All Networks Bedrock PvP knockback improvements (Vertical knockback)

[HoppyFrog]

CubeCraft has always been my favorite server, but it's pvp isn't.


Reason:
Compared to other servers, CubeCraft has an extremely low vertical knockback amount. This means that the opponent does not go up very much when hit. This makes it very hard to actually get good combos on CubeCraft.

This is why I'm suggesting adding at least a little more vertical knockback to improve CubeCraft pvp experiences

I like that cubecraft has lower knock-back, because I think it’s good that combos are more challenging to pull off, and require more skill to achieve. I’ve found that with high knockback, it is a lot harder to escape combos, which causes battles to be won by whoever could start a combo first. Making adjustments to cubecraft’s PvP mechanics could make people who like the current ones leave. In my opinion, knock back on cubecraft should be left alone.

CubeCraft Games uses Java knockback, as we also use Java servers (including on Bedrock) which translate Bedrock packets and movements into Java formatting that our server can recognise. I like the current KB. Not being flung into the air is great when you want to escape a combo, and it's the same on Java Vanilla. I agree with Roxrock here, higher kb would be worse for players who aren't trying to dragclick or use special mouse methods. If you are trying to play with vanilla mouse controls, not trying to abuse the heck out of your mouse by adding tape to it or other things, it makes the game significantly harder.

Personally, I think dragclicking should have stayed bannable. If Dragclicking was bannable, then updating the kb might have been a good idea, but it is just way too easy to take advantage of someone when using drag and hitting them into a combo.

As a mobile player, I agree. I don't like Zeqa knockback because it is way to high. I was simply suggesting a small raise to get someone a little more off the ground

This was just a comment on personal experience,

Usually in games such as EggWars, combo-ing a person works effectively for me. The player is usually high enough for me to combo, and is definitely enough for a player to be combo-ed. This too is said without the use of hacks or any other client. The vertical knockback is usually enough for me (personally) to knock a person into the void (for example), which I experience while playing on the Bedrock Platform.

Although I have minimal experience in Java, taking Hazard's word, Java servers should also have enough vertical knockback, as the same 'Java knockback' is used on both platforms.

Just letting you know again that I wanted to share a personal experience and a view from my side on this topic.

I disagree with increasing vertical kb, it makes combat a lot worse than how it is currently by making fights much more difficult and unenjoyable for most players.

However, I have a proposed idea instead:
How about increasing the horizontal kb slightly, it'll make fights more fun and can be countered unlike increasing vertical kb. I would like to see more consistent kb as well, since when one person takes more kb than the other especially when both players trade hits isn't fun at all

Ye some ppl take next to no kb (Mostly mobile players). And I know they aren't jump resetting coz I try randomizing my hits and it still does nothing for their kb.

all you have to do is strafe, sprint reset, and use snowballs. it's not that hard to combo on Cubecraft. and Upwards kb is stupid
