Perfect improvement to the trees & grass. I love these version than the one before it. Much brighter & lush; Lots of moisture is being implied in the grass. More welcoming & happier.

Nice new selection for trees & food types. I'm amused that broccoli found its way in because I had to tend to that a few times with it being both icy & messy. Silly thing XD.

Also, can't wait to hear what this music sounds like and such, both in person in my own copy & in people's let's plays. Now can't wait for the biome. This was a wise idea to release this update.

OK, its 24th of September, one week till the end of a month and exactly one month after my first reminder... So, I want to remind Red and the family that we are one month older, and for a few pictures richer....

Red knows quite well that the biome update should be out. It didn't help Red had to deal with an idiotic child troll on the Steam forum that halted progress of the Biome update + having to deal with all the bugs, glitches, and all that lovely frustrating jazz. Just be patient. You'll get the update when it's genuinely ready to be out and played, unless you want a pile of shit update to complain about

We're all highly eager for such so we're going to be having a party when playing this, and eveyr other update. And don't ignore the small updates because they add onto the whole experience.

You have my vote because I want to tame an Arctic Fox to be my furry companion because it's a lonely world, even in SMP manner. I'd want him/her to join me & to also have the ability of feeding them. I don't mind being able to feed them & telling them to "stay", "sit', & to chase items.

Please! Please! Please allow me to tame an arctic fox

I support this idea because it's Rising World. Just need to keep it where it beeps, not X-ray or cheaty.

Oh, I'm loving this! Nice idea there. Wish I could visit you, yet might be wiser when it's all built up leading to all the other biomes. Interesting monument.

What's been mentioned above....

1) Updates: Waiting for more "long-term" features to make playing hours on end possible.
2) Distractions: Seems like a great portion of gamers are easily distracted by other games so they tend to get easily blown around by the wind. I've known some to have short attention spans that they easily trolled, limiting their gaming time (Not implying, just saying)
3) Time-zones: Can never get around this one. Always neat when your buddies come on, just troublesome when time is the issue.

Games like these are best played with others, and with long-term features so hoping to see RW get to the activity I once seen on my Minecraft side.

Seconded. This is something that should be a must, and I'm sure it'll be added whenever Red decides to send out a "green" update. I do hope we can plot in great variety; Things you see in flower shops & etc. That's this game's bonus.

I second this. There was a vote for this back in spring with it probably being implied for electricity. It be sweet to be able to manually pull (winch) up and down an elevator object as well as electric for both "ages".

Apologies for blowing up again. Simply annoyed that this thread didn't get the two above postings, only jokes that I viewed as mockery. I was hoping for some "immersion" or ideas flowing. Moving on......

I'm sure there's a way to set up a battle arena with NPCs. If we can have RW version of command blocks then that be helpful. Either that, or lure animals from elsewhere to this coliseum. PVP servers would have fun with this, similar to "spleef" and all that from Minecraft side.

Mini-Golf is something I'd enjoy seeing. That & hockey should both work in a similar fashion if we can have stick objects shove items around. I'd happily make a mini-golf area for my reincarnated settlements.

Bow shooting is something I'd enjoy also. I'd set that up first when animations are added. Whenever they are it'll be among the first to be added.

Sweet

@ArcticuKitsu overencumbered haa! All the crazy races and magic and junk.....and you get crippled by a wooden plate! haa!
And why the heck does a Dragon ALWAYS have to turn up as that message comes up: You are carrying too much to run..........GRAAAA!!!!
So begins the usual slow motion awkward, lop sided 'battle' with the Dragon. haa!

I'm a loot hoarder with me needing every little piece of equipment to sell. I always found myself walking painfully slow that I used dragon shouts & the odd horse to get me to a merchant to sell. As for the dragons, just dump everything and fight heh. Pick it all back up when you leave XD.

They're also "silly" like that. I always had them pouncing at me, yet was able to happily dispatch each and every one of them. One had their skeleton glitch, wobble, and move around Whiterun. Imagine that in Rising World, the wobbling corpses

That's indeed planned, unfortunately we have neither an ETA for that (most likely not before beta), nor an idea what kind of "games" we will implement exactly. Probably we will at least implement smaller games, like card games (could be quite funny to sit at a table in multiplayer and play poker with your friends), board games and most likely small videogames (playable on a tv for example)

Sweet. I wouldn't mind having fun with any card game. I don't know how to play poker, yet could try learning. Be sweet to try messing about with solitaire, Blackjack, solitarire (standard & spider) for the hell of it. Any small thing works when inbetween builds & survivals. For the hockey & soccer suggestions being minor with a stick being able to push a puck/ball or being able to kick a ball object. No need for referees or official rules. Only simple basic implementation. I can imagine people making use of their already built stadiums for such.

Video games in RW would be interesting also. Computercraft from Minecraft allowed you to do so, same with command blocks. It seems silly, yet I can see it being a worthwhile feature to play basic mini-games, or ones people program into Rising World. I wouldn't knock the idea because it's a fun though.

Going to ignore Yahgiggle and crew's posting because I view it as mockery when I take into account how people added chess & other various sorts of mini-game sinto Minecraft. I guess they're unaware of how much fun it brings when wrapping up your session in these sorts of games. I guess you wouldn't know.....

