Agree.

* People will finally build again with bricks. That's actually what blockland is supposed to be.

I doubt anyone will be driven to change how they play too much by this.

* Alot of other things will be possible. I think Lua was going to be implented too... good Idea for those who wanna learn a easier scripting language

I suppose you could get the drag-and-drop style of Gamemaker or its basic coding language, but there's no reason to implement a second scripting language for the very few people who are too dumb to figure out Torque when they're fully capable of working out Lua.

so you can code for Roblox and blockland at the same time.

The people who want to do that will have to put up with the agony of learning two scripting languages.
Sevara:
Actually, guys, Kompressor DID say that vehicle physics would be getting tweaked as part of the update or down the line. They really jumped the gun on the announcement, though. Over two months later, and all we've seen are a handful of teaser pics and videos- this update would probably be going over better if they had waited 'til just a couple weeks before release.
And I'm pro-update; I already play exclusively on slate/plate maps.
Awdax:
He said it was a possibility, and they might work on that. He didn't guarantee it. People who don't want the update though seem to have it stuck in their head that they won't live up to doing that, and saying that removing terrains and interiors cause problems with updates is just an excuse to calm people down and make them not think the developers want graphics over gameplay.
I think it would have been much better if the next update wasn't adding shadows and shaders along with the removal of terrains and interiors, but instead something that adds to the gameplay so people don't think Badspot and kompressor are choosing graphics over gameplay.
