why do people think more players will mean they are all nooby 8 year olds?
the ratio of age and noobiness wont change from what we have now.

just more servers to play on, and i dont have to run into you people as much :D

The reason we don't like your generic guns is because they bring nothing new to the game. If you're just making ANOTHER model that can shoot generic bullets that do everything generically, it's unoriginal and gets boring. On the other hand, look at things such as the boxing gloves, stunt plane, portal gun, guitar, hookshot. They all add a new element to the game, and that's what we want.

couldn't have said it better. that is exactly what i was talking about. we need more cool, new, fresh, and exciting things in blockland, not more rifles with no flat-shading and is over-powered and puts the Mini gun out of a job. >.>

I completely agree. This is the same reason I don't play generic MMOs (WoW, FlyFF, almost every other MMO). They bring nothing new.

I also agree with this. Also, the number of younger players may decrease, as time always goes forward at a fixed rate. So, the average rate of young and old players come in, aswell as the younger players get older. On a side note, age != maturity, there are a lot of dumbstuff 16~18 year olds at my school...

I disagree. Many of the first, oh, 500 IDs were mature because they were on BL before. You have a 100:300 noobs:not-noobs ratio or whatever. Then, people outside of BL started joining, so by the 1000th player, it's more like 250:750; 2000, it's 800:1200, etc, until you get to the point where there are some 5000 players and far more noobs.

Yeah, we do end up with more servers, more variety, and more players. That's still true.

I'm working on a Melee playertype, new (but still Blocko) model, animations, and otherwise, so stay tuned.

Plus, weapons!

And randomized combos!

i would love to see more interesting minigames like trenchwars and jailbreak.

blaman · June 08, 2008, 10:09:53 PM

I love trench wars... I think it was a very innovative add-on when it was first put out
