To be honest, sometimes if a game is not designed in a certain way, adding these "small" things can take hours of bug fixing. And a system of pausing the game generally isn't just telling the computer "Hey, pause this game, pretty please", specially if it was never the intention to have a pause feature in the first place.
Yeah, I agree that sometimes when users tell you to add things that are impossible or far out of the scope of the project is annoying, but 7 years is enough time to rework the game loop system to be able to pause.
@@KarmicID When you're in the first steps of creating a game, you need to be certain that you'll add a multiplayer, or keep it entirely singleplayer, or else you'll have A LOT OF WORK to do in the long run My thought is that they thought about the game being primarily multiplayer, hence why you can join a friend's game so easily, or having to connect to an account, buy things in game and etc. So on the thought process they maybe thought:"Why would we add a pause feature in a multiplayer game?" or "Why would we add now a pause feature in a multiplayer game?" Multiplayer games generally don't have any pausing, because it's annoying to code and useless in gameplay
I don't get HOW it only causes problems on Bedrock though. Java has had that same model of local server for the last ~12 years since 1.3.1 And we've never had these kinds of desync issues outside of poor internet to a server on another continent..

It's been even longer than that! Bedrock was based off the old Pocket edition, which released in 2012, and that also didn't have game pausing, so in reality, it took 12 YEARS for them to add pausing.

Legacy Console Edition (or LCE for short), already had it fully controlled, it didn't pause when in split screen offline, but did when you were alone. or maybe all the players in split screen had to "pause" to make the game stop?
@claudetheclaudeqc6600 If I remember correctly, yes, if all players paused, it did pause. But Bedrock edition is a completely different thing, mainly because it was designed to be compatible with phones. It probably works differently when it comes to local multiplayer, and even small differences here could make adding a pause to the menu a lot harder. Console version was console version, it even looked a bit differently. But technically, it was a different game in many aspects, closer to java than console's bedrock.
I've never fully understood why they needed a bedrock version (I know it's money, but what reason besides that) when they could've just did a 100% feature complete port of Java instead of wasting their time porting the fucking phone version to console. We probably wouldn't have this weird in-fighting if that were the case.
@pocketsizedweeb They simply exploited the lack of accesibility. You have to run their version of a game on a console, since you arent going to crack it that easily. And they added the modding tools necessary widely avadiable AFTER they made the marketplace a must for "addons" Remember the whole fiasco when Phoenix made his first vid on these modding tools for bedrock? The only reason they kept it under rugs is because marketplace wasnt finished yet. Corporate greed my man... Funny shit is that Bedrock is 5 times more easier to find pirated versions for since having a xbox account is all it takes to make it almost authentic with actual builds. I literally just asked my friend to make one for me off his own xbox and voila, free bedrock edition with no costs.
I'm not really a hater of bedrock edition but I wish they never added it in the first place. I don't mind bedrock edition but it's just that the legacy console editions are better
@@powerswordeJava is more universal than C++ (Which is heat bedrock edition is written in). Java can literally be ran anywhere, making it *easier* to port to other devices, especially android. Consoles may have problems due to licensing but other than that there is no reason for not using Java on modern consoles. Java is not the most efficient, which is why there was a console edition back in the day. Today you can take the performance drop and still run Java on consoles without noticing a drip in performance.
Wow, I can't believe minecraft bedrock added a feature that's been included in practically every game in the past decade, truly revolutionary! 🥳 Now time to wait for version parity lol ( I'm still baffled that natural regeneration from a full hunger bar is so slow on bedrock edition )
@@L_ightninng I know that java regen is perhaps a little too strong but on bedrock if you for example fall into lava even for a moment and you are using something like iron armor there's a high chance that you are going to die anyways. There were several moments when I was mining for ancient debris, lava appeared out of a wall, I blocked it off and still died since regen simply wasn't enough. I switched to the bed strat and it was kinda my fault for not having enough fire resistance potions but you can still sometimes die surprisingly quickly even on a lower difficulty
@@kovexplay The fast regen came with the combat update and bedrock got a weird frankenstein monster mix of features from it, except the best parts (freely using the offhand and sweeping edge). The shield isn't worth using in bedrock since there is a delay on when it actually blocks shit and you being required to sneak to activate it. Good luck trying to kill a skeleton when it can shoot at you, but you can't make ground. I can play hard on Java and die a couple of times, but trying to do that on bedrock is just frustrating with the post combat update AI with pre combat mechanics.
