Well, it was that time of the year two weeks ago at least. The annual Roblox Halloween Event! Every year the Halloween event is highly anticipated, and rightly so! In the past we've had great events, I've got fond memories of 2009's paintball and treasure hunt (Yes, two games!) while newer members might have fond memories of 2013's The Witching Hour. With this year's event being made by popular users Davidii, creator of 'Survival 404' and 'Heroes!' and Quenty, creator of 'Whatever Floats Your Boat' hopes were high that this would be another event to remember! But was it? Keep reading to find out!<br />

<br />
<a name='more'></a><b>Introduction</b><br />
<b><br /></b>
This is an on rail shooter, this means you neither have control of your movement nor your camera, the only thing you can control is where you can aim and shoot your gun and the game will take care of the rest for you. Like most events on Roblox a hat was available to win! This year up for grabs was a Nerf Tactical Vest. I'll talk more about that in a minute.<br />
<br />
<b>Gameplay</b><br />
<b><br /></b>
The most important bit of any game! How fun is it? Well, it's alright. That's all I can say about it. It can be a bit enjoyable for a bit until you realize it's just the same thing over, and over, and over again. The gameplay consists of moving to an area and shooting some zombies then moving to a new area and shooting more zombies and so on all in a group of four. To spice it up a bit the zombies start shooting very, very slow projectiles at you which doesn't help the gameplay too much. Yes I know that's what an on rail shooter is but the game just feels a bit too stale.<br />
<br />
To get the Nerf Tactical Vest you simply need to kill a zombie wearing the vest, that's it. After getting the vest there's no real reason to keep playing, there's just no incentive, assuming there was an incentive to get the vest in the first place which seems unlikely. That's the biggest problem with the gameplay in my opinion, I just never felt like I needed to or wanted to do this. This definitely reflects in the number of visits, with only 300,000 visits while last year's exceeded 1,000,000.<br />
<br />
<b>3/10</b><br />
<br />
<b>Scripting</b><br />
<b><br /></b>
For me the game worked pretty well overall but many users did report numerous bugs, including the "Missing Zombies Glitch" where no zombies would spawn. Something that did seem a little bit odd for me was the lack of a walking animation for our characters while moving around the map, this just seemed weird as I didn't think it would take much time to implement. Other than the weird walking and the occasional bug though it worked pretty well!<br />
<br />
<b>5/10</b><br />
<b><br /></b>
<br />
<b>Sponsorship </b><br />
<b><br /></b>
You've heard me mention this Nerf Tactical Vest... Nerf... If you can't tell by this and the thumbnail of the game, this game is sponsored by Nerf. No biggy right? Last year's event was sponsored too and that game was fine! Heck, I enjoyed last year's as it was nice and simple without the sponsor taking over too much. If only I could say the same about Nerf this year, wherever you look there's Nerf! Nerf posters, Nerf guns, Nerf prizes, Nerf zombies!<br />
<br />
Not only is the word 'Nerf' everywhere but they seem to have had a big part in deciding what the game consisted of too. Take a look at what the creator Davidii said:<br />
<br />
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
"<span style="background-color: #f9f9f9; font-family: 'Source Sans Pro', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 19.992px; white-space: pre-wrap;">You know, it's a funny story. I went into it expecting to save ROBLOX events too, but at every turn I wanted to add in something interesting or unique, it would run by Nerf and they would say no. They made me use only one weapon. They made me use only one type of ammunition. They vetoed two of the three maps we were planning to use. They would only let us make zombies that were green, and they made us put pumpkins on their heads. I didn't get the time to debug the main game because I was too busy jumping through hoops for Nerf and taking out stuff I'd spent time on."</span></blockquote>
<br />
Davidii also expressed his original intention to add a shop in game and more guns which would've definitely increased my desire to play for longer. For this reason I'm not blaming Davidii and Quenty at all, in fact if anything they should be commended for putting so much effort into the game and for putting up with the restraints they had to work with even if it didn't turn out as good as everybody wanted it to.<br />
<br />
<b>Conclusion </b><br />
<br />
I know this isn't Davidii and Quenty's fault but this game didn't end up being that good in my opinion. Without Nerf this may have been a completely different story. At the same time though I'm not blaming Nerf, they obviously gave money to Roblox and so they had the right to do whatever they thought was right to market their product. Perhaps in the future though events like this shouldn't be sponsored to avoid another repeat of this year.<br />
<br />
It's a shame as well that all this work is going to waste, I at least hope Davidii and Quenty can go back to this game now that Halloween's over and tweak a few things, add a few new features, remove the Nerf logos and maybe re-release this game as it should be as there are a clear lack of On Rail Shooters on Roblox.<br />
<br />
Sadly though, in it's current state I'm going to give the game a score of....<br />
<br />
<b>4/10</b><br />
<br />
Thanks for reading my review, what did you think of the game? Tell me in the comments!<br />

