Minecraft News This Week: Minecraft Legends was released this week, with mixed reviews so far, a good percentage of bad reviews, community update suggestions for Legends, and the progress of Minecraft Original 1.20 development.
1. "Minecraft Saga" is officially released this week! It can be said that the entire community has been brushed by the legend, and the Minecraft official is not working hard to promote the Minecraft legend. At present, the price on the Steam platform is the lowest in the world, and the reviews on the platform are also mixed, with a positive rating of only 64% of the total reviews. Usually, players after shallow play recommend that they can pay for Minecraft IP, which is a creative gameplay outside of "Minecraft". But after playing deeply for a while, the problem of the singleness of the content of the Minecraft saga leaked out, such as the campaign mode is the same, the game content is extremely short, PVP cannot communicate, etc., and the gameplay alone is far less than the original Minecraft. There are also reviews that the game is as boring as Minecraft Dungeons!
PS: I personally recommend that the legend is higher than the dungeon, of course, the current price of the STEAM platform 119 is really too high compared to its game content and the original Minecraft, and the official price is not recommended. Players who haven't started before can wait for a wave of discounts.
2. Update suggestions for Minecraft legends:
(1) Minecraft Legends is undergoing an update to allow friends to join the same team before PvP matchmaking.
(2) In the face of the current refund situation of many people in Minecraft Legend (Steam can be refunded if it meets the conditions), players suggest that for the long tutorial of the legend itself, a tutorial ending prompt should be added.
(3) It is recommended that you can perform split-screen operation when playing multiplayer games with 2/3/4 players on the same device and co-op campaigns or PVP.
(4) Add PVP chat, even if there is no voice communication in text chat.
(5) Solve the problem of the game crashing inexplicably, it seems that the crash has no reason, for example, on the fifth day of the save it strangely cannot be opened.
3. Where was Minecraft Bedrock Edition developed? We've always thought that Mojang is the main development of the Java Edition and the Microsoft is the main development of the Bedrock Edition. That is, Sweden's Stockholm office is mainly responsible for the development of the JAVA version, while the Mojang satellite office in Redmond, Washington, is mainly responsible for the development of the bedrock version. So for a long time everyone thought so: Sweden had the Java office, Washington was the bedrock office.
But recently, Minecraft developers unexpectedly said on social platforms that the Bedrock Edition game was actually developed in Stockholm and has been going on for many years. So, shall we stop saying that Bedrock was developed by Microsoft and Java was developed by Mojang?
4. The latest snapshot 23w06a has a problem that may cause the game to crash. Mojang just fixed this issue and didn't release a new snapshot to fix it, you just need to close all programs and launchers. Turn the 23w06a back on once to automatically update the crash and fix the crash.
5. Suggestions on map updates; Players in the community say that the console version of the year is the best way to place the entire Minecraft map. Because in this version the map can show the coordinates of the player's location. THIS ALLOWS JAVA PLAYERS TO SEE EXACTLY WHERE THEY ARE WITHOUT STARTING THE F3 DEBUG SCREEN, WHICH MAKES THE MAP THE TOP ITEM THAT EVERYONE CAN BALANCE WITH THEIR BELONGINGS, BECAUSE YOU DON'T HAVE TO THINK ABOUT WHETHER TO USE A MAP OR A COMPASS. Mojang can also upgrade the way the map is composited, for example, the map synthesized with a compass can display coordinates? This also solves the problem that the compass may not be useful.
6. Minecraft 1.20 update progress:
JAVA EDITION: Snapshot 23w16a Released! Mainly based on the strong opposition and suggestions of community players, Mojang readjusted and reworked the structure of the footprint ruins, such as adding more types of structures, removing the generation of sand, adjusting the amount of gravel, suspicious gravel, and dirt, and the overall structure of the footprint ruins is clearer.
Bedrock Edition Beta & Preview 1.20.0.21 Released! There is no new content, mainly for the many suspicious blocks in 1.20, clay pot ornaments, bottle grass, stealth sensor, calibration frequency stealth sensor, billboard, sniffer beast and other feature fixes and feature synchronization.
Now that the release of the Minecraft saga has come to an end, it's time for Mojang to update 1.20.
