Java and Bedrock are entirely different games that work entirely different. Geyser is great for SMPs where there isn’t much custom behavior but even then there are issues. It sounds great in concept but you quickly will run into issues. If you believe I missed something please let me know! Maybe I'm completely overlooking something but in my eyes this seems like a big change that is worth considering. I just think merging the servers and bringing everyone together has more pros than cons. Some games/mechanics might have to be altered to accommodate different platforms but with my experience so far I haven't noticed a single issue in terms of interactions cross platforms But that already happens on bedrock right now. Plus tablet people will be playing against more PC players which might unbalance things. Java 'sweats' are VERY different from Bedrock 'sweats'. The skill gap will be VERY high for bedrock players. IN VR!!! ( You can already play bedrock in VR but Java server go BRRRRRR) Can merge the java and bedrock staff teams together into 1 team Allows people to play with their other friends who may not have the same version that they have Wait times for games will be nonexistent (since bedrock usually has around 5-10k players pretty sure) Larger overall player base since everyone will be together I'm not gonna link their website directly since it's not on the approved links list. For more information feel free to search Geyser Minecraft online. I have personally tried this out and can confirm it works with the latest Minecraft versions of both Java and Bedrock. What that does is translate the java packets into something bedrock can use (at least that's my understanding of it) and allowing bedrock players to join the Java edition server. This can be done by utilizing the plugin Geyser. Heya! So I had an idea that we could merge the Java and Bedrock edition of Mineplex into 1 server!

Good bedrock servers
