Is Roblox really stupid enough to remove them? You add in dev ex just to get rid of most of the ability to use it? Also what about clans? Without tix there will be no way to purchase uniforms. Essentially Roblox is saying "Roblox is free to play, but if you want anything you gotta give us the money." Roblox doesn't understand the idea of a freemium game, which it has been from the start. They better change their mind or else the community gonna be pissed

Robux is the back bone of roblox so removing one currency does not change the fact that theirs another

I posted this in another threat, but I'm going to C&P it here just because it is relevant.

It needs a little context, so I'm also going to include a few other of my posts from the same thread

post #1:

my reaction to the user created gear was that, assuming users may create all parts of the gear instead of just meshes and what not, they could (and very likely will) be extremely overpowered

of course gear wars are horrible already because of ridiculously overpowered gear, but enforcing that is not a good solution to that

likely there is going to be a system to prevent this/prevent copying expensive items, but none of that is released as of now, so these are my opinions regarding it

post #2:

In regards to the original topic before I forget, I'm really just concerned with how free users will be able to earn money and rewards after this removal without starting some large business/game, since obviously that takes plenty of time and effort, and even then nbc rewards are cut (gamepasses). While of course free daily robux isn't much, it still gives some small, effortless amounts of money to be able to get snipes and start an investing career, or in the case of an NBC user, be able to get some items to customize their character. With the removal of the TC and currency swapping for profit (a method I used quite a bit during my down time) it would be even harder for them.

While the blog did mention that there will be gifts, incentives, etc. for NBC users as a way for them to continue to be able to customize their characters, I'm still worried a fair bit. Similarly to as I described in my post about user created assets, the details have not been released, so we can but hope that the system is sold, given that we cannot give it any constructive criticism (I know, I know >roblox >constructive criticism). Obviously something along the lines of 1 robuck(robux?) per day would be a quick and easy solution to this, and give NBC users something that has been demanded for quite some time (since 10 tix ~=.4 robux right now I believe). The blog didn't seem as though this is the solution they are trying for, however, so I'm hoping whatever system they come up with is good enough to yield similar results to my latterly mentioned suggestion.

Just as a quick note, they mentioned a reason for removing tickets being that tickets are confusing. I think this is extremely odd and was added in simply to have an extra reason for their decision to remove tickets. While I am seeing more and more the benefits of doing so as time presses on, I truly feel that the admins themselves didn't quite know why they were removing tickets, at least based on the blog article and their reasons they gave. Tickets really weren't confusing - you got one when someone visited your place, you got 10 daily, and if you sold an item in tickets, well you got tickets then too! You used them to buy items that were selling for tickets. Wow! I truly don't understand their reasoning there. As for alts, I have a fair 100+ alts, but I've never used them for donating tickets, because it is all just too inefficient. While I'm taking the time to do that, I could be making a limited sniping bot, I could be trading, using the TC, advertising, making an advertising/spam bot, etc. It is far too efficient to be a reasonable source of income. I'm not sure if this is something the admins knew, if I'm missing something, or if, again, they really didn't know what they were doing here.

Finally, much like with my post about the gear, a decent amount of my resentment for this change rests in the lack of details released. All we have is the change, not the ideas of this change, not the basis, or philosophies of this change at all. We don't have much to go off of how this will work at all. If we had more details about this, then I could definitely give far more complete criticism, but much as I have been foreshadowing for this entire post - we simply don't have that. There is only so much we can do or say about this update without this information.

post #3 (not related so much to the tickets, but the post I made about gear earlier):

ayy lmao i just proved not all of my posts are crapposts

maybe

But as for the gear are used for looks, that is definitely true for the most part, and some of the only times gear are used seems to be the overpowered gear. A large reason I don't do gear fights though is in part to the large amount of overpowered gear, which, while I can stand ground easily using what I have, the battle is just far too uphill for it to be too fun. I did used to do gear wars and what not in 2010 - 2012, and even though the OP gear started out in mid 2011, they are nothing compared to what we have today. While most 2016 and 2015 gear were really good in this regard, there are a fair amount from 2013, late 2012, and 2014 that are just far too strong, most notably; Heatseeker rocket, Hyper/Trilaser, Darksteel Katana, SoS, (It's literally balefire! What the actual hell!) shark launcher, zeus+sorcus combo, etc.

It's really just a few gear that ruin it all, given how common they are. It's much like giving every user balefire and a darkheart in gear wars, it's chaos.

Again, just my opinions here

You didn't talk about the user hats, though. :/

I indirectly touched a little bit about them

I focused my attention on gear, but the same argument I had applies to hats as well.

every item being sold for tix rn will be changed to robux by a 17:1 ratio

also the price floors for all shirts and pants are dropping to 5r, have you even read the blog?

Nozzee, the price floor may be lowered, but that only benefits BC+ even more. NBCs will soon have NO way to get the sort of things they want, like game passes, gear, clothes, etc. It was hard enough as it is to get all that, but now it will be impossible. It will also make any new players seem like TOTAL NOOBS to everyone else, which they hear enough with the current system. Please consider everyone not just BCs

>NBCs will soon have NO way to get the sort of things they want[...]

Actually, as quoted from the blog post:

"Q: Will anything replace the login bonus?

We want to continue to reward many of the other activities you do on ROBLOX. We are introducing three temporary achievements on ROBLOX. Check the blog tomorrow for details. We want to continue to celebrate your accomplishments – and you guys do so much more than just log in!"

It may not be a daily reward, but they are adding something in as a way to get money. While, of course, we aren't sure what it is, you could likely still get money from it, as it does imply it will reward you.

I did consider that, and yes i'm on the same page as you. I was just telling him that what he said had already been answered, but yeah there's almost no way for nbcers to get robux making them feel like complete noobs even if they aren't. Even when I lose my bc I get robux from a game I made that got popular.
