certainly not anybody who's sane
no, you become a game developer to deal with the petty wants of a website full of needy children who are too busy complaining about you and your staff to realize you are actually trying to help them.

not to mention, every update you make provokes even more complaints, and even if your game is free to play, people still call it pay to play

Truth- I want to make an online game. Sadly, I am an artist and only have concept art for it.

@44,


When you think about it, if ALL updates provoke them...


Then don't update. You will lose money on the update, and by players not wanting BC.

@Pie

Then the game won't evolve, and people will start leaving at a faster rate.

If the game doesn't evolve, why is that a bad thing? I mean really. Who wouldn't want a day without some stupid BC only update, and a month without people crying about it.

then people would begin to complain about a lack of updates, and if they never updates then certain exploits and bugs would never get fixed

44,


If I had a site I would make this my way of updating it.

-Get messaged at least twenty times about the same idea. (Twenty just seemed like a good number. :3)

-If I like the idea, and run it through with a few people who mostly like it, then see next step.

-Set up a poll in the blog and see if a majority would like the update.


I would constantly try to patch exploits and such though.

pie has the right idea

by not adding NEW content all the time

you can fix the broken existing features

All I'm saying is ROBLOX should take a more... Effective approach instead of just winging it with updates.

Yeah

I would add new content, but not that much to make sure it works in the game

I'd also run over major updates in a beta version first so players can test it and approve/disapprove

I'd also update older content to fix it up or make it more up to date, again, if major, then test it

well, maybe it'd help if people worried more about actually saying what they disliked about updates, instead of just insulting the staff for it

Going by your logic, you HAVE to like every single update there is

What is the importance with keeping up with the other games? They can only achieve that by making the game a stereotype, and that's what I don't want.
