Man, flashbacks to that map where people had 2 ships and would have a naval battle shooting at eachother with tnt cannons, and that other one where theyd each have a platform and would launch some of the first tnt/piston missiles at eachother.
That was Missile Wars, a 2015 collaboration between Cubehamster and Sethbling. Interestingly enough this “2022” design pretty much existed 7 years ago as well, I think Cubehamster called it a “Tactical Nuke Missile”
As a kid I didn’t know how to download maps so I slowed down one of those videos to rebuild the cannons and made ships around them on a super flat world only to realize I didn’t know how to make a multiplayer world either and never got to use them in an actual battle.
This looks like a history lesson. We come from big enough and manually loading cannons to compact semi-automatic artillery and from artillery to uncontrollable but very powerful missiles/rockets.
the fact that u can't even see the TNT (ignoring the glitch) on the missile flying machine is what makes it deadlier. people will see it coming but they won't know what will hit them till it explodes. genius
TBF, I half expected a flying machine TNT duper to fly over the house and carpet bomb it. A nuke is a one-shot weapon. The flying-machine Carpet Bomb will continue indefinitely until it hits an obstruction it cannot push. In context of weapon evolution this would be the equivalent of a self-replicating carpet bomb delivered via autonomous drone.
Damn I used to do these old tnt guns back in 2014 I remember how excited we were to be able to shoot TNT, but now these funny weapons transformed into massive destruction tools... so cool ! 😄
2012: Old timey muzzle loading cannon, slow to load, slow to fire, not very accurate 2016: A modern more compact and efficient design with a higher degree of accuracy 2022: A fucking thermobaric missile
Wait till you see the infinite range orbital strike cannon (well infinite in theory but without optimization mods it crashes your game past around 10000 Blocks)
I used pneumatic craft drones with mini guns instead of TNT cannons. I am still using those or immersive engineering potato cannons. They are a lot better cause one of them is just a flying entity and other one is just one block
There are way cooler cannons too... everything from simple scatter cannons that blow up everything in front of it to huge, complex precision machines that can shoot 20 chunks, fire a sand stack to the height limit while breaking dozens of slabs underneath it, and nuke an entire wall even covered with water. There were even cannons that could bore a tunnel that was hundreds of blocks long instantly. Factions was fun, to say the least. And to be completely honest the ingenuity people used in what was supposed to be a simple block game is actually terrifying. TL;DR this was just the tip of the TNT cannon iceberg and the people who developed those other insane cannons should work at NASA
As someone with a friend who interned at NASA, they most likely already do lmfao I'd say you'd be surprised how many gamer nerds there are at NASA but... they're rocket scientists who make a living literally making this shit IRL of course they'll do it in the funny block game for fun.
I recall years ago having "missile wars" as a pre-made map that a lot of CZcamsrs tried out. The concept of a missile in Minecraft redstone is hardly novel but the use of observer blocks has made them a lot easier to implement.
I had all the original handbooks, but then my little brother took them to school and lost all except the Building one. I'm still salty about it to this day (I WANT MY FUCKING MINECRAFT BOOKS).
there were more devastating cannons around 2016 though, maybe even earlier, I remember one that shot like a machinegun, like a contraption that vomits tnt, that was very cool
What’s cool is that it’s also possible to counter this missile with a curtain of exploding tnt launched by a cannon to explode it from a safe distance. Although it’s a lot more costly than the missile because it requires a lot of cannons to guarantee a hit. Edit: I wanted to add that a tnt countermeasure is, like, the least optimal way of countering it, but I’m willing to bet my left nut that it’s the coolest way.
Damn, this evolution of weapons in Minecraft is really cool. When i'm building a fortress on servers, I still, after all this years think:"Okay, I'm sure this 3 blocks thick walls should survive 1 tnt cannon shot" - even when this FREAKING NUCLEAR PISTON WARHEAD, THAT WITH 1 SHOT COULD DESTROY HALF OF THE FORTRESS already kinda popular. Damn, my "war-strategy" is kinda old.
