I find it ironic that the updates roblox push practically instantly are always the ones the community hates.
2 days after this, most faces went offsale and were replaced with these.
I find it really a shame that the old faces are no longer available for sale, but unfortunately roblox will not do anything. Do you remember the horrible audio update? The one that for me was the worst thing ever. A lot of people were angry about this and thief…did absolutely nothing!
As for the animated head update, I hope the Crimson Claw Pack gets an update! Noble_Draconian had made some in this topic but roblox still hasn’t replied…
i mean didnt some internal roblox files get leaked like 1 year ago that literally mentioned plans to sunset r6 schema and tech?
Yes, and the classic faces being offsaled is phase 1/3 of the R6 removal
Phase 2 is where it really starts
Good luck
The difference between this and the audio update was that ROBLOX was being actively sued for copyright infringement so they implemented that system to avoid more issues regarding public copyrighted music.
This is just an update where they’ve blatantly disregarded any feedback for the sake of forcing animated heads.
True, but they weren’t even honest with the devs and player. They made up a stupid lie and left it like that. Many people were angry and he could have found another solution or at least communicated, but he did nothing. And this update will be the same. People can express their anger but unfortunately they won’t do anything.
The audio update was in the works for years. It was not something that came out of the blue, they were working towards finding a long-term fix to avoid public-facing copyrighted audio which is why the original system was put in place during when they partnered with APM.
That was just the end result of years and years of copyright claims being pushed towards ROBLOX.
For once I feel like they need to listen to the community because people will end up finding other games if they’re stuck with meager avatar customization where accessories don’t even line up with the eyes. If anything this will put a reliance on UGC creators saving the facial expression market which is probably not their intention for this update.
I don’t agree on this subject, setting up a copyright filter and completely removing the audio library (because for me that’s what they did) are 2 different things .
Regarding this update, we just have to wait and see what happens.
The audio update didn’t need to completely ruin audios like it did. Nor did this.
In my opinion, I like the animated heads. They bring life to your roblox avatar. Although it can look ‘creepy’ for now, after it is normalized I think players will enjoy it or at the very least, get used to it as we have witnessed this to be the case with the many changes over the years so far.
Having said that, I think it’s a mistake to replace the Classic Static faces with the animated ones. I understand ROBLOX wants more options for players, but instead it is making things restrictive. A lot of players love the Classic roblox look. It wouldn’t be confusing to have both the Classic and Animated versions available.
Read their post entirely, they said they won’t force users to enable camera, and will be optional.
Roblox, I sincerely ask you to stop forcing stuff on us. Your goal is to power imagination and do almost anything with unique avatars. Now that is all gone.
And now Roblox even go nagging about “unlocking more featues” by verifying phone number.
That was short sweet and to the point right there
I would like to bring attention to the wording of “classic” and “blocky”. NOWHERE do they mention 1.0 or R6. Remember that Roblox’s definition of “classic” and “blocky” is this, so R6 1.0s are probably not even safe from Roblox updates.
In disbelief that a group of people can approve such a bad update.
you won’t know till you remember the CORP in roblox…that’ll answer your question
nobody asked for your stupid update, and you know you won’t bother with the negative feedback that’s flooded this forum because it’s all about the money isn’t it?
Don’t nitpick one thing and write entire reply I’ve sent. : )
