I hated that.

Both ways uphill in the snow
Barefoot in the heat of summer.

Did you know you there used to be no remotes so you had to get up and turn the knob?

As far as I'm concerned, the controls are just as easy as they can be considering how in depth the building process is.

And Blockland addon installation is way easier than any other game.

OMG.

Oh, look, Ephi has started advertising out the ass again.

I think what he's trying to say is that he's trying to download add-ons, but the tutorial wasn't clear enough. I just went on YouTube.

I believe Blockland needs to be more easy to use. When I first joined, I did not understand one thing about the game. I didn't even know how to build. it's easy, if you can't figure out how from the tutorial, you must be disabled...

After using the tutorial, I understood the basics of Blockland. But, after creating my own server, no one would come! Soon I found out that it was because my server was "dead". After following instructions on how to fix that, it would not work. To this day, i can not create my own server. do you even know what the hell you're doing there?

Installing add-ons... Why so hard? Why not make it possible to add add-ons to Blockland easier? I know there's RTB, but not EVERYONE knows about it. Blockland should add a system to add user generated Add-ons from the forum much more easier. this is the best method and it's so freaking easy...

Also, im sure there should be a way to download required information from servers much faster. I get tired of sitting there watching the bar going by soo slowly. So I press ESC and go to another server hoping that I dont have to download anything. how to go arround this? take out all the addons?!

Maps are also a pain, Having to download huge maps such as Paradise and Raceways are a very big pain and should be fixed to enter games more smoother and faster. then don't go to them... you can't go arround that, or you can't see anything

User appeal on the home page doesn't look very.. friendly. It looks kind of adultish.. Maybe changing the home page graphics would bring in more members, since I can see all the advertisements everywhere. who really cares, and it works


I play Blockland all the time, and i'm not saying its dumb, stupid, or not worth paying for. Its actually a fun game with a great game engine and easy to use scripting. Im just giving my opinions on the game and hoping that staff read this. Thank you. that's what you're making it out to be, complaining about nothing...

Yeah same. I could probably make an add-on gui aswell. But I don't need to do that.
You stole Mtndews Avatar >_>


It's a joke ._.
its still his old avatar you should get permission from the original owner in my mind.

He's pretty cool with it from what I can tell.

Also, says the guy who stole maps, lol.

I believe Blockland needs to be more easy to use. When I first joined, I did not understand one thing about the game. I didn't even know how to build. The tutorial teaches absolutely everything in basic Blockland. There's no way you didn't understand it without being stupid.

After using the tutorial, I understood the basics of Blockland. But, after creating my own server, no one would come! Soon I found out that it was because my server was "dead". After following instructions on how to fix that, it would not work. To this day, i can not create my own server. See the part on my above comment about "There's no way you didn't understand it without being stupid."

Installing add-ons... Why so hard? Why not make it possible to add add-ons to Blockland easier? I know there's RTB, but not EVERYONE knows about it. Blockland should add a system to add user generated Add-ons from the forum much more easier. Hard? Are you kidding me? All you do is copy and paste a file into the Add-Ons folder and enable it. Before v9 came out you had to download the .zip or .rar and then extract it to the Add-Ons folder. Result? Clusterforget of people making really messed up forced-downloads like "Add-Ons/Add-Ons/add ons/MANGOBEAN/weapon/shape/data/base/data/skies/weapon.dts". In short: You're an idiot for not knowing how to cut and paste and click a checkbox.

Also, im sure there should be a way to download required information from servers much faster. I get tired of sitting there watching the bar going by soo slowly. So I press ESC and go to another server hoping that I dont have to download anything. There'll be an update to RTB3 for fixing the Server Information page eventually. Otherwise just go to Options>Network and uncheck Download Weapon shapes/textures/explosion shapes/etc"

Maps are also a pain, Having to download huge maps such as Paradise and Raceways are a very big pain and should be fixed to enter games more smoother and faster. Impossible to do, we're running on the fastest networking this version of TGE has to offer. Get better internet or hope the host has good upload and you have good download.

User appeal on the home page doesn't look very.. friendly. It looks kind of adultish.. Maybe changing the home page graphics would bring in more members, since I can see all the advertisements everywhere What? Adultish? How? I don't see bikini models all over the home page, wtf?.

tl;dr: Your ideas are based on the fact that you and other people can't comprehend the easiest of things :|
No offense, but you're an idiot.

Cant you just go to console and type 'canvas.pushdialog(RTB_ModManager);' to open the mod manager in game.

EDIT: Code fix.
Err.
He means when joining servers, and that you have to wait for the add-ons to download during the loading screen. :/

its still his old avatar you should get permission from the original owner in my mind.
Public property.
He didn't even care anyways.

I agree with alexnewton, but yeah, he's right.
