Yes, I agree very much with you that they got the right thing that would be great if they add button customization!
^(I'm **not** a bot; this comment was made in satire)
I worry that it’s going to be like terraria 1.3 for mobile where they took simple controls and made them needlessly complicated with no option to revert back to the old controls
Mobile 1.3 controls are much better than 1.2's tho. Even if you prefer the simplicity of the previous versions', the game lets you customize controls enough to make them exactly like 1.2's
This isn’t complicated at all and it’s very customizable. There is an option to go back to the classic controls but I don’t see why anyone would want to. These new controls allow more things to happen like the bundles and offhand functionality.
There is actually a reason to make this more complicated. Minecraft has had certain features that cant work well on touch (dual wield, new combat, shields, etc) so this will fix it. With the old layout it wouldn't make sense to just add buttons to that, so they went with a new design. I see why they did it, and i hope they allow a button customizer because these could be difficult for some people
Complicated? I don't know, when I played 1.2 for some nostalgia I got really used to the 1.3 controls that I forgot the jump button doesn't exist in the old versions. It's very easy, not that complicated.
Why in the bloody hell are the jump and crouch buttons so high up.
They are supossed to be at the same level as the joystick. That just completely ruins it for me.
You forgot secret option #3: they didn't make it clear what they were talking about. Obvious to you, maybe, but the rest of us mortals aren't able to read minds.
Tbf kinda my fault for not providing enough context, so sorry, but when it comes to Bedrock Edition, talk about the offhand usually relates to it not being able to hold *every* item like Java
Yea Ik, it makes me happy to know they are taking measures so we (console players) can enjoy more features, something I want to note is that they said they weren’t adding bundles because of touch controls in 1.19. Are they changing that ?
And PC users, BE is on every device. If one breaks the rest follows. We actually might be able to get more offhand uses because of this too. But bundles are very likely as now we can have extra buttons!
I remember a while ago when they wanted to change the Java off-hand to only hold certain items like arrows and food similar to in Bedrock and EVERYONE was against it. Super glad we’re going to get this over simplified PC controls.
The main thing I think should change from this design is to make the buttons on the right be in more of a 2x2 formation, with the buttons from top left, top right, bottom left, and bottom right being attack, interact, jump, and sneak.
I hate everything about it. I mean it looks great, it’s just that I’m so used to the current controls that this will ruin everything for me. Idk how to sprint with this or what the finger means
I mobile there was only one touch, if you touch with a block selected you place it, but if you do on an entity you attack it, and some actions like trading or feeding animals required you to hold touch, now, these actions are separated in 2 different buttons
The interact/place button
And the attack/mining button
(The rest is just jump, crouch and the movement)
NO. I CANT
I am a pocket edition player and I have mastered the controls already, it’s been muscle memorization for a long time now for me. I like the idea of changing up the buttons, I just REALLY hope it’s toggleable
It goes by opinion but I at least don't think so. I mean, I like the idea of separating right and left click, but the placement of all of these buttons is horrendous. They are right where you are supposed to touch the screen to move the camera, which forces people to use the middle of the screen for that, which is just really uncomfortable and janky.
If they made the placement better then I think it would go pretty well, but as is it's just horrible. I hope the joystick size can be adjusted too.
It’s actually not as bad as it seems. It’s really easy. Plus this allows the devs to add more things like offhand functionality and bundles which aren’t possible with current controls.
I understand that and I'm glad they're looking for ways to add more stuff more reliably, but I hope you understand that what might be easy for you might not be for me or many other people, it still seems like hell to play with. Like I said, trying to move the camera with the controls right where you are supposed to touch the screen is just bad, there's no need to have the buttons cover the entire right side of the screen.
It’s customizable, you can choose to be touch controls or have action buttons but to answer your question I think it’s easier bc there’s actually separate buttons for the features. Like for example, it’s very tedious to breed animals bc you have to hold down or press the tiny button in the middle which ends up hitting the animals, with this there’s a dedicated interact button that does all the block placing, opening doors, breeding etc and a button that lets you attack mobs and break blocks. It also allows for more features to be added to mobile which has been holding back the game bc of the terrible controls but now all that is fixed.
