Talk:Java Edition Combat Test 8b

what happened to combat test 8
Combat Test 7 was also a private test version, nonetheless its file is archived, and it has its own page. Combat Test 8 is the same case, right? but why it doesn't have its own page? Is it because there is really no archived file of it? Is nothing about it known? Luotiansha (talk)
 * Combat test 8 is being withheld from being archived until a new combat test version is released. This is because there's a feature in 8 that gives players on that version an advantage because it is also compatible with versions 8b and 8c, where the feature was removed. So the few people who have 8 are keeping it for now so there's no unfair disadvantage when playing pvp together. Source: my friend is the person who was given it.
