Game lags and is choppy because of new update

I did notice that getting close to a village with villagers in it would reliably trigger it, but it would sometimes go away after a while and start again later.

It's happening to me too, It doesn't lag when inside your base for example but if you try going outside it really lags. Isn't there any way to make this issue a top priority to be seen and fixed straightaway because personally i don't think the problems are taken any notice of.Also no has reported on other sites such as reddit or on twitter and i've seen people playing on twitch with no problems whatsoever so i don't know if it is console only experiencing this problem.

I just tried playing in Windows 10 for about 30 minutes and didn't have any issues, however I was playing on a relatively new map so there wasn't much to slow it down and it was in creative/peaceful. Can't say yet whether this will worsen as the world file size gets bigger.

Perhaps those that are having problems in Windows 10 can chime in? Are you playing on well established maps?

On Xbox One I originally created my world in the BTU beta. I'm wondering it is connected to that? I have a 350MB original Xbox One world that I can't convert yet due to conversion bugs, and if I lose everything I have done in my beta map because it was created in a beta, I'm going to be really pissed.

What's frustrating is that no one is responding from Mojang/Microsoft to get more information from us. You would think that with all these issues and people reporting them, that they would reach out to us to a) make sure we're also beta testing to correct the bugs and b) ask for our world files to see if its something specific with them. If there's a problem you go to those experiencing it to resolve it.

Based on the quality of the releases they are rushing them out the door to make money off the add-ons and don't care about the quality of the product anymore. BTU was not ready for public release and should still be in beta.

I managed to get a little video of evidence of lag on 1.2.3.6, I uploaded it to my twitter and i don't know if a link to the video would be allowed on here.

I have been playing minecraft for a long time and have never had as many issues with a game as this new update. the lag is making this game no fun and i have stopped playing as of now until something is done to make the game playable.

I had the same problem I’ve mannaged to dock it, if you have any Redstone clocks on the go and it’s not at the right Speed it lags your game out making your scream choppy, I mannaged to do this by dropping ther repeaters down to 4 ticks

Well, today is the 21st Oct, only a couple of days since I first commented here and today I had an update to my Xbox one version of minecraft. I have to say, at first it appeared that they had fixed the issue but sadly, only to a part.. During daylight time in the game the lag has dropped considerably although not completely but during the games night time cycle the lag remains and I was killed trying to get away from a skeleton in a darkish cave. I braved the chance to enter a populated village at night and was almost killed again by another skeleton because the framerate was so low I took 3 arrows just getting far enough away from him that he couldn't reach me. Please keep looking into this problem..........

I've played a bit more today and the lag seems to somehow be connected with night... I spent all day running around my base, farming, breeding animals, trading with my villagers, etc. Absolutely no lag. Then as soon as it started getting dark and the night music began playing – BAM – lag. The framerate dropped like crazy and everything started moving extremely slowly. I ran to my bed to sleep and as soon as the sleep completed the lag was gone, nothing. I again didn't have any problems until the next night began, then it was lag city all over again, but once again sleeping/daylight fixed it.

lagging for me as well after 1.2.3 update on xbox one. i get constant small hitches as i move around the world, but very bad lag when around many enemies or mobs, at night especially.

I disabled a redstone clock in my world and that reduced the lag - not 100%, but it was playable for the most part. The lag continues particularly when it rains, at night, or when there are other "heavy render activity" generators going on in the world such as too many mobs, a lot of movement (causing constant screen updates) and other such things.

I have the same problem too. Since I loaded this version of minecraft it crashs my system to where I have to unplug the power cord to my Xbox to gain control powering off and back on does not work unplugging is the only thing that works. This new minecraft is the only game that does this.

I have been experiencing the lag as described above as well. However, I have also encountered something weird that may help to identify this issue. The lag seems to near about completely affect the person who created the world. We play as a family in our house and only the host experiences the vast majority of the lag while the only players enjoy a vastly unmolested experience virtually lag free except under the host most severe episodes.

Definitely still exists in 1.2.5.12.

Still experimenting in 1.2.5 Build 12, but I haven't experienced any lag yet. I re-enabled my clock and that had no impact on the frame rate. Night did not impact the frame rate either. Waiting for some rain, but so far looks promising for me. Hoping this isn't one of those "spoke too soon moments".

Ugh... spoke too soon. Overall I see improvements but I am still noticing some lag and choppiness. The frame rate doesn't always drop according to the beta data at the top of the screen, but I am definitely experiencing choppiness, mostly when turning directions especially if there's a lot to render on the screen. The lag seems worst when there is disk activity and I notice frame rate drop then.

Noticing much greater lag and FRP drop in non-peaceful modes. Makes sense as there are more mobs active.

Lag is really bad to where i cant move at all and see what im doing

Xbox one s here, frame rate is really poor, especially when turning horizontally.. (rotating/spinning)

Even turning off all fancy graphics doesn't fix the problem.
I mean come on, someone should be testing updates before they're pushed ya?

This still exists in 1.2.5.13. In my case, everything is fine during the day, game runs completely smooth at 60fps, but as soon as night begins the frame rate drops to 5fps and everything becomes incredibly slow. Once it's day again all the lag goes away.

Interestingly, I can also trigger lag during the day if I go to my village and hit one of the villagers to make the iron golems angry. In that case the frame rate drops to somewhere in the 20-40 range and things slow down, but not as bad as night lag. As soon as the golems lose their aggro the lag goes away.

And... today is now the 29th Oct, 8 days since my last post and I still haven't had an update since the 21st.. My game still lags but I'm also noticing it lags during the initial loading of the game as well as saving and exiting the game, heck even a bit of lag when scrolling through the main menu options. It's still at it's worst when it's night time and in villages. One thing I should add though is this is an almost brand new world with barely anything built by myself... I dare say that a blank world would be no better. Sucks that we haven't heard from anyone official to give us a heads up if they are even working on this issue cos I've not played the game since my first post. (It's impossible to play)

A lot of the lag issues are related to mob ai pathing, partially described at MCPE-28022

The lag was improved in beta 1.2.5.12 for me, however it is got worse again in 1.2.5.15.

It's not lag now but more choppy stuttering as I move about. It gets worse when writing to the HD or loading complex chunks. Instead of the screen dragging, it hops skipping frames to take me to the most current view.

I'm surprised this isn't fixed yet. It is really bad. From having my wife and kids regularly playing to now not at all since 1.2.3 on the Xbox One S. It has really killed the momentum started by the Bedrock update with us all on different device in the same world.
Is there a way to roll back to 1.2.2 or is an update imminent?
