Pretty Scary Update – Minecraft 1.4.2

Nakon nešto više od dva mjeseca Mojang nam donosi Pretty Scary Update ili 1.4.2 update. U duhu Halloweena u novoj verziji ćemo se susresti sa vješticama, šišmišima, novim skeletonom i novim bossom. Tu je i command blok koji će uvelike pomoći kreatorima mapa. Dodane su nove biljke i hrana, kozmetički itemi tipa vaze za cvijeće, okviri za iteme, glave mobova. Cijela je tu hrpa novosti, a više o novoj verziji pročitajte u tekstu ispod klikom na ‘more’. Moramo napomenuti da će HCL server biti updejtan za otprilike tjedan dana, pa ako želite nastaviti igrati nemojte updejtati svoju igru ili napravite backup Minecraft foldera.
