400 Insane Minecraft Secrets You Didn’t Know!

400 things veteran players know about Minecraft back in the earlier days of Minecraft in the alpha days there was a unique World type where it would be snowing all the time in Alpha when creating a save you had a one in four chance to get the world where it would

Always be snowing no matter how far you travel now if you remember this unique World type then you are a Minecraft veteran in Alpha and beta the protection of your armor was entirely based on durability this meant a badly damaged diamond armor would provide less protection than a fully durable piece of

Leather armor which is just that what is this this was such a silly feature and if you remember this then you are a Minecraft veteran spiders used to be op this was because spiders before 1.8 could track and see players through walls this was terrifying as I’d be

Caving in the beta days and spiders would just jump scare me out of nowhere this feature also caused spiders to always be on ceilings due to them climbing up the wall on the other side this would then sometimes cause the spiders to drop on your head from above

Which was even more terrifying if you played Minecraft in the alpha and beta days then you’ll definitely remember when the spruce trees in Tiger biomes would give you Oak wooden planks since Oak was the only plank type at the time the spruce and birch trees just gave you

Oak planks as well which was kind of weird looking back but yeah if you remember every tree type giving you Oak planks then you definitely a veteran player is it just me or does looking at this old 2D door Sprite give me a huge amount of nostalgia but don’t know man

Everything about doors in Alpha and beta are a huge throwback and the old door Sprite is no exception so we all know that water in Minecraft today changes color shade depending on the biome but if you’re a Minecraft veteran the only water you’ll remember is the vibrant

Blue Water that looks like this is it weird that I’m getting so much Nostalgia just looking at this water reminds me of a simpler time man oh my god do you guys remember when slimes in the old days were really hard to find since swamp biomes didn’t exist at the time the only

Way you could find slimes was deep within cave systems and even this was a rare encounter but the main way you’d know if you found slimes was by hearing those iconic distinct old sounds for the slimes take a listen seriously if you remember these old slime sounds then you are a veteran

Player these are so old if you were a Minecraft alpha or beta player then you’ll definitely remember when clay was once one of the hardest blocks to find that’s right with Clay being rarer than diamonds at the time coming across this block was exciting but also kind of

Underwhelming as the only thing you could do with it was craft bricks then again considering how little building blocks we had back then we weren’t really spoiled for choice and couldn’t really complain let’s be real and speaking of bricks if you guys remember the old texture for bricks from the

Alpha and beta days then you’re definitely a veteran player I mean players at the time had such a divided opinion on bricks with some saying it was great for building whilst others said it was straight up ugly back in the earlier days of Minecraft sugar cane was originally called reads now if you

Remember when it was called reads then you’re definitely a veteran player because sugarcane was called this over 12 years ago so we all know that pink sheep are a rare find in Minecraft but we’re still familiar with how they look however if you played Minecraft in the olden days then you’ll definitely

Remember when the pink sheep had a much lighter shade of pink for their wall looking back at them they honestly look kind of strange compared to the vibrant pink sheep we have now but yeah if you’re a veteran player you’ll probably remember these if you played Minecraft

In the alpha or beta days then most of you likely built your base within a mountain or a cave this was due to Minecraft not having many blocks yet so players had two choices they could either build the same blocky ugly wooden house that looked the same as every

Other blocky wooden house or they could build a lovely Mountain Base that Blended in beautifully with the beta terrain did you build a wooden house or a Mountain Base let me know in the comments back in the earlier days of Minecraft boats in the alpha and beta

Days were terrible but also amazing at the same time this was because Boats were used as the fastest way to travel in Minecraft beta this was done by placing a bunch of boats on their own blocks next to each other forming what was called a boat bridge at the time you

Could then travel by sitting in a boat and right clicking on the other boats as you progressed across the bridge so yeah if you remember this extremely fast way to travel in a boat then you are a veteran player if you played Minecraft in version beta 1.8 then you might

Remember when every block in the game had messed up inventory textures this was because the Li effects on all the block textures were missing so every block basically had no shading which looked absolutely terrible but yeah if you remember this then you’re definitely a veteran player or we’re both just

Weird because let’s be real hardly anyone noticed this oh my god do you guys remember back to a time where Minecraft worlds only took like one to two seconds to create man that was a beautiful time because nowadays in Minecraft worlds take like 10 years to

Create I mean I get there’s a lot of features in the game now but I just think back to Beta and how quickly a world would create boy oh boy did I take this for granted because it just takes forever now I still love your Minecraft don’t worry do you guys remember when

Chests in the game would only face the West Direction when they were placed by the player because I do man was it so annoying because the only way players could fix this back in the day was by creating a double chest or placing the single chest against a wall but yeah if

You remember the chest always facing the same way then you’re definitely a veteran player I’m sure a lot of you Minecraft veterans remember exploring a cave in the beta days and hearing this sound or this sound or even this Sound man the cave sounds are definitely one of the creepiest things about Minecraft but there was something even scarier about hearing these cave sound in an empty isolating alpha or beta version if you’re a Minecraft veteran then you’ll definitely know what I’m talking about because Alpha and beta was

Scary man oh my god do you guys remember the free version of Minecraft classic that you could play on the Minecraft website this was awesome man it was a great way for players who couldn’t afford Minecraft to try out the basic building aspect of the game or you know

You could have been one of those players that just cracked Minecraft back then but yeah if you remember being able to play Minecraft Classic on the website then you’re definitely a veteran player do you guys remember back to a time where passive mobs would constantly spawn in your Minecraft world even after

You’ve generated the nearby chunks in Minecraft today once a passive mob spawns within a specific chunk no more animals will be able to spawn within that chunk this leads to a lot of dead areas in your world that won’t be able to spawn any new animals which can be

