Hello,

I'm wondering if a decent Minecraft server with a handful of game modes could be built within 100 days to support 100 players. How long does it normally take you to construct a higher level of quality server? What could you achieve within 100 days in regards to Minecraft server development?

Looking forward to your thoughts,
Newbie

High performance, consistent uptime and fast support. Minecraft hosting that just works.

No joke, this would be an interesting YouTube video or time-lapse of getting a server live and ready in 100 days, it's a pretty neat idea. I think it would take quality over quantity though and may take longer than 100 days to make everything perfect. If everyone was working at full speed, I could easily see a small server and community done in 100 days.

It took me 1 year to make a good MC network, but half of it was time wasting. I could probably get that down to around 4 months.

I made a survival server in under a month all by myself, peaked at 20 players but later imploded as there were many issues like server performances, nasty grievers, staff management, and player interests. It's definitely possible, but I'd say take your time perfecting your server rather than rushing it and regretting after. Though I'm sure doing this would be faster and easier with a team and not alone like I did :p

Go on Discord and assemble a team, find a Java developer who has a lot of time and wants to help.

What Discord servers or other methods would you recommend to hire a high-end developer? It's worth noting I plan to write/get hired help to create all required plugins.

To be honest yes/no.

1) In the first phase you need a name, logo, domain, budget, host, etc. (Custom logo's can take up to a week.)
2) Now you got the host ready and your server gamemode idea ready. Start working on it, depending how good you want your server and how many custom things. It can take a month configuring it (depending how many plugins you have, and if you want to edit the lang.yml files lol) . Now you have to make a discord server (optional) shouldn't take long (max. 1 day? depending how fast you are willing to work.)
3) Your next step is probably working on the new gamemodes, which probably would take max 1 month.)
4) Releasing it.
5) people will report most likely alot of bugs and issues etc. That will consume a lot of time.
6) You will see the TPS drop, and have to optimize it. <- takes some time too.

My opinion:
If it's a single gamemode server, yes it's doable alone in 100 days.
If it's a bungeecord with 2 gamemodes, yes it's doable in 100 days.
If it's more than 3 gamemodes. it will be hard, and depending how much time you're willing to invest in it. It might be possible.

I think it's certainly possible to make a half-decent server in this time, considering you have the money and/or access to most premium plugins that you would need + a team to assist you throughout the process.

This is an idea I'd be interested in, therefore, if you need assistance, contact me: Alistair#4081

If you're looking to achieve a mediocre/decent server that achieves its job, then yes, it's easily more than doable, but if you want something really exclusive, probably not. I've been working with the guys over at SpaceDelta for the Season 3 launch and it's been over 100 days and we're not done yet. Quality takes time.

A Minecraft Server can be built in 24 hours or less with the right knowledge and experience.
