Hey. I'm thinking of getting Blockland because the community seems better and the demo is awesome. ROBLOX is nice, but I'm starting to lose intrest (Mostly because the Games page is filled with crap and the community is full of whining 8-year olds that call people noobs). For the flamers out there who like ROBLOX, I can have my opinion and you can have yours. If I make fun of a game why should you make fun of me? It's not the end of the world if I make fun of a game you like. >_>

There is one thing that upsets me with Blockland, the building system sucks. I think it might be because I need to get used to it, but so far I like ROBLOX's system better. And the physics. I wish blockland had better physics.

Physics were JUST implemented, and the building system is fluid and easy.
Also, physics aren't everything. Blockland was fun before physics.

I fail, XD. And I know the building is easy but it takes a long time to build stuff.

Simpler to do more fine detail in blockland i find.

You can get more bricks in a build without lagging. Builds of up to 60k bricks are feasible on crappy computers, the limit is around 120k bricks and for some that doesn't even lag.

just keep building and eventually you'll figure out what we're talking about



thanks for seeing what all the commotion is about, some of the guys on roblox just come, flame us, and don't even try the game and pass it off as 2d or something

It's easier to build Blockland, you'll see. If I'm correct, you have to switch from some browser window if you want to play the game, and another program to build.

The physics, in my opinion, are more simple. ROBLOX' physics are server sided, so that means the person who's hosting, his computer calculates the physics and sends the information to you, which makes for laggy physics. Blockland's physics are clientsided, which means your computer calculates the physics itself, and Blockland has 5 levels of physics, based on how well your computer can compute physics. Basically, if your computer sucks, you'll have very little or no physics, and if your computer is really awesome, you'll have the best physics.

Also, not many people (at least with common sense) enjoy hating ROBLOX. In fact, some people play ROBLOX and Blockland too.

Yeah. I still think ROBLOX is pretty awesome and I play it every day. But alot has changed since 2007 and ROBLOX is just one of it's worst states in my opinion.

Ok then.

Don't expect physics like roblox. Physics here are like a fancy brick death, they aren't usable. NO cars, no falling bricks kill people. You can make catapults, though. This is to reduce lag, and it does. My computer can look at 128,000 bricks with no visible lag. Yes my frame rate drops, but its not to the point where I can see it.

NO cars, no falling bricks kill people.

Vehicles don't kill people? Aww...

They do in mini-games. I think he might mean that you can't build cars in Blockland, but I'm not really sure what he's talking about. I think you can build cars in Roblox, right?

Yes, as well as planes and boats.

And trucks and fish and pie and teapots and Richard Nixon and pieces of paper and robots and tables and houses and chairs and birds and cookies and cakes and lies and people and Sparta and heads and pandas and bowls and annoying fourm posts and pretty much anything else.

Is it easy to build pie in Blockland?