They sure took their sweet time, they pump out marketplace bundles 24/7 but we had to wait years for them to add a simple feature that almost every other game has day one. 🤦♂️
Now, the only thing that I think they could add is the saturation system, is so boring to need to wait in the corner of the caves walls to your heal up.
2:32 funny thing about this is Terraria actually has a very similar setting where you can toggle if the game pauses whrn you open your inventory, map, settings, etc. The toggle is insanely useful, say you're being horded by enemies and you need to open your inventory to get an item not in your hotbar, the entire game will freeze and you can take as much time as you need to get what items you want. Having the toggle off is also really useful since terraria revolves heavily around the day and night cycle, so time will pass normally when talking to npcs or using the map! Of course, i dont know if the same logic applies to minecraft but having a toggle is amazing!
Except Terraria has it for the inventory. Because you may or may not want to pause while you have it open. But if you press the PAUSE button, you want the game to be PAUSED.
Doesn't surprise me quite as much here because DST was designed to be multiplayer, first and foremost. If you wanted to play singleplayer Don't Starve, you'd just play Don't Starve. Why this has to be two separate games, I have no idea, but it makes sense to me that the multiplayer version of the game didn't have singleplayer specific features like that.
thats because Dont Starve Together is.... TOGETHER. The base game, Don't Starve, had pause functionality from the start. See how that works? No pause in multiplayer server based.... YES pause in single player. Astonishing
Why are we not talking about the profanity filter setting tho? Cause if disabling that really lets you say anything I'm gonna be quite happy, I've wanted to name my gear some dumb stuff that isn't even that bad to say but it gets blocked
@xenird I didn't realise it said windows for this setting, as a console player I cannot edit the files and if this setting only releases for Windows it's kinda dumb but oh well, it's at least a step in the right direction if that's the case I guess🤷♂️
I'm already used not to pause Minecraft on my PS4... I always dig a hole and cover it with dirt so i'm "safe". They actually need to fix the inmense lagg in your solo world for no reason.
That is the exact reason I stopped playing Bedrock. Once a world is old enough it gets Alzheimer and starts to lose track of stuff. I was playing on the Switch version and god is that version specifically trash.
@pocketsizedweeb The thing is it's so crazy that a random modder can change the game in 1 week of work and this multi-billionaire company can't make a good update in the whole year, they just add blocks that are already in the game but instead of being green, it's pink now. Damn.
@@NightCursedGearsofWar "but a modder can do it in a week!!" is genuinely the most ignorant criticism I've ever seen.

bedrock FINALLY GETS SOMETHING IT SHOULD'VE HAD FROM THE BEGINNING on old console edition minecraft, you COULD actually pause the game during offline games, and BEDROCK NEVER HAD THAT
I don’t understand why games don’t just check how many players are currently in a server, and if there’s only 1 player, it allows pausing. It’s so simple.
This is why Java will always be better. It had these features since launch and Bedrock will always be the bastardized version of Legacy Console Edition
If you count the first public release as the "launch" then nope, pause was added about a year later. Though since initially the game was Creative-only it wasn't essential.
@@trulybarr5341 they don't but considering they call it "minecraft" and not "minecraft bedrock edition" and how much they push it in marketing its clear they care more about bedrock than java mostly due to the marketplace
I remember having this issue lol. I was playing single player survival on hard and was exploring a big cave system, left to take a piss and came back to "You died!" xD
I can't wait to pause my game! Legitimately the best feature (for casual players/non modders) since it was removed. That and optional profanity filtering.