Thats the reason i build in unaproachable environments. Fallout Shelter in the side of a cliff? Done Underground tunnel gets below the sea to the actual base? Done Rainforest mountain in U form with lots of bamboo on the front? Done in the back Tunnel system and chambers like a dwarf? Done. Easy to defend in personal, hard to blow up.

I was a cannoner for my factions in the 1.6-1.9 era, and we had tech you wouldn't believe. Yeah slime blocks and observers changed the game, but nothing will ever replace the raw power, beauty, and complexity of even a 100 stacking .4s auto nuke. You build one of those, or better yet a 255 nuke auto, at 30 chunks out from a 300 wall sky base and set it up, and then just let it rip. Whoever you were raiding would have like 10 minutes to notice the attack, get members online, gear up, and either counter cannon or cregg your cannon in a direct attack before it broke through the walls. And then on top of that if the raid wasn't going well, you would self destruct your cannon so rival alliances of faction couldn't steal your cannon tech designs, like anti cobweb when that came out, reverse nuke, left/right shooters, or midair stackers. So much nostalgia. Hate that EULA shut down all the good factions servers, and I never even paid for stuff I just loved playing it even against players who paid ridiculous amounts of money for kits and spawners. Bet I could still make a 100 stack auto pseudo-nuke if I tried.
Imagine you’re just some Vindicator who’s returning back to your beautiful Woodland Mansion home after a beautiful raid, and you found a gigantic hole on the side of your mansion.
I remember loving the T.N.T Minecarts cause they're much much powerful than T.N.T blocks.. the higher the altitude you drop them from, stronger the explosion become
You should see the kinds of tnt cannons made on servers like Minecraft Airship Pirates. On those servers people have figured out how to build variable arc tnt cannons that fit into a 7x7x5 cube that fires 32 tnt (the maximum allowed under server rules) 400 blocks and with some very fancy methods of maximising damage
And the latest one is the orbital strike canon by cubicmetre, capable of hitting any coordinate in a world with a blast from build height to bedrock. I recommend checking it out on his channel.
I remember my first tnt trap in 2013, digging underground into my friend house, put a lot of tnt, put some basic redstone stuff to make a path and destroying all his house
I was half expecting the newer ones to be less practical, but this is actually quite astonishing. It's like real weapon research & development, from the first gunpowder cannons to modern artillery, really amazing.
With some physics mods, you can launch TNT minecarts from rails on ballistic trajectories. There is no upper limit on velocity. Yes, my friends and I built railguns to shell each other with from thousands of blocks away.
Bruuuuuh, I remember making those old fashioned tnt cannons back in the day in my friends faction server! It was the only way that two factions could really fight one another, as base protections prevented traditional raiding.
"Before repeaters" aaaargh that hits me right in the feels cause I'm officially OLD. @@eps200 Shoutout to all you other oldschoolers who played in the Beta Age.
2022 reminds me of when Space Engineers was still early access and weapons hadn't been invented yet, so people built their own torpedoes with custom-shaped warheads to deal varying damage to enemy ships, but only _after_ accelerating toward them and releasing the payload. With how far Space Engineers has come, I wonder what it would be like to recreate them with modern technology 🤔 More to the point, why am I asking this under a Minecraft video?
And now we have tnt cannons that can send a tnt projectile anywhere in the world in a single game tick. Add that projectile digging a hole until bedrock and you can see how between 2022 and 2023 the progress has been huge.
Fun fact: The reason tnt minecarts seem so much more powerful is because they perfectly stack by default just by placing more down on a single rail. Normal TNT when ignited is smaller than a single block so just using a lot of dispensers will leave slightly offset tnt. This however can be corrected by pushing the tnt into a single spot after igniting it which can be done with water and pistons (it needs to be corrected on both the X and Y axis or else it remains off by a few pixels). This can be seen often in stab cannons in wargears and it is used in Cubicmetre's Orbital strike cannon.
