So I found this server called CollideCraft Time Zero and it feels like you crash into some broken dimension. The world is not calm at all and everything feels kind of wrong. Space is tight and resources are not easy to get so you actually have to fight and think to survive.
It is a semi vanilla SMP with some light lore so there is a story vibe but it is still Minecraft survival. There is lifesteal so killing people actually matters and makes things way more intense. There are factions so people group up and make alliances and you never really know who you can trust.
The server also uses prox chat so you can hear people when they get close and that makes sneaking and teaming way more fun. There are frequent events too so it is not just grinding all the time. Players also get to choose plugins so the community helps shape how the server feels.
It just launched and it works for both Java and Bedrock together so more people can join in. Survival here feels earned not given and it really fits if you like a tough world with drama and hidden stuff under the surface.
