Greetings, Wanderers

March has been a defining month for Beyond Horizons - one marked not only by transformation, but by endurance.

The past few months have tested us in more ways than one, but through every setback, this community has continued to stand strong.

Now, with a major infrastructure milestone behind us, we move forward on stronger ground than ever before.

Major Infrastructure Update

📢 Migration Complete

Following our recent announcement, we’re pleased to confirm that the migration to our new infrastructure has now been successfully completed and the server is back online.

Thanks to the tireless efforts of our team, along with a very special helping hand from Pter0x for saving us from my slow ass WiFi, cheers BT!, Beyond Horizons is now running on a much more stable and far less temperamental system.

This upgrade puts us in a significantly stronger position going forward, both in terms of performance and long-term reliability.

What’s Changed

🚀 The lobby has now been fully removed.

🚀 Our main IP remains the same: play.beyondhorizonsmc.com

🚀 Players now connect directly to the main server, no proxy, no lobby, just straight in.

Performance & Stability

⚡ We’re already seeing noticeable improvements across the board. With upgraded hardware and a simplified setup:

• Server performance is significantly better
• Restarts should be far less frequent, with trials beginning at once every 48 hours
• Overall stability has been greatly improved

These major hardware advances mark a huge leap forward for the server and give us a much stronger technical foundation for everything ahead.

Backup & Reliability

🛡️ Our backup systems are now more robust than ever before, ensuring better protection and recovery moving forward.

Beyond Horizons is not only stronger, it is safer, steadier, and far more resilient than before.

Voting Update

🗳️ Voting is now back online with a brand new system and improved rewards.

Thank you all for your patience while this was updated. Your continued support genuinely helps more than you know.

Through The Storm

It’s been a rough few months for us as a server.

We’ve faced setbacks, technical hurdles, and even some individuals who have tried to bring us down.

But through all of it, this community has stood its ground.

That resilience has meant everything , and I’m incredibly proud of that.

Beyond Horizons has always been more than a server. It’s a world shaped by the people who choose to remain, rebuild, and keep moving forward together.

Ongoing Tweaks

🔧 There are still some formatting tweaks ongoing, so apologies for any unsightly elements for now.

I figured I’d let you all jump in and play whilst I get those sorted, rather than keep everyone waiting any longer.

A Milestone Ahead

🎉 Beyond Horizons is fast approaching a huge milestone.

On May 21st, we mark our 11th anniversary , a hell of a journey, and an even bigger achievement.

Few communities make it this far, and even fewer continue to grow, evolve, and stand strong through everything thrown at them.

This milestone belongs to every single one of you who has been part of the story , past, present, and still to come.

We’ll have more to share as we get closer... but for now, just know this:

11 years is only the beginning.