Back in Beta I had this massive TNT cannon I called the Macross Cannon that could launch 3 blocks of TNT over 500 blocks away with block on block accuracy. Also had a pirate ship with compact TNT cannons. One thing few remember is that water used to push lit TNT and compress it into a single block size, so it would all detonate at once with massive potential. So by dumping more and more lit TNT into a single trough, you could get insane ranges. Modern TNT cannons, where the TNT is not compressed by water, are not nearly as powerful.
Yeah, we just need that because that one is very popular. And also the weaponize TNT is now increasing in development. TNT cannon -> TNT canon with increased distance -> Missile TNT
They all do still have uses and shine the best in certain ways. You could set up the first cannon in a nice position to shoot over a wall or at a tower where a player may be inside of. Much easier to set up and practical. Second you could "snipe" players or builds and certain fortifications, time it with some buddies and you could raid someone who's probably protected by walls with arrows. Takes a while to set up but worth it for the aim. Second is basically a bunker destroyer, where the enemy is dealing with it, you could set up another at a different area or use it as a distraction. Which it's pretty much ideal for a distraction

The only one I think is familiar is the first tnt cannon you showed me. But I also blew myself up in 2013, which counts as a canon. A creative person canon.
Btw, I don't know if anybody made that gun, but still, I know the canon design with allows you to fire tnt with practically any speed, and any direction
The best part...those nukes are incredibly useful for castle sieges, they can't stop the nuke unless, they leave the safety of their walls and break the firing method, and that leaves them open to full auto arrow launchers!
Imagine you just chilling in your base and someone in chat writes "TACTICAL NUKE INCOMING" and you look up and see this slowly moving towards your base
this is remarkably similar to how heavy weapons have evolved throughout the past couple hundred years, from early cannons lobbing projectiles, to high velocity guns, to cruise missiles
Meanwhile in 2023: Orbital Strike Cannon, can be placed at any part of the world and delivers mass destruction at any coordinate with extreme presicion.
Missing the 2010 version where you had to trigger the two sets of tnt manualy because we didn't have repeater blocks or pistons All redstone was done with dust and torches.
You skipped there an insane amount of progression. I used to be very active in the tnt community and around 2014-2016 we had really intrigued and complex cannons.

Let's pay honorable mention to contraption that can strike anywhere with tens of tnt and one block precision to create massive vertical holes
Alexa Real, you are forbidden to die >:3
We can all agree that Alexa Real videos are never disappointing
i am disappointed, to see the last one stolen.
@@xcorrelation @JajejalsPly is the owner of these TNT technology
@@agentsalvasa5948 Ik lol
Minecraft's military technology went from Thirty Years War to Napoleonic Wars to Cold War in the span of only 10 years
I remember playing the Project Ares Minecraft server all the time and building so many of those first obsidian cannons, whether it was any good didn’t really matter with how cool it was to make these artillery railgun sort of contraptions
Mission complete: Succesfully has gave me full nostalgia
mission complete: i saw this comment
Dude, Alexa's content is always fresh as hell. I never feel like his stuff his getting repetitive. 😀👍
Its almost like they steal a bunch of other creators content ideas and don’t give them any credit
@@randompersonoftheinternet8012 it's almost like it's a video game not private property and not all viewers religiously follow all minecraft sphere youtubers thus meaning that the "content" (ideas) can neither be stolen nor would they be redunant due to viewer bubbles
@@gwrqet5352 theres copyright and trademark laws for a reason: people dont like their shit stolen for someone else’s benefit
@@randompersonoftheinternet8012 The day a tnt cannon is trademarked the world will fall
@@randompersonoftheinternet8012 the new tnt cannon was literally uploaded like this week and already stolen by a bunch of channels like this one
God I remember devving cannons in the great board wars for /k/. While the designs I had were actually very, very useful and could launch tnt at a range of hundreds of blocks away and were small enough to hide anywhere, they couldn't be used because the management were utterly fucking terrible and /k/ was wiped out by /ck/ of all fucking things. Ended up defecting being the only person that survived that encounter. I dunno what it was about the cooking anons, but they could fucking fight.
