Ok but like let’s be real who actually fights with their wolves instead of just leaving them sitting in their base somewhere. Can the armor be dyed? That might help a bit
People don’t fight with their dogs because they die too easily, that’s what they’re fixing.
I feel like letting pets/horses respawn sitting at pet beds/hay bales would massively increase their useage. You’d still have to go back home if you want to keep exploring with them, but not you can have some investment without easily losing everything.
Some smarter AI that actively avoids lava and cactus would be nice. Retreating when hurt could be good too.
Looks like a flesh suit
Is that wolf armor?
Oh goshdarnit, I was so confused why they made the wolf fur this weird salmon/brick color. Apparently, that’s an armadillo shell…? They really turned Minecraft into modded Minecraft, didn’t they?
Let’s not besmirch the name of modded Minecraft. I just got my mekanism fission reactor running and the nuclear fallout from messing that up would make a 8 chunk area unlivable for 29 game days.
Vanilla can have it’s fucking armadillos, lol.
Vanilla Minecraft gets less and less “vanilla” every year.
I mean, it’s been getting regular updates for 15 years now. Of course it’s going to change.
They did also add fur variants based on the biome they spawn in
I mean, I can get behind that. It doesn’t increase gameplay complexity and people enjoy having their doggos in different colors.
But adding a whole new mob and items for one specific niche purpose, that increases complexity quite a bit. New players will have no idea what to do with the armadillo drops, without looking it up or being told by that AI narrator thing, I guess.
How is it bad that you have to figure something out in a game?
I’m not saying there shouldn’t be puzzles. I’m criticizing that this puzzle is impossible to solve.
No one will wish to protect their dog and then realize they need to place 6 armadillo scutes in a chair-like pattern into a crafting grid.Some might try to brute-force crafting patterns with armadillo scutes, but that is not fun.
And just looking up what to do with armadillo scutes, that is not fun either.I can see your point. Other have sad that it should follow the horsearmor pattern. Which would make it a guess like “I wonder if I can use this animal part like the other animal parts which fill the same role.”
That way you could formulate an educated guess and be happy when it turns out right.
I really hate that this was the only reason Armadillos won the stupid mob vote.
No one (from chat and what I’ve seen) actually cares about the armadillo. They only wanted to wolves to be more viable hunting partners in survival.
Im pretty sure that every mob vote ever has been rigged/predetermined
Why would that be the case? All the mob votes winners were popular options
1.19(.4) was the last good version of minecraft change my mind
The one update when they broke the Community made minecart accelerstors (that actually was a Bug) was the worst. Must be 0.4 or sth. like that. 😛
