Hey Snapcraft!

We are so excited to announce the reset of the Survival server! This will take place on March 2nd, 2024. Survival was the first reset under our new Owners, and we appreciate that there is some amazing content missing, and so much more we can give to Survival! With the 1.20.4 update and the new technology we have, this reset is shaping up to be the most exciting one yet!

We believe that the changes we have implemented will enhance your Snapcraft experience. For a more comprehensive overview of all the changes we have made, please read on.

We look forward to seeing you all online on the newly updated Survival server on March 2nd.

2nd March 2024

Please note: The release time can be a couple of minutes later, we are trying to reach 7PM CET (19:00).
​

Changelog
The following are the most important features/modifications implemented toward this season's map and functions. At the end you can see everything else!


New! 1.20.4 Server Version
With the latest version of Minecraft releasing, we thought we’d update our Survival server to this! Offering a stable connection, and loads of new content, experience the joy of Minecraft with a fantastic community and loads of custom features/content you wouldn’t get in a normal vanilla world!

All of the new mobs, blocks and structures are present within our new Survival Gamemode, and we cannot wait to see what creations and ideas you all come up with!

Make sure to join our brand new Survival Gamemode as soon as it releases to not fall behind the rest of the crowd! If you miss out at the start, don’t worry, there is always time to join play.snapcraft.net and experience the fun for yourself!


New! Build Shop
We are aware that players miss the old creative mode feature on Snapcraft. As already stated, this will not be returning, and is something we don’t feel should be on a Survival Server. However, with this new feature, we think it will give players the exact same feeling and allow them to create wonderful structures and build throughout the world on Survival!
The build shop is a feature for players that are King Rank and above. By typing the command /buildshop you can access the build shop. The shop offers a 95% discount in the normal /shop price, meaning that it’s cheaper than ever to build the base of your dreams!

Please note:
We have taken multiple precautions to ensure that this system is player and server friendly. These blocks are unique, and will not drop when broken, cannot be traded, sent in maildelivery, placed inside a chest etc. We hope that players enjoy the new build shop, and that their desire for Creative Mode is satisfied through this new feature!

In the future we will try and automate this system, where you can enable some form of building mode. However, for now, this will remain in our ideas list!

New! Dungeons
Throwing it back in time once again, with the addition/return of the dungeons feature! We have slightly changed the way dungeons work however. Now, the dungeon area will accessible at /spawn, for everyone to enjoy whenever they want! You can type /warp dungeon to get there. There will be a cave area, hosting mobs of all kinds, and 3 unique bosses to slay! Each boss will have different: health, abilities, looks. Furthermore, there will be a change in how often they spawn.

Battle your way through the annoying mobs to slay the boss at the end and be rewarded with a Boss Lootbag for your troubles! The top 2 players that deal the most damage to a boss, will be rewarded with a different tier of Boss Lootbag. That’s not all though, the mobs along the way will drop a variety of goodies for you and any friends to collect. Don’t fight eachother about who gets the rewards though!
We will not spoil what these bosses are, or what they do! You will need to jump into Snapcraft Survival and look at them for yourselves! Do be careful though, these mobs fight back!


New! Global PvP System
We are returning Global PvP onto Survival, but with a twist. Players can choose to ‘opt in’ or ‘opt out’ of being PvP enabled in the wild.

When you join Survival, you will be given the option to choose your preference. You are easily able to switch between PvP on, and PvP off, with /pvp toggle.

If you wish to disable your PvP, this process will take 1 hour. Similarly, if you get hit by a player whilst this is occurring, the timer will reset, so please use it in an area you know you’ll be safe.

We hope that by giving players the option to enable or disable their PvP Status will improve the overall quality of life to Survival, and will allow new players a chance to get situated and grow their claims without fear of death.

Please note:
If you enter a designated PvP Zone, like the one in /warp end, then no matter what mode you’re in, PvP will be ENABLED.


New! Enchantments
You will be like a kid in a candy store wanting all these brand new enchants! But, don’t worry, they’re all very simple to understand and use.
The custom enchants make Survival an exciting gamemode for players, being able to experiment with enchantments which are not possible in regular Minecraft. Thankfully, we have taken the time to think of and craft new enchantments for our players to use when fighting. They all grant minor buffs, which will give you that slight advantage over your opponents.