Kind of annoying this is why passive in Alpha and beta would always be spawning because there was no cap on how many passive mobs could spawn within a chunk so yeah if you remember this then you’re definitely a veteran player back in the earlier days of Minecraft players were

Able to open and close doors by punching them whereas in Minecraft today punching a door does well nothing if you opened the door by punching it then you are a veteran player at one point in Minecraft water was a bit dangerous this was because players could take damage Dage

And die if the water was only one block high now if you were one of those players that died in water back in the day let me know in the comments because I know how it feels creepers in Minecraft used to be a lot scarier this was because when they were about to

Explode they would do this weird thing where they would strafe towards the player and then explode which was just terrifying in Minecraft today when creepers explode they just sort of stand there and accept their fate so yeah if you remember the old creeper movement then you are a Minecraft veteran if you

Guys remember when the Ender Dragon health bar said boss Health instead of Ender Dragon then you have been playing Minecraft for a long long time if you played Minecraft in the alpha and beta days then you will remember how useless the nether was I’m not joking all you

Could do was collect glow stone get shot by ghosts collect more glow stone and then get shot by more Ghasts there were no Nether fortresses no Blazers no wither skeletons no piglins I think you get the point it was just boring do you guys remember when you could switch your

Tools while breaking a block to save on durability because I do for example you could be breaking some stone with your diamond pick and quickly switch to the wooden pick to save dur ability on your diamond one it probably wasn’t that efficient but it was just a cool thing

To do I guess if you remember when skeletons held their bows like this then you are an old school player I mean it’s no wonder skeletons had terrible aim back in the day they’re not even holding the bow properly back in the earlier days of Minecraft villagers had a chance

To at with this iconic blacksmith structure these were awesome as they were the only structure in a village to contain a chest and sometimes the loot was just insane as you’d find things such as diamonds or obsidian so yeah if you remember these blacksmith structures then you are a veteran player if you

Played Minecraft in the alpha days of the game then you’ll definitely remember when smooth stone slabs were crafted by using three Cobblestone it definitely didn’t it make sense but hey a lot of things didn’t make sense in Alpha so let’s move on if you were a Minecraft

Player in the alpha and beta days you will definitely know the pain of your Farms constantly being destroyed by mobs this was because even if you just walked over a farm it would get destroyed and it was so annoying man another thing about farms in Alpha and most of beta

That was pretty lame is that fence gates didn’t exist this meant if you were to place fences around your farm the only way to safely get in and out was by placing a door and I have to say it looked very ugly and I’m sure some of you remember this if you played

Minecraft in Alpha and most of beta then you might remember when the fishing rod texture when casted looked identical to the stick texture I mean just look at this it’s literally just a stick with a fishing line attached to it it looked so weird man if you played Minecraft when

Version beta 1.8 was released then you will definitely remember how a hype to the community was when the Enderman was first added I mean seriously L the first time you accidentally looked at an Enderman and had them randomly teleport next to you it was just terrifying man

No one really expected it speaking of the Enderman when it was first announced to be added someone made a fan-made video of it and if you’re a veteran player you might remember it take a [Applause] Look I remember this video scaring me so much when I first watched it man if you’ve been playing Minecraft long enough you will know the pain of loading up an old world that you made in let’s say 2013 and seeing your pet dogs just waiting there for your return Minecraft dogs

Really are the most loyal pets you could ever have I’m sorry I ever left man anyways moving on the yellow flower I know some of you remember this and if you do remember it you’ll know this flower and the rose were the only two flowers to decorate your house back in

The day that’s right players had to work with what they had back then we couldn’t really decorate with much if you remember when gunpowder was called sulfur then congratulations you are one of the veteran players of the Minecraft Community one thing that makes me really nostalgic about old versions of

Minecraft is when the menu screen used to say mods and texture packs I don’t know it’s a weird thing to point out but I think it’s something only a veteran player can really appreciate texture packs were cool man do you guys remember when the Minecraft music would continue

To play when you saved and quit to the title screen because I do nowadays in Minecraft if a song is playing and you pause the game or change your game mode the music just stops playing which I’m not really a fan of I don’t know it was

Just nice to quit out of your world and still have a relaxing C418 song playing in the Background if you recognize this screenshot then you are a veteran player that’s right this is the Minecraft screenshot that started all the rumors and fan theories of Herobrine is this screenshot real I guess we’ll never know do you guys remember the seed worst seed ever despite its name it was an amazing

Minecraft seed in the beta days that spawned the player next to an exposed dungeon followed by a cave system that contained a lot of diamonds now it was a very popular seed among the community at the time and if you remember it then you’re definitely a veteran player if

You played Minecraft in the alpha days then you might remember when the sun used to rise in the north and set in the South whereas in Minecraft today and in real life it rises in the East and sets in the west four words the temple of notch if you remember this awesome map

Then you are a Minecraft veteran take a look if you played Minecraft when dogs were first added then you might remember when they were able to attack and kill you in peaceful mode that’s right guys peaceful mode wasn’t so peaceful for us veteran players but we deserved it if we

Attacked a wolf anyway so who really cares back in the earlier days of Minecraft when you died in your world the death screen would say game over instead of you died I guess the game saying you died is a lot more fitting for when a stupid creeper blows you up

Because yes Minecraft you’re right I did die I died a little inside anyways moving on speaking of the game overc screen do you guys remember when the score number would say and e0 because I do literally no one knew what it meant back in the day so it was just sort of

There but yeah if you remember it then you’re definitely a veteran player if you guys remember when you could milk squids with a bucket in the early beta days of Minecraft then you are a veteran player because this feature wasn’t around for very long but when it was in

