Save the Date: RDC 2020!

Definitely not saying Members shouldn’t be prioritized, I’m just saying some New Members should be considered too. It shouldn’t be limited to only Members. Apologies for any misunderstanding.

If the tickets aren’t sold out, new members can apply.

Ay, have fun guys.

And EU guys, let’s all cry in the corner.

For real, I’m sad that there’s no RDC EU…
Hopefully, next time?

I really appreciate the early release of the dates, however…

extremely sad that there is no RDC outside of the United States… really been looking forward to it and I would most certainly attend RDC US if it was legally possible…

As I live in a country where US only allows student (J1) visas and no others, I cannot enter the US in order to go to RDC, I must get a B(x) visa as I’d be attending a conference.

— Personal reasons aside…

Having an RDC outside of the US would allow for more developers to attend and participate, network and socialize. There is a pretty fair amount of developers who are willing to attend but cannot because of the location…

If at all possible I’d like to understand your (Roblox’s) point of view on this, and their reasoning for not holding one.

So we’re going from a 4.3 star hotel to a 4.4 star hotel.

Thanks, Kanye! :slight_smile:

Last year was my first year and it was amazing. Meeting so many great friends that I met on the platform in real life is quite an adventure. I can’t wait to go back this year. :grin:

  • definitely
  • maybe
  • no (please explain why)

I don’t think it’d be a good idea - if they have money for another event, it should be somewhere international like Germany to reach more developers :slightly_smiling_face:

It would be very expensive for roblox to host multiple RDC or host one across the country, thousands of miles away from their HQ.

I believe it’s overkill to prioritize two RDCs in same continent when you’re also cutting out an entire continent elsewhere. I would say if they’re gonna have a second RDC place it in another continent so they can reach more developers.

When I say east coast I mean cities like New York, Toronto, Washington D.C, Miami, Orlando, etc.

Edit: Also how is Germany more “international” than the East Coast of North America?

There has been a ton of talk about why a RDC East Coast just doesn’t work.

The whole thing that makes RDC SF great is the location itself. Being so close to the Roblox HQ lends Roblox Staff the ability to come to the convention easily. RDC elsewhere just means the amount of Staff is cut down DRASTICALLY and that’s no fun. If you’re unable to feasibly make it to RDC 2020, don’t fret too hard. Just realize you’ll go to one, one day, likely, and it’ll be a great time.

It is quite disappointing to hear that there is yet again no RDC EU this year. Roblox has been expanding its player base and talking about globalization for years. Naturally, the next step would be to engage with more and more developers from around the world, but they’ve done the exact opposite.