New! Custom Weapons
Just using a normal sword or axe is boring! Earn and unlock some of our brand new custom weapons, available today on our Survival Gamemode! Each custom weapons comes with an unique set of bonuses and buffs, and it’s own special ability! Simply shift (crouch) and right click to get this to activate!

Just like the custom armour sets, our weapons will also have their own, unique textures with the optional custom texture pack, to bring your gameplay to the next level!

You can find a brief overview of the weapons, and their abilities below:

• Dragonblade (Sword): Become the God of fire.
• Doomblade (Sword): More attacks equals more damage?
• Halberd (Axe): A devastating blow to catch your enemies off guard.
• Katana (Axe: Anyone that comes close will be punished.

This is not an exhaustive list of bonuses, you will need to load into our brand new Survival Gamemode to see them all!


New! Custom Armour Sets
More combinations, possibilities and methods to dominate your opponents and look great at the same time!
We have added 5 brand new custom armour sets to the Survival gamemode. Each giving you that slight edge over your opponent. Each set has its own unique bonus, which is reflective based on its name.
Each armour set is unlocked through acquiring fragments, (more information below). The name of the armour set reflects the bonuses provided, and also its appearance using the optional custom armour pack. The following armour sets have been added:

• Dragonheart
• Solarflare
• Thunderstruck
• Atomic
• Frostbite.

We will not spoil what each piece and set does! Make sure to hop in-game and discover for yourselves!


New! Fragments
Fragments are a new but vital currency for Survival! They are used to unlock the custom armour sets which can be found above. There are five fragments, and their name reflect the armour set.

For example, there are: Dragonheart, Solarflare, Thunderstruck, Atomic and Frostbite fragments. You will need to collect Dragonheart Fragments to unlock the Dragonheart armour set. You can obtain fragments from a variety of sources, some with better chances than others. These are: Envoys, Lootmobs, Crates, Lootcrates, Classes and Boss Lootbags (kill dungeon bosses).

These fragments are not easy to obtain, and this is intentional. We do not want to flood the server with brand new armour sets straight away. You will need to work hard to gain these, so what are you waiting for?! Read on to see how you can bring your newest armour set to life!


New! Pets
There is nothing better than having a cuddly and adorable pet in your inventory whilst playing on our Survival server! These adorable companions not only serve as loyal friends but also bestow unique and powerful bonuses upon their owners.
Some pets may enhance a player's combat skills, granting increased attack damage or defence, while others might possess specialised abilities such as enhanced moving speed or even bonus money when selling to the server shop!
There are two types of pets, passive and active. Passive pets simply will give bonuses to the player whilst they’re in your inventory, and will work all the time! However, an active pet needs to be right clicked, in-order for the Owner to get the bonus. These have cooldowns and levels, so will get better overtime!

You can see all the new pets below, and a basic summary of what they do:

Passive:
Cheetah - Gain Speed 2.
Snake - Immune to wither and poison damage.
Badger - Gain Haste 1
Tiger - Gain Strength 2.
Mole - Chance for some smelted versions of that mined ore to drop.
Crow - Chance to receive an emerald, diamond, gold ingot or iron ingot when a mob is killed.

Active:
Pig - Restores hunger to full.
Golden Dragon - The player will receive 0.1x Sell Boost to /shop
Owl - The player will receive 5% more EXP income from all sources
Fox - Gain Haste 3
Falcon - Gain Speed 3
Rhino - Knocks away enemies within a 6 block radius.

Please note:
The active pets all have a cooldown and an unique boost. The cooldown will decrease, and the boost will increase when the pet is levelled up!
Pets again are rare, and is designed to be this way. We do not want to overwhelm the players and flood the server with these pets from the start of the server. As the season progresses and reaches it’s end, they will naturally become more common.


New! Classes
Looking for something new to enhance your Survival experience? All your prayers have been answered with our brand new Classes, available within the /goldshop, crates and lootcrates! Unlock one of the many classes that will be added, and have them for life! The more you collect, the more you will be able to use!