Our lord and saviour Builderman has recently tweeted a very interesting video! The video shows a robloxian traversing terrain in a much more realistic way than what we're used to as blocky humanoids. The tweet in question can be found <a href="https://twitter.com/DavidBaszucki/status/662682036373577728">here!</a><br />
<br />
Like most big changes made to Roblox these days I'm guessing this will cause a fair amount of debate in the community, some may appreciate the change where some might be happy with the way it is now. Need I remind you the backlash Roblox experienced during 2010 when introducing the Robloxian 2.0 body?<br />
<br />
Replies to Builderman's tweet have been mostly positive, with popular user <a href="http://www.roblox.com/users/35392/profile">Polyhex</a> (Creator of Super Bomb Survival) replying with "This is so exciting!!!". However at the same time the Youtube video has a 34% downvote rating (well, 34.02061856%) at the time of writing which isn't awful but isn't great either.<br />
<br />
Remember! This is only beta footage and might end up being completely different or it might <a href="http://blog.roblox.com/2012/07/exploring-a-crafting-system-in-roblox/">never happen!</a> Have you guys seen the footage? What do you think about it? Leave a comment telling us your thoughts!<br />

Hello, My name is AzculPlaysRoblox. It's been a while since i did not make any game reviews after i've joined here at Roblox News. I've been busy from outside world. Sorry for about that. So now we will be reviewing "Strife! [Alpha]" a game made by <a href="http://www.roblox.com/User.aspx?ID=209911" target="_blank">Fenrier</a> and was inspired by the original game.<br />
<br />
<a name='more'></a><br /><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh-JES2Rkw04VMbsO696voJ7fZyMyDGJIXsaMK9qXnsqYDs8A7B_8YqckHzh06ZlNHom7EsN1hAHE4MCcgc7m27XiC5gq24IJHlyw1hNjDUY5R_IFksh6Pda4WPXpNtFrCLvLkIHLJZv8yr/s1600/strife-review-p-3.png" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="195" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh-JES2Rkw04VMbsO696voJ7fZyMyDGJIXsaMK9qXnsqYDs8A7B_8YqckHzh06ZlNHom7EsN1hAHE4MCcgc7m27XiC5gq24IJHlyw1hNjDUY5R_IFksh6Pda4WPXpNtFrCLvLkIHLJZv8yr/s320/strife-review-p-3.png" width="320" /></a></div>
It's game modes are randomly chosen. FFA, Elimination and Deathmatch and also Team Deathmatch. If you are a veteran gamer then you should already know this, lol.<br />
It also has a Boss Battle Mode.<br />
<br />
This game has many classes to use at battle. They use unique fighting styles. They also use like energy and mana. Fighter, Mage, Rusher, Tank, Support and Hexer classes, It has many different strategies and advantage during combat. Not all of them are capable of fighting other classes. Some of them has weaknesses like Ichor. Which lacks range. You can just learn and master how to use each of classes like Vulca, a melee and range fighter.<br />
<br />
On this menu, you can see your status in-game. It can auto-save so don't worry. It shows how many wins, kills and loses did you got while playing throughout the game. You can also Change class and also customize the color of you're weapons. The shop is still under development. If i missed something, then just keep it to yourself. :)<br />
<br />
You can also go on training.It's a perfect place where you can learn and master your favorite class right there. The hitbox is not really accurate. Let me explain. When at the battle, if two persons 1 vs 1 and another enemy gets the last hit, the person who dealt the most damage to the player will have a kill. It's possible to killsteal if the enemy restores it's health and you did the most damage after the person who dealt the most damage before.<br />
<br />
When in the fight, You can't just jump at the edge of the map. You will just kill yourself and lose. There can be players teaming at FFA. All classes has some abilities to deal more damage to their enemies. The buttons are ZXCV, the letter V key is the ultimate ability of each classes. It can deal true damages to their enemies.<br />
<br />
The game is still in development. It's on the alpha version now. Other new classes and improvements of this game can be released soon. <a href="http://www.roblox.com/games/176068965/Strife-Alpha" target="_blank">But you can play it by clicking here!</a><br />
<br />
My ratings on this game are.... (My Opinion, sorry.)<br />
<b>Gameplay 9/10 -</b> Why did i gave it 9 out of 10? The game is really simple! Fight and win. There are many other games that are better than this game. But, i like how the game was developed. You fight with some classes with some abilities to use, try to be the last one standing at the battle and improve yourself to be better on each battles. It's really fun! I like it.<br />
<br />
<b>Scripting 7/10 </b>- I don't know much about scripting. But Fenrier still improving the game with new features and more excitement. I played this game and sometimes, players discover some glitches which needs to be fixed. He might gave up his time doing scripting, coding and fixing bugs on this game. I'll look forward to it.<br />
<br />
<b>Conclusion</b><br />
That was a bit cheap rating i think? But Fenrier did a great job working on this game. It sometimes get into first page and get more visits. I suggest this game like 72% for all players. Done?<br />
<br />
Thank you for reading. Im really really sorry if i haven't posted awhile. If you have any comments or opinions, please just post a comment below. I might missed something about the game and I already told you about that. And also suggest anything for me to improve myself writing better posts.<br />

<b>Introduction</b><br />
<b><br /></b>
Hello friends, in this segment called "Too Many Visits" we look at games that simply don't deserve the fame it's got. Today's game is <a href="http://www.roblox.com/games/175139256/NEW-Boys-And-Girls-Hangout">Boys and Girls Hangout</a> made by <a href="http://www.roblox.com/User.aspx?ID=32808416">Dark1020</a>. To date this game has accumulated over 10 million visits with roughly 1 dislike per 3.3 likes and 61,000 favourites. Do I think this game deserves those statistics? Of course not! That's crazy! This game it absolutely awful.<br />
<br />
<br />

