Let's get right into it!

Slime Block:

Description:
The slime block is a new block which works like a trampoline
This is great if you live in the sky since you wont take any fall damage
Clicking space while landing on the block will make you stop bouncing

This block can be crafted our found in the creative menu

Skin Changes

Skins are now twice as big!
I'm not talking about the resolution :(

You can simply add jackets, pants or whatever you want to
Here's a little example of a skin (found on reddit)



LL - left leg

RL - right leg

LA - left arm

RA - right arm


Image

Wanna know something epic about this?
You can freaking customize this.

Take off your pants or whatever you want to
You can find this in the options menu --> "Skin Customization"



New Commands

/blockdata

Description:

Everything you see for the blockdata command is by craftykids


/blockdata changes a block's data tags.

/blockdata [X] [Y] [Z] [Data tags] will give the block at [X], [Y], [Z] the data tags [Data tags].
So if you used /blockdata ~ ~-1 ~ {Command:"/say Hello!"} while standing on a command block, it would change the command block's command to /say Hello!


/fill
Description:

Filling blocks! This command is awesome
So, you need 2 cords & a block type
First corner & second corner

Example: (x1 y1 z1 x2 y2 z1 block)
/fill 500 1 200 502 5 502 minecraft:stone


This would fill in an area with stone ;)

/clone
Description:
You need 3 cords to run this command
Clone your builds!

Example: (/clone x1 y1 z1 x2 y2 z2 x y z mode)
/clone 200 64 200 200 69 200 205 64 200 replace

This command would clone your build.
It looks confusing yes, but it works ;)
The relace is for replacing air blocks or anything which is already there

/Particle
Description:

You can spawn particles.
You can also change the duration and size of the particle
Example: (Spawn in some smoke)

/particle smoke x y z 1 1 1 0.5 2

You can play around with this yourself

The first 3 would be the co-ords ;)


Command changes/new stuff

Teleport
(I need someone to help me explain the y-rotation and x-rotation)
You can now choose where people would be looking at :O

/tp @p x y z y-rotation x-rotation

example:
/tp @p ~ ~ ~ 90 ~

This command would make you loot towards west

Setblock
You can now lock chests using the setblock command

example:
/setblock ~ ~ ~ minecraft:chest 0 replace {Lock:CODE}

This would place a chest with a lock named CODE
You can rename an item, call it code and open the chest :)

Don't Worry! The adventure mode change is down below ;)

Item frame signals?
Description:

A new awesome "adventure map feature" has been added.
Item frames can now detect signals depending on the rotation
Rotating your item once would increase the signal by one
(This only works with comparators ofc)

Button changings!
Descriptions:

You can now place buttons on the floor/ceilings


Block Changes

Doors:
You can now stack doors up to 64
Crafting doors will give you 3 doors

Mossy cobblestone
This block is now craft-able!
Image

Moss stone brick:
This block is now craft-able!
Image

Chiseled Blocks
You can now craft chiseled blocks!

Image

Enchanting



Image

Enchanting requires lapis now, wait wut?
So...

Enchanting changed A LOT
You can now see your first enchantment
Enchantments wont reset until you enchant something (no more refresh for new enchant)

You will only loose 3 levels if you enchant a lvl 30 enchantment

This new enchantment system has made enchanting easy and even more awesome
I would give the new system 8/10 ;)

Anvils changed as well. I'm not doing a line for anvils since it's simple xD


Adventure Mode



Not a lot to say about this but here it is:

They changed it so you can't destroy or place ANY block

Note: You can still get items from item frames :)

But not being able to destroy blocks? wut

WE CAN CHANGE THIS!

Here is a command which gives you a shear which can destroy dirt (dirt only)

/give @p minecraft:shears 1 0 {CanDestroy:["minecraft:dirt"]}

The new tag "CanDestroy" allows you to make sure players can destroy specify blocks!


Trading/Villagers

Villagers are now overpowered!

Villagers are now easier to work with.
They have different jobs such as weapon smith or tool smith
This means that the same skinned villager have different trades

The reason why it's overpowered is because you can turn enderpeals into emerald

Iron farms wont work anymore since breeding changed.
Villagers will now breed based of trading
Trading with villagers would make them horny (no more doors)
Refreshing trades has changed as well, simply: trade with them and close your menu. This will reset the tradings

Locking world difficulty

Not much to say, check your options menu :D

Cya all everyone ^-^

of course you can still break item frames. How did I know the mojang team would do that. I expect this fixed so people don't steal items!