It's been even longer than that! Bedrock was based off the old Pocket edition, which released in 2012, and that also didn't have game pausing, so in reality, it took 12 YEARS for them to add pausing.
I feel like I could pause in old PE. Because when I went to play it on my phone after many years of not playing, I was in shock that I couldn't pause. I feel like that's something that I would remember. But I usually played on peaceful back then, so maybe I'm misremembering.
@GrzesiekJedenastka the multiplayer capabilities is incredible, you can host up to 40 people modless without a server. Also the redstone has a few great pros like placing redstone on transparent blocks like pistons and the tickrates are generally better. I am sure there are more but as a bedrock player with 12,000+ hours I have only encountered the no death glitch twice and never randomly died.
@@GrzesiekJedenastka the term "LAGVA" is enough to describe why bedrock is superior in its own ways. Lagva being lagva, is an unoptimized, laggy mess and it's nearly unplayable without perform mods.
For all of you who are confused that it didn't exist yet, it has quite a simple reason: There are no singleplayer worlds on Bedrock. You can invite 10 (with commads up to 40) friends from X-Box and play with them over the internet. It's basically a small free server, as long as there is a bot account online 24/7. It would be really weird for the game to freeze for all players, if the host decides to go into the 'pause' menu. Also, if the host is in the 'pause' menu and someone joins the world, they would just be stuck and unable to move. So I'm quite intrigued as to what happens in these two scenarios now that you can actually pause the game. Will the 'pause' menu stop pausing when another player joins while the host is actually pausing the game? Will they be stuck in place until the host decides to unpause the game?
I never really thought about the fact you couldn't pause the game until you mention it, I usually just hide in my house or dig a hole if I have to "pause" the game
no one actually understands how insane this is, at least like 5 times my controller batteries have died and i’ve been killed my something while i’ve been sprinting trying to find some AA batteries
It enrages me every time someone (including the devs) says that Bedrock can't be paused because it's running a local sever, because JAVA DOES THAT TOO. And has for a long time.
7 years is crazy, it's even more time than the amount of time it took game freak to bring mega evos back to pokemon (i think it was like 5 or 6 years im not sure)
So glad that they've done this because I hate having to pause the game and then a creeper or somebody still blows me up. You can't go AFK you either have to leave the world or whatever don't try and pause and think that would work
Less than 5 seconds into the video we got the REAL news. We can now say 8 melons in the Minecraft chat! No more billionaires telling me how to talk in my LAN world! I'm actually somewhat hopeful for the state of the game now. It seems like they almost kinda somewhat care again.
I quit bedrock a decent while ago because I lost so much because of the absence of this pause feature, and I think I speak on behalf of everyone else with similar experience when I say that, Finally, Bedrock is worth playing again.
I felt cheated when I found out. I paused the game and was like "why is the music still playing?" And then I cow walked into the frame and I lost all hope in bedrock.
@@noname-jt6kl Why is the lack of offhand such a deal breaker for so many people? It's such a miniscule feature and it'll probably never be added because it's so hard to get to work on all the platforms Bedrock is on, without sacrificing what is arguably the main feature of the game that separates it from Java: multi-platform crossplay.
This was a HUGE issue in the loading screen. Like i remember quitting the game with full health, full bubbles with full prot 4 armor and respiration while being in water, then next time i open the world the game loads and ive already respawned
@@dankali735true most players probably are on bedrock, but what this person means by the main version might be instead referring to how many bugs the version has compared to java, which i think many players would agree on
I used to play legacy,where the game pauses. Once I switched to bedrock, It wasnt until I saw my Friends moving that I realized: *The pause menu doesnt pause the game*
Bedrock is why I switched to peaceful mode and lost the ability to play on any sort of difficulty. Can't tell you how many tines on mobile ID put the game down and come back to being dead and all my items gone.

@claudetheclaudeqc6600 If I remember correctly, yes, if all players paused, it did pause.
But Bedrock edition is a completely different thing, mainly because it was designed to be compatible with phones. It probably works differently when it comes to local multiplayer, and even small differences here could make adding a pause to the menu a lot harder.