<br />
<b>Building</b><br />
<b><br /></b>
Adjacent to the spawn is a building, the creator couldn't have put any less effort into this building. It's a single coloured square shaped building with two colours, pink for girls and blue for boys. This building includes body morphs to turn you into an irresistible hunk, a range of hairstyles and a dance floor for some reason... Also this building is infested with online dating 8 year olds getting ready for a date.<br />
Outside we have a bar, a stage, a pool, a house, a park, hot air balloons and a skate park. Let's play a game! Let X be the number of models in this game that were created by Dark1020. Do the sum 1/X. Congratulations! You've reached infinity! Yes, that is correct. There are 0 models made by Dark1020 here, everything is a free model. Not only has he put minimal effort into building but he also couldn't be bothered to arrange it nicely. Everything's just a mess as you'll be able to see in the picture below.<br />

Well... Uhhh... That's a tough one... You just walk around and talk to people? Or in the case of 99% of visitors, go and get a love interest. Go and skate around a bit too in the skatepark I guess... Sorry I'm struggling to type anything here. It's really really bad and boring. </div>

I just need to make a quick comment on the thumbnail of this game. There are no pictures of this actual game. The image used in the thumbnail has actually been taken in a game with proper architecture. This shouldn't be allowed, it is a misleading thumbnail.</div>

Let me repeat what I said at the start. This game has 10 million visits! 10 MILLION! How has this happened? This game is absolutely awful, barely any effort has been put into this game, not even to place the free models in decent places. If you play this game, you better hope none of your friends see you there or you might just lose your social status. This has 10 million more visits than it should!</div>

<b>Introduction </b></div>
<br />
Hello, I'm Rudolph101 and today I'll be reading <a href="http://www.roblox.com/games/47228235/Find-the-Dancing-Bananas">Find the Dancing Bananas</a> by <a href="http://www.roblox.com/User.aspx?ID=14449080">Planet3arth</a>! I didn't go to this game with high expectations. I only played it because as usual, nothing else on the front page really appealed to me that much. That's a shocker right? I found this low down in the games page, like, really far down. I predicted I'd be on this game for a maximum of two minutes, however for once, I was wrong. Searching a map to find dancing fruit turned out to be pretty enjoyable.<br />
<br />
It by no means changed my life, I didn't have a different outlook on reality after playing it, I still do not believe in the banana lord, nor do I find myself daydreaming about dancing fruit but it did give me an enjoyable hour or two.<br />

<b>Gameplay</b><br />
<br />
If you really need me to describe what you do in 'Find the Dancing Bananas' then maybe you should seek help. If you are desperate to know though, you look around a map trying to uncover *Spoilers* dancing bananas. Most of them aren't too easy to find which provides some welcome challenge. While some are out in the open, for example in a tree or on top of a mountain, some are more well hidden in a cave or in a cloud. Some of these bananas seemed a bit tricky at first as half of them are hidden behind fake walls but after a while I got used to seeing the outlines of these fake walls and therefore wasn't too much of a problem. I would've preferred less fake walls though and more well hidden bananas although a few fake walls do make it more interesting.<br />
<br />
I played through this game with my friend, working as a team in this game made it a lot more enjoyable in my opinion. Also with two people looking you're way more likely to come across some of the harder to find bananas. I heavily recommend playing this as a team, if you can convince anybody to get on in the first place that is.<br />
<br />
A lot of gear is allowed into the game, no weapons thank god but a lot of other useful gear. This gives some people an advantage over the others and also tempts people to cheat by using, for example the umbrella gear. What? No I didn't use it! Of course not! That's outrageous!<br />
<br />
<b>Presentation </b><br />
<b><br /></b>
The presentation is one of the weaker aspects of this game. The architecture is nice, the five individual segments of the map provide some variety, although I felt like these areas could've all done with a bit more stuff. The snow segment for example has a few snowmen, some trees and a mountain. Maybe a few more structures would've provided more areas to hide the bananas too which would've reduced the need for fake walls.<br />
<br />
As well as this, the GUI in the game which details you on all the hidden bananas was a pain to use and also glitchy. Several times it told me I'd found a banana when I hadn't and to navigate the GUI I had to scroll through every banana one by one until I found the desired banana. Do you know how many bananas I scrolled through? If I told you you wouldn't believe me!<br />
<br />
<b>Overall </b><br />
<b><br /></b>
Overall I enjoyed this game a lot. The game does have a few problems but it was definitely a fun way to spend an hour or two with friends! I recommend you play this game, unless you're the type of person with standards and a reputation.<br />
<br />
Positives:<br />
<br />
- Fun to play<br />
- Gives a welcome challenge<br />
- Fun game to play as a team<br />
<br />
Negatives:<br />
<br />
- Gear allows you to cheat<br />
- Not enough map structures<br />
- Poorly made GUI<br />
<br />
<b>Score: 7.5/10</b><br />

Hello my beautiful readers and welcome to an interview I had with <a href="http://www.roblox.com/User.aspx?id=1184845">Legoseed</a>. Today I'll be asking him mostly about his newest game <a href="http://www.roblox.com/games/185555379/World-Expedition">World Expedition</a> which was recently featured on Roblox News! To date his game has exceeded 400,000 visits with a 94% thumbs up rate! </div>

<span style="background-color: white; color: #343434; line-height: 18.1745452880859px;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">It was definitely fueled by my love for travel and exploring!

