- [Narrator] 17 features
that are still missing in the Caves and Cliffs update. The Minecraft 1.17 cave update brings one of the community's most desired changes to the game. But, there's still plenty of features that us fans would love to
see added in the next update. So, here's how we think
they could implement some of our favorites. And hey, the new warden
mob can only see you if you cause lot of noise. So make sure to stay extra quiet and safe, by mining that subscribe
button super silent. It's free, and it'll upset a ton. Number one, having to sleep in Minecraft feels like kind of a buzzkill. So, wouldn't it cool if we
could turn this would be chore into something with a
little a bit more flair? Which is why the rationale here is if we're able to customize our shields, why can't we also use banners
to put into our bed sheets? Think about it, being able
to accessorize your bedspread adds a level of customizability in a game that's already full of it. I think it'd be a lot of fun and plus it adds a
little bit more variation to when you put your bed next to someone else's, just saying. Number two, if you're
into the more technical sides of Minecraft, then
you've definitely dreamed about movable tile entities. And while to the rest of us layman that sounds a little confusing, what it basically means
is that you're able to push around container entities like chests, using pistons. And just by saying that I'm
sure your brains light up at all the different kinds of machines you can make with those. Whether that's a super sneaky way to hide away your valuables in
storage or whatever this is, I'm sure you can think
of plenty of great things if this get added in the game. Number three. Now with the new update we get the advent to these things called bundles. And while that is a needed change, don't you feel like it
could just be a little more? Well that's why we're still campaigning for proper backpacks to
get added into Minecraft. And by that, I mean adding
different variations to these things. Like what if you could
have different sizes, small, medium and large
for the different amounts of items you gotta carry? Or better yet, what if we
got an ender variant of this that would already link up
to the ender chest network you got going at your base? And while bundles are
definitely a needed change on the road to this,
I see it as just that, a step in the right direction, not the final destination for this. Number four. Dogs are a real best friend or
more specifically, this dog. Only this dog, all dogs look like this. Which is sort of a shame given that cats have so much more variation with the different kinds you can get. So for the future update, how about if we got different skins and breed of variants for the dogs? This would be a really simple change and would add a lot of really
fun variety to these mobs. And even more, it puts you one step closer to being able to perfectly
recreate your home in Minecraft, if your best friend's
right there next to you. Considering that this change
can already be done very well through the use of resource packs, I think there's no reason
this shouldn't make it into the future game. Number five. The lighting engine in Minecraft has come a long way. I mean, to look back at
some of the old updates and you'll see as much. It really stands out like a sore thumb. Which to continue that
grand path of evolution, I think that's why the
Minecraft lighting engine needs to add colored
lights in the new update. And if you're looking
for an example of this then go no further than
Minecraft Bedrocks RTX Beta. Clearly it can be done. And when you look at how beautiful some of these screenshots are, it's really no reason
why it shouldn't be done. I mean, having to see
lanterns and glow stone give off different types
of lighting is one thing, but when you actually
see the glass contain the colors of lights like
we can with beacon beams, ah, it's beautiful. Number six. And if we're looking to make Minecraft look even more beautiful and realistic, then the community is already
got us covered and then some. Obviously the shaders created
by the likes of Sonic Ether, Sildurs and so much more in the community speak for themselves. So I think it's prime time that we add in built-in shader support to Minecraft. I mean, there's already
seem to have been teased by the super secret settings in the menu that was removed in recent update. So how about we remove the secret entirely and just get these stinking
features put in the game? Because I know for me at least when the new generation gets added on the caves and mountains
in this next update, I wanna be able to experience those with shaders from day one. Not just waiting until
OptiFine gets it together and updates, download mine. Number seven. The sounds in Minecraft are iconic. But what I would love is different filters being put on these sound
effects that we know and love. Little details like the sound muffling when you go behind a wall or underwater or just adding reverberation
different spacious caves and new areas that are added in the game, I think that'd be really spectacular and it would add so much more atmosphere to what seems to be an
update all about that. And if you think I sound crazy, then all you gotta do is
download the sound filters mod, and play a music disc in one
of these large open areas to really get a feel of
how great it could be. (gentle music) Number eight. If there's anything that
builders love in Minecraft, it's whenever a new block gets added in. So I'm not saying we
need big sweeping changes that are just built for them like the world of color update in 1.12, what would be cool is building off of that with different stairs
slabs and wall variants for the concrete items added in. Think about it, by just
mapping these textures onto the already existing models, we could get so much more
variety to build with. So whether it's adding a splash of color to your staircase down to
the mines to find amethyst, or even just breaking up
some of that copper roof you got going on, I think this
would be a welcome change, and one that I'd definitely
love to see in 1.17. Number nine. Getting the orientation for certain blocks can sometimes be a little wonky. Like maybe you're building a roof and the stair you placed
just broke your pattern, or you're messing around with redstone and the observer just
isn't facing the right way. So I think that's why so many of us are begging for a new
rotation tool to be added in. You can see as much with
carpet mods, flipping cactus for switching around terracotta or Vanilla Tweaks' wrench item. People really want these
