My assumption is that when they finally make this transition in 1-2 or even 3 years from now we will finally see EU, SA, OE, and Asian servers because then all they have to do is reduce the amount of server usage from their chicago server and spread it to foreign servers. This is still a major if but funds are definitley not their lacking point. Its something to do the way hypixel is built.
@@LSryBoi thanks for sharing your thoughts. for the reason 1.8.9 is hard to add regional proxies, i believe that relates to what i said in my video about transfer packets. when you join hypixel they cannot simply send you to the au proxy and it would probably confuse people or cause the new regional proxies to have less traffic, leading to them not being worth adding. in the latest versions of minecraft there are transfer packets which allows the server the send you to a different proixy this is can make the regional proxies less confusing. with your last point of them not being able to do yet this because of way hypixel is built, i believe further adds onto my point that hypixel is an 11 year old server with most likely old/legacy code. when i used the hypixel api for a project, i have found them to have very inconsistently naming stats, sometimes using uppercase, lowercase and different naming schemes which leaves me to believe that transitioning to a setup with multiple proxies world wide would be hard simply due to their current infrastructure not being designed for this. I do hope hypixel does this in the future but with my current stand I doubt this would happen any time soon as most of hypixel game modes run on a very old version of minecraft - 1.8.9. (as a 1.8 plugin developer, a lot of cool things servers do are not easy and requires packets or complicated ways of doing things)
also this video is scripted because I tried do a normal commentary and I kept forgetting what to say or just losing focus, and started playing the game lol
they won’t do that cuz it’s gonna split the player base while making them less money as they hav to spend more on hosting different servers. also the comm is dead, it’s only the skyblock comm left. there’s virtually no big reason to open multiple proxies for a dead game
setting up proxy now would be silly, its not much effective cuz either you'll have to setup a lot of proxies for a reasonable effect or completely setup a server on eu or asia which will be splitting hypixel playerbase in a way (like hypixel china which had to be shut down due to proper funding). i do think they're just stalling a bit so they bring the server on par with other newer game versions to take benefit of actual ingame features (packet transfer) and more of refreshing some games. but hear me out it'll be a daunting task cuz the amount of revenue a Minecraft server makes compared to a live service with less than 15k players is barely anything
Suggestion: Why don’t they just the more popular games modes like Skyblock and Bedwars a separate server instead of it being a mini game on hypixel. You’ll get a slight ping boost
@@kahowong2065 im not sure what you mean but if you mean like bedwars.hypixel.net this would do nothing if the server is still hosted in the same location. maybe it would put less stress on their proxy but i doubt it would improve much
@@hi12167piesits not p2w, i mean feature is "p2w" but u don't need to do it cuz progression is already fast enough, that option only goes for lazy rich peoples who wanna get as much money to buy stuff which is just "skiping" grind parts which may be fun or not
@@Perfection.... yeah both reasons are why i think hypixel wont do this but according to other comments hypxiel probably has the funds so would be cool if they did this :)
@@Worthie i dont think vpns and proxies do much to your connection but your results will vary to mine. in terms of banning vpns this is completely useless as a quick google search can find you vpns that bypass this restriction so idk i guess it can prevent very bad hackers but most decent hackers can bypass it easily.
@hi12167pies i mean ping wise (cuz im asian) i use exitlag and my ping goes from 250-400 to stable 180 which is a lot considering i don't have to get limboed and be in the void everytime i join
i mean they can just add proxies for when loading into games, if they had to run the whole entierty of the server on a different proxy that would be too much work but lets say when ur queuing up into a duels game or something they could have like a diffrent selection for servers like us eu asia etc so this would make it so they only have to run those servers spesifically on the different proxies and this would also fix the problem with queue times where players would be unable to find lobbies because if theres no one on the eu servers u can just play on the american servers with the regular american ping
@@loukendioS umm so your saying remove bedwars, duels, skywars, cops and crims, party games (yes some of these have ping related issues), and half of their network?
@@hi12167pies i shouldve specified that im talkking about skyblock, half the shit they add is unnecessarily ping dependent and almost locks progression for people with high ping and while all those gamemodes are also ping dependent, they have to be because thats how the whole mode is, in skyblock they dont have to add ping dependent quests or items, but they do. not to mention how in stuff like bridge and bedwars theyve actually made it worse for the people with high ping, while they could easily fix it