Welcome to another edition of 'Beta Check This Out' where I preview a promising games in their beta stages which are not currently ready to be reviewed. Due to the sad recent passing of the president of Nintendo, the amazing Satoru Iwata, I thought I'd check out a Nintendo based ROBLOX game! As a result I've chosen to show off <a href="http://www.roblox.com/User.aspx?ID=3741896">PatrickBlox</a>'s and <a href="http://www.roblox.com/User.aspx?id=62006667">Partcline</a>'s <a href="http://www.roblox.com/games/222772350/Early-access-Super-R-BLOX-64-Adventure">Super ROBLOX 64 Adventure</a> which is obviously inspired by the Nintendo 64 classic, Super Mario 64, but how does it compare to the original?</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
</div>
<a name='more'></a><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<b>Introduction</b></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
To this day one of my favourite games of all time is Super Mario 64! Well.. Super Mario 64 DS, don't judge me for never playing the original. I love nearly everything about it, the music, the characters, the levels! Therefore upon finding a ROBLOX game based on it, I was very excited to try it out!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
The game is in beta and therefore only one level (with 6 obtainable stars) is playable at the moment and some glitches are expected.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<b>Haven't We Seen This Before?</b></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
As I started playing the game I was unsure whether it was inspired by Mario 64 or a clone of the it. The opening cutscene suggested this was a clone with princess Peach... Err, I mean Shedletsky inviting you to the castle for some cake before transitioning to the castle gardens following by you emerging from a pipe. Everything looked pretty identical so far to the original with some minor differences. However after walking into the castle and playing the first level this proved not to be the case! This is a whole new game with a bunch of its own ideas!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<b>Presentation</b></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<b><br /></b></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
The game looks very nice! It's been built to obviously resemble the original with its architecture and it's art style. The game is full of bright colours as you can see in the image below, this gives the game a happy, joyful atmosphere. The audio also helps convey this atmosphere with enough stolen music tracks and sound effects to keep Nintendo's lawyers awake at night. Most of the music isn't actually from the original game but from other Nintendo classics such as Zelda and 3D World but they all help convey a very Nintendo like vibe, and man, what a vibe it is. In the actual levels the on screen GUIs have been made well to resemble the original with a coin count, life count, star count and health meter!</div>

<b>Controls</b></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<b><br /></b></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
WASD and Space to jump as you'd expect. Shift is used to crouch which can be used in long jumps or high jumps and by jumping three times in a row you can do the classic triple jump as seen in Mario 64 ending with a well animated front flip. A ground pound is possible by pressing 'R' in mid air and a belly jump can be executed by pressing 'E' while running. These controls work very well and I haven't had any problems with using them so far.</div>

<b>Gameplay</b></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<b><br /></b></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
The first star involves platforming your way around the open level to find piles of wood in order to build a ladder to progress through the level. This is NOT bob-omb battlefield! From what I can tell it's a completely original level. A couple of piles are lying around the spawn area while another forces you to jump across moving platforms without falling into the deadly purple substance and swing on a pair of vines. Trust me, it isn't just simple lava jumps! You have your health meter on the top left which will deplete as you take damage. After losing all your health yo... OH FORGET IT! You don't need me to explain how a health meter works. After reaching the end of the level you are awarded with a power star to help you on your voyage across the galaxy to stop Bowser and his Galaxy Generator ultimately stopping the ultimate demise of the universe! Oh wait that's Mario Galaxy 2... Here your stars help you open doors. </div>

<b><br /></b></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
While the controls and presentation stay true to the original the game is packed full of its own ideas and is most definitely not just a clone. Clearly a lot of hard work has gone into this so far and I heavily recommend keeping your eye on it! As more levels are added the game will only get better and better. </div>

<b><br /></b>
Hello my fellow readers, in this segment called "Too Many Visits" we will look at games that simply don't deserve the fame it got. <a href="http://www.roblox.com/games/18195724/Canoe-without-a-Paddle-Update">Canoe Without a Paddle!</a> by <a href="http://www.roblox.com/User.aspx?ID=1356552">smokenchicken</a> is a good example of this. Over its 6 long years of activity the game has raked up over 6 million visits. Before you all start shouting at me "Rudolph! This game is 6 years old! Give it a rest!", the game was updated in May so that's no excuse. Anyway let's begin our in depth look.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEim3Jy3GXogdHLd9gIPeYBe5AtSt9sDy2n4dKOXAwqTyczCc4NjfsppXpGVjoSLsQu5j8ohDJHb0xuV0ZOLQTxibHgJKdNruu1r3UH9Pb3eYP0DiRQwsdy5PxnQdItvjvdSywmwc5xco2tv/s1600/Canoe+Without+a+Paddle.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="180" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEim3Jy3GXogdHLd9gIPeYBe5AtSt9sDy2n4dKOXAwqTyczCc4NjfsppXpGVjoSLsQu5j8ohDJHb0xuV0ZOLQTxibHgJKdNruu1r3UH9Pb3eYP0DiRQwsdy5PxnQdItvjvdSywmwc5xco2tv/s320/Canoe+Without+a+Paddle.png" width="320" /></a></div>

