wattles – MORE WARDEN INFO, SCULK SENSORS, COPPER, + MORE! | Minecraft 1.17 News Recap

Hey there everybody how you doing it’s me your boy caves and cliffs big hype here welcome to caves and cliffs big hype week number one a brand new series uh maybe caves and cliffs is going to be a gigantic update we got our first bits of information at

Minecraft live a little over a week ago now at this point but uh what if i told you there was more because there definitely is more the point of this series will be to cover little bits of information more things that we’ve learned about the caves and cliffs update

Since minecraft live happened in today’s video we’ll be going over new confirmed information that we’ve received from the developers over about the past week or so this video format is going to be really really different so it’s very important today that you leave a like if you want

To see this in the future if you don’t i’ll scrap it if you do it’ll happen like probably like once a week until snapshots start then snapshots will be king and if you’d like to help contribute information to next week’s video i need you to do one of two things elites

Either a go on twitter and tag me on something that has been confirmed the information has to be from a developer some sort of official confirmed source not a rumor or take a screenshot of that tweet or whatever it is and post it on my subreddit

Wattles with that intro intro out of the way though i think it’s time to start talking about caves and cliff’s features that we’ve learned about after the reveal of caves and cliffs today we’re starting with this king right here a king that we’ll see a lot

Of in today’s video king bdogs one of minecraft’s developers so uh this weight right here is about skulk sensors skulk sensors are going to be a brand new observer that detects an area around it and observes more than just the block in front of it skulk sensors however will not be able

To sense rain they also do not sense other skulk sensors and what else won’t they sense well actually wardens this lack of sensing is due to logic known as habituation basically the skulk sensor gets used to something and doesn’t repeatedly detect it over and over and over again

It’s the reason skulk sensors won’t detect the rain but also the same reason the skulk sensors won’t vibe with each other or wardens they’re just used to those things if you can think back to the skulk sensor reveal video in minecon that is exactly why the wireless skull sensors utilize trap doors

Not just a string of skull sensors the axolotl looks like it’s going to be insanely adorable and also have some interesting mechanics tied to it maybe one of my favorite mobs of all time we’ll see though check out this picture right here axolotl axolotl axolotl we have three of them

What’s the difference well obviously the color here in this image taken right from a minecraft blog post there are three different colors of the axolotl in this image from minecraft live there are also three colors of axolotl but at one color the albino axolotl actually is shared in both images so so

Far we’ve seen five different colors of axolotl that’s kind of crazy and sounds like it’s going to be really cool an interesting tidbit that i actually learned from one of you guys axolotls change color or they can change color as they age interestingly so maybe that’s going to be the mechanic but

Definitely not confirmed also we’ve learned that the axle waddles will have tiny tiny little squeaking noises definitely adorable 100 ooh this one is interesting i always love the image reveals this one is from kojomax 99 underwater ravine geode yeah um definitely amazing but what if we could actually see boom

There we go elites now we can actually see check this out so we have three new things in this image thing number one the amethyst of course right in front of you thing number two the blocks of the amethyst sits on uh you know like around the amethyst inside of that cave area

Thing number three is right in front of us this outer shell block now this block honestly it almost kind of looks like soul soil and gravel combined at least to me it seems that this is going to be a new stone variant now you have to keep in

Mind that none of this isn’t snapshots quite yet so this really just could be a placeholder and this might not end up making it into the game heck i mean even any of the stuff might not even end up making it into the game but it does look like we have a brand

New block confirmed right here this block was also in some of those reveal videos back at minecraft live what do you think this block will be though the new type of stone amethysts are cool and all but actually let’s move on to excavations something that i really

Would love to have more and more information on because they sound like they’re going to be really really cool from ulraf we did get this little bit of information though that is exactly how it’s going to be the structures are going to be hidden underground and it’s up for the players

To create their dig sites all raph was replying to this tweet right here requesting that these dig sites be under the ground like you have to find them if you can remember bag of minecraft live the excavation the dig site was already dug out it was open air

That was an excavation site that was actually already being dug out usually you’ll have to find these things now i’d love to see a villager sell a map to one of these things that could be interesting either way though it’ll definitely be cool to have a fully buried excavation

Site that you literally have to excavate and then continue to excavate a little bit more with the brush to find cool things this is something that a lot of you have probably heard about by now because it was confirmed a long time ago at this point unfortunately brushing

Will delete a block it’ll break the block if you stop brushing so dirt slab you’re gonna have to wait just a little bit longer dirt slab we all need you we all love you some of us do but not today copper sounds like it’s going to be a really

Really interesting block it’s definitely going to be unique i mean no blocks in minecraft literally age that’s a really cool mechanic now here we can see two forms of copper somewhat oxidized and then heavily oxidized including the normal copper block with no oxidation just copper there will be four forms or

Four stages of this oxidation process the devs are still trying to decide on how long each phase should be but agnes did confirm that each phase will be a range of days it won’t be a set amount like at day number five it turns day number 10 it turns and then day

Number 15 it turns it won’t be like that it’ll be a little bit more unpredictable and yes you will be able to break oxidized copper blocks and actually reuse them that’s gonna be awesome it has been confirmed that there will also be a way to stop copper blocks from

Oxidizing if you want that shiny shiny copper color now i wonder if you’ll be able to activate this after it started oxidizing meaning let’s say it’s oxidized a little bit it’s at that first stage will we be able to keep it at that first stage forever

I hope so so four stages of copper oxidation they don’t know how long it’ll take quite yet but it’ll be a range you’ll be able to break oxidized copper and use it and you’ll be able to stop oxidation altogether now next up let’s talk about the evil one