Our Classes offer players to instantly obtain a variety of essential items on their Survival journey. Each Gkit will give players different items, depending on what they unlock. Therefore, there are different cooldowns for classes, varying from 3 days to 14 days. Please note that these are potentially subject to change, some classes might be reduced or increased in cooldown depending on the Management Team’s discretion.

You can spend your hard earned Gold on these new classes kits today and have them for life! We will be constantly adding some new classes to Survival as there are new updates and resets, so make sure to keep checking them out!

You can get FREE Gold to purchase these just by voting, /vote!


New! End Dimension
The end is back, and better than ever before! We have re-designed the old arena, and made some brilliant cosmetic upgrades! To go there, simply type /warp end and jump straight into the action! Be careful of the terrain, and make sure you don’t get knocked into the void! Thank you to Tsyp for creating these masterpieces!

There is also an unique boss in the end, which can be accessed through the appropriate portal within the /warp end area. This has been clearly labelled with a hologram. Enjoy the thrills of a Dragon fight and unlock the dragonheart armour before the rest of the field! With our cool arena you will be able to live the dreams of a Minecraft player every 4 hours!

This dragon fight will act in the same way as the bosses from our new dungeons area, the top 2 damagers will be given a boss lootbag to open to gain all the spoils!


New! Lootmobs
Seeing the success that our lootmobs have on KitPvP, we thought it would be beneficial to add these to our newest PvP arena in the end dimension. The lootmobs can be easily recognised by their nameplates within the /warp end arena!
Take a break from killing other players, and focus your efforts on fighting some friendly mobs! They will not attack you, but you still slaughter them. Sounds perfect, right?
These mobs have been added all around the /warp end area. A new lootmob will spawn every 15 seconds, with there being a maximum of 20 at any one time. There are over 100 unique rewards that can be obtained from killing these lootmobs! There are basic items, such as building blocks available, money and other things to kickstart your journey!

This addition is outside the box of what is normally on our Survival server. However, that is not a bad thing! We feel like this addition will be beneficial. and will give you a reason to be active inside the PvP arena at the end. This will then encourage bigger, active fights between rivals.


New! AFK Pool
Who doesn’t love free rewards?! We certainly do! Take a bath inside our new afk pool and be rewarded with an AFK Lootbox!

With our new AFK Pool, players can be away from the game, and still earn some basic rewards. All you have to do is place your character inside of the fountain which can be found at spawn, or use /warp afk. Every 30 minutes, you will be rewarded with an AFK Lootbox for free! This lootbox is home to some fantastic rewards which cannot be missed!

Need to hop out at 29 minutes for a boss fight, or your friend is about to run a dungeon? Go for it! The time which you have spent inside the afk pool is not forgotten, and will roll over when you get back in.

It’s more the merrier inside our new AFK pool, so do not miss out on these free rewards!


New! Tags
Is 20 brand new tags too many? No, of course not! There are now so many new tag options available, which can be purchased through our /goldshop! We have also added a brand new category of tags, being rare. Purchase a new tag today and show-off who you are!

You can find your tags easily now, as we’ve made the /tags GUI much more user friendly! Simply click on the category of the tags at the top to filter out which tags you want to select from. For example, clicking the legendary tags section will filter only your owned legendary tags!


New! Playtime Rewards
A new Snapcraft favourite! We’ve added our classic /playtimerewards system. This allows players to get free rewards for simply being online. We’ve added 28 playtimerewards to claim for now. The longer you’re online, the better the reward you will be able to claim!

We will be adding more of these later in the season, as it develops and the community starts to complete the ones already added.

You can also claim these on your alternate accounts, so why not have them join the party as well? You will not be able to claim the same reward once per account.


Updated! Server Shop
The /shop is the main method that players, new and old use to earn money and become the richest and most powerful member of the community! The shop before was lacking, with a lot of items missing all-together, and a lot of important items that couldn’t be sold at all.

But, fear not! We have put this right, and added 95% of items to the /shop now, all of which with a sell and buy price! There are so many new methods and ways to earn money, take a long scroll through the /shop and see what you can farm to make the most amount of money.

