Minecraft Bedrock 1.20.1.70 Update: Banners, Bundles, and Naming Confusion

Minecraft's Bedrock update stirred up some buzz this week. The update log had a typo with the word "Enderman." Later, they added in banners, which was unexpected. Banners are not usually tied to cartographers in Bedrock. This change suggests a new trade option. Yet, there's no direct link between banners and maps on Bedrock now.

A secret feature also appeared in the update. The game's mushrooms now have a new texture. They look like cows, with snouts and an updated texture. This surprise wasn't mentioned in the official log. Fans, expecting updates, spotted the change.

Another exciting addition involves bundles. These might now appear in village chests. This change could be significant for players. It relates to "pause," which may be part of this update. The "pause" feature was pulled from a past update unexpectedly. Players hope this won't happen again.

The update is set to be a "drop," taking about three months to develop. It will have a small theme centered around the Overworld. The theme name and the update name are still unknown. The update is part of Minecraft's complex release system, which confuses many fans. Naming conventions can blend major and minor updates, adding to the confusion.

The update is numbered 1.20.1.70. It might sound simple, but it is not. Naming could be clearer if Minecraft changed how they label drops. A straightforward name like 1.22 could help. Currently, updates and drops get mixed up, leading to misunderstandings.

Players find it hard to remember which updates are major or minor. Bedrock's update naming system is especially confusing. Clearer naming could avoid long-term confusion and make version tracking easier.

Minecraft's development continues, with surprises and improvements popping up. As fans keep exploring, they watch for updates and changes, ready to explore new features.
