This one seems a bit better

 http://www.futureshop.ca/en-CA/product/asus-asus-k75-17-3-laptop-black-amd-a10-4600m-750gb-hdd-8gb-ram-windows-8-k75de-bh01-cb/10227299.aspx?path=98bc40b10de8f98be2e878c3e1239be4en02

So you recommend this laptop over the one in the OP? What makes this one better? They are about the same price. (well this one is $100 off)

Yes but it's a desktop GPU

And the one in this laptop is...? Better for gaming?

AMD Radeon 7770 1gb graphics card.

I'm guessing that's a step up from what this laptop has?

I'm using a 7770 and that runs 50K bricks at max shaders pretty damn smooth.

I don't know what a 7770 is.

Would this computer run Blockland well?

http://www.bestbuy.com/site/HP+-+ENVY+17.3%26%2334%3B+Laptop+-+6GB+Memory+-+750GB+Hard+Drive+-+Black/6914563.p?id=1218813786446&skuId=6914563

Must be able to:
>Run shaders on high or maybe even max
>Play with settings on max or at least high
>View 25k-50k bricks without a bunch of lag
>Blockland runs fast in general

Do you think this computer will work fine? Will it be able to do these things? If not, what computer should I get for around $650 or less? Is there a better deal somewhere? (I am not considering building my own computer so don't even mention that)

Also, would this computer be able to run other games fast, such as Minecraft?

Drama / Re: Herecy:An abusive Admin

« on: February 13, 2013, 12:50:15 AM »

Jasa does not know how to administrate his server's community.

I don't recommend spending any length of time playing in his server.

http://forum.blockland.us/index.php?topic=224095.0

Don't bump this topic, but nothing in this topic spoke to Jasa, despite the overwhelming evidence, this will not change any time soon.

I think the remaining admins are fine. The only admins that I see there regularly are Swat, Surburb, Knox, Sylvanor, Frosting, Broze, and The Brighter Dark. I think these admins do their job pretty well and are quite nice. I haven't seen any problems for a few days. I think the first two weeks of this server being up weeded out the abusive admins and rule-breakers.

I actually enjoy being at the server now more than I did when it first started, probably due to the idiots being banned in the first week or two. I've noticed that there have been very few people at the server lately, I think more people should come. It's more fun when there is more than 8 or 9 people.

Help / Re: How To Host Dedicated Server?

« on: January 22, 2013, 05:31:27 PM »

Or you could just right click your Blockland shortcut and add " -dedicated" onto the end of the path, click "OK", then run your Blockland.

Once it says your dedicated server is running, go back into the properties and take off the " -dedicated", click "OK" and then run Blockland. Then you join your server.

Drugs won't just have positive side effects but also negative side effects (of course).
Like 50% faster move speed but 50% less health, 40% higher health but 40% slower move speed, etc.

Yeah, but they need to get addicted to it, too.

but what would make players take the drugs in the first place? you should make the drugs add a small boost in like strength or speed.

I agree that it should do something to the player, but I don't think it should be a huge benefit to them. When you take drugs in real life for the first time, it's mainly to see what happens (what it feels like). I think enough players, if not told of its effects, would take them the first time to just experiment. I wouldn't want every player taking drugs just because it has a big benefit to them.

This could also allow for drug dealers to reel in customers and get them addicted to it. If they don't tell them that they will get addicted, then they will get a new customer who will come back for more.



This also gives me the idea of a drug dealer job (if there isn't one already). They get experience from selling drugs to people. I wouldn't allow them to get experience from selling it to the drug brick, but that's your choice. They get a discount on planting drug bricks. The more experience they have, the more drugs they get from each plant and so on.

I have a suggestion.

To make it so the drugs aren't pointless to buy, you should make it so you can get addicted to them. What I mean is when you have taken drugs for a certain amount of times, and then suddenly stop taking them, your player goes through withdrawal. The 'withdrawal' could be:

>Your player's speed decreases (this can include jump height)
>Your hunger decreases quicker (your hunger bar goes down 2, maybe even 3, when you haven't had drugs in a while)

These are just two examples, though. Whatever you choose to be the withdrawal symptom, it needs to be something that will actually make a player have to buy more drugs. When the player starts going through withdrawal, it needs to affect them negatively enough to where they need to get more drugs.

Hopefully this hasn't been suggested yet because I haven't read all of the posts.

Blackhawks are western conference lol.

I know. Me being a Blues fan and the Blackhawks winning a couple Stanley cups recently, you can probably understand why I don't like them and those who are fans of them. For some reason, when a team wins the Stanley cup, random people become fans of that team. But I must say, the Blackhawks have great jerseys. Almost all of the original six teams have great jerseys.
