I see a new End ice bridge design using sulfur cubes or just blue ice.
Out of curiosity, are the snow bricks prone to melting next to higher light levels the way regular snow blocks are?
And yet they don't listen for creating dirt stairs, fences and slabs
I'm actually buzzing as a Winter Enthusiast that I'm gonna be able to build with more cold related things, WE CAN BUILD BETTER IGLOOS NOW
Snow may sadly not be a stone, but it is technically sand
Aawwww. I wanted another chiselled block. oh well. At least we're getting chiselled ice block.
I Feel Like Putting Snow at Verius Levels On-Top of The Iglue, It Would Make it Pop, I Reckon,
Maybe Add A Soul Lantern On-Top of The Snow Brick Fence, Just A Thought,,, 🤔 😅❤🎉
Best Content Ever, W🎉
I think the bricks should have a slightly darker tint to be more visible
2:41 "the water flew in"
Remember when Professor Dave said "oceans don't need wings"
I knew it! When i saw ice bricks, i knew this was next!
3:30 ah yes , wool blocks
now we need a new structure made from these new blocks !
it would be awesome if we could make a snow golem using snow bricks to make a unique variant with its body visually being made out of snow bricks and the golem having more health
3:06 “this my friends is what the community has been asking for” yeah that’s cool and all. But uhh Mojang, where abouts is that end update????
Still holding out strong for calcite block set
im sorry, but all i could hear while listening to those ambient ice cave sound bits was "quick step!" lolol
Thanks for the snap – and thanks a bunch for the genesis stream yesterday – it was a delight.
About lilly pads, wouldn't it be nice if neighboring pads formed a large pad? With the option to place them like normal with shift rightclick of course
how flammable are these new bricks
best video today ❄❄
Need new architecture / buildings
I am still holding out hope for calcite bricks and stairs and walls. Same as polished diorite walls. This would be perfect for this upgrade!
Since snow is made up of snowflakes which are just grains of ice, which is a rock. This means that snow could be considered a sand because sand is just rock turned into small grains just like how snowflakes are small ice grains
And I fully expect the definition of sand to be a bit more specific, but my point still stands
Finally, snow castle
What if they make Frost Walker immune to breaking brittle ice
The devs are absolutely cooking, I have a feeling they waited this long to push out all these updates in order to keep the Minecraft's name up on top iykwim, no complaints from me
I hope they change the snow brick blocks to change the grass texture to the snowy version. Would be nice for to keep it similar.
Fun fact.
Geologically:
– Water is lava.
– Snow is sand.
– Ice is mineral.
Snow is to Ice as Gravel is to Stone
I wish there were ways to efficiently cut non-stone blocks, like a wood cutter or just a Block Shaper
2:40: You're right, the past tense of 'flow' really should be 'flew' shouldn't it?
Unfortunately not tho
Snow golems just had a huge buff!
Ice is technically a mineral, you would be right for saying it's a rock.
This could be big for the one block superflat earlygame. I guess you still can't get any of the special sized blocks until you have a crafting table, but if nothing else there's a texture to work with
