Author Topic: Important, non-shader related, V21 complaints.  (Read 2902 times)

Shaders are all nice and all, just people like to complain because their stuff computers can't handle the awesomeness.

The main issue I have is the whole "Starting A Game" setup.



Gamemodes

- Freebuild: Probably the most utterly useless gamemode ever made, if you want default everything, go ahead, but other than that Baddy is just trying to make people host useless servers filled with rubbish.

- Mansion Whatever: Kinda cool, its whatever, Baddy didn't need to waste his time with it.

- Pirate DM: Cool-ish, always fun to be a pirate but like all these gamemodes it doesn't promote building, which is what needs to be done.

- Tutorial: The only needed Gamemode, its not bad, I'm okay with it.



The Custom Gamemode

- Since this is what everyone should use for everything, I guess at least its there. But the whole menu is kind of annoying. It does look a bit better, but enabling things is quite annoying and slow. I liked the categories where I could enable/disable an entire category. The Advanced section acts like you raise the brick limit, but you can't.



Piano Sounds

- The most important loss is the amazing menu piano sounds. For whatever reason they are no longer here for us to enjoy.



The Menu Style
I have the feeling the menus have been update to be more kid-friendly.
The stuff that invaded the somehow once cool roblox is now invading blockland.

...

Has anyone else noticed you can hear the sound of building on the main menu?

Finally someone who agrees with me on the piano sounds.

I like the brick sounds, but just hearing the piano tunes as a scrolled down the menu will be missed.

Meh, use custom gamemode, RTB mod manager to set add-on list, and console to fix gamemode name in map list to whatever you want

Yes

No ... .
He's right.
Noone wants only default stuff.

Some of the better servers I've been on have been default only.

It's better than having nothing at all.

They are out there, I like default bricks in general, but also in general, with no add-ons the server is rubbish.

Awww. Damn, I was hoping to actually have fun instead of just building all the time.

forget, let's remove events too, those aren't building.

Why not the rocket launcher? Blowing up buildings isn't building!

Let's remove admins too, they aren't building.

Let's remove fun too, because that isn't building.

Invalid. Just because it could be worse doesn't mean it couldn't be better.

The add-on choosing is terrible. Giant text, no sorting, not even a "select all" button.

Builds are always more impressive when they're made entirely out of default bricks.

Look at this:

That's made entirely out of default bricks. One of the best looking builds out there too. The only logical add-ons to have installed on a freebuild server is brick add-ons anyway, weapons and other garbage aren't needed at all, and you can build amazing things without custom bricks anyway.