We’ve easily had flying tnt rockets for at least 5 years. I can remember watching videos about them in highschool
Oh yeah and can we just appreciate all the hard work he does for us to just watch it
You just want a lot of likes that's why ur saying this
Dude their videos are literally not that hard to make, its all just the same format
@@JossOwX yeah I guess
@@JossOwX but they are hard to pump out that often
@@JustAnotherCZcamsCommenter not really, it's probably like an hour or two out of every day at max. The real hard part is probably video ideas. So long as you have those it's relatively simple to pump out a few 1 minute Minecraft videos every day.
FIRST AND I LOVE YOUR VIDS KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK
Bruh so?
@@Av8er237 I looked everywhere I looked in all my files I looked under my bed which was a bad idea I looked through my fridge and I still couldn't find where I asked for your opinion
@@maddiesmemes2643 I mean first
it’s not good work. It’s plagiarism
Bro the nostalgia is on another level in this. I remember I used to make those 2012 tnt cannons all the time
The only one I think is familiar is the first tnt cannon you showed me. But I also blew myself up in 2013, which counts as a canon. A creative person canon.
Btw, I don't know if anybody made that gun, but still, I know the canon design with allows you to fire tnt with practically any speed, and any direction

OMG, the TNT weapon from 2012 is so nostalgic, I'm going back to my chilhood lol.
I remember making the 2012 design on pocket edition before redstone was added so I'd have to manually light each TNT
2012: manual artillery

The invention of tnt minecart traps has been one of my favorite additions to Minecraft
From an explosive catapult, to a cannon and to a missile.
Watching the 2012 tnt cannon was a BLAST to the past. I fondly remember making that and failing LMAO.
2023 saw people making smart weapons that can instantly nuke whole areas anywhere in the world
This man found a rare as hell woodland mansion just to blow a huge hole in it
I still remember Mumbo Jumbo making a Nuke in vanilla Minecraft; that thing *OBLITERATED* that fortified water-loo.
The best part...those nukes are incredibly useful for castle sieges, they can't stop the nuke unless, they leave the safety of their walls and break the firing method, and that leaves them open to full auto arrow launchers!
Dude a huge wave of nostalgia went over me when I saw the og tnt launcher
Imagine you just chilling in your base and someone in chat writes "TACTICAL NUKE INCOMING" and you look up and see this slowly moving towards your base
"War has changed..." - Solid Snake
That 2012 tnt cannon is imperfect. You should add another repeater at 2 ticks if I remember correctly.
Feels like I gotta mention Mumbo Jumbo's missiles, and his tnt sniper cannon.
We've come really far since the early days.
Now: Remote tnt strike on any position base on lazy chunk loading to tp tnt instantly.
2012: _"Warning! You are in range of enemy artillery!"_
Present-day: _"STRATEGIC LAUNCH DETECTED!"_
"I have become death, the destroyer of worlds."
this is remarkably similar to how heavy weapons have evolved throughout the past couple hundred years, from early cannons lobbing projectiles, to high velocity guns, to cruise missiles
Meanwhile in 2023: Orbital Strike Cannon, can be placed at any part of the world and delivers mass destruction at any coordinate with extreme presicion.
Weapons displayed.
2012: TNT Cannon.
2016: TNT Mortar.
2022: TNT Warhead.
Missing the 2010 version where you had to trigger the two sets of tnt manualy because we didn't have repeater blocks or pistons
All redstone was done with dust and torches.
You skipped there an insane amount of progression. I used to be very active in the tnt community and around 2014-2016 we had really intrigued and complex cannons.
I remember making the TNT spamming cannon to obliterate villages. Granted 1 out of 3 times I built one it instantly exploded but those were good times
damn i remember the time i made my first tnt cannon back on 2017 and now im learning more about redstone when it comes to weapons and now im currently making a bomber plane where the bombs are tnt minecart ( 18 bombs )
Just like real life, we've transitioned from cannons to missiles.
Pro tip :- If you want to stop any zombie from despawning but you don't have any nametag, you can give zombie anything which he can put in his hand like any one block, any tool, etc things in Minecraft
