>What is ROBLOX?
Roblox is an online game platform and game creation system developed by Roblox Corporation that allows users to program and play games created by themselves or other users if they first dox all their personal information to them.

Tutorial hell is when someone spends excessive time following tutorials and not working on their creations. Focus on making something of your own instead of relying endlessly on tutorials.

Soon you will be required to dox yourself to use in-game voice and text chat.

reminder

>>2037202
It won't just be chat. I guarantee you that this will apply to games.

>>2037202
I know grifterniggers accelerated the push to this bullshit, but let's not kid ourselves by saying it's their fault when faggot ERPers really started the fire.

I predicted this

>>2037202
>already verified my ID years ago
I honestly don't care. I'm in favor of anything that decreases the amount of people (especially kids) on ROBLOX at this point.

>>2037328
>already verified my ID years ago
good goy

In the business, we call these people "online daters"

Which of the halloween games are the least tedious to do.
I already got that hat I want but I kind want to knock everything else out on the weekend just for lols

To the faggot who called me a schizo in the last thread for noticing rthro started popping up around the time fortnite and its similarly visually styled games came about, youre a huge nigger

>>2037343
PEPETA is mostly easy, third level is a bit of a maze though so don't play if you have a bad sense of direction like me.
RACKET RIVALS isnt a chore to play so that one's not too bad, but every time you join a server you have to talk to the event lady in order to start the event, otherwise the yellow rings will not spawn
BANANA EATS is really easy, just takes some time
WEIRD GUN GAME is boring as fuck but it can be completed very quickly. Join a sever at a high round if you want to do the rune quickly. If you want the key join a lobby at a low round, and quit once you reach round 10-ish and rejoin a game in a lower round again.
NFL Universe Football is extremely easy, just skip the tutorial and get into a game, you don't need it. Pretty quick too.
HAPPY is also pretty easy.
Armless detective is easy with a tutorial. On the trick or treating part i recommend using a controller instead of K&M. You can just mash the buttons you need to press.
KEYS is easy. Recommend using a private server (free) to get the rune quickly.
DRIVING EMPIRE is extremely easy.

>>2037467
ignore the retards and get over it, the rthro thing you're talking about is obviously true. people always thought of minecraft as roblox's biggest competitor, but everyone internally knew when fortnite came to prominence (and then refused to die) that it (fortnite) was forcing roblox to reshape what it was, or else dwindle.

>>2037473
>minecraft as roblox's biggest competitor
What was that?

>>2037478
bruh i was having arguments over whether roblox was better than minecraft. no one cared about blockland at any point in history

>>2037343
Avoid dead rails at all cost, also restaurant tycoon, claw one takes a bit of your time but its really easy, all other games anon said are fine.

what a wonderful thing to wake up to

>>2037202
>Did I do thaaaaat?

>>2037202
Screenshot this, make me eat my words in the future, whatever, but mark my words, I'm 100% certain this will not pass through. There will be severe backlash, later if not now, and they'll be forced to withdraw the change. Popular youtubers like KreekCraft will definitely be against this, they will virtue signal it, it'll be trending on X because it's the game kids play the most and nothing of note will change. The amount of people currently ID verified for voice chat is extremely small in comparison to the younger playerbase playing brainrot games and thus earning developers money. Nothing will happen and you will all forget about it the future.

Therefore, Roblox will not force you to verify your ID in order to chat by 2026.

if your set fps is bigger than ur monitor's refresh rate, for example ur pc can only register maximum 120 fps and u put it at 240 fps, dragging or resizing the roblox window makes it freeze and/or crash. this bug was reported in the devforums already and nothing has been done. when the fuck will they fix this? annoying asf

>>2037613
>this bug was reported in the devforums already
>when the fuck will they fix this?
how the fuck would we know?

>>2037613
Average wait time is 3-4 years

>>2037611
The only way for this to be overturned is that it bring the numbers down, they panic and revert it.

They added my sleep paralysis demon to the game

>>2037611
here's to hoping that you're right anon. jewszcuki only ever stops making retarded decisions if it hurts his bottom line.