Console version was console version, it even looked a bit differently. But technically, it was a different game in many aspects, closer to java than console's bedrock.
this has been happening for longer than 7 years. I remember not being able to pause as a wee lad on my xbox and it triggered me so hard
apple users when they finally get something android users have been using for 7 years
I like the joke that Bedrock is supposed to be the "main version"!
Such a funny joke they've been pulling off since 2016! 😂
I've never fully understood why they needed a bedrock version (I know it's money, but what reason besides that) when they could've just did a 100% feature complete port of Java instead of wasting their time porting the fucking phone version to console. We probably wouldn't have this weird in-fighting if that were the case.
@pocketsizedweeb They simply exploited the lack of accesibility.
You have to run their version of a game on a console, since you arent going to crack it that easily.
And they added the modding tools necessary widely avadiable AFTER they made the marketplace a must for "addons"
Remember the whole fiasco when Phoenix made his first vid on these modding tools for bedrock? The only reason they kept it under rugs is because marketplace wasnt finished yet.
Corporate greed my man...
Funny shit is that Bedrock is 5 times more easier to find pirated versions for since having a xbox account is all it takes to make it almost authentic with actual builds. I literally just asked my friend to make one for me off his own xbox and voila, free bedrock edition with no costs.
I'm not really a hater of bedrock edition but I wish they never added it in the first place. I don't mind bedrock edition but it's just that the legacy console editions are better
@@powersworde java and javascript are wildly different languages.
@@powerswordeJava is more universal than C++ (Which is heat bedrock edition is written in). Java can literally be ran anywhere, making it *easier* to port to other devices, especially android. Consoles may have problems due to licensing but other than that there is no reason for not using Java on modern consoles.
Java is not the most efficient, which is why there was a console edition back in the day. Today you can take the performance drop and still run Java on consoles without noticing a drip in performance.
Literally 30 mins ago I died in hardcore because I got a call.
Wow, I can't believe minecraft bedrock added a feature that's been included in practically every game in the past decade, truly revolutionary! 🥳
Now time to wait for version parity lol ( I'm still baffled that natural regeneration from a full hunger bar is so slow on bedrock edition )
One decade would go back to 2014, but it's more like 2-3 decades of pausing being a basic feature in video games.
@olasdorosdiliusimilius2174 yeah, I'm assuming it started to become a staple even earlier but I just have no data to check when that happened
Slow Regen makes sense, with the fast Regen there's 0 reason to be using health potions or Regen potions basically
@@L_ightninng I know that java regen is perhaps a little too strong but on bedrock if you for example fall into lava even for a moment and you are using something like iron armor there's a high chance that you are going to die anyways. There were several moments when I was mining for ancient debris, lava appeared out of a wall, I blocked it off and still died since regen simply wasn't enough. I switched to the bed strat and it was kinda my fault for not having enough fire resistance potions but you can still sometimes die surprisingly quickly even on a lower difficulty
@@kovexplay The fast regen came with the combat update and bedrock got a weird frankenstein monster mix of features from it, except the best parts (freely using the offhand and sweeping edge). The shield isn't worth using in bedrock since there is a delay on when it actually blocks shit and you being required to sneak to activate it. Good luck trying to kill a skeleton when it can shoot at you, but you can't make ground.
I can play hard on Java and die a couple of times, but trying to do that on bedrock is just frustrating with the post combat update AI with pre combat mechanics.
You could say they "paused" development of the pause button for 7 years (I don't know there's probably a better joke you could make out of this)
Pauseibly yes
The pausabilities are endless
The fact that they took so long to give us pause, gives me pause.
They sure took their sweet time, they pump out marketplace bundles 24/7 but we had to wait years for them to add a simple feature that almost every other game has day one. 🤦♂️
0:59 I thought I was getting a phone call
Cool
Now, the only thing that I think they could add is the saturation system, is so boring to need to wait in the corner of the caves walls to your heal up.
2:32 funny thing about this is Terraria actually has a very similar setting where you can toggle if the game pauses whrn you open your inventory, map, settings, etc.
