Well actually I was only saying we've answered your problems and you've never noticed.

Either way, either of them will do, just bring 'em over so they can see what they think blows Blockland out of the water really just shows how similar the games are.

Or something along those lines.

Though your minifigs do look dumb.

Aww, too bad.

Maybe next time, than.

I get what alot of you are saying. I get what your saying.

Everyone says Blockland sucks is because of that pricetag. No 13 year old will pay 20 dollars for a game. So they go to roblox where they can play for free.

And dont go complainong about how every game you play is crap. Alot of the builders are stupid kids who take models from the Roblox Studio "Toolbox". And then other stupid 13 year old kids go and find this stupid mash-up fun. THen the 5% of players who know better are out there trying to get the better games more popular, but they utimately fail, because all of these stupid kids are going and thinking that climbing a ladder is fun

And who said Lua had to be easy? As long as it works and you can learn it, im fine with Lua.

And heres to everyone who complains about the building style: Try using the tools in Studio. THose tools work almost exactly the same as yours. Online building isnt the best way to try out building.

OH, and the bloopers? Same thing. STupid videos turn into kids going "OMG that game is awesome" and ultimately joining.

Then how the hell do they play their HALOZ and BRAWLZ?

Eh, I guess I'm picking a fight for the sake of picking a fight. I really have no problem with ROBLOX. I'm quite sick of people bringing it up here. All it does is bring a big fight.

You do have a point with the free thing, though.

Replace 13 year old with 8 year old and I agree with most of what you are saying.

Wel, For one, Those are console games, last time I checked, Computers werent connected to TVs

That doesn't mean they don't cost money....

Wow, DID YOU EVEN READ THE REST OF MY POST?
Also, that doesn't change the fact that they cost money, in fact, thrice as much as Blockland.

I digress. This entire stiuation is pissing me off.

^I concur
Just like they said in the page before
Roblox's community is VERY noobish
But the game itself never gets old
Its like Ragdoll's and legos

The fact that building online in Roblox sucks, as stated by you, is what makes the game suck.
See my other post for a better explanation.

Roblox is... diffrent, compared to roblox. But the thing about Roblox is it allows anyone to go and build their own server and go online and do stuff, while Blocklands demo..doesnt. Roblox will always beat blockland because the whole game is free, unless you want to upgrade your account. Here, you only get a demo. Its annoying. I just tried the demo. ITs alright, but all the keys and stuff gets annoying. I had a hard time building because it would be easier to drag the brick instead of having to move it little by little.

Of course, your game is a bit more stable. But roblox is still in alpha.

And to everyone who complains about the immature kids..Roblox is advertised as a safe game. You can swear and do whatever you want here, but Roblox wants their game to be safe. Thats why roblox has over 250,000 members, and you guys dont.

And those who complain about the suckky servers: Since half of the players are kids, they make very bad games. You need to go to the best built places in order to see what Roblox really is. IF you want to see, go to People and search up "Miked" Hes one of the best.

And dont get me started on in-game coding. I hear you guys are ripping that from Roblox, if your Wikipedia article is correct. Lua is good to use. People are creating RPGs and PAintball, minigame worlds ETC with Lua. You cant beat that.

Scream at me all you want.


OMG I wish we could do that, oh wait we can, and our add-ons actually have things like I don't know textures, sounds, icons, quality. But those aren't important to you guys because you have gameplay, wait no you don't clicking to fly, lag all the time, and a sucky building system.



So lets compare




Gameplay:   
Blockland: Easy to learn building system, first person where you can actually see your weapon, easy to control cars,planes,boats that actually go on water. Learining curve: 10 mins
Roblox: A gay as hell third person view to first person view thing, very hard to learn building system,stupid way to fly/drive. Learning Curve: 1-1 1/2 hour(s)


Add-ons:
Blockland: Are members actually care to texture and add icons to weapons, and I don't know over all quality to the add-ons.
Roblox: Some very crappy add-ons, un-textured spheres as rocket lauchers, three boxes shoved to geteher to form a pistol, and crappy item icons OH MY!

Graphics:

Blockland: A pretty good looking game, but it aint no Half-Life.
Roblox: Not bad just a little under Blockland.



Online:
Blockland: A pretty good community, hard for some people to actually figure out how to host ( Not my self )
Very good RPG servers and other speacial things such as Cops and Robbers, Rpgs with wood cutting, minig and more, and even pirate DMs.
Roblox: Some pretty cool servers if there is not any lag which there is about 50% of the time, such as a war between a squad of fighter ships vs a frigate. Easy to host but lag kills the fun, Community is just Bull stuff.


Over All:
Blockland: Easy to learn very fun game.
Roblox: Fustrating hard to learn game. ( Lol just like C++ )

Over All:
Blockland: Easy to learn very fun game.
Roblox: Fustrating hard to learn game. ( Lol just like C++ )Not quite, it took me 30 minutes just to learn how to play this game

Sure it took you 5 mins... I doubt one server had planes, cars, and building, along with people who actually where nice enough to help you, keep your biased opinions to your self and grow out of being such a fanboy.

Mine is......

Also, We have the moat Epic RPG of all time (see:PPT), we made the paintball gun about 6 months ago, and what is the point of a game about build where you can't even be online while your building? you may argue that you can build when online, but it's confusing and not worth it. Roblox is probably best for those quiet people (like Nate), but not for talkative people.

I gave Roblox a try, I try to do that with everything. I almost became atheist because of my thinking (Trying to look from Lalam's point of view, and a cathlic),however, the game was just too confusing, the servers where too limited, the forums need help ( a good burial would be nice) and general rule of thumb-if you have to pay for any part of it, it's not BETA. BETA=free or only to selective people, not =free or money for some kewl stuff and what really makes the game fun. The curse filter it too harsh. Osht got me banned for two weeks. A mere mention of blockland got me banned even longer.

Roblox2do list:
Forums-HELP THEM!
controls-Make them easy, let us change them
minifig-really. I have nightmares.

After that, I don't know. After jsut shy of a week of playing a gave up after 15 challenges, 1 theam parks, and only 4 Badmin Minigame.

Lso, they really need to rethink the GUI and controls. THEY'RE HORRIBLE!
