"DevEx encourages famous game makers to make quality games for the entertainment of the community. Reduce it, and they'll be discouraged."
1. Too bad.
2. I care why?
3. I haven't noticed any difference in game production before and after DevEx.
4. They made a 3d world with the simplest programming language and plastic building bricks, that luckily got famous by a bunch of kids playing it. And they want 2000$ for it? Honestly...
"Unlike you, there's nothing wrong with starting a career in a kids game. What does that show?"
It shows you did approximately 1/10 of the work you would do in a real game making career.
whoopty freaken doo! |

"It shows you did approximately 1/10 of the work you would do in a real game making career."
Are you implying that it would be better to have 0 experience on making games?

"DevEx encourages people to be greedy and selfish like roblox, by squeezing every last bit of money out of their players."
DevEx rewards good developers with money as an incentive to continue developing on Roblox and to increase game quality to gain visitors.
"That money should go to people with true potential for game making and need it most."
It is,
"It also draws in teenagers to roblox"
Or some of us, you know, age. Anyways, what is wrong with having a diverse community anyways?
"Are sometimes obnoxious and think too highly of themselves."
You don't need to be a teen to do so.
"Online date."
Same as previous.
"Exploit"
Anyone can do it as long as there is a leaked exploit, though those who can make their own are very likely to be older as more experience is required to know how to make one.
"Constantly troll on just about everything, everywhere."
Again, anyone can do so.
"Take every ounce of blox out of roblox"
Everything is still made with bricks.
"making ridiculously complex, high class games, which we don't need, because this is roBLOX, not roREALISM. If you want realism, go play a different site or go play what average teenagers play all day, what is it, call of duty?"
So you would prefer games with hardly any effort completely contradicting your point earlier about wanting quality games?
"Lowering it is a start to solving just about every problem, including price floor."
Yeah, where is your proof.
"This used to be a kids site, and that fundamental should have never changed."
Like it ever has changed? Sure some updates may have been good, some may have been bad, but Roblox is still Roblox.
As for that whole "RoRealism" nonsense you keep bringing up, there is not much realism in the first place. As long as we are still using blocks and cartoon-y meshes, it will be near impossible to make a "realistic" game without much lag, especially with the limited amount of BrickColors. |

Game Quality hasn't moved an inch in terms of progression since DevEx was introduced
infact, I think it may have gotten worse |

The only improvement in game quality is maybe from new, good updates like universes.
DevEx hasn't changed anything, other than change this kids site into a teenager site, and make NBC more unfair. |

gee, i remember when roblox used to be a small community game, not a gigantic corporation pumping out thousands of dollars with games like these on the front page, http://www.roblox.com/Noob-Killing-Tournament-NBC-Version-is-Out-place?id=107549840 |

Daniel, what is between your ears? Because it sure isnt a brain.
Price floor is used to maintain the money to throw away on DevEx.
And thanks for the discrimination of NBC at the end of your post, which had nothing to do with this thread at all.
kk
I rest my case.
haters gonna hate.
kthxbai. |

Most of the games on the front page deserve to bge there
galleon simon says murder mysterey
catalog heaven
diasters both of them
apoclypse rising
work at a pizza place
sword fighting tournament
call of robloxia base wars
le bote
Paintball!
catching fire
deathrun 2
pokemon adventures
ro planes 3 flood escape
the underground war paintball testing
everything else is some terrible roleplay or misleading game.
Or a free model obby |

Yikes. I'm not sure why we would ever want to do that. The DevEx has been an awesome feature for people such as TheGamer101, CloneTrooper1019, ScriptON, Nikilis, and many others who make really awesome ROBLOX games. The DevEx really is just an incentive for people like them to continue to make awesome ROBLOX games, with the added benefit of giving them some real money to further their budding careers in game development. Reading your posts, it seems like you don't want high quality games, which is completely confusing for me. The better the games become, the more fun they are to play. I personally get bored quickly of playing a new "EASIEST OBBY ON ROBLOX" every day, and would much rather play a game like apocalypse rising, and it is games like Apocalypse Rising that the DevEx encourages. |

And in terms of the price floor being affected by DevEx... No I don't think so. The price floor is there for two main reasons. To slowly increase the quality of clothes in the catalog, and to make sure clothing creators are able to earn a decent amount of tickets from their creations. If we remove the price floor, the DevEx can keep going, and if we removed the DevEx, the price floor would keep going. They aren't related. |
|
|
Content creators can raise the prices of their clothes without the price floor if they think the market values it at that much. |
|
|
You don't want quality games or ODers.
But if it was full of complex copiers it would be full of ODers
And you want blox back?
Then they get sued for intellectual property breach by mojang |
|
|
Mojang AB doesnt own the concepts behind voxel graphics and rendering. |
|
|
But Gordon, there were tons of games that lots of people enjoyed before DevEx. |
|
|
For sure, there were lots of games before DevEx, and the DevEx should ensure that more games like those are created. |

Troll confirmed, and a mod replied about why the suggestion won't work and that they won't undo the update the suggestion is targeted at. Anyways, this is against the WNTS as suggesting to undo an update isn't allowed. DevEx is staying as it is for right now it seems unless the limit is by chance raised, or something else happens that influences another change. |

LIKE I'VE NOTICED! That NBC riot again uh? Mr. Javeman2000, OBC paid for their membership, Roblox is making around millions per year, and if this happened, price floors would increase plus stop being an idiot around the forums, you said you're never going to spend money on this "worthless" game (like what you said in the last thread). |

I don't see what you mean by DevEx bringing more ODers, Exploiters, Trolls, and obnoxious teenagers to ROBLOX. They would come with or without DevEx, it doesn't change anything.
DevEx doesn't support people to be greedy, it encourages them to create better games to try to make it to the top of the games list and make profit.
Realism in ROBLOX? What does this have to do with DevEx? I think you're just mad about the new ROBLOX in general and wished it stayed in 2008.
DevEx is just fine with me. |
