I'm loving this update, the moment it dropped. I however hated all the issues we had to deal with, yet finally glad I can finally dive into the update to have some fun. Each seed I chose had its nice fun share of water additions to it, as well as nice beaches. Constant testing & experimenting made me love this update even more.

I'm highly amused with the seed I shared to both Zork & Red51 showing me spawn right at a double-sided beach peninsula with a cherry tree behind the player's back. It's awesome. Think I'm going to keep spawn as is because it's so awesome. Even finding my spawn highly 'ironic' or 'coincidental' with how I used one of the KanColle sayings to spawn right at the water, as if it's asking for water also. "Nightmare of Solomon's" catch word worked wonders for me . We now need KanColle.

Love being at the beach, plus the item you added. Wish I could make use of that item. That, and it reminds me of both Tucepi (Croatia) & Varadero (Cuba) with the beach styles.

The second link is from earlier when I was testing Open Lan & such, wishing I had boats or could fish. First link is more recent.

Thank you, Red51! I think I'm going to build seriously in this game now I'll rebuild Niska Village, and then some more.

Alright, too many issues with it that we'll have to wait till Thursday, or so. Basically something big enough to fix all the big issues we have going on. It's a great update, just that our impatience forced Red51 to push it all out. All our combined impatience allowed these numerous bugs & glitches to occur.

The whole "older worlds" not converting properly to newer worlds, the whole invisible wall with players not registered, the square barriers, & open lan not really working. Or even freezing on the loading screen with it locking up any other program on it. It's all a mess which is muddying the lovely neat new addition to the game. Poor Red51 having to deal with all these issues.

Well aware that [coding is a pain & such]. Just something to bring back to attention as to give survival players something to do. I can wait for it in the next few updates, or so.

Alright, guess we're still going to wate on the water so I guess it's time to hit the Youtube + deal with KanColle's daily quest in about 10 minutes (4pm est) for the typical daily quest resets.

I'm sure its more of a "no more time" situation rather that not considering it. Based on previous discussions on this forum, there is supposed to be a option to place water in creative mode. I imgagine placing water blocks with buckets might become a thing some day but I just hope its not so easily exploitable as the infinite water trick in Minecraft. Creative mode would be the exception where creating lakes would be easy.

I agree with you there. But ya, I was thinking more of what I saw in the 'Feed the Beast' modpacks for Minecraft where water generates in certain areas. Basically things like rain-catchers, humidity stuff, and anything where Rising World could even regain water from watermelons & such, after filtering it.

The talk of having to manually place water in creative is making me now wanting to vent at Red51 for not considering adding a water generation type device for survival players to floor their own canals. Again, a rain catcher, humidity catcher/generation, and such. Some sort of water generation to then 'bucket' back into canals and such.

Ya, it's tomorrow (12:45 am). If I'm forced to wait, then you guys can wait also. When I return to my PC I should be able to just pop open Rising World to then dive into water

Oh, I guess I should also start plotting & planning how to do canals if water is nearby Niska, or just for the fun of it. Sandblocks & all, or whatever. When the time comes we'll see what I'll do.

We're lucky Red has a team of 3 + some freelancers & a new guy. I'm actually loving Rising World more over this 'Astral Tera' game, and such. What I got used to, and what we shall get used to some more once water hits.

And was told we're not getting boats so I'm now raging. It'll be bundled with player models, which is indeed wise but that's my impatience talking. Lots of nice goodies to look forward to, even not water related. Or so I was told......

"But I want it this week! I don't want any extra features! Want it all buggy, AND I WANT IT NOW!" *bangs keepboard hard* "Give me it now! now, now NOW! You don't have to polish it because it's complete already!"

>insert wall of text saying why having water update now helps them sleep better at night + how games shouldn't be held back by simply released day one as it's white-washing the developers & why the world is red<

How about ComputerCraft and OpenComputers concept from modded minecraft in those you can make a script or even a program to play youtube videos and music and much more.

Ya, but no. Minecraft is dead to me now thanks to Rising World. I'm done with Minecraft, even trying to defend it, and all that. Same with poorly calling Princessgoddamnit a "hypocrite'. I'm just 100% done with Minecraft that I'd rather keep to Rising World now. Every time I play Minecraft now I just want to play Rising World. Also, I can't script so that's also out.

