Sure
second lol
I'll add some notes that has been misunderstood in this video:
- The Hive had 61k players on their Bedrock server
- As well as CubeCraft having 52k
- Minetrack Bedrock has an inaccurate information with the playercount record since it's playercount records has been reset.
Great video:)
Minecraft not that fun anymore Idk is it because of nostalgia or not
Being inside of empty video game servers always feels uncanny and depressing. Just knowing that there were once thousands of players roaming the servers just for them to be empty now is really sad.
Yeah, it definitely gives off an eerie vibe.
It’s like a husk, walking dead whilst still retaining what used to be.
Yeah. Like looking at your grandparents who cannot do much anymore
Just like LifeBoat, back in 2015
It’s like liminal spaces but for minecraft
I remember when I duped on jerry and harrys server, made a massive stash deep underground which would be impossible to find, then a guy (who most definetly had xray) accidentally found it, distributed in the most obvious way possible, and got us banned looolll
Hi the horizon
Lol hello
I still play annihilation on shotbow frequently. I am friends with some past devs for the mode and know a few admins as well (myself and my clan in the game would spend our days hunting for bugs then showing them to staff, so we interacted with them a lot). The server has an interesting history, in addition to having a smaller player base now, and a generally younger demographic, the server merged their Americas, Europe, and Asia servers all onto the America one a few years ago. The result of this is that the language the players talk in chat changes depending on time of day.
It is such a shame they didn't put the gas on annihilation earlier. Instead MineZ was getting all the updates... Just imagine if Technoblade made a video over anni. It would have blown up. Such a shame. RIP Technoblade

I think you should have mentioned that cubecraft didnt just update to 1.9. They actually split their server into a 1.8 and 1.9 section. Meaning players who joined with 1.8 could play 1.8 with others while players joining newer versions would play 1.9. I think this is a really interesting approach that not any other server really tried. The 1.8 version was shut down a few years ago though due to lack of popularity.
Also the amount of cheaters on 1.8 was just unimaginable. I feel like they didn’t really keep an eye out on 1.8.
@@wesleygamingnl4872 trur I was gonna say that but I didnt want my comment to be too long.
when 1.9 came out it was 1.9 only and they didn't support 1.8 again till 2 years later which is when there was the split you're currently talking about.
Hold on, people are acting like the finished the video Four minutes after it was posted? That's some fast media consumption.

4x speed am i right
You gotta love generic copy-pasted comments!

Really shows how much things have changed, how popular can really fade (some of these I never heard of)
damm
Yeah true I remember this really popular server called Minteria that got taken down because Moderators were abusing their powers and banning tons of people for no reason the only way to get unbanned was to buy a rank I was one of those people who got banned after a while the Moderators became racist and the server owner shut it down in the finally 24hrs of the servers life I had a new MC account because of my new laptop and i was the only one on besides the Owner who me and him had a chat about what happened then we played some minigames and then it shut down.
@@AverageKaijuGamerdamn bro u really witnessed the death of it or rather the end of it
Ex-moderator of McPvP/McBrawl here, so thankful you talked about us! Yes this specific server formally ended, but game modes pioneered by it most surely haven't! Here's a rundown of the current state of some of them if anyone is interested:
HG: Germany and Brazil kept it going, Germany lasted up to around 2020 with PvP Dojo, Brazil still has it going strong and sees thousands of unique players.
CTF: had players playing daily up until the very end of McBrawl, at that point one one the developers took upon themselves to re-code it again and later open-source it. (We actually had the first test today! 2023-08-20, lots of bugs, but that's normal given it's being made from the ground up).
Sabotage: never died, Brazilian community kept it going till today, the Acorn server (English speaking) is also re-doing the gamemode and should be playable in some time.
KitPvP: BadBoyHalo acquired it for his server (MunchyMC), and it's still going.
Headshot: some smaller servers picked it up, but there's not much demand anymore.
McWar: MisterEpic actually talked about this one more as of recent, given Mojangs stance on guns, also came from our network and the current developer came from McBrawl if I'm not mistaken.
Your server was the best I remember playing it or logging in twice every day to play it was so fun.
