The bedrock snowy biomes are really stunning. When I started my world in bedrock after a long break from bedrock, I was on a snowy mountain. The particle effects of snow coming off the trees and the fading to full white mesmerized me. I love playing in this world because of these differences. Now, they just need to give us a useful offhand - especially for mending items. Oh, and scaffolding only breaks instantly with an axe, but nothing else. These are the only 2 differences that bother me on a regular basis.

I really like that a lot of the bedrock features seem to be a bit more logical than java edition, like the salmon bones and the shovel in a boat. A lot of youtubers seem to talk about bedrock edition's minor changes in a negative way, but it's nice that good bedrock exclusive features are being highlighted here :)

As a Java player with a Bedrock child, having one video that walks through some of the major and minor differences between Java and Bedrock is really helpful. Thanks as always, Eyecraft!

finally someone is talking about good things in bedrock .

It's annoying how the version that does not have chunk borders visualized is the version with a bug that makes our poor villagers disappear if they cross the border at a bad time

Do not "afk" (stay in the same place without moving) too long in a snowy biome or it will start to look like a northern canadian winter... with 3 meters of snow everywhere...

When it comes to fire aspect, you can even use an actual fire aspect enchanted book as well to light candles ect. Just hit em with it like the sword.

I really do wish there was something similar to the F3 function in Bedrock . Thanx 4 the upload

My favorite difference is that axes are good in combat in java, it's fun having an axe and sword in your hotbar and switching to axe when you need to kill only one mob really fast

Still pretty new to Java edition and all my solo worlds are on bedrock...definitely some really good aspects in both editions...great video...thanks

I've been switching between Java and Bedrock a lot recently, but this video covered some differences that I didn't even know about. Like I had no idea that a flame aspect sword could be used like a flint and steel in bedrock. Idk if anyone else would find this useful or interesting, but I took the time to write out some of the major differences I've noticed since I'm in a unique position where I switch between platforms quite frequently. Java generally has more features, resources, and mods than bedrock, but there's a few things from bedrock that I miss in vanilla java. You covered the swamp biome mushrooms, salmon sizes, and snowy leaves. I think bedrock has a lot more little details in the various biomes, like the fallen logs that are covered in vines and the different sizes of grass. I think the rotation of the textures plays into that, but it does look ugly when the textures don't tile together seamlessly. I also think that the color blending looks nicer in vanilla bedrock compared to vanilla java. The blending of colors between different biomes is smoother. The world also picks up a lot of color from the sky during different weather conditions or different times of day. Of course, java has a lot of mods and shaders that can help bridge this gap, but it is nice to have it built into the game. Some of the crafting recipe discrepancies can be frustrating. Like the recipe for barrels is different and I always forget it in java because the bedrock recipe makes more sense to me (it uses slabs and sticks which seem to imitate the slats used irl). I also love being able to turn the cobwebs into 9 string in bedrock. They are so much more useful than the 1 string you get from breaking a cobweb in java. I'm not even going to start talking about trident killers, redstone behavior (especially redstone quasi-connectivity), villager breeding, iron golem farms, mob spawning, boats, and weapon strength. :P There's just so many little things that get weirder when you start learning more about how the game functions.

Boats in java required a shovel in the snapshots where the new boats were introduced. They also were steered using tank controls which I found to be much, much better than the current controls. Ultimately both of those changes were very unpopular so they were reverted before the full release.

Been binging your videos. I love how you can make a long 10 minute plus video that doesn’t feel like it has any filler content and is super informative, plus 1 sub here

Don’t forget speed bridging, it’s a pain on Java, but Java conduit are more op since you don’t need to be underwater to get the effect.

About f3 menu. Recently I tried Bedrock single player with no coordinates on. And I felt Minecraft differently! Each time I had to come up with a plan on how to find my base, I had to memorize the location, craft maps, and having a lodestone compass finały made sense. I definitely recommend trying this out. And know i consider f3 menu something of a cheat

Little editing problem around 3:26 to 3:30. Love your work going back to minecraft is a blast knowing all those tips and tricks edit: Minecraft needs a "mob" command button. Used for parrots perching and dogs attack/relax command

The leaves!!! I had no idea it did that! I want it in java so bad now!

