Update 1.16.100 broke the game for me and it looks like thousands of other players yet nothing has been done to fix it. 1.16.40 ran fine on my Fire HD 10, I don't understand why the update wasn't rolled back to that one instead of forcing us to wait weeks for a fix that may not even work. I already made a comment on this bug report, but I really can not emphasize enough that Minecraft as it is currently released is UNPLAYABLE for me. I have died so many times due to lag and mobs killing me that I can not see or walking into a chunk that won't load and falling down a ravine or into lava. This is so very frustrating and I'm tired of being patient.

So many problems to list, I'm trying to remember them all:

Chunks don't load or take extremely long time to load. I have my chunk rendering set to 9, setting it lower makes no difference. I have been trying to explore an ocean monument but it's impossible when I can't see what's around me.

Mobs are invisible or appearing where they are not actually there. Either a mob will be hitting me and I can't see them or a mob will appear frozen in place and I can't hit it or interact with it in any way but still hear sounds in a different direction.

Opening up the inventory or chests will cause the loading bars to pop up and my game will freeze and crash or I have to force close it from the app menu.

Picking up experience orbs: Most mobs drop 3 orbs and I'm only picking up 1 or 2 (usually 2) leaving the other one to follow me around. If I am in water, it gets even worse. I have had 4-6 orbs following me around obstructing my vision. This has led to unnecessary deaths more than once.

Sounds being delayed. I will hit a mob or open a chest and not hear the sound til a couple seconds later.

Block updates, especially with gravity blocks, take a long time to update, with a black cube taking the place of sand and gravel I mined until it finishes updating. Sometimes just half a second, but sometimes taking 1-2 seconds to update. When breaking a lot of blocks with an Efficiency shovel, this creates a ton of lag. Also, sometimes I will break blocks and I hear the sound of the block breaking and am picking up the item but it still shows as being on my screen. I can walk into where the block was and it looks like I'm standing inside of a block but it's not really there.

I play just regular Vanilla Minecraft with no texture packs, no mods, nothing other than what I downloaded from Amazon Store. When this lag started with 1.16.100, I figured it would be fixed within a few days since 1.16.40 worked so well, but it's been going on 3 weeks now and I am getting burned out and no longer enjoying playing Minecraft. I can't download beta updates on Fire HD 10. Please push the fix out as soon as possible or rollback to 1.16.40 so I and others can enjoy the game again. Thank you.

Hello, I didn't want to create a new bug report as I figured other people are having the same problem as me so I am C&P my comment I left on another report about this issue with the new update.

I just want to confirm that I am having the exact same issues since the last update 1.16.100. I play on a Fire HD 10 tablet and the new update has made the game just about unplayable. Chunks are taking FOREVER to load, in some cases they literally don't load at all, I stand in what looks like the void but I'm standing on blocks but can't tell what they are or if there could be a ravine in front of me or not.

There is also a lot of lag with actions such as mobs moving around. I will see a mob in a spot but when I go to attack it, it's not there. I had this happen with a blaze where it was still attacking me and shooting me with fire but I could not attack where it was because it was showing up in a different spot. I have died multiple times while loading the game up because it's been taking between 1-5 minutes and I have either died due to mobs (where I should have been safe) or one time it looked like I clipped into the ground and suffocated I'm not sure.

Before this update, my game ran relatively smoothly. The Fire HD 10 is not super fast compared to playing on a desktop PC but I kept my chunk loading to around 9 and rarely experienced any lag and if I did it was just for a few seconds or when a lot of items were on the ground etc. Now it doesn't matter what I'm doing, it's just non-stop lag. I have been trying to gear up for the ender dragon fight and I fear I'm going to die due to lag or try to hit the dragon where I think it is and it end up being somewhere else and killing me. Please fix this update for Fire OS users. I know there's probably a small amount of us compared to the rest of the Bedrock community but I really like playing this game and can't afford the desktop version at this time.
