Author Topic: Blockland is becoming more of a realistic FPS engine than a building game (rant)  (Read 9154 times)



what, is my choice of games funny or something?

No what's funny is that you feel like you go on Blockland and the only choice you have is to play on a DM server.

I see this statement and raise you the sheer mind-blowing amount of FPS based addons and suggestions.

I see this statement and raise you the sheer mind-blowing fact that this is still a building game, people still make Add-Ons specifically for building, and people are always building something new. You're acting like Blockland revolves around Deathmatches and what-not - when it's just the players who are the "problem," making tons of DM servers.

This is just the monthly topic we get about someone complaining about the lack of quality servers and/or generic FPS servers in this case.

Cybertails, if Apple releases an iPad and someone figures out how to run Ubuntu on it, it doesn't make the iPad a Linux machine.

Users creating content for a game doesn't overpower the official original game itself. Don't join FPS servers > problem solved.

There is no overflow of deathmatches. No more than there ever was, possibly even less than there used to be. Guns are guns.

Don't be so melodramatic about shaders and add-ons.


i like blockland TDMs. This is a sandbox game, you need to deal with the fact that the thing that people like has the most servers. If everyone liked doge family love rps then there would be a bunch of doge family love rps, but instead people like deathmatches. be grateful we don't have a stuffload of stuffty love rps.

I agree with OP. I would love to see more popular free build servers. But you have to keep in mind people want to make DM's and people want to play DMs.

what the forget no. that's not what i'm implying at all

i'm trying to say i won't play blockland if i feel like playing a dm, there are /much/ better options.

I don't think theres really alot of game-modes we could make that isn't about killing or rping

Really

all I can think up is building and digging

Thats why I laughed, because actually there are an excess of other servers you could join all of good quality. You did imply that I'm afraid.

Really

Leave the creative side to creative people lolo.

I've already seen a number of new ideas that I can't wait to see released. Not that I'm at liberty to discuss it.

Because the amount of ipad/linux users and ipad/ios users would be even at least, or outweighing in iOS' favor.
in BL's case linux unfunnily outweighs iOS by a loving landslide.
bad comparsion 0/10 F minus minus
No what's funny is that you feel like you go on Blockland and the only choice you have is to play on a DM server.
and it's more funny because it's true
point me to at least five available good nonpassworded servers that aren't FPS demakes to even get close to proving me wrong

what the christ do shaders have to do with addons

I'd rather have love RPs than countless TF2 remakes

for example..?

and i know there's other servers.

once again, if i want to play a dm i'll go and play something else.

There have always been a load of guns ripped from other games. Welcome to awareness

No not at all. Present some evidence that is true. I think you are overreacting. I don't believe DMs outweigh BL at all. Freebuild certainly does.

for example..?

... are you guys being serious? I told you I'm not at liberty to discuss it. Go harass Port if you are curious into one of the projects.