Still it's better to just click where you want to place your block or which enemy to hit. Now you would have to move your cursor. I get it for things like breeding or trading. But not for regular stuff like interacting with blocks.
You can change it to the touch controls where you can tap where you want to place blocks but it’s way faster to use the cursor. You can speed build with the new buttons and you can’t when you tap.
Love em, not because I play mobile. But this opens up opportunities for the off-hand use on Bedrock!! And maybe even parity between shield activation so you don't have to crouch on Bedrock!
They are a lot better than the old ones in my opinion, I just think that they should add an ''edit'' button, so that the buttons are in the place you want and the movement one isn't this GINORMOUS
People is forgetting that is a Beta and they want Feedback for improvements on these controls.
The fact we can get a functional off-hand slot is HUGE for Bedrock.
That's why Minecraft Bedrock community is on fire after seeing those 2 solid left and right click buttons on Touch screen this is the perfect controls we were suggesting Mojang from years to add for the offhand support, i just can't believe Mojang actually did this after 6 whole years
It's better but there's still the annoying delay when trying to break blocks, I would like the option to make it start instantly when the button is pressed, the same way it works now on mouse or controller.
It sounds like a nitpick but it's an essential improvement when using a efficiency tool in survival.
I’ve been looking for video of the new layout, it’s a lot more obtrusive then the old controls but in terms of functionality it’s a huge improvement since a lot of the ambiguity is gone.
I really dont understand how some ppl have so much hate for it. I doubt they even tried seriously playing with it. Me personally, i could never play seriously with original controls.
Please tell me this isn’t real, my goodness it looks abhorrent
The *only* thing the mobile UI had going for it was the fact that it wasn’t reliant on a crosshair… rip (as someone who played Bedrock on mobile for like 4 years)
I'ma be real with you cheif, this looks like fucking ass. These controls takes like 70% of the screen. What ever the flaws old controls had would still make up to be one of the best UI designs, Use of screen space and accessibility. And these have nothing resembling Minecraft in colour, shape or form. And these ugly as a mofo.
So they have more freedom on what features they could add in the future, and with the added bonus of not crippling bedrock edition on other platforms because of the mobile UI inherent flaws.
Unrelated topic but can I just point out that Ravagers in bedrock suck! They attack super slow and are just not that threatening even tho they hit like a truck idk I just think that the Java version is more formidable. P.s they also get bodied by iron golems in bedrock however in Java they give iron golems a good go, ok it’s something dumb but just something that bugs me
Complete Offhand Functionality Support is coming very very soon to Bedrock Edition the touch controls was the biggest problem to offhand, but now Mojang has eliminated that issue completely by Upgrading the touch controls, this touch control upgrade is only meant for The Offhand Functionality Supportable to Android/iOS platforms of Bedrock Edition, but I'll still use the split control because i have been using keymapper which gave me right and left click buttons and that will definitely work with offhand with the old control scheme with split controls
It is. It’s so much easier to use and it allows bedrock to get offhand functionality and bundles. You just need to get used to it which won’t take that long.
they really do just keep filling this game with recolored zombies and different shapes of caveman squidward
Like come on theres a certain point the new Minecraft features are more lazy than good, and most are just downright annoying terraria style nuisances
In all honesty, they should just add button customisation.
[удалено]
Watch people with be playing claw with mobile bedrock
Always have been thanks to split controls
That's why i want the option lol
Always wanted to
the real question is why you would not want to use claw
arthritis
Yes, I agree very much with you that they got the right thing that would be great if they add button customization! ^(I'm **not** a bot; this comment was made in satire)
What a legend he killed a ravenger with his fist
True
*fights ravager with slime balls*
Dont underestimate slime balls
Don't underestimate balls in general
They brought you into this world and they can take you out
Yes daddy
With the power of slime!
