Alternative title: rating updates based on their fps

Honestly, grading the versions on performance rather than actual content makes this tier list sort of invalid for me. I don‘t care if i have 1000 or 800 fps. If my eyes can‘t spot the difference, i won‘t complain. And no, you won‘t see a difference between 150 and 300 fps

sprinting was way before 1.7, you used to have to double tap w to sprint instead of having its own button

There is one thing that baffled me about this entire video, the focus on framerates and how it was enough to bump down updates multiple tiers when they were still above 60. 120 is more than enough fps to play the game and an update should not be thrown into the darkest pit of hades because it "Only runs at 120 fps". Doesn't help that the logic is applied at seemingly random too, since some updates have extremely low framerates and get placed high, yet other updates that were praised were tossed to the bottom for having the same low framerates. That is just mind boggling logic to me.

Only listened to your first 3 opinions, though hearing you care about the framerate and dissing 1.3 for the framerate cap boils my fucking blood, it's not that big of a deal man Edit: I did listen to the rest of le video after commenting, I still think framerate should not be a major factor

okay literally who hasn't spent like 10 minutes looking for the hidden treasure under desert wells

7:22 that's just straight up incorrect 😂 Sprinting was added all the way back in beta 1.8, before the 1.0 update. You just had to double tap W for it to activate

1.14 changed the textures, 1.17 changed the ore textures, and technically the caves and cliffs update was split into four parts because of archeology I loved 1.19 because of how easy it was to find and raid an ancient city with just a pickaxe and shears, and if you find a mending diamond hoe and destroy all the shriekers the deep dark becomes free xp. Plus wardens are very fun to mess around with I personally enjoyed armor trims, it’s fun collecting them and showing them off to your friends

The transition from "maybe 1.17 wasn't so bad after all, time made me appreciate it more" to "EVERY MODERN UPDATE SUCKS CAMEL BALLS" was really eye opening tbh

1.3 D tier because of 120 FPS??? Bruh, I used to play on 20 FPS all the time because I never touched the settings and I was FINE with it. Who do you think you are, fancy PC owner? You better look at us back in the day, Whimzee.

"The end dimension and the final boss of the game.... Villagers" -Whimzee

3:45 what? Why would you even want to play the game at over 120fps? Seriously

D tier for 1.3 is crazy

Blud is complaining for 105 fps while I’m sitting here averaging 27 fps💀

1.13 would not be disappointing if we got it now. It’s not every update we get 5 new biomes, 8 new mobs, a new good weapon, new building blocks as goated as the ones added in 1.13, 2 new cool structures, a mechanic as useful as bubble columns, and overall such a drastic change to the overworld.

Why do you need more than 120 fps though? I can barely tell the difference between 60 and 120 anyway, much less 300.

105 fps update in B tier is egregious when a brand new biome is in C

1.12 is underated imo, the modern building age would litteraly not exist without it. (Also the nether is actually bearable to look at now)

10:57 He said, "1000 FPS" and showed it running at 670.

bro really was so harsh to every update simply because its fps went down a little 😂

Putting 1.12 in d-tier is psychologically wrong

New title: I ranked the frame rate of every Minecraft update

imagine caring so much about fps and neglecting all the other features in an update

Sprinting was in the game before 1.7, it was double tap W, but I don't know when it was added. Also the textures changed in 1.14, honestly this gives some points to the version imo but i agree with basically everything

Is 120 fps that bad? 60 fps looks good to me honestly...

1.20 is a S tier update, we got ARMOR TRIMS!

As someone who plays modern Minecraft on Xbox 1, seeing Minecraft with fps in the hundreds baffles me

Imagine complaining about not being able to receive over 120 fps it's like I'm watching a toddler throw a tantrum

Ok bro this guy needs to do his research. Sprinting was introduced way back in beta, the textures changed during 1.14 not 1.17 and he called 1.12 1.2

1.20 deserves better than a F

1.13 beloved update... I remember people got all kinds of mad because of the stability was soooo bad until 1.13.2... We literally hit a dark point in the games history at that point.... at least until 1.13.2 when they fixed the issue. which later happens again with pillager outposts... and took updates to fix because the jira's staff refused to acknowledge its existence so we had to give videos proving it was vanilla on single player happening and on servers. also 1300 fps, great you had a good experience... there's tons of videos showing the performance was bad mostly for servers were the worst with it. I remember the TPS dropping all the dang time with the stupid cod. We had to use a plugin that prevent cod spawn until it was fixed.. which fixed the tps.. Single player wasnt as bad probably because you dont stay in areas long enough for cod to have been an issue on that world. Dont get me wrong, I love minecraft, and I loved all these updates for what they were. but the performance was obvious especially on servers.

