Do you guys think Blockland will ever get updated again at some point?

[Greek2me]

Didn't Rotondo confirm an update with new hats and such?  If he did, that's in itself saying an update will indeed come.

[NessNet]

Hooray for an update!

There was literally an update today.

There was literally an update today.

But not the feature update people are waiting for, this was a hotfix.

Kind of ironic because the removal of maps and addition of shaders was supposedly to modernize blockland and allow for major updates that maps held back.  But the game is old and we got our moneys worth so im not complaining.

I will be playing for a very long time

blockheads with limbs sounds gross

We had them in the Retail Beta, they looked great but because of the Lego copyright scare, we lost them.

I do not see an issue with adding  a second model or new limb parts, so say you could have floating arms and limbed legs or the other way around.

It would be just another way of customizing your character.

At least half of these can be implemented as add-ons.

voxel terrain, unless added in through the engine and optimized, will literally be no different than placing 4x4 cubes everywhere and using up a metric buttload of bricks.

Exactly why I said it would be a major update.


Who knows, Badspot probably tinkers with Blockland and has tons of unreleased builds.
Maybe one has partially implemented voxel terrain, an attempt at replacing octree with a more advanced building system (though it would probably break all the existing brick based addons).

Who knows for sure.