<br />
<br />
<a name='more'></a><b>Building</b><br />
<b><br /></b>
The only bit of the game which looks relatively good is the spawn area. Upon spawning you are surrounded by trees and rocks with a cave behind you because why not? Up until a recent update the cave was empty and pointless, however after the update the cave is no longer empty! It now has a sleeping bag, two lanterns, a knife and a very well made campfire. While the cave certainly looks better now, there is still the minor problem of it being completely pointless. Why is it here? Why is somebody camping in there? Maybe it was put in to keep us guessing about who we are, who we will become and why we are here. Or maybe the creator needed some filler. The majority of the game is a river... Just a river. The water is made up of bricks with stretched decals and the land on the side is populated by trees. The 'Winners' area has had the least amount of effort put into it, it's just a big lake (made up of another stretched water decal) with a few islands in the middle. There's another cave on one of the islands holding some gear. This whole area however looks really really bad.<br />
<br />
<b>Story </b><br />
<b><br /></b>
I hear thousands of you gasp in surprise. Story? Most of you who've played this game probably were never aware there was actually a reason you were canoeing down without a paddle. Of course there was! Although never discussed in game, the description of the game clearly states <i>"</i><span style="background-color: white; color: #191919; line-height: 24px; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><i>Jump in your Canoe and get down the river! The waters are rising. Escape the river and all Roblox evil minions, and get to safety? Will you survive? Probably! Probably NOT!" </i>If that's not enough story for you then I don't know what is. You are trying to "Escape the river and all Roblox evil minions". It doesn't get better than that guys... </span></span><br />
<span style="background-color: white; color: #191919; line-height: 24px; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></span>
<span style="background-color: white; color: #191919; line-height: 24px; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><b>Gameplay</b></span></span><br />
<br />
Gameplay consists of sitting in a canoe to the end. That is it. You do nothing to control the canoe, you just have to watch and hope it doesn't fall off the edge (which it most certainly will) to your slow painful death. The hardest part of this game is actually getting to the canoes in the first place as the game is always packed with people trying to kill you with their gear. That's right, the game allows gear! Because what could possibly go wrong? I died about 10 times before I actually managed to get away in my canoe. Some guy kept trying to throw a grenade into my canoe! This is one of the game's main problems in my opinion, and the creator is very aware of this problem. He's even made a separate version of the game where no fighting gear is allowed but you have to pay 25 robux for it! It's very bad...<br />
<b><br /></b>
<b>Conclusion </b><br />
<b><br /></b>
In conclusion, the bad building, very poor story and dull (sometimes annoying) gameplay make this game a mess. The game could be so much better, if it fixed the gear and added some interesting building and story and maybe improved the gameplay a bit. Just let us control the canoe at least! But with the game in its current state, it's a mystery how it managed to get 6 million visits.<br />

Beta Check This Out is a new segment where I will be previewing games in their beta stages not yet ready to be reviewed. Today we are going to be looking at <a href="http://www.roblox.com/User.aspx?ID=1184845">Legoseed</a>'s <a href="http://www.roblox.com/games/185555379/World-Expedition">World Expedition</a>! This is a game where you can explore the world! With a range of countries to explore including Ireland, China and Mexico! In this preview I'll be showing off two countries and telling you why you should be as excited for this game as I am!</div>

<b><br /></b></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
After entering the game you spawn in an airport. Even from the airport you can begin to see the effort that went into this game. Nothing here has been rushed, the architecture is great, there are vending machines and water fountains lining the walls and the "Runway Grill" where you can get 'Quality Food On The Go!', but if you think this is as good as the building gets you've got another thing coming! To begin adventuring get your boarding pass and enter the correct terminal, however only terminal A is accessible at this moment in time. Off we go!</div>

<b><br /></b></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
In China you are greeted with soft Chinese music, the architecture here is beautiful as you can see in the picture below. A man stands in the street selling Chinese food, the helpful GUIs on the side show you where you are on the world map and gives you some fun trivia about the country you're in, for example how to say "Hello" in Chinese. This shows that World Expedition is more than just a fun game, it's educational. Another notable thing to do in China is visit the Great Wall of China which has had as much care put into it as the rest of China. In case you couldn't tell, I loved China!</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
The next country I visited was Italy! More specifically, Venice. This is one of the newest additions and so still has a few empty areas, but what has been put in already looks brilliant! Water is everywhere in Venice and here it's no different, the smooth terrain's beautiful looking water looks <span style="font-family: inherit;">brilliant here!

<div>
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: small;">I've only shown off two out of the current five countries available to explore so I very highly recommend visiting the game to check out the rest! The other 3 countries are Ireland, Mexico and Denmark! As much care has gone into these countries as everything I've shown you today! More maps are being added all the time too with the next one being India! You have no reason not to visit such a brilliantly built game, it's a nice way to spend half an hour. </span></div>

Most of us have played a Speed Run game on ROBLOX. These games involve running at high speeds across many levels jumping from platform to platform without falling off. <a href="http://www.roblox.com/games/183364845/Speed-Run-4">Speed Run 4</a> made by <a href="http://www.roblox.com/User.aspx?ID=41163986">Vurse</a> is by far the most popular with hundreds of players playing at any one time during the day. But is Speed Run 4 actually worth playing? </div>

What does this game do different to distinguish it from every other speed run? Well, not much at all really. In fact gameplay wise it is almost identical. The only differences are very minor which include jumping and running animations and also collectible cards. While the running and jumping animations are undoubtedly very well done they fail to add much to the gameplay. The collectible cards are fun to collect but most of them are placed right in the middle of the path meaning they are very easy to get, also they do nothing at all giving you very little incentive to collect them. Although it doesn't distinguish itself too much, the overall idea of completing levels while running really fast does still feel fun, but if you weren't sold on the concept you won't be now. </div>