Hey man! McPvp was absolutely my favorite server particular HG. I've been out of it for a while due to life and all, but do you have any recommendations for current HG servers? Would really appreciate it!
pvpdojo is still open actually
didn't McBrawl also own a minigames server too? i forget what it was called, mc-party or something??
mcpvp felt like a part of my life when i was growing up. thank you for sharing this :)
The hive and cube craft are chilling on bedrock, both are amazing as one specialises in pro pvp while the other focuses on games to play with friends, leaving both servers VERY popular and in general, good and popular experiences
both servers have pvp and non pvp related gamemodes. cubecraft has a better party and friend system and way more games to play while hive is much more competitive and popular on youtube and twitch
I miss the hive in the Java edition I don't like bedrock much it's buggy
J&H was a literal nostalgia trip, pretty sad that they turned the channel to build battle 24/7 and then quit
they also just put uninspired "minecraft vs real life" videos on the second channel. I loved their creative build series, and I was never able to figure out mods or the name "world edit" until my middle school years.
I remember playing on Jerry and Harry's server the day they launched it. Even ended up meeting them and talking a little since they were going around and checking out what people were building near spawn in those first hours. Definitely a fun memory for (what I think would be) 11 year old me at the time.
Really shows how impressive it is for the few servers that are still up and running and has been for the last 10 years or so. Wynncraft and Hypixel are basically the only ones that survived on Java edition
Wynncraft is basically a whole ass game by itself
I remember as a kid playing all of these with my friends, and even some servers that Ive forgotten the names of but remember playing. It's sad to see all of them slowly die as minecraft became a very obscure game as mojang wouldn't really try and update it
wynncraft is still alive?
@@syfj. hell yea. and it's better than ever!!!!!!
cubecraft is still alive. just not as popular
Great video, I was a little disappointed though to see that it wasn’t mentioned how Cubecraft recently removed all of their unique and interesting gamemodes making them just another generic server with gamemodes you can play anywhere else. My personal favorite was tower defense, it was one of a kind as a both co-op and versus team based tower defense. I have yet to find any game that exists, on minecraft or otherwise, which is similar. I still don’t understand why they shut down those extra gamemodes. It couldn’t have cost them that much to keep it going if the whole server was staying up regardless.
I REALLY miss blockdrop 😢
fr where is the tower wars :/
this so true they removed most of the fun gamemodes like, Assasination, Duels, Mineware and the experimental gamemodes. They where really what kept me coming back, i even grinded onto some leaderboards. Now i really only would play parkour, but i can just do that on any parkour server.
Apparently they DID shut down the modes due to costing more and threatened to shut down the server if it declined much further. And the remaining modes have smaller map pools too. The latest development they had was updating to 1.19, so idk much about the server now since I used to play lucky islands there like 2 years ago in 1.12, but the server still exists.
But fr can someone tell me if there is a server that is active and has the game where you jump into water and it leaves a block behind and you get more points for landing next to blocks? I have so much nostalgia for that one
I played Hive Java all the way back in 2013 and played it up until it closed. Super fond memories.
I remember back when Survival Games, The Herobrine, and TIMV were the only three gamemodes. I loved the Herobrine game to death and played it religiously in the server's first couple years. When the server announced that the gamemode would be removed after the rewrite update (Java 2), I remember many of the veteran players coming back one last time and we sat in the old maps talking about how much we had fun with the game. I also remember telling them about how I loved seeing all the regular players back in the day and I was too shy to ever say anything. In any case, the game was removed and we never played it again.
Also shoutout to the other five players aside from me who dedicated time to grind the literal least popular gamemode, Restaurant Rush. I started playing it ironically until I ended up liking it a ton and ended up getting to the Top 10. You all were so sweet ^^
I was busy grinding out deathrun, I love restaurant rush
@@KaZProductionZ I remember seeing your name there! I loved DeathRun too, but I think I only sunk about 35K points into it. If you remember the name 'NebelungCat' or 'EmmyCatto' on the Top 10 for RR, that was me lol.
I looooved cowboys and indians, i used to play it so much that the score i had was one of the highest out of everyone i saw. I had so much fun with it that i still remember how the waiting lobby and the maps look like. If only I could play it again :')
Dude restaurant rush and cowboys & indians were awesome! I'm glad there's still people who remember them
McPVP was my go-to server back in the day. I would come home from school and play on the CTF and Hardcore Games for hours on end. It was integral to my daily routine and helped me mentally decompress. I quit playing Minecraft around 2014, but whenever I came back a few years later I expected to see it still standing, because it was so immensely popular. I was disappointed to find it dead and gone by that point.