>>2037611
I can't think of any situation where they reverted shitty updates due to backlash, usually they just ignore everyone until people forget about it. They did bring back the oof sound though after several years so it's not impossible but it wasn't due to backlash.

The only way I can think of to effectively protest this is if all the really big games (Grow a garden, Adopt Me, Steal a brainrot, whoever else gets insane player numbers) all started implementing their own chat systems that are free for everyone, all at the same time once this rolls out. If some literal who with 5 visits total did it he would get banned instantly, sure. But what is Roblox gonna do if their cash cows did it? Ban them?

>>2038000
This would technically also benefit the big games even more because even more players would flock to their games since they're the only ones you can chat in, all-the-while Roblox is gonna have a problem, be jelly and mad.

what was the testing even for to be selling this for 1 tix in the first place? Can wear it after renting got removed thankfully.

>>2038017

anywhoo working on a game and I was trying to pin down a theme for my enemies for a KF1 but roblox. One in my mind I wrote down is having the zeds be nu-roblox shit like bacon hairs while the players be pre-2013 robloxians but it's kinda iffy idea that's conflicting if people will play it for that or I should stick to the theming of zeds and player's characters instead of predetermined by choice before a map loads or in the main menu.

What are some game ideas you thought about doing but can't for whatever reason? For me it's basically Blood & Iron but with a hood setting. Maps will be centered around real-life hood battles, but the gang bangers will be equipped with Napoleonic War era weapons. At the top of my head there will be infantry (regular gang banger with musket), Officer (pimp with cane and sideways pistol), Musician (gang banger with boom box), Calvary (motorcycle rider that does drive-bys), Navy (car driver that does drive-bys with cannons and transports troops) etc. I can't script and am a bit busy. v_v

>>2038249
>TYRESE, GIVE THESE NIGGAS A VOLLEY!

>>2038003
why would roblox be jelly about people flocking to the cash grab games?

>>2037202
My prediction came true. The same people that wanted safer roblox are already fighting against it being safer. This is just lovely isnt it? And now watch how Schlep, and EVERY fucking dramatuber will say that its all on roblox, yet who wanted roblox to be "safer"? Them and now they have it only to complain.

>>2038249
Tower Defense game, but based off BTD. Only TD game like that on Roblox is bubble gum tower defense

>>2037278
Yeah, but lets be real here. ODs and dramaniggers did play large role in this. Yet imo I would put most blame on parents who just give their kids ipad and just leave em be with unlimited internet access AND no talks about dangers of it.
>>2037611
Idk anon, roblox might be doing this to avoid harsh damage from lawsuits. Dont forget, the biggest of these lawsuits was launched by KOSA(USA's version of OSA) advocate. If anything now the real hopes should be "Please dont let that shit spill over the rest of internet.".

>>2038263
because the cash grab games are probably breaking their rules by having their own chat systems that bypass chat age verification.
Let's be honest, this change is gonna drive more people off platform to Discord so they can use that as further excuse for not being responsible for any grooming and stuff

>>2038325
I have been reading the replies to that announcement and there was one guy saying exactly this, that they all asked for it. He said "You can either have safety or privacy, but not both" and everyone was just flaming him and saying "WE DIDN'T ASK FOR THIS!!" Instead of genuinely trying to understand his point. Announcement threads are literally the /pol/ of Roblox.

>>2038338
>roblox might be doing this to avoid harsh damage from lawsuits
then they would fix their moderation, they're doing this to collect data and sell it to advertisers and governments

>>2038249
Wouldnt be that hard to shit out a prototype

Anyone here tried Notoriety? The Roblox copy of Payday? It just keeps disconnecting me and it’s unplayable.

>>2038361
everyone in that thread is obviously underaged, so it follows that they're shitting themselves over losing their chat perms kek

>>2038325
>"safer roblox" can only equal forced ID submissions to israel
yeah dude alright

>>2038000
>literal who games

>>2038495
>unc doesn't know about hit roblox game steal a brainrot.
NGMI

>>2038550
roblox staff members are unironically cucks

>>2037196 (OP)
Have you been working on your game, Anon?

