xMC has been an ongoing SMP since June 2024, starting as a semi-vanilla server with features being gradually added by demand of the community. At this point we no longer consider ourselves “semi-vanilla,” moreso “just enough vanilla.” First it was adding Bedrock crossplat capability, then integrating the Minecraft server chat into the Discord server, then adding individually toggleable KeepInventory, then removing the Auction House in favor of a server-run shop with a centralized economy, then SilkSpawners, then custom enchantments…yeah things have changed quite a bit since the semi-vanilla days. At the democratic request of our community, of course.
Earlier this month we quietly started a closed beta for Season 4, and with the Minecraft 1.21.9 release there were a lot of bugs and broken plugins to iron out when we first started. As we went through discovery and fixed the bugs, the 3 other beta testers began to invite their friends. And those friends invited their friends, who invited their friends…and then we ended up with the screenshot I have here, and honestly this wasn’t even the peak player count today. Clearly things have gotten a bit out of control. 😅
That said, due to increasing player demand I’ve decided to not stick with my original public launch date for November 1st. Instead Season 4 will be open to the public starting TODAY for the last week of the beta—and the maps will be retained on full launch. The End has been disabled up to this point, so we’ve scheduled an event to open The End on 11/15. The prize for the player that slays the dragon has yet to be established. If you don’t want to miss out, definitely check us out. 🙂
