Caves Update

released

Hi !

We spend a lot of times in caves in minecraft but they didn't get any new or exiting features since a long time, that's why I think a cave update is due !

Some ideas :

- Caves biomes of diferent types of caves depending on the biome it's generated into, for example : Ice caves, bats infested caves, lava caves, etc

- Stalagmite and Stalagtite in caves, should be blocky, maybe like cobblestone walls

- More mushroms in thsoe caves?

- Mobs spawning only in caves?

There is a lot that could be done so that just some ideas, also the nether is a big caves, so it could be updated at the same time !

    What I think is that it would be good, the updating of the caves, because it can be useful since there are two types of blocks in Minecraft that cannot be used, (at present) that are the table of blacksmithing and the feathered table since more minerals can be added, and that can only be built on those work tables, so the updating of the caves would be very good and,that we could have a miner that can exchange us as minerals, weaponry, ect since we can find it only in the caves or mines but that that it was very rare to find and give expensive prices like the villagers but that can give more than other things and for that reason, I think it would be a great update and that they can add more mods stubborn and non-stubborn for better experience and one mini bosses to be more interesting that's why I vote for the update of the caves

    I think there should be new ores like salt salt will be found in the water and you can make stuff salted but you get thirst when you eat it more ore like copper rubys nether gold and other but you can make armor out of it

    It would be great to tell you: let's go to a cave, something like a construction, whether they only update the mines that are already there or make small abandoned villages between the land or something similary. It would also be great as what they say, epic treasure chests although that would not combine well with the theme of the game, since Minecraft is based more on the natural than on the fantasy.

    I would like you to take in the cave update miners, spiders, mining skeletons, new minerals such as copper, platinum or silver, ruby ​​ect ... in the caves that have cobwebs, mold, stalactites ect ... Finally, it would be nice to get a boss, spider or stone monster with all the minerals.

    New caves maybe a challenge but I'm hoping we get new items to help explore it

    Yes I love this idea, and also they should add stuff like Tungsten, Tin, Silver, Ruby, Sapphire, and all that stuff
    "and more industrial machinery."

    Seria bueno. Que al mismo tiempo agregaran nuevos mobs y también luna mini jefe. Dentro de cuevas especiales y algúnos mobs hostiles para aumentar la dificultad y la experiencia de este maravilloso juego espero que nuestros comentarios sean tomados en cuenta para una actualización de las cuevas :)

         I have read alot of great ideas in the comments adding to the Cave Update suggestion. I see many want things like natural formations, cave dwelling mobs and villages, news ores and tools and blocks, and even areas with higher difficulty levels. All are very exciting and could really spice up the underground after the Nether Update.

         In addintion to the various suggestions for a more natural and unique cave envirionment i would like to propose cave paintings, broken pottery, arrow heads, and relics. With the upcoming Nether Update and the Villager and Pillager AI update it has brought a new sentient world into focus. I believe adding in the Native Ancenstor rarity could be similiar to that of the fossils found in deserts.

     

      Lastly if a cave update indeed is in our future, I would love to see it as a Geology update, adding in minerals, metals, and natural formations and maybe a rare mob or two. Earth has its own natural layer system, and it could be really neat seeing some visual representaion of your elevation as you mine away the debris, this may just be to much to add. A new villager proffesion and job could also be created, The Geologist. Possibly a Jewler or something to trade your rubies with. The education edition could also benefit from this Geology Update.

    @TippiestComet63

    I agree with the idea of making the geology more realistic. Currently the only distinguishing factors between elevations, besides the technical Y value, are "is there a lot of lava rivers" and "can strongholds spawn". It's really quite boring, honestly, and as I stated in my previous comment, hasn't changed in like, 7 years. So much has been added to the surface, oceans, and even The End, yet despite the game being MINEcraft, mining has been relatively unchanged. But I digress.
    Back to your suggestion about geology, I seem to recall a Forge mod from 1.7 that did something to this effect. I forget the name of it but it was used as part of the Blightfall pack and added several new types of stone. Instead of just stone, diorite, stone, andesite, granite, stone (yes I said stone 3 times), and (as a lot of other mods have added) marble & basalt, there were some new ones and even a few completely alien types (fitting, considering that pack was set on an alien planet), all of which could be categorized into one of the three major types of rock that are arguably central to geology: metamorphic, igneous, and sedimentary. It really gave the environment a more natural, realistic feel to it.

    Edit: found the name! It was called Underground Biome Constructs, and added like 13 or so types of rock for each of the 3 categories

    Hi! Just an idea I was thinking about. So maybe we can get temple like structures, that look old and broken. Inside holds valuable treasure, but... it is guarded by a golem or monster like creature!

     What about a zombie miner  it always SpawnsWith a pickax it has a chance of dropping that pickax and has a chance of dropping ore and if it hits you it does Three hearts and gives you  mining fatigue 2

    Yeah, Minecraft needs cave update and some new cave specific mobs like Medusa and Miner Illager (Medusa gives slowness, is rare, has 30hp and has good loot like new enchantment "decelerator", It stops the target for a short time and Miner Illager is an illager that uses iron pickaxe as weapon and mines ores with it and they has some bases called "Mining Huts" that are like pillager outposts but they are in caves, looks like houses and can contain ore maps that shows a secret ore point) but new cave biomes and items are good ideas too👍
