Author Topic: Blockland has a TV Tropes page, apparently.  (Read 4180 times)


Try not to get lost, team.

It's rather short on tropes, though.
Dueling Games?
There never was no war on Blockland vs roblox.

I never understood that site. Words glued after other words. Sense it makes none.

I'm too sick to look at TVTropes.

Then again, I decided to see what it had to say about Portal 2... and that's when my head started to really hurt...

What the forget is TV Tropes?

Needs more interesting and silly examples

Like Raocow


if we're going to go into the mininuke we should add other downloadable tropes



Gun research: The sheer amount of weaponry on the Blockland Forums would probably blow one's mind. Tier+Tactical doesn't help.
Bottomless Magazines: The classic Blockland arsenal (and weapons based around it) have no need to reload, and even no ammo system. Certain mods get around this, like Rotondo's Zombie Mod.
Everything is a Pinto: Shoot anything. Do it. Chances are, it'll explode. Even if it's a player. Some mods take this even further, with them exploding into gibs.
Good Guns, Bad Guns: The Classic Battle Rifle is clearly an AK-47, despite the name: It's counterpart, the Classic Assault Rifle, is an M-16.
Short Ranged Long Ranged Weapon: "Sniper Duels" generally consist of fights at point-blank with said high powered rifles.
Handcannon: Every other weapon is wielded in one hand. Several are magnums that fire rounds larger then the players head.
Acceptable Breaks from Reality: Physics has completely flown the coop... at least, until you shoot something.
Standard FPS Guns: It's become a trend as of recently.
Downloadable Content: The game's a powerful building tool on it's own, but much of the content comes from the add-ons forum.
Crowning Moment of Funny: A bit meta, but much of the 'complaints' the game gets are from the parents of kids (generally far too young to be online) telling the creator of the game to make the internet more kid-safe. He posts these conversations on the forums, as a mailbag.
Accidental Aiming Skills: Due to the 'traveling' nature of weaponry, many times a player won't so much shoot their target as their target walks into their bullet. Distinctly different then leading your shots.
Bullet Dodges You: Tier+Tactical's RPG has the uncanny ability to fly AWAY from your target. Experienced players learn to just aim at the ground.


etc, etc

What the forget is TV Tropes?

Basically Wikipedia but they break the articles down into phrases representing stuff or something. It's rather pointless.


Version 19 didn't come out in 2010.. did it?

I just checked the Blockland news page, and it did indeed.

ZB

Well, since we're going to count the Tier+Testicle weapons set as though it were a default part of the game,we might as well add:

Aka 47: Blockland's most popular weapons set, the Tier+Tactical, consists almost entirely of weapons taken from various games made by Valve Software, particularly Left4Dead 2.


•GIFT: Many experienced users are ridiculously mean to newer ones.


They are actually pretty accurate
