I agree that pistons are too loud, but this new sound isn't it, man. Doesn't sound mechanical anymore, old sound had weight to it, it really sounds like something heavy being pushed

Eating food is a universal human experience that extends far beyond the basic act of nourishment. It encompasses cultural traditions, social interactions, sensory pleasures, and health considerations, shaping our identities and lifestyles. This essay delves into the multifaceted significance of eating food, exploring its roles in nourishment, cultural heritage, social bonding, and personal well-being.

@Aderon 21 күн бұрын

I'd rather the piston 'kerchunk' was just flattened down a bit than to get a new sound. The piston sound as it stands now is one of the most iconic sounds in minecraft, and while it is noisy, it's completely unambiguous as to what that sound means. Redstone component's already have a ton of simple high-short sounds like dispensers, droppers, various door sounds, as well as a litany of other redstone component related sounds that all fall in the same range. Pistons may be noisy, but this new sound is like adding another fire alarm to the list of ones you need to find and change the batteries in, while the old piston sound is mellow like the dull thrum of a pleasant rainstorm.

that piston sound... not a big fan of it yes it was loud but that old mechanical sound I preferred a lot more, made it sound like there was real machinery at work but I guess it is what it is... at least resource packs could be used to bring that old sound back

@wolffiusmacbeth6472 21 күн бұрын

Thanks Mojang and Slicedlime! Can I make a suggestion? Loudness isn't just a piston problem, it's a problem with mobs and other blocks as well in many circumstances. Perhaps the game could have a more general solution such as recognizing when there are too many sounds (especially) similar sounds playing and lowering the gain on them, or adding a limiter. Thoughts?

@user-tzzglsstle585e38 12 күн бұрын

Pretty sure they already have a maximum cap for the amount of sounds that plays at the same time, I guess what they can do is allow us to configure that through sound settings

@Silinox_ 21 күн бұрын

I think it's a good idea to reduce the sound of the piston but for me it's too much, you should keep the old sound and tweak it just enough to make it less noisy

@TheCJBrine 21 күн бұрын

I agree with others here about the piston sound, the new one is too wet and weak, and sounds more like a plastic toy or clicker thing than a piston. Even when it’s pushing just one block or nothing, it doesn’t feel like it fits what I’m seeing. It doesn’t sound like a full block-sized, wooden/stone mechanism that pushes stuff around. It feels even weirder when hearing it while seeing contraptions like piston doors or the ones here in action (the flying machine feels too quiet as well, and the observer clock even makes it seem goofy tbh xD). It needs more strength to it, imo. The old one had mechanical charm, and personally never bothered me, though I can see how it’d bother others. I feel more general volume options may be a better solution, since piston sounds aren’t the only ones to bother people, and many still like them anyway.

@Lalovoe 21 күн бұрын

@Lalovoe 21 күн бұрын

The new piston sound is a miss in my opinion. Old one was too loud I agree, but at least it felt more heavy-duty and like it actually moves blocks. Even if this newer sound sticks around I would still want it louder, because honestly I had trouble hearing it without blowing my ears with the rest of the audio in this video. In-game it can also now only be heard from a very short distance which I'm not a fan of either.

@th3craftymin3r32 21 күн бұрын

The new piston sound effect sounds... wet. It sounds like its squishy rather than the mechanical clank that the sound had before. I overall dislike this new sound because it lacks the mechanical-ness the old sound had.

I think overhauling the swamp and giving more spawning locations for witches (for example through multiple witch huts connected with walk ways in stilts) would have been the better solution and keeping more with lore, as witches really should drop all their ingredients at about the same rate. But I get that you want to get the raid changes done this update and you can't pack a swamp overhaul into the same update, considering the time constraints and all the stuff that is already in there. So I get why you went for the quick fix. I just worry that now we'll never get more/bigger witch huts, since you probably won't be able to revert this change.

As a pvp player I really hope the java mace base stats are adjusted before release, the current slow attack speed makes it feel extremely clunky and unfun to fight with. The only reason breach was good is because the base stats of the pre-nerf mace made it a decent side grade to swords, but with the current abysmal attack speed there's no reason to use it over a sword on the ground (it gets outDPSed by unenchanted diamond or sharp 1 iron), and a density mace in the air. I find it odd that this update's flagship weapon is now less useful than a trident despite being far harder to obtain than a trident, and these bad stats sticking around through multiple snapshots is concerning. :(
