The language isn't the problem, it's the structure you make with it. It's not impossible for parity between languages, they just didn't for some reason.

[@projects8634]

Kind of late but wanted to tell the reason to those who are curious. From the very base the Bedrock and Java editions are built completely differently for different systems. Minecraft Java just is not going to run on lower power devices such as a phone or Switch, and it was not built with cross-compatibility in mind. Before bedrock, each system got its own version of Minecraft, which was clearly terribly inefficient and too much work. So Bedrock edition was made from the ground up to work with most devices. However, C++ was used instead of Java, because C++ code is much easier to optimize (and there are a lot of problems with using Java on every device). So they had to build it from the ground up in a different language, and as the person above stated, the language does not have much effect on how the game works, but rebuilding it in a different language definitely does have some effect. When they rebuilt redstone, they did not care about how it works in Java, they cared about how it should have worked. It was kind of a second chance and added a lot of cool new things as purplers mentioned. However, now they introduced unique issues for Bedrock, and a lot of the semi-not-that-big-of-a-deal-bugs and internal workings of the game that redstoners depended on to create cool circuits were no longer there, because they could not be there due to Bedrock and Java being basically separate games.

First of all QC and 1 tick piston are just bug from code air, while in bedrock it just make sense to make it random because both should to power at the same time. Also Java is not the "main Minecraft" by having more mads. And is less laggy with bedrock, it isn't better by coming out first or you used more on. I thing bedrock redstone is just fine, it isn't that bad.

[@Jzombi301]

@@Waluigiredstone they're bugs that got kept as features because they were so useful. while the randomness may kinda make sense in theory because they are being powered at the exact same time, in practicality it's much more frustrating than useful. the only way random pistons could be useful is if you were trying to make a system that's purposefully random, and there are MUCH fewer use cases for that. most of the time you just want your builds to work reliably every time. sure, you can make an argument saying there is no "main" Minecraft version because they're all equally valid and this whole war between Bedrock and Java is on par with the whole console wars and the console vs PC debate in terms of ridiculousness, if there was a "main" Minecraft version, it would be Java simply because of the fact that it came out first and is still being developed. although i feel like sometimes Microsoft is trying to push Bedrock more and more until eventually Java becomes obsolete. they wouldn’t do that tho because it would literally kill the game. it's just something i worry about sometimes no one's saying it's better _just_ because it came out first. there are *many* reasons why Java is objectively better especially when it comes to redstone. he listed them all out in this video perfectly. yes, there are advantages to playing Bedrock and some aspects of the game may be better overall (like combat imo) but we dont need to get into those debates. so much of it though really just comes down to personal preference. if you like Bedrock more, that's your opinion. if you're not bothered by the inconsistencies, unreliability, and overall slowness of Bedrock redstone, congratulations. you're in the minority

[@Waluigiredstone]

@@Jzombi301 ​ randomness is less used don't mean not used. the way you want your builds to work reliably is by removing all randomness, and not keeping it "2 + 2=5" bedrock is sometime 2+2= 2 , 5 or 7 but it isn't alway unreliably. And bug are just mistake that make redstone harder to learn for beganer and their use is replaceable. sure that it will it would literally kill the game by removing bedrock or java because there is so many people on both. But if Microsoft is trying to push Bedrock more and more until eventually Java becomes obsolete. Is a bad thing, like how I said. Java is objectively better especially when it comes to redstone isn't true, they both the two diffent thing. Most the time Java is smaller and fast but bedrock is less laggy. Like how you can't say an Apple is better than an orange. By having more good youtuber in Java doesn't make it better, just like playing Java doesn't make you better at redstone. if there is a "main" Minecraft isn't a thing. They are both Minecraft!

As a redstoner who mainly plays on bedrock this is very eye opening thanks

[@_wetmath_]

as an ex-bedrock redstoner, i always thought the biggest advantage it had over java redstone was being more intuitive, because QC was very difficult to understand for redstone beginners. i even thought that redstone inconsistency made sense as it highlights ambiguous redstone wiring. only today, 2 years later after leaving bedrock redstone, did i learn about certain bedrock redstone components only updating/powering on odd or even ticks (the observer + rail clock example). i had a flashback of a time when messing around with observers and repeaters having unusual behaviour. i thought that observers were simply slower, just like pistons. this is true, but not for the simple reason i thought. i hope this video convinces everyone that bedrock redstone is really bad, because i know i would have been convinced more than 2 years ago. thanks for this video!

