I'm going to ask the fans what they think I should do. Below are the options discussed in detail. Please read them over before you vote. When you're ready to vote, just reply with the letter of the choice you want.


-VOTE A:

So, how can I solve the problem with people crashing as soon as they join the game?

Shrink the map.

If I knock out some of the smaller cities and condense some of the more important cities and towns into a smaller area, I could reduce the brick count by a couple thousand.

The major cities would still be in the same areas, there would still be two airfields, and there would still be a forest. The only things that are getting tossed are some of the less important towns. Also, once the "500K brick" update comes, the map will be returned to it's normal size. (With many additions) This is Vote A.



-VOTE B:

So you like the map the way it is? Maybe there are some sacrifices that can be made without chopping down the size of the map?

We could just leave the map at the size it is now, and slowly remove unimportant pieces until it starts working for players. At the same time, we will continue attempting to solve the problem by other means. Otherwise, we will continue waiting for the "500K brick" update, and once it's released the map will be returned to it's original state. This is Vote B.





Other options include reverting the map to the previous version, but this is not something we're willing to do.

We are also not putting the old map on an alternate character.


So, cast your vote. "Vote A"? Or "Vote B"?

Honestly mate, I'm a bit confused as to what this "500k brick update" you constantly refer to entails. I've tried searching for it but haven't managed to find any news on it.

Vote A.

The 500K brick update is a supposed Roblox update that will reduce the amount of memory required to render bricks in the game.

It's called the "500K brick" update, because places will be able to have 500,000 bricks or more, before problems start occuring.

For a game like Apocalypse Rising, the map could be HUGE and there would be no issues. (Such as people crashing when they join)

I vote "A" mainly because I think you updated too much too soon. I don't remember any of the other towns like "Kin" or "Vernal". The map now over 20000 bricks which can be a problem for some computers even with the fog.

The lag ruins the PvP gameplay I wish roblox would put this update in beat testing already.

I love the map as it is with all the smaller towns. If there was a C option which means no change I'd pick that but whatever.

(Note: I can run this game on graphix 10 <3)

I'm finally starting to learn the new map, but I vote B. I want the old map back mostly because it contains less lag and such. Plus, the new map has way more lag and I've seen more deaths, and I'm going to say this now: I've seen less people play this game with the new map. I say revert to the old one until you've got the new map under control, since you sometimes call mass testing.

Even if the 500k brick update does happen ( It probably will ) it won't stop most people's game crashing on entry. The problem is that while roblox's servers could handle it, most people's computers can't.
