@LoganTunes How do you mean? Like one large compilation of everything I've uploaded? I have a Minecraft Uncovered playlist that would fit that
Lemme tell you. As a skyblock player for almost 1.5 years, and been playing minecraft for 8, MCCI is the most fun i've ever had in Minecraft for over 2 years. It's so innovative, the currency is super cool, the games are super fun and addicting, and even though it's only 4 games rn, its way more fun than I thought it would be.
Don’t lie to yourself, skyblock isn’t fun, I play it, I just can’t stop, not because it’s fun, because of the addiction it causes to see numbers go up, you cannot escape
@@cruciality_ never said skyblock was fun lmao
this is a cry for help
oh hey xgame didnt expect you here (im t14s lol)
@@thandergd why are you here t14 💀
The best thing is that making servers like this was possible even 8 years ago but only now someone actually made first steps to do it
Yeah, there's definitely some new developments but the vast majority of what's being done today has always been possible; just goes to show how much room there is left for Minecraft to grow
Ah but there actually are servers that have continued to update to the newer versions, PvP Legacy started back in 2016, only over the past few years has it actually taken off.
@@B1ue_Bandit yeah but pvp legacy isn't close to being as detailed as mcc island. Pvp legacy is boring af you just kill, rinse, repeat
@@sebastianbrachealmonte901 that's the point it's a practice server
Finally, something new in multiplayer. Hypixel is long overdue to get some competition
so true.
Yes
All the cheaters hypixel has are going to cause it to fall if hypixel doesn't do something about it. And also cuz hypixel just isn't updating their gamemodes
@@yes-is5wf honeslty, atleast for me, i rarely get cheaters
@@_bop5209 I have literally never matched against a cheater
Honestly glad hypixel’s finally getting some competition, they’ve been so stagnant so long they really need it. Btw another big server you should maybe take a look into, origin realms, it’s pretty much a massive smp server that’s basically just a vanilla modpack at this point,custom mobs,blocks, emotes,super revolutionary stuff
Yes
what about wynncraft?
@@SunIsLost sup fellow pone
They were innovating more in 2013-2016 but yeah, less significant development even at the peak in 2020 with 2x-4x of peak 2015 players. New games are small arcade ones or half of them don't make it past prototype, though they keep ones old enough but can't come up with something like mega walls anymore. Also a lot of the older modes are hard to get into as a new player because how much skill and progression matters, since it's pretty much the older players playing them. Smash heroes and warlords are gonna be on the chopping block to be deleted next and I really hope it wouldn't happen
@@arttukettunen5757 Thats back when they had competition though
I hope Hypixel will start making good consistent updates now that they have actual competition.
they are working on hytale
@@o2bagimlisi I thought it was a different development team working on Hytale and not the development team on Hypixel also working on Hypixel.
@@Oiiink It is a different dev team, hypixel absolutely needs to fix up their server, fix the cheating problem, actually update bedwars and skywars by adding new items, new maps (not just cycling out old maps) and more new mechanics
@@oAstro. yeah they will die if they dont act soon
melon guy I remember you xd
"mega walls" is the most unique gamemode with the mist potential on Hypixel and unfortunately they aren't taking advantage of it. It's the game that rose Hypixel's popularity early on
Yeah I notice when I go on hypixel that there’s like millions of different gamemodes, but nobody talks about them… really wondering what’s up with that I don’t play hypixel very often tho I just like party games LOL
the walls is what got me on hypixel and I remember the day skywars came out like it was just yesterday...
honestly, mcc island has been the most fun i have had on minecraft since like 2019-2020. It might not seem like it if you havent played, but the gamemodes are so different from anything else you can find
As a fellow og hive bedrock grinder, thats honestly true
although on MCCI, I still feel that it can be partially revolutionary at least. If you take the server at a "how did they do that?" point of view, you might realize that they use really subtle mechanics, such as a fade to black, custom ui that feels non-vanilla, and also the coin and gem count about the health and hunger. Although everything i mentioned is just a different variation of the /title command, they use commands to their fullest extent to make everything about it really smooth and seamless, even in beta
Agree
Uh, the fade to black thing is a vanilla command on bedrock (not sure if its also in java)
@@dry4smash946 nope you require a custom font, unicode characters, and a title command on java
Multiplayer has changed a lot in Minecraft.
