*ruins you're game*
esl or underaged? call it
I don't really see what's wrong with Spears.
i would love some genuine answers herewhat is the point to upgrading beyond a diamond sword? everything dies to a sword and shield so easily. there's already flying. you can kill the dragon with beds. spears don't make killing creepers easier. once you get netherite fire prot you may as well never be hurt by anything again
>>723943452since when are spears in minecraft outside of mods?
>>723943728since now. it lets you zoom forward and deletes 4 hunger. damage is based on momentum so you can drop and deal more than half damage to the fat ass warden
>>723943728upcoming "drop" (there way of saying update to distract from the fact they are giga small updates) is including spears and new nautilus mob you can ride, along with finally putting zombies horses into the game proper instead of being left over code
>>723944162that's actually pretty cool, nice high risk/high reward mechanic
so are they adding the aether soon? a lot of elytra weapons getting added lately, not to mention the flying mount.
>>723944603>so are they adding the aether soon?what.
>>723943665because only retarded autistic faggots care about turning every game into a spreadsheet. there's more to a game than minmaxing, fucking faggot. having full netherite gear and a mace to bonk mobs is fun and cool.
>>723944716But its only autistic faggots that care about the mace or spear.
>>723944654old sky dimension mod. and they brought the guy who made that mod on to their team, or so they say. its something that came up when people were speculating about the unbreakable structure in the dark ruins.
>>723944716netherite and spears are autistic minmaxing to me. you never need anything more than a diamond set and they buffed diamond spawns
>>723943589both
>>723944782yeah i know about the aether mod, i'm just kind of bewildered that there's a chance it might officially be added lol
>>723943665>whats the point in using anything but bows?ftfy
I think that sounds fun and coolatleast the spear is accessible and not a fucking rng grind like the trident or trying to get your mace components from a ominous trial dungeon drops
>>723943665player expression and preference. there is no objective reason we need more weapons, but it is nice to have more formal options than janky tech like exploding beds.keep in mind your average player puts ladders all over the place instead of making soul sand elevators, and they mine obsidian to place for their portals instead of just dumping water and lava buckets in mid air. Not everybody is creative in the creativity game.
>>723943452>balance>in a singleplayer game
>>723944782The game needs more new dimensions to explore desu If they are going to keep adding stuff to the game might as well go all in and do something interestingGame had a hell dimension might as well add heaven
>>723945152Only the biggest retards think balancing single player games (which Minecraft is not) is bad
>>723945152Do minecraft pvp autists still exist?
>>723944603No lol.
>>723945324But of course.Just ignore antibalancetards who parrot this shit in any game they think it'll get (You)s for.They don't actually care, they just want replies.
>>723945323Why?
>>723944603this entire upcoming update is just the spear and nat, I doubt they will ever do an actual update much less one as big as the aether
>>723943452what is this? did they change the shovel texture?
>Retarded 'jak pretending to not read thread as an excuse to post his cancer
>>723945829literally me
>>723943452It's a sandbox game. It's optional. Just don't use it.
chicken jockey with a spear sounds terrifying.
It’s only useful with elytra. If you’re gonna have tiers of this shit you need to make it better on foot. It needs a buff. Maybe more attack speed on the netherite version and a small damage increase.
>>723944603it annoys me that they've added so much useless shit that nobody asked for instead of the aether
Why doesn't jeb stick to their own rules when they say they won't add mod items into their game he does a 180 every time every update and adds mod items into the game it's like he's nonconformist or a hypocrite hell half of their marketplace is literal copied mods
>>723946420>It needs a buff.it was nerfed thoughbeit, it used to not deplete hunger>>723946537they will never add the aether because it's actually interesting and has better dungeons than the gay wind dungeons we have now
>>723946537how would aether ores work? would it be updated to be above netherite and diamond?
>>723946648the aether should start you with 0 items thus forcing you to mine for aether shit, and the final boss should allow you to be able to travel home normally back and forth
>>723946636it did item durability damage, lots of it.
