This is a surprisingly competent game. Despite not having features like shift-clicks, it has one of the best implementation of building animations. Graphics are very clear to understand too.
it has shift clicks, but not fully and pretty bug, great mod, but the author needs to add some features :D shift click worked for me when building couple structures at once
It's actually so interesting how much can be made in minecraft, if java had bedrock level amount of customization for plugins we would have servers that don't even need mods for this
The suspense when the opponent attacked for the first time and Harstem failed to notice until they were directly on top of the base despite no fog xD thankfully the attack squad wasnt too dangerous
Imagine playing this with some people in RTS mode and others in normal minecraft mode at the same time. You could either play a commander with some players as "hero" units, or asymmetric style and have Commander vs survival players.
I really hope this mod blows up and gets a bunch of Addons with that purpose in mind. There are plenty of great RPG style mods that could be implemented to give a set of players on one or both sides to act as hero type units in a symmetric or asymmetric style of game mode, I would love to see people making new factions and features using content for other mods for the RTS side so people can come up with some crazy combinations. Imagine someone pulling the stuff from Alex’s Mobs/Caves or Ice and Fire to make new units, or from Ars Nouvea for a new Mage type faction or a new mechanic, Create is also another that could be implemented. Archimedes Ships for boats and Airships as units. An actual End faction is possible with mods. You could make a whole Aether or Betweenlands faction easy. There’s so much that could be implemented with this framework it boggles the mind.
@@bookwyrmbaneoftheplothole8500 I think normal players acting as "Hero" units would work right now if you install mods that make players OP like Apotheosis which allows them to get gear that will make them very hard to kill so scaling would work despite unit health and damage being inflated as is (you can either give them the stuff as a player in creative via commands/creative inventory or give them several hours to grind up to the level before you start RTSing but that might not be as fun)
Honestly since this is a Minecraft mod you can probably stack other mods on top of it too with no issue. It's probably really quick to cobble together an expansion pack or 2 from mods that add extra mobs. And of course there's always shaders to make things look 👌
I'd love to see a mod a implements create just to make the buildings animated/have moving stuff on them for beauty purposes. Or like a someone just remaking DoW in minecraft with this
Adding Archimedes ships or similar mod to get big, nice looking ships and airships could greatly enhance the game.. Transport ships, fishing and maybe even naval combat..
This is insane, the fact that it works so well while actually running Minecraft. Like, i would believe that it's easier to make this as a standalone Minecraft clone than a minecraft mod
@@allan_8680 and apparently you can have normal survival players interacting with the RTS gameplay, killing mobs, damaging buildings by breaking blocks etc
this looks like one of those fps rts games where there’s one commander and players on the ground. I feel like it would be so fun playing 3v3 with 2 ground players and 1 commander each.
Nah Minecraft Legends is a good Game. Versus Mode is fun too but not until the Enemy Spawns 3 Firsts of stone & Destroy everything your Team has ever built.
Microsoft has an opportunity here man. This would be a crazy new RTS game if they fully polish it. Of course with the mod author being hired on or highly involved in someway. Dope
Mojang would remove hunting because it might make kids hunt animals in real life or something. And then add cosmetic faction microtransactions, while adding a couple actual features once a year.
@@Chicky_Lumps tbh we already have hunting in minecraft, that's not a hangup at all otherwise, we would not have the raw chicken or the raw beef (and there would be no way to jump for either of them)
@@TheOneWhoHasABadName The joke is that Mojang's new leadership is overly concerned with environmental messaging to children over making survival mechanics as they should be.
It'd be cool to see and end faction added one day, but sadly it only has like 3 mobs and a super unit.... I mean.... technically maybe you could ladd guardians to it 🤔 I really hope this mod spawns a community of submods for it.
