Minecraft Pocket Edition 0.9.0 certainly took a while to be released, and even longer to release five bug fix updates. But 0.10.0 is already in development, and Mojang is aiming for smaller, faster updates. Johan, one of the main Pocket Edition developers, posted this on Twitter:
Restructuring code won't necessarily help performance, but if OpenGL ES 2.0 is included in the update it could help. And before you ask - no, OpenGL ES 2.0 won't make your old device run infinite worlds any better.
Johan also revealed some additional information about the update. When asked if he had an estimated date for the release, he said:
And finally, one of the biggest features remaining to be added to Minecraft Pocket Edition is Redstone. We finally have an estimated date on that, but it's not anytime soon:
So maybe in a MCPE 0.11.0 or 0.12.0 update. Or maybe by then they will call it 1.0, who knows? See the source link for the original tweet.

This week, I'm working on restructuring some of the code. Will in the long run reduce the number of bugs by a lot. This is also the first step for 0.10.0 and next week I will start working on skins.

Not yet but within a couple of months is the goal. Difficult to say when we depend on external services for a release.
And finally, one of the biggest features remaining to be added to Minecraft Pocket Edition is Redstone. We finally have an estimated date on that, but it's not anytime soon:
We have a few other things that need to be implemented for redstone to work but I'm hoping for the first half 2015.

ReplyDeleteCan't wait.
ReplyDeleteI discovered a bug, Water doesn't push dropped itrms
ReplyDeleteThere is a serious bug on iOS 6. Whenever the "20% battery" alert, multitasking menu, or any other alert or menu pops up, the game completely and entirely freezes. The sounds still work, but you can't move, mine, or even open the pause menu. Please let Mojang know about this, as it severely cuts gameplay time.
ReplyDelete0.10.0 in a couple months! I'm very excited!!!
ReplyDeleteThat's why I got ios 7 ;)
ReplyDeleteIt's on iOS 7 too. When I open control center it does that.
ReplyDeleteI saw this starting with 0.9.5 and I fix it by switching away to another app and coming right back.
ReplyDeleteDo you know how to fix it? It's extremely annoying and it reduces my play time by about an hour
ReplyDeleteIt crashes when I switch apps and return
ReplyDeleteI wish :(
ReplyDeleteYep, I tested it. Weird, I didn't notice it in 0.9.0. But that's it for me
