2beta2t - "The Oldest Version Anarchy Server in Minecraft".

Logo of the 2beta2t server.



As the title says, 2beta2t is an anarchy server running on Minecraft Beta 1.7.3, the last version before the "controversial" Adventure Update (b1.8) which redesigned the terrain generation and expanded the height limit from 128 to 256. The server is a beta version of the popular 2b2t, the oldest anarchy server in Minecraft. It launched in 2020 by owners "tinfist" and "spearmints" and at the time of writing this (2022) the world size is 104GB! For some events, according to their website "beyond their control", the old owners transferred the ownership to "Snoopie" in 23rd February 2020.




SalC1, famous 2b2t youtuber, joined 2beta2t for his youtube video "2b2t Alternatives" raising the playercount from a daily of 9 to 40! But for the og players, this was a tragedy. Nontheless it's an anarchy server so everyone can do whatever they want. After the video, the spawn was litterally transformed to a little bombed area to a messy obsidian-diamond-cobblestone and sign mashup. Another interesting thing on this server is that mushrooms are so glitched that they multiply infinitely! Said this, I'm gonna tell you my experience trying to escape the server spawn and find a temporary "safe land".




My Experience

I spawn and the first thing I see is obsidian and signs and... cake? Yeah, apparently there's an easy duplication glitch which allowed all these cakes and diamond blocks (YES DIAMOND BLOCKS) to be all over the place. Then I think: if I already have a lot of, maybe too much, diamonds available, I need to find wood, cobblestone and iron!


After 15 minutes I found all the resources necessary to get the diamonds. 30 Minutes later (Yeah cause the server lagged so much i kept on falling off the obsidian "table") I am now full-diamond. The next step was divided in 2 options : find an highway or go with the infamous glitchy boats of beta. Fortunately I found an highway and I started WALKING to the end of it. 1.5k blocks and player activity was still evident. Untill I arrived at 6k blocks of distance from spawn and there was little to nothing player activity. I could say that I successfully escaped spawn from 2beta2t. I even made a video about it!

HERE THE VIDEO I MADE ON THE HIGHWAY!