Alternatively, we could add the steve faction instead bc there are quite plenty of ideas to go with on that one: -Knight (can switch between a sword, trident, or axe + armor & shield) -Mace Knight (mace & wind charge + armor & shield) -Archer (can switch between bow or crossbow) -Chemist (potion thrower like witches) -Cavalier (knight/mace knight unit upgrade) -Donkey Cavalier (archer/chemist unit upgrade) -Elytra Glider (flies while moving, but lands into the ground when stationary) -Wolf -Fox -Snow Golem I can see the faction being more reliant on upgrades compared to the other 3 or alternatively, being more micro heavy units bc they don't really have a big unit.
some factions from _other_ minecraft mods would be insane to add potentially. i would _love_ to play as the Deep Ones from Alex's Caves, in particular.
If you guys know Warcraft 3 Frozen Throne/Reign of Chaos, the way the nether spreads reminds me of the way Blighted ground spreads for the undead, I also think the human equivalent race is the villagers and the night elves being the monsters since they're a lot closer to being one with nature.
I'd legit love to see Harstem play a bit more of this, maybe learn some new units and tech I'm AMAZED that this is a MOD of a minecraft and not just a skin it's INSANE
If this mod somehow added Z-levels (so you could play on mountains and in caves) and maybe a bit more quality of life for unit selection, this would genuinely become one of the most exciting RTS games on the market, in cometition with bespoke RTS.
Damn, people really saw Minecraft Legends crash and burn as a pseudo-rts game, and then said "hold my beer" and made this. Cant wait to see the same thing happen for the movie
A random request I know, but you should include a link to the mod's Curseforge and/or Modrinth page in the description, that way people who are interested can check out the mod.
So it's Age of Empires but with mythical creatures from Minecraft? So that's why they call it Mine"craft" xD They definitely can get some money if they release this mod officially
need to use this with RPG mods, and have some players not using the RTS mode, so you have factions that are being player controlled that normal players have to work with or against helldivers style
Can't wait for mod collaborations for this, just imagine a vanilla friendly side faction from another mod. Lord of the Rings, Vikings, Humans in general or the end with some added content from other mods.
Shoutouts to youtube game detection which is pretty sure this is Starcraft II. Close enough, buddy, you did your best. Just sometimes your best is not enough
This is literally what minecraft legends should have been. If Mojang made a good proper RTS with minecraft I think it would do well. Minecraft as a game already would work well with a RTS and this looks really good.
Yes that's what Minecraft looks like when your not in RTS mode. I'm a Minecraft player not an RTS player, and the mode you were in was Creative thus why you were able to destroy blocks on contact instantly, your also semi immortal in Creative, only a /kill command or the void would get you in a creative mode, now if command blocks enabled the /tp commands to yourself on repeat would cause you to not move, status effects like mining fatigue while TPing to yourself creates situations where you can get extremely trapped and things, but don't overthink it, glad you bought Minecraft, I'm sure you can combine the mod with other mods to add interesting aspects to the game as alot of mods can stack believe it or not, for instance Terrain/Biome mods, you can add danger to both players by adding Mobs from mob mods etc. Really depends what exactly you want really.
Omg. If there was a battalion wars like POV switching (ie, puts you in the shoes of a worker/piglin in the field, while also being able to control units)
If this gets developed in the right way, it definitely has potential. Especially with the fackt that you have more dynamic heights so this gets even more of strategic value.
That is kinda my experience playing stock CnC 2 Tibsun hard AI skirmishes. They do execute a solid strategy with near-perfect micro that indeed can win against a human person. Yet they can only execute that one particular strategy and literally nothing more. They can of course be outmacroed by a smarter long-term growth strategy, or can be absolutely cheesed to death. And there are just oh so-so many cheeses of all sorts of different flavours in CnC, the AI being every time like the first time vulnerable to these sneaky exploits
Harstem playing Minecraft was the last thing I expected, also RUclips categorizing it as Stacraft 2 is hella funny

@@VasiliyOgniov yup it's called reign of nether
minecraft allows players to do wild shit with its code yeah

What's even wilder is that there is a Minecraft RTS game that everyone forgot existed.

The best part is that you can play it with players playing vanilla while 2 or more players have an RTS war, its dope to play with friends
some of the coolest rts hybrid games has this. battlezone'99/bz2:cc, natural selection, savage 2, etc ..
Can the vanilla players interact with the RTS meaningfully?