>>2038600
Yes I've been diligently procrastinating for the past month

>>2038600
>someone actually made something instead of the tranny
finally, this thread is becoming a roblox gamedev thread

>>2038249
even if you can't script, it's pretty simple to learn, just put time into it

>>2038600
what is it?

>>2038606
maybe i'll learn roblox studio so the troon loses his monopoly. what should i know about the engine? is it node based like how godot is? i like how godot works

>>2038610
have you played Killing Floor? Basically imagine that but ROBLOX.

>>2038249
I don't have very many original ideas, but there are a lot of old games that I wish I could remake and expand on
>>2038600
I've slowly been getting back into devving after avoiding ROBLOX for a while. Despite all the shit that's wrong with this site, it still feels good to make progress working on something you really enjoy.

>>2038600
trying to learn 3D modeling but I'm really shit at it so I just keep starting over and giving up 3 minutes later every single time

>>2038612
>monopoly
nigga all he made is boob physics and a naval warfare like gun system

>>2038625
by monopoly, i mean the only source of devblogging in these threads. everything else is complaining and trolling

>>2038627
well we have the soijak tycoon fag

>>2038629
i think he finished his game and hasn't posted about it in some time

>>2038612
>node based
It's just Luau, you just right click, insert script and type. Roblox "game engine" is pretty simple that a retard could do it.

>>2038633
I don't know I don't care, here's a day night cycle I made a while ago because my other stuff is too barebones to show off just yet

>>2038651
wow that makes it look like the map is moving

>>2038364
>>2038609
Sorry guys, but with much knowledge comes great sorrow (I have the IQ of an African Tribesman), though I am also rather busy as stated before.
>>2038600
Checked. Been meaning to sketch out a design for a secret map to put into the /vm/ baseplate.

>>2037202
this affects literally no one except for underageds and thirdies who i dont want on the platform anyway

>>2038613
I was thinking over on how to do it but since you are, I'll look forward to yours instead. Kino... fucking kino...

>>2038725
esl

>>2038762
nice one buddy make sure to renew your ben simon patreon sub this month

is natural disaster survival just a game for hacker kids to be a nuisance now?

>>2038785
ROBLOX is gonna have a server authority system soon so, hopefully it'll patch those skids out.

>>2038788
that's good. i wonder why the developer doesn't do anything about it since it doesn't happen on any other game besides the abandoned old games like apocalypse rising

>>2038363
Nope, moderation will not cut it. The facial ID and shit however will cause then court can say "Yep, they have safety measures". Plus its alot quicker to implement verification than stop using AI mod.
>>2038375
Tbh, I think it might be 50/50 split. Some people sure are scared shitless at thought of not having chat, others are rightfully angry since data breaches will be massive. I stand that if schlep didnt decide to be cry baby in the WORST possible moment(Retard started this shit roughly around OSA shitstorm), then maybe we could have avoided this. But alas

i just went through selfie verification with a camera pointing to my computer screen of a realistic 3D face model i downloaded from sketchfab. if (You) can’t get past a simple “left to right” verification selfie, you are simply NGMI.

>>2038841
have fun losing your account when they crack down on that stuff

>>2038844
>there's people who actually think roblox is competent
lmao

my brother in christ, you sucked my cock

>>2038844
got a better solution then or are you gonna be a good goy and give up your ID

my brother in christ, if you seethe over that post, seek therapy LOL

>>2038854
yeah just don't chat anymore. play something better if that is a deal breaker

>>2038832
schlep just wanted a platform to speak about a, honestly, pretty dumb ban. roblox's reputation definitely tanked somewhat. I dont blame him, roblox brought it on themselves.

>>2038725
like 90% of people are against this, because they're mostly scared of data breaches + children wont play their brainrot games anymore since they like to chat and developers earn way less if they earn anything at all. games you need to verify your ID for are honestly not that popular, even if they're good.

