I heard about rotatoes, HttpService, and all sorts of things we've been begging for a while. Anybody care to make a short summary?

"Data store and universes coming soon as well." "Soon" is an abstract concept. To the Admins, "Soon" basically means "within the next 10 years"

"within the next ten years" summarizes to David finally making bulldozers in roblox.

Who remembers those new parts that were on the test server at around the same time as GUIs?

Those were awesome... I mean, they worked (As far as I could tell) and would have been great for game development! A 20 sided PrismPart would have made a much better wheel than the current Cylinder Shape...

How about those ropes? I've been waiting on them for about 2 and half years and they show these balloons containing these awesome ropes on a truck about 5-6 months ago, then we never hear or see them again.

As far as the extra parts go, all of them can be created with wedges. -God Bless-

I remember when the new physics came out and when you exploded stuff, sometimes the parts in the explosion just disappeared. DataStores are just cool. Here is the Github gist simonsays (Gemlocker) posted about them: https://gist.github.com/SimonRoblox/7242348

They removed the loading of lua bytecode through loadstring. They added dynamic lighting. Don't get me started about outlines, these little highlights around bricks edges.