The game it was kind of weird but kind of cool I guess the old zombie villager texture I know some of you remember this and if you do remember it then you my friend are a Minecraft veteran back in the earlier days of Minecraft there used

To be no hunger bar in the game which meant players regenerated their hearts by just simply eating food it was a lot simpler back then and if you remember this then you are a veteran player at one point in Minecraft bows were quite overpowered because you could shoot them

Ridiculously fast and spam click arrows it was insane one thing I especially remember in the old days of Minecraft is when food didn’t stuck it was one of the most annoying things in the game I would remember having a full inventory of raw pork chops and it was just so annoying

If you remember this door sound you are a veteran Minecraft player I miss this sound so much man do you remember when birch trees and Spruce trees would just give you Oak planks it was really strange do you guys remember the old boats because I do they were absolutely terrible to control would

Break all the time and were just really really slow another feature I remember in the old days of Minecraft is that you could simply just punch a sheep and it would drop wool nope you didn’t have to use shears or anything like that you could just punch it and it would drop

Wall it was ridiculous do you guys remember before version beta 1.8 when you could toggle your render distance and fog by pressing the F key on your keyboard I was quite annoyed when they got rid of it to be honest cuz I found it quite useful as my PC back then was

Terrible oh my god do you guys remember in Minecraft when fences didn’t connect to solid blocks because I do and it was very frustrating another thing that was really annoying about fences is that they used to be a full block making walking around them just really tedious and annoying

I don’t think you even need to be an old school Minecraft player to remember this and that is the old hurt sound I’m sure all of you watching this video remember this take a listen it still makes me so sad to this day that they even removed this I loved

It so much if you remember this Cobblestone texture then you are an old school Minecraft player because it was either loved or hated by the community I remember back to a time when mossy cobblestone was one of the rarest blocks in the game as it didn’t have a crafting

Recipe and could only be obtained from dungeons which were really hard to come by do you guys remember when sprinting was not in Minecraft that’s right before the beta 1.8 update sprinting was not in the game which meant getting from point A to point B in your Minecraft world

Took a lot longer and it was a lot more painful oh my god do you guys remember that feature in Minecraft where when you slept in a bed there was a chance for either a zombie or a skeleton to wake you up as you tried to sleep and they

Would begin to attack you I don’t know if it was an annoying feature or a cool feature I really can’t decide do you guys remember when you could press the F3 key on your keyboard and it would show The Entity numbers of mobs meaning you could essentially cheat to find cave

Systems if you remember the old creative mode inventory when it was just a list of all of the items in the game instead of having tabs for specific items then you are a Minecraft veteran I remember this old creative mode inventory and it was really annoying to navigate through

I really prefer the new one do you guys remember back to a time where pigs were the only animal in Minecraft that would drop food sheep cows and chickens didn’t drop any food which was kind of frustrating to be honest and it made finding food quite difficult I’m sure a

Lot of you old school players will remember when the chest was a full block and looks like this and the fact that it didn’t have an open and closing animation chest were a lot more simple back in the day do you guys remember when mobs weren’t as smart and they

Couldn’t walk around walls for example this basically meant that creepers would just jump scare you when you would walk past the wall and it was terrifying oh creepers would also do this thing where they would just stare at you from outside through your glass window in

Your house and it scared me so much man they look so creepy speaking of creepers once again if you remember the old explosion sound then you are a Minecraft veteran take a listen one old feature that I’m sure a lot of old school players will remember is that

You couldn’t Place double chests next to each other which was just so annoying you would lay out your house in this really good way you’d want to place two double chests and it just wouldn’t let you it was just so frustrating man you know how with every Minecraft update

That comes out now there is a new background on the title screen to match the update theme well in the old versions of Minecraft this wasn’t a thing you just had a dirt background on the title screen and it makes me nostalgic every time I see it another

Thing I remember about the title screen of Minecraft is when the Minecraft logo was different do you remember when the logo was just made out of what looks to be the Cobblestone texture because I do and I thought it looked kind of cool to be honest you are definitely a Minecraft

Veteran if you remember the feature of climbing up ladders with a one block gap between each ladder it kind of meant that you could save quite a few ladders with this trick but they eventually removed this feature if you remember this feature in Minecraft then you are

An old school player and that feature is when the lighting would change in stages when it was getting dark and oh my God it looked so scary just gradually watching the light change do you guys remember the old crafting recipe for fences because I still do it to this day

So in Minecraft today fences are crafted with two sticks and four planks but in older versions of Minecraft they were crafted with six sticks but I still do this crafting recipe to this day I just just can’t get out of my head I always get the recipe wrong when trying to

Craft fences you know how in Minecraft where if you press F5 twice on your keyboard you can see the front-facing part of your skin it’s a really cool feature well in the old versions of Minecraft you couldn’t do this you can only press F5 once and see the back of

Your skin which was really depressing to be honest cuz I wanted to see what my skin look like in full form but I couldn’t do you guys remember when you could only have five Minecraft worlds it really meant that you had to make each World count because there were only five

World slots this is the rose flower it was one of my favorite flowers in Minecraft and they removed it and replaced it with the poppy why couldn’t we have just had both of them I will be angry about this for probably the rest of my life yes I am that sad before

Creative mode and commands were even a thing in Minecraft players back in the day had to rely on mods such as single player commands and too many items which allowed you to spawn in items and fly around and things like that things you could do in Minecraft today but you

Couldn’t back then without the use of mods do you guys remember back to a simpler time when beds were not in Minecraft because I do back in the alpha versions of the game beds did not exist which meant you had to sort of wait out the night cycle making surviving in your