However, I still have my memories of it. I can also say that many maps from the CTF are absolutely ingrained in my mind nearly a decade later lol.
I agree. Thanks for sharing
Nothing is going to beat the hours long battles you could have on Overcast.
yep
the only server that i can think of that has this type of gamemode is cubecraf bedrock, they have giga blockwars (yes thats the name)
3:07
Ahhh, finally.
A game that makes you touch grass.
Honestly, hopping onto the server is worth it for that alone.
No wonder it's Jerry and Harry's most popular gamemode.
Shotbow is by far still one of my favourite servers. Its a small community but Annihilation is still one of the best mini-games out there
Yeah, you start to see og players coming back. Servers during 2021 used to be 12 anni. Now it’s 100+ during the evening pst. This video is prob going to help Shotbow grow more
@@yoyodude4936i hope so. That’s the only server I play on
Shotbow started off as minez to my knowledge and became the first hub server when annihilation was announced. Many game modes on shotbow have been lost to time such has wasted, minez 2, minez with guns, ghostcraft, mine theft auto (the best gta clone in Minecraft) and many more newer game modes have all be scrapped. Shotbow hopefully will get the attention it deserves and maybe bring back some of these lost game modes.
I completely forgot about wasted - what a great gamemode. If I wasn't playing ghostcraft, I was playing Wasted
Death by void lol
Overcast Community is one of the three servers that I am playing on. I really love the gamemodes and the players cause (almost) everyone is involved to try to get the win for their team. I joined in a year and a half ago and I didn't knew his story at all. I'm so, so glad that this server has been revived. It is really a top tier minecraft server!
I think a significant shutdown this year wasn't necessarily a specific server, but Enjin, the service most servers used to host their websites. Until that point, you could still visit most "dead" server's websites, but now that is also gone :(
TIL Enjin shut down and turned into a crypto company, and probably not too much archived :(
I have a rank on Cubecraft (Which you cannot buy anymore and lost most of its value), and it hurts to see that they are really struggling right now. My favorite game modes were tower defense and mini games, which were removed last September. It’s actually interesting to see how it is surviving on the Java side, since it has only few store purchases available.
Same, favorite game modes where tower defense and mini games, the latter existing on bedrock Al that's good I guess, but I effectively quit the server once they where removed
TOWER DEFENSE GOT REMOVED?????????
I loved Shotbow a bunch as a kid. So many amazing gamemodes especially their spin on The Hidden sourcemod with Ghostcraft was so much fun
Ghostcraft was amazing! The gamemode was fun, but interacting with the people that kept it alive was even better ^^
Ghostcraft still holds such a place in my heart. I remember chasing the leaderboards when it had its own dedicated website and shit - truly phenomenal
Never forget Wasted or Last Man Standing (Which is Survival game version of MineZ ).
@@ratchet55_m8I’m pretty sure i have an old CZcams vid of myself playing LMS but I can’t find it
I played ghostcraft every day for a long period, was great times my IGN was Mrej112, remember playing with Jeffr3, Horse and a bunch others
I played on shotbow more than I did survival when I found out about MineZ. I remember I would somehow get large groups of players to follow me into different settlements. We'd play for hours until 1 by 1 they'd die or have to log out. It was so fun and there were a few people that I would always recognize and ally with.
I miss MineZ, I wish it was still around
Edit: I made this comment with a vague recollection of joining Shotbow a yearish ago and seeing it gone? But I look it up and it's still around apparently, which makes me quite happy to know
@@tisajokt7676They have updated a lot and it is a lot of fun to do dungeon runs.
I've been an active player in the shotbow community since 2013 and I can tell all the things you said in this video are accurate, and I appreciate the fact that you mention that the server still has a dedicated playerbase. Shotbow also has a big part of the staff team really hoping to make the gamemodes attractive again for a new player base in the future in order to advertise the server and bring a lot of new players. We don't know if it will actually work one day tho, but atleast this server has dedicated players hoping for a bright future !