The toggle is insanely useful, say you're being horded by enemies and you need to open your inventory to get an item not in your hotbar, the entire game will freeze and you can take as much time as you need to get what items you want. Having the toggle off is also really useful since terraria revolves heavily around the day and night cycle, so time will pass normally when talking to npcs or using the map!
Of course, i dont know if the same logic applies to minecraft but having a toggle is amazing!
Except Terraria has it for the inventory. Because you may or may not want to pause while you have it open.
But if you press the PAUSE button, you want the game to be PAUSED.
1:52 dont worry, we have in worse in egypt, if i am not in a certain area i cant open steam
It took Don’t Starve Together about as long, too. You’re not alone!
yeah but at least that one was designed to be only multiplayer from the beginning whereas bedrock was supposed to be both singleplayer and multiplayer
I played dont starve together for the first time recently and it has so many more issues to worry about.
Doesn't surprise me quite as much here because DST was designed to be multiplayer, first and foremost.
If you wanted to play singleplayer Don't Starve, you'd just play Don't Starve.
Why this has to be two separate games, I have no idea, but it makes sense to me that the multiplayer version of the game didn't have singleplayer specific features like that.
@@Benefard the "sequel"/multiplayer version of Don't Starve
thats because Dont Starve Together is.... TOGETHER. The base game, Don't Starve, had pause functionality from the start. See how that works? No pause in multiplayer server based.... YES pause in single player. Astonishing

Why are we not talking about the profanity filter setting tho? Cause if disabling that really lets you say anything I'm gonna be quite happy, I've wanted to name my gear some dumb stuff that isn't even that bad to say but it gets blocked
There's like a text file with blocked words, if you empty it you will unlock those words
@xenird I didn't realise it said windows for this setting, as a console player I cannot edit the files and if this setting only releases for Windows it's kinda dumb but oh well, it's at least a step in the right direction if that's the case I guess🤷♂️
I'm already used not to pause Minecraft on my PS4... I always dig a hole and cover it with dirt so i'm "safe".
They actually need to fix the inmense lagg in your solo world for no reason.
That is the exact reason I stopped playing Bedrock. Once a world is old enough it gets Alzheimer and starts to lose track of stuff. I was playing on the Switch version and god is that version specifically trash.
@pocketsizedweeb The thing is it's so crazy that a random modder can change the game in 1 week of work and this multi-billionaire company can't make a good update in the whole year, they just add blocks that are already in the game but instead of being green, it's pink now. Damn.
@@NightCursedGearsofWar "but a modder can do it in a week!!" is genuinely the most ignorant criticism I've ever seen. Game development, even ones for some of the less major titles, is vastly and utterly different when compared to modding. Especially for the best-selling game of all time. And while working under one of the biggest corporate entities of all time?
@@pocketsizedweeb saying that bedrock is bad because it runs bad on a device that has a third of the power of a modern smartphone while comparing it to java on a computer is the most ignorant thing I've heard.
@@SmitePlayz1 wasn't bedrock made to run on smartphones? if the switch can run something like breath of the wild, why can't it run something easy like minecraft?
0:54 I thought someone was calling me on Discord 🤣
bedrock FINALLY GETS SOMETHING IT SHOULD'VE HAD FROM THE BEGINNING
on old console edition minecraft, you COULD actually pause the game during offline games, and BEDROCK NEVER HAD THAT
I don’t understand why games don’t just check how many players are currently in a server, and if there’s only 1 player, it allows pausing. It’s so simple.
1:12 Bro's items didn't despawn after 10 minutes woow
I’m not sure if dead bodies load chunks
@JadenAizen they are loaded because he didnt use respawn button
@@Sadkmol08 I meant are they still loaded when he’s not spawned in
This is why Java will always be better. It had these features since launch and Bedrock will always be the bastardized version of Legacy Console Edition
Java will always be better in almost every single way. I can’t even get over the UI on bedrock, it looks like it was designed for 4 year olds
@@prodbpbecause it is?