World just a lot more challenging if you played Minecraft in the alpha days of the game then you’ll probably remember that the inventory key used to be I instead of E I hear that some people still use I as their inven key today because they’re so used to it me

Personally I use e the old gravel texture I know some of you remember it for some reason back in the earlier days of Minecraft zombies dropped feathers I’m sure some of you remember this and it was just a little bit weird to be honest I remember going out to kill

Zombies for feathers just so I could make arrows oh my God I’m sure a lot of you Minecraft veterans will remember the world generation of the alpha and beta days of Minecraft it looked absolutely insane some of the mountainous terrain you would get was just it was

Mindblowing just just look at it if you remember watching The Yogscast original Survival series then you are a Minecraft veteran take a look hoay Minecraft we’ve created a new server and we’re going to show people how to play Minecraft how to survive the first night oh my God it’s

Terribly snowy what happened here this game is beautiful it is made by a single man yeah uh so this is it this is the game suring the first it’s just us in the dark oh it brings back so many memories man if you thought Max enchanting at 30 levels

Costs a lot in Minecraft then think again because when enchanting was first added Max enchanting on tools and armor cost 50 levels which was insane on top of that before the feature of having to use lapis to enchant was added enchanting tools or armor at level 30

Would take all of your XP for that one tool instead of taking three levels which was just insane you would spend so long grinding for those levels just to use it on one item another enchanting feature that old school players will remember is that you couldn’t see what

Enchantment you are going to get at all in Minecraft today you get shown one of the possible enchantments you will get on an item but in older versions of Minecraft you had to just risk it and see what you would get which was just oh my God it was so frustrating I remember

A time where you could activate and ignite TNT by just simply punching it with your hand you didn’t need flint and steel at all which was pretty awesome not going to lie if you remember the infamous Minecraft seed Glacier then you are a Minecraft veteran it was basically

A seed in the beta days of Minecraft that just gave you this all inspiring well generation it looked absolutely fantastic just look at it you should honestly go back to Beta 1.7.3 and try out this seed because seriously you will be blown away at how amazing it looks in Minecraft today we

Have these things called advancements where you basically complete little tasks in Minecraft but do you guys remember when achievements were in the game they were very similar to enchantments but they were just a little bit different and I will always remember these before beta 1.8 when the hunger

Bar was added into Minecraft there was no eating animation in the game so when you would consume a cooked pork chop you’d simply just right click on it and boom it would be gone there would be no Nom Nom noming on the item it would just it would just disappear when you’d right

Click on it if you played Minecraft Alpha before biomes were added into the game then you will remember when Minecraft worlds looked like this there was just one type of grass and it was this really bright green looking grass and I have to say it made your Minecraft

Worlds look very bright but very unique do you guys remember this when you or your friend died in Minecraft their body would just disappear and die instead of having a death animation which uh looked a bit weird not going to lie do you remember when Village structures were

Added in beta 1.8 but no Villages were added to spawn yet making the village itself very creepy and sort of empty I remember playing the game and just encountering a village but there was just there was just nothing there it was just really weird to be around it oh my

God another thing I remember is when mining the crafting table and the furnace took absolutely ages you could use an axe on a crafting table it would still take forever use a diamond pick on a furnace it would still take forever you probably don’t even need to be a

Mcraft veteran to remember this but do you remember when you could spam click your sword I’m sure a lot of you do and a lot of people got mad when this was changed were you guys one of them let me know in the comments below I’m sure some

Of you remember back to a Time where fire in Minecraft used to spread insanely fast so if you started a fire in your world it was going to be very devastating you are indeed a Minecraft veteran if you remember when you could block with your sword instead of

Blocking with your Shield back in the earlier days of Minecraft items such as stairs fences pressure plates cacti and other blocks looked absolutely huge when thrown on the ground I mean just look at them I’m sure some of you remember this bug it looked so funny and if you do

Remember it then you are a Minecraft veteran do you guys remember when caves in Minecraft were only made out of stone you wouldn’t find blocks such as Granite diorite or andite blending in with the stone you’d only find Stone which made the caves look a lot more simple back

Then in the alpha and beta days of Minecraft the zombie pigman used to drop a cooked pork chop upon death making them one of the strongest food sources in Minecraft and if you remember this then you are a Minecraft veteran the old lava texture I know some of you remember

This and if you do remember this texture then you are a Minecraft veteran if you were one of those Minecraft players a few years back that made your house out of diamond blocks in creative mode then you are a Minecraft veteran I just remember a lot of people doing that back

In the day were you one of them let me know in the comments do you guys remember back to a time when there was only one type of wooden plank in the game and that wooden plank was the oak plank there was no Birch plank jungle plank or Spruce plank or anything like

That it was just Oak planks and if you remember this then you are a Minecraft veteran you are definitely a Minecraft veteran if you remember this and that is when you would come across these massive holes in your Minecraft world which are otherwise known as chunk errors and

They’d look like this oh my God if you played Minecraft in the alpha days of the game then you will remember how annoying this was and that was when leaves didn’t Decay after you broke a tree it was so frustrating you know you just be chopping down a bunch of trees

In your world and then you’d notice that all the leaves from that tree aren’t disappearing because they wouldn’t Decay unless you manually broke them yourself back in the earlier days of Minecraft there was a time where the infamous enchanted golden apple had a crafting recipe that’s right the enchanted golden

Apple or the Notch Apple could be crafted with eight gold blocks and one apple which some considered to be quite overpowered due to the effects of the Apple giving the player this resulted in the crafting recipe for the enchanted golden apple to be removed in the 1.9