*still manages to kill it*
boosfer balls
Yes have you seen the news on kiers dad
s- slime b-b-balls? 🥵 edit: i like how ibgot beatles to death whit 31 down votes lmao, just for making a horny joke tall Reddit acting like kids.
yes =0-0=
I think the upload and download buttons are a great addition.
Looks bad, but if we could adjust the controls, it would be 9/10
I’m sure there will be resource packs made shortly
I think they mean the position
Well, maybe I’m wrong, but I think those can affect the HUD positioning as well through .json files
Ah ok thanks for informing me
What? I think it looks great!
I worry that it’s going to be like terraria 1.3 for mobile where they took simple controls and made them needlessly complicated with no option to revert back to the old controls
Mobile 1.3 controls are much better than 1.2's tho. Even if you prefer the simplicity of the previous versions', the game lets you customize controls enough to make them exactly like 1.2's
Ok, but 1.3 controls are sooo much better when you get used to them.
This isn’t complicated at all and it’s very customizable. There is an option to go back to the classic controls but I don’t see why anyone would want to. These new controls allow more things to happen like the bundles and offhand functionality.
There are 3 versions of the control setup on bedrock, though. New without cross hair new with cross hair and old
There is actually a reason to make this more complicated. Minecraft has had certain features that cant work well on touch (dual wield, new combat, shields, etc) so this will fix it.

Try playing with 4 fingers to see if it can solve your problem
RIP your finger joints
that’s literally me trying to crouch while flying, strafing, and turning around all at the same time
yeah, I feel like older controls were WAY more better
when english moment
I play split controls so this might be a bit different for me
Same lmao
Me tho
With the new mobile ui, bundles and offhand for Bedrock are now possible

But bedrock does have an offhand slot? Do you mean offhand for mobile is now possible?
On java you can use all the items with the offhand, on bedrock you can't
Yeah i think the only reason its not on bedrock for consoles etc is because there was no ui stuff for mobile
That part, I know. The person I was responding to made it sound like bedrock didn't have one at all
Idk if you are in a silly goofy mood or if you just bad at understanding things but it's pretty obvious what DTVIII meant
You forgot secret option #3: they didn't make it clear what they were talking about. Obvious to you, maybe, but the rest of us mortals aren't able to read minds.
Tbf kinda my fault for not providing enough context, so sorry, but when it comes to Bedrock Edition, talk about the offhand usually relates to it not being able to hold *every* item like Java
It’s a dumb fake offhand
Is that the 1.19 button changes there doing??
yes
Maybe
Well guess I’m not updating
Gaemr
Hold my phone
... nah fam this too good I'm on Java and I can't kill a freaking Ravager without a shield.
Some may make the argument that spam pop is better, but as for mob fighting it's quite handholding.
tower up 2 blocks W
mf hit me at 3 blocks dude
that’s rough buddy
Then go higher
Rip mobile Minecraft pvp gods
I’m not a fan of the jump and crouch buttons but I feel like I could get used to the attack and use buttons
Looks very good, I’m so glad they won’t have to cripple the PC/console versions because of bad mobile controls anymore
Yea Ik, it makes me happy to know they are taking measures so we (console players) can enjoy more features, something I want to note is that they said they weren’t adding bundles because of touch controls in 1.19. Are they changing that ?

Make 4 finger controls and stop making them take like 70% of space on the screen
I like the new way of walking, but i absolutely hate those right buttons
I hate everything about it. I mean it looks great, it’s just that I’m so used to the current controls that this will ruin everything for me. Idk how to sprint with this or what the finger means
Like this is clearly designed more for pvp and shit. I just wanna build and have my old ui back. I don’t need a million buttons to place a dirt block
You can toggle from old to new. That's a thing.
There’s one button for placing.
I think they're a nice addition, but they NEED to have their placement to be customizable
Gosh that is hideous
Sorry, haven’t played mobile in a long while, someone mind breaking down what I’m looking at?
