and lower not only players but chests and mine carts.

i adore the developers of minecraft they seem like they are genuinely having fun
thank you mojang for all you do :)

The lighting was a fine feature to add since I do not like placing lights everywhere in my house ruining the build

lighting changes just makes the game easier so it could be done so that on easy mode light level of 0 is required for hostile mobs to spawn and hardmode could be the same as 1.17 and previous

You guys are doing a great job. Keep doing it!

The best update ever...i was so stunned when i first loaded up a world and i spawned infront of this beatiful mountain view.

The update seems so cool! And their adding different layered mountains right??!

In my humble opinion, barring the storage issue, 1.18 is the biggest quality of play update I’ve experienced. Great work you guys and thank you for all your hard work and passion.

🤗This update is legendary and I hope more resources and monsters will be added

Thank you for the light upgrade. I always litter my base with torches but it's never enough.

This update is insane sadly I have a low end pc so it's hard to play for me but overall amazing update

I think it should only be for creepers to have this or mob should spawn at different light levels not all the same

I’m really happy about the lighting change because of cave bases

Looove this outro with the original music and sound effect so much! Switching things up is fun, but be sure to keep this around as well, so deeply "minecrafty"

So excited to play this update!! Even more excited for them to release a 1.18 Optifine so that my dinky lil computer can actually handle the new land generation lol

So awesome!! The boat glitch and other bugs are gone! Already!? You guys are the absolute best💙

Suggestion:
(You don't have to consider it but it would be amazing to be honest!)
Adding the combat update to bedrock in the form of maybe experimental features so that bedrock can have stuff that java has so both versions are even closer together!

Thank you for making this game. Let's make minecraft great again...Let's go mojang

So that's the genius we have to thank for making unorthodox lighting viable. Thank you!

Minecraft has evolved so much... Keep it up Mojang!

I like the fact that raw iron blocks can naturally spawn

This update brought me back to Minecraft. I'm very satisfied with all the changes. And the world generations are beautiful.

lighting used to be the absolute hardest thing to do in builds because of how easily mobs could spawn. You could never have dim-lit bases for the aesthetic purpose because it would mean a ton of mobs would spawn in. I'm glad they changed this.

When i had my own house on Minecraft, some bats really spawn and even Hostiles except having Torches or Candles inside my rooms

The hostile mobs only spawning in light level 0 and the 128 extra blocks of build height are 2 of the best changes to builds in years.

Im so happy with the light changes because this means i can finally build a village without having hostile mobs spawning everywhere

Essa atualização foi uma das melhores da mojang

i think the best thing that all of the ogs love is the mob spawning it may make farms difficult, but at least everyone will be safer (especially when playing hardcore) thank you so much mojang! you did really well on this update it will probably be our favorite one so far!

I think this is the best update ever. The terrain generation is breathtaking and ads so much to the exploration aspect of the game. It also inspires more creativity. Well done devs.

I was wondering if you would add bunny holes or bunny dens in the fields with a lot of flowers whatever u call it, it would really be cool wouldnt it?

I was also skeptical of the ore veins, I thought they'd be similar to fossils in desserts. However, I found an iron ore vein in my new world and it was really exciting! the huge caves make them easier to spot, so you actually have a chance to find one. I love it!

Actually i loove the new torches, now my mines and that stuff looks more bright

Now we just need the combat 2.0 update to add duel welding and other weapon effects.

I still wish the iceologer was added. At least the glow squid is really cool :3

Its missing one thing and its magic. They already added enchanting anyway which is considered a type of magic

I've honestly been waiting for this update since the Minecraft Beta.
1.18 is such a fundamentally solid update and I think it lays a foundation for tons of possible future updates that couldn't previously be implemented.
Well done, Mojang! 10/10

1.18 feels like its modded and vanilla at the same time. The game finally feels like something that could be the most popular game of all time, not just a thrown together indie dev game with a bunch of patchwork content updates

You should add some goblins to the caves and mountians some you can trade with and some that steal

I was recently working on a giant aquarium build that I stopped because figuring out how to light it up was too much of a struggle for me. Perhaps I can actually finish it when this update goes live.

I played and thought ore was too easy to find BUT I think it just seems that way cos the caves just so dang big

The cave spelunking was an absolute blast! Seeing the cave entrances just keep going deeper was so fun to explore. Really loved this update!

Wow! That with the mob spawning is really cool I think. Amazing!

Wait WHAT?! Over 1000 ore in ONE VEIN?! That's INSANE! Mojang has really out done themselves

Awesome to see you guys being so passionate about the Game

Haven't been heavily into minecraft since maybe 2014 but still occasionally played, I've put more time in since this update than maybe ever before. Everyone else has already said it but this update was absolutely astounding.

Absolutely loving the new spawning and generation. Nailed this update. Can't wait for the deep dark and more RPG/progression related updates in the future too.

Mining has always been my favorite thing to do in Minecraft, thank you ^^

Thanks to the powder snow and the cliffs update Guerilla warfare is actually effective

This was a great stream!

I remember people saying that when microsoft took over the game would die but the game massively improved by miles. It's really amazing what they did with the game.

I cannot even BEGIN to express how excited I am about the spawning changes... Those changes mean that we can FINALLY have ambient/mood lighting in our survival builds without fear of getting drop-kicked by a creeper on our way home!! Easily one of the best updates this game has ever seen, and I look forward to all of the amazing fixes and features coming in both the hotfix as well as 1.19!

i absolutley love this update tbh. the only things km sad about is loss of amplified, floating islands, and the plains biome being flatter than most places. when they added cliffs *They Added Cliffs*
still fun tho

I love seeing the way minecraft keeps innovating itself and how the people at mojang really consider what they add and take away in minecraft. Not only is the game loveable but the people that work on it are too

"Making Mining more interesting"
My head: they should probably make some rewarding loot with traps like in desert temple *TERRARIA BOULDER FLASHBACKS*

WOW Minecraft was already amazing and now *can’t even say how amazing it is*

This update just solved the problem of mob spawning even in a house with enough light.
So great.

I want an anti-torch that expels negative light levels now.