In conclusion, the gameplay does little different, but that doesn't mean it isn't fun.</div>

The level design isn't too bad. There are some well designed levels, my favourite being the first level. There are curves and split paths and ramps as far as the eye can see. After this level though they get less interesting with every level you play. By level 3 you're just jumping on floating purple platforms. It feels as if the game was being rushed and the creator gave up on even trying to make the levels interesting. As well as this, the creative levels do seem to be ripped off from the original Speed Run game. Therefore although it's good, it doesn't count. Creativity and originality are two very important things in video game design and I don't see much of it here. </div>

In conclusion the level design is mostly lazy with either a stolen concept or simply a dull one. </div>

While the game is free it feels very much like the creator was in it for the money. For example there are two gamepasses each giving you more levels. You can by a Mario level pack or a Minecraft level pack. Again, ripping off of other people's ideas but that's not what bothers me. The thing that bothers me is that these cost 90 robux each. I only bought the Mario level pack and to my surprise the pack wasn't even complete, there were only 4 current levels which barely resembled Mario other than a few decals. Therefore I didn't even bother buying the Minecraft pack. The way the creator can rip off it's audience is awful.</div>

As well as this money grab, we have a gamepass that puts fire under your feet as you run for 35 robux! It's crazy how little paying 35 robux can give you here. I didn't even bother buying this, but to my surprise 9,000 other people did. </div>
<div dir="ltr" id="yiv2212674712yui_3_16_0_1_1435409900518_4004" style="font-family: HelveticaNeue, 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, 'Lucida Grande', sans-serif; font-size: 16px;">

While there is the option to skip a level for 25 robux, although I think this price is too high perhaps he just didn't want anybody skipping every level which is more understandable. </div>
<div dir="ltr" id="yiv2212674712yui_3_16_0_1_1435409900518_4004" style="font-family: HelveticaNeue, 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, 'Lucida Grande', sans-serif; font-size: 16px;">

In conclusion, the creator of this game is very clearly in it for the money, the prices for all of these gamepasses is way to high and are very poorly done. </div>

While the basic idea of Speed Run is present, it's poor innovation, level design and rip-off prices really ruins the entire experience. I would not recommend playing this entry in the series and would instead recommend playing the original as this is where all the good ideas originate from. </div>

Another downside is that there is a three second cool down period to your invisibility, which can give the citizen's a chance to escape you.</div>

Overall</div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">
Playing both sides, I got a chance to really play the game. It is fun on both "teams", and the script goes well into game-play. An example of this is when Slender is invisible but near, there are quiet whispers everywhere, which makes it even more intense and scary. Overall, I would rate the game at about 8.5 out of 10, I say this because there can be some glitches in script, and the game can be further improved on, but this game is a great game overall, and worth playing.</div>

My job now is I'm going to ask you what event you would like to see us hold here at Roblox News. We could hold an Egg Hunt, our Duck Hunt, or even a new event. I'm giving all the readers the option to choose a new event, or an old one. Please comment your ideas and tell us what you want to see!!<br />
<br />
Or-- we could completely forget about the hunting, and make a whole new game, maybe an MMO, or a city-based game, or even something completely random like Marble Ride is. It's you, the fans, choice!<br />

This beanie is selling for an outraegously, cheap price of 10 robux.</span><br />
<div>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"> As of 3/22, the Robot Beanie had <b>about</b> 4,800 sales and 170 favorites.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"> The hat effectively works with many hat combinations. For example, wearing this hat with the Midnight Blue Winter Scarf from the 2014 Winter Games would look really nice, in my opinion.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"> The Robot Beanie fits tight to your head, so don't try to put an hair under it.</span></div>

<div class="blogger-post-footer">Roblox News Blog Feed!</div>Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11616204247654012738noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8296977955347199966.post-77830582058950997122015-02-21T10:34:00.000-08:002015-02-21T10:34:06.314-08:00Roblox Place/Game review MAD Paintball.Hello all, my name is xLando.<br />
<br />
So, MAD Studios (I made a article on them, link right <a href="http://www.arbirator-robloxnews.com/2014/11/roblox-game-studios-unfinished.html" target="_blank">here</a>) have made another game, a sort of successor to The Mad Murderer, MAD Paintball. It has all the characters we have come to know and love from TMM, but it's an FPS themed game. A bold new step for loleris, Mad Studios' creator.<br />
<br />
<a name='more'></a><br />
<br />
So, paintball has been around for a <u style="font-weight: bold;">very </u>long time, as has paintball games on ROBLOX. The rules of paintball are fairly easy to comprehend, the guns are loaded with balls of paint which splatter all over you when you get hit. So, once you have been hit, or you surrender, your out of the game. So, it's basically the same in ROBLOX, right? Well, yes and no. You see, your player can take a lot of hits, much more than any human being could, as paintballs sting, and once your hit a few times, it's time to surrender.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://t5.rbxcdn.com/1f57e11ebec0fe6e13354dded6a8cb59" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://t5.rbxcdn.com/1f57e11ebec0fe6e13354dded6a8cb59" height="179" width="320" /></a></div>
<br />
<br />
(NOTE: Facts may be a tad outdated.) So, enough satire and comparison, lets get to the good part. MAD Paintball has four (playable characters, to start off as) each of said characters are from TMM, and it's fun to see the familiar faces. Each character has a 'class' of sorts, each with their own merits.<br />
<br />
For example, Chazz, an in-game character, is a weapon load out. People, as weapons, that's new...right? Well, no, games such as Team Fortress Two have always had people as weapon load-outs. So it's not a new idea, of course, using The Mad Murderer characters may have some nostalgia perks.<br />
<br />
<div style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">
<img alt="url.jpg" src="webkit-fake-url://E47EE47D-F6A8-4252-87E0-D48D52DAEBAC/url.jpg" /></div>
<div style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">
<br /></div>
So, what makes this game so special? I mean, It's the same boring old paintball idea. But MAD Studio, and Loleris have built an ever-lasting fan base, starting with chat voice, and building ever since. So, people who liked TMM, will play this game, and they'll be hooked, and the process will repeat with a lot of MAD Studio games.<br />
<br />
It's just a short, filler article, but I hope you enjoy. Also, Don't worry about our hiatus of inactivity, we'll make sure to keep this blog alive.<br />