"In fact in the bedrock edition a fire aspect sword is almost as good as flint and steel" Portals are also a thing I guess.

13:31 I wish parrots in both versions would have eggs and nests on top of the jungle tree. And od course great video ;)

The main difference between java and bedrock was you're not able swing sword on bedrock so that means you can only kill one mob at a time and it's annoying I hope one day they'll add that feature in bedrock

Great video, also one more difference is that in bedrock edition strays will drop wither skeleton skulls when blown up by a charged creeper

One of the main most helpful features from getting one place to another efficiently is speed bridging! Speed bridging is very different in both versions

Hello Eyecraft MC, great vid as always; I was having a lil trouble with the transitions as there wasn’t much of a pause in between them. I’m not sure if it was to make the video a decent watchable length; however, I find a slight pause, about 3 seconds is nice in between each topic. I’ve enjoyed your videos/livestreams for a while and have been immensely appreciative of your bedrock coverage; I don’t see many bedrock Minecraft channels that are good with successful content. Please keep up the great work. Thank you, SK gratefully signing out 🙂👍🏼🔥 (Also does the wither regenerate health in Java edition?)

really amazing video 🤩💜, but maybe adding labels indicating java and bedrock to make it simpler to watch 😅😊

I'm a bedrock player and find the number of differences between the platforms is so annoying!! Yes we do have some benefits (like trident killers for automatic mob farms) but they are a drop in the ocean compared to all the bonus features Java has. The worst issue by far are redstone circuits that work fine on one platform but not on the other. I was actually hoping that the 1.20 update would be the paraty update where they ho through and try to get things working the same on bother platforms 😭 Better luck next time

One of the biggest difference between Bedrock and Java, is the use of Cauldron and tipped arrows. As in Java, you need dragon's breath to craft tipped arrows, but in bedrock you can craft tipped arrows with cauldron containing the potion in it, which you can fill up with the potion bottles. This is very resource efficient as you don't have to collect dragon's breath to craft tipped arrows

Good stuff, thanks Eyecraft!

The snowey trees changing color is the best, need that in java

Question: Do parrots mimic 'baby' hostile mob noises in Java? Or is this a bug? I play bedrock and they always make baby zombie noises, as well as skeleton clanks and creeper hisses, except they're... high Pitched?

Forgot to mention in my comment that I prefer maps in Bedrock! The locator maps are awesome when traveling through the nether and also see everyone online in the map

I'm only just now starting to try Java after playing only bedrock for so so so long. And the games are the same but at the same time the features and the way they go about things is incredibly discombobulating. Its a situation like you know how things are done but now the rules have changed on how to do them, also controller support is a huge gripe for me, I tend to play with one because my desk is at such an awkward level that it gives me carpal tunnel if I play too long. Otherwise I only wanted to try Java for the modding capabilities

I play both very frequently and I like their differences. Sometimes I wish some features were available between them, but Ive learned to think with different approaches when Im playing with my console friends and java friends. Sometimes i get confused with the mechanics, specially the villagers, redstone, and drown in bedrock because I brought a door that won’t work! Haha. Loved your video! Didnt know about the buttons in the fences.

This video is beautiful! I enjoyed it ecstatically. Looking forward to more differences between java and bedrock Minecraft you find.!

Yes this is the video I was waiting for!!

I haven't played minecraft for 2 years, I've always played bedrock. Now I'm back in the game, playing on a cross-platform server that runs on Java. I miss all these things you said 😭

I remember, when boats in older MC versions didn't have a specific animation for swimming and you could use your hands while moving in boat a "hit" water with wooden shovel like I was rowing.

It's sort of under sold how great pistons on BE are. You can place a torch on a piston and it will invert when the piston is SOFT powered. No block does that on java. Also it's been declared a feature on the jira, not a 'bug we won't fix yet' like QC.

Started 10 years ago with Java but I stopped updating my computer, so when I got a PS4 years ago I began Bedrock. It was okay but I felt like I was being cheated with the better redstone workings in Java at first, but now it seems like there’s a lot that Java isn’t keeping up with in some regards compared to Bedrock.

