Building on top of the nether

Currently in Minecraft bedrock edition if you break through to the top of the nether you cannot build on top of the bedrock. You should be able to build on top of the nether.

    It used to work and it was a cool way to have a nether base. You could even add surface structures in nether and ghasts at top.

    Remember that you're not supposed to get on the bedrock layer in the first place, and that its a bug. I dont think mojang will update a bug, let along add features to it. Still a good idea tho, i voted

    Definitely! Even though you can’t get up there in Survival without exploiting bugs, you could do a lot in Creative.

    It's been in minecraft for so long, it's a part of the game in java, to remove it would be to take out part of the game itself, it really should be a thing in bedrock.
    If they really hated bugs they could add an offical method to get up, or only have it that way for creative builders, because again it's a perfect flat space for creative mode.

    This would add more parity to Java!

    This is a parity change that should be addressed in the nether update!

    Part of what makes this a big issue is that *if* you glitch through the bedrock without destroying it and end up on top of the Nether, you have no way of getting back down or back to the overworld, except maybe getting lucky with chorus fruit. Otherwise, you just have to starve to death and lose everything in your inventory.

    I agree!

    Even though getting there in survival without exploiting bugs is impossible, getting there in creative will always be possible. Furthermore, testing nether-only projects in the nether roof is much easier, as it is a plain area, and with the new despawn mechanics it would make efficient nether mob farms easier to build. It would also be a parity change, and regarding 1.16 will be a nether update and a parity update as well, this could be a parity change.

    I agree, for the longest time java has been allowed to build on top of the nether making alot of very simple farms to be possible. With the addition of building on the nether we can use this as a new opportunity for farms and even high speed travel.

    If we really want parity, we need this

    This is a bug so old Thad became a feature. There are several of these, specially in Java Redstone. I understand That they don't want to intentionally add a bug to the game, but this is something that the community wanted for so much time. (still, don't bug bedrock Redstone pls)

    If java can build on top of the nether, why shouldn’t we? Give us one good reason why not or add this in the game

    My BIGGEST gripe is punishing Bedrock players while allowing JAVA to do this. Most of the quality content I come across on YOUTUBE making me want to play, only to find out I CANT because I play BEDROCK. The majority of players from states I've seen play on bedrock, its available on every console including pc. Yet not enough effort is being put into parity. I understand the fundamental difference between the two, and have accepted having to trial and error my redstone. But this is a simple fix and to disable it for ONLY BEDROCK shows favoritism.

    I'm much rather they put something above the nether, and have a structure be the entrance/ exit between upper and lower nether. Everyone is going to find a way above or way to break bedrock. Rather than punishing players, there should be content to discourage sequence breaking.

     

    Maybe Upper is ice theme, since lower if fire? You get the fire and ice combo going on.

    Glitching through the bedrock was marked as a feature in Java, so I would think it should be in bedrock as well. I really hope we are able to build on the nether roof in Bedrock 1.16.

    Without a doubt. Java edition has it! We can't build simple gold farms, hoglin farms, or almost anything in the nether.

    Bedrock players should have access to this. There’s so much cool stuff you can make on the nether roof.

    I bought minecraft bedrock because of what they do in the hermitcraft series. I don't have a PC so I can't play java and I would love to build some of the farms that those guys do.

    I would love to have closer parity to java that way, I was disappointed I can't play that game the way I wanted to.

    If mojang adds building in the nether it would be the same as building in the nether ceiling for java edition

    This feature should be added as its already in java edition and they should add it in as they are working on the nether update they might as well add this feature for parity.

    Since we are doing the nether update might as well do this right?

    Please add this feature in. There's no real excuse to block building on the nether roof. It's common in Java. There are way too many differences between the versions (collecting mob heads, building certain farms, etc), we need parity

    The nether roof should be able to build on. Otherwise you have to clear out a bunch of space and spawn proof 124x124 blocks just for a simple starter hoglin farm. The nether update is of no use if we cant use its features.
