Petition to Revert Movement Changes MC-271065 and MC-241951 (WE WIN THESE!)

released

THANK YOU MOJANG FOR LISTENING TO US!!!!

- Erasmian <3

On behalf of the parkour and speedbridging communities, bug fixes MC-271065 and MC-241951 need to be reverted. Furthermore, these are actually considered features to many high-level parkour players and speed-bridgers, and should be classified as such.

Taking away the 40% speed increase along the diagonal will hurt a lot of mechanics, maps, and techniques that depend on this, both in parkour and speedbridging. Such a major rework will hurt these communities in the long and short term. This "bug" has established use in these communities, and will frankly affect more than just them. For example, as a user shared here, building in survival will be much more tedious, since placing blocks will be considerably slower on roofs, for example.

Also, taking away the individual axis cancellation of movement at slow speeds significantly impacts sidestep, which is hugely important in parkour and speedbridging. This is a common effect in video games often implemented purposefully, such as b-hopping in CS:GO or Quake. It will negatively impact the movement experience in Minecraft and make it more wooden and stiff.

I think there is no need to implement any of these changes. This will affect the casual experience by purposefully nerfing player movement, and it will affect high-level play significantly; that, in turn, will hurt Minecraft's longevity and force players to older versions. Please, Mojang, do NOT implement these changes.

    Please consider more what the players want and what they don't in the game! Updates are for the PLAYERS not the other way around.

    For both Microsoft and Mojang:


    If your goal is to make Minecraft and Bedrock feel the same, then don't make Minecraft worse, when you could just improve Bedrock to match.

    long term 1.9+ pvper here, this change basically fundamentally changes everything in movement that makes it so much more diverse than other games with set movement caps. Parkour in minecraft is so versatile and has a high skill ceiling because of small "bugs" like this.

    we need this back. I am new at minecraft parkour, and ive been putting time into things like the 45 strafe, its more fun to have imperfections in the game, it makes it actually fun. if minecraft had no imperfections then people would enjoy it less and less. its not fun to play a game with strict gameplay.

    At this point, they might aswell remove creepers. They were also a bug since the alpha days.

    I feel like both mojang and the community are missing the point. Mojang wants the bug gone (because it is a bug, its an oversight in the code that makes diagonal movement faster than orthogonal movement), and the community wants the speed. Just fix the bug but buff the speed so that you move as fast as before but in every direction. That way the bug is gone but the speed is retained, without the need to move diagonally and know this obscure movement quirk. Please don't claim that moving diagonally was somehow the important part, or that it was skillful or something like that. Just buff the speed for every direction and patch the bug.

    In my opinion the normalization of the movement is a bug. So the fix is to revert it. Let us play the game like god intended! Unite everyone! For we are Steve!

    I agree. It was never an issue for players, it doesn't matter if the code or logic is wrong, for players this is what always made sense and it should stay that way.

    this was one of my favorite bugs and removing it basically ruins advanced parkour, bridging, and pvp
