Minecrafts Evolution Of Mining...

- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 1 ม.ค. 2021
- Mining is a core part of minecraft, its arguably its most important element. But since minecraft began in 2009, mining strategies have changed drastically and we have gone from simple holes in the ground, to tiny strip mines and than to gigantic tnt powered quarries. So how did this happen?

The old mining iron ore with your fist to get yourself few blocks of iron looks so cursed nowadays
lol true
God I miss those days
Lmao yeah
Started playing Beta 1.3. Didn't know that was a thing before
I started on alpha 1.2.6
Pretty much like almost everyone because that's the time youtubers started doing their thing

@@fevad1675 That's right, mining is not only looking for ores, it's breaking blocks in general

If you mine at the beginning of surface caves you find lava which is important in speed run. That’s a lot of mining because you have to go to y 11

I remember when enchantments got added I thought fortune was cheaty and refused to use it for like 2 years
good memories
I thought fortune would give me more experience when killing a mob... God, I was so sad when I realized what fortune actually was
@@unruidodefondo I remember that rumour floating around my school
omg welsh flag WOO
I remember when enchantments came out I looked up the name of fortune 3 and efficiency 5 in their little Mc language. 30 mins later and lots of jus closing enchantment table, I got it. That might be been cheating lol.
My only old school memory around enchanting was the snapshot where they first added xp, i went and mined coal to level 100 as the xp curve was linear at the time(Not that i could use it cause i don't think enchanting existed in that snapshot yet).
I remember being scared of caves because of the mobs ,specifically creepers ,but I lost the fear and actually i can mine without problems lol
But now with the upcoming caves and cliffs maybe the caves will be more dangerous or idk
Me too lol i scared mining when minecraft bedrock release nether uodate cuz for the first tine in minecraft bedrock cave sounds were added bruh

It is correct to be 2020, since the last progress made was in 2020

It always annoyed me that people call branch mining "strip mining" when TNT mining is much more like real strip mining. I started with a network of 2x2 tunnels until I learned about pinwheel mining and see no reason to abandon it when it comes to just getting diamonds -- though caving for iron worth it for the fun and gets plenty of iron and coal.
I'm kinda bummed that he didn't go into any mining patterns in the vid.
branch mining is when you make separate *BRANCHES* off of the original tunnel or *STRIP*
@@aquticdan678 "Surface mining, including strip mining, open-pit mining and mountaintop removal mining, is a broad category of mining in which soil and rock overlying the mineral deposit are removed, in contrast to underground mining, in which the overlying rock is left in place, and the mineral is removed through shafts or tunnels."
They're talking about how strip mining in the context of Minecraft is the complete opposite of what strip mining means in real life:
"Strip mining is the practice of mining a seam of mineral, by first removing a long strip of overlying soil and rock (the overburden); this activity is also referred to as overburden removal."
More realistic names for mining methods in Minecraft would be:
1. Drift mining (Horizontal tunnels, what we typically refer to as strip mining)
2. Slope mining (Staircasing)
3. Shaft mining/sinking (Vertical shaft, as was common in Alpha)
4. Stope or "room and pillar" mining (Excavating a large area with a beacon)
5. Finally, strip mining (Removing the surface layers of dirt and stone to expose ores further underground, aka quarrying)
You can read about real-life mining techniques and draw your own equivalents here: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mining#Underground_mining
The old mining and blocks dropping is SO weird what do you think about it?
It is weird the items are 2d and they turn to face u

@@WishingWell24 True, accounting for movement speed is also important, because you may mine more efficiently, but that doesn't mean you mine more effectively. You may lose time mining more efficiently when you could've mined more blocks overall.
Technically you could beat the game without mining by hitting up like 600 villages.
Mojang sure did took the cave update way too seriously, now lets wait for another 9years to get another cave update
No we just need an ore update and more armor and tools and a end update for when u defeat the dragon
After the cave update if course
I don’t think they will update the end for a very long time since you have to fight the ender dragon and is a late game thing

"So important it makes half of the game's name"
Craft which is 6.6666% more in the name: 👁👄👁
And also was added later in the game than mining.
No? 'Craft' is 11.1111.. % more than 'Mine'?
Technically Craft is 1 letter longer than mine, so yes.
Mining then: just punch ground.
Mining now: CaRpEt BoMbInG tHe LaNdScApE.
The Redstone update is the Minecraft equivalent of the Industrial Revolution, we no longer depend of manual mining but rather we use complex contraptions to mine massive chunks in a matter of minutes as oppose to hours by hand.
It's crazy how such a random topic can be done so well! Keep up the great work!
Should’ve added mining in the nether for ancient debris and beds being used as a mining technique for that.
Making a 2x1 tunnel, placing tnt every 2nd block and blowing it up definitely works better than bed mining. Beds have this annoying feature of setting everything on fire, and they fill up your invetory since they arent stackable. Tnt is the way to go
+ tnt is much faster, placing a bunch of tnt is super quick, while bed mining takes its time and you gotta do 1 by 1. And if you missclick you die xd
Since the re-spawn anchor explodes in the over world I wonder if people use it for mining?
I forgot how weird steve’s hand used to look
Neat overview! Thanks for uploading!
This video took me way back, lol. I started playing in the last days of Alpha after some college buddies introduced me to Minecraft. It may have been due to us not having any exposure to what few LPs were around back then, but our early mines typically were 1x1 vertical shafts with a ladder, that would then branch off at more or less random Y-levels in search of ore.
It's nice we're becoming more and more efficient but the only thing that matters is that we don't do it at night. Period.
Caves should definitely be a much faster way to get ores, since it's more interesting and less grindy than strip mining. To compensate, caves should be harder, with more mobs and harder mobs (as we have seen will be added), plus the drip stones if they pose any threat.
But I also think there should be something faster that can actually catch up to you easily but doesn't deal a lot of damage.
Imo Bats are a perfect mob to improve, give them double the speed and attack players, even if only dealing very little damage.
But to keep it interesting and balanced, make armour less useful against them. (so with full dia they still deal half a damage maybe, while only 2-3 hearts with no armour)
That sound annoying TBH.

