I have greatly, I am getting no income.

It is easy to make people join, but harder to get them to buy game passes.

Its almost pointless to make games anymore.

"It doesen't really change anything."

that's completely false.

front page games got tons of tickets and easily transferable to robux, now they don't get that anymore. It's a huge loss for them.

No it isn't, you don't know what you're talking about.

Tickets account for < 5% of profits. Developer products are the vast majority of profits, followed in 2nd far off by game passes.

I've been affected, but in a positive way. I am making way more money than I have been before with all the price drops.

Only complaint that I have is that NBC is now its own low class pretty much. No income at all(Assuming the person is your typical robloxian. Unless you're successful, you can generate a tiny amount.

So place traffic revenue was the main source of money, I see.

^No. One million place visits was roughly equal to 175 dollars for DevEx.

If you look at Mad Games as an example, place vists would have been equal to about $4400. Now look at the game passes that place sells. The "Radio!" alone earned north of $30k.

@Gtthejobdone

Where did you get this info about 5% of profits, I am very interested.
Because thats a load of crap you made up to try and back yourself up.

15 tix = 1 robux

a single gamepass can be about 200 robux and easily sold

that = 3000 tix (3k place visits for just one gamepass purchase)


tix is useless but it kind of helped nbc

Dudefun1234, I have been on the front page and known quite a few other people who have been on many times as well. Tickets make nearly nothing in the long run.

I guess another thing that sucks is that not as much new money will be circulating.

^ Tru.

I still don't understand how removing tix, "helps the roblox economy".

Here is why,

It makes Robux almost immpossible to get unless you develop or buy it.

Decreases circulation, because no one wants to spend the very limited amount they have and not many people have any to begin with.

Makes things like clothing over priced. Clothing created by players usually costs tix with the optional amount of robux.
Now that there is less circulation and less people with robux, the clothing is worth more than it should be and is a real way to suck up players cash.

Roblox tried to make fre stuff to counter the loss of tix, but that doesn't help to much. I mean how many people other than new players use any of the free stuff? Don't say alot, because none of you guys are wearing anything free.

In my opinion the only people benfiting from this is Roblox. Now that it is almost impossible to get Robux without makinh a game that becomes Ultra-Popular, all the little 7 year olds will buy Robux for like 5.00! This may not seem like a lot, but with the amount you get for 5 bucks, you can barely buy anything expensive. Now imagine how many people are buying it for 5 bucks or more! I mean there are over a million players on Roblox!

Is this greed or what?

People don't truly understand the effect of ticket loss.

90% tax prevents nbc's from profiting

nbc no longer have a way to buy gamepasses(ticket to robux transactions allowed nbc's to purchase robux items) talking more away from the income

no tickets from visits thou small it helps.

a true comparison would to see revenue after and before ticket removal

anyone who says they benefit from the update are either bc or liars.

place visits where a small part of income but tickets had a larger effect.

Hes right, for BC members its nit a big deal, but for nbc players who don't get that many visitors are suffering. Yiu hav to make a REALLY HIGH QUALITY fame to even make a small profit.

Use to use funds gained from place visits to buy audio for my new game (got about 2000 tix per day). Now its much more difficult.
