I genuinely feel like these April Fools updates are just the devs getting the chance to test out their creative concepts that they couldn't fit into a regular update schedule (like how last years april fools update added size commands and stuff, which were added to the base game). I would not be surprised if those village stair paths were implemented into vanilla at some point.

[@LunaChann02]

It's probably both that and not being held back by microsoft's restrictions on what they can and can't change in the game

[@user-wv1in4pz2w]

yeah, it allows them to actually get reactions on features from the community without committing to a feature

[@Planetmango48]

Yeah.

[@hannahrenner7295]

I like to think of April Fools snapshots this way, i think it makes sense! It seems like a "code jam" where people get together and code a bunch of random stuff to test out or just have fun with, without the stress of needing it to be perfectly balanced or mesh perfectly with the base game and other potential features etc That's why they often come off as very similar to mods, they may fit one theme and have nothing to do with anything else in the game, and its totally fine because its a joke snapshot and not an actual update But i can definitely see things like: -village stairs -grappling hook -obviously fletching table use please Mojang its been so long -End update maybe, with the more vertical terrain like the potato dimension has -paintings differentiated by size?? Or maybe even just separating the paintings and giving them proper names -Bedrock has the ability to place blocks "in the air" off another block, without having to look at the face of the block, maybe the Floatato was practice for doing that in Java?? Im sure there are more, maybe even the mobs were practice for something in the future idk But we do know that some April Fools features get into the base game, so i guess this is just how i make sense of all that

[@tresf]

Agreed. If this were chorus fruit and an end biome update, so many of the gimmicky mechanics start to become quality of life improvements... Notably, craftable elytra, new flying mechanics, new form of travel(grappling hook, potato cart), improved single-block portal system (similar to end gateways), new boss as well as potion-style thorns system which would make combat interesting. I too don't think these features are dead-ended.

[@SuperDoreg]

The Flotater is the closest thing we have from "Create" in vanilla Minecraft. I really hope behind the meme this April fools snapshot is a testing ground for new features, because they are all really cool! For one moment I really felt the whole community at peace.

[@Xcube_3_nolongerhere]

just like that other april fools where they added coal

[@LeoYoshi54321]

@@Xcube_3_nolongerhere that was coal blocks, coal had been in the game for years prior. That same update also gave us Stained Glass (called Coloured Glass in the actual update).

I wonder if this is mojang trying out features that they are considering for real Most likely features to me are the grappling hook and floating blocks. Would both be perfect for an end update...

That could unironically be true Coal blocks and some other blocks were added in an april fools update and then were added to real Minecraft

[@elifan06]

[@Enderbrine0422]

imagine they add a version of the floatater to end ships so you can actually fly them

[@Catlord98765]

A lot of the time, or at least from what I can tell, they will use the april fools update to test more technical changes to the game. So we probably wont see any one to one reacreation of any features into the main game. However they will use what they've learned to improve the main game.

Balancing the floater really is not that crazy. Limit how many blocks it moves, and how wide a space can be moved, so even with a lot of them you can't move huge landmasses.

[@something4922]

It's not a problem at all. Mojangs philosophy is that servers can limit things themselves. I have no idea what ibx is even talking about here

[@gearandalthefirst7027]

or just make them only work with floatatoes(obv not what they'd be in actual game but yaknow) and things directly attached like redstone and item frames maybe.

[@patricklee5239]

[@TiredMoonRabbit]

I feel like everyone else is also saying this but the floatater can 100% work, add a block limit and use other Redstone stuff to increase it, make it need a fuel source like wind charges so it can't just infinitely push a block, alow us to place and break blocks on it, make it hare to craft requiring multiple air based things, and depending on how mojang wants us to use it add a steering wheel so we can rotate our air ships. How to balance it isn't the issue, that just takes a bit of creativity, the issue is if the game could handle it.

Unironically. I'm primarily a creative builder and I LOVE getting new woods. I was actually just talking about what we want to see in mc with a friend right before april fools, and I mentioned wanting a neutral grey wood and a green wood. Even if you never acquire or use it ingame, it still has a use to *someone*. I'm fine with mojang adding blocks and features that are mostly useless, but may provide a benefit to someone, as long as they aren't actively annoying. It's the difference between the frog and the phantom.

[@HackerDragon9999]

Azalea wood should be green. And not be oak.

[@CarbonFang25]

I think green wood should be with the end update

[@reuvencooper8170]

I don't think green wood fits in the overworld because it's not natural looking at all. It would make a lot more sense in the end to be a wood type like the nether woods.

