Some games are so massive they need to use streaming to load the game for Players, so they add the loading screen so Players don't see the 'messy' things of the game because not all the bricks are loaded yet and you can see them...

Also they make it to make users "think" they are Really good developers...

That's all I can say.

loading guis at the start are pointless
but sometimes during the game they can actually be used (such as when loading the next map)

but often there are better solutions than a loading gui

Your posts are now low quality, smiley.
We do that so that we can use the loading service to pre-load all our content so it doesn't seem messy and un-loaded.

Think, would you?

@devChris,
I know that but it's not needed. It takes no more than 10 seconds to load if you do it right.
"We"
lol @ u

"Wow you people with dev in front of your names act so superior and big just because you guys know 'Lua'. He was just asking."
I'm better at Lua than him, and he's not a Dev; it's fine. :)

@smiley
You're really arrogant.
You aren't that good at Lua, what you posted in your original post proved that you have no knowledge of ROBLOX's quick loading service.
You don't know how to use it either.

You are no way better than me or anyone in RBXDev, and to the other ignorant guy: Just because I put 'dev' in front of my name doesn't make me a smug kid trying to be an excellent game maker.

Don't say crap like that, you arse.

"You're really arrogant."
Says the one calling himself a dev.

"You aren't that good at Lua, "
I beg to differ.

"what you posted in your original post proved that you have no knowledge of ROBLOX's quick loading service."
Nah I'm able to speed it up.

"You don't know how to use it either."
I don't get where you got that from.

"You are no way better than me or anyone in RBXDev,"
When did I say that?

Stop embarrassing yourself, child.
