Seasons for most biomes

under review

At least the medium/lush biomes could have four seasons (spring, summer, fall and winter). The cold (snowy) or hot (desert, jungle) biomes could be excluded from this. 

What do seasons change? The most visible change is the vegetation, for example colored tree foliage in autumn or blossoms in spring time. In winter the precipitation would be snow and not rain. And it could also have some impact on crop growth, like slow growth in winter. This would add some difficulty to the game. Mob spawning could be affected by this too.

There are already moon phases in Minecraft. Maybe the seasons could be tied to this. One entire moon circle could be one season. I think it would make the game more diverse and enjoyable.

    Yes! I think if they weren't to add seasons changing, biomes centered around seasons would be very enjoyable. I can imagine bees and birch trees covering the spring themed one. This might give them a chance to add the concept are for the updated birch forests into reality. Summer could resemble a sort of desert oasis, while the fall inspired biome could be a more forest-y, halloween-y feel taiga.

    There should be a temperature thing for the player, if you get too cold you take some damage for it, same thing for when you get to hot

    This would be cool! What if it also changed mob spawns? For example when its winter animals like cows, chickens, pigs spawn less and sheep and goats spawn more? Also what if hardcore mode added temperature aspects to the game?

    It be very Idealy to have seasons in game just like how TheSims4 has seasons.

    and different colored trees would go nicely for the Fall and Winter seasons.

    Maybe adding new mobs like a snowy zombie similar to the MC dungeons one or a skeleton that shoots fire arrows or a poison variation of common mobs

    I think a “Seasonal update” would be awesome linking the “Fruit Trees and Bushes” idea that is a very supported  one.

    Other cool and vibrant ideas could be added to the update, perhaps also new crops and plants in general. New animals would refresh the game integrating cultural biodiversity and making an even interesting game to all.

    It'd be nice if the seasons could not be sped up by the player! I think what would make them really nice is if it felt like an event when the season changes, rather than something players optimize to skip to their favorite season and stay in it perpetually.

    Maybe in spring, all vegetation will slowly swap between textures that simulate flowers growing!

    Please do not tie it to the phases of the moon. Just have each season be 91 in game days and so each season would last 30.33 hours in real life.

    I would like to see falling leaves and leaf piles in the autumn, and bare branches in the winter, covered in snow during snowfall.

    Hmm… Changing seasons should be done every three lunar cycles, which is accurate to the real world. And if I am being honest, this single post made all the way back in 2017, five years ago, has 25 pages worth of comments frankly, Mojang has already been bombarded with uncanny amounts of ideas, some accurate, some reasonable, some exiting, and some questionable. However, I am confident that they will be apple to put together the best ideas for this change and, implement the into Minecraft delicately and respectfully, in a few months. Due to the fact that, to be frank, looking through all these comments and finding the best ones is awe-strikingly complex, to put it lightly.

    not a bad idea, but I will add that in the savannah you can make a rainy season, in the summer there will be a drought, and in the spring there will be rains, and the same in other warm biomes, and in the winter biomes, do not change anything, but furnish everything as it is

    I think seasons should change about every 4-6 moon cycles. Longer time periods between season changes would be better so players can create season specific build without having to rush or wait excessive amounts of time for the preferred season to return. I think players should experience a season change every 3 sessions of play.

    Select leaf blocks changing color based on season, specifically oak, birch, and dark oak. Perhaps fall leaf colors (red, yellow, orange) can be generated in patches (tied to coordinates). Much in the same way the flower forest biome generates patches of identical flowers. This would allow for more natural beauty.

    Perhaps a silk touch tool can allow one to collect a certain leaf color (including white leafs during snow) to use in builds.
