Why do I got a feeling that armadillos are going to be a “meme mob” in the future?
I LOVE MOB VOTES!!!!!!!!!!
It is quite obvious that the eye placement for the armadillo should be on separate sides of the head like a horse rather than face front over the nose like a dog. For the wolf armor i hoped that its current potential would be much greater than that of horse armor like special gimmicks, but unfortunately now that i see how minecraft right now is going for the same basic defense without any additions, i can imagine that the crabs fans are laughing right now knowing that this lack of convenience would happen.
Finally, bedrock gets the update, instead of Java not only had it snapshot but in main game like candles, even being only bedrock got it, GET ROASTED JAVA
Most underwhelming update
I still have no idea how armadillos won
Oh look the dog armor is WORTHLESS.
get in touch, we need enchantments for the armor. imagine frostwalker and protection on it.
crab 😩
I still don’t get how the penguin did not win the mob vote…
I appreciate Mojang does FREE DLC’s so i won’t complain about it. I still like the life that it brings. But more so questioning giving players the ability to vote for additions in the game.
features coming to bedrock before java, what has happened to mojang devs
honestly the armadillo is very underwhelming
Scute should be renamed to Turtle Scute
I was hoping they would make the dog armor “padded” and stick out more than just retexturing some pixels. Would make it feel like it’s wearing the armor instead of just getting a few pixels changed
i think arrows should bounce off them. in reference to that unlucky fellow and his mom.
To be honest it would be interesting if they added animation for armadillo when it is being brushed. Like it goes on its back and wiggles or something.
I wonder if there's a way to detect armadillos curling up in order to make an undead mob detector?
I'm glad they didn't made it more realistic to get the armadillo's armor
Everytime you say "wolfs armor" i hear "wool farmer"
Nice to see the brush get some more use! But it’s a little disappointing how shallow the wolf armor is. Horse armor has multiple tiers. Player armor can be dyed and trimmed. But wolf armor is just one and done…
given how they used scutes to make the wolf armor, i wonder if they would have added it anyway using turtle scutes if the armadillo didn't get in and the crab won instead
Personally I don’t really like their designs (I voted for it by the way) the armour looks cool but if it can’t even survive a creeper it seems pretty useless
Creepers can one shot a player in full Diamond armour why did you think putting one next to the Dogs was a good idea?
I feel like the Brush Scute drop is just for testing purposes, and won't actually exist in the full update. Or at least there will be a long cooldown
Kinda sad the armadillos don't try and turn into a block like shulkers with startled
One question:
Like the turtle or the boat or the shulker, does the Armadillo have an absolute collision box?
So that we can stand on top of it?
Especially when the Armadillo has curled up?
৲(⬮◞⬮)ﾉ
That's just terrible.
I hate the new Armadillo.
Technoblade would have loved wolf armor for his army.
The damage of a creeper depends on the difficulty, on easy, without armour dogs survive one creeper, unless they explode right next to them.
And such a disappointment…
My little 2 cents for the armadillo:
The armor should be dyable (aceplante stay tf away) so it can, for ex., make it easier for players to tell who's wolf is who's
It would be nice if they scared spiders away similar to how cats scare away creepers. God knows we need those 8-legged spawns of hell away from our base.
I find it a bit strange seeing the head sticking out when it curls, considering that's not entirely the case irl
I think a smoother animation for when an armadillo curls and uncurls would be nice (look at @EightSidedSquare's concept)
They should take no/barely any damage when curled up
They need to make the wolf armor not too OP. Imagine a wolf pack of it like 20 or something and all of them have wolf armor, PVP would be ruined. It would be just a wolf fight
Wish there was a second use for scute because dogs are a waste of time imo
Oh my goodness this is such a mess… Mojang…
As a proud armadillo voter I am pleased
I feel like collecting the scute should work a bit more like wool, I know mojain wants to not promote violence and all but people do hunt animals in the wild, maybe brushing gives you more and killing only has a chance of dropping is fine to deture players from attacking them.
Hey! Hey! Feed the machine!
So no termites lame
Are the armadillos going to jump? That would be nice.
Hope we can dyed the wolf armor
Prediction: "scute" will be renamed to "turtle scute" soon.
I'd bet money on that.
Same way "seeds" became "wheat seeds"
My ideas
1. Make it dyeable!
2. Maybe instead of one variant only, if you add one iron/gold/diamond/netherite it will upgrade the armour for that level. Without any added it will be the equivalent of leather
3. Instead of shearing, add a dog inventory and you can place and remove the armour there like a horse (maybe in the future dog inventory can have more features)
4. Armour trims for dogs?
5. The brush should not be instant but instead have a (short) brush animation cuz it looks kind of odd just tapping the armadillo with a brush
6. When curled up, the armadillo should gain armour points
wolf armor definitely needs a lot of work still
The wolf armor icon kinda looks like a wolf head facing right, i hope they keep it that way 🙂
I randomly fully modded the Armadillo like almost a month ago by myself… HOW TF ARE THEY NOT DONE YET??? WHAT ARE THEY PROGRAMMING?? Like legit it aint that hard to copy paste the code of a mob, change all directories with a tool for custom mobs, than hardcode all the features in… Thats like 16h of work tops without the official programming tools… HOW TF ARE THEY TAKING SO LONG?? Either way its nice to finally see it in action from the official game
It was actually really cool because I saw a real armadillo for the first time in anticipation for when it would finally come out in-game, and I can confirm they are very cute!
Xisuma calling the wolves "doggos" is quite adorable
Not only should they be more resistant while curling up, they also shouldn't open up when hit. To the contrary, they should curl up upon hit.