<span style="color: #4d4d4d; font-family: "Candara"; font-size: 14.0pt;"><br /></span></div>
<div align="center" class="Normal" style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #4d4d4d; font-family: "Candara"; font-size: 14.0pt;">Today we will be reviewing an obtainable hat for all of those NBC members! Read our article below
to find out more on this hat!</span></div>
<div align="center" class="Normal" style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div align="center" class="Normal" style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #252525; font-family: "Candara"; font-size: 14.0pt;">All you have to do is go to your My Account settings, and verify your email address by 9 AM PDT November
13th! The hat will be rewarded on or after November 17th. </span><span style="color: #252525; font-family: Candara; font-size: 14pt;">Now that you know how to get this hat, let’s review it!</span></div>
<div align="center" class="Normal" style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div align="center" class="Normal" style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div align="center" class="Normal" style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: green; font-size: 14pt;"><span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Mesh: 6/10</span></span></div>
<div align="center" class="Normal" style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div align="center" class="Normal" style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Candara"; font-size: 14.0pt;">The mesh is definitely interesting. On the top, there are two horns that personally do not fit in a knight helmet.
The mohawk style hair on the top of the actual helmet, makes this hat look like there is a real soldier inside. The part that protects the head is very nicely detailed, with small bumps.</span></div>
<div align="center" class="Normal" style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div align="center" class="Normal" style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: green; font-size: 14pt;"><span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Texture: 4/10</span></span></div>
<div align="center" class="Normal" style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div align="center" class="Normal" style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Candara"; font-size: 14.0pt;">The texture is really dull. Gray/Black/Brown is the whole color pattern. The holes towards the end of the horn are
filled in with black. Basically, all of the hat is mostly brown and gray.</span></div>
<div align="center" class="Normal" style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div align="center" class="Normal" style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: green; font-size: 14pt;"><span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Price: 10/10 (Obtainable)</span></span></div>
<div align="center" class="Normal" style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div align="center" class="Normal" style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Candara"; font-size: 14.0pt;">The hat is obtainable to anyone with or without robux and tickets. All you have to do is follow the steps at the
top.</span></div>
<div align="center" class="Normal" style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div align="center" class="Normal" style="text-align: center;">
<span style="background-color: white; font-size: 14pt;"><span style="color: #38761d; font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Overall: 7/10</span></span></div>
<div align="center" class="Normal" style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div align="center" class="Normal" style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Candara"; font-size: 14.0pt;">I give this hat a rating over 5 because ROBLOX is giving users without a membership an opportunity to get a free
hat. However, ROBLOX could do much better with creating a hat that can be used for everyday characters.</span></div>
<div align="center" class="Normal" style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div align="center" class="Normal" style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: 14pt;"><span style="color: #38761d; font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Item Description:</span></span></div>
<div align="center" class="Normal" style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div align="center" class="Normal" style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: 14pt;">This hat will be awarded to active players after Nov. 17, 2014 who have a verified email address by 9 am PDT Nov. 13, 2014.</span></div>