Really glad you're making Minecraft videos, i really like the way you express yourself and have a calming voice. Don't stop these ;)

Do you have a list of video ideas in order? Because you never seem to run out of vids lol

I love your videos and I keep up with the great work

I really want the off hand java has tho, the nether roof, the sweeping edge

very epic :D, good job on the videos eye

I love your videos man! I play on bedrock, I noticed some of these differences but not all of em

Another difference is that sugar cane can be bone mealed. Leads to OP sugarcane farms

Banger Video as always !

Incredible differences But the thing that really makes me sad Is you cant build on the bedrock roof of the nether Villagers dont panic if they see a zombie And so many more annoying things bedrock does have and doesn't have Java is way better

As always, wonderful video! I play both Java and Bedrock.

U can get path blocks in java, apperently you forgot about enderman picking up blocks and dying giving u a chance to obtain what he held.

Thank you!

Bedrock seems to collect the more interesting and unique features, and is just better, especially since I don't really use redstone besides some basic doors and farms. If Java ran on a playstation I might try it, but by now it lacks so many bedrock features I don't think I could use it as my main game.

That´s a topic, I like 👍

1:02 The Fact That Only Marketplace People Have the Access To the F3 Menu Is really saying Something

if there’s one parity change i’d like to see, i want java to get the snowy leaves feature

5:00 In the 1.20 update now has plowed earth in the creative and it is possible to pick up with soft touch

Off topic on the main video, but listening to your voice is quite calming to me at least.

Honestly I would LOVE if the wither in bedrock was the same as the wither in jave It makes the wither fight much more challenging and will make like an ACTUAL boss fight rather than in java where you will be fighting in caves or in end dimension bedrock platform where you can literally kill wither extremely easily I really hope the wither becomes like an actual boss fight

16:20 Not only salmon, but squid and dolphins also have babies.

13:20 him saying "entirely humorous" in his monotone voice made my day

Do you have a video on how to hunt charged creepers and what they’re useful for?

You can place path blocks directly underneath blocks that have say a button or trapdoor on it when they've been silk touched. As long as the block touching the path isn't updated, it will stay a path block. You can even have a fence directly on top of a path block

I like bedrock and bedrock is the only version I play but I wish there was more then 3 capes :/ plus I only have one of them. I personally think it would be cool if completing achievements would give you a cape the cape is different depending on what the achievement is.

A fire aspect book on bedrock can light tnt and everything that the sword can

I’ve always wanted a hanging door like a gate but I didn’t have to set it on top of a block, it would only set on the side of a block

Last one is my favorite thing about bedrock. Specially if you use Jungle tree/sapplings. It's so pretty when snowing

I remember when u had 28k Now proud to be a old subscriber

The two most important things to me that Bedrock has Is renewable potions and custumizable 128x128 player skins. I wish these features came to Java without mods.

I play solely Bedrock because I play on my switch, it’s been years since I played Java edition so I wasn’t aware of some of these discrepancies, they’re quite interesting.

The scaffolding nerf was so sad. That was our most farmable fuel source by far

First! Eyecraftmc you're awesome!

One other difference I found is that the crimson and warped wood are not fireproof in bedrock. I tried using that wood for a hoglin farm, and placing lava on there set it on fire very easily. Funny that it's not fireproof but you still can't use it as fuel

I played both Java and Bedrock for a recognized length of time and after much consideration I decided that Bedrock offers a better gaming experience for myself. Nothing against Java.

The main thing I hate they removed in bedrock edition was the barrel recipe as well as the cobwebs to string recipe

Very enjoyable.

Is there a way to know what area of a map needs to be filled? I thought I filled out 9 maps but it didn't give me the achievement. (I can't tell what tiny area I missed just from looking at the maps)

6:41 we can also do it with the enchanting book of fire aspect

I play both versions and it is frustrating at times trying to remember what works on which version. I play both though because I started a world in bedrock on console after major surgery that I worked hard on and refuse to give it up

12:31 I think the dyeing mechanics is fixed as I tried dyeing with those items yesterday in bedrock but was not able to.

