Similarly to the sprint goal, this would be an objective that you overlap with more "regular" gameplay, but i feel that it's made more interesting by crouching being something that actually has downsides

sprinting also has a big downside since youre slower when you dont jump
Extasly
ExtaslyOP2 months ago
is that how it works?
Chysery

Yes

Sprint jumping is faster for speed, sprinting without jumping is how you do the goal

3 minutes seems longgg idk maybe 1 minute would already be interesting?
Eh nvm you can sneak while you dig stuff

idk 3 was my first idea of a time that makes it so that you'd have to crouch at moments that aren't completely free but also doesn't make you become a snail for half the game, could be wrong tho

Rather than making it a time based thing make it travel a certain distance like the sprinting one. 1km is probably too far but maybe 300m. This would mean you can't crouch whilst mining stuff or crafting, you would have to be moving.

honestly not bad idea
you eventually crouch all game so if you think about it its a end game mission

I think 2m are the maximum maybe 1m 30s is good as well but 2m seems more good
nakedhippo219587
nakedhippo2195872 months ago
what I mean that players won't go for it and rather wait till they are close
nakedhippo219587
nakedhippo2195872 months ago
but I think crouch+w
and not just crouch

I like crouch for 3 minutes a lot.

You can crouch whenever you mine and when it's time to force it you can stock up extra blocks

crouch 3 mins is definitely better than crouch 300m

crouch 3 mins has good overlaps crouch 300m is just slop

the overlap is the same

I wonder if people would temp turn on toggle crouch for interfaces lol
Ellivers

in 26.1 you don't sneak in interfaces even if toggle sneak is on

What if you place a slab over your head

i think then youre in the crouch animation but not technically crouched
your nametag is still visible at least

The idea of my opponent having to force it amuses me greatly

Threadfinn

Like is sprint 1k also slop but sprint for 5 minutes would be a good goal?
Threadfinn

Are there really any functional differences other than:
A) making swift sneak not affect the goal (which didn't really matter anyways)
B) Meaning people don't need to think about when to crouch. Just press a single button and you're making progress on the goal. If it's a distance, you still can make progress at any time you would've made progress on a time limit goal, but you have to think about it more since you need to move, i.e. circling a tree while you break it, strafing side to side while digging down/pillaring up.

IMO having it be a time limit is just boring, it could literally be a goal you press toggle crouch then go the bathroom and come back to a completed goal.

because sneaking is horribly slow, time is better
marvel
marvel2 months ago
it would not be fun at all
marvel
marvel2 months ago
sprint for distance makes sense, sneak for time makes sense
marvel
marvel2 months ago
you can sneak while fighting
marvel
marvel2 months ago(edited)
the strats would be different and that's fun too. making it just the same goal as sprint 1km is uninspiring

marvel

you would always overlap it with something unless you want to lose
marvel
marvel2 months ago
crouch/sneak/whatever

beniibobs2 months ago(edited)
I think the strats would realistically be whoever overlaps the most with smelts/caving/bastion trading. I feel like it’s too much of a loss of tempo to force it earlygame otherwise.

Threadfinn
Threadfinn2 months ago
Obviously it would be less than 1k
Threadfinn
Threadfinn2 months ago
Sneaking is 1.3 m/s or 1.8 if you strafe diagonally. Probably 250m would be best, that would take just over 3 minutes of normal sneaking.
Threadfinn
Threadfinn2 months ago
Or maybe just 200m.
Threadfinn
Threadfinn2 months ago
If sprint 1k were replaced by sprint for 180 seconds it would be nearly the exact same same goal as what it is rn.
Extasly
ExtaslyOP2 months ago
because you can sprint pretty much anytime, even just in circles if you're waiting for something, sneaking meanwhile means you basically can't explore / travel, so it feels like quite frustrating design to force you to do exactly that
Extasly
ExtaslyOP2 months ago
idk to me draftout is at it's most fun when you can overlap goals / have multiple lines to get to something
nakedhippo219587
nakedhippo2195872 months ago(edited)
you already doing that without realizing
while mining and building up/down
nakedhippo219587
nakedhippo2195872 months ago
it's ofc an end game mission to complete
nakedhippo219587
nakedhippo2195872 months ago
if somebody can test in a draftout comp how much they crouched all game would be good knowledge to understand how much you do that ij game
Threadfinn
Threadfinn2 months ago
sprinting also slows you down, which is why it's almost always a late midgame goal
Threadfinn
Threadfinn2 months ago
and you can circle while crouching and waiting too, you don't have to sprint or stand perfectly still to make your furnaces work

a little bit out of topic, is the sprint, wear pumpkin goal cumulative or consecutive? im too scared to test it in a real match?
pinkpuff

Cumulative!
GracefulBeauty

you can also test it in lobby with a custom board and commands like /give @p carved_pumpkin

could be some fun/weird overlap with 50/100 crafts (or really any goal that requires a lot of menuing), if you put a slab over ur head to lock urself in crouch
Lexingtonius
Lexingtonius2 months ago
i thought this'd be bad at first becuase i thought it would punish hold sneak over toggle sneak, but it turns out menus stop ur sneak even on toggle so that wouldnt matter
isawabelle
isawabelle2 months ago
idk if this would/should count since despite being in the crouch animation you don't get the effects of being crouched (like your nametag is still visible and interactions act as if you aren't crouched)
Lexingtonius
Lexingtonius2 months ago
Oh I see
Lexingtonius
Lexingtonius2 months ago
I would hope it would if the goal was a thing because it would add a lot of depth aga