"It was small, so D tier" Sorry what? Is it just me hearing that and giggling?

13:38 mumbo is that you??

Im pretty sure one of the reasons why the fps was capped at 120 fps in 1.3 was because of some poorly optimized stuff. Im not sure if it had been previously fixed but in really old versions the game would try to give as many frames as possible, for many integrated graphics devices this would cause the game to run incredibly slow (at like 1-3fps). capping the frames most likely was an attempt to fix that issue. If i am wrong do tell me, but im pretty confident that was the reason. Also im pretty sure you get more lag if you dont use Java 8 or below for the older minecraft updates, which might explain why you had 100fps despite having a good computer on 1.4.

You can barely tell changes in fps above 120 why is that such an important factor to you lmao

50:56 "great performance at 1k fps" idk is 650 is equal to 1k...

15:38 texture update is a part of 1.14, not 1.17

3:45 they didn´t add fps cap, you just had performance set to balanced and not max fps🤓

Some corrections: 1. The frame rate has never had a hard cap, it's just your PC that's doing it for some reason THEN you REALISE there's a problem with your sound later in the video but can't figure it out lol. 2. Sprinting has been in the game since before 1.0 but you could only activate it before 1.7 by double pressing W. 3. Microsoft didn't start personally developing the game after 1.8, it was still old devs like Jeb and Dinnerbone who introduced new features. 4. The textures were changed in 1.14 not 1.17. How did you not notice this?

The taxes and dental care update would go hard tbh

Horse Update - such a creative name

Heavily underrated 1.13 in this video, not only did the oceans themselves get a ton of work done on them but swimming as a whole was a gigantic edition, it makes everything before that update feel absurdly primitive

1.6 in F tier is crazy, people wanted horses for years and they also wanted another solid coloured block in which they got terracotta, 1.6 was the biggest update at the time.

at 7:56 you start by showing some footage of release 1.8, then at 8:07 you switch randomly to showing footage of beta 1.8

Dude wtf maybe trails and tails didn’t give that archeology we wanted but don’t put it in F

Whimzee complaining because the game has 120 FPS: me happy with 15 FPS:

1.14-1.17 was my fav era of minecraft

The fact that you think that 120 is a bad fps is baffling to me. 120 and 300 fps are the exact same to the eye. This is an update ranking, not an “is this fps not 1,000” ranking

The red stone “chuffed to bits part” was hilarious I was shocked for that reference

The horse you spawned was a baby. Yes baby horses are that spindly. Also, personally I think the horse update should be at least slightly higher given that the horses are the ones from Mo' Creatures back in the day and Dr. Zhark even had his name in the credits for it (I don't know if Dr. Zhark's credit is still in the game or not)

Bro, as long as you have more than 60 fps, there is no problem. Besides, it’s not like you were playing competitively in 1.4.

“WAAAHH!! WAH! a I need my 120 fps 😭😭😭” “Honey, our baby Whimzee’s throwing a temper tantrum again..”

The reason Notch could make updates every week was because his game was empty, there was nothing to do, now that there's everything, it's hard to implement something without affecting the rest of the game.

crazy minecraft has been around for 15 years. thanks a lot minecraft for making my childhood better, you'll always have a place in my heart ❤

sprinting existed before 1.0! You just had to double tap 'w'

“And the final boss of the game villagers” wait no your not wrong

him saying “i’m only getting 770 fps” is everything you need to know about this guy

1.20 is A tier, actually

FPS does not matter that much bro. 60 even maybe 30 frames per second would be fine, who the hell needs 500 FPS that badly.

1:48 You like collecting things in videogames then get every firework🗣️🗣️🗣️ Edit: Why is he rating updates by performance💀💀💀

1.13’s performance claims came from server performance. Chunk generation was exceptionally slow and treasure maps (to this day!) can cause immense lag spikes when generating the chest.. :/

who let bro cook⚰

1.20 was a really good update all around for me, we got QOL changes, and a lot of new miscellaneous features that I personally enjoy having and I use pretty much all of them in my survival world. For me it’s an A or S tier.

This is the first youtuber that doesn't trash 1.17 and 1.18, i always said that they were really good but the real problem was splitting the update, making the community upset, that doesn't mean the update is bad at all.

why did i just realize they made a bug fixing update with bees because they are bugs

Having a FPS cap is good to not destroy your GPU by asking him to do the most FPS he can do. So no, this was a good thing that they added the capping, but if you like destroying your GPU and neading to change it a lot more and spending more money just for FPS your brain can not even manage. Well then do it.

1.13 started a new era of minecraft update, it was a massive update and would definitely be popular if released now. Old water is so stinky and the old oceans and rivers were lame

Hey man what shaders do you use ?? they look great!!

