our input is that this is a REALLY POOR IDEA and SHOULD BE REVERSED
roblox has a history of literally never listening to developers, time and time again they have posted something controversial, got HUGE backlash, increased the deadline, and then later pushed out the same update with no changes
history always repeats itself
the least we can do is try our hardest to make sure it DOESNT
What the heck? Hello? You already have to pay if you want to use the items anywhere you want across the platform.
Youâre posing this as âcreator rightsâ, but what youâre doing in practice is putting us into a position where we are potentially further pushing microtransactions at literal children so that we either donât have to make worse games with less content, or so we can salvage our existing ones - because you are well, well aware I would think that so many games hinge on having these available. That is all far, far from cool or okay!
yaâll ever think about how catalog avatar creator kept getting highlighted and praised at RDC, and now they want to delete it off the platform?
Please. Add at least three more sentences.
Why roblox why do you hate us please i just wanna knoe
It only took thousands of devs/users saying this update sucked for Roblox to decide and pause it (they did not say they wouldnât do the update btw, they could go through with this in the future.)
Roblox needs to actually start listening to feedback without people having to go to this extent.
Roblox donât do this, this is a bad idea.
I mean, I was looking forward to T-Shirt day which is on November 2924th, but this kind of ruins the celebration for the future.
roblox has made some horrendous updates in the past, but this is by far the worst
i had a heart attack hearing about this and it doesnât help that it was actually real and will actually happen
i had to private 90% of my games and put gamepasses off-sale and i still donât know if thatâs enough for this greedy monkey pen of a âcompanyâ
i and many other developers will stop or be able to develop games indefinitely and will most certainly be switching platforms until this is undone
im done looking deep for any possible bright sides to any of these updates, this one doesnt have any other than for the greedy people higher up getting all that sweet sweet cash!
youre giving us a week to flip our games that we worked so hard for over years, blood, sweat, and tears inside out. imagine how we feel, for once, will you?
no you wont. youll keep rolling out fits of âoh our intellectual propertyâ âimagine how we feelâ whining while you wipe your fake tears with your 100 dollar bills while weâre forced to go âyes sirâ âyes maâamâ and turn our second comings of what have you into second comings of e.a. for the chance of our lives works living on undead as a tarnished, far gone version.
for once, listen to yourselves, listen to how stupid all this sounds, and turn back while you still have your consumer base, or whats left of it.
I am honestly confused about why ROBLOX has to urge to focus on aspects no one asked for, this change just restricts people from enjoying ROBLOX as itâs been, and on top of that with such little time to comply developers large or small are now going to have to put normal projects on hold to ensure they comply with something that could risk their experience, none of this seems logical and is just generally the dumbest idea Iâve seen come out of ROBLOX so far in my time on the platform.
you can unprivate for now since we made them stall this update, but do keep it in the back of your head that they may go through with this anyways
my suggestion? make some noise, if weâre vocal and angry roblox will MAYBE concede.
So, let me get this straight you call yourself a platform. But you force updates down the players and developers throats, you donât respect your community. Not to mention I canât even wear my items that I actually like and the style that I like which is the classic R6 2.0, which youâre trying to get rid of? For what⌠You donât care about the players who made you a big corporation in the first place. Like honestly, whatâs the point of your platform. Iâm about to quit roblox. You want to age your platform the reason Iâm on this platform is because I had a childhood on this game I donât wanna let go. No 18 year old wants to see âplastic Barbie dollsâ. Youâll lose money, lose your players, lose your community. I donât respect you as a company. I hope everyone reads this and genuinely boycotts roblox because this needs to stop. Iâm getting tired of this company thinking they can just mess up their platform, be defiant, not care about the community. Becoming too corporate? Like. Iâm done I canât use my 2D faces on a roblox game that I spent around 300 USD. Iâll see you in court roblox.
Robloxâs attempts to appeal to shareholders and ignoring the community makes investors unhappy at them for alienating and upsetting their community. Kind of funny how that works. Robloxâs attempts to appeal to investors ends up driving them away in the long run. I hope they come to realize that eventually, although thatâs doubtful.
If games need to have a purchase ui for when a player equips something, it will be both annoying and not right since players should have the freedom to try out the item first. This is a great way of driving players off of the game and can give the game a look of P2W aspects.
Offsale items should be able to be used. Itâs gonna be a lot harder to find workarounds since many ugc creators today like to have timed and limited items. By doing this you are only shrinking ways to add to a game.
I really donât understand the thought process here, but I really hope this does not go into effect.
Thank you for your prompt response and for valuing the feedback of the developer community.
they didnt value our feedback when it came to the forced dynamic head/classic face update, did they?
roblox wont notice you for bootlicking, trust
I have enough stuff going on with my game this is not the time for audio update but for the market place.
this update is mainly scary because of how vague it is
what about startercharacters? what about literally anything?
the faq basically says nothing and thats making everyone freak out
to everybody trying to calm us down then you must know what exactly theyre trying to say, huh? so TELL US!