No shit sherlock
most innovate comment
this comment is like me when I have to write an english paper on somthing I know nothing about
Yep
Bro dropped the topic sentence
hypixel probably wont die anytime soon as i think most people think of it as a middle ground between competive and casual, example being how in bedwars someone whos team isnt as skilled as the others can still win as long as they get the other time while their guard is down. obv this wont be the case for insanely tryhard teams but you get the point.
Was waiting for a video about the new servers, I have been thinking about this for a while and I'm excited to see other opinions about competitiveness in MC multiplayer!!
Wynncraft is doing pretty good right now too, they just had a massive update that doubled their playercount
Yeah, I saw that actually, they are going crazy atm. I knew they had a sizeable community but 2,500 players?? That's like, 5x larger than the last time I checked, iirc
This really aged like fine milk, TubNet Dead and MCCI is losing everything...
i'm really hoping legacy combat servers can step up their game too and make the most of 1.8 everything is so stale now and the only thing worth playing is prac/duels because the gamemodes arent really much different from survival games back in 2013
Hypixel rn “finally, a worthy opponent our battle will be legendary!
indeed its battle with MCCI and TubNet for the top place would be fun to watch
it wont be a legendery battle, tubnet is going to just perish. even if u look in just twich stats(the main platform the creators are based on) the dream smp scene has decrased by a LOT. the toxic community around the dream SMP, the hatred towards its stans and much more will cause a flood of cheaters to exploit game mechanics. hypixel probs dont even care about it as they will just crush them as they crushed all other hyped servers in the past 8+ years
@@spoperty4940 Bro dont take it that seriously Hypixel will never die unlike Mineplex. They have a dedicated fan base that I was once part of before my PC died
@@OnurTheXbot i never said anything about hypixels death. why are u mentioning it??? are u dyslectic????
@@OnurTheXbot u didnt even read the comment
Tubnet and MCC Island are popular solely due to the amount of times it's being plugged by people's favorite youtubers, not necessarily due to their own merits. I haven't seen a good server since 2017
I don't know, I have heard literally nothing but praise for MCC Island from everyone I've seen that's played it, and Tubnet (though less finished) has been nice during their crystal rush previews!
I kind of agree with this but in like an inverse way. I think they’re only as popular cuz they’re getting plugged by KZheadrs, but that doesn’t mean they’re bad, just they’re the only servers lucky enough to have that. There’s probably plenty of servers that have just as good, if not higher, quality and fun in them, but it’s IMPOSSIBLE to get popular with big name servers like hypixel around. Hopefully with these other servers popping up with the help of KZheadrs, it will help more small servers grow in popularity cuz now everyone’s searching for “the next hypixel” or whatever lol. Or maybe you’ll still need to be a streamer to have ur server get popular. We’ll see I guess.
I'm not a big SMP player but I imagine that a huge draw of newer servers is that they can run the latest versions of Minecraft, while a lot of the old servers are stuck on really old versions from well over 5 years ago like 1.12 or 1.8 or even 1.7! 1.13 - 1.19 have added so much to the game that the older versions now feel obsolete rather than just a little behind. But since a lot of servers couldn't or didn't update with each release, they're now so behind that it's too late and updating would break everything...
Now, The thing is that the majority of hypixel players are on 1.8.9, and pvp based, and tubbonet is going to be 1.19+, because bedrock doesnt use the same combat mechanics. That would be the killer for me, causing me not to play
It's been confirmed bedrock players will only get in games with other bedrock players so the pvp and overall mechanics will probably stay the same.
@@ShadowRLX Alr thats good!
Bedrock doesn't have the new combat, Bedrock players playing with 1.8 java players would work fine
This aged well...
I don't play MC anymore but I've had some amazing times on Hypixel between 2014-2019. I hope Hytale becomes popular and Hypixel moves its focus to that game instead, so new Minecraft servers like Tubnet can become leading in Minecraft.
Quit minecraft about a year ago, all of my longtime online friends are in college now, and so am I. Still talk to them daily though, minecraft gameplay was getting quite dry anyway, I'm glad that there are other servers being created with high potential, maybe one day our group will all join minecraft again and we'll start on an entirely different server.
This aged well
i didn't even realise until you said it, but yes MCCI is def similar to Bedrock Servers like Cubecraft and Hive in particular.