If they could figure out a way to update the code of Wasted for the modern Minecraft versions, I feel like shotbow would explode again. In my personal opinion that game mode blew every other one of theirs out of the water tenfold. Custom textures, mechanics, everything soup to nuts was changed about the general game to make it basically what was a primitive version of Fortnite.
Oh my god you've just unlocked some of the best memories of my life. I had a tough time growing up struggling with poor mental health and disabilities which still effect me to this day. I remember one of the few times I fit in and got to interact with others and not feel like an outcast was playing Minecraft at the town library after school. When school was out we'd all run down and pile in, trying to be the first to reserve time on a computer to play Minecraft. I recall the best times being when we'd all play on Overcast Network, we'd all pile in and take part in these MASSIVE large scale mega battles. It didn't matter that I was the weird kid that nobody liked, we were a coordinated squad in an army that got hyper focused and worked together. It was a nice escape to fit in and be happy for a few hours a day. It's a very bittersweet memory, a little nugget of joy in the hell I was trudging through. As difficult as my past was I'd do it all again just for one more session.
Used to be a moderator for The Hive Java version, was a fun time honestly and made a few friends on there. I remember playing tons of TIMV and Sky Giants with friends for hours and hours, nowadays I play Shotbow every so often because of how underrated the annihilation game mode is. Team strats and base building is so much fun in that mode
i still play on shotbow regularly, the annihilation and minez scene is still thriving (on a smaller scale obviously) with lots of active groups and casuals alike
I have so many memories playing on the jerry and harry server - specifically the creative server. i miss the days the chat was full of people advertising head shops, roleplay plots and skin competitions. a couple of my friends and I made a group of companies that offered building services for people, we each built headquarters and expanded our businesses, i miss it
As someone who mainly plays cubecraft java, another big reason that many people stopped playing is because they removed alot of fun gamemodes, and they made the server 1.19+ accessible only.
fr tho
Project Ares is a blast to the past for me. The start of this video made me remember my time on it. It was the first server I ever played on back in 2012.
Seeing this video actually covering it was a nice surprise. Tempted to actually revisit it after a decade. Cheers for making this video TheMisterEpic.
Honestly the start of the video made me cry, I really couldn't pay attention. The gameplay and the music were all I could see. Great video, truly a "Blast from the Past".
I used to play ItsJerry&Harry religiously in 2014-2015. It was one of the best creative plot servers I ever played. Shame to see it fall from grace like that, but I suppose it was bound to happen.
Does anybody remember SkyDoesMinecraft's server? i used to play on it alot when i was younger before the....stuff that happened. But either case, i thought it was superfun, i was on it practicly everyday until real life got me busy and i eventually swapped computers, forgetting what the name was again...i miss it, the nostalgia is holding me hostage sometimes.
I totally remember it
Cubecraft is the place where my brother started as a noob but eventually mastered 1.9 pvp. And I was there to watch it happen. Eggwars was his thing. He played hundreds upon hundreds of games and I was always so happy when he won.
Sadly, he no longer plays there as solo Eggwars, his favorite game, was removed like a year ago. But both of us will always have fond memories of this server.
what was his username?
@@siryugen His most recent is MixxStar
Gave me nostalgia seeing mcpvp again. I remember playing it back in 2013-2015 and was a huge part of my childhood
Amazing video as always. It's always nice to see some lesser-known severs be given the spotlight alongside the servers we've come to know & love.
This is the same with Faction Servers. I was always a Factions player back then when I got into Minecraft. Now it just seems like they're in some void somewhere. It's really depressing.
There'll never be another game that gives me the same feeling that factions or hcf did
I had totally forgotten about Overcast! I put so many hours in there with my friends all those years ago! I’m very glad to hear it’s back! Great video :)
I used to play on the Hive every day. I miss what Hive Java once used to be. But it was time for an Era to end, and what we miss now used to be a fun time with friends, I'm happy that's what it was.