[@cubed.public]

But...that's a bug...the concept of bedrock redstone isn't bad that's probably just bedrock being bedrock. Maybe one day they'll fix that since its not as defined as Java QC which they will never fix. I still think, even after loving (mostly) everything about Java, that the game should at least start with some version of Bedrock redstone. The number of times I see a new player go into redstone, try and make a simple door, then get utterly confused when a piston gets qc powered and just give up. You might think (and probably most people watching a video about redstone) that they will hop onto youtube and start watching tutorials, but in reality most people will probably go "oh well, I tried, redstone isn't that important anyway" As we advance farther and begin exploiting the bugs (features) of Java redstone, the more you love it and the more you wish for the exploits - leading to the classic argument of should you exploit a game's features. In the end though, there's really nothing you can do, other than maybe making 2 different types of pistons that functions like the 2 versions, which will probably never happen.

It would be nice if there was a way to introduce QC which people would understand, but that's not really easy. But I think that all the parts that make java redstone different other than that are things that affect technical builds and if someone tries to make a technical build, they should try to learn something about it, exploiting how a game is made can make it much more interesting and have much more depth. I think that for now we just need to wait for someone at Mojang to have a good idea to teach players about QC, but that's almost impossible in a sandbox game.

Another issue imo about bedrock's random update order for pistons is that if a circuit breaks 1/20 of the time, you might not realize it's unreliable until you've already integrated it into a complicated machine, and now you probably have to completely rebuild a lot of the machine just to fit an actually reliable version of that circuit

I think it would be really nice to have parity. The problem has always been that Minecraft should be coded like bedrock (in C++ for the performance and cross-platform capabilities), but should work like Java (with all the janky determinism).

[@henryeth3753]

Disclaimer: excuse my inconsistent grammar. I'm rushing. I have played both versions for a few years now (and coincidentally programmed in both languages), and I definitely see where this all comes from. For me, it is bedrock's unreliability vs java's bugs gone features. The problem is that the main bedrock redstone hate is from its lack of these bugs gone features. Mostly this is QC of course. There is also block spitting, which to me is completely unintuitive (useful as it may be), and I still don't know whether or not this is and/or was intended. Outside of piston doors, I don't have a lot to say. Movable tile entities are useful everywhere, and both versions have pros and cons in storage tech (I never really delve into that so I can't say anything really). Outside of that, I don't think there are any notable differences. Actually, there is that side (that I personally hate) of computational redstone that uses pistons/observers everywhere where QC causes pain and block spitting brings healing. I will always stick to classic (ie. dust, repeaters, comparators). Piston doors are the main source of the debate. For fast doors, java is all centred around 0-ticks, which I am fairly bad in but they seem fairly repetitive to me. But I admire everyone who faces the challenge of making compact 0-tick doors, which I consider the most challenging piston door field. Bedrock's fast doors really come down to layouts. After that it's just timings, which I tend to struggle to keep motivation for. Aside from layouts, they are really the same as just compact doors, but all about the pain of timings. Bringing me on to compact doors. Controversial opinion time: At a world-record level, in this day and age, I believe it is more challenging and fulfilling to work on compact doors in Bedrock. Soft inversion is the cherry on top, always motivating you to go layout-size on the bottom. (Cherry on bottom?) Lack of QC/spitting, and all the timing inconsistency, make smallest possible a lot larger in bedrock than java. Don't get me wrong, I admire the cyclers, observer-spammers, hopper ROMmers of the java world. And my utmost respect for the obsless sweats knowing the ins and outs of every entity in the game (I think entity usage is something missed from this video, more on that shortly). But simply because progression is nowhere near the level of Java in bedrock, I find it more fun and more constantly interesting wiring small (relatively) doors on bedrock. Everything has not been done already. Quick note about the entities, I rarely use them tbh. But in bedrock it seems to be armour stands and striders in minecarts (there's some tff with 6 striders or smth idek). Then I go to Java and I've angered an enderman in a boat clipped into sand held up by 4 furnace minecarts clipped into hoppers in a dh system with 20 chest/hopper minecarts. And a chicken pod for extra scenery. I think I got my point across. ... Example Take an example, I recently cracked the key to a 4-wide 7x7 vault door in bedrock. A similar example in java is the 1-wide cycle doors of late (most notably the 5x5). What's the difference? That same cycle concept can be scaled up intuitively and without a massive amount of difficulty (that will come smallest possible attempt). But the 4-wide 7x7 vault concept I have works only for that size, no 8x8s happening yet. This constant required innovation is what makes bedrock compaction ultimately more fun for me. TL;DR Intro: I am unbiased, with years of simultaneous experience in both editions. Bedrock has unreliability, Java has QC and block spitting (which I find completely unintuitive). MTEs are amazing. Everything outside pistons and observers is largely unaffected (eg. classic computational which is almost edition-proof). Fast doors: Java => 0-ticks => kinda repetitive => unwire-able layouts aren't repetitive => but they're unwire-able. Compact 0-ticks => most challenging piston door type IMO => mad respect. Bedrock => only really layouts => after that just compact doors with pain timings => pretty boring => motivation STRUGGLES. Small doors: record-level, current knowledge => Bedrock more challenging/fulfilling => even though smallest possible is bigger => controversial I know. Bottom layout size => pretty much needs intricate soft inversion => tricky and fun. Bedrock has less layout progression (and just general) => (see the example). Finally, obsless+entityful sweats are crazy people with triple my iq and knowledge capacity. Thank you for listening to my TED talk.

