It's hilarious to me that by putting more posts on this thread about how this thread is filled with senseless posts are adding to the amount of senseless posts. Look, even I'm doing it to now! Am I one of the cool kids yet Mom?

Yeah, I've given up on trying to keep it on track. I really doubt if any of my contributions will be even found in the end when a developer finally does try to consider it... (reads the first 1-2 pages... skips to the end, reads the last page... done).

People prefer to keep it a BS chat page, so be it... It's a BS chat page.

There may be salvation in opening a new thread with an updated copy of the original post adding in all the ideas that were discussed. It would definitely help in the implementation of the desired aspects of this thread

The first post of this thread is updated.

Well damn me, I agree.

Although I don't know why people hate guns so much. Minecraft is made to be a game of VARIETY, adding guns would expand the variety further.

Please don't refer to them as guns, refer to them as primitive firearms. That would make it better.

Muskets are probably best.

I think it increases the chances of people looking it up and seeing that they're easily within the sort of fuzzy timeline.

It helps people realize that we exploited their flawed timeline.

I've always wanted to see a balita in minecraft or some form of cannon for base defense but I'm not really sure how to go about explaining what I see. I guess it comes down to seige engines.
Perhaps they could be built like a golem ( place certain blocks in an order and it appears) immobile firing in one direction and when you break it it drops the blocks used to make it.
Balisa would be made of wood mostly and fire an arrow that could hurt players hit and destroy the first 2 blocks it hits other than obsidian.
Catapult would be made of wood and iron and fire cobblestone which would break wood and cobblestone in one hit but take 2 to break stonebrick.

I don't know, a siege engine seems like it will be too big or make lag. If it were to be implemented, it would probably destroy a semi circular hole in any wall other than maybe end stone or obsidian.

That could be used for major griefing and I think that it would be better left out. Besides we already have TnT cannons and those are fairly hard to set up but function very similar to what you are saying. And after playing around with stuff like this in some mods I can assure you that it causes major lag.

Maybe the siege engine should be carried by horses. Then you wheel it over to your enemies base and then you bash a hole in the wall with it.

Hmmm.... partial support. I like the idea of new weapons, but some of the weapons that you have listed are a bit overpowered.

The quiver and musket ball pouches would be there so there could be different kinds of ammo in the game.

You can still carry them in your inventory but you can only use them out of the quiver or pouch.

With the magic, it should be like using a bow. Using left trigger.