J&H used to be my childhood, I grew up playing OITC daily on there. My first time socializing online, being genuinely competitive, and using english somewhere other than school were all on there. I have such fond memories of that place, I even have some friends around that I met on there more than 7 years ago. I wish some other server would try to replicate that idea of a main lobby that OITC had. After finishing a competitive game you wouldn’t be thrown into different places than the rest of the players, you’d all be sent back to the same place, that made people chat, form friendships, and grow hate for each other. I think that really made the community so much stronger, it made you form connections with people that you’d actually regularly meet in the lobby, it’s a feeling I wish I’d sometime find another game having. I’m really gonna miss it when it’s completely gone, this video really hit me right in the heart lmao
I have close to 2,500 hours on Cubecraft Java--primarily in EggWars. It's eerie going back to play a game or two and not having full lobbies or the maps I used to adore (shout out to Teaparty). And yet... despite the ghost town nature of modern Cube, I have hope it's because all of us tryhards found some grass and moved on to bigger and better things. :)
Épicube was such a big french server that even went international i think. It dominated French MC in 2016, hitting it's peak at 11800 players.
Épicube UHC Run was the best gamemode they had alongside FightClub
@@kinghyrule2389One of my favourites were Totem, i used to play it all the time with a cousin.
Would've loved to see Wynncraft on here, another timeless classic
Anyone else remember blockdrop on cubecraft? I used to spend ALL DAY as a kid just playing that, nothing beat the feeling of getting several 4-block placements in a row. If anyone knows a server it is still around on and actively played PLEASE TELL ME 😭
Man... I have some memories from Cubecraft and the Hive, but nothing compared to the joy of the Shotbow Network.
Annihilation was a special mode for me, and one of the few modes I enjoyed even when my team performed poorly.
I would love to jump back into that mode again, but I worry the low player counts would make it too hard to find a game.
Can usually find a game at any time of day.
Shotbow is my favorite one on this list for sure, can't even fathom how much MineZ I played when I was younger. Good times
Maybe its also worth mentioning that at one point cubecraft java got an update, where they fixed shields, added crossbows, netherite, swift sneak and new maps (even with the warden) in skywars. The server was very popular at that time and I even saw some smaller ytbers there. After about 2 months however, they nerfed it by removing shields entirely and nerfing the only axe kit in skywars (axes couldnt be found in chests from that point on). Everyone liked it, like why, and it was very sudden too.
I play on it lot on lucky block. The 1.19 was very strong, maps were smaller and other stuff wich I don't remember chaged, but the game it's great imo.
The Hive was my favourite Java server. So sad to see it vanish. Loved OITC and TTT
Brawl was the server i grew up with, specifically Warz, i have clips dating back too the launch of the Warz on map number 1.
When the announcement that brawl was shutting down tears were definitely shed, it was my first experience in a tight knit community and introduction into the competitive side of gaming. because of the people i met and the experiences i had in Warz i am who i am today. The glory days of kill montages and clutches that feel like your heart is about to explode. it was an incredible experience and one i will never forget.
Hearing about mcpvp was the worst dude. The ctf on that was so unbelievably good at the time, I have so many fond memories playing on there as an actual child barely knowing how it worked. Then one day tried to play it again years later and got directed to brawl, where I tried a few of their gamemodes and ended up in their creative building worlds. I started streaming that twice a week in 2017 and built up such an awesome flatworld in there, met a bunch of people through it which was pretty awesome as well. Hearing that it shut down earlier this year was like a hit to my childhood and my teenage years both in one
I really miss HiveMC Java. Bedwars is one of the best minigame I ever played in Hive. Shotbow has to be one of the oldest network server in MC history,. It used to be very popular with lots of minigames and now it fell off after they removed some games.
Shotbow closed MTA for 3 years before just cancelling the game, they made us wait 3 years hoping it would return just to scrap it.
when TheMisterEpic uploads you know its going to be a good day (or night for me)
Same
Holy crap! I'm featured on the CubeCraft forums?! Thanks for featuring me at 9:50!
Shotbow actually did a dirty about a month ago, in this year's /r/place. In the final hours of the event, someone started using a massive amount of bots to plaster the Shotbow logo on prominent places on the canvas... _including over Technoblade's memorial art_ (taking at least a dozen nation-community areas with it). People were *_pissed_* but managed to mostly repair Techno's art before Whiteout Mode began.
I completely forgot about Jerry and harry's server, omg thanks, i remmber having so memories from back then playing on this server
Only og legacy console editions remember the Battle, Dig, and Glide gamemodes
Shotbow's Annihilation man... Good ol times. Probably spent hundreds of hours back in the day.