Seeing as how we all enjoy silly ideas (sarcasm) I thought I'd mention a few in-game enjoyments that could be considered when one is burnt out in survival mode....

- Chess & Checker board (to play)
- Hockey (only a stick & a puck)
- Football (Soccer ball only)
- Badminton & Tennis.

I'm now going to defend these thoughts because they add more things to do in the game on the side of things. Minecraft had these as plug-ins, Grand Theft Auto Online allowed you to do this for fun so I see why not in adding this into this game. I already see people posting up stadiums so might as well make use of them. Even Playstation Home had these mini-games so might as well have fun with these when the game is considered 'complete'. More to do is always a bonus.

I also stand by my suggestions of riding moose, having NPCs play custom music for you, and having pirates attack you on the high seas.

Awesome! Loving the mix of red & white in this. Looking awesome to rest at heh.

Haa! Thanks ArcticuKitsu!
Is tea not a chill out thing anymore? it used to be such a comfort drink....but now....?
Anyroad i have the felling that people are being arrogant and nasty for attention, and yes! you have our attention! we don't LIKE IT so STOP! haa! We are a community when last i looked, we really don't want to hear this garbage! Valid, calm, thoughtful questions SURE! This irrelevant rubbish? NO THANKS! haa!

Respect to all...

Heh! Tea would be a great idea. I poked Red about that if we can have tea, tomato juice, donuts, and the like with him being positive to the idea. I do hope we get green tea (and others) to have fun with in this game. If it's green tea then I'll accept your offer

A warning would be much welcomed. Being notified would keep me and others alert when we're full on space, just like in Skyrim. The "over-encumbered" warning heh.

I've been thinking on a similar note with needing to repair vehicles. We're eventually going to get them so I do wonder if we'll have to repair the components within to keep them in tip-top shape. Something would give way, wear or just need to be out-right replaced.

I agree with the main point that something should wear out so you have to keep repairing your tools and such. Seeing as how Rising World wants to be 'realistic' (check out a new game called 'Eco') then I guess this is something to expect in the future. Trading through food is something I'm looking forward to the most; water being second; third being equipment trading.

PATIENCE IS A VIRTUE! HAA HAA!

Some folks just need to chill out and find a distraction. Haa! Red and the guys are BREAKING THEIR BACKS trying to get this huge update out. We're all excited about this game and the updates but, you know? It will have been well worth the wait in the end! These guys are 100% genuine, and i intend to stand by them no matter what happens! The thing to do is just find something else to do, while these awesome devs work on the Biomes.
I'm not saying that you're not entitled to your opinion, we all are, it just seems that a few folks are getting a wee bit impatient with the devs with something they're already doing. You'll get your update!
Personally, i'd just take longer, and say, "you'll get it when it's ready!" haa!

I have to agree with him.

Allow patience to be a virtue while keeping our whining to a minimum. It's off putting to the new members also that are forced to go into hiding. I'm finding this thread to be a stain on this forum while also stumped & puzzled with people's reaction when Red has pampered us with Mojang in comparison to AAA game studios. Let's talk about how awesome the "cute" the penguins are, or how surprising finding elephants in this update is. Red is doing an awesome job, and I've been saying that since page 1. I guess my wording is confusing to people

Yup.....I can't wait to hear tales of how James decided to colonize the Savannah, or see images posted up of cottages built up in the 'tundra' biome. Even other ones. Too much bickering scaring people away. I wonder if this is the sign that this game is growing.

True words.. But I'm sure a really snowy biome (which comes closer to "brutal winter" than the current screenshots at least) finds it way into the game too

You're welcome for the feedback

Looking back I may have shared the wrong image, yet happy to hear that we may find more 'brutal' winter biomes heh. I wanted to share more forested areas with frozen lakes & such but I guess that's after all the water & dungeon updates. Something more like this: (Link 1) & (Link 2). I guess I'm just rambling.

But ya, that's awesome heh. Now waiting for the next update.

Ya, at this point I view this second page as "over-reacting". With what I'm used to in the gaming community + with Mojang, Red is basically spoiling us rotten with what we're getting in each update. Everything else is pretty much 'decoration' in text. Even my novel-sized postings.

Nothing to complain about. We're going to get the biome update + the water update + dungeons after that so that's something to look forward to. Blockscape is a mess so it's left to fix itself. Mojang also has issues to tend to by still having to fix boat de-sync issues that they're purposely ignoring. Red's game is one of the few/many games on the block. The small updates Red pushes out is still just as important as the big ones that fixes floating ores, among other things.

I now feel horrible when seeing people having their mind blown. I do love this teaser, yet inflated my expectations a bit too high. Now gradually trying to lower them to be able to have fun when we are given the chance to roam about. That Savannah is now spot on; The tundra not so much for me. This being a teaser so trying to treat it as such with weeks to go till it's fully out.

Surprised to see the lions, Giraffes, and penguins while hoping for arctic foxes, wolves, among others. Nice update. I really do want to go surviving & colonizing heh. Keep up the good work, Red! That last shot kind of looks like the rocky mountains.

The Canadian in me wants to see brutal winter, yet beautiful, scenery like this - http://wallpapers.mi9.com/wallpaper/winter-mountains_87724/.

High praises to Red & his two buddies. Keep up the good work. I'm still giving you high praises heh.
