I’ve seen a ton of weird bugs with Microsoft products in my work these last few months.
It’s clear to me they’re just rubber-stamping shitting LLM-generated code.
Bedrock edition has always had dogshit coding though. Could be AI is making it worse or it could be the fact they’ve neglected to fix game breaking bugs for years and all the new buggy code is making it worse.
The Bedrock edition has gained the nickname Bugrock because of how buggy it is. There has been several bugs in the game that just randomly kill the player for literal years. Mojang Redmond is a fucking joke.
It’s probably both. AI already struggles when adding code to well-designed codebases, and it’s certainly not better at it when the codebase is already crap…
Basic fixes for this version of the game have been neglected for so long. Yet not a single issue with the micro transactions stays around for long. Just the ones that break the actual core game get left behind.
Oh and for the people who don’t pay attention to the game, here is a list of the new issues.
- A bug which places the players cursor on screen
- A bug which turns the game completely pink got worse
- Animated textures randomly swap to something weird
- The game tabs you out randomly
- A memory leak issue causing the game to heavily lag
Ty for the list, I was curious since I’m a Java player and wouldn’t ever know. That’s… yeah that’s real bad. It’s bad when you make the Java version look stable.
It’s funny hearing this as someone locked into Java (microsoft doesn’t want Linux users accessing their 2.5 Billion dollar purchase, I guess). Wasn’t Bedrock started specifically to get away from all the Java jank?
I’m also a Java player, I refuse to touch the Bugrock edition because of all the problems with it. It’s also sad that Bugrock has gotten this bad this the original upside to it that it ran better is far from true anymore.
Every time I see a video of a hardcore player dying for just existing, my heart hardens a little more, I will stay on Java 1.12.2 and a shitton of mods instead of bugrock (incompatible with Linux)
Holup, is java compatible with Linux? Now i’m even more regret of buying bedrock but then again i wanna play with them niblings.
Java is compatible with Linux, there are multiple third party launchers that make or easier to mod and run the game, I use prismlauncher
That 30% code written by AI part seems extremely doubtful. A lot of companies are signaling this nonsense to make themselves seem modern when in reality it makes them look weak.
Microsoft is one of companies providing AI so they want the hype.
Honestly considering how much Windows has been fucking up far more than usual lately, I actually wouldn’t even doubt this figure at this point.
Isn’t that because they got rid of the dedicated QA teams? We’re the testers now!
30% of all NEW code seems plausible to me.
Or at least developers whose performance evaluation mandates AI usage and 30% sounds like a good number that’s not so big as to make management think they can just lay them off but not so small as to tank their performance review.
It’s almost certainly mostly “honor system”, from what I’ve seen they can tell how much code is generated but not how much actually lands in a code repo, except by self reporting.
It’s got a bit to go, it’s good, but to say it’s better is a bit of a stretch at the moment
It depends I guess what your definition of “better” is
- can you easily use 2 hands in the game? No.
- does it help fund genocide? Also no.
Ah, yes, “We have Minecraft at home”
I too love to hate on open-source projects 😎
It is so much better.

For all the bad AI is doing, I’d wager it could make a better meme that that eyesore.
(I agree by the way)
god what did they break this time lmao
Outside of the multiple bugs that randomly kill the player that’s been there for years?
A bug which places the players cursor on screen, a bug which turns the game completely pink got worse, animated textures randomly swap to something weird, the game tabs you out randomly and a memory leak.
I can’t even tell anymore if AI is really this bad, or if it’s the people that want to use it that are this bad.
But I’m sure the layoffs will help improve things, people. It’s just a matter of waiting a little more. \s
Both!
It’s a bubble
What did they break?

Thanks for the list. Having with with colleagues that use AI, that indeed sounds like it could be caused by AI.