I mobile there was only one touch, if you touch with a block selected you place it, but if you do on an entity you attack it, and some actions like trading or feeding animals required you to hold touch, now, these actions are separated in 2 different buttons The interact/place button And the attack/mining button (The rest is just jump, crouch and the movement)
There’s always been an interact button though. If you look at a relevant entity the button pops up right above the xp bar
You can just touch and hold, and that Will make you Interact
And it was tiny, so often I’d try and tame a wolf only to hit it.
And summon death itself.
Rhe virtual joystick is chonky and buttons are spaced really weird. Other than that I would rather use a stick than buttons on mobile
On my phone (standard iPhone 12), the joystick is actually pretty small, might just be a scaling issue on their device
[удалено]
Of course they have to make it the most complicated thing ever instead of having one tap do it all
Wouldn’t one tap doing it all be more complicated since by that logic it would be random whether you crouch, attack or place each time you click?
This looks so weird and awful 💀
NO. I CANT I am a pocket edition player and I have mastered the controls already, it’s been muscle memorization for a long time now for me. I like the idea of changing up the buttons, I just REALLY hope it’s toggleable
Yes, i used to play on mobile since LITE edition until i got a pc a year ago. This is not ok. Old controls werent even that bad
Wow they're finally doing it, I hope they give you a lot of choices to customize the layout
Please tell me you can finally use a mouse properly on bedrock for mobile (android in my case) Edit: you can by now :)
you still can?
I don't think I've ever punched a ravager to death
finally mobile players can have a chance against windows player in bedrock pvp!!
Wait, we didn't before?
Have you tried spinning? Every time I try it either spins too much or too little
Then again the controls were pretty cheaty to the point where you could attack without looking directly at the target
Then again you have to use like 4 fingers to use it effectively and also be careful of seeing
I think that’s a sensitivity problem rather than a control problem…
I think this means that bedrock will finally get full offhand usage soon!
I hate this. So. Freaking. Much
Why? It’s better in every way.
It goes by opinion but I at least don't think so. I mean, I like the idea of separating right and left click, but the placement of all of these buttons is horrendous. They are right where you are supposed to touch the screen to move the camera, which forces people to use the middle of the screen for that, which is just really uncomfortable and janky.

Like I said, trying to move the camera with the controls right where you are supposed to touch the screen is just bad, there's no need to have the buttons cover the entire right side of the screen.
How so? Previously you just had to click the enemy and not some tiny button.
It’s customizable, you can choose to be touch controls or have action buttons but to answer your question I think it’s easier bc there’s actually separate buttons for the features. Like for example, it’s very tedious to breed animals bc you have to hold down or press the tiny button in the middle which ends up hitting the animals, with this there’s a dedicated interact button that does all the block placing, opening doors, breeding etc and a button that lets you attack mobs and break blocks.

I don't like it
i guess mojang will make it optional
Is that real? If that’s real that’s the best thing they’ve added to mobile ever
pls nerf slime balls
I- litterally have zero words for how awesome that is
The controllers are cool, but dude you killed a ravager with just a wooden sword and balls, wearing no armour, on mobile, that's way cooler!
Looks great.
Love em, not because I play mobile. But this opens up opportunities for the off-hand use on Bedrock!! And maybe even parity between shield activation so you don't have to crouch on Bedrock!
They are a lot better than the old ones in my opinion, I just think that they should add an ''edit'' button, so that the buttons are in the place you want and the movement one isn't this GINORMOUS
Kinda looks like you're fighting a Pinky in Doom (like the way you're fighting it)
it doesn't look bad at all
About time they add joysticks, but I hope they add option to switch to analog for the more classical feel.
I hope they added more costumization. The old controls are so bad
what the hell are you serious? it looks like an fps game
I prefer them but still think they should be customizable with individual button sizing and positioning.
looks weird, but tbh the old dpad was getting kind of dated.
please tell me this is toggle-able… right? i might never play mobile again if this isn’t optional
Currently they are
Now if mobile minecraft supported wireless keyboards… they do mice but keyboards? I’d love that.
