Okay. Here's my two cents on the new update and all that kindah stuff. I've played Blockland since early 2009 (my first ID was around 14k, I think?) And anyway, the game has always been great and it's general theme is based on YOUR creativity. What is there from BadSpot's side to add to the game, more? You got the bricks and you also got the tools, go ahead and create. If all of you guys think that you can actually just mod everything into the game then why don't you? This game's been running since 2007 if I am correct and a game can't keep getting updates for so many years and it's actually a miracle it has and that BadSpot had still cared. The Torque Engine is a fossil to begin with and getting too many updates can be really, really, hard. Someone runs out of ideas at some point and he can't really keep going like it's easy. It's not that easy to maintain a game for ALL those years and if anyone actually thinks he could pull something like this off, then go ahead and try. But if there's something to be suggested it can be dropped
here. And let's face it, the interiors weren't really that needed and weren't that useful either way either. I think someone made some kind of terrain editor that anyone can actually use in here. But back then according to what I remember, nagged Badspot about shaders. Even though BadSpot had explained that shaders are not able to be made due to the cave-age engine, he did still actually update the game WITH the shaders. So what's the problem now with all the old-school blocklanders nagging Badspot about no interiors?
Besides that, nowhere in any of Blockland's details is it stated that the game will receive lifetime updates.
Blockland is a non-linear sandbox game with no set goals, giving players the freedom to design and construct elaborate structures.
Q: Is this an MMO?
A: Nope. It's a regular you-host-a-game-and-people-join-it sort of game with real FPS controls. With a good connection, 32 players can easily fit on a single server. Several users have had 64 or even 100 players on a single dedicated server.
And nowhere is it stated in the greenlight pages that the game is gonna receive lifetime updates. I know this thread is pretty much dead but I felt the need to post my opinion on this matter.