We have also added two new categories, being the 1.20 blocks, and slabs and stairs section. They are what they say on the tin! We have also updated ALL the other sections, adding the missing blocks.

Most importantly, the price of tropical fish has been nerfed into the ground! Their reign of being the most meta item has come to an end, thankfully!


Updated! Guilds
Overall, the guild system was pretty good, and we believe it’s made the first season of Survival a success! However, there are certainly some small adjustments that can be made to make guilds brilliant.

With this in mind, we have added more /guild levels for players to show off and spend their hard earned money and experience on! We have also changed the rewards you get from /guild levels, spreading our the boosts, allowing you to change the bracket colours now too! We have also capped the member size, and warp amounts as they were simply too large.

We have also made some smaller changes to /guilds, with polishing the GUIs to make them look more professional and appeasing.


Updated! Crates

We have added a new dimension to some our crates, giving you the rush with every key that you open! Each crate new has 28 rewards for players to sink their teeth into. Each crate has been carefully thought out and planned to provide you with the best experience. Some of the rewards within the crates will also improve with your /playerlevel! You will need to reach a certain playerlevel for the crate to give a better reward, so they're certainly worth grinding for now! This should make the crates more favourable throughout the entire Snapcraft Survival experience.

We hope that the updated crates will encourage players to grind and explore all of our new features!


Updated! Kits
The kit system is the fundamental system that players use to gain access to early games items. We have therefore spent a considerable amount of time deciding what we can add, take away and change to make the kits good, yet not too OP for all players. With there being more of a focus on the PvP side of Survival than last reset, we wanted to ensure that this experience was not ruined by having the best, most OP gear from the start!

We have changed the Kit for every single rank, making them fair yet something you certainly don’t want to miss! We have made the decision to remove the claimblocks from the standard kits, and instead each rank will have a once time kit to claim, in which they can get a large amount of claimblocks. You can do this on as many accounts as you want (remember the alt limit of 4).

We feel like the change with claimblocks will still enable progression, without the entire world being swallowed up immediately! Happy playing!


Updated! Playerlevels
We have looked at all the playerlevels and changed a lot of the tasks! We’ve added new tasks, based on some of the new features that have been added to our Survival Gamemode! There is always something that you can be doing to earn great a valuable rewards!

There has also been a variety of changes made to the rewards that you get from playerlevels, adding completely new rewards, and also nerfing those that you get from level 100+. To see these changes for yourself, simply do /playerlevel.


Optional! Resource Pack
Bring your Survival experience to live with the optional resource pack! This will only affect the custom armour sets and weapons, giving them an unique and vibrant look! This will also apply to other players that have the resource pack enabled.

We are leaving the decision to the players whether they want to enable this! To do so, simply follow these steps: Multiplayer > Click Snapcraft > Edit > Server Resource Packs > Enabled > Done > Load Snapcraft Survival!


Fixed! Bugs
We have been hard at work quashing some of the annoying bugs on our Survival Server. Anything that still isn't fixed, please let us know on Discord so we can look to get it done ASAP!


Misc. Updates & Changes
Multiple small changes have been made, some of these small changes are the following:

Question and Answers
Why did Survival reset?
Survival has already up for some time, and is missing some key features that were missed before. A reset has to happen to change and improve with lots of excellent new features, to make the game more exciting for you all! This also allows us to update the gamemode to 1.20.4.

This then allows you, the players, to have a fresh start and new players can begin to play without any significant disadvantage.

This means all guilds, items, money, and the map will be reset. Nothing will be kept leftover from the previous map. I know this must be a disappointing revelation for a lot of you, but think about the exciting new changes, the new alliances you can forge, the new map, the new features and updates the different kinds of gameplay, and the style provided with this update will surely make it a worth-while and exciting reset!

Below you can find what you will lose and what you will keep:

What will I keep?

• Purchased Ranks & Rank Upgrades
• Purchased Perks
• Won commands/ranks out of crates

What will I lose?

• All items in your inventory, enderchest and playervaults.
• Any currencies such as money, and EXP.

We hope to see you on our new Survival server soon!
If you have feedback or any suggestion, let us know we'd love to make this as good as we can.
Thanks.​
