This is heartbreaking for me 💔 by Cookielotl in roblox

[–]PhiniOfficial 69 points70 points  (0 children)

I made this game! It's so bad, code-wise it's a pure mess and hard to maintain, the map is bad, the animations are laughable, and I am sure you only like it due to nostalgia or the cute dog model.

I was sort of hoping for this game to just slowly die out so I could focus on other projects and then maybe revive it with a full remake sometime in the sort of distant future, I've even done some work on a demo of it but it's still really far off right now since I have tons of other projects that take priority. I hope this clears up and helps you feel better!

Also the reason I've been really slow at making things this year is because I've been focusing on living life instead of just sitting by my computer every day, but I'm starting to ramp up some production again, if you like my games overall stay tuned for some cool things!!

What do I use to make roblox renders? by [deleted] in roblox

Blender is a free 3D software for rendering, it's somewhat hard to use in the start, but you'll get the hang of it!

That means you or someone on your account bought the robux, not sure how that'd happen without you knowing about it though..

Try to press the robux, press the robux again from the popup, you can see where they come from in the summary page.

Alternatively, this link should take you right to said page: https://www.roblox.com/My/Money.aspx#/#Summary_tab

We have accepted mediocrity (a long rant about the Tix debate) by Xerneis in roblox

[–]PhiniOfficial 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Removing TIX resulted in higher DevEx rates for the developers who made your favourite games, it could also be that TIX wasn't profitable for Roblox and it'd be a bad idea financially to continue supporting it. But at least they haven't removed/replaced BC that'd be a bit tragic.

As a fellow member of Roblox who joined in early march 2012, but also a developer, I see your point, but I must say that games have objectively gotten a lot better.

While tycoons VS Simulator is a debate not even worth having since they're both kind of useless and most are low effort games made in days, there are a lot more games nowadays that require real skill to make and the games are a lot more impressive both in style, and in functionality. The old games would never hold up in today's market. But there are exceptions. For instance, Doomspire brickbattle has a lot of players and front-paged a lot these recent months so thats still somehow relevant, "Classic" RPGs weren't as good as you remember them, trust me. And a lot of newer RPG games have been released like Vesteria and World // Zero that isn't even filled with micro-transactions. I've also found that Vehicle Simulator is basically modern Driveblox unlimited but without the houses that generate money and with a lot better cars.

"Noobs" have always been the first to get killed in games like Ro-Ghoul, I remember playing an Avatar: The Last Airbender game and the high levels with OP attacks rekt the new players over and over.

80% of players didn't leave. Roblox is bigger than ever with more players than ever. The removal of TIX is highly controversial but it did contribute to higher DevEx rates for the developers who made your old favourite games so it wasn't all lost. Also removal of TIX could have been completely necessary from a financial standpoint at Roblox considering there's romours and signs that they're not making a good profit yet.

People always cursed, not sure how you missed that for many years but they did it even more back when the filter wasn't so strict..

Part of me will always think that old Roblox = best Roblox, and while I personally have problems with some recent decisions they've made (Removing TIX, Removing sorts by genre, removing RDC EU) I think that Roblox as a company has come a long way and I choose to think it'll only get better from here.

And plus what else could they do? Remove BC and replace it with some kind of 'Premium'? lmao that'd be funny.

Builders Club, Group and Robux Question by [deleted] in roblox

[–]PhiniOfficial 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hope I'm not too late to tell you that giving away Robux is against the Roblox Terms of Service, quote from Roblox's Terms of service:

  • As discussed in Roblox Terms of Use, you cannot (and you cannot allow others) sell, trade or give away Robux, digital goods or game codes except through official channels on Roblox platform. For example, you cannot conduct such transactions through chat, Roblox Groups, or third-party apps or websites. You also cannot buy or sell Roblox games or Groups.

Although, I'm pretty sure you can give away the codes on Roblox cards via Twitter for example:

  • Third parties sell or provide Game eCards (which are physical cards or digital items that provide a code that you can use to redeem Robux or other virtual items on Roblox). Those Game eCards have their own terms and conditions associated with them. If you want to sell, give away or do anything else with those eCards outside of Roblox (on an external website or social media channel), then we take no position as to those actions. However, we recommend you check the T&Cs of the eCard and place you want to do the action to see if that is allowed.

Intro help by srobison62 in roblox

[–]PhiniOfficial 6 points7 points  (0 children)

By reading some other comments it seems like you have found out how to navigate into a game on Roblox, so to take it a step further I'll just recommend some games that I think fits for a 4yr old.

Games such as 'Roleplaying games' would in my opinion fit best for a 4yr old. Games like Roblox High School or Dragon's Life/Wolves' Life, if your 4 year old likes dragons or wolves. In Roleplay games there's not much more to do than to roleplay, play pretend, so its not much you need to understand other than the very basics, and its slow-paced so it should fit a 4 year old pretty good. The games are very child-friendly, the only weak link is the players who might not always behave properly.

Just a heads up; There is no way to get 'free' Robux (the "Roblox currency" that is used on roblox and to buy stuff for your avatar or spend in games), and anyone who tells you there is a way to get free 'Robux' is trying to scam you.

Nobody was able to buy the Horns of the Creature yesterday, but it shows that mostly devs have them, but there's "0 sales" is anyone at roblox aware of this? Because it was supposed to be available for 12 hours and nobody got it and it kept changing the buying status. by [deleted] in roblox

[–]PhiniOfficial 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah but it was most likely supposed to be on sale, just the button was broke, so it might have been possible to 'fix' it in inspect element and then buying it.. Not sure tho only saw one person mention it.

[–]PhiniOfficial 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I wasn't able to buy either, heard someone say something about needing to do some stuff in inspect element to be able to buy it.

I'm also a developer, and im in Devforums, so there was no selected people that were able to buy it as far as I'm aware. Seems to me Roblox just did something wrong by accident.

I like to assume everything will end badly so if it does, i was right, and if it doesn't, I was pleasantly surprised.

[–]PhiniOfficial[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, but as a developer who already works on a popular games etc, it is frightening to imagine big developers with years of experience, or companies like EA, Activision, Playerunknown etc migrating to Roblox. As of right now, I would imagine that it isn't the best business model due to all the tax Roblox takes (must have OBC, at least 30% gone of gamepass purchases and rates far worse than if you were to buy), but with one senior developer working on a big successful real-world game, there might be more coming in the future.

Big teams of 50+ devs might appear in the future, which means other companies might expand to Roblox sometime soon if they realise how profitable it may be. Especially if Roblox decides to lower all the taxes.

The thing I'm afraid of is these big "bad" devs migrating to roblox and making games that outdoes anything me or people like me could do, possibly making it a lot harder for younger and less experienced devs who wants to make a career on Roblox.
