One of our projects—and possibly our biggest one—merged.games will be unlike any other Minecraft server. To guarantee an exceptional experience for both developers and players, we are building custom software and unique optimizations on top of PaperMC.

When we recently tested our server with 500 players, it used only 30% of its capacity. This indicates that each server could potentially handle around 1,666 players without any lag. With 7 servers available, over 11,600 players might be served concurrently. Of course, this calculation assumes a linear scalability model, and network operations along with other minor tasks consume additional power. It’s safe to say that we are prepared for the future.

What’s Next?

We are currently focused on two key initiatives. Once these tasks are completed, we will continue developing our custom protocols and ecosystem.

1. Developing the Server: We’re rigorously testing and refining our software to orchestrate the smaller servers, ensuring a seamless experience when players join for the first time.

2. Building Maps: Our builders are designing unique maps that break away from the conventional. We aim to create entirely new game experiences that cannot be found anywhere else.

Our goal is to deliver something both innovative and enjoyable, while ensuring player safety. We have some truly groundbreaking ideas that have never been seen before in Minecraft, and we’ll share more details soon.

Stay tuned – we can’t wait to show you what we’re building!
