Hardcore SMP Minecraft Server
Hardcore SMP is the go-to server for hardcore survival multiplayer, for both Java Edition and Bedrock Edition. No world resets, no pay-to-win garbage, no teleporting to other players; just a vanilla hardcore multiplayer experience, with some additional features to enhance the multiplayer aspect of the game. These additional features include: • An coin-based economy that is completely player-driven, meaning there are no in-game shops for buying and selling normal Minecraft items. Players can only buy from and sell to each other. This process is facilitated by our trading system and our auction house! Coins are brought into circulation through defeating mobs and looting chests. • A comprehensive land claiming system. Players can claim areas of land for their bases, farms, etc., completely protecting them from being griefed by others. This means you can log out of the server safe in the knowledge that your base will still be there when you log back in! Claim owners can also add other players as trusted members to their claims, allowing them to build there. However, if a claim owner dies, their claims are deleted, leaving the land unprotected! Our land claiming system is very comprehensive - come and check it out! • A one-time-use "/randomtp" command, which teleports you to a random location in the world, so you don't have to manually travel far away from Spawn. There is also "/home", which teleports you to your respawn point, and "/spawn", which teleports you to Spawn. These are the only teleport commands on the server. Hardcore SMP is completely non-pay-to-win. We feature a single rank, VIP, on our store, whose perks are purely cosmetic, and do not provide any form of advantage over other players. Our store also features a revive, which when used is pretty much equivalent to logging into the server with a new Minecraft account - you will be teleported to the spawn point of the server, your game mode will be changed from spectator back to survival, and your player-specific progress will be reset. This has the benefit of not requiring you to buy a new Minecraft account in order to be able to play again, which is what you would have to do on a 100% vanilla hardcore server (as well as change your IP address in the case of death-IP-ban servers). Hardcore SMP will never become pay-to-win. To join the server, you can use the server address "hardcore-smp.com". However, if you do not have the option to add a server (such as on Xbox, PlayStation or Switch), you can instead add "HardcoreSMP" as an Xbox/cross-platform friend, after which you will be able to join the server through the "Social" tab in-game, or by joining the account's game session. We also have a Discord server - be sure to join and become part of our community! Invite link: https://discord.gg/fmwvGGR
