Ben Garney is kompressor in case you didn't know, and yeah he is kind of on and off with working on blockland it seems.

like stufftons??? hell, only the major fixes and additions/removals are documented, there's tons more minor fixes

Minor fixes don't count as fixes. If you think about we haven't have an update since v21. Everything is revisions.

I totally agree... World of Warcraft makes more updates... thats sad :3

well if you want to get technical we haven't had an "update" because we no longer update by version, so we'll never have an update unless we go back to per-version updating in the future

yes, minor fixes are fixes, people just disregard them because it's impact on the game isn't clearly visible. plus we have our steam update chugging along, there's a major revision for you.

i know you're probably joking but if you aren't holy stuff take some time to read what you just wrote again
wow gets more updates because they have a bigger team and a playerbase in the multimillions

[chubaka452]

-what he said-

Why don't they hire more people :s

[Titanium Man]

Why don't they hire more people :s

are you loving kidding me?

[QuadStorm]

Why don't they hire more people :s

I'm 100% sure if this was possible, this would have been done ages ago.

[bob12378]

anyone noticed that he said maps should come back in like v20?
lolwut

[ChexGuy331]

I totally agree... World of Warcraft makes more updates... thats sad :3

World of Warcraft has one of the largest MMO playerbases and a forgetton of money behind it. If you think it's sad that a game with a much higher budget and an infinitely larger development team has more updates, you're kind of stupid.

Why don't they hire more people :s

Because Blockland has been a 1-2 man effort since the very beginning and is an independent project. All of its funding comes from Badspot.

Christ man, it's like you don't know how anything works.

[Bisjac]

kompressor was never really a full time blockland dev.
hes just a torque god i believe, and helped baddy a ton with a handful of optimizations. so he gets credited plenty.

i dunno the full story though

[Crystalwarrior]

why is nobody complaining about how water looks like in V21 though
I mean holy stuff look at this:

Squideey's Ocean Pack map



My attempt at replicating the same amount of prettiness.

It looks worse because Water is actually just a fxPlane instead of waterObject or something, and I had to sacrifice the ground so when you go in the water you won't see the ground/sand/etc.
and you can basically see forever below.

Oh, and another thing

please fix this already somehow omg

[General]

Why do people even choose the "No" option!? maps were excellent and they would be even better with shaders.
