EVERYTHING ABOUT THIS GAME IS THE BEST EVER

<3

Sorry, I get excited.  I haven't been able to play for 20 months now.. I will be back on in 4 months.


Friends and building
I'd rather play blockland over a lego company game because that makes me seem a bit more childish.
Plus bl allows cursing and stuff so yeah.

Because it's a good outlet for coding and is unique in that way. I can program in many different languages, but in every language, the mindset is the same. The way you structure your code for example. It is something that needs to be learnt, and constantly maintained.

Plus I've made a fair bit of friends here.

im here forever :^)

but in reality, the only thing keeping me here is boss battles server and visos randomizer, mainly boss battles though because its fun and the people there can be decent.

because.

you can check out any time you like, but you can never leave

It would be more interesting to see what makes new players leave so fast. Blockland sold like 5 times more keys in the last 3 years than in all time before that, yet there are less players online on average.

Something's definitely going wrong here.

They're joining the wrong servers so it instantly makes it a first impression of the game but some don't realize that all servers are the same

plus some servers are filled to the brim with add-ons, causing a 30-minute loading time




but it would be helpful to know

I think the downloads could be much faster. Almost all files new players need are on the cdn, but even the cdn download is... slow. It's not the fault of the cdn, blockland uses s3 which should be able to keep up with whatever your bandwidth is.

Maybe badspot should dabble with parallel/threaded downloads and stuff like this. The actual size of those 4000 files you download is only a few MB.



My friends, all the things I've learned while I've been here and all the fun moments I had and still have.

I find the game to be fun. That and I have projects I need to finish XD.