Combat update in 2015 you can still find enchanted golden apples in your Minecraft well but they are extremely rare and can only be found in structures such as Dungeons and M shafts but with all that said if you remember the crafting recipe for the Notch Apple then

You are a Minecraft veteran oh my god do you guys remember when creative mode was first added in beta 1.8 and mobs could attack you it was the most annoying thing ever I’d be building my house in creative mode you know peacefully and a creepy would just come up to me and blow

It up do you guys remember when you couldn’t toggle your brightness in Minecraft because I do this resulted in cave systems back in the day being extremely hard to see in if you didn’t have any torches you were not able to see anything in caves nowadays in Minecraft you could literally have your

Brightness on full and explore a cave and sort of SE without even having a torch it’s kind of crazy do you guys remember back to a time when you would find dungeons generated on the surface in your Minecraft world because I do you’d just be walking around in a desert

Biome minding your own business and suddenly you’d come across this big square hole with either an exposed dungeon in it or a dungeon that’s just covered in some sand and would require you to dig it out I also remember the spawner and the two chests having a sand

Block on top of them making you know exactly where they were when clearing out the dungeon I remember back to a time when cookies were one of the hardest foods to obtain in Minecraft and I will tell you why so cookies in Minecraft are crafted with wheat and

Cocoa beans but cocoa beans in the beta days of Minecraft could only be found in dungeon chests that’s right you couldn’t find them any other way making them extremely hard to find it wasn’t until version release 1.3 where cocoa pods were added to spawn on jungle trees

Making cocoa beans a bit easier to find and cookies a bit easier to craft but yeah if you remember how rare cookies were in the beta days of Minecraft then you are a Minecraft veteran in the beta days of Minecraft bone meal was extremely overpowered as using it on

Tree or wheat farms for example would grow them instantly instead of growing it in stages this resulted in bone meal being significantly nerfed in version 1.5 as you now have to grow the tree for example in stages but yeah if you remember the old bone meal where it

Instantly grew a tree then you are a Minecraft veteran at one point in Minecraft’s development there was a bug that existed in the game where wooden slabs could only be broken if they were broken by a pick a that’s right axes didn’t work you couldn’t use your fist

Or anything you had to use a pickaxe and it was very strange and if you remember this then you are a Minecraft veteran this next feature is going to sound really random but if you remember when the Villager had the testificate name tag above their head when they were

First added into the game then you are a Minecraft veteran because they were added all the way back in beta 1.9 in 2011 which was a really long time ago so yeah if you remember this feature then you are an old school player do you guys remember back to a time when finding

Diamonds in mcraft was considered to be the end game as there wasn’t really much to do after finding them that’s right we are talking back to a time when there wasn’t enchanting for your tools and there wasn’t any abandoned M shafts to explore and there even wasn’t the Ender

Dragon to fight all you could really do was go mining to find diamonds or build it was very simple back then but it was very beautiful I might be one of the only players that remembers this but do you guys remember when the stars that appear at night in Minecraft looked

Different in the old versions of Minecraft so here is how the stars look in the old versions of Minecraft and as you can see they are absolutely massive compared to how the stars look today because the stars in Minecraft today look a bit more realistic and slightly

Smaller and a bit brighter but yeah if you remember this then you are a Minecraft veteran do you guys remember back to a simpler time when there wasn’t a recipe book in Minecraft to help you craft items in the game because I do I remember not knowing how to craft

Something and it really bothered me that I had to just Google it because you didn’t get any help in the game you had to figure out how to craft things for yourself and I kind of liked that challenge to be honest creative mode was added into Minecraft in version beta 1.8

In 2011 in beta 1.8 when you made a creative world you would always spawn with a bunch of blocks in your hot bar which I found kind of annoying to be honest cuz I’d always just swap them out for different items now if you remember this then you are a Minecraft veteran oh

My god do you guys remember back to a time when the max build height in Minecraft was 128 blocks because I do I remember building up to the build height back in the day and seeing the clouds being level with me which was really weird now

The build height in Minecraft is 2 256 so it’s double what it was back in the day I might be the only one who remembers this but do you guys remember in the old versions of Minecraft more specifically Alpha and beta when the animals would just jump around a lot

More I don’t know what it was you just be seeing a sheep for example just jumping all over the place that’s all they do they just jump around until you killed them I guess you will only remember this if you are a Minecraft veteran and that is when the texture for

The steak in Minecraft today originally belonged to the cooked pork chop for the pig in the earlier days of Minecraft that’s right guys before beta 1.8 the pig was the only animal that dropped meat which meant they used this texture for the cooked pork chop and when the

Cow was given a food drop they got the texture instead and the pig got a new cooked pork chop texture which of course looks like this if you remember this Minecraft launcher or this Minecraft launcher or this Minecraft launcher then congratulations because you are a Minecraft veteran do you guys remember

Back to a time when the crafting table wasn’t actually called the crafting table in Minecraft nope instead it was actually called the workbench and if you remember this then you are a Minecraft veteran back in the earlier days of Minecraft in the alpha and beta days of

The game swords in Minecraft used to be a lot more powerful Diamond Sword for example in Alpha and beta used to deal five hearts of damage to enemies meaning you could kill a creeper in just two hits which was pretty overpowered however in the beta 1.9 update

Enchanting was added into the game which meant sword damage had to be reduced meaning a diamond sword’s damage went from five hearts of damage to three and a half hearts of damage you know how in Minecraft today golden apples are crafted by using gold ingots well it wasn’t always crafted this way that’s

Right guys back in the earlier days of Minecraft golden apples were crafted with eight gold nuggets and one apple instead of eight gold ingots and one apple and if you remember this then you are a Minecraft veteran if you played Minecraft in the alpha and beta stages

