I'm assuming since updates don't come very often this could be awhile. I'm new to Minecraft bug reporting, but is there any expectation that anyone from Mojang will address or acknowledge the issue? It will definitely put the game back on the shelf until it's fixed.
My concern is if they all start playing in the "new" profile, and mojang fixes this, then what? Will they go back to their original? Which profile will take precedent?
Is it just me or is this a bigger deal than it's being made? As of 1.16.210 the game is no longer usable in many instances. My son, daughter, and I have been playing in a world together for a while and now simply cannot. We tested several circumstances and from what I can tell the game is seeing a different XUID if you're player 1 vs any other player.
Player 1 - regardless of who signs in has all inventory and levels are as expected.
Player 2 - regardless of who signs in has no inventory or levels.
If player 2 plays for a period of time and signs out, they come back as player 2 they will be just as they were when they signed out. If that same player signs in as the main user (player 1), they revert back to how it was a few days ago. Somehow the game is seeing the xbox user as a different player depending on if they are the main sign on or a secondary player. Although the server is definitely seeing the XUID as teh same regardless of player 1 or player 2.
We tried jumping from high place and respawning, setting respawn points, etc. the profiles still save independent of each other depending on which player you are.
The only workaround we can see is to have each player sign in as the main one, move everything to a chest, and from here on out one person is dedicated as the 1st player to sign in. Which stinks because the server has been great to play independently of each other.
A couple things I find a little confusing:
1- Some have reported this happening on Realms. If this is a Realms issue doesn't it completely defeat the entire purpose of realms? If I was on Realms I'd be demanding my money back immediately. Not just for this month, but for any month I paid. Not far fetched considering all progress from the past was also lost.
2- How is this still not gotten any response from anyone include a moderator of the forum. Is this isolated or 100% reproduceable?
3- Why is it merged with a similar thread when this is obviously a bug from the new release?
From my perspective this ruins the way a lot of people play the game. I'm shocked there isn't a bigger uproar.