features added into the game. So if a new update gave us
a simple feature like this that would let us tweak our mistakes and fix them right there, I think that'd be a welcome
addition we'd all love to see. Number 10. Shulker boxes are an
invaluable item to the game. And since the new bundle item can be placed inside of a shulker box, I don't think they're getting
replaced anytime soon. But rather, they're becoming
more and more important to your Minecraft journey. So if you play on a big multiplayer server then you definitely know
the pain of these things being a limited item. And while certain SNPs
have different workarounds like resetting the end or
having to shulker spawner, I don't think that's a very good fix. So rather the more simple solution would be having shulkers
actually respond Indian cities. The Carpet Mod already allows for this to be toggled on as a modification. And as someone who's played around with it I can personally say this is
a very vanilla feeling change, that ends that shulker shortage problem. Number 11. For those of you who have spent the time leveling up a cartographer villager, I'm sure you're well and
familiar with one of these. And while these explorer
maps are pretty cool especially if you're trying to find that woodland mansion, or ocean monument, as soon as you track those
down, they're not as helpful. So to help out these villager's stocks, what if they also sold maps
that led you to rare biomes? Think about it, when you've
got your emerald saved up and you're looking for
an adventure in time, then you could go buy one of these guys and have them sell you a map straight over to a mooshroom island. that could really make
for some exciting trips. And it would put some of
the more valuable biomes on the game, right on the table
for us to build bases in it. Giving us both a journey
and a new place to stay. Number 12. If a netherite shell can
already help to keep us and our inside safe from lava and burning, then what if it could do
the same for our valuables? One great suggestion I've seen pop up that I completely agree with is the netherite shulker box. Which is, what if we could
reinforce the shulker shell with a few of our netherite ingots, so that our items inside wouldn't burn or be blown up by any mobs. This can make a really great sidekick for all those nether explorations you've been doing since the last update. And being able to keep multiple different pockets storage items
say from a lava bath, makes it even more helpful
than an ender chest. Giving us a worthwhile trade-off for a pretty expensive best buddy. Number 13. Now, this is an idea that's
already been talked to death. But I think the amount of people that are really singing
the praises of this, just goes to show how wanted
of a feature it could be. Because think about it, if
we've already got machines that automate the mining
part of Minecraft, then it's only fair if we balance it out by automating the craft inside as well. I for one would love to use
these to clean up the storage for my iron and gold farms. And I'm sure that's only
scratching the surface for some of the amazing machines we can make with this involved. So I guess what I'm saying is, why should the mods have all the fun? And let's get one of these in
the game as soon as possible. Number 14. When you're super late gaming
to a Minecraft survival world, then you're probably well and familiar that sand is not a re generable item. At least, not through regular means. There are sand dupers but, we're really not trying
to have sand duplication be any kind of intended
feature in the game. So for that sake, I think
it's prime time to add in some renewable form of sand
generation into the game. For this, we can take the sky block route where husks actually drop the sand, which is a pretty good suggestion considering that it would
give more value to that mob, but also my favorite or perhaps
the way wackier solution is to drop anvils on top of cobble and smash those rocks down into sand. And being able to farm this item without exploiting a game breaking glitch, that's priceless to me. Number 15. Anyone who's beat the ender dragon for sure has one of these
things hanging out in a chest or around their base. That's about all it's good for. And while there are plenty proponents of having this thing
hatch in certain setups and being able to tame
your own tiny dragon, I have to admit that
does sound pretty cool. But it might not exactly fit in, especially with Mojang not wanting to make big sweeping changes all the time. So instead, another idea that
I would really like to see is some form of conduit
style machine with this idea. How about instead, if we use
the dragon egg in a machine we were able to get some
form of creative mode flying in the short area? And while it doesn't have to be that, I think it does point
out how cool it would be to be able to take this thing into the late game of Minecraft, and have some really great
reward from doing it. Number 16. While it's easy to sit here and talk about all the new features that Minecraft should and could
add in for the new updates, I think we're doing a disservice by glossing over the
changes that they've added and haven't done anything with. Which is why I'd love to see
zombie horses, illusioners and even giants get added
into the survival main game. The developers have already
put time into these mobs, and I think we owe it to them
to put them into the mainstay. So while I don't personally have any ideas of how to implement these unused mobs, I do think it's worthwhile
to take them out of the code, dust them off, and get them finally into the regular gameplay. With all this talk of who do
you choose in the mob vote, I think it's finally time that
we give these old favorites some time in the spotlight. Number 17. The customization opportunities of leather armor is pretty spectacular. And I think a lot of us
would love to use it, if the armor quality
for leather didn't suck. Instead, I think it might be worthwhile to take some of those qualities and add them into the regular armor and especially into the elytrous. Think about it being able
to die and mess around with the color scheme
of your favorite armors or better yet, how about
taking a banner design, and throwing it on the back of an elytron, just like they do with the mine concaves. There's so much opportunity here, and it could really be
something cool to look into. And would that folks go splunk into that red button down below, and have a good one, all right?
