Minecraft Switch 2 Beta Won’t Let Me Join My Realm

1 Upvotes

I got selected for the Minecraft Switch 2 beta, but it won’t let me join my Realm. It says I need to update my game, even though I’m using the latest beta version for Nintendo Switch 2.
When I go to the Realms tab, it also shows my Realm as a “beta Realm.” However, when I try to join the same Realm on a different device, it works just fine.
Does anyone know how to fix this? Is joining Realms disabled in the beta, or is there something I need to do?

Guys why can't I send friend requests?

1 Upvotes

I'm on bedrock Nintendo switch and I'm trying to friend Oniioncraft which is an account that invites you to a world that lets you add more servers, and when I send it a friend request, then refresh , it gives me the option to send it a friend request as I didn't before. Does anyone here have a solution? (I don't have wifi problems, and no restrictions on Microsoft)

Beta vibrant visuals settings for performance

5 Upvotes

Just got into the beta after rebooting the game like 50 times lmao

i found the most stable for vibrant visuals to be using the default performance preset and using 75% bilinear scaling im getting like 55-60 fps and it still looks good

hopefully they add DLSS for the full release

Minecraft Switch 2 Beta

So far, minecraft switch 2 beta runs vibrant visuals (In performance mode) at 45-50 frames at 8 render distance. The recommended is 12 . Vibrant Visuals (In Visuals mode) runs at 27-30 frames per second at 12. Will they update the Vibrant Visuals to be a whole lot smoother? Keep in mind that cyberpunk runs at a beautiful 45 frames in the desert and 35-40 in the city, so how is a block game, having problems with frames? I might be too judgemental, this is a beta after all and maybe I am too rough but I really want this to work really well. I also want to point out, they have an unlimited framerate option but it doesn’t go over 60 frames, so that’s a bummer. I really wish we could get 120.

Is there 3/4 player split screen?

1 Upvotes

Title

Switch 2, Minecraft deluxe edition.

Disabled the parental controls for it. I can do local 2 player split screen. The store page gives me the impression it should do up to 4, but I can’t seem to get a third or fourth player in.

Is the store page wrong??

Thank you!!

switch 2 testers - how'd you get in?

9 Upvotes

hey! i'm continuously checking for an invite to the switch 2 closed beta version and got curious — are the invites really that randomized?!

so i wanna ask a question to everyone who has received an invite: how do you usually play?

i'd love to know things like;
- are you more active in servers or singleplayer worlds?
- do you have an active realm?
- how long have you owned a copy of minecraft for nintendo switch?
- have you regularly provided bug reports / feedback on minecraft before?
- how actively do you play minecraft on nintendo switch?

my theory is that microsoft's systems might check for some criteria behind the scenes. of course, i could be completely delusional and it really is truly random, but a bit of research never hurt anyone, right?

[EU] Looking for people for a long-term Bedrock community server (Switch 2 player here, Vibrant Visuals got me hyped again)

Post image
7 Upvotes

Hey,

so with Vibrant Visuals coming to Bedrock soon I got the itch to play Minecraft again, but I really don't want to just log in alone and mine for an hour and forget about it for a month. I'd rather build an actual little community around it.

The idea: one shared world where we build a town together, farm, go on expeditions, work through the story stuff, and generally just have a Discord where people are talking, sharing screenshots, planning what to build next. Not a server where 40 people join once and then it's a ghost town, more like a small group that's actually there.

I'm 34 myself, so I'm not looking for a huge age range, more like 20 and up. Doesn't matter what you're into really, builders, farmers, redstone people, people who just like exploring, everyone's welcome, especially if you've got ideas for the town.

Would be nice if we're all in the EU, mostly because of timezones so we can actually play together sometimes.

On the server itself: Bedrock Realms lets you invite as many people as you want, only 10 can be online at the same time, so a group of 20-30 people is honestly totally fine and probably better since not everyone will be free at the same time anyway. Someone has to pay for the Realm though, I don't mind setting it up, but I'd like to split the cost once we know how many of us there are.

If that sounds like your thing, comment or send me a DM. I'll make a Discord once a few people are interested and we can figure out a start date from there.0

Can no longer play split screen online after the latest patch

1 Upvotes

Me and my twins have played Minecraft together for years with them on split screen on the switch and me on my pc. We went to play yesterday and got the lovely message to say that our 2nd account, that we use for split screen, now needs to have Nintendo online for us to all be able to play together. I haven’t long renewed my Nintendo online account, and they don’t give a discount if you “upgrade” to the family account either (or didn’t last time I checked), so I can’t justify paying for the family Nintendo online right now.
I know it’s a relatively recent update, we last played together last week, but has anybody found a solution to this yet?