The Jerry And Harry server is pretty much used for Parkour to be honest.
True, there’s some remnants of the OITC community on from time to time as well
I've been on Minecraft PVP since they merged with Brawl, and I've gotta say its been fun to see the server grow and make friends along the way, but now that's replaced with a pit of disappointment that I won't be able to recconnect with any of them ever again
Hey, I know it’s not the full server, but I’ve been part of a project that started in 2018 to revive Woodycraft which shut down in 2016. So far we have speedrun fully working and also have files for blitz and spleef, so in a way it would have kinda been fitting for this video 😂
I remember playing on WoodyCraft all the time as a kid! Is there somewhere I could find any info about this project?
@@rayrayskarma9462info is on our channel :)
I'd also like to see info about this
i'd love to see you talk about mcorigins someday, that server's creative and factions modes hold a lot of memories for me
I remember playing on two specific CZcamsr MC servers many years ago, which both have been shutdown as of a few years ago (via 2019 or so, I can't remember for sure).
I cannot remember the server names for the life of me, but I remember they were owned by ChooChoosGaming and Wizard Keen if any of you remember either of them. I used to absolutely love servers where you build on a plot, and I remember that both servers had that "feature" (Keen's server was purely a plot server iirc).
I remember playing on Keen's server pretty much daily, so I was sad when I eventually saw that I could no longer join the server. I remember making friends on there, so it's a shame to think that I won't see them again. But hey, that's just how things go nowadays.
Great video! I learn a lot from these!
We need a sequel with 2b2t, since, you know, the 1.19 update.
For context, the economy also had a soft reset wiping many items in many places without warning and removing placed bedrock. Something the server promised not to do
constantiam is the 2nd oldest anarchy server made in 2015 which updated to 1.19 successfully without doing all those bad things
Constantiam NOW the Oldest Anarchy Server in Minecraft.
3:05 seeing this footage, i remember that i used to play it probably like 6 years ago, had no idea i remember that until now lol, also was playing cubecraft a lot around that time, even played it not long ago, but stopped when they removed mineware, literally the best gamemode there was
Overcast going away was so sad and im so happy it came back, the culture of building absurd defenses is so unique and makes it pretty new player friendly since less skilled PVP players can always work on defenses. The feeling of sneaking through after hours of a match is just unparalleled.
At the time it re-opened, the admin said that hundreds of people still had it in the server list when checking the logs for pings
There was a server I always played on back in the day and it was somewhat unique because it was technically a factions server but most of the major factions in the game became city states that would declare war on each other and there would be massive battles between factions at warps and stuff. The server was called Citywars and I remember I joined the Kratora faction and went off and tried to create little outposts and settlements which genuinely grew but later on eventually got griefed as most things did back then. Those were days
being a person who played cracked servers years ago(most being from my country, so pretty small). It's really sad to see most of the servers I remember playing being shut down since small cracked servers don't last long.
The memories this brings back. Keep it up man
As an old itsjerryandharry player, I managed to grab peaceful survival old world before the reset (which caused a drop of players around 2016 iirc. I tried to grab that world as well but the file corrupted) then the deletion of the game mode. That's what mainly killed the server was the removal of the PSMP (and factions). Many long time active donators stopped having a reason to donate/play the server all together.
even tho i left minecraft about a year ago i still like to watch your videos and think i may should join some old anarchy or pvp server again. I hope youll grow the channel for a long time:D
Been playing Overcast Network since 2012 , amazing nostalgic server.
yess so many memories so much nostalgia. I forgot it existed when changing computers and i will be trying the new one so excited and glad its back
Shotbow’s annihilation was the peak minecraft multiplayer game mode. Back in the day with 120 players those matches were epic and one match could last hours. I still remember those late phase 5 games with only two teams left in a stalemate trying to finish each other off with everything they got. So many good memories…
Still active, Gets the most amount of players around this time im writing this, go play if ya want, still fun 1.12+ But 1.8.9 PvP
best part about annhilation imo was the base building, people who are bad at pvp like me could still be useful to the team by building walls around the base
These videos are killing me man. I used to play on every single one of these servers back in 2012-2017.