You've got my vote on both fronts. Both the modern & viking era. Luckily we can get these added in, yet Red51 has to find time to add them in after the crazy water update. Variety like this is awesome

Will I be able to finally boat around in a wooden or papyrus boat also?

This is something I"m trying to push into the game with higher functionality than Minecraft. Basically taking lessons from the following games:

• 'Grand Theft Auto 3' to 'Grand Theft Auto 5' - The radio feature on PC which allows you to dump your music files in to stream.
• Second Life: It allowed you to script a TV/Computer object to reach Youtube to then play any video you could think of.
• Euro Truck Simulator 2 & American Truck Sim: The radio function when you press 'R" to either listen to your own music, or music from the internet. It allows you to listen to radio influenced by Europe; North American for American Truck Sim.
• Phantasy Star Online 2: There's a jukebox item where you can register music discs to scroll through to select a track. You collect seasonal/event discs to then be able to play them at any time for both you & your buddies. Anybody can hear it blasting.
• Star Wars Galaxies: More of a player thing, yet players could play instruments. You could have your character be healed by entertainers that dance or play music while also hearing the typical Star Wars cantina music. Should seek out SWGemu, or similar.

Another idea was to have sheet music you could enter notes onto for the piano, and other instruments, to play music on their own. This would compete heavily with Minecraft's noteblocks, as well as have something for you to enjoy on your way back from somewhere.

Another idea was to have NPC musicans auto-playing instruments for those 'cantina' (think Star Wars episode 1 [now episode 4] with the Cantina scene) for when you build relaxing Saloons, cafes, restaurants, and etc. Something to enjoy for more immersive & scenic side of things. I however had an idiot, or a few, mock this idea that I'm still hating them on it by bringing a stupid clown idea into the mix in hateful mocking, yet feel this would suit Rising World nicely (again in competition with redstone & noteblocks) with a more ''lively" living in mood.

If anybody here has played either 'Star Wars Galaxies' [Cantina + instruments] or 'Phantasy Star Online 2' [Jukebox with collectible music discs; Everybody can hear & share their own] then they also should know where I'm coming from, and where I"m going with this

Alright, I finally FINALLY managed to make a video about Rising World. Not the best, yet it's indeed finally a start to something I wanted to do for a long while. I finally did a 'rushed' tour of Niska, briefly brought up why I'm looking forward to the water update, and just messed with re-upping posters.

Rising World - Niska - Ep 0:

(Ep 0 because it's a 'Prologue' & 'Intro' video again to spark interest. I'm going to try for a second video trying to settle down somewhere in the new water update + seeing how it effects Niska Village & the Kitsu world. Two worlds, something I implied, yet never mentioned. Video is also rough around the edges because of Sony Vegas disliking my version of .mp4.)

Stupid jokes aside, I now had a dream I think I can tag on Rising World. Nothing special though as it was more nostalgia oriented.

[Lebreton Flats 'Google Maps'] - [Lebreton Flats image]

In my dream I'm basically revisiting this unused & highly ignored piece of valuable land as an ex-oil area. Basically for ores & oil. All those loose noodle oil pipes (Still iron, if rusted), rusted pipes, overgrown weeds, trees and such. Just a sign that I've been there, took the resources, and then decided to come back much later in a form of nostalgia while treating the land as the previous owners. Was a re-dream from an alternate POV also with me recalling what 'we' did, and what I was about to do. Even though it was a dream I was going to go back to build something more elegant on it.

About this dream, I always had ideas of fictionalizing it of having a digital Ottawa in some RPG open-world game, or similar, where I would just claim the land as my own and build a giant white tower on it. Basically a white (& red as trim) tower representing power, rebellious behavior, as well as a museum to show how lazy Canadians are in the Ottawa section; Displaying my own pride in it. [Ottawa] always wanting to be arrogant over doing what's genuinely fun. For my tower I had thought of ways to connect to various transport networks, as well as some alternate ideas of leisure, and a mini-library. Sadly, Ottawa is not modeled out so I can't go all 'Sim City' on the side. I can however base my designs in ways to mock my real-life city for my own city whenever I get to city building in this game, also connecting to my dream

Sorry for hi-jacking, just that this thread is appropriate for this kind of postings now.

Ya, just a same new hard drive, windows 10, external DVD reader, & a new processor. It's running smoothly now, and I hope it stays that way 3+ months. It needs to hold out for so much longer. I shouldn't have paid that much, yet I did. Also, everything runs smoothly again.