[@gearsgamer7115]

issue is that he forgot to mention a few things, BEDROCK redstone if your on a chunk border FAILS, rotation FAILS. The main issue with bedrock redstone is that you have to COMPENSATE too much, have to build a door at a chunk border? Sorry, you CANNOT get it to work at all. Want to rotate your contraption? Nope. You practically have to rebuild your entire base to fit the door, and sometimes the doors being more reliable, compact, and fast IS USEFUL IN SURVIVAL. Its a pain to get bedrock redstone working. You are CLEARLY biased in this situation. Yes, bedrock redstone can be "more fun to compact". The issue is that bedrock redstone will ultimate be bigger, slower, and trash. Yes, it is more fun to compact redstone on bedrock, but that really isn't the case. You said java is "kinda repetitive' but THE ISSUE with that is java ALLOWS for more ceatvivty when it comes to layouts, beacuse there are more way to power pistons. Another flaw in your argument is the point that bedrock redstone is "more chaleging and complicated" which is completely FALSE. Ive found java redstone to be extreme changeling, you have to spam entities, find smart ways of doing things. The point of entities, fidning hitboxes, and stuff completley counterargues you saying that bedrock is harder. People spend HOURS finding ways to fit entities into doors. If you say bedrock is more chaneling, you clearly dont have enough experince in java redstone. The most arguable part of java redstone, is that you can practically get bedrock redstone with mods, which combined with java's superior reliability makes it better. This includes mtes(or movable tile entities) with carpet mod. You can also if you really want to remove block spitting. Mods just make java superior, which is LEFT OUT OF YOUR ARGUMENT. Overall, you leave out major details making your argument flawed. Yes it is hard to account for the flaws of bedrock. But at some point, and mods, java redstone gets harder, because you get more creativity with layouts. Also, block spitting and budding ARE INTUITIVE to 99% of redstoners. All these facts CLEARLY show that you that have less experince with java, or are biased. Either way, there are gaping holes in your argument.

I knew bedrock redstone was bad (as i already hated how sluggish the piston is), but then I learned about the fact the some redstone only activates every other tick. Then I remembered that there's no priority on redstone, the game would just choose a random block to update first. I cannot remember how many times my redstone would fail because of that one difference, it truly was painful.

[@Germwiss74]

Java Minecraft piston really fast

[@masonaxenty4869]

I remember designing a 3x3 flush piston door in bedrock and had the worst time with piston retraction order. The door would frequently break because I was powering multiple pistons at the same time, but wasn’t able to find a way to make the redstone compact enough to find any other solution.

[@NierH7]

There are two culprits for this Bedrock system being like this. Firstly the Devs, which are not the same as the Java Edition, and secondly the pairing with cell phones. This version's chunk simulation is very strange, it doesn't update like in Java, which is due to the exact distance from the player's position. It updates by exact chunks, always starting from the next one where the player is located, regardless of whether he's on the edge or in the middle. This helps with performance and optimization, but ends up causing these differences and other issues. Like the fact that this forces players to always build redstone in the middle of chunks so they don't break. And this is one of the reasons why I hate zero tick farms, they are noisy, break easily and cause a lot of server lag. And unfortunately for me, they are the ones that the community shares the most on the internet.

