(crossposted from Suggestions forum, share your thoughts):
I almost exclusively play TO4 Egg Wars, but several of these issues persist across all egg wars or the server in general. Some MIGHT be Minecraft or Bedrock as a whole issues, I don't know the technical details:
-default kit selection
if I fail to pick a kit in time, or WORSE, when I'm thrown into the match with only a couple seconds before it begins and am not given the time to do so, it should assign you a kit; whether you pre-select a default, or there's a default set by cubecraft, ANYTHING is better than starting with nothing, which isn't fair.
-disable attack command opening shop AND generator menus
both place-block and attack commands open the shop, this is both unnecessary to have multiple means of doing so, and has the side effect of ruining fights when the latter button will trigger a shop menu as the fight gets too close to the shopkeep or a generator.
-faster shop menus
they're VERY slow, at least on XB1, but i suspect most or all platforms. navigating them is not at all snappy for something so apparently 'simple'. it's bewildering. they're even slower the first time you open them in a session. (same with inventory)
-bulk purchases in shop
having to re-navigate the menu to buy multiples of the same item is horrendously slow. there should be bulk buying (steaks, golden apples, obsidian are big culprits) without the menu resetting each time. even allowing the highlighted selection to remain on the same item after each purchase would be a HUGE improvement.
-back / up level function in shop menus
not being able to go back a step in the menu but having to exit entirely and reopen it (esp with the slow menus, see above) is extra pain that slows down the gameplay and leaves you vulnerable for a really lame and unfortunate reason
-chat messages by player show team color
we should see which team the player is on, it would facilitate MUCH better team communication and match communication amongst all players. It is currently grey for everyone and nothing distinguishes which side a player is on and if someone chatting is talking to YOU or their own team.
-better cheat detection
goes without saying - flyers are in every 3 matches in my experiences, along with rapid attackers and other buffs
-kick function?
not sure if this would backfire in some way, but being able to vote to kick the cheater would be an excellent way of putting the control into players hands to immediately snuff out the cheater
-in-game reporting
reporting a player for cheating with some easy in-game function, even if you came back later with the video evidence, would be nice.
-option to separate out mobile players from matches
this would remove a lot of the cheaters and problem players, in my experience. most of them being 0/low gamerscore mobile players
I probably have more suggestions but I wrote these off the top of my head