When talking about creators, I think you missed a massive opportunity to talk about the SMP creator rush. People like Rekrap, Parrot, and Rasplin have been making lots of content on MCCI just showcasing how fun it is and they moved from skywars videos on Hypixel and are only growing. I didn't even know this server was a thing until one of the lifesteal members made a video on it because I haven't been keeping up with MCC much.
Yeah, I mentioned the huge growth and relevance of Lifesteal/SMP but perhaps missed the opportunity to explain that link
mcc island is what im excited for dont feel like tubnet will make it
origin realms is also a work in progress server that is going to make mod-like content very accessible to people who dont understand how modded works, all without having to download anything
One good server like this is Origin Realms. Even though it's only survival, there is so much content already and so much more being added (like the latest minecraft mob vote mobs)
I now hope this will actually happen. more competition means more unik games from both sides.
I hope you’re right in the best way possible.
For some reason I feel like the Content SMP can become massive one day.
From what I've seen, MCC island looks the most appealing to me but I'll stick with Hypixel because 1.19 combat is down bad.
fair, fair
1.19 is the Swamp update, 1.9 is the combat update.
@@darth3911 1.19 was the kinda coolish warden maybe decent update and 1.9 was the cancer causing degenerate update
imo 1.9+ combat and 1.8 combat are both a lot of fun, even tho I prefer 1.9+
@@Cat-jr8oe I just hate shields man.
As a tester Of MCCI The Gamemodes are well made, It feels completely Different from any Other Skyblock battle. And Ofc the textre brings new life to everything
Surprised there wasn't a mention of smp live web it came to the smp segment
I wish the future of Minecraft multiplayer never dies, but at least these new competitors are next in line.
Very interesting video and well scripted. Good job man!
Thanks so much, really appreciate it :)
one thing I don't think two Minecraft servers can hold the top spot when one server rises the other server growth will slow down. then the other sever will be destroyed like Mineplex .there can only be one. what do you think will get the top spot tubnet or mcc island
niether, mark my words hypixel will stay on top in the long run. a large majority of hypixels players are skyblock commited grinders who dont want to move on, in addition MccI and tubnet mainly share the dsmp toxic 10 year old stan base which will make the communitys extremely toxic making all non-10 year olds not appealed at all to the multi player aspect.

With hypixel's size you cant decide whether you should be formal or not, and every server is well connected at the start but when you have to manage a network that's too large like hypixel you can't really be well connected & work it and they started to pay more attention to it, and that's just the social media, not the discord servers, and with developer updates, it's happening every once in a while, in forums and the discord server and hypixel as the corp, not the staff has to be formal, but the admins talk directly and care, As for the geezer multi-platform support, it's very hard for a network as extensive as hypixel to recode EVERYTHING to fit well with bedrock and you should remember, hypixel's back end is 1.7.9. At the same time, the tubnet is higher, and it's not as easy for hypixel to make games based on other games. Tbh I'm not hating on tubnet, in fact, I'm hoping for it to succeed because hypixel is being too comfy on its throne, it should have a bit of a challenge, so we MC players are the one who is going to benefit as competition makes both servers better.
Also, hypixel is putting huge resources of devs artists etc on hytale.
Never even heard of tubnet
love to see hypixel finnaly getting some healthy competition
I think these servers sound to good to be true normally servers like this are normally filled with bugs and the server dies in around a few months after release
The only huge issue with tubnet is that it will have a horrible anticheat. If it stays as a cross play then the issue is that bedrock players have higher reach, bigger hitboxes and strange movement that can make standing on an ender chest flag fly somehow. The anti-cheat will we worse than hypixels and players may rage as the hacker count grows. Even if there is somehow separate anticheats for java and bedrock java clients can override that by sending packets (info example: breaking a block) and send a packet saying they are on bedrock completely giving access to bad bypasses.
What about SMP live? I thought that was one of the ones that repopularized minecraft
Just wondering, how do you get that insanely cool motion blur? Do you just recording in high fps then frame blend or do you use another method?