I've been a bedrock player for basically my whole life (only played java before pocket edition came out) and I can sort of agree.Seeing all these people making really complex redstone contraptions that only exist because redstone in java is just more compact and consistant in most (or all) cases.Despite being really compact though,it still runs at snail speeds (like huge redstone doors) and if these builds were converted to bedrock (if it were even possible to do so) it would be even slower,less compact and just harder in general.I can understand bedrock players when they see a build they really want but then realizing it's for java,It's sad.But looking at the other end,the builders.The people that make these complicated redstone builds have been playing java for a reason whatever that reason may be.But they enjoy making these in java.more than in bedrock.Hope this would make people understand that the redstone builders have preferences too and if they don't do bedrock builds,they probably never will.

I've played with Bedrock Redstone for many years, and along with many contraptions, I've also made an absurd amount of concept notes about how to build stupidly large calculators and computers that have no practical use. I've found that bedrock Redstone can be pretty easy to understand, and it's easy to hodge-podge together discreet components easily to make some type of basic processor. However, I've also find that most of my Redstone logic takes place in very bulky piston logic gates, or large item based counter components, and can be much slower and larger (though for me, the easy to understand happenings suit me, when I'm trying to piece together larger interactions), which is why java Redstone is probably the best overall Redstone when it comes to making refined, elegant, efficient, and fast machines. However, as someone who has also played with bedrock edition Redstone since they released it on pocket edition and grown used to it, nor have any of the above descriptors ever described how I build Redstone, I'm still going to use it anyway.

Because of how bedrock redstone works I can't make what I want to make and that kinda ruins my playthroughs.

My bedrock experience: - Opens bedrock - Builds a 1-tick piston monostable - Sticky piston doesn't spit out the block - Monostable doesn't event output 1 tick - Uninstalls

Before you bought both versions together, what settled me getting java was the redstone. I'm not even very into redstone.

thank you for this video i thought i was dumb while trying to do redstone on bedrock and having pistons just do what they wanted especially trying to make a flying machine that didn't break i got it to fly the first time and i guess i just got god rng

Well now my younger self can finally rest in peace. Always thought that the red stone machines I tried to make from KZbin videos, Java videos, broke because I did something wrong and was always my fault. Man. So much agony now gone. Thanks for the video and for giving me clarity.

The only reason to play bedrock is that you can blame *everything* on it Did you die? Bedrock Did something not work? Bedrock Did the game lag? Bedrock Did something inexplainable happen? Thats right, bedrcok

Hi to all! Does anyone know the name of the game: One room with a table on which there are buttons, secrets, then levers appear. Above the table hangs a screen that shows how the player's actions affect the world. A horror puzzle game. Thank you!❤

[@johnirby8847]

I have created designs in Bedrock that rival the best designs in Java and even exceed them. Once you start messing with things you realize how deep it goes. Intead of an item sorter that groups items then sends them to this long hallway of hoppers at double or quad speed. You move the chests themselves. The sorting is the chests themselves. You move each individual chest from a group of chests underneath using bouncing sand to move the chest in 4 ticks, fill it, then it automatically moves the chest back to the location in 4 ticks. Since items can be moved near instantly through a line of sand on pistons, this also applies to chests full of items. No hoppers, no waiting, no sorting with hoppers. Simply input what chest you want by droping one of the item in the chest and the chest moves to you. Once loaded the chest automatically moves back to its location. Impossible in Java

[@WingsOfEnd]

As a bedrock only player. With channel that focuses on BEDROCK REDSTONE TUTORIALS I never understood the whole Redstone debate. Bedrock redstone just makes sense and is more realistic then java. If something isn't connected in bedrock it won't work, the whole bud powering and QC thing in Java makes absolutely zero sense to me. Another thing Slime is sticky so you can say it's GLUE of Minecraft. How does it make sense that you have a Sticky Piston, a piston with "GLUE" on it connected to a block made of "GLUE" and still have them separate THE WHOLE POINT OF IT IS TO BE STICKY. To me Java redstone seems to be the epitome of BUGS being turned to "FEATURES". Sure you can't say it hasn't allowed for some mind blowing builds. But to say that Java Redstone makes more sense or is more realistic then Bedrock is just wrong.

