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.

    1.22 is gonna become the new 1.9.

    In 1.9 we got the combat nerfed, a bad thing that splitted the community in a half, forcing players to keep playing at 1.8, so they can still playing competitively. And now that the 1.9+ combat is getting more recognized and "respected" by the community, you guys decided to nerf bridging, strafing and parkour, all at once? C'mon Mojang.

    Honestly, this shouldn't even have to be a vote, Mojang should not add anything boring. Minecraft is a game of creativity, and these bugs support that. Creativity is not only building things with redstone and making everything look good. Creative solutions and creative bug usage is equally, if not more, important. Creativity is the fundamental soul of Minecraft.

    These changes affect fundamentals that have at this point become features, I have no idea why Mojang calls them bugs. I'm really hoping they revert the changes.

    Why do this to have parity between Bedrock and Java, especially with "normalization" of movement when there is no front block placing on Java? It'd make more sense to leave this alone just so that the physics of the game does not feel unfamiliar.

    Is gonna not only kill how parkour works but also worst a LOT how pvp works, if this keep for the actually update, it will make a bunch of jumps now impossible and pvp will be about going forwards and hope that you hit first and who does the better w-tap/s-tap

    Mojang should really listen to the community these small bugs exist for years even decades essentially becoming a part of the game the players involve it in every aspect what's the point in changing it? make it an intended feature for example quasi connectivity its a devastating sight to see mojang kill its community

    hope this petition is follwed through

    Such ridiculous change. Why would you even tune speed down after so many years? I mean. Experimental changes are cool, but tuning down speed is something that should be out of your cook book, it's essentially removing fun. Who is in charge of your decision making, Microsoft? Also it's not a bug, duh. "Quake" is a feature.

    While I know that you can always use a different version, I know that a lot of people always try to use the newest one, and I myself get really annoyed when I want to join a server but it is a different version than the one I'm playing. While many people adapted to the 1.9 update, this new update would completely change, and could even ruin the parkour community. I really hope they don't put this into the final update, and that they revert to how it was before.

    bedwars without bridging fast by tilting sideways is not something I want to experience. Please don't get rid of the bug! It's like an element of the game now! Why would you change it after this many years?

    There's no point in making a game more boring on purpose. I have a personal life for that. I hope you, Mojang, strongly consider not implementing this "fix". Revert pls.

    Please revert the changes, you guys are literally about to destroy almost everything the community has managed to build up, both in parkour and in pvp, so we ask that you please kindly revert these changes so that the players can be happy or even if possible give a reasonable reason why you want to make these changes or even improve them

    MC-241951 is not fixed apparently, which means this peition is only half done. If the other bug remains removed, then the parkour may suffer.

    If it was an issue, it would've been fixed AGES AGO. Changing it now seems unfair and rude.

    This is a important mechanic of Minecraft that shouldn't be changed. If this change isn't reverted everyone will have to change the way we bridge and parkour in minigames. It will disadvantage players on the new versions playing on 1.8 servers. Strafing in new pvp will be killed, so all 1.21 pvp servers can't upgrade their server version, once again disadvantaging players on the new version. Mojang are trying to make the game more realistic and to fix "bugs" but if 45 strafing is such a bug then it should've been patched years ago and no one would've even cared. You can't just go and change a well known mechanic of the game and disappoint thousands of people and then claim it was a big problem after 15 years. I strongly recommend everyone to vote to revert this change. Please revert it Mojang!

    Camman18 even talked about this, it's become a PART of minecraft. Aka, these things have turned into a FEATURE. And features should not be removed.

     

    Now the jump off of 2 blocks and take damage, that was something that I think should have been fixed. Its completely fine to change that. 

     

    I'm not in either speedbridging or parkour, but I am a new player who likes these FEATURES that have been in the game for YEARS.

     

    Mojang, lol, WE WIN THESE.
