Author Topic: A new Blockland update Badspot?  (Read 2629 times)

For the love of god Badspot, release a update instead of encouraging people to vote for Blockland on the Steam summer sales.
/title

Why? I literally dont understand the problem here.

a new engine is out of the question
building is fine
adding hand models would stir angryness, and make the blockhead's arms look extremely stretched out
bringing back maps is also out of the question

Add hand models on tools/weapons

lol

For once I'd actually support the hands on models, 1st person only though, if there only a way to adapt colors and the two types of hands.

It's more eye candy, I think it's nice.

Add the option "none of the above"

1: Move over to an other engine
You can't change an engine by going "Hmm let's see what engine I want now: Torque, Unreal, Source, Unity ... oh let's go with CryEngine 3 this time"
If he wants to change engine he has to recode EVERYTHING. And with everything I mean not a single block of code would be untouched.
It took Badspot more than 7 years to get where it is now, and that not counting the years he spend before it was released.
He can't copy anything, it would mean he has to start over completely.
Changing the engine would be like ripping out a persons spine, then replacing it with a stick.

2: Improve building
Blockland has one of the best building mechanics I have ever seen.
It may be more difficult to master than let's say Minecraft, but if you do master it it becomes a natural flow.
My friends who I only recently got into Blockland are most of the time amazed by my speed and accuracy of placing bricks.
If you want improvements in building, then request an addon for it, you can do that in Blockland you know.

3: Add hand models on tools/weapons
Why? Just why does Badspot need to do that?
You already can add hand models on weapons, there are tons of addons that do that!
Duelling Weapons for example.

4: Bring back maps
Click me for perfect arguments on why they can't come back


Now, you are probably a troll because of that stupid poll you made, but I don't care.
I loved doing this
Now do something decent with your life and contribute to this great community

3: Add hand models on tools/weapons
This is really useful!

Also, first person view models?

I'd really like to see an improvement to lights (distance and number visible) or vehicle physics.

These things take time, though. I'm pretty sure making a thread to let us know Blockland is on sale will not detract from how much work is being done.

This is really useful!

Also, first person view models?
Why do you think it's useful? It doesnt add anything to the game besides a hand.

"Move over to another engine"
i really hope you realize you can't just do this

Oh my gosh! Wow! Why didn't anyone else request this yet?!

...

This argument is only applicable if Badspot re-did Blockland on an even older engine, like Quake II.

I noticed. You start from scratch and port all of your hard earned work.

Where's the "nothing" option.
