First may I say that I think it's very poor on ROBLOX's part how they rely on players to create the "official" summer games. Is it because the Winter games were so poor?

The first game I played was Ultimate Marble Rider, by asimo3089. The game is well built and designed, however the GUIs are "too much". The gameplay itself is incredibly boring. The first time round is quite nice; it's nice scenery and cool to watch, but straight after that it's very boring indeed.

Next I played ROBLOX Paintball 2, by daxter33. The first server I was in was broken which is very poor for them. Even I know how to stop broken games.. Anyway, I joined a new server. The arms looked unrealistic, and the guns were okay. The GUIs was good, but the gameplay was very boring and long (10 min games, no thx). I don't know if there was more than 1 map, but it was the same one over and over and got very repetitive.

Then I played Deathrun 2, by Wsly, which was the same as it had been before except with a new lobby and player points added. I'll get to player points later. I played this game so much when it came out so it's going to be boring for me since there's nothing new.

Next I played ROBLOX Hiking, by TheAmazeman. I had absolutely no idea what to do at first. There was no explanation of what to do - learning nicely from the ROBLOX Devs with the Witching Hour. I eventually found a minigame button, which I pressed and did absolutely nothing. Great. Hiking on a virtual game is boring and if I wanted to, I'd go outside and actually benefit from it.

Followed by a trip to Call of ROBLOXia 5, with very low expectations after the previous games I'd been to. This game obviously had some effort put into it for the Summer games; it was somewhat different. There was a lot of text on the screen and I had to wait ages for something to happen...and nothing happened. So I left and joined a new server. The guns on the game are very nice. They look realistic (not very detailed) and are good. The gameplay is good but gets boring as there's no clear objective. I guess it's the best game I had played of the day.

Now player points. There's no reason for the games to be points-orientated. The good thing about the Winter games was you won prizes for actually winning something. I don't like how only a very small number of people win anything at the end of the whole thing; it's won and lost from Player points which is..just awful.

I know this is a lot to read but if you took your time to read this far, then thanks.
What are you opinions on my review and the Summer games itself?

I can't make an opinion because I'm not playing the games cause it's unfair.

Smiley, I think the reason they are using user-made games is because the games team can only make so many games in a year. They have halloween and easter to worry about, so it makes it easier to have user-based contests.

true, it's also giving others chance and promoting users' games.

"It's also giving others chance and promoting users' games."
No it's giving already established game developers a chance to get richer.

However I see why they wouldn't trust 'others' but still a contest could have been made and submitted or something.

I totally agree with you.

The only way to win a prize on the first several days is to either cheat (exploit), or, be a no-life and play for the whole day non-stop.
I had to play 10 hours yesterday on Paintball 2 and I was still lurking around #40-50 on the Leaderboards.

It may be a little too late for major changes now, but I surely hope ROBLOX does know we don't like the concept and how this is going so far.

Yep, the odds of winning anything are slim to none unless you exploit. Why bother?

I don't expect to get the to the top 20 anyways.
But I think they said the top 10k or 1k get something too.

I think the idea of players making summer games was a good idea because the players are the basis of the event, not the mods.

The mods wouldn't make it, but the dev team.

And yeah, I agree with you a bit.

I'd rather have CoR be a simple death match.

CoR is the best game, but I don't want a mask, I want the top hat asimo's game is giving, but it's too much to do, it's boring, and the playerpoints are always depleted.

I can't remember them too well but if I recall correctly they got very boring quickly and some games were simply awful.