[@jean-luckorsten3370]

I think azalea should have a pale lime green wood and the end would have a darker green wood

[@jean-luckorsten3370]

And I would also add a lavender wood to a new tree called jacaranda trees which would have lavender leaves and I would add more colours of leaves like for red, orange, yellow and maybe brown you could add them to a seasonal forest and red could be part of the maple tree which I’m not sure about the wood colour

The need for balancing seems to take away alot of fun features. Also it seems like the Mojang development team has a lot of hoops to jump through just to add a single item into the game. And this may have increased once they started hiring more people.

[@davis7428]

No it’s the size of the game. Mojang has to work with Microsoft. They also have to make sure every part of the game has a valid use. If they add something like the floater not balanced then there will be no need for pistons.

@@davis7428 only people who would say that are the people who don´t even use redstone. Pistons would still be needed for a lot of things

[@zOOpygOOpert]

I understand the sentiment and I think its partially true, but I think with the direction Minecraft is going it makes sense to do it the way they do now, making sure items are balanced has reduced the amount of controversial items like elytras. Atleast in my opinion.

[@anthonynguyen1289]

I could be misremembering it, but last April Fools update, the voting one, also had a grappling hook feature. They genuinely might be testing grappling hooks with the April Fools updates

[@bradhp11]

they arent, kingbdogz confirmed. most of these items are just joke implementations of highly requested features

[@44hd59]

13:01 Elytras exist and they are more op. Also fall damage would have to be based on velocity which they should do anyways so the grappling hook makes more sense when you grapple onto the ground.

[@lasercraft32]

The edible armor effect would be GREAT as some kind of off-hand item.

[@F3nax]

Instead of adding armour that feeds you, they could add an item that syphons food out of your inventory that fills up your hunger bar. They could also make it hard to obtain by having to Kill the Warden. But to somewhat make it it less overpowered it would have to be placed in your off hand, so you have to decide between automatic food or a death totem.

[@Teryte]

The lashing potato is op until you remember elytra exists

[@tcdiablo3346]

The Floatater and the Lashing Potato would be amazing stuff to have in vanilla they do need a nerf tho, green wood would pretty cool too. Another thing they would be amazing to have is that Potato Boss fight, the fighting style for the boss is actually pretty cool and would be nice to have a boss like that in vanilla. And the Toxafin and Plaguewhale would be some cool guardians variants mobs to have in vanilla.

[@NatsumeAyanami]

The floatater is actually easy to implement, make it windcharge based, give it a block push limit (everything else has them!) and make it only push blocks that can be pushed by pistons. more flotators at a time can work, but have to be connected by slime blocks or honey blocks.

[@lillynoob256]

floataters are so cool, but they definitely would need something like the create mod's glue to work in vanilla in my opinion

[@Eikuza]

The floatator would be cool for floating island builds making a redstone system to make them float up the back down constantly making it actually look like it's floating.

The new items in this update really should remain in the game, AT LEAST for the creative inventory. They went through all the effort to implement this stuff, and it seems the community definitely likes it. Plus, that way, it's right there if they ever want to reimplement or repurpose anything. The Potato wood and Floatato could also just be added straight up, unchanged from their implementation here aside from name changes. Floatato could just be renamed to Cloud Block, already looking like and generating like clouds.

[@humourlessjester3584]

I think one reason why we aren't getting new wood types so often are a few things: 1. They need a place to naturally be. Adding a new wood type either means to add it to a new biome or add it to existing biomes, and given mojang's track record I think they would rather have the former. So adding new wood also means designing an entirely new biome for said wood. 2. Inventory management: new wood also means 12 new and individually craftable items. It just adds to player complaints about the current inventory issues the more items they add so they might rather want to space woods apart while there is no current other inventory solutions. 3. Hampering Player expectation: if they add new wood types every update, players will expect wood types every update. To a point where there will be online riots if they decided to focus their attention to themes that don't necessarily have anything to do with wood.

[@Goomba456]

[@tctt185_dg]

