One thing I enjoy doing on Roblox is playing games with my friends. There is a common issue that does arise though.
Even when my group of friends are in a party with me, joining a popular game tends to result in many of us waiting for a space to open on the server to play.
A solution to this could be to allow players to search for servers on a game with a select amount of space in them.
When searching for servers, the current system shows full servers at the top and emptier servers at the bottom, which can take a long time to search through when joining a popular game. If players are searching through servers they're likely looking for one with space on it or empty ones in general, otherwise they would just click "Play." With the ability to search for servers with a specified amount of space, users can spend more time enjoying the site with their friends and less time searching for a roomy server.
I understand private servers are an option but realistically if a group of friends are checking out a new game, they are not going to willingly pay up for a private server. Users would save that for a game they know they enjoy which they know they will play on frequently.
If not add the ability to search for a specified space on a server, another option could be to show empty servers at the top and full servers at the bottom, because realistically people searching for servers most likely want an empty or roomy server and would just press play to be put on a full server. |