>>723943452I wish Minecraft would stop updating Java already. That way modders could move all there shit to the final version, meaning Minecraft could be not shit again
>>723944875Crossbows have no charge up time and you can use a shield with them
>>723946748Sounds like pure cancer
>>723943589esl calling people esl... classic
>>723947909Funny that that's such a hot take.They legit SHOULD just stop updating the Java version, I get sick of how there's all these points in development where the modding community decides to stop at one version and then another, then another and now you've got the modding community split between like 10 different versions of the game.Then you find an old mod you used to love and it's still getting updated, but it's on version 1.3.2.7rev24 and the worldgen's broken and turning random blocks into insta-void death in that version but the dev doesn't care because he's using some plugin that doesn't exist anymore that fixes it.>>723943665Netherite stuff doesn't burn in lava, IIRC.Dunno though, I've played Minecraft on and off since pre-1.0 on many worlds and in both Java and Bedrock, and I've never once seen the netherite upgrade smithing template in the vanilla game. Never seen a Pale Oak biome or one of those woodland mansion things either. I could rant for hours about how much I hate RNGesus.Told my nephew about the cool new Pale Oak biome and the Creaking, made sure I was on the right version, flew in Spectator mode at 9999999999 mph, never saw one. I had to rely on Youtube to show him what it's like.
>>723944603Valkyrie sex.
>>723948771yeah
>>723944603no they wont add aether because cool shit is prohibited in mojang
>>723949110>>in microsoftftfy
>>723944162>damage is based on momentum so you can drop and deal more than half damage to the fat ass wardencouldn't you already do that with the stupid wind mace thing?
I dont get it
>>723945596Because imbalance in single player games brings about something that is as bad as impabalance in multiplayer games causing unfun moments, and that is the ''power down'', a feature in which you pick up a shitty fucking weapon replacing the awesome cool weapon you were just using or needing to use a weapon that is not fun to progress the gama or god forbid shifting the fucking gameplay flow like a platformer randomly turning into a shoot em up because you are flying a plane.I get that the topic of balance is entirely tied to pvp games and that SP games can ignore that because of ''oh its a single player game, you could just use something else'' idiotic arguments that are as disingenious as idsoft's "You control the buttons you press" when fans were not positive about doom eternal's constant need to do fatalities to juice back your supplies, that and people who legitimally think balancing a SP game being bad miss a fucking colossal point about balancing a videogame is meant to do: MAKE THE GAME FUN.I love old games, but one thing i know about them is that losing your power ups certainly brings a very unbalanced level of punishment like losing a spreadgun in contra, because on the contrary, the spreadgun is extremely fucking good that it makes using anything else redundant or a power down. And even in modern games, if people NERF something that cheeses fights, it begs the question if the game is fun if the more popular goal is to not interact with shit.Mind you, nothing i said above applies to minecraft, but single player vidya balance matters because it is balance done for the fun of the game and personally speaking, Minecraft's additions and changes hardly change make the game more fun because none of the bigger problems are changed at all, so shit's still the same but it has random extra confetti, and that is sad to see.
>>723943665>bedrock fags speak about diamonds swords>chad java uses axes
>>723943452>Lunge once>Have to eat an entire full-course meal to do it againThis is stupid
>>723951872Everything about modern Minecraft is
>>723943589Bait, which you'd realize if you weren't so fucking new
>>723951872>he hasn't seen the parkour courses that combine the spear, mace, and cake (which are probably getting ruined in a future update because moyang hates fun)
>>723951872the game sorely lacks a stamina/exhaustion metre
>>723952770that's hunger
>>723943452>new feature gets added>it doesnt matter what the fuck it is>"REEEEE GAME RUINED"I fucking hate people like you
>>723952770Found the mojang employeeGenuinely kill yourself
Minecraft was never good.
>>723948479use the /locate command
>>723943452>Kills the "Steve can hold many eiffel towers in his inventory" fagsSTEVE IS A JOBBER
>>723952492What do you mean "bait"?
>>723943665Stone axe best weapon
>>723952770That would only work if they reworked the hunger system so you're not constantly stuffing yourself with tons of food every time some aimbot skeleton headshots you.>remove saturation as a gameplay mechanic, but keep the status effect with certain items, like a potion or the suspicious stews>hunger goes down at a slow, linear rate regardless of what you do>healing rate is at or a little faster than Bedrock's level (slow), but you heal constantly and don't need to keep your hunger bar at a certain threshold>the more full your hunger bar is, the more you heal over time>your food meter also works as your "max stamina", and a few actions (mainly sprinting) cost stamina>if your hunger meter is half empty, your max stamina is halved, and so on>all farming, and all edible shit is reworked and rebalanced to fit under these new changesEven just taking out the stamina part of this suggestion would work great, in my factually objective statement. I hate that food is literally only there to be topped off so you can heal, then topped off repeatedly until you're healed.
