Lol Snapshot 15w24b might be permanent

[aaronben]

If you look at the Youtube comments for the Snapshot review Videos, you can see the arrogant comments saying "Yay PvP takes skill now." and "NOW U HAVE TO BE GOOD". Well news flash, PVP does take skill, and its not just spam clicking. Worst part is, those comments have the most likes, so gg.

PvP was slain by arrogant SMP Kids.

What is the purpose of this ?...

 

[redikus]

I'm not sure what is this thread...

 

[aaronben]

Lemme clean up this thread,
so a new snapshot adds a feature that you have to wait a few seconds to attack, most of the arrogant kids on Youtube saying this "helps PvP" because they think PvP is just click spamming

Stop raging, attack speed will be editable.

If you see it when hovering over the item in your inv, it's likely going to be a datatag. Datatags, for all you command newbies, is a special tag in curly brackets that lets you edit lots of things, and I guarantee attack strength will soon (if not already) be changeable. Therefore MCSG can set the recharge to be almost instantaneus, problem solved.

Stop squirting every time a new update is coming, it's just annoying at this point.

1) It's a snapshot; and an early one. It won't be permanent.

2) The PvP timer thing that we all dislike is editable.

They didn't have to make this update so complicated. Simply removing the sprint key would fix all of PvP. It would add more skill, but still keep most of the same mechanics that people enjoy and not changing too much about the game (which people seem to hate).

But, I am excited to see PvP be changed. Whether you are willing to admit it or not, PvP doesn't take as much skill as it used to. I'm not saying there's no skill involved, but a good amount of the time I feel like it's pretty luck-based, whether I win or lose.

Well as i already said 1.9 sucks but this time 1.9 sucks more

 

[gizmobrick]

I wonder PvP would still be good in 1.9 if we were able to (somehow) turn off the attack timer? I sorta doubt it because they removed the ability to get critical hits while sprinting, AND the ability to block with the sword...
