(Before you read this, please read the blog post: http://blog.roblox.com/2016/03/saying-goodbye-to-tickets/) (No TL;DR, because it is actually worth reading it.) Roblox, this is got to be the worst decision you have ever made. (I know I said that for the No Winter Games 2016 thread) Why remove a currency? Removing it does not solve the problem. Out of all the things you have done, removing DevEx, Lowering Price Floors, Work on Eggventure, you do this abomination of a move instead. I am outraged by this decision, and have created a quote against it.
"To do without ask is mindless, but to ask without do is mindful." This means, doing something without asking what your fanbase wants, is literally like sticking up the middle finger at a a fan of your game. But, asking what your fanbase wants, but not doing it right away, is encouraging, and the right way.
To make things even worse, you cover up your greedyness by thinking everything is all right, when it is not. You put lies into your words. Most of the revenue of developers are from place visits, actually, so removing them would be unbeneficial to the devs, since they trade those tickets to Robux. It would also induce pay to win, a game which requires paying real-life money to advance, or in general gain a huge advantage over others. This would reduce gameplay of a game, and the amount of active users on Roblox. Smaller devs would suffer due to not getting the slice of the revenue pie of normal Roblox games. Making them poor, and unable to make Robux. All devs would be less rich, unless they insert some tedious thing that make you play the early parts, then force you to pay for the rest of the game. This would make the economy crash even further and would make click baits even higher. Ads will be decreased as not as much developers can afford Robux to run their ads.
Not even the clothing companies are safe. Usually, most of the clothings are bought by NBC's. If Tix is removed, clothing companies won't be able to make as much as they used to. Free clothing will not solve the problem, as they will be low quality, or look the same. NBCer's will look the same. It will take much effort to win a clothing contest. It may even make copying items rampant, like it did with Price Floors 3 years back. Now, that you need to spend real-life money to get clothing that is actually high-quality, purchase will decrease, making the economy crash even further.
Clans and War Groups will also be affected, as not many people can afford uniforms anymore. This will cause a significant decrease in active soldiers in the Clan or War Group. Which means not many people will get out of any rank at all. Since Tix would be removed, advertising your clan or war group would be even harder. Thus, making groups almost useless.
The most affected will be the NBC community, having no way of getting currency, they will face a MASSIVE disadvantage to the Premium members, they will be bullied with no way out, they will hold a disadvantage against the Premium members in games, they will be treated as laughing stock, causing most of them to quit Roblox entirely. Thus, decreasing the number of active users, and making the economy crash even further.
Tixasplooia is focused towards the Top 30% of Robloxians. While normal Robloxians will have to wait 4 days for affordable items. This will cause inflation, and separate the Rich-Poor gap further.
I do not see any benefits what so ever for abolishing Tix. The free items will not help, Premium members will make fun of those without BC, TBC, or OBC. The rewards system shall not work. About the botting thing, there are more pro's than cons for having NBC have 1-5 Robux per day, even if they play for a certain amount of time to get it. Besides, the free items will probably be low quality.
Remember the sponsored devents? There will be more of that since Tix is removed. ROBLOX will again look for sponsors to target their audience (8-12). For older audiences, there will be more things to outrage about. After that, Roblox will probably rely more on devs for events. Thus, making a lot more outrage, criticism, and controversy for the community.
So Roblox, if you are reading this thread, keep the tix currency, it will benefit NBCers even more, what could you have done other than removing Tix? It's simple., Removing DevEx, Lowering Price Floors, Ticket items that are beneficial to NBCers, and more.
This beats Price Floors by a long shot, and is by far the worst update on Roblox. |