Im stuck on bedrock still, but its fine- its fun still. I love it, its what I've grown up woth by now dispite being all in for java, but i dont have a computer for that anymore

I remember when in bedrock i had to quit the world to show coordinates through the world settings.. and then get back in. so relieved I no longer have to do that

No matter what Mojang says, if all these things don't get implemented into both versions, True Parity will never be achieved. And I don't care about differences in the coding language - if they want parity, they have to make it as close as possible.

Bro Amazing video I hope I’ll be as good as you one day

3:18 does the bamboo mosaic boat include a shovel in bedrock too?

On the fire aspect thing. I’m pretty sure a fire aspect books does the same

I honestly want them to hurry up and bring full use of the of hand and nether roof building

In Java, you can offhand a bow and use a main hand sword with looting to have your bow benefit from looting.

in java you can summon a shulker with color if you use commad /summon shulker ~ ~ ~ {Color:1} and you can change the number for defferent colors

bedrock might be the future of minecraft, having more logical improvements and optimizations. it still lacks alot of functionality and polish compared to Java imo im fairly new to minecraft playing a year now really enjoy exploring, building towns and complicated redstone automations. try'd both versions first week and ended up going with bedrock as the new and improved version for 8-9 months but recently made a world in java and boy dit i regret not choosing java sooner it is just a more immersive experience imo. F3 is one thing.. ability to use different shaders is a massive bonus for performance improvements. i got a decent pc with a Ryzen 7 3700X, RTX 2070 and 16GB ram, can run java smoothly around almost 200 fps with beautiful shaders, yet bedrock, i tried so many settings and packs cant get it high and stable.. usually around 120 fps max dropping to 40-70 when facing alot of objects or walking in town.. not to mention better mob spawning(mob clusters are more fun and just so many aswell compared to bedrock wich is always so empty), better offhand item usage, so many little details missing in bedrock or thy just feel more bland. i hope thy get more parity from java to bedrock but for now im a Java player.

The side rotation adds a sense of realism to those blocks since seeing the same texture on them is very unsettling to a subconscious level. This is especially worse on glowstone.

I wish both versions were mechanically the same. I wonder if that'll ever happen.

6:03 What you wouldn't expect at all, is that you not only can ignite campfires, candles, TNT with a fire aspect sword, for some reason you can also do that with a fire aspect BOOK Literally, WHAT

its so hard for me to choose which version i prefer playing on. i’ve went back in forth between the two i like bedrock because i can easily play with friends on any platform, there are some really cool random features in the game that java just doesnt have but i think im going to switch back over to java because there are just some things that i enjoy too much about it, like being able to have the f3 menu, mods and add ons to the game are almost infinite and with bedrock, i strongly dislike the minecraft marketplace feature! its a good concept but a lot of the items in there are not worth spending irl currency on and also it feels very limited. i also enjoy being able to get many new features sooner on java, since usually java gets the newer features first. it definitely is a hard choice because although there is more i like about java i had played bedrock for a long time too and there are tons of good things to like about it

i wonder if not having an F3 menu in Bedrock is due to the consoles/devices that Bedrock is available on? afaik it's the version used for mobile devices, which might make it a very inconvenient addition for screens that may not have the space to comfortably display all that information (it's already a bit overwhelming & cluttered on PC in Java). do correct me if i'm wrong however, i just think it's an interesting consideration to be made for the wide array of devices the game's available on

16:25 Ibxtoycat Would be Proud Of Big Salmon

As someone who has tried multiple times and in different ways to show cords with f3 on my laptop with no results :') so yeah bedrocks cords option is way more helpful for me

I'm not sure about the rest of them, but I do know that you only need a fire aspect to light a campfire.

I think they need to take bedrock aesthetics and java technical elements and add them to each corresponding version

me and my friend once had a relatively large salmon in our fish farm lmao

yes FINALLY somebody talking about java and bedrock without dissing bedrock when they dont even know the difference

I think a good compromise is adding at least a stick to the boat recipe, because it is kinda really annoying having to craft a wooden shovel everytime you wanna craft a boat