@@prodbp boy do i have news
If you count the first public release as the "launch" then nope, pause was added about a year later. Though since initially the game was Creative-only it wasn't essential.
Love how the “best” version of Minecraft (according to mojang) just got a pause feature after so long lol, Java’s has it since like day 1
When did they say it was the best version?
Mojang is kidding themselves lol, javs is so much better
To be fair, it's more like day 266 (counting from the public Classic release).
@@trulybarr5341 they don't but considering they call it "minecraft" and not "minecraft bedrock edition" and how much they push it in marketing its clear they care more about bedrock than java mostly due to the marketplace
@@davidmolin8944 that’s because it makes them more money lol
"Player can now pause the game" sounds like a patch log from an indie game that's been in development for 2 weeks
Yea, or about first versions of Minecraft.

Legitimately the best feature (for casual players/non modders) since it was removed.
That and optional profanity filtering.
It's been even longer than that! Bedrock was based off the old Pocket edition, which released in 2012, and that also didn't have game pausing, so in reality, it took 12 YEARS for them to add pausing.
I've heard old versions of MCPE *did* have pausing.
I feel like I could pause in old PE. Because when I went to play it on my phone after many years of not playing, I was in shock that I couldn't pause. I feel like that's something that I would remember. But I usually played on peaceful back then, so maybe I'm misremembering.
@@BinToss._. i've had MCPE since 0.5.0 and I specifically remember it not having pausing.
@@BinToss._. They did not.
@@slendersera You are misremembering.
Bedrock has a lot of benefits to it. It is a shame it is underdeveloped.
shame they dont work on its issues, yet keep saying it is the "intended" game version. lol.
Are there really benefits? I can only see flaws.
@GrzesiekJedenastka the multiplayer capabilities is incredible, you can host up to 40 people modless without a server. Also the redstone has a few great pros like placing redstone on transparent blocks like pistons and the tickrates are generally better. I am sure there are more but as a bedrock player with 12,000+ hours I have only encountered the no death glitch twice and never randomly died.
@@Rovalowythey never said it, are you hallucinating?
@@GrzesiekJedenastka the term "LAGVA" is enough to describe why bedrock is superior in its own ways. Lagva being lagva, is an unoptimized, laggy mess and it's nearly unplayable without perform mods.
For all of you who are confused that it didn't exist yet, it has quite a simple reason:
There are no singleplayer worlds on Bedrock. You can invite 10 (with commads up to 40) friends from X-Box and play with them over the internet. It's basically a small free server, as long as there is a bot account online 24/7. It would be really weird for the game to freeze for all players, if the host decides to go into the 'pause' menu. Also, if the host is in the 'pause' menu and someone joins the world, they would just be stuck and unable to move.
So I'm quite intrigued as to what happens in these two scenarios now that you can actually pause the game. Will the 'pause' menu stop pausing when another player joins while the host is actually pausing the game? Will they be stuck in place until the host decides to unpause the game?
0:38 yeah java has also done this since 1.3 its not an unsolvable issue
Now they need to allow you to disable autosave and quit without saving
I never really thought about the fact you couldn't pause the game until you mention it, I usually just hide in my house or dig a hole if I have to "pause" the game
We got Bedrock pausing before GTA 6
no one actually understands how insane this is, at least like 5 times my controller batteries have died and i’ve been killed my something while i’ve been sprinting trying to find some AA batteries

Yes

Wut? I

@@REDSTONENOOB. yes
@@REDSTONENOOB. yes its a very beautiful masterpiece
It enrages me every time someone (including the devs) says that Bedrock can't be paused because it's running a local sever, because JAVA DOES THAT TOO. And has for a long time.
They should make it so when a creeper blows up you get ALL THE BLOCKS TO FILL THE HOLE.