[@Meshguy]

[@gdtargetvn2418]

It doesn't make sense or looks realistic, we just say that it's more convenient and opens up more possibilities for redstone contraptions to work

[@KajtekBeary]

Well, when you are talking about realism… if you take glue and glue two things together… and just really fast pull one of those things, they will propably split…

[@KajtekBeary]

And the difference is: Java’s bugs are useful, bedrock’s bugs breaks the redstone. Randomness.

[@skyjack1]

Do you really expect a fictional machine to function “realistically?” Even if you ignore the fact that these machines are fictional, there are instances of them not following logic.

[@Rndm8818]

6:26 I also tried something with redstone. I actually wanted to have lamps that retract into the ceiling. I had to try so much more than I would have to try in Java because it always broke because there is no update order. That was so frustrating that I just don't want to build all my redstone circuits so cool anymore and just built everything more quite boring😢

[@jensenthegreen6780]

Gahdamn all the bedrock kids are mad as hell 💀 I know it doesnt count but so many problems can be fixed with basically mods. For example, Moveable tile entities is fixed by the quark mod, And some other things. Dont get me started with tech mods, Create for example is very up to date you can basically do almost everything "physical" with it, ComputerCraft lets you... code?, Or ProjectRed (It was redpower back in the days) basically expanded redstone.' All my homies want parity.

[@sashasscribbles]

Tysm for this explanation! I'd heard Bedrock redstone was bad but since I didnt try to copy java contraptions much I havent really ran into these problems. Does explain why flying machines dont work on Bedrock tho... I dont know why anyone would complain if they did make redstone parity by taking the best from both; so mostly making by bedrock like Java but throwing in bedrock's benefits too. Except tile entities, I imagine Java is sadly screwed on that one... Like does anyone genuinely like the randomness and odd tick timings? I feel like anyone redstone literate enough to know of those problems would recognise them as issues Actually come to think of it is there a movable tile entities mod for Java? Heck if so why not have a "Perfect redstone" mod that adds all of Bedrock's benefits to Java

[@robertdemare6140]

honestly, i think that if mojang would do a massive redstone overhaul once, i'd want it so some features like quazi connectivety be a gamerule option, yet have things like the glass moving redstone downwards, or movable tile-entity's, also be a feature. so basically any features the versions have that differ from eachother making the contraption break be gamerule options, yet the features that could break some redstone that are completely avoidable not.

[@robertdemare6140]

still agree, but since ive been playing java, i also have to add. fuck quaziconnactivity

In my opinion I think there should be a mix in between bedrock and java where you can move blocks like chests and furnaces but you can also have 0 tick pistons but it works on mobile and pcs and any other device that can play minecraft. It would be so much better but its an unobtainable dream 😫

[@bigboiinanut9967]

Bedrock player here, and you have not angered me. In fact, every point here that was made just makes me wish we HAD java redstone, the bedrock redstone sucks. I might straight up use java for redstone despite mainly playing on bedrock.

[@Extra_Mental]

I used to play java but now its more convenient to play bedrock, i have to say bedrocks redstone is pretty hard to make anything complex and wish they would rewrite it to be like java

[@gearsgamer7115]

how is it more convenient to play a buggy mess,.I used to play bedrock all the time but i kept glitching in weird ways(aka textures not showing up, falling through the world randomly and losing all my stuff, weird stuttering when going out of spawn chunks even though my pc was pretty much top of the line, Redstone buggy mess, friends getting disconnected, etc) and having a SCAM of a marketplace which pulls you in to buying worthless piles of junk for "content". This was not to long ago, and java with essentials is actually EASIER than bedrock to setup multiplayer, because anyone can join your world if your friended. Java with a few mods like essential and carpet can make bedrock look like trash, well... because it is. With sodium i get BETTER performance than bedrock (like hundreds more fps, its CRAZY), essentials(to make server creation easier), and carpet. In what way is bedrock MORE CONVIENNT????

[@ProGhostMiner]

​@@gearsgamer7115 It's like the iPhone vs android debate. Sure, it is easier to mod androids and do more with them yet iPhones are more popular with the general populace. People don't buy iPhones because of its moddability or versatility, they buy them simply for convenience- same could be said about bedrock Minecraft. Most Minecraft players are young and/or don't have the necessary resources to play java (most play on mobile) and most don't even know there are such huge differences. From what I've seen, a lot of people like to play bedrock simply because of the crossplay and better performance simply because they don't know about mods like essentials and/or optifine, sodium, iris, etc. If the base performance of java was improved and server creation was made easier, I'm sure more players would switch over to Minecraft Java.
