Hypixel's last Skywars update was in July 27th, 2020 Mineplex's (bedrock) last Skywars update was Aug 11, 2020
Hypixel is so many times bigger than Mineplex, has also a dozen if not more devs and other developmental figures and tools that allow them to release updates much quicker across their whole server, and a lot more money. They also do not have a Bedrock server they have to split their resources to. Mineplex has only one developer for Bedrock, and little additional people to help with releasing an update as often as Hypixel. There are also more issues with the server that said developer isn't responsible for fixing. Things such as worse infrastructure which is why it is getting worked on right now. We get very little updates, but it is understandable to a degree. We definitely need more developers, though. Also, if you were to go on the forums of Hypixel, you would see quite a lot of people complaining about Hypixel's problems and lack of updates for their games. You can't satisfy everybody and big servers still have their issues. Bottom line though is that it's really unfair to compare Minecraft's biggest multiplayer server with what is now, presently, a very small server. It would make a lot more sense to compare Mineplex to a server that has an active playerbase similar in size. edit: bruh i misread i thought the hypixel update was most recent >.> people like to compare the two anyway for other stuff
