Your Server Sucks (and here's why)

[Sleven]

GSF terrain have nothing to do in a TDM that doesn't include vehicles. And for a TDM that do include vehicles I'd like to refer to my previous post.

GSF Terrain is for nothing good except for vehicle TDMs and vehicle TDMs are not the optional TDM. They tend to end with just "long vehicle transportation and death on arrival" stuff. The majority of the combat will still take place outside of the vehicle and thus vehicles are just a secondary matter when it comes down to the actual TDM. Consequently the TDM no longer actually can be called a vehicle TDM as the vehicles are just dead time.

On top of that I'd like to add that (if I'm not mistaken) GSF terrain bricks are functional as ramps and thus make rampjumping possible which makes the whole TDM a silly jumpfest where you can travel from one place to the other in seconds and also leave your opponents or whatever behind. You also can not build on the bricks, which leads to the fact that people will want to reach the flat surfaces where cover may be found. But if that's so.. why even have terrain if the combat doesn't depends on it. < Where did I get that :/

I have no idea what you're saying about brickscaping. Brickscaping have a lot more terrainmaking possibilities than GSF terrain and also get rid of rampjumping.

I've never been a fan of these huge warfare TDMs and it seems to you that those are the only acceptable ones. GSF terrain is only good for environments.. something that blockland can't achieve for stuff and still can't do with the GSF. I would stick to structures made by men. Not necessarily interiors, just.. buildings

I think they died after the Bedroom got removed, but Family RPs is where cnai b doge came from.

i've not been hosting mine recently because
- it's frustrating
- family RPs are decreasing in popularity
- it gets boring fast
- i'm busy doing other stuff
i might host it more soon, though

It's true about the Assault Rifle and Battle Rifle, They both have More advantages than the other.

Somewhat off-topic, but if Bushido really wants these better team servers, a good portion of us have visited his server, why doesn't he release some of his maps and private add-ons, like the train and power ups. I'd be fully willing to host a dedicated TDM\CP\whatever server for the community's enjoyment. I'm not shure what his stance to that would be, but I'm just throwing it out there. Maybe if people saw and emulated his building style and thinking prosess on TDM builds, more high quality servers would appear

warning: didnt look at most pages; i might be posting some redundant bs

completely agree with tight hallways point. seems like almost all buildings in blockland built for tdms are way too cramped - emulating lego style of unreasonable proportions

you seem to be giving the average blocklander too much credit though. most (not trying to put myself above the crowd) cant really comprehend most issues, and even after playing in a badly planned map still cant put a finger on whats wrong (if they notice that it blows)

i think the largest contributor to these problems is that almost all blockland players are immature, and dont really give a stuff if theyre playing on the same boring game style they have every day for the past 3 years, then in turn create a generic map themselves

Servers would be less unique. They'd all get boring real fast because they are the same style.
This whole argument is pointless; Nobody LOOKS for good servers anymore because everyones too busy WHINING about the BAD ones.

What I get with people's problem is that it's time consuming. An answer to that would be to find a way to build simplistic and make it look good. The thing about space is right, too. Incredibly MASSIVE space makes things a whole lot nicer.

I would try out a ton of cool ideas I have, but I always end up getting a headache whenever I'm building, or I get some kind of pseudo-ADD. Also, my internet is stuff now, so it's practically useless to even try.

Do a rant about Knife TDMs and half-baked zombie servers. next.

[quadilious]

im glad this topic was made, i notice all these and more all the time.
if i ever get to hosting some of my builds, i know what does and does not work and what i should need to do to accomplish a good server.

[shyGriff]

Please don't.

why? you're not forced to join it

[DrenDran]

yeah i'll verbally kneecap jail RPs next

those things need to die. like, now.

Seriously though im gonna make a low grav space melee

[Bushido]

it's gonna be a pain in the ass to actually hit eachother

lowgrav servers typically use guns to offset that
