Fat way to judge people. Some of those who copy are just jealous, but with careful guiding, they could be made into something better. You can't just arbitrarily judge newbies until their motives are full circle, you fool.
this takes some serious optimism.
like you have to be dangerously optimistic to think this.
the chances of what you said happening is approx 0.1%
be realistic here, that's the truth.
Dooble. Just the idea that submitting addons is considered a contribution, makes me sick. The overuse of addons is what ruins the building on blockland. Citation: visit almost any server right now. You people drip with precreated content because you suck.
Gamemodes i have less hate for since they add quite a bit of play, though i still wish people could compliment those addons with a build that took more than an hour to slap together...
i 90% agree with this.
the part i disagree with is his implication (which i might even be wrong and he might actually agree with me, i don't even know) that all addons ruin the building.
i do think there are addons out there that raise the building skill cap like brick packs allowing you to accomplish what is impossible in certain situations. although i'm not a blockland builder so i'm not going to put in too much on the blockland front but i do think there are things there.
ah forget it i might as well bring up gmod examples since i have expertise here and the situation between the two on this point is pretty much identical, darkrp and prop hunt just being larger scale examples of pre created content dripping.
garry's mod has a fairly solid foundation for building just like blockland but with a different purpose.
precision alignment pretty much remedies the situation where you can't do precision perfect building.
there was a situation where people built huge ass vehicles but couldn't use them on servers due to severe rubber banding, multi parenting tool (an addon) came out and managed to reduce prop lag by 95%, allowing so much more to be done in a multiplayer server.
and wiremod came out and ended up being an entirely new level of building, with holograms raising the reduced lag figure up to 98% (!!!)
this meant that 20k moving props could be on server before lag even begins to seep in.
of course i'm not here to talk about why gmod is better because they're two entirely different equally good games. more or less just using it as an example of how addons could improve the base game instead of being a front for precreated garbage. (oh believe me gmod has the same stuff too and i loving loathe it too)