Now, where's my water update? I'm 100% ready again

I hate being an idiot when it comes to computers. Dropped $408 onto this damn hard drive, windows, processor/CPU, & such yet I'm now able to play Rising World. I'm however on a new operating system (Win 10) so my errors shall be slightly different. Now, let's get water so I can dream Rising World

And now that we jested about it, I want to now make a U-Boat monument of some sort when we get swamps, either with a model, scaleable model/replica, or similar. Whatever works.

I'm on that fine line where I both support & don't that it's tricky explaining where I'm at. (Minecraft wise)

I love vanilla, and I love the mods, yet I hate Mojang themselves for treating their IP so lazily. Playing purely vanilla was equally as fun (up to second 1.8) as much as playing mods; Modders obviously adding what Minecraft missed. The boats again, and our unified thoughts on how horses should allow for transport & multi-passenger capabilities pointing out what is at fault on vanilla side, at a glance. Mojang right now is stick in a cycle of confusion that they appear to be smoking too much weed while considering adding these odd features. The forumer here named @yxa proving/echoing exactly what they did as a bandaid fix.

We can also agree that Rising World is far superior now because it learned exactly what's wrong with Minecraft while going on its own route-paving manner. I have to however nudge Red51 in various places, yet it's going in a generally awesome manner. Was able to get nice features into the game (i.e chickens, block id, fixed sewers) with more hopefully on the way (i.e NPCs on roaming & recruiting side) that would help things. I also damn well hope this game take a direct chunk out of the Minecraft market. More so after finding out how small the Wiiu version was, and how drone-like the community is on there defending it. Seeing Xenoblade had me facepalm how small Minecraft was for it.

Red51, you have my full support. I'm still going to harp about boats until we get one

Such moronic timing, and I had this computer for a good 2-3 months. It makes me furious. It should have happened a year or two later. Not now, too soon.

Ya, numerous errors that it wouldn't boot up the hard drive at all. Something either ate it, or it just out-right died. Freezes up on the windows logo, or even just fails to boot all together. It won't boot up. I also did something stupid of damaging the processor pins so that also needs to get fixed. I'm cursing up something worse than a storm. Now waiting to get it diagnosed or fixed where I bought it at.

Would you be exploring the swamp biomes in a u-boat? Going to wage war on alligators?

When I first started to play Minecraft, I had near nighly dreams about exploring blocky landscapes. it was a lot of fun. I miss playing Minecraft and I almost started it up last night. i have an old server I used to run that I wouldnt mind spinning up again on my Linode box. I saw some videos of Feed the Beast and do admit that it looks cool. I wouldn't mind giving that one a shot too. But once water hits next week, I can assure you that not even Doom 4 will keep me away from Rising World. Ofcourse the $60 price tag and the need for a new video card helps.

If they attack me, then yes. I'd wage war with them in a lovely U-Boat. There are U-boat wreckages found in various rivers around the world so that's something to note.

Nightly Minecraft dreams were fun. More so with Youtubers you never hang out with in real life doing various Minecrafty things. Even the odd dream of digging underground in that grim-dark manner that only dreams can render. That dark vibe you get. You have fun with them in dreams because they won't pay attention to you in real life, for obvious reasons. You need to be as big as them to gain attention.

My computer broke so I can' play Rising World, or any other game so I now need to get that fixed. My hard drive won't boot up so I'm now having to shell out more money to fix it. I'm obviously furious so I'm now going to be MIA until that's fixed, or lurking when bored. We'll see. If the water update comes out soon then I'm highly screwed T_T. Life is so unfair. My computer is being so unfair.

ArcticuKitsu - Boats in minecraft is no more so fragile, they fix it in 1.9+ other bugs with boat fixed too.
YakMe - yes no one can take chest on a horse, but you can put chest on a donkey, and it was when horse appear!

Ya, they did & I said that......either on here or steam. Hard to know now. They did make it invincible, yet still treating it like a piece of crap. It's an after thought to them. They shrunk the ocean, made the boat invincible, yet failed to add variety to them, similar to railway & horses. You can't carry another person, nor can you store stuff on it. They just don't care about the game, nor the boat.

Edit: You guys keep shitting on Minecraft Vanilla, yet it still has it's fun points. I was still able to have loads of fun with vanilla, yet you need to be on SMP for the full experience. Even so, I'm now impatiently still waiting for Rising World's water update. I'm now done ater being spoiled by Rising World.