I actually think the Poisonous Potato Update is the BEST April Fool's Update there is from Minecraft. It not only has the nonsensical charm of April 1st, but unlike previous ones like the Infinite Update, there is actually a lot of good genuine ideas and concepts that I would LOVE to see get adapted into an actual Update. We have been requesting a couple of things that can shape Minecraft in the following ways. *1.* Functionality to the *Fletching Table* . We had this block be used ONLY for Iron Farms and Villages since 1.14. The Smithing Table was there too but got changed with functionality since 1.16. I think the Fletching Table would be perfect for not only making different Arrow Types, but also potentially good for making the different Fireworks designs... at the moment, you would have to experiment with different Charges and sorts which can complicate things for just a visual perspective. If they can update the Fletching Table, that means features that were part of betas are not out of the cards for Mojang. We got Frogs years later after they have lost the Biome Vote. Bye the way - bring back Biome Votes. *2.* Concepts for an update to *The End Dimension* . It hasn't been changed since 1.9 and a LOT of us has been requesting to give its own update to match the quality that we got from The Nether from 1.16. The Main End Island should remain as it is, but the Outer End Islands (or End Highlands for some if you are Scottish) "needs a bit more flavor" in the environments and biomes department. It doesn't have to include things from what the now deceased _Minecraft Dungeons_ has, but good enough that we will WANT to be revisiting the Strongholds again in the near future. The scale of 1.21 being small has kinda makes me feel optimistic that 1.22 might be coming this year as well to celebrate 15 Years of Minecraft... and The End is a BIG part of Minecraft. True, last time was 2021 with the Caves & Cliffs Updates (1.17 and 1.18), but that is 3 years ago! And the scales of both updates in terms of features were big enough to be split into two small updates. 1.21 feels that same size in features as with 1.17. It would make sense why a lot of the announcements for 1.21 were happening a bit later and the wrap up of the new features happening rather sooner than the name of the Update. I have a feeling that on the Day of the Anniversary, that is when they'll announce that 1.22 will be releasing Winter 2024 instead of Summer 2025 that many would assume. If you are going to celebrate a milestone, you gotta make it interesting enough to keep the retention with the audience. If you compare to 1.20 or 1.19 with 1.21, they are surprisingly medium sized compare to what we got. If 1.16 was The Nether Update to celebrate 10 years, 1.22 likely become The End Update to celebrate 15 years... if not, let's see if 20 years of updates FINALLY gives us an overhall to The End. *3.* Green Wood colour. Minecraft has been leaning into realism for a good while with its Survival aspects. But you know what's been there since the beginning - *_Creative_* ! Seeing a bizarre Green coloured Wood shows that Minecraft can be nonsenical and wacky, which leans into the aspect of the Creativity part of the game. It is the MOST iconic game in the *Sandbox* genre and you can build up impressive structures and go all out in creativity. You don't necessarily need to be a Redstone Genius, but if you can build good custom structure with the resources you have given, you can go all out wild to create your own escapism, and you can show your creativity with your friends and build MASSIVE build projects together. It doesn't have to make ANY sense. We need more blocks that you can find from fantasy biomes or craft the unique blocks and build with them. And if it isn't obvious for us fans in the community, "Wood is Wood and we LOVE new Wood Types with different Wood Colours". A vibrant Green Wood, a Royal Blue Wood, a Purple Wood, a Black Wood, a White Wood, a Grey Wood... you know what - give us World of Colour Part 2 but with WOOD! We will definitely be chucking wood out the windows and hurting beavers in the process. Go wild with the extra elements of what makes Minecraft great for many, and that is to go WILD and get Creative. Minecraft is a *Sandbox* video game overall, so let us go NUTS and build our own experiences. We already have stuff for Map Makers and Creators, now give us something for the Builders and the Explorers to go and build their own dreams with MORE unique blocks.

Maybe a way to make the flotator in Vanilla would be to limit how far it can go by how many you have attached to eachother, so each one can only make the build go a few blocks on their own. Deals with the distance problem while still giving room for use, like with elevators and redstone machines, while not allowing for broken flying machines unless you plan to use all of your flotators for a massive machine. Another thing, for how to get them, maybe the ingrediants could be gotten from the Trial chambers and maybe elevators could exist in the chambers that give you a way to get around while also allowing you to take them if you want.

The grappling hook is a good mood point between walking and the elytra, and they can work in tandem for some sick plays

[@LilacMonarch]

the grappling hook (sorry, POTATO) is something we gotta get, I love using them in terraria and having it in minecraft too is very fun

[@GeneralNickles]

The floatater could be nerfed to a reasonable push limit and it wouldn't be too OP. Something like a 10x10x10 cube around the floatater would be a really big area, but not ridiculous. Or maybe even 8x8x8. Or they could add the slime glue from the create mod, and just have it move everything that's glued together up to a certain number of blocks. Like 200 blocks or something. Just being able to smoothly move a large structure would be the best thing ever, and we need this yesterday.

fletching dull clarity, honey impurities is such an ancient/iterator name

[@Shark_Dude]

I think having a toggle for the floatater could fix all of the balance issues most people would have with it in survival, because only the people who want the chaos it brings will have it

[@XXavierSin-XXs]

Holy crap guys. What if the Ancient City Portal creates a mirror dimension thats been obliterated by the sculk. That would be awesome to see.

