    The mild update
    • 🔥3

  4. AzzyypaarasTeam

    1.15 2: significant internally, mild externally

  5. 916yoshi

    Mojang: e yo look nice concepts! I want celebrate wildness of mc Also mojang: change only swamps

  6. DafuqsTeam

    default swamp is still empty. :'(

  7. fishy

    imagine adding a new biome and not replacing a boring-ass biome

  8. Ice

    blame the deep dark for the wild update being mid lul

  9. fishy

    and even then the deep dark is still unfinished

  10. Ice

    yeah kinda sad

  11. fishy

    yeah like who's gonna go there for an apple

  12. AzzyypaarasTeam

    Yeah, wild update is externally not super interesting

  13. Ice

    people are more pissed that 2 pixels that add """""ambience""""" isnt getting added

  14. AzzyypaarasTeam

    Mojang has given them a good explanation as why they were not added and they are still seething

  15. Ice

    this is the same shit that happened to parrots lmao

  16. AzzyypaarasTeam

    Atop the whole "they are poisonous to frogs" there is also, I think, a deeper reason that more seasoned or technical players should understand

  17. Ice

    i mean this is technically C&C part 3 but we still arent done with the C&C features

  18. AzzyypaarasTeam

    Archeology and bundles are not CnC features

  19. Ice

    i mean they were announced with caves and cliffs sooo

  20. AzzyypaarasTeam

    Finishing the previous thought, entities are by far the laggiest thing you commonly find in mc

  21. Ice

    that was my main concern with fireflies, the amount of lag they would give lul

  22. AzzyypaarasTeam

    Yeah

  23. Ice

    why not just make em particles i never understood

  24. AzzyypaarasTeam

    And unlike what most people would like you to believe, improving entity performance is far from a trivial issue

  25. fishy

    invisible entity with firefly particles would probably do the trick

  26. AzzyypaarasTeam

    I mean, it would work

  27. Ice

    it kinda makes sense why people are pissed over the birch forest not beign updated in 1.19 as concept art was shown, they acted like it was gonna be part of the update, it looked sick

  29. Ice

    should have mojang shown the concept art if they had no intentions of putting it in 1.19? probably not, i kinda like to think it was more of a proof of concept of how they wanna redo minecrafts biomes

  30. 916yoshi

    1.19 is just part III of cave and clifs

  31. Ice

    doesnt deserve the name of "wild update" if imma be honest

  32. AzzyypaarasTeam

    My ass is part 3 of yorue mom 😎 (pegging)

  34. Ice

    I'd go with "Sculk Update" or just "C&C Part III"

  35. 916yoshi

    Idk who want use sculk cathalist

  36. Ice

    its a way of storing xp i guess? oddly weird way of doing so

  37. AzzyypaarasTeam

    Sculk is in the same category as slime and honey blocks, and the observer

  38. 916yoshi

    Replying toIceits a way of storing xp i guess? oddly weird way of doing so

    Yes but remeber cathalist can spawn shriker

  39. Ice

    no it cant lol

  40. 916yoshi

    lol

  41. Ice

    even if it could it wouldnt spawn wardens

  42. AzzyypaarasTeam

    I give it 6 months before you can't find any big redstone contraptions that don't use sculk sensors

  43. cr24Team

    Skulk is aesthetically really cool looking imo

  44. AzzyypaarasTeam

    This

  45. cr24Team

    skulk gives me thaumcraft taint vibes and its sick to be able to make "skulked" ruins and structures

  46. AzzyypaarasTeam

    Also lets be honest here

  47. Ice

    i was really hoping echo shards would get more of a use than a compass

  48. AzzyypaarasTeam

    The skulk shard things

  49. 916yoshi

    Replying toIceno it cant lol

    "If a mob dies and a charge is detected more than 4 blocks from a catalyst, a sculk block has a chance to use 10 experience to grow a sculk sensor or a sculk shrieker. A sculk sensor has a 9% chance to spawn and a sculk shrieker has a 1% chance to spawn."

  50. AzzyypaarasTeam

    Those are going to get abused so fucking hard in mods

  51. Ice

    TRUE

  52. AzzyypaarasTeam

    I can tell it now, it is going to be the next generation of diamonds

  53. fishy

    but let's not forget that they'll expand on the sculk later(edited)

  54. 916yoshi

    ECHO HOE

  55. AzzyypaarasTeam

    That is a fair point too, in the grand scale of things mojang is pretty good at revisiting and expanding upon previously added content

  56. fishy

    y'know it would be nice if they pushed a finished update though(edited)

  57. cr24Team

    this ^

  58. Ice

    id like an update that doesnt have 239863458 one off features that arent ever gonna get touched ever again

  59. AzzyypaarasTeam

    I think things are going to ramp back up as we go into 1.20 and such

  60. Ice

    or maybe just oh IDK spend more time developing an update instead of 6 months????

  61. fishy

    but they have to stick to their schedule

  62. AzzyypaarasTeam

    On the topic of developing an update for 6 months

  63. sunsette

    I’m such a developer

  64. 916yoshi

    Replying toIceor maybe just oh IDK spend more time developing an update instead of 6 months????

    Yeah, but they adding thing they showed before 1.19

  65. kalucky0Team

    Hello?

  66. 916yoshi

    Like warden

  67. AzzyypaarasTeam

    Replying tosunsetteI’m such a developer

    You are the most important dev, you grant us emotional support by your presence

  68. kalucky0Team

    Anyone wants a banana?