Yeah, I record in 240fps and resample down to 60fps :)
@@mcbyt cool thanks
I have been trying to run a server called lorecraft on my network the legit network and I spent literally weeks making the servers and advertising them but NOBODY cared which really hurt. I will continue trying though because it isn’t a bad network it’s just nobody cares. I only don’t try to monetize the server in any way I just want it to be a fun server
I just want to see if hypixel ss and the rise client devs will really be able to burn tubnet to the ground once it’s released
Lol true
tubnet trash hypixel best
The hard part isn't doing it right, the hardest thing is getting to keep the same nice server for years and years
I cant wait till they go public (hopefully)! I love multiplayer, ive always played with my brother on xbox when I was younger and had noone to play with except him. Now that he's in college he cant spend the even little time we had before to play with me anymore. So i've been really enjoying playing on smps with freinds and taking a break from that and hopping on hypixel. I usually only play Bedwars cause thats what im best at and enjoy the most, even though I havent played that much. I also don't watch Tubbo/dsmp so I never knew TubNet existed! I'll definitely look more into it :)
pls dont look more in to dsmp. its just a 11 year old hyper toxic community with dumb dumb kids

I recently just bought the official minecraft because I wanted to try Hypixel. I have realised that the player count was was lower compared to when I watched streamers play before.
This is not competition for hypixel, 1.8 pvp and 1.12+ pvp are so far apart that you cannot compare the two, they're basically two different games at this point and have two different communities. Also we've yet to see how these new servers are going to handle the waves of hackers and bots that will inevitably come after the full release or whatever
Hypixel literally averages 100k in peak hours and it has a whole different audience (1.8) while MCCI and Tubnet have 1.19
It used to, but Hypixel hasn't hit 100k since February. Recent peaks are at about 65k with lows of about 20k.
@@mcbyt covid made a huge play on basically every servers playercount. a bit disingenuous of you to not make note of that.
I do think hypixel player count is going down, but it is not dying. the pandemic numbers will never happen again, and I think one way or another hypixel will stay on top.
lol and now a year after this video MCCI is abt 600, tubnet is completely dead, and hypixel still going strong
Yay new upload
Bwahoo
so i dont hate mcci and tubnet but they just feel like they dont really have the java vibe to it they feel kinda bedrock-ish for me, hypixel is probably gonna stay on top for time to come
Can you make a media fire version of your pack I cant use the .7z
It’s also something to consider that all these things you said are doing good today (tubnet, mcc island) will die in coming years and something else will take its place
you gave Tubnet too much time
tubnet went absolutely nowhere
Cool video! Sky battle is already pretty sweaty btw
Thank you! And yeah, Skywars is always the first to go
the thing the i like the most about hypixel is the 1.8 compabilty, cus all these new servers have 1.9 combat which many players dont like. and if you try do bring 1.8 combat gamemodes to 1.9 combat some wouldnt be fun any more and if you want them to be fun they would need a lot of rework like the hypixel pit
Funny how both 1.9 and 1.19.1 are both controversial updates, makes one wonder what’s to come in 1.29.
1.8 has decent combat but when we are more than 10 updates ahead it makes hypixel extremely lacking and it just feels like it needs to move on.
The hatred for 1.9 combat has been dying, especially because of MCC the last few years making people realize it isn’t as awful as all of the KZheadrs made it out to be. The niche group of people who only play on 1.8 servers is quickly dying. New servers that stick with 1.8 are only going to confuse new players who don’t understand why the entire way fighting works is different, which will deter people from playing. Servers should and need to embrace 1.9 combat.
@@technoboop1890 Especially sense there are in game commands that nullify the main complaint about the 1.9. Combat update. That being the slower combat speed; this can be fixed by either using custom weapons with there own unique attack speeds. Funny thing is if commands are to high tech there are other ways to fix the problem, such as applying haste 2 on all players.
Honestly, I feel like 1.9+ combat is actually better than 1.8. Change my mind.
I was a housing addict from 2019-2021 but the quality/quantity just isn’t there anymore.
3:55 I was drawing Wilbur Soot and I had a reference picture of him open in another window while watching/listening to this video and then I look at my computer screen and see the exact image of him that I was using as a reference lmao.
I'm a sky block player since it was released and I play Minecraft for 8-9 years and I can tell you, hypixel is still alive, but not as close to what it used to be. It's fun when they show different game modes for us to play, but they are dying slowly. Last week I wanted to play warlords with my friends but there was 0 players on queue... Skyblock is still good, but it looks like they are trying to kill it, lol. Things are a bit weird with hypixel. I will test the other two new servers, they look fun (when they get released).
