    I highly doubt they will move to 1.9 - Brawl feels the same way you do. It changes the game for the worse and I can honestly say nothing added in 1.9 was an improvement.

    Basically everything was an improvement. The new combat mechanics makes survival mode actually challenging (well, when you start off, at least). There were lots of new things added and the new end cities are awesome. Mojang doesn't really care about servers, but even then, everything combat related that was added can be removed or gotten around in some way. You already can play Brawl in 1.9, and combat is almost exactly the same.

    If Brawl wont update to 1.9, what about 1.10? 1.11, 1.12, ect. Mojang already started releasing snapshots for 1.10 so if brawl doesn't update, they'll die pretty quick.

    The pvp changes can be removed or worked around. All brawl will have to do is remove the attack cooldown and do something about blocking other than the terrible shield band aid fix they added.

    Let me end this right here - I am not starting a flame war in public forums.

    Elytra - Can fly about 5000 blocks without landing - Makes travel way too easy (tried and tested).
    Chorus Fruit - Can eat and instantly teleport into bases - on factions this would be disastrous.
    No Sword Blocking - Ruins block/hit PvP.
    Instant Damage Arrows - Bows are just rediculously OP now.
    Damager Timers - I have tried this personally - It doesn't add more skill, it just ruins the combat style we know and love - Why do you think all the good PvP servers are 1.7.

    Thats 5 main reasons out of many - the majority of the Minecraft community do not like 1.9

    Lets leave it at that please, if you want to have a discussion about 1.9 feel free to PM me ingame or on forums, not here thanks.

    Elytra - Possible to remove
    Chorus Fruit - Possible to remove
    No Sword Blocking - Shields do the same thing, so giving everyone a shield in their 2nd hand when they equip a sword will get around that change.
    Instant Damage Arrows - Can be removed
    Damager Timers - I personally think it does add more skill, but even then, it can be removed.

    As I said, Brawl is already compatible with 1.9 and combat is almost exactly the same as it is on Brawl 1.9 than Brawl 1.8 as far as I know. And, I wouldn't consider this a flame war, this is just a discussion if anything.

    All I see is 'can be removed' = Remove everything and we're back to 1.8... How fun :smile:

    They can't stay on 1.8 forever. Plus, if they do they can never utilize features of future updates that would make their servers even more fun to play.

    Plus, 1.9 is not that bad. I don't know why everyone is so pissy over a cooldown for weapons.

    The way I see it, it's not that you hate 1.9, it's that you hate change. Jeb pointed this out though the creation of
    "Jeb's Law".
    People have been wanting a revamped combat system. They were given what they asked for, and they complained.
    Besides, there are players out there who say Minecraft should have stayed in Classic Mode.
    I personally am not bothered at all by the new stuff. I simply don't care.

    We asked for more ways to be creative in combat and more tools to play with, not a complete overhaul. This new combat system is like changing the Halo franchise from a sci-fi game to a medieval game. Plus it is very unbalanced.

    People hate change - True fact. A lot of people may hate an update because it introdcues changes they didn't expect or are not familiar with. However, they have completely changed the way combat works - Virtually none of the PvP skills people may have learned so far will be useful in 1.9. Whats the point in strafing if you got to wait 1 second before its worth hitting your opponent again - Your opponent will have managed to get control of the strafe in that time cause he isn't getting hit constantly.

    It isn't a complete overhaul. Instead of blocking with a sword, you need to craft/find another item that you can use to block. Instead of spam clicking, you need to time your hits, and be more precise with aiming. You still left click to hit people, and you still right click to block. It's hardly an overhaul.

    I've played a new 1.9 server similar to survival PvP. You can still strafe, you just need to do more things to keep a combo going. Its still possible to get a combo, its just more complicated. I personally thought PvP used to be way too simple so I like the changes, although others might disagree.

    Nonetheless I'll still miss the olden days of Minecraft. I missed playing survival back in alpha/beta, so I've started doing a playthrough where I started in alpha 1.1 and I'm currently going through all the versions, purely for the nostalgia. Albeit being no-one online half the time, whenever there is, I play an old-school CTF even though I like some of the changes Brawl have added, purely for the nostalgia. People just let nostalgia and memories take over their feelings too much. Its not an issue with Mojang or Minecraft, its not even an issue with gaming, its just an issue with humans. Its something everyone has to get used to.

    Funny, but it's not flame war. It's a debate

    It will only get back there if people discover our server. Those who left think the network was closed and I am afraid they may not return.