I still remeber playing grians minecraft server and playing that dissaster game each and every day such a shame that the server closed in 2019
I lived most of my life in 2012-2014 on MineZ on Shotbow, it's sad to see it's glory days past, but I'm also super thankful of the memories and friends I made. AU1 was my home away from home
I literally started crying when you brought up overcast. So many memories!
Thank you for making this, it is heart warming that they aren’t forgotten
I logged into Jerry and harry a few times recently. It’s sad to see it dead.
I also joined shotbow again lately and I used to mainly play GhostZ. Wish I saw you there in recent times but missed you there
tbh these videos are great for advertising. I didn’t know about a lot of these, and now I wanna check em out
Has anyone else heard of Minecraft Murder (MCM)? It was a somewhat niche, single-minigame server based on the Garry's Mod "Murder" game mode.
Likely due to Hypixel's introduction of Murder Mystery mixed with funding, MCM eventually went offline and their site went down.
Genuinely one of the most important servers in my life, I met so many people there and it was basically responsible for an entire _chapter_ of my past. I still miss it.
This is nostalgic, used to play HCF and Annihilation on shotbow and ofc MCPvP, many memories and many friends
didnt even play these servers, i was a kid stuck on console
Sadly, I was born just a little too late, so I don't know much of those Servers. But yet, it all looks so nostalgic seeing the maps, gamemodes and their gameplay
Shotbow had such an impact on the "pvp community" but it never gets the recognition it deserves, ty for adding it to this list.
all of these servers were/are amazing! great video :)
The nexus had a game mode I would play all the time years ago. It was called lucky chest wars, or chest wars, or something like that. That game was such a big part of my childhood!
I used to play on a "creative" server called Anticraft.
It predated creative mod so the only method of flight was a Magic Carpet plugin.
People used to just build entire towns and cities and it was so fun.
9:11 kinda sad you didnt mention this, but I only played cube craft for the tower defence cause it was so cool
cubecraft is my most nostalgic server, and the hive is still a very good server. I can already tell this'll be a good video :)
It is however today it's total garbage because of sweats, poor moderation, and lag
Cubecraft is pretty good today for bedrock at least
@@Eqvixity Java cubecraft is nice to play on when you have a good ping value.
Its really not, theres no community behind it, it feels empty and dead unlike back then
Shotbow HCF man the most fun years of my life… went to kohi after that and then HCteams. I’d love it if you did a “story of HCF” video!
one server I have a lot of memories of that is dead now, or rather more of a game mode is Dwarves vs Zombies. Can still see old gameplay of it from Pauseunpause's channel
It was such a fun asymmetrical team PvP mode.
Hey i remember loving your dog pfp so i subbed to you lol
sad to see brawl shut down. I was there long before mcpvp and mcctf got taken over by brawl. Was banned for using macros, but its besides the point. It was a huge part of my life, and played on the server for so many years. It was fun.
Shotbow was the only minigame server I ever spent a lot of time on and that's mostly because I freaking loved the smash minigame!
A server I don't see talked a lot about because it wasn't one of the most popular but was one of my favorites was the happy hunger games server. It had survival games but also so many other things and I was so sad to see it disappear. I hardly play multiplayer anymore because I don't see many servers worth the effort
I think it'as worth noting that cubecraft used a unusual approach when migrating to 1.9 (and then 1.12) pvp. I could still play Lucky Islands in 2021 using 1.8.9, but as it turned out, there were separate lobbies for 1.9+ and 1.8 players. I kept playing in 1.8 until Lucky Islands games just couldn't start (literally 8 concurrent players). After a while this server restricted players before 1.12.
TY for reminding me of OverCast network I was looking for that server for a while I used to play it a while ago but I couldn't figure out the name.
I used to help run one of the most popular pvp vanilla survival servers back in alpha/beta while in highschool with a some friends. We ran for some years before running into host issues and a script kiddie. Great times in the early days. We were one of the only non-profit servers. Every dollar that we obtained went into either server host costs or paying devs to make custom plugins or spawn builds. No admin/mod got paid, we just liked playing minecraft with the boys.
It was 2 Creepers 1 Craft - 2C1C for short. Yes it was a play on Two Girls One Cup.
