Ever since Apocalypse Rising was created I've been getting suggestions on how to improve the game.
I mean sure, some are decent and would definitely make the game a lot cooler, but some are just plain ridiculous! Now I'm not talking about suggestions that don't make sense, (Those are usually small and stupid) I'm talking about suggestions that just aren't possible.
When people give me suggestions, if I say no it's usually because of the limitations of Roblox. Naturally, you can only make a game so big and complicated before your framerate heads south.
But when I deem a question ridiculous, it's because it's so massive and absurd that Roblox would crash as soon as the server started! Things like, "Make the map four times as big," along with "Add 20 cars and planes and helicopters," or "Make it so there's survivor AI's that shoot you in each city," yeah...
It has become entertaining to see all these players not realize that what they're playing on barely fits the definition of a "Game Engine".
I thought it would be pretty funny to make a game on another account... "Apocalypse Rising 2", and list all of those ridiculous suggestions in the description. I would claim that they were all added. And as soon as anyone joins the game crashes itself via script. :)
I guess the summary is that I'm surprised people are expecting Roblox to perform so well. Hopefully some day it will actually perform, rather than flop around in an attempt to work without effort.

I feel sorry for you that people want you to do impossible things. I love the game, and it's one of the BEST zombie survival games on ROBLOX. Some people want you to add Elite Zombies, helicopters, cars, and MORE zombies. Those things (except the MORE zombeis and Elite Zombies) would be cool, but yeah, I get what you mean about too many suggesstions. There's many easy ways to make the game better and all that, but the map's so huge that it would crash the game just to add bubble chat probably. Although bubble chat would be really good, or some Billboard GUI tooltip thing that is like Bubble Chat. This is a very challenging and addicting game as it is though.
Well done! |

It's not that you should feel sorry for them, it's that they should just think about what they're asking for.
By all means, I am not saying people shouldn't suggest things. But before you do, think about whether Roblox could handle it or not. There IS a limit. |

| Everyone is stupid enough to suggest: Make a MASSIVE nuke that blows up when you find it! Or they will suggest: Make cars and planes and helicopters and boats! I suggested a new perk! :P Gunlinger. Makes you do 12% more damage. The icon is purple with 2 pistols crossed. :D |

| Yea, a New perk whould Make the game Better. What if you were Able to Choose a Primary Perk (Such as Cardio and Survival and All the others That are now.) and then a Secondary perk, Like Increased HP, The Increased Damage, (That The man Above Suggested) or Something Like that. Im not sure What the Limit for Games Are at, But this ones Pretty good So far Although it Lags Quite a Bit... Keep up the Good Work! |

I think good idea is to make more things in all houses (beds, tables). People will have to sleep or they will move slower/really long reload of all guns. Everything have weight and if you have backpack full of things you move slower. |

If Roblox receives a massive performance boost this game would kick every other game in the face. Keth and I have SO MUCH STUFF that we want to add, but we can't because your framerate would be <1.

| I want to see you build a game that he did. You can't? Well don't troll and get out. Gusmanak you are doing a great job recreating Day Z. I am surprised you have added what you have and Roblox still runs well. At least for me... Dunno about others. Anyway keep up the good work. |

| I love your game. It's legitimately the best game on Roblox right now. I understand that most suggestions you get are just not going to work, especially vehicles, but couldn't you just add one simple vehicle? Maybe a bike or something? |