The warden i’m excited for the warden big time so first off it’s confirmed that the area that the warden was shown off him the area that the world will live in is known as the deep dark that’s an amazing name i love that it’s really creepy

But what we saw the deep dark that was an early look at it it might change completely later on now think back to that minecraft live video remember when the warden was being shown off but the warden wasn’t actually shown or seen quite yet remember those flashes of darkness

Well that’s an in-game effect actually as the warning gets closer to the player the player’s vision actually fades in and out to kind of let the player know that the warden is near now this effect is entirely in the player’s vision so torches and lanterns are not actually

Turned off or anything like that it’s just an effect that the player sees almost like the blindness effect you can think of it like that this mechanic is again a warning mechanic to let the player know that a warden is nearby which is really really cool that whole darkness thing that

Definitely adds to the scare factor of the warning like ten thousand percent so you know how the warden looks uh yeah that thing right there zero percent adorable one hundred percent medicine well yeah this actually pretty much in its final point in terms of design at this point in the game so

The warden shouldn’t change in appearance too much it’s also been confirmed that the warden won’t spawn anywhere outside of the deep dark the deep dark is its home and the only place that you’ll find it i wonder if we’ll be able to generate it in though probably not because the

Warden will not have a boss bar no technically has not been confirmed i mean who knows maybe we can spawn in a warden in survival kind of like with the wither but it won’t have a boss bar so the warden is not a boss mob it’s just a strong strong evil beaster

Something whatever it is big ward a big voice or maybe big warning big sensing check this picture out right here it almost looks like the warden is yelling ned a rabbit but i think that’s not what’s happening here i think the warden is sensing the rabbit’s movement i mean check all those

Lines right there uh that it or me you need a name i’ll come up with a name later his editor me zoom in on those particles yeah you see it almost looks like they’re going towards the warden instead of like away i’m not too sure but maybe the warden is sensing this

Rabbit but by the ward there’s kind of being a jerk here remember this concept art that was shown on minecraft live well this concept art has an idea warden friends with bunnies so why is the word screaming at a rabbit that’s like terrifying for the rabbit now check out the background let’s zoom

In a little bit aha perfect perfect now uh watch this boom with the magic of editing i’ve actually turned that image entirely how was it done well it actually wasn’t done with editing this is a different tweet look at the warden’s height this boy is tall that is one tall mightycraft creature

If you weren’t convinced look at king b dogs compared to the warden now believe it or not king b dogs is the height of a normal minecraft player right there the warden looks like twice the height the warden is absolutely massive i’m so excited for this then honestly even more excited now that

We know it’s not a boss this is just a mob that’s in the game a creature that you could find that’s awesome the warden is going to be so so sweet now next up we have a sweet video with some amazing amazing music from henrik this video is actually

Linked down in the description below i’m not going to show it all but in this video we get another look at the footage that was shown in minecraft live and a little more it’s another video of the new minecraft surface which looks absolutely massive i mean it’s a placeholder but still it looks

Really cool and of the caves down below i didn’t catch anything too shockingly new or surprising here but the music is beautiful definitely check this one out after this video it also seems like thankfully we haven’t seen the end of it when it comes to brand new cave variations

Here we have henrik in his majestic natural environment henrik is one of minecraft’s devs it’s a great picture and all but uh let’s actually zoom in on the monitor okay you see anything maybe thanks random person on twitter for zooming in even more because look at that that’s new that’s really

Really different it almost looks like a mine shaft but it also goes up and down what could it be well it’ll be the mesh caves but uh we’ll see later that name sounds absolutely amazing definitely can’t wait to see the mesh caves the telescope art has been updated

A little bit and sent some minecraft live check this out it’s a little bit more of a circle and a circular reflection who said circles don’t exist in minecraft now this is a telescope looking at a player head a lot of people have been speculating that maybe will custom player heads be added

Into the game but that actually hasn’t been confirmed quite yet either way though the telescope effect or art or whatever you want to call it got a little bit more work will there be any more structures or revamp some existing structures in the update ah good question good question eat in

Response all rap hit eat up with a mayhaps so it seems like maybe some existing structures might get an update or there’s just more structures that we haven’t seen quite yet at least this is going to be a gigantic update i’d like to remind everyone this update is due out summer 2021

That’s a long ways away the devs are doing it this way so they can get it right the update is clearly going to be a gigantic update and the devs are trying to give themselves a lot of time to work on the update now before 1.17 snapshots begin

It looks like we’re going to have a different version release the nether update it continues minecraft 1.16.4 is on the way in the future here it’s going to be a small update that will probably just patch bugs i’ll keep you guys posted on that one though let’s wrap

Everything up though with this tweet right here from king b dogs it just means that unless the devs themselves say something nothing is true until official minecraft developers announce it so remember elites if you’ve heard it but it hasn’t been confirmed by a dev it is not necessarily confirmed or maybe not even

True at all but speculation is also fun what do you think about what we checked out in today’s video what’s the big one that gets you the most excited let me know down in the comments below if you’d like to see more of this series like posted once a week

Definitely leave a like on this video it’ll help me out big time if you found any bit of information definitely tag me in it on twitter at it is waddles or post a screenshot over on our slash waddles but elites i think that’s gonna be it for today’s episode of caves and

Cliffs big hype definitely big hype for this update thank you all for watching today big shout out to my patrons the duck 1106 sins and you and milkman thank you all so much for the support until next time big hype gamers goodbye You
