    Minecraft A custom Java Edition snapshot to test new combat mechanics


    A custom Java Edition snapshot to test new combat mechanics

    Posted: 26 Jun 2019 12:17 AM PDT

    The combat mechanics in Java Edition have been a controversial topic ever since the 1.9 update. We want the mechanics to be the same across all editions, but simply porting Java to Bedrock or vice versa is not taking us forward. We want to find a system that is flexible and works well across all input devices.

    Main issues in Java Edition,

    • Too slow for PvP - not exciting enough
    • Damage per second is too low to beat regenerating items
    • Too hard to understand for new players

    Main issues in Bedrock,

    • Tedious on controller (Legacy editions fixed this)
    • Weapons are very similar
    • Armor is not balanced

    This "manually installed Java snapshot" is the first experiment of the new direction of combat mechanics. It's based upon the current Java Edition system, but with the following major changes:

    • Overall much faster attacks
    • Attacks only happen when fully charged, even if you spam click
    • You can hold to attack
    • Weapons have different reach (attack range)
    • When you stop attacking, the attack timer will continue charging to 200%
    • At 200% you can perform special attacks (crits, sweeping, knockback) and these attacks have longer reach
    • Sweeping only occurs on swords with the Sweeping enchantment
    • Critical attacks (jump attacks) bypass shields
    • Shields have no warm-up delay
    • Shields also activate when crouching/sneaking
    • If you hit something, the target's "invulnerability timer" will be shorter if you have a quick weapon

    Please comment and critique, and give suggestions on where to go from here.

    Installation instructions:

    Finding the Minecraft application folder:

    • Windows: Press Ctrl+R and type %appdata%/.minecraft and press Ok
    • Mac OS X: In Finder, in the Go menu, select "Go to Folder" and enter ~/Library/Application Support/minecraft
    • Linux: ~/.minecraft or /home/<your username>/.minecraft/

    Once you have the launcher set up you can download the server files from there as well.

    Cheers!
