Loading Files

[Bisjac]

its not the hosts fault

yes it is. no internet can download files fast from the host. its capped.
hosts suck for having 100s of addons they dont need or use.

cant RTB assist in giving us addons (that at least are on rtb) when joining a server?
that could free up tons of upload from the host.

This happened before the update.

[Katadeus]

I normally stick around for around 500
I find something else to do in the meantime and I figure if one host is going to make me download something another will too.

I get amused when I get a Blockhead with a high 30k ID (no id racism intended) who comes into my server and complains about the download. Then threatens to go to another server.

I hate people who do this.
They join, and then leave instantly without saying why.
I assume it's because they saw the number of files.

One of blockland's recent updates allowed use of the CDN, which is that amazon thing badspot has.

Same concept, except the service is provided for by badspot.

the only file ive asked about in a server is VCE

Basically, I want the server to be able to specify another website that the client should download from instead, similarly to Source.

It's only because them children do not have the Patience for loading this long.

What were you hosting anyway?

[Port]

I usually stick around forever, even with file counts such as 25000.

it is unacceptable to expect a user to wait 40 min to join a blockland server. whether its the 100th game hes downloaded from, or the 1st.

dont pass the blame onto the client-sides for not collecting all the spam that hosters love to use.

What if that many are required?Some popular servers on the top list have usually around 1k or 2k addons to download.

No server has 1K addons that are necessary. That would be a pretty damn chaotic game if it required 1,000 addons to play.

People like to collect thousands of addons and enable them all at once,  then when they host a game that only needs a couple of them they're too lazy to disable the ones they don't need.

Recently I started using my laptop that at the time had 0 addons installed, and tried to join Eksi's server. I left almost immediately because there was over 2,000 god damn files to download. I stuff you not. 2,000 files.

[Bisjac]

i have never even seen a game that has even needed more then 50 at at the most, at once.
and even then, many go unused by both the host and the users.

a server isnt good simply because it has many addons. you all need to learn that.
maybe this nooby fad of collecting and spamming in every server might stop so people can actually play blockland again.

or y'know you can desable all the useless add-on, or use default bricks, that help alot!
