1.8 and Legit

[Clamington]

Just a place to talk about what is happening with legit for 1.8 so we don't spam the shout box.

Is it not a bit early? The update's not coming out till this winter...

1.8 CONFIRMED!!!

What is happening, Sir Clamington, is a good day, a good day indeed for valve times everywhere.

[Clamington]

It may be a bit early, but is there even an official release date?

[bmanrules]

not yet, which makes it even more too early to know what'll be added to it, or what the story should be with Legit :P

They've said Late Fall/Winter on Dinnerbone's twitter

[Clamington]

Ah, i still think we should do a map reset and do one of the cool new map terrain editor options or an amplified map

[mIKe]

Its more like do we want to keep this map or ditch it for the new legit map....?

[Clamington]

I didnt think we were keeping the test map or the current legit map, i was kind hoping for a whole new fresh start. Some of the new world generation options are really cool. Another idea i had if we did start a whole new map is do something like the mindcrack people are doing with a world border that expands like 10 blocks a day. This kinda forces people to work together and share and forces a more community focused world.

All just ideas though

New map.
Current maps are getting old.
Many abandoned builds in Build 1
