Author Topic: blockland for other gaming systems  (Read 1601 times)

Baddy should make blockland availible for other gaming systems aswell. Like the ipad and the xbox and wii. This would halt updates for a very long time but i think it would be worth it.

Anybody else?

Blockland does not fit the console market.

how would the controls work

No thank you.
that's what people said about greenlight and look what happened

but yeah pc to console ports don't usually work well

The only people who said that are elitist ID whores that think the community should be small so they can stroke themselves for playing a video game longer than other people.

This

and also we are busy with greenlight atm
and I think we will be busy for quite a while.

Not to be dismissive or anything, but topics like these have started, and then nothing happened. The end.

Controls for XBox 360:

Lbrown townog: Walking
Rbrown townog: Looking
RTrigger: Jets.
LTrigger: Pew pew
LButton: 1 Stud Down. If no ghost brick active, crouch.*
RButton: 1 Stud Up. If no ghost brick active, jump.*
^Problems may arise if no jets and must build, you would need to bring up the brick and put it back and bring it up again to jump. Also it would be impossible to place a brick somewhere where you must crouch.
*The XBox Guide button could toggle supershift, which would also affect those to use their full body alternatives. I know there's also buttons for 3x stud switch, but it's just another sacrifice.
DPad: Move the brick around.
A: Place brick. If no ghost brick active, change active item.
B: Cancel place brick / Cancel paint. If no ghost brick active, toggle player lights.
X: Change active brick.
Y: Change active paint.
Select button would bring up the chatbar with a onscreen keyboard for brown townogs or Dpad.
Start button would bring up a menu with multiple buttons leading to playerlist, admin menu, brick selector menu, options, save/load, disconnect, emotes, whateverotherbuttonstherecoul dbe.

Controls wouldn't be that much of a problem.
Making the GUIs work coherently with the controller is.

Rotating the brick with controls is not going to be possible, the best juice is to rotate your character and just place the brick again.

You wouldn't be building on the xbox, just playing tdms and stuff. That could actually work.

But it would be way too much work, plus you need a publisher to get it on xbox and that costs lods of emone. Unless you want in that ghetto indie section.

If you're not going to build, a modified version of Leet's controls would work.
Left Stick - Moving
Right Stick - Looking
L1/Left Bumper - Zoom/Look*
R1/Right Bumper - Crouch
L2/Left Trigger - Fire
R2/Right Trigger - Jet
L3/Left Click - Paints
R3/Right Click - Weapons
D-Pad - Inventory control
Cross/A - Jump
Circle/B - Light
Square/X - Toggle View
Triangle/Y - Sit
Select - Chat
Start - Menu

*When in Zoom/Look mode (L1) You can use up and down on the D-Pad to zoom in or out, and left and right to use free look. The right stick would just rotate your entire body along with the free look.

Also, this would cost too much to be published. These are just controls if controller functionality was added.

Except for when you play on other servers?