I mean Tubnet will be more popular than hypixel for at most a few weeks but it will only be a few weeks if it’s just pvp mini games as you could play similar games on hypixel, if they could start custom modes that arnt bedwars spin offs I can see it being a decent rival to hypixel player wise due to cross platform helping with player count
@@dertroller8793 Tubnet will have at the minimum around hives player count due to it being crossplay however you can’t just uproot a server older than most the people that would be playing tubnet as much as I’d love Tubnet to be more popular or even close to as popular to hypixel i just cannot really see it happening for a while
tbh, from the tubnet tests that i've played, it's just overhyped. there's nothing special in the first 2 games. The games are basic and are disguised by the amazing resource pack if hypixel is getting competition, it's probably going to come from MCCI, haven't played it yet, but it looks pretty fun
Honestly, it will probably take quite a while till Tubnet or MCCI grow more popularity than Hypixel since most mc players get addicted to Hypixel's games and cuz Tubnet is in closed beta and that also goes for MCC island. As said it probably will take quite a while, but when Tubnet releases full beta, It is likely going to surpass Hypixel (In my opinion).
bathtub network aint gonna do anything to hypixel
Public life steal will never work bc people are to op so you would have to reset it every week or so
I really love to hear that minecraft is not dying. Minecraft is hands down the best game in my opinion and made my childhood so much fun
Watching this a year later, your predictions were kinda right, with hoplite taking over the Minecraft community for a month so far
Eh, not really. Hypixel is still a dying server, but Minecraft in general is dying. Hypixel is still the most played server. There legitimately are still no servers that even come close to Hypixel's player count, even though the player count is almost an 1/8 of what it was back in 2021. Even Hoplite is barely getting 1,000 players, which is barley 2.5% of Hypixel's players.
It's about time
i believe tubnet and mcc island are going to be the next 2 big servers just like hypixel and mineplex were with mcc being the more competitive one and tubnet the more casual one. public SMPs will never succeed because of trolls hackers and a-holes. but i would love to see some more p2w game without the p2w aspects, stuff like prison or skyblock, i believe there is a big market for these type of servers but the main thing that ruins them is the fact that you can pay up to thousands of dollars to get unfair advantages.
tubnet and MCCI will die very quick. i have a ton of stuff to say about it, so if u want to have a convo react to this message with whatever youd like to
i was right
How long is the wait for MCC Island? I’ve been waiting for 4 1/2 years

It might be a great opportunity. similar to technoblade (rest in peace) how he got popular with hypixel starting out and their new gamemode at the time "bed wars". we might see a newer generation of streamers after tubbo, tommyinnit, dream etc from MMCI

Very underrated youtuber. You deserve more subscribers!!!
Thanks so much! Really appreciate the praise :)
Crystal rush looks very VERY simlar to minigames from a czech minecraft server QPlay ( MiniAni, Crystals )
I think hipixel games other than skybock and hipixel are actually diying but personally Having been playing for almost 4 years. I have never seen lobby’s fill up faster on bedwars faster. I do however agree with the fact multiplayer I returning to save Minecraft multiplayer
Sick video as always
i really wish there were ways for smaller / new servers to get players now without needing youtubers
Yaysauce! Sauceyay!
Novelty is the main reason rn. Who knows if they can keep their player base tho
Competition is always good
“imagine a public lifesteal server” well well well
Why doesn't this man have 100k yet
i swear than im gonna die if i see someone creating another "life steal smp anarchy super smp premuim"
competition will be good becauase i think its the push hypixel needs to... do something
I don't think hypixel will ever truly die (like mineplex), judging by the player counts being so consistently large almost all the time. I do agree it will likely shrink as a server throughout the next few years, but I also think it's a lot more simple than TubNet and MCCI because it has a lot of games everyone's familiar with, which might help it stay alive.
L paragraph comment
i miss hypixel’s reign alrdy 😢
I really love tubnet but it’s really hard to get in a game lately
I wish mc nations was more popular. Right now it stands as sort of a player v player game. Essentially you gather resources to get more gear which you use to attack neighboring teams town’s or capitals. It’s a mass player v player fight with a bunch of strategy involved. Maybe it’d be another good example like MCC Island or Tubnet. I don’t see any other servers going the same route as them with this war esk gameplay, and I find it really creative and unique.
Not really new either, Nationsglory is a French server doing it for about a decade now
