- New Realm: The End
- It is currently a one-way trip to venture into, as the only way to get out is with death.
- The only exception to this is by making a Nether portal in the End, then making another portal in the Nether, which will ultimately teleport you back to the main world. Unfortunately, it is not possible to do so.
- Glistering Melon
- Enchantments
- The Sun and Moon have been refined and no longer appear square.
- The Sun and Moon now rise in the east and set in the west, based on the top of maps being North.
- The Moon now has multiple phases (crescent moon, half moon, full moon, etc)
- Flowers now grow randomly around the world like grass on dirt.
- Strongholds are slightly larger
- Strongholds have more Chests
- Splash potions with Area of Effect when thrown, created by brewing an existing potion with gunpowder.
- Implemented a swirl effect while under a buff.
- Ghast Tears now cause regeneration and not instant health when brewed into a potion.
- Glistering Melons cause instant health when brewed into a potion
- New settings in Server.properties:
- debug
- enable-query

- query.port
- rcon.password

- Fluids placed with a bucket treat other fluids as solid blocks, allowing you to place one on top of the other. This is not true with fluids not placed with a bucket.[citation needed]

Bug Fixes:- Enchanting now works in multiplayer.
- Shift click crashes in enchanting table and brewing stand now fixed.
- Critical hits fixed in smp.
- Glass towers stretching to the top of the map no longer appear over Strongholds.
Notable Bugs: (Complete bug list)- Shooting a sheep with a bow crashes the game for some people.
- New swirl effects don't show up in 3rd person front facing mode.
- Ferns still do no spawn in any biome.
- Eye of Ender doesn't always point to the nearest stronghold.
- Melons drop just one slice[1]
- Arrows shot with a fully charged bow into Enderman in The End will cause the game to crash. This breaks the world
- A world called "Untitledworld" may appear automatically in the game. This world is completely filled with blocks, and you spawn at level 128. Grass blocks are the only visible block, but down several layers there is a completely flat layer of smoothstone.
- Monster Spawners retrieved using the Silk Touch enchantment only spawn Pigs.
- According to Enchantments, Fortune seems to work only if the block would drop a different item type upon being mined; Fortune works for only coal, lapis lazuli and diamond ore.
I bought Minecraft not for potions, enchantments and stuff. The more stuff Minecraft has, the worser it is becoming...
