For the past 8 years, minecraft 1.8 has managed to remain one of minecrafts most played versions, primarily for its PvP mechanics. Yet, things are finally changing, and 1.8 for the first time is beginning to see a decline in popularity…

NOOOO I STILL WANT 1.8.9 NOOOOOOOO :((((

Marie Fischer says:

I've never liked PvP, so the 1.9+ combat has always felt better to me. Far more balanced. When farming large numbers of mobs, I'd much prefer to use a sweeping edge sword and kill the whole clump in a couple clicks, rather then clinking time and time again. And all the little rules become second nature naturally- you don't have to learn anything outside of the game to be at least decent. Not to mention that as someone with anxiety that combat can set on high… yeah, being able to actually get at least one hit in edgewise is nice, even if I'll never be great in PvP lol

My friend told me that I quit pvp because I was bad, but in reality I was getting bored. Even if I was indeed the best terrible player, I don't see any enjoyment. There was just one loop everytime. Play – launch – queue – kill – win/lose – continue playing – quit – bored – repeat

PVP has grown on me, since I've started playing 2 years ago and I've officially retired. I just want to play survival which isn't that stressful

I started in 1.8.9 but when 1.9 came out i became a crystal pvper since 1.11

hugh says:

1.8 pvp is only so popular because bedrock uses it still

Scarlet Azumii says:

In my opinion, 1.8 pvp is still living only because big servers (being cheater-infested lolol) are still pushing it, and cheat clients are still being developed for 1.8.x and lower.
As a moderator/developer on a small Asia network consisting of Practice (1.16+) and SMP (1.19), I have been able to see that 1.9+ combat introduced more and more combat methods/technique/weapons to satisfy players than 1.8.x and below. Crystal, Respawn Anchors, etc.

Anyways, have a great day MisterEpic! 💝

I have been around the community for awhile and something that grinds my gears are the newer players Constantly saying they are better then they try to out think me trap me in bedrock and what ever so I escape by using tricks older minecraft players know yet they just say I'm hacking

Ouvriermacane says:

the big reason I like 1.8 pvp is for the stability that Minecraft has getting easily 300+ fps without mods while having 60-70 on 1.19

FuzionVoid says:

I mean 1.8 combat is just jump and click fast while 1.9 is Shield axe then swing with a sword and crystal pvp so idk how 1.8 is more confusing

PugNinja says:

Can bedrock edition get the combat update now? pls

Samexahr says:

1.8 was one of my favourite updates, more for what is added than what came after. I'm a builder so PvP changes don't really affect me. At the time I was concerned it would make everyday gameplay more tricky (with the cooldowns) but now I naturally delay my hits often to the extreme perhaps as a result of trying to used to 1.9.
I think it's good that they are looking into improving the current system of combat, that will probably be what kills 1.8 combat outside of revisiting old versions for curiosity or nestogia. I say that but the new controversy is chat reporting, which may keep 1.8 combat going over a future combat update due to them both being related to multiplayer. Then again there are mods around these things and chat reporting doesn't tend to work on big servers anyway as I understand. I suppose older servers which run on older versions have the advantage of getting the players who play older versions as they can support players from 1.8 onwards.

JoePCool14 says:

The fact that 1.8 is still alive is comparable to how Smash Bros Melee is still alive. 1.8 will likely never completely die, but I think it will continue to decline. And as a player who picked up the game when Release 1.4 was around, I'm all here for it. I'd like to see big networks move on.
