Minecraft Week News: Twitter announced the 2021 game rankings, Minecraft ranked eighth; Bedrock Edition was renewed again, frogs no longer eat goats; due to Covid-19 relationships, minecraft live event in January was postponed.
1. Twitter announces 2021 game rankings; this week, Twitter announced the 2021 annual game list, and the top ten are in order of list: "Original God", "Apex Hero", "Idol Dream Festival", "Final Fantasy", "Destiny - Crown Designation", "Animal Forest Friends", "Wilderness Action", "Minecraft", "Project Sekai", "Fortnite". Note that the calculation logic of this list is based on the number of times the name of the game is mentioned.
Many people may have noticed that Minecraft only ranked 8th, is Minecraft cold? First of all, mc players need to recognize the fact that Minecraft's community is not actually mainly active on Twitter, and secondly, the games mentioned here include various platforms, and mc players need to recognize that there is not even Minecraft in this top 10 list in 2020. If you only compare the data from last year to this year, minecraft's popularity is rising.
However, "Original God" can land on the first place in the list, which really makes domestic game manufacturers excited. Once the kryptonite of domestic games was really ugly, and now there is a game of excellent quality that can be recognized by players around the world, which is a very representative thing. Secondly, the original god itself is a worldview that combines Chinese and Western cultures, which also paves the way for the adaptation of globalization. And Minecraft has also begun a drastic reform from the trough of the previous few years, and as a whole, this list also has its own remarkable places. (Of course, the act of swiping tickets is not excluded)
2, this week Minecraft 1.19 update progress: Bedrock Edition Update to Beta 1.18.10.27, the main update is to fix the frog can swallow a goat This strange bug, but also fixed a major bug: that is, the player will disappear after a long trip, and the problem of mismatch between the color material of the paddles of the ship has been adjusted. There is no new 1.19 Wilderness update.
In contrast, the JAVA version still has no progress in the wilderness update. It seems that Mojang is still on vacation, and there is no new news about the release of the 1.19 snapshot so far. According to the preemptive update and exclusive setting that the goat can knock off a goat's horn, perhaps the new "frog light" of Bedrock Edition may also become an exclusive new content? Look.
Minecraft Now #2 will be postponed; Minecraft Now is a live event with Mojang on Minecraft's official channel, with millions of streams streaming almost every show in December. However, it entered the 2022 Minecraft Now #2再也没有了音讯. The latest time shows that the next live event will be on February 11.
A few days ago, the official announcement was issued that due to the Covid-19 epidemic, the entire January Minecraft Now live broadcast event has been postponed, and the latest date is currently set for February 11, but this will also be a corresponding challenge depending on the specific epidemic situation and policies in February, but we will return to the usual live broadcast as soon as possible. Mojang announced.
Finally, an anecdote: What are Minecraft developers doing while they're on vacation? It was snowing in Stockholm, and they were building snowmen. PS: Why not build a snowman in Minecraft? In fact, many years ago, the entrance to the Mojang building was piled with a snow golem all winter.
