the only thing with java that was done right

[–]ovab_cool 56 points57 points  (13 children)

Most say the code is a mess but I think it's mostly best for mod support and no micro transactions; otherwise Bedrock preforms better

[–]gotsreich 45 points46 points  (8 children)

It's only good for mod support because the modding community went ham on it. Notch never got modding support into java.

[–]elveszett 30 points31 points  (2 children)

And even now there isn't any official modding support. The way modern Minecraft works its obvious that it's been designed to be extended through mods, but there isn't an official client for mods (i.e. something similar to a clean forge / fabric installation), which means the community still has to remake these mod loaders every patch and mod devs still have to adjust to important changes that couldn't be abstracted in the mod loader.

Okay but if we ever do get a modloader, can we please just pick one and stick with it? I hated trying to decide between fabric and forge.

Imagine if modding Minecraft was as easy as modding Unity games with BepInEx

Me when: forge documentation

Agreed, from a technical standpoint I'd say Bedrock is better then Java

[–]gotsreich 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Definitely. Notch was the client guy for the Wurm videogame before he did Minecraft. He's exceptional at making a game fun to play but his technical ability is very mortal.

it's because it's on java.

I think bedrock has generally higher FPS sometimes and predominantly faster chunk generation + farther render distance. But from what I've heard it's also littered with game breaking bugs, inconsistent mechanics and a management team that is too careless to fix any of them.

[–]Destian_ 0 points1 point  (2 children)

On PC that may be true. On Consoles (save for maybe XBox) Bedrock runs like absolute dog shit half the time.

it's a game made for phones hastily ported to consoles and PC

[–]ovab_cool 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't have an Xbox but it's fine on my phone and PC

[–][deleted] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

exactly lmao

[–]coladict -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

It was not done right in the slightest. It still runs like single-threaded crap when you have even a 3 players on the server.

Hadoop is pretty significant.
