I could spend 30 minutes rambling about why hypixel should stay on 1.8.9, but those are the main reasons why i think so. developing mods for 1.13+ is also more difficult than 1.8.9. Making skyblock a separate server will probably kill hypixel, since over 50% of players probably play hypixel just for skyblock (including me), and also transferring progress will be a hassle for the admins.Īll mods will have to be rewritten to adapt to 1.20, and as such many mods will be unavailable, either temporarily or permanently. all other gamemodes will have to update to 1.9+, and since most gamemodes are pvp, that's gonna be a killer for bedwars, skywars, duels, etc. Item abilities will have to be reworked to prevent spam, the wardrobe and custom armor sets will have to be reworked, melee and bow attacks will have to be reworked, etc.ģ.

many core features will have to be rewritten and reworked.ĭo i have to explain this one? almost everything in the game will have to be rewritten server-side and we know how that's gonna go (*ahem* 0.14) Like, look at 2b2t, it's probably never updating from 1.12.2 due to performance issues.Ģ. Ok, before you dislike spam me or anything hear me out.ġ.8.9 is more optimized and runs faster due to its relative simplicity, and the fact that the 1.13 update introduced a massive drop in performance.
