Items will now float on water , ir at least some of them.
Added bubble coloumns that alter buoyancy (or something)
Water will no longer break grass, but will flow through it .

2. Riptide-
When using a trident , it thrusts you forward at high speed (underwater use). Also works during rain.

WHAT

Buoyancy added.
Items will now float on water
Added geysers that alter buoyancy

Now how would this work...
Hopefully they don't remove infinite water sources & the fall damage counter that water can do for you. That would actually be really upsetting.

Water will no longer break grass.
New water texture(lol obviously)
Water flows through fences

ok no. I want my water bucket lawn mowers!
But at least fences can now be used as a support for docks and stuff now. That ought to be pretty nifty!


Now.
The mob votes.
I bet they're just going to add all four mobs considering they already did the work to code them into the game in the first place.
I was hoping for C since that was the only one that actually had a purpose that was hinted at in the description. The other mobs would've probably just been a "trash mob". By trash mob, I mean a mob that is basically there to exist for no reason other than just to kill you. No special reason to kill them and or maybe tame them unlike mob C. Mob C had something to do with some interesting enchanting properties, and that really got me interested in it. 'Tis a waste if they don't add it at all.
AND CAN I JUST SAY THAT MOB B IS JUST A STINGRAY IN THE AIR? NOT EVEN A FISH. A FLYING MOB THAT LOOKS LIKE A STINGRAY.


ps I hope the fish flops on land

Its the first item thats both a weapon and a projectile ; it’d be interesting to see what happens.

WHAT

Yeah so basically , you get thrusted forward at high speeds when you attack with a trident which has the “riptide” enchantment.

It’s used for maneuvering underwater. However the special feature is that it can be used during rain. You can thrust upward and put on your elytra and fly!

 

[SpringWarz]

Finally new mobs and decorations added to ocean and river biomes! :D

That's not true. Those were just sketches and ideas of those mobs. They could have done that without coding anything which is why the possibility of them adding all four of them is pretty low.

Yet why would they announce 4 possible mobs for the update (after 1.13) while not having partly implemented on ANY of them before the voting? Wouldn't that be the worst way to go about things?

 

[A pigeon]

They dont even have names for them yet

 

[SpringWarz]

Tbh, they should have showed what mobs A-D did, before everyone voted for them. We don't even though how much damage they are gonna do, attacks etc. (Unless they did showed the attacks, I wasn't paying attention :P)

Like I said in my previous post. Those were only sketches and ideas of those mobs. They wouldn't waste actual development time on something they wouldn't implement.

I'm pretty sure such situations are pretty common inside game development. Where designers come up with multiple ideas but only 1 or 2 get chosen.
This could have even happened before in Mojang. Where certain mobs that we never heard of before simply got denied and didn't make it into the game.