Of the game then you will remember a very annoying bug when you destroyed stairs so in Alpha and beta destroying a wooden stair or a cobblestone stair wouldn’t actually give you the stair back when you broke it nope instead of get getting the stair back all you would

Get is one of the blocks you use to create that stair so if I destroyed a wooden stair I’d only get one wooden plank back and I was just like all right thanks for that most villagers that you come across in Minecraft today will probably have these grass Pathways that

Look like this however if you played Minecraft a few years ago you will probably remember that the villages were made out of grav Pathways instead of grass Pathways and the gravel Pathways looked like this but yeah if if you remember the gravel paths in villages then you are a Minecraft veteran which

One do you prefer grass or gravel let me know in the comments do you guys remember when the texture for wooden stairs and Cobblestone stairs in the inventory looks like this what on Earth is this they don’t even look like stairs anyways moving on do you guys remember

Back to a time when you couldn’t shift click items when transporting them from your inventory into a chest because I do for example if you wanted to move your diamonds wood and food over to a chest you just have to slowly drag them over to the chest which took a very long time

But that’s just how things were back then it was much more simple nowadays in Minecraft you can just simply shift click any item you want and it will instantly move over to the chest and I love this feature so much I’m so glad they added it into the game back in the

Earlier days of Minecraft the desert temple used to be made out of wool instead of terracotta and if if you remember this then you are a Minecraft veteran the reason why I remember it so well is that I would always take the wool from the desert temple so I could

Make a bed on my first night if you played Minecraft Creative Mode when it was first added in version beta 1.8 then you might be aware of a bug that existed at the time where you could hit Mobs with your sword from a very long distance I mean look I’m killing all of

These mobs from so far away how is this even possible but yeah if you remember this weird little then you are a Minecraft veteran if you played Minecraft in versions 1.7 and 1.8 then you might remember the super secret settings button that could be found in the options menu now the super secret

Settings when clicked would switch between a bunch of different Shader effects which looked very very cool in my opinion and I was very sad when they removed this feature to be honest if you played Minecraft before the addition of corner stairs and upside down stairs then you are a Minecraft veteran you

Know you’d be building your wooden house in Minecraft and you could only play stairs in one type of way making your builds look a lot more simple back in the day and I’m sure a lot of you remember this but then in version release 1.2 and 1.3 you could now Place

Stairs upside down and connect them on Corners adding a lot more detail to your Minecraft Builds if you remember this Mojang logo or this Mojang logo or this Mojang logo then congratulations because you are a Minecraft veteran this next one goes out to my old school Minecraft

Alpha players and that is back to a time when cacti was slightly more realistic as when you went to break the cacti you would actually take half a heart of damage as you can see which was uh kind of cool to be honest I mean it makes

Sense when you go to punch some cacti that it’s going to hurt you do you guys remember back to a time when you would craft a c C in Minecraft and it would take your buckets as well I mean what’s this rubbish I go to create a cake and

It just it takes my buckets as well what’s up with that I’m supposed to get them back do you guys remember back to a time when there was a secret crafting recipe to craft chain armor in Minecraft because I do so prior to the Minecraft 1.8 update the player could spawn in

Fire by using commands and they could use that fire to craft chain armor as you can see I remember being amazed when I discovered this but yeah they removed the ability to spawn in fire blocks in 1.8 so you can no longer craft chain armor but yeah it was such a cool little

Thing back in the day I’m sure a lot of you are going to remember this one because it was so frustrating do you guys remember when you started drowning underwater that it would actually pull you down as you were drowning so it would be so hard to swim back up and it

Would just pretty much kill you it was so oh my God it was so annoying I literally I’m I’m getting bad memor memories of this just thinking about it I died so many times if you played Minecraft multiplayer in the earlier days of Minecraft with your friends then

You might remember when you encountered a dungeon that the spawner would always have a pig inside of it instead of the corresponding mob it was supposed to spawn so say for example you found a zombie spawner it would just have a pig inside of it instead which was very

Strange I think we can all agree that when you could block with your sword that crouching and blocking with a sword to another player was just a sign of peace and that you didn’t want to attack or anything like that it was it was just

A sign of being nice and I really really miss doing this on servers man I’m not sure if anyone’s going to remember this one but do you guys remember the seed dossia it was a Minecraft seed between versions 1.2 to 1.6 that would spawn you next to a village and an exposed

Stronghold it was a very unique seene you would just have this single end portal room on the water it was like nothing anyone had ever seen before it was so cool man this next one is so nostalgic to me and if you remember it then you are a Minecraft veteran and

That is the old water sound the old sound when you would Splash around in the water or land in the water or anything like that take a [Applause] listen you know how in Minecraft today you have to the command game mode creative to go into creative mode or

Weather rain to Make It Rain well originally you only had to type game mode one to go into creative and this weird command known as toggle downfall to Make It Rain those were definitely very old school commands and if you remember them then you are a Minecraft veteran Minecraft has definitely come a

Long way in terms of lighting as we have these really beautiful looking lanterns now and I love them a lot with that said do you guys remember back to a time when villagers had these really budget looking lamps that were made out of fences wool and torches because I do I

Mean yeah I could see what they were going for to make a lamp I mean lanterns didn’t exist back then but uh they didn’t look very good to be honest I will give credit where it is due however that was the closest you were going to

Get to a lamp to be honest anyways moving on I might be one of the only ones who remembers this feature but do you guys remember when desert biomes would have these little Lakes inside of them because I do it didn’t really make sense but I’d always find a bunch of

Little Lakes inside the desert biome in Minecraft today a desert biome has virtually no water but back then you’d find loads of these little Lakes oh my god do you guys remember back to a time when skeletons had absolutely terrible aim with their bow and arrow because I

