why do people hate b4v21?
Køtt:
Reft, you're being ridiculous. Why are you acting like people that play an older version than you is consequential? If you claim new accounts are coming just to play the older version they have to support the artist somewhat by laying and playing regardless of the version. How is any of that consequential?

Wasn't a big chunk of the servers on Slate though? And even then, there were servers where there was nothing creative or unique built, just some baseplates and vehicles scattered about or some default save loaded up, which is still the case to this very day
I don't think maps really affected whether or not people built stuff, it's just that maps filled in for when there would otherwise be nothing built
Also, i recall someone using my GM_Construct map for a nicely built fort wars DM that used the map to it's advantage
So it's definitely not the fault of maps, but of the people themselves just being uncreative

This is straight up a lie. Nearly every server I've played on has implemented terrain bricks or cubescape terrain in some fashion.

Consensus is that terrain bricks are easy to work with, this just sounds like a *you* problem. Also, the hell are you going on about, using your own personal anecdotes just fine but the minute I interject with my opinion it's not good enough? forget off with that bullstuff, I'm sick of hearing about how necessary terrain was to the enjoyment with the game when I've been building terrain maps just fine for years now.

thats another whole point. most of the servers you ever found that were worth staying on were just on slate
it's like joining ten servers and constantly seeing other people's builds with a few small additions to it

??? what v20 servers have you been playing on? absolutely none of them has used terrain bricks to make an entirely-terrain landscape?? what?? did you type this wrong?

i bet you can ask a lot of people and they'd say they would prefer using v20 terrain over manually making brick terrain in v21. it may not be the majority but the chunk of users is still there, and we're providing for them.

when the forget did i say that?? i was simply letting you know that there is, infact, a chunk of players who would prefer v20 terrain over v21 brick-built terrain. I never said you are wrong.
