Today I redownloaded Blockland and ReturnToBlockland. I noticed that most of the stuff is updated and looks nice but it's just not the same. And now RTB is started by pressing two buttons instead of at the main menu. Also I noticed that there aren't as many servers/players or that many "fun" servers. There use to be like death races, tf2 games, mazes, challenge levels, and now there isn't much but RP's. I last played like 2 years ago but I'm starting to play more now. I just don't think the newer blockland is as good as the older versions. :/ Feel free to discuss if you liked blockland when it was older or newer(now) or just other versions. |

V21+the advent of professional hosting servers snuffing out smaller 'fun' servers. |

The people that hosted those fun servers grew up into people that host professional servers. We gotta wait for the next generation of good servers |

That and loving grabble DMs, the lowest form of DM. |

Over the last two years, despite growth in the community, the count players online and servers being hosted has dropped. It's quite disappointing considering how larger the community has become. Consider this weekend: http://blocklandcloud.com/tools/monitor.php?action=day&day=1034 (530 players / 205s) http://blocklandcloud.com/tools/monitor.php?action=day&day=1035 (539 players / 185s) http://blocklandcloud.com/tools/monitor.php?action=day&day=1036 (592 players / 218s) http://blocklandcloud.com/tools/monitor.php?action=day&day=1037 (537 players / 181s) and 2 years ago: http://blocklandcloud.com/tools/monitor.php?action=day&day=306 (752 players / 283s) http://blocklandcloud.com/tools/monitor.php?action=day&day=307 (769 players / 297s) http://blocklandcloud.com/tools/monitor.php?action=day&day=308 (805 players / 292s + 4th highest player count ever) http://blocklandcloud.com/tools/monitor.php?action=day&day=309 (803 players / 279s, on a Monday?) (3rd place for player count is held by the previous weekend) |