Do I mean seriously look at this about 90% of this skeleton’s arrows aren’t going anywhere near me his aim is uh it’s it’s not so great I mean skeletons in Minecraft today are absolutely ridiculous they pretty much have Aimbot to be honest but uh skeletons back in

The alpha and beta days that they weren’t very good I’m one of those people in Minecraft who love to tame a bunch of wolves and give them different name tags and different color colors however back in the earlier days of Minecraft you couldn’t have different color colors or name tags which meant

You would have a bunch of tamed wolves that would all have a red collar and I’m sure a lot of you remember this if you guys remember the old sounds for when you shot a bow and when an arrow landed somewhere then you are a Minecraft veteran take a

Listen back in the earlier days of Minecraft players were able to eat food even if their health bar was full this was a funny way to troll your friends as they could be in need of food and you could just eat it right in front of them

While flexing that your health was full I was the worst man anyways moving on before creative mode was added players could only spawn in items by using mods such as single player commands this meant if players spawned in items such as beds doors and sugarcane they would

Look really weird in the inventory I mean come on is this supposed to be a door what even is this man but it gets even worse as back in the day if you place these spawned IND doors it would only place half the door like what same

With the bed if you place the spawned in variant it would only place half of it making it just useless I mean who’s going to sleep on a bed that looks like this I don’t even know what else to say man but if you remember these then you’re definitely a veteran player

Sunsets in Minecraft are just beautiful I mean just look at that Sky however if you played Minecraft in the alpha days then you might remember when the sky didn’t change color when the Sun would rise and set it looks so weird man I just can’t unsee it the old texture for

Diamonds now the diamond texture wasn’t even changed that long ago but when I look at the old diamonds I get so nostalgic man I mean I think back to when I first found diamonds in the beta days and how happy I was so yeah the original Diamond texture will always be

The diamonds I know and love back in the earlier days of Minecraft Pocket Edition a block known as the nether reactor core was in the game so the Nether Reactor was a player built structure that when activated would spawn a giant Tower that was entirely made of netherite inside

Set structure you would find nether related blocks such as glowstone dust and nether courts and More Zombie Pigman would also spawn and automatically become hostile towards the player the Nether Reactor essentially acted as a substitute for the real nether Dimension due to it not being able to be added

Into Pocket Edition but yeah if you remember the nether reactor core then you are a Minecraft veteran next up we have the release of M inecraft beta 1.8 now I know a lot of you Minecraft veterans will remember this update because it was massive beta 1.8 added

Sprinting the hunger bar more food New World Generation villagers M shaft strongholds and so much more beta 1.8 was just that one Minecraft update that completely changed Minecraft forever man do you guys remember the stone cutter no not that stone cutter I’m talking about the OG one from Pocket Edition this

Stone cutter was essential if you wanted to craft stone related blocks as in Pocket Edition at the time you were not able to craft stone blocks in a crafting table but yeah if you remember this version of the stone cutter then you’re definitely a veteran player if you were

One of those players who got to play Minecraft in the snapshot phase for the 1.6 update then you might remember when horse armor had a crafting recipe that’s right Diamond horse armor for example could be crafted with six diamonds and one wool but yeah when 1.6 was fully released the horse armor crafting

Recipes were removed but man if you remember these crafting recipes then you’re just an old school player there’s nothing more to say the rose I miss the rose I have mentioned the rose so many times on my channel that it’s just becoming a meme at this point I just

Miss it so much man I like the poppy don’t get me wrong but why can’t the rose and Poppy just coexist with each other rest in peace rose you will be missed speaking of roses if you played the Pocket Edition version of Minecraft then you will definitely remember the

Blue Rose now this blue rose was supposed to be a regular red rose but due to Hardware problems at the time the Rose had to be blue for some reason yeah I don’t really get it either but if you remember this blue flower then you’re definitely a veteran player another

Feature in Minecraft Pocket Edition that veterans might remember was the ability to restore your health by sleeping that’s right in the alpha versions of Pocket Edition players could regenerate their health by sleeping in a bed which was quite a unique feature if you ask me but yeah if you remember this then let

Me know if you played Minecraft in 2011 then you will definitely remember the ather mod now the aether mod essentially added a new dimension called the Aether which was described as being the opposite counterpart to the nether the only way to get to the dimension was by creating this iconic glowstone portal

Which I’m sure a lot of you are familiar with this glowstone portal became so popular that many players tried to activate the portal in vanilla Minecraft only to be saddened that it didn’t work okay guys be honest were you one of those players that tried to make a

Glowstone portal in vanilla come on we’re all friends here we can be honest with each other I won’t judge you well maybe I’ll judge you a little bit but but you know anyways moving on the original Minecraft trailer released on December 6th 2011 the original trailer for Minecraft now has over 150 million

Views and man every time I go back and watch it I get so much Nostalgia take a look let’s go to a place where everything is made of blocks where the only limit is your imagination let’s go wherever you want to go climb the tallest mountains Venture down to the darkest

Caves build anything you want day or night rain or shine cuz this is the most significant sandbox you’ll ever set foot in it’s so beautiful man it gets me every time if you played Minecraft during the alpha phase then you’ll definitely remember the play tutorial World button that you could

Never even select and play that’s right for some reason the tutorial button was always grayed out which made it quite mysterious but I also found it really annoying because I wanted to see what it looked like I mean come on man Minecraft console players had many tutorial worlds

This leads me to talking about the tutorial worlds on the Minecraft console edition so if you were a veteran player for the console edition you’ll definitely remember the very first tutorial World from Title Update 1 this world included a tutorial section two Villages a ligh house structure and the

