      Essentially with the last update I’m sure you’re aware, the Keyboard and Mouse support was changed. The cursor itself in game being a more pixelated version, as opposed to the “Microsoft edge” mouse cursor before on Xbox versions.

       

      and for some reason the way the keyboard interacts with the typing interface on console has been completely broken. I can still click the T or / Keys to open the chat for text and commands respectively. But now if I were to press either key and begin typing nothing happens. If I press enter, the Xbox integrated typing pop up appears, and then to make it even worse, if I type into the box, it will appear in the text box, but clicking enter again only results in the Xbox typing box to appear again, requiring me to move my cursor to the speech bubble to type or use commands.

       

      this is a far cry from the previous ease of access before the update. Not only was the Microsoft edge cursor more responsive and smooth. Compared to the current pixelated mouse, this new mouse is incredibly low FPS  and feels inaccurate.

      And in terms of the previous typing system all I had to do was click T or /, it. Brought up the typing menu either with nothing, or a /, just like on Java, and then I could begin typing, and enter would instantly send the text, just like Java. 

      I really just hope you guys refine this better to make it much more like the way it used to be, or at least like Java, because I literally cannot play with my keyboard and mouse on Xbox anymore.

      I know I probably didn’t explain it very well but if you boot up Minecraft on the Xbox series x version I’m sure you’ll instantly see what I’m talking about.

      also please add the ability to switch between the integrated mouse (Microsoft edge) and the pixelated Minecraft mouse. It would be a great thing for KBM players on Xbox.

       

      PS, I just took a video of it, but the Xbox typing pop up doesn’t appear in recorded game footage.
