Tired of seeing obstacle courses, plane crashes, cart ride into X and build to survive places everywhere, every day, every hour, every minute, every second you log on ROBLOX and wanna play? Same here. ROBLOX, if you're reading this, please add a 'Recommended games' tab under the games page and a matchmaking system.
RECOMMENDED GAMES: This would be the default tab for players after they have played at least 25 different games and favorited/disregarded (read below) at least 5 games. When reviewing games, tags are added to the game to determine more specifically what it is (this would obviously add an 'unfinished game' option, where you could choose whether or not you'd want it to be tagged, this would save time for the moderators). For instance, someone makes a minecart ride into ___ game. A moderator reviews it. He/she can see what it's about and tags it 'minecarts' and 'cart ride into...', and when an user favorites a game with tags like these, they'll see it under their recommended games tab. "More goodies for me," he/she thinks, and ventures into the game. Remember when I mentioned DISREGARDED games? This would be a negative modifier for that kind of game. "Man, I HATE cart ride into ___ games! I don't wanna see them!" another user says. He/she disregards the game, which is, unlike favorites, NOT showed. He/she now sees less games like that. Disregards and favorites conflict eachother. "Man, I can't believe I found this so fun," someone says. He disregards a favorited game. It's no longer favorited. Another user says "I can't believe I hated this game so much. It's lovely!" He/she favorites their previously disregarded game. It's no longer their favorite. Positive modifiers: -Game has at least one server which contains at least 75% of the server's capacity (or 15 if it's a mega place) -Game is similar to a game you favorited -You favorited the game -You visit the game oftenly -Game has been featured -Servers' population mostly have as much freedom of chat as you (game is populated by free chatters when you're a free chatter, functions similarly for safe chatters) -Game is a tutorial game (only applies for first month of gameplay) Negative modifiers: -Game is underpopulated -Game is empty -All/most servers are so populated that you are forced to join an underpopulated/not-same-freedom-of-chatting-as-you server -Game is disregarded -Game is similar to a game you disregarded -Most of population do not have the same amount of freedom of chat as you
MATCHMAKING Tired of being alone on servers? No need to fear. Matchmaking's here to help (should it be implemented). Matchmaking would be where underpopulated games were able to be advertised. For instance, you're waiting for someone to join you in this über epic sword fighting game. You're all alone. Nobody is there to amuse you by letting you turn them into dinner with a sword. Someone's browsing matchmaking and finds your server. Now you can have fun together! Hooray! Oh, here comes another guy! And another one, right until the server's as populated as supposed. Time for fun with transforming eachother into raw steak. Matchmaking's modifiers are similar to recommended games. Positive modifiers: -The server contains less than 6 players (4 if 6 is maximum, 8 if mega server) -Game's favorited -Game's similar to favorited game -Players' freedom of chatting is like yours -At least one player is your friend -At least one player is your best friend -Game is rarely played at the time Negative modifiers: -The server contains at least 6 people (half of capacity if the capacity is over 12) -Game is disregarded -Game is similar to disregarded game
Recommended games would help avoid the hordes of obstacle courses, minecart ride into ___ games and build to survive games. Matchmaking would avoid loneliness in games you like, but seem to have been deserted. Any suggestions to improve? Please write them. If you support, please help the ROBLOX staff see this. |

Support. Sounds like it could help ROBLOX.
Although possibly change the name from Matchmaking to something else? Because matchmaking is a dating term.

TL;DR: Recommended games: Gets your favorites, gets similar games, those appear. Disregarding: Opposite of favorites. Disregarded games not listed |

"Although possibly change the name from Matchmaking to something else? Because matchmaking is a dating term." -1204 Several other games use that word for a similar or identical function; finding players to play with. |

Bump. Also, new modifiers for servers: -Servers in near vicinity are good. -Servers with high latency are bad. |