Infamous castle with a library and let’s not forget that huge iconic Minecraft logo seen from above it’s just beautiful man the next tutorial World veterans will remember is the world from update 3 now this tutorial world is very similar to the tu1 tutorial world except it included additional Secrets these

Secrets include a lever on the Minecraft world logo that would reveal a nether portal as well as having an underwater glowstone tunnel by the castle that would lead to a chest containing diamond tools and armor next up veteran players are sure to remember the tutorial world

For title update 5 now the tu5 world added a tutorial for for sprinting and eating since they were both added in this version of Minecraft you’d also get three villagers a mountain Fortress and bur of all the music disc Quest this Quest pretty much allowed players to

Search the world for 12 different chests that would each contain a different music disc but yeah those are some of the tutorial worlds that were on console edition but if you want a video on the rest of them then let me know in the comments if you played Minecraft in the

Beta days then you might remember when the lighting on animals would just sort of bug out when they were swimming around in water for example these pigs are bobbing up and down in the water but their texture keeps changing to a darker shade which looked very interesting the

Old sounds for rain if you’re a veteran player then you’re sure to remember the old sounds for rain as it was just ear piercingly loud man take a listen and prepare your ears next up I’m going to be showing some Minecraft seeds that veteran players will most definitely remember

The first seed we have on our list is an Infamous seed that only worked in Minecraft versions 1.7 and 1.8 now the seed I’m talking about is seed number four so upon creating the world with seed number four you’ll be greeted by a small island containing lots of trees

Some sheep and a single cave entrance now if you enter the cave entrance you’ll instantly be greeted by a stronghold structure that also has the end portal nearby this pretty much meant you had a really cool survival island seed containing only a strong hold giving the player a very unique

Challenge back in the day anyways if you remember seed number four then you’re definitely a veteran player the next seed veteran players might remember was a seed that allowed you to have 15 diamonds at your spawn point so the seed is just a bunch of numbers and it only

Works from version 1.2 to 1.5 upon on creating the world you’ll be greeted by a jungle biome with a desert biome right next to it travel about 100 blocks from Spawn and you’ll quickly come across a desert temple and a desert village the desert temple chest contained a generous

Six diamonds but it got even better than that that’s right if the player checked the blacksmith chest in the village you’d find nine more diamonds giving you a grand total of 15 now this diamond seed was very popular among players back in the day and you could probably see

Why back in the earlier days of Minecraft between versions 1.2 and 1.6 one of the most unique never seen before seeds was discovered by the community now the seed I’m of course talking about is a seed known as dossier so upon spawning in with the seed you’ll be

Greeted by a plains biome containing a village however next to said Village there is a stone brick structure that lies within the water now this structure was actually the entrance to the the end portal room that’s found within strongholds that’s right there’s no stronghold structure to explore just a

Singular end portal room surrounded by the ocean now if you remember this sea then you were very lucky to experience something that had never really been seen before Ravines we’ve all found one usually they’ll contain some iron Some Coal or a creeper falling on top of you

However back in the earlier days of Minecraft a seed existed during versions 1.2 to 1.6 where a ravine would hand everything to the player I’m not joking creating a world with the seed on screen would bless the player with this Infamous Ravine at spawn now this Ravine

Was famous due to being generated with both a stronghold and a m shaft I mean just look at this man the strongholds located near the top while the Min shaft is near the bottom on top of that the Ravine was deep enough to contain up to 15 exposed diamonds but I’m pretty sure

There was more than that but yeah if you recognize using this Minecraft seed back in the day then be sure to let me know in the comments if you played Minecraft in the beta days of the game then you’ll definitely remember the seed glacia this seed was extremely popular amongst the

Community as it really demonstrated the charm of Minecraft’s Old World Generation as soon as you spawn into the glacia seed you’re instantly blessed with so much unique and beautiful terrain you’ve got the Giant mountain mountains beautiful overhangs random floating bits of terrain with a waterfall and so much more so yeah if

You remember the sea Glacier then you are a Minecraft veteran the next seed we have on our list is another Infamous seed from the beta days of Minecraft that was called the worst seed ever now despite being called the worst seed ever it was very popular back in the day for

How good it was who would have thought so upon spawning into the world you’re greeted by an exposed dungeon with a zombie spawner which were very hard to come by in Minecraft Beta if you look closer at the dungeon itself you’ll notice there’s a hole within it that

Leads into a Cave System keep following the cave all the way down and you’ll find multiple cave systems and a generous amount of diamonds keep in mind this was all found below your spawn point so yeah it was definitely not the worst seed ever if you’re a Minecraft

Veteran and a lover of generated structures then you might remember a seed that was most popular during the 1.6 update so the seed contained two exposed strongholds a desert pyramid and a village all within your spawn point which was very lovely as loot goes it’s not that bad either the dungeon

Contained horse armor name tags and music discs whereas the pyramid had diamonds and emeralds so yeah if any of you recognize this iconic seed then let me know in the comments seed 404 you either remember it or have never heard of it so seed 404 was a Minecraft seed

In the beta days that became extremely popular due to the community creating a challenge known as the 404 Challenge the aim of the challenge was to spend your first Minecraft day collecting as many resources as you can however as soon as night time began to fall you had to walk

Over to this big patch of gravel that’s found within the spawn point then you had to break the gravel and watch the rest of it full as it reveals a deep cave system that plunges into darkness in other words the gravel revealed a very scary cave the player then had to

Enter the unforgiving cave system and try to survive down there for as long as possible you weren’t allowed to use torches either making it very difficult to see within the caves so yeah if you remember the 404 Challenge from the beta days then you’re definitely an old school Player
