Minecraft Update next tuesday - Beds! Skip the night & act as respawn points

[Technologic]

Everyone’s favourite mining game is about to get a non-ore orientated update; beds. Next Tuesday Minecraft will be updated with a feature that grants players the ability to make a bed for their character to sleep in. Read on for the details.

Beds will function as places to waste away the night hours. Taking a nap in bed will skip past the dark of the night and bring back the sun. But this is just the start. Coming next month, a further update will make your bed a respawn point. The last bed you took a snooze in will function as a revival point, meaning should you die you won’t have to walk all the way from that lakeside back home. For people with an adventurous spirit, this no doubt comes as pleasing news.

I wonder how the beds will work in multiplayer.... I know the night skipping wont work but the respawn idea could...

respawn point sounds good but as just a way to waste hours its stupid

[Hushy]

maybe its some way of getting rid of the night and healing yourself?

i like the idea, i bet to make beds its like wool and sticks

Guess it could be useful but its not worth its own update, there must be more.

[Matthew]

It should be a way to heal yourself too

i agree with matt because pork chops take effort... killing pigs then cooking....

Maybe multiple people can sleep in the same bed.

Together.

Reminds me of GTA where "having fun with a friendly woman of the night" gains you extra health beyond the usual restrictions - so 100% becomes 120%

Seems odd, but I rarely plan single player anymore anyway. If you're bored at night, do some mining