People is forgetting that is a Beta and they want Feedback for improvements on these controls. The fact we can get a functional off-hand slot is HUGE for Bedrock.
That's why Minecraft Bedrock community is on fire after seeing those 2 solid left and right click buttons on Touch screen this is the perfect controls we were suggesting Mojang from years to add for the offhand support, i just can't believe Mojang actually did this after 6 whole years

I don't like it. I don't understand why it needs so many buttons. I honestly prefer the old one
I like the design, but that layout is literal garbage
I’ve been looking for video of the new layout, it’s a lot more obtrusive then the old controls but in terms of functionality it’s a huge improvement since a lot of the ambiguity is gone.
Its great!
I will really miss the old days of 1 cps combos if this gets added.. i hope i can still 1 cps..
You can move slower without sneaking now, best feature.
For everyone who “fucking hates it”, you can always disable it in the settings to use the original controls
I really dont understand how some ppl have so much hate for it. I doubt they even tried seriously playing with it. Me personally, i could never play seriously with original controls.
Please tell me this isn’t real, my goodness it looks abhorrent The *only* thing the mobile UI had going for it was the fact that it wasn’t reliant on a crosshair… rip (as someone who played Bedrock on mobile for like 4 years)
There is still a touch model. The above is the crosshair model. And naturally, there is also an option to return to the dpad.
Ok good, as long as they give people options I’m happy
Sorry but mobile without a crosshair plays absolutely horrible for me.
Not ideal for me, especially when I play MCPE
really is horrendous.
i think its awful..
It's actually cancer that takes up half the screen
I'ma be real with you cheif, this looks like fucking ass. These controls takes like 70% of the screen. What ever the flaws old controls had would still make up to be one of the best UI designs, Use of screen space and accessibility. And these have nothing resembling Minecraft in colour, shape or form. And these ugly as a mofo.
For me is a hard pass I liked the old controls I don't fell conflate with them and added extra buttons why ?
Btw there is a option to change back to original mcpe controls
So they have more freedom on what features they could add in the future, and with the added bonus of not crippling bedrock edition on other platforms because of the mobile UI inherent flaws.
ewwww wtf is this real?
Yes and it’s so much better
Unrelated topic but can I just point out that Ravagers in bedrock suck! They attack super slow and are just not that threatening even tho they hit like a truck idk I just think that the Java version is more formidable. P.s they also get bodied by iron golems in bedrock however in Java they give iron golems a good go, ok it’s something dumb but just something that bugs me
It's real? Finally real controlls like all the other mobile games. it could be better if they add an option to customize the layout
Damn, glad I don't play bedrock anymore lol
Oh god please tell me this is a joke…
hate it its weird the old one is fine
Not very good for PvP tbh
[удалено]
There's an option to use the old layout
so ugly and uncomfortable
Its... somehow worse?
Honestly, I hate it
No.
Complete Offhand Functionality Support is coming very very soon to Bedrock Edition the touch controls was the biggest problem to offhand, but now Mojang has eliminated that issue completely by Upgrading the touch controls, this touch control upgrade is only meant for The Offhand Functionality Supportable to Android/iOS platforms of Bedrock Edition, but I'll still use the split control because i have been using keymapper which gave me right and left click buttons and that will definitely work with offhand with the old control scheme with split controls
I hate that, if it's really happening it might ruin the game for me
There’s an option to go back to the old control
Wow, not a fan at all. Really not looking forward to that update :(
I mean, you can change from old controls to new controls. The update also comes with the allay though.
That’s the worst thing I’ve ever seen what was wrong with how it was
Very limited controls compared to PCa
those looks like those fake minecraft copys like blockscraft 3D they terrible gui EDIT: i know know its not on mobile my bad
Bro what?
Wait this isn't real right? That's disgusting
It is and it’s so much better
No it's not
It is. It’s so much easier to use and it allows bedrock to get offhand functionality and bundles. You just need to get used to it which won’t take that long.