watching these videos makes me almost cry,
i have been plating this game for almost as long as the game has been around.
watching how it's progressed with the minecraft music in the background is one of the most nostalgic and melancholic feelings i have ever experienced with a video game, it's up there with listening to the donkey kong country soundtrack or playing mario kart wii alone,
i feel nostalgic because i remember playing with friends when i was young in the early 2010s, as i was poor my family could not afford the newer video games,
in fact for most of my childhood we only had my mothers nintendo 64 system from when she was in high school,
it was not until we got money from remodeling a house (my father had been fired from his regular job and my parents were good at fixing and building stuff) that my brother was able to buy a run down xbox360 and a copy of minecraft that we got a "new" system,
and in mid 2012 the game was almost primitive compared to now, still it was like a kids first trip to disney land, full of wonder and splendor
but playing locally with my friends is likely my most fond memory from that time spending hours having fun and building,
and seeing how minecraft has grown over the years, with the old youtube channels going away and the new ones coming and going, it's been almost like watching a child mature and grow into a successful adult, i never want to see minecraft go away, and it really could stay forever, minecraft is an ever evolving game, it could realistically stay for 30 years with kids growing up surrounded by the game.
minecraft is one of many games i value above all others,
i have an actual list of games that shaped my taste and view of things,
sure many of these were old or not even good but they shaped my childhood
mario kart wii
halo combat evolved
minecraft
star wars episode 1 racer
donkey kong country
the leagend of zelda ocarina of time
the legend of zelda the skyward sword
the legend of zelda majora's mask
skyrim
left 4 dead
killer instinct gold
cruisin usa
there are more,
but i will always be grateful for my mother owning these old systems
for my friends letting me play their wii when i had no wii of my own
my family for letting me help remodel houses so i could buy my own games, i hope you can realize how much i value minecraft above all other games i listed, because i watched it grow as i grew, i watched it evolve, i remember being excited for the first minecraft merch being added to stores, i remember sticking by minecraft even when other games seemed to overshadow the game,
gta5 fortnite among us overwatch league of legends, whatever games came and went minecraft is still here with us
This hits different at midnight great Video 💯 so many good memories playing the alpha on my after school care computers when I got the chance haha

Hallo, nice to meet you here... ;-)
Don't get confused a strip mine is a hole from the top of the world to the bottom the skinny mines underground are called branch mines.
Bro seeing those clips from X's adventures made me so nostalgic!! That was the series that got me into Minecraft back in the day.
Aww man, I used to feel so scared when I was mining back in the day. Cave noises and stuff ;)
Here’s what I do, found a cave that goes to bedrock and just start mining coal, there are a lot of good ores hidden by coal. I didn’t know that till I mined coal and found emeralds.
Not going to say first

I build a lot of quarry mines. I know they're inefficient to find diamond and similar, but I mainly do it to dig up a lot of stone fast (during the early game, when you don't have more stone than you can store yet.)
Thank you for reminding us that the Mine was still in the Craft, and that it has actively been refined, even while we thought it was remaining unchanged.
Very in depth research for the video thank you for the quality content
TheMisterEpic: You cannot progress in Minecraft without mining.

Don't stop creating wonderful content my guy!
Minecraft is a game that literally never will get old.
It’ll only age like a fine whiskey
TheMisterEpic: “Mining is required to progress”
Speedrunners: “I have no such weakness.”
One quick note: The addition of swift sneak has made crawl-mining a lot better than it already was.
I haven't heard about TheShadowCave in a looooong time. Quite the throwback there!
There was this mod that yogscast used for their early moonquest series. It had pipes and engines and sorters and auto smelters and crafters and stuff. I forget what it’s called, but you could make quarries and so long as they were powered it’d automine that quarry and send the materials back through a pipe to storage
OMG i remember watching that first video about strip mining and being amazed. i didnt know that was the first instance it had appeared on yt!
I still remember the old Minecraft "OUGH!" fall damage noise echoing in my head. After not playing it for a while, booting it back up, and not hearing it, I was very confused. In my head it was a major stamp for me. And I still miss it.
That ladder space ladder thing at 0:58 gave me a wave of nostalgia
Great vid as always!! However in my 9+ years of playing our beautiful game - have never ever strip / trench / tnt mined - just cave crawling :) Best wishes for 2021 everyone!
awesome video :) subbed
That TNT mining is downright scary. It's litterally an ingame industrial revolution, imagine what _that_ could bring...
I did not think you could make a video about this, yet here we are
Y-12: (Minecraft Xbox 360 edition late 2012 -2013) I get a nostalgic feeling from those words and I still use the same technique of strip mining other than making my gaps have 2 blocks in between
11:30 I don't think the change to TNT is what made carpet bombing more prevalent so much as the community becoming more familiar with slimestone and flying machines thanks to the attention brought to them by big youtube channels.
More importantly, TNT still destroys dropped items, so carpet bombing can only used to expose diamond ore, at which point the machines must be stopped so a player can mine them by hand.
