The next BIG thing?

[Yop We Good]

Is it me or is blockland losing creativity? Although I've noticed that even 40kers have intermediate building skills. What I have been thinking about is the next big thing. I'm noticing that the server list has the same old stuff. Jail rp, family rp, school rp, city RPG etc. then came elms lob RPG with a GUI and that is dead too. A few friends and I are willing to take a challenge. We want a few ideas from you guys that you had stored in the back of your head because you thought it was stupid or not possible. Comment below those ideas and we will make them possible. And we will give you credit and admin on the server

The issue is because it takes effort to create an original server that people aren't always willing to put forth. Though, there are more servers like this coming about. One thing I'm looking forward to if we get greenlit is perhaps a stronger modding community. More people that are experienced with other languages and perhaps modding other games to come make contributions to Blockland.

An example of an original server that you want is my Platform Hyperwars server:
http://forum.blockland.us/index.php?topic=233138.0
I spent 1.5 months (about 3 hours a day) making a gamemode and a futuristic weapon pack with 13 original weapons, which were modeled and scripted by me. And nobody is coming to my server.
It looks like popular, well-known players can use boring, widespread add-ons like the Tier+Tactical packs. Hosts like me who are not well-known have to work harder to get players, and cannot use unoriginal ideas.

I don't really consider this exactly original. It's a TDM that plays like any else but with different guns and maps. What the OP is looking for is a gamemode different from others.

Well, speedkart is a new thing that is very popular now.

does this count as original
i've never seen another server which is completely open and solely based around exploring islands

You advertise yourself every chance you get, don't you?

its losing creativity because people like you care so much to complain, but don't do anything, i personally don't really care to make the 'next big thing', but for people who care, they should be doing something instead of complaing.

but i do agree, blockland servers are getting boring.

I think there are three reasons we rarely see new ideas. First, it is hard for most people to think of new things to do. Second, on the rare occasion that someone DOES think of something new, it is unlikely that the person will have the great amount of determination that is required to make it. Thirdly, on the rare occasion that the first two things happen, the person will also have to learn how to host a server and keep players interested in it . These 3 troubles are what hold back new ideas from coming to life.

In my opinion the gamemode is ruined because of our vehicle physics.