There's probably a datapack for that

7 years is crazy, it's even more time than the amount of time it took game freak to bring mega evos back to pokemon (i think it was like 5 or 6 years im not sure)
3:06
*Dio screaming in the corner*
“Better late than never” ahh fix
So now when my mom tells me to "pause the game", I have no excuse in not doing so 😔
So glad that they've done this because I hate having to pause the game and then a creeper or somebody still blows me up. You can't go AFK you either have to leave the world or whatever don't try and pause and think that would work
Less than 5 seconds into the video we got the REAL news. We can now say 8 melons in the Minecraft chat! No more billionaires telling me how to talk in my LAN world! I'm actually somewhat hopeful for the state of the game now. It seems like they almost kinda somewhat care again.
That's a weird ban. Lots of theories but the Reddit thread I found couldn't really figure it out, besides 8 looking like breasts.
Well, the reason for that is because they also made char profanity filter a toggle too
3:12 so what happens with this on multiplayer worlds?
It doesn't pause, like java
If its on multiplayer i dont think it does anything
Hmm I wonder what happens with this on multiplayer worlds 🤔🤔🤔 I can’t fathom what happens with this on multiplayer worlds.
Idk about you guys, but i really want to know more about the creepy timing of the phone call
I love that you actually did get a call as you were demonstrating😂
"Days played:Too many to count" LOL
This is 3 minutes and 41 seconds of Phoenix expressing "it's about TIME."
I quit bedrock a decent while ago because I lost so much because of the absence of this pause feature, and I think I speak on behalf of everyone else with similar experience when I say that,
Finally, Bedrock is worth playing again.
I felt cheated when I found out. I paused the game and was like "why is the music still playing?" And then I cow walked into the frame and I lost all hope in bedrock.
No it's still not worth it. When they add an offhand, then I'll consider it
Lol
@@jwalster9412It's only on preview/beta
@@noname-jt6kl Why is the lack of offhand such a deal breaker for so many people? It's such a miniscule feature and it'll probably never be added because it's so hard to get to work on all the platforms Bedrock is on, without sacrificing what is arguably the main feature of the game that separates it from Java: multi-platform crossplay.
Finally no more dying at dinner times
I do have feedback: I still won't play Bedrock. But it's a nice thing that they finally thought to add pausing to their game
😂
This was a HUGE issue in the loading screen. Like i remember quitting the game with full health, full bubbles with full prot 4 armor and respiration while being in water, then next time i open the world the game loads and ive already respawned
I think they patched it before Bundles of Bravery - it was a big issue when switching dimensions.
1:20 he says as he doesn’t have enough dirt to fill in the creeper hole
Every time I think I know how bad Bedrock is I learn something new like THEY COULDNT PAUSE THE GAME THIS WHOLE TIME.
its been 10 years since that wasn't made
btw bro suddenly rap about the update for a few seconds 1:36
Bedrock being out for 7 years is honestly more shocking
Microsoft says bedrock is the main version, most of the community would beg to differ
Most of the community is on bedrock. The most loud part of the community beg to differ.
@@dankali735true most players probably are on bedrock, but what this person means by the main version might be instead referring to how many bugs the version has compared to java, which i think many players would agree on

7 years reminds me of some cube jumping around..
I'm genuinely baffled why they left an option to disable game pausing. Why the heck would anyone ever want that?
AFK farms.
@ you can just leave your inventory open to keep the game running while tabbed off it.

their finally making bedrock slightly less shit
They also made profanity filter a toggle too
Hopefully they can also teach you the difference between “their” and “they’re”.
Damn now i can say i was playing minecraft before we could pause the game
I used to play legacy,where the game pauses. Once I switched to bedrock, It wasnt until I saw my Friends moving that I realized:
*The pause menu doesnt pause the game*
On Java, if you're playing multiplayer. The game only pauses you, not other people or even mobs.
why would it pause your friends? are your friends ai?
yeah wait how would that even work
Bedrock is why I switched to peaceful mode and lost the ability to play on any sort of difficulty. Can't tell you how many tines on mobile ID put the game down and come back to being dead and all my items gone.
I am so happy it's here.
I swear, I almost wanted to alt+tab to Discord when the call noise played XD
finally I no longer need to entomb myself alive any time I have to go AFK in bedrock
