Template:Server world infoboxSurvival 2 was a major world of the Cyberdog Nation Server and the second survival world, succeeding the long standing Survival world. It was rumored that a new survival world would be created to increase player interest with new players and reduce lag caused by the enormous size of the original world, however no official announcement came until August when it was announced that while the original world would remain online, a new Survival world would be created to launch in September. Finally, on September 2nd, 2017, the Survival 2 world was launched to the public in an interactive Twitch livestream with ReNDoG.[1] The seed of the world was 8960140543346427025.
Announcement
Speculation
Prior to the announcement of the Survival 2 world, there was some speculation as to the creation of a new world, which many players believed due to how long the Survival world had been running as the primary world. The idea of launching a new world was met with some criticism amongst longstanding players, as players felt that the Survival world should remain the primary world on the server given its legacy.
Reveal
The existence of the new world was confirmed in August 2017 by a Discord announcement.[2] In addition, it was confirmed that both worlds would remain on the server to play on, though the Survival 2 world would become the main world for the server. A ReNDoG livestream would be done to open the world on the 2nd of September later that same year.
Livestream and Release
Main Article: Launch of the Survival 2 World
The Survival 2 world was launched via a livestream with ReNDoG, in the form of a story-based stream where viewers along with ReNDoG had to battle the 'dwarves' (played by server moderators and builders), leading up to a grand battle with the Ender Dragon. The tale was told via books, which were handed out before the final battle, but due to an erroneous teleport, all players were killed and the books were subsequently lost.
Getting Around
There were a number of options for travelling around the Survival 2 world. Players could use the /sethome command across the server to return to places as they liked[3], and in addition to this there were a number of public transport options available:
Warps:
A number of areas were publicly available to teleport to with commands, such as:
- /spawn - Took you to Spawn.
- /warp end2 - Took you to the End Portal.
- /warp pigfarm2 - Took you to the Pigman Farm.
- /endfarm - Took you to the Enderman Farm (while in the end dimension.)
- /warp colorful - Takes you to the Colors Event area.
With the closure of the world, these commands do not exist anymore.
Survival 2 Railway Network
Main Article: Survival Railway Network (Survival 2)
The Survival 2 Railway Network (SRN) was a community-operated overworld public transport service that consisted of a number of minecart railway lines across the Survival 2 world. It could be accessed from a number of major builds and settlements through the Survival 2 world, such as Spawn. It was centered in the City of Havana. The SRN also linked smaller builds via Secondary Lines and networks from stations.
Nether Transport Network
Main Article: Nether Transport Network (Survival 2)
The Nether Transport Network (NTN) on Survival 2 was the nether-based counterpart to the Survival 2 Railway Network, which was based on hyper-speed transportation using the mechanic of boats placed on packed ice to get around quickly. Just like the SRN, the NTN could be accessed from a variety of locations across the server.
Key Locations
Since the opening of Survival 2, several majorly notable settlements and building projects have been created[4].
Spawn
Main Article: Spawn (Survival 2)
Spawn was the center point of the Survival 2 world, where the World Border was centered around and where new players joined. Spawn had a number of plots for players to purchase and live in and featured a number of key builds involved in the Launch of the Survival 2 World. Spawn was built in Creative Mode prior to the release of the world.
Havana
Main Article: City of Havana
The City of Havana, based on the Cuban city with the same name, was founded on the same day the new Survival 2 world opened.[5] Originally founded by SRN Spawn Station build team, _edo, Brianetta and darparniox, in response to lack of functionality of Spawn, the city's scope quickly expanded to become the travel hub and culture center of the world.[6] It could be accessed by travelling south of Spawn Station. It was the largest settlement on the server.
In April 2018, ReNDoG toured Havana in a base tour video.[7]
Akkara
Main Article: Akkara City
Akkara City was a city based on a mix between Aztec and Colonial architecture[8] and was founded on the launch of the Survival 2 world simultaneously with Havana, however the city did not open to the public until months later. The project was originally started by William278, mayor of Lackria on the original Survival world, and LAK3RS, who holds the Pioneer rank and was an accomplished builder on the server before the launch of the new world. A decision was made during the opening of the world to open the city in the coordinate center of the world at (0, 0), and an island was built at the location with a connective bridge to commemorate this.
On the 28th of April 2018, Akkara City opened with an organized event and a livestreamed base tour opening with ReNDoG.[9] It was considered to be the second largest settlement on the server, after the City of Havana.
On the 30th of June, 2018, Akkara was toured again by ReNDoG in an update tour.
Closure
On the 14th of October, 2018, it was announced that the Survival 2 world, along with all other existing worlds would be deleted and replaced with the Survival 3 world the following week. On the night of Friday the 19th the world was removed and on the morning of the 20th replaced by the new world along with the update to 1.13: The Update Aquatic.