>>723954214I've /located shit I haven't been able to find just to verify they're in the game. Also I was showing him that you can speed up in spectator mode.Also-also, I don't feel like I should have to. It doesn't make sense when a game like this adds something only for players to never see it. Like hell, I've never seen a trial chamber naturally despite playing like a Dwarf and never seeing the sun on most runs, and it took me until a couple months ago before I found my first, uh, Warden city, whatever they're called.I always saw Sculk here and there, but never the actual city, at least until I learned how to find them 99% of the time. (They spawn under big mountains.)
>>723943452There are spears in Minecraft? Or are you guys talking about mods?
>>723955465They added spears in the snapshots. You can charge at things and do more damage depending on how fast you're going. You can enchant it with Lunge that uses your hunger/saturation to launch you forward.
>>723945072>casting a portal is "creative"only if i find a surface lava pool near my base, else i will build it in a good location and build a gate around it without having to remove cobblestone and replanting or bonemealing flowers around it just to be a wannabe pretend speedrunner saving like, 5 minutesalso ladders fit a lot of builds more than bubble elevators, buildlet
>>723955171Unironically a good thing. Don’t treat the game as a checklist for finding everything named in the wiki. Just play and explore. It’s cool to think that you’ll find mysterious, bizarre stuff at hour 905 after finally wandering 800 chunks from home. The lack of homogeneity in the world gen and structure gen is awesome. I wish there was more of it. I wish there was more random bizarre stuff to see.
>>723954487your a faget
>>723957081I haven’t updated for a while now, but am I correct in assuming spearlytra is up there with hundred block mace in terms of its ability to just one-tap everything?
Notch would have never added a spear
slabs ruined minecraft
>>723957374>Minecraft finally adds a new weapon for the first time since damn near forever, the mace (Bedrock can't even use the axe as a weapon because ???)>have to spend hours just getting the map for a trial chamber via trading unless you already have cartographers ready (haha)>other option is just to dig up entire square miles in the hopes of finding one>finally get to a trial chamber>getting the mace parts isn't even guaranteed; they're shockingly rare for some reason>even in "hard mode", the TCs barely give anything decent to make up for all this effort, unless you're doing some weird meta shit with wind charges or you need a shitload of copper blocks>finally get the mace after five hours of grinding repetitive fights>even with enchantments, it kinda just sucks at everything unless you use it to goomba stomp shit>the goomba stomp shit isn't worth the instant death risk 99.9% of the time, especially on servers where you can't really predict the lag and are likely to just die unceremoniouslyAlso, random bizarre cool shit is cool if the base game had enough content to justify it, but man, people have been wanting more weapon options and Mojang's first attempt at a whole new weapon in a long time (since crossbows, I think?) is an uber rare gimmick weapon nobody uses.
Bloat.
>>723943452Just play Vintage Story
oh for fuck sakes.
>>723950607did not read a single word
>>723948184So like current day Minecraft
>>7239435892nu
KINO
odd way to admit you dont have friends to pvp with
raria added this shit yrs ago
>>723943452Anyone got a copy of Jeb's Green Book?
>>723958979Mace and Trident both sucked by being too situational and hard to come by. Spears are cool though; easy to craft, fit with the material level system. They (like copper armor) feel like an intended part of the game's progression, whereas maces, tridents, and crossbows feel like a gimmick.
>>723944603>hire the guy who made the aether mod>dont ever make a proper aether updateThanks, jeb, you fucking cuckhold
>>723966878Man that shit looks retarded
>>723943452>Mace>but LE horizontalBRAVO Jeb
>>723950746This. The internal dwarf reigns supreme
>>723943452You can make spears in Minecraft?
Well back to 1.12.2
Minecraft is just a tech demo.
>>723943452>Add spears>Still no clubs, maces or hammers.Dead shit game!
im glad people are finally realising nu mojeng fucking sucks