  71. 916yoshi

    And still he have one attack

  73. Ice

    bro thats the ranged attack(edited)

  74. AzzyypaarasTeam

    The warden isn't a boss

  75. Ice

    i love this image

  76. sunsette

    sonic boom sonic boom sonic boooom

  77. AzzyypaarasTeam

    Why does everyone call every other new mob a new boss

  78. Ice

    hard mob to kill =/= boss mob

  79. sunsette

    Replying toAzzyypaarasWhy does everyone call every other new mob a new boss

    perhaps they have a sliver of hope

  80. AzzyypaarasTeam

    Replying tosunsettesonic boom sonic boom sonic boooom

    sonic BOOM (incomprehensible rapping while you get fucked by a living castle with wings)

  81. sunsette

    I wanna just ask

  82. AzzyypaarasTeam

    yes :balls:

  83. sunsette

    i get it was a twitter poll but how did it even end up on the poll

  84. Ice

    we got a breif description and some concept art, the community voted for what they liked the most(edited)

  85. fishy

    they needed a fourth idea but couldn't think of one so they added the trash mob c

  86. sunsette

    not talking abt the community

  87. AzzyypaarasTeam

    Honestly, the phantom is the one thing in this game I cannot defend or argue for

  88. sunsette

    no hate or anything but phantom made the entire gameplay loop of minecraft worse seemingly irreparably(edited)

  89. AzzyypaarasTeam

    Even things like the no-vertical slabs policy I understand

  90. Ice

    vertical slabs are something that most people would never use lets be real

  91. AzzyypaarasTeam

    How the phantom was designed and how everyone decided it was a good idea is beyond me

  92. sunsette

    Replying toIcevertical slabs are something that most people would never use lets be real

    i’m not sure i even slightly agree

  93. AzzyypaarasTeam

    Vertical slabs would split everyone between those who overuse them and those who never use them

  94. CDAGamingTeam

    Plus the fact people wanted another phantom-like mob too

  95. sunsette

    i can think of numerous practical and aesthetic reasons to use them

  96. fishy

    I still think the phantom should be in the end

  98. CDAGamingTeam

    If Dream for example said to vote for any other mob besides the allay, we'd be in for a world of trouble(edited)

  99. Ice

    slap the phantom in an end biome, cuz why the phantom an overworld mob, drops something that repairs elytra which is end city loot(edited)

  100. AzzyypaarasTeam

    Replying tofishyI still think the phantom should be in the end

    It would be thematically fitting, yes, but do you really want those fuckers diving at you while you are bridging over the void

  101. CDAGamingTeam

    yea, if anything thats a much worse fate to have

  102. fishy

    it's better than having forced sleeping imo

  103. CDAGamingTeam

    one knockback in the wrong direction, and poof, gone xD

  104. AzzyypaarasTeam

    I was going to say yes but

  105. sunsette

    if the phantoms were something like an astral plane hallucination that’s semitransparent and can’t hurt you, but is annoying for meta reasons instead of gameplay reasons, it’d be better and a little creepier

  106. AzzyypaarasTeam

    Forced sleeping is better

  107. CDAGamingTeam

    ^^ 100% prefer that then losing my items

  108. sunsette

    if i had to choose i’d choose that but we don’t have a choice to begin with lol

  109. CDAGamingTeam

    All mojang needs to do to make forced sleep better is just adding an in-between state, and theyd be fine

  110. sunsette

    or not have it

  112. fishy

    mfw I hate beds

  113. sunsette

    sleeping does 2 things stops hostile mobs from spawning and resets a timer that stops flying hostile mobs from spawning???

  114. CDAGamingTeam

    I'd like for them to outright remove phantoms, but when has mojang ever removed something like that?

  115. sunsette

    beds sucks

  116. Ice

    whenever people want mojang to update the sky, i always wonder to myself, what is there to update there? sure ya can add a crap ton of birds... but what else?

  117. CDAGamingTeam

    inb4 terraria sky islands

  118. Ice

    Replying toCDAGaminginb4 terraria sky islands

    holy shit aether in vanilla 100% real no clickbait 2014

  119. AzzyypaarasTeam

    Hot take: in the land of modded, what mojang actually does in updates doesn't really matter much past the fact that they are updating

  120. CDAGamingTeam

    that and the java and lwjgl version

  121. AzzyypaarasTeam

    I've been excited for updates before, but I can't say I've ever been upset or disappointed when they don't deliver(edited)

  122. CDAGamingTeam

    Moving off of java 8 though was a godsend, to leave that era behind

  123. AzzyypaarasTeam

    like our lack of dungeon progress

  124. CDAGamingTeam

    I cant even imagine these newer updates working well with Java 8 at this point 😄

  125. AzzyypaarasTeam

    Yeah

  126. CDAGamingTeam

    or lwjgl 2

  127. AzzyypaarasTeam

    More reason to slap anyone asking for backports :hehe:

  128. CDAGamingTeam

    not really

  129. Jack PapelTeam

    Yes

  130. Ice

    omg 1.4.2 port when omg omg omg !11!

  131. Jack PapelTeam

    1.17

  132. CDAGamingTeam

    bc most understand a backport for the aether simply will never happen

  133. AzzyypaarasTeam

    The only thing we are porting to is 1.7

  134. CDAGamingTeam

    And the development pipeline at this stage, isnt necesarily compatible with supporting anything other then the latest mc release 😄

  135. AzzyypaarasTeam

    You know, with aether legacy

  136. sunsette

    minecraft could do a sky dimension without it being even remotely like the aether, in gameplay purpose or aesthetic purpose

  137. fishy

    sounds like the end dimension to me

  138. SollyTeam

    I just want a foot dimension
