ARE MINECRAFT MINIGAMES BALANCED?


Well hello again! Two posts in one day! This is gonna be DOOOOPPPPEEEE! 

Anyway, here's a burning Minecraft question. So, we all know, there's some of you who play Legacy Console edition. Basically, any of these editions of the game...

- Wii U Edition
- XBOX 360 Edition 
- PS3/PS4 Edition
- PS Vita Edition
- Nintendo Switch Edition (for now)

But these editions of the game offer something unique... 
MINIGAMES! Yeah, on the computer and on the pocked edition etc you have your servers with crazy minigames, i'll do another post to see if those are balanced. (Hint: they ain't due to all the different controlls and such.) 

OK OK BACK TO THE SUBJECT.
The minigames are pretty much the same across the listed platforms.
And here's some good things...

We'll start with Battle. In fact this whole post is completely centered on this one minigame. The thing is this. All the items you could ever get in Battle are not too far apart in their awesomeness. The strongest weapon you could ever get in the minigame is the stone sword with fire aspect. It's cool, right? Does five damage. The weakest weapon is the stick with sharpness 1, does 2 damage. Not too bad, really.

See, that small damage gap is what makes Minecraft Battle so balanced. It enables players with the weakest weapon able to have a fighting chance against the stronger ones. I know that if you just have no armor and a stick for a weapon and a player with all the best stuff is coming straight for you, you have like a 0.000001% chance of victory. But thanks to all the great machanics of Battle, it's easier for noobs and pros alike.

The Nerf Longstrike: An Original Sniper + (Unowned) Mod Tutorial

Image
Some say the Nerf Longstrike is easily one of the worst Nerf blasters ever. These people are half right, and half wrong. The Longstrike's stock performance is not good, no joke. But with even the most basic of modifications, the Longstrike can be a powerful blaster. I do not own any of this video. All credit goes to nerfperformance for making this epic, yet simple tutorial video. But it surely demonstrates that the basic AR removal and spring replacement will make this a force to contend with in the battlefield. The Whiteout version of the Longstrike. Now, how practical can the Longstrike be in a Nerf war, even with modifications? Well, it depends on if you know how to use the blaster. Everyone knows that it's a sniper weapon, so it obviously makes sense that, as the sniper class, you need to find a safe spot to snipe. Note: this goes for all sniper weapon users. The blaster's ability to hold 3 mags allows you to store extra firepower without taking up space on ...

NERF STRYFE REVIEW

Hello, my dudes. It's time to review the Nerf Stryfe. So the thing is, this gun was unavailable for a time, until recently, when they came back in stock on amazon, and they also came out with a "MODULUS" repaint as well. They both can be found here... Regular Stryfe  (amazon prime recommended) Modulus Stryfe (also prime recommended) ANYWAY BACK TO THE REVIEW. As usual this is a super late review. The gun actually came out several years ago and thankfully they're still available and still in production (as of November 2017) The gun costs $19.99 MSRP, $29.99 MSRP if you are looking for the Modulus repaint. To start this, the Modulus repaint is kinda a rip-off. It's pretty much the same thing except it comes with two crappy attachments, so this may not be your cuppa tea. At least it might last longer than the regular stryfe on the store shelves. The Stryfe runs on four AA batteries. A good idea may be to use rechargeable  batteries since they're...