>>2038875
nobody chats on roblox anymore. 99% of games chats are ghost towns, even ones that dont have
VC enabled.

>>2038875
Yeah but seriously, he could have waited with it for better moment. Instead of pushing it during time when it can cause more harm than good. His actions in the worst case scenario might spill over wider internet instead of just roblox.

>>2038875
>they're mostly scared of data breaches
theres more than enough information online already to get leaked. putting a face to a roblox account is meaningless
>developers earn way less
good, devex is not equivalent to a full time income unless you are in the top 5-105%
>games you need to verify your ID for are honestly not that popular
good, more gatekeeping

and like >>2038876 said, ingame chats is basically fucking dead. i only really play airship assault anymore and even as niche (500-1k CCU) as it is its still just a bunch of retards chucking random messages into the chatbox

Why is Roblox netcode so horrible? Every game I play has around 200 ping. While dota 2 and drg have a comfy 50 ping.

>>2038897
based brainless retard thinking a question like that is easily solvable
do you have shitty internet?
is the server region located far away from you?
is it a complex and/or poorly optimized game?

>>2038897
i get put into third world servers all the time so maybe the same thing happens to you

>>2038903
Shitty internet? Yep.
My location? Somewhere in the balkans.
The games? Poorly optimized.
Just put me in russian servers, those are playable compared to american or euro servers.

>>2038897
ROBLOX's netcode is fine unless you live in the third world. Latency issues are almost always an issue with the game you're playing.

>>2038600
yes! trying to juggle between this and the church i started working on in the /vm/ baseplate (i have been failing and neglecting that poor church)

>>2039042
forgot include SCs lmao im retarded

Came back to G&B for Halloween. Has the "switching-off-bugle-to-immediately-get-the-buff" trick been patched out?

>Admin Abuse on Grow a Garden is infinite money and every item ever given away
>On Fisch it’s just "get XP"
Damn I’m glad it got a clone and that it’s actually doing good, is "Fish It" good?

>>2039268
are you 10? why are you playing any of these games

>>2039304
why are you playing any of these games though
answer the question

>>2039315
It’s the fucking Roblox thread, the hell are you doing here if you aren’t playing anything from Roblox?

So how do you guys feel about the Halloween Spotlight event (it ends tomorrow)? It was the only event I've participated in since The Classic and I actually liked it this time.

Did Roblox do something with the server regions? I was in a Florida server that suddenly switched to a South American one.

>>2039343
Hub world looks seriously awful, most of the prizes suck, and I don't care for any of the chosen games.

>>2039316
>to be a roblox player you must play ALL roblox games, even the dogshit ones!
ok.

>>2038249
didn't we already have a "da hood" game that was loosely this or am i forgetting
would be cool in a more structured environment

>>2039378
they really should've put all the games in a central area instead of dimly lit corners

>>2038249
i want to spit in the face of monad studios and show them that the game they have pitifully failed at making twice in a row can actually be done without any of their nonsense such as permadeath, gamba and an absence of QA
captcha: WSAHRT

>>2039514
you're probably thinking of "thy hood" which is more of an ironic gimmick game and not very structured at all

>>2039343
It was meh, some good events in games but i was expecting more from the finale.
https://streamable.com/eh1w26

Much better stuff than the haunt, thats for sure.

Are there any visual novel/text-adventure story games on roblox you guys would be willing to recommend?

Are there any good guides on parallel Lua? On the devforum there's only useless shit, and YouTube gives me completely unrelated results

>>2039765
>multithreading roblox
soulless garbage

>>2039806
>shitty 5 fps performance is le sovl

>>2039316
there's other things to do on roblox instead of playing sloppy games

>>2039378
all shit, picrel best event. your opinion: wrong

Any fun randomizers that aren't groomer-core?

>>2039820
yes

>>2038897
If you live outside the US, East Asia or Germany ping fucking plummets

>>2039727
You again, still no, I don't play those on Roblox.