4:45 Wait a minute sir, you *Do* realize that you can’t comprehend anything past 60 fps? Just because the frame rate isn’t 120 doesn’t mean it’s bad. Anything at 60 and above, means you are at a smooth fps. You don’t need anything above 60 for it to be playable.

12:52 The update was actually the cause of the return of old players, 1.14 was just a test to see if they would continue it or not.

I disagree with the idea that ppl would be underwhelmed by 1.13 in the modern day as the update completely revolutionised oceans with coral reefs, swimming mechanics, water physics and fish similar to the nether overhaul in 1.16 (which is also my favourite ever update)

Heres my favourite part of each update: 1.0 adding minecraft to minecraft how can u not like that 1.1 music disc still one of my favourite things in the game 1.2 jungle its a cool biome 1.3 villager trading i love capitalism 1.4 command bloc 1.5 tnt minecart i love trolling 1.6 horses ❤❤rocket my beloved❤❤ 1.7 SPEEED 1.8 uhhhh diorite? 1.9 elytra commiting 911 but ur the plane is fun 1.10 uhhh idk..... polar bears? 1.11 shulkers they are a game changer for me 1.12 dancin parrots while playing chirp hell ye 1.13 swimm 1.14 torturing villagers by starting a raid and leaving the villagers to deal with it 1.15 beeeeees 1.16 some people say netherite others say piglins i say pigstep 1.17 cute axolotol 1.18 people say caves and cliff generation i say otherside 1.19 people say ancient cities i say ancient cities 1.20 armor trim 1.21 people say trail chambers i say creator Did i mention i love music disc? Oh i did

What texture pack do u use in this videos

4:21 This is exactly why bedrock edition has the scariest wither

sprinting was added way back in beta 1.8

What shaders do you use ? They look really good

1.16 was the most excited I've ever been for a Minecraft update, might have been because that was when me and my friend were playing together in a world and covid though.

“and finally they added ‘wait’ the best music disc in the game” (*slams desk*) THANK YOU!

"I'm only getting 970 fps" Me who averages 90 fps:

1.20 trails and tails gave so much and it’s one of the biggest updates I’ve seen and you’re hating on it!!!

The 1.9 “anger” makes sense if you are a PvP player since the whole game changed into a more slow paced fight. If you are a PvE player of course the system is not that bad.

Interesting to see a rank like this in a vanilla (unmodded) standpoint In the modding world, a rank like this would be very different; 1.12 would be the in highest ranking precisely because of the "stagnancy" of features, that allowed mods to get complex with their mods without the worry of another version to update. 1.13 would be featured at the bottom because not only it was the first time modders and players needed to "move on" but also was a very disruptive update internally - change of numeric to string ids, the introduction of datapacks, etc. Before those, 1.7(.10) would also be featured high on the list - before 1.12 it was the version to choose to make huge modpacks - and 1.8 would be featured even lower than 1.13: it suffered not only very similar problems than 1.13 but also featured the first major incident in the history of modded, when a disgruntled Bukkit (modded server software) dev did a DCMA to a fork of the project called Spigot because the folks refused to let the whole project go down and tried to keep the Bukkit alive in some form.

15:38 That was in 1.14... Not sure how that mistake even happened

“The loot in the chest is underwhelming” Me who found 3 god apples in a single chest

You knew the long scale, the short scale. Let me introduce you to the half-short scale! 🎉 Might've forgotten a few 0s

0:36 didnt know the final boss of the game was villagers

ABOUT THE BRUNING DOWN WOODLAND MANSIONS I like it too you get to find all the secret rooms

you GOTTA drop the mod list for cyberpunk holy crap

"We got ___ ____ ___ and exp bottles overall we dont use these to often" our current meta for pvp

15:38 this was in 1.14 not 1.17, and they changed pretty much every texture in the game. It looks a lot better than the old textures in my opinion.

Great video man, i wish these people would appreciate what you did good in the video instead of focussing on the one thing that they didn’t like, i agree with you on the fps thing i dont get how people dont understand that lol.

“I Ranked Every Minecraft Update’s Framerate”*

The 1.12 was a good update for builders like me, because now we can make realistic things like mountains, house, and other things. but for the people in general, they don't like the update and I'm understand that.

Where is the next part of the end update ? ❤

You missspeled some ubdate names: -1.19: Caves and Cliffs part 3 -1.20: Caves and Cliffs part 4 -1.21: Caves and Cliffs part 5

I think 1.13 is an S tear Minecraft update and it's my favorite update in Minecraft❤❤

Bro 1.7 didn't add sprinting beta 1.8 added sprinting learn facts

Bumping down good updates several tiers because of FPS caps its actually ridiculous, especially when the update was made a decade before your PC was built

rank every minecraft youtuber next