[@Yzyxdolorza]

Anyone who hasn’t seen Toycat, PixlRiffs, Ulraf and Bruno flying a End city coupled to an End ship into the main island needs to. It’s epic in a real way…

[@calinconroy6185]

Remember that the horse was originally part of the Minecraft 2.0 April Fools update years ago and then later added it? I hope this is the case for a lot of these features.

[@JamesTDG]

7:57 a controlled way to place paintings would be nice

[@MonochromeWench]

That fletching table UI is probably based upon a real prototype UI for the fletching table to make arrows. Feathers in feather slot, something in top slot, gives arrows but it doesn't actually work as arrows need 3 input slots.

[@FatCatFanatic]

Floatato needs to be exactly that ... attach it to any untethered (i.e. surrounded only by air and water) group of blocks, limit its speed (slower the more blocks it's moving) and only allow horizontal motion and ... BOOM ... you've got yourself functional buildable boats in minecraft! ⛵🚤⛴🛥🚢 As you can already build janky redstone-powered flying machines, I don't see how this would be OP, just really useful. IMO. 🤷🏼

[@bigbellybuddy]

Really want that vertical movement, instead of making loud ass piston elevators that will bug out if more than 2 players are online, the floater block can move players and entities much more smoothly. Side note, why is nobody talking about the vicious potato? A turret block would be great for the trial chambers

[@samexahr3326]

I agree, I don't see floaters being in survival Minecraft, certainly not in the way its done in the snapshot. But for Creative/Command use would be great. The mechanic would be useful to smoothly animate builds, likely with relitive ease. It would be helpful for map makers to make reliable plantforms, lifts and obstacles. It may allow solid builds to be off the grid adding further possibilities in building. There were quite a few nice blocks, but the green planks are certainly notable as they are most likely to be implemented in the base game. I believe the end goal is that they will add trees for each of the 16 different dye colours. Simular to the scraped dyed planks feature. Lime is somewhat represented in Bamboo but I hope thats not the last we will see that colour in planks. Oak, Jungle White?: Birch Brown: Spruce Black?: Dark Oak Orange: Acacia Cyan: Warped Magenta: Crimson Red: Mangrove Pink: Cherry Yellow: Bamboo Lime?: Bamboo White? Black?, Lime? Grey, Silver, Green Blue, Light Blue, Purple. Just laying out the woods makes me realise how far they have come since I first came up with that theory (round Neather Update).

[@jacobmiller9527]

Honestly Limiting the floatater to 12 blocks or down to 6 like pistons would be a good balance. Letting people make flying machines easier well also leaving the option for animated ones

[@robloxian2006...]

I am honestly just glad that they finally added at least one thing to bedrock for april fools

[@humblemovies6259]

My favorite feature was the three trident shards that could be crafted into a trident! I think this should be added, as it makes more sense for the progression of the game, rather than skipping steps and just getting lucky when killing a drowned, a task that can be accomplished day 1 in a Minecraft world

[@dsouth7754]

The potato portal reminds me of the Waystones mod combined with the old Mystcraft Nether link book hub everybody used back in older FTB days. I love it, but we really don't need another reason not to use rails and horses.

[@owenbridgers]

The Floataters are just another thing Mojang taunts us with, something revolutionary to the game but you know it’ll not be added

[@kneekoo]

With so many features for a joke release does make you wonder how come they had the time to make them all happen. But then you think about what the plan was, and that is just fun. No need to balance anything, no need to consider compatibility with existing worlds, no need to worry about bugs... it was basically a break from the regular development and potentially a testing ground for a few features that have been on their radar but aren't easy to test without people freaking out about them.

[@duncetheman]

You didnt talk about the brain or the potato battery. Battery kills and damages mobs but still allows them to drop xp. Brain collects xp and stores it as potatoes of knowledge. This update made it possible to fully automate xp farming and storage with zero input from the player and nobody's talking about it.

[@tosendeelemente8948]

Basically ender io

[@kingalex105x7]

For the green wood I would love it and they couldve added it for azalea, but since they didnt theyd need to add a new tree possibly and then a new area or biome for it to spawn so

[@goldenrain4402]

I think they should add something similar to an ink black cherry blossom, but so it isn't impossible to see the design give it a fairly deep purple wood color and make the leaves black with darker purple and of course give it the falling petals design but with black petals, i think they would look very nice and exotic too. I hope someone sees this and maybe give the request to mojang via that one suggestion site.
