1.9 will be bad

1.9 Will ruin minecraft IMO

 

Do remember that anything you see in snapshots is still highly subject to change. If Mojang receives enough negative feedback about any given feature, they will most likely tweak it, change it, or remove it to better fit the desires of a larger portion of the fanbase. Nothing about the update is final until the final release of 1.9.

On the topic of plugins overriding features, will something be done to counteract the Levitation effect from Shulkers on the survival/factions/skyblock servers? It seems like there are a good few ways the effect could be abused.

 

1.9 will give me good blocks to build with, so I am fine with it.

 

There's purpur blocks from the chorus fruits, end stone bricks, and dirt pathways. Am I forgetting any?

 

I know I'm kind of the odd man out here, but 1.9 has to be better than 1.8. All this update had was a lot of useless blocks. I mean yeah they can be cool depending, but I would've liked new recipes for it. At least now the combat function might actually be cool.

 

UH guys! I think it is important they update to 1.9 i don't wanna be stuck playing 1.8 for the rest of my life on this server! it will take just a long time to just change versions :P i hate dis like look

 

I am honestly really excited for the new 1.9 update, the reason being is that in my opinion, im tired of all the so called "PvP professionals" that use macros and jitter clicking as a way to fight, in my opinion thats sort of cheating at a fight and makes it incredibly easy to win. plus its practically impossible to even fight because i can go out into a fight zone with somewhat decent armor that can withstand a few hits, then all of a sudden, one of these "PvP Pros" comes and kills me in less than a few seconds. its again extremely impossible to kill these types of opponents because of the exploits and cheats that some people use. but with 1.9, that all changes.

In the newest snapshot, the mojang devs re-balanced armor so now diamond armor is a bit weaker. as it used to reduce damage up to about 80%, but now it only reduces damage to about 66%. so even in some Protection 4 diamond armor, your only getting about the same damage reduction as an old set of diamond armor.

Now instead of using these exploits, you actually have to form tactics and creative ways to defeat your opponent. instead of running in swinging your sword in a rapid succession.

Honestly, i have to thank the mojang devs for this, as i might start learning how to fight better :) and actually be good in this player vs player gamemode.

 

When you take a year and a half to learn to pvp then it changes as soon as youre good.

 

^ And 1.9 sucks

 

*And then hackers find ways to disable and bypass the cooldown* well that was good while it lasted.

 

Eh, 1.9 isn't going to be the best I'd have to agree.. 1.8 on my opinion wasn't the best, I prefered 1.7, if it where pvp wise, 1.7 might be the best version to use, 1.8 removed the sword block hitting so that kinda sucks on my opinion.

 

Well, the cooldown isn't stopping you from hitting, it just means that spam clicking is the equivalent to poking.
So I guess hacked clients can still do spam clicking, but SC'ing is rendered useless so :P

 

Lol, people find ways. And 1.9 is going to be the worst. All the people on this thread antagonizing jitterclicking. That's not the only thing we do? We have to strafe, combo, aim , refill and somehow have to keep the mindset of not wasting to much pots or soups. Jitterclicking is not a mindless thing. Takes practice and it's not cheating lmao, were just clicking faster than most. If you were actually in the PVP lets say group, you would strongly oppose of 1.9, but just people who can't pvp well try to make excuses and say now 1.9 is going to be "my" time. First of all, if servers update im leaving. And for TheDiamondPicks, look at all the hacks they have made so far pertaining to the same idea of refresh. (FastFood, FastBreak, etc.).

 

It actually is? It's literally spamming M1 and following a target, sorta like the scrubbish W+M1 Pyros in TF2.

I think that positioning takes more knowledge than jitter clicking. No doubt that you still need to break & whatnot, but at the same time you need to do more than simply swing a sword & attack. Refer to the post shown below for more.

 

The new pvp way sucks

 

Because you need to actually think? Yeah, I can see why it's bad.

 

Oh so now you're gonna call me dumb. You can have an opinion, and I can have mine, but respect it.
