"About time honestly" The new Minecraft Bedrock update finally fixes a common bug causing players to die during the load screen

Minecraft is a game that has managed to remain popular despite being more than 15 years old. The popularity of the blocky game cannot be questioned, but that does not mean that the title is devoid of flaws. There are many errors and bugs in the game, with some of them directly affecting the gameplay experience. Many of these bugs are seen in the Bedrock Edition of the game.

While Minecraft Bedrock Edition is a buggy mess, there was one bug that has probably affected everyone who played this version. While going through the Nether portal, players suddenly start taking damage even though the world has not loaded yet. When the loading finishes, the player will have lost all their loot. Thankfully, this situation has changed. A Reddit user, redditnice91200, shared an image showing that Mojang Studios has fixed this notorious bug.

"About time honestly"

The user also revealed how this was the only bug they had come across, adding that the first trip to the Nether dimension was always a worry on Minecraft Bedrock Edition.

Another user named AssistanceLegal7549 commented that every trip on the Bedrock Edition is a worry, owing to its buggy state. But that was not the only complaint. User DanTheMan827 commented about a bug where the End portal bugs out and teleports the player under the main island.

User ponyaqua pointed out that while this bug was reported in February 2019, Mojang Studios took more than five years to fix it. User FurnaceGolem jokingly commented that the technology to fix this bug was not available back then. Another user named IDiql taunted that the developers just needed a couple more billion dollars to fix it.

User ThatSmartIdiot wrote that nature is healing, referring to how the Bedrock Edition is finally getting bug-free. User emptimynd mentioned that Mojang Studios needs to get rid of all the death bugs from the game before they release the game's Hardcore mode. Another user, megakodex, said that while this bug fix is great, they still do not understand why the game loads the Nether first and then the player.

Bugs in Minecraft

Reddit user shared a Minecraft bug that causes their horse to spin (Image via Reddit/icenli/Mojang Studios)

The list of bugs in Minecraft is long, and sadly, the Bedrock Edition boasts of the most ones. Recently, a player shared a video showing their horse spinning non-stop. The player was confused, but the community pointed out that it was probably due to the horse standing on an azalea tree. According to the community, the tree has a bug that makes mobs spin while they are on top of it.

Mojang Studios needs to work harder on the Bedrock Edition owing to its large player base. While minor bugs and errors can be ignored, those like the Nether portal one can negatively affect the gameplay experience. Perhaps the 1.22 update will fix most of these bugs.
