This week Minecraft Bedrock Edition has entered the second beta of 1.19, Beta 1.19.0.24/Preview 1.19.0.25, with the addition of Echo Fragments and Retrospective Pointers. However, what many people have not noticed is that "bystander mode" has quietly been added to the game.
First, the update on the "bystander mode"
Since Minecraft Bedrock Edition was released in March at Beta 1.18.30.20, a spectator mode has been quietly added to the game, i.e. enter "/gamemode 6" in the game to turn on the God-like spectator mode.
As of now, Minecraft Bedrock Edition's spectator mode is still in the first phase of the original version, and has not been released in any official version. The code for spectator mode actually appeared in mc very early, and players can maintain spectator mode after they enter the game through a third-party editor. The difference compared to normal survival mode is simply that you can traverse blocks and don't die.
At the same time, you can also enter the game through input /gamemode 6 in the game, but many of the functions of the current spectator mode are not perfected, such as obvious stuttering in forward and backward, and not being able to rise and fall smoothly. However, it is currently possible to pass through the blocks to normally perform underground perspective.
Despite this, mc's Bedrock Edition players also shed tears of emotion: 8 years, waiting for 8 years, finally can experience the bedrock edition side mode!
Second, the ability to observe the mode
This is a fourth mode in addition to survival, creation, and adventure, which was added to Minecraft JAVA Edition 1.8 in 2014, but Bedrock Edition players can only look through autumn water, and it seems that it is technically impossible to add this feature to Bedrock.
In spectator mode, the player can traverse and reach anywhere in the world without hindrance, the player enters the invisible state, can fly freely, pass through blocks, and even enter the body of the entity, observe the world from the perspective of the entity, and so on. Specifically, several functions are as follows:
1. Stealth; players in the invisible state will not activate any mc events, nor will they be seen by other players and creatures; at the same time, they cannot interact with the world;
2, through the wall; through the wall will not be hurt, and can have perspective ability while passing through the wall;
3, flight; spectator mode players only have one flight state, can not walk and run, the player in flight is through the mouse button scroll wheel, or Ctrl to increase the speed, the speed can reach up to 87 blocks / s;
4. Can see invisible entities; players in spectator mode can see all invisible entities, including creatures, players and other players in spectator mode;
5, into the biological perspective; the special creature perspective includes the green perspective of the coolie, the anti-color perspective of the enderman, the blurry perspective of the spider, the red perspective of the cave spider, etc., including the minecart, the boat, and the painting also have their own perspective.
III. Follow-up update plan of Bedrock Edition "Spectator Mode":
In the latest release of Minecraft Bedrock Edition Beta 1.19.0.24, the official release of the follow-up update plan of the spectator mode: the original plan was scheduled to release an iteration of the spectator mode in the beta version of 1.19. Because 1.19 required a lot of wilderness update content, the iterative version of spectator mode had to be postponed. Due to the imperfect functionality of the current version, the spectator mode will be removed from the normal game and become part of the experimental gameplay in the subsequent beta version. It wasn't until the second version of the modified spectator mode was officially added to the game.
Questions about whether the Spectator Mode's "Bio-View" capability can be implemented in Bedrock Edition, which players are very concerned about: Mojang said that all the features of Spectator Mode based on the JAVA version will be added to the Bedrock Edition after improvement.