Yes, I'm here to talk about the overly-impossible gift hunt, and maybe what would come out of these presents from the depths unknown, which all of you certainly bought.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
DISCLAIMER: You have been juggling a broken teacup with a milkshake straw in your sock while dancing to the Canadian national anthem, all with your iron man costume in your baby pool on your 8th birthday party only if it was July 20th and it was a full moon. Otherwise, just pay me $40,000.<br />
<a name='more'></a><div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="text-decoration: underline;">I. Brief Overview</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
This is satire. I'm making a lot of fun of these Christmas gifts because most/all are terrible. I'll be reviewing <b>Quality, Obtainable Gifts, Price, </b>and <b>Prizes. </b>Just so you know, I don't really plan on buying any gifts (they're usually not that good of quality, and I spend my money on cthulhu hats), and <u>please don't post leaks in the comments, most people want it to be a surprise</u>. Other than that, let's begin!</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<u>II. Quality</u></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
I'm not talking about the gift packages, or the prizes here. I'm talking about the thoughtfulness of the challenges. Like over two gifts pertaining to playing games, not earning badges, just playing, for a long time beforehand knowing the requirements. So, take a look at <a href="http://www.roblox.com/The-Return-of-the-Badger-Badger-Badger-Gift-item?id=190005795" target="_blank">this gift</a>, a badge gift. it's not unlike <a href="http://www.roblox.com/Opened-Festive-Gift-of-Impossibility-item?id=137716962" target="_blank">this badge gift</a>. It's gift for running ads. Usually Christmas gifts are about new features ROBLOX has come up with in the year. But in this case, it's a copy of the older version. Sure, badge gifts are pretty popular, but take a look at the two images I have at the beginning of this post. They're two gifts for having popular ads. One, of course, would have cost 40,000 robux (and is on sale for R$500), and the other didn't take a whole lot of work. But we'll cover this in the next category.<br />
<br />
<u>III. Obtainability</u><br />
Here's the kicker. Most of these gifts are impossible to get. Let's see- <a href="http://www.roblox.com/Opened-Cool-Gift-of-Nice-and-Busy-Users-item?id=189749728" target="_blank">playing games 20 of 30 past days</a>, <a href="http://www.roblox.com/Sharp-Gift-of-Been-There-Played-That-item?id=190006087" target="_blank">playing 30 of top 50 games</a>, <a href="http://www.roblox.com/Impressionable-Gift-of-Publicity-Explosions-item?id=190076449" target="_blank">spending close to R$40,000 on ads</a>, <a href="http://www.roblox.com/Gift-of-Friends-and-Followers-item?id=190076296" target="_blank">a gift awarded to only 2,000 people with some stupid requirement</a>, <a href="http://www.roblox.com/Delightful-Gift-of-the-Developer-item?id=190076262" target="_blank">or being a delevoper worth about $13</a>. These, as you see, are all but 4 gifts. And just about all required you to do something way before you knew the requirement. Or how only a <a href="http://www.roblox.com/Beautiful-Gift-of-the-Plentiful-Products-item?id=190077131" target="_blank">small amount of people get the gift</a>, and you can do nothing about it. Gifts are supposed to be something you work for, not something you just recieve because you happen to have a generally poor taste in games, or because you are unhappily rich, as stated in the next section...<br />
<br />
<u>IV. Prices</u><br />
Yes, just about every single gift has a flaw. Take, for example, the <a href="http://www.roblox.com/Opened-Gift-of-the-Maker-item?id=189785233" target="_blank">Gift of the Maker</a>. Going to a roblox event would probably make you a small minority in the roblox world. You could have either actually gone, bought an area top hat, or redeem gift cards during virtual bloxcon. But of course, where probably less than 5000 people have a maker faire top hat (I think the roblox events were very poorly set up this year, but that has nothing to do with this), it's a gift for 100 robux. Or the <a href="http://www.roblox.com/Delightful-Gift-of-the-Developer-item?id=190076262" target="_blank">gift for becoming a delevoper</a> at R$1250, making a developer worth about $13. That's the low end- but what about the high? Maybe <a href="http://www.roblox.com/Beautiful-Gift-of-the-Plentiful-Products-item?id=190077131" target="_blank">a gift, which for some reason is impossible and 5,000 robux</a>. And the prices are only doubling. But where do we go from here? What will come out of these gifts? Next section...<br />
<br />
<u>V. Prizes</u><br />
Only some of these gifts have opened up. But it's really all the material I need. Let take a look <a href="http://www.roblox.com/Opened-Cool-Gift-of-Nice-and-Busy-Users-item?id=189749728" target="_blank">at this R$50 gift</a>, which opened up to<a href="http://www.roblox.com/Winter-Styles-Scarf-and-Hat-item?id=190113316" target="_blank"> a pretty good hat/scarf/snow goggles combination</a>. This prize was pretty good, now let's compare it with the maker faire gift, and <a href="http://www.roblox.com/Golden-Gears-Bow-Tie-item?id=190245296" target="_blank">its prize</a>. It doesn't look as good, despite being double the other gift. Most of these prizes will be bad. I'll make some guesses (without the help of LeakBlox) here:<br />

Good game, nice, fun; very competitive. I mean, it's fun: ROBLOX engines are the only problem.<br />
<br />
<a name='more'></a><br /><br />
I honestly love games based on sport, as I play a lot of football myself in real-life, I enjoy seeing the virtual replication on ROBLOX; other games. TPS 15 is very much like the well-known, FIFA 15 - to an extent. Many of the skills are added in by Tayfun (the owner). Some skills are very useful, like chipping, rainbow-flicks, and other sorts of brilliance.<br />
<br />
To play TPS, you really do need to get used to coordination - after all you can only use ROBLOX with a keyboard and a mouse. It takes a while to get a hang of this game, but after a while it becomes very nice and easy. There are other cool things about TPS I can rave about; I would be here forever if I did. However, there are also many bugs, glitches and problems that you can blame on the Roblox Physics Engines not being up-to-scratch.<br />
<br />
When playing TPS, it gets very competitive; perhaps too competitive. Many feuds result from someone thinking they are a "more skillful" player than the other. Which generally, isn't true, it's just that the person has won and they are now very arrogant. Teams do not get sorted fairly, either. Some teams are one-man teams; some are a full squad; some are just full of people who do not know how to dribble, generally all have one player that knows what to do; they get enraged.<br />
<br />
Some of the bugs TPS has is the positioning annoyance, in TPS, you have a rating that is determined by your positioning - however, if you are a Right Winger, and you need to go to the centre because your team can't defend, then it's not really a fair rating, because it goes down to a very low score and determines how fast you are.<br />
<br />
Roblox Physics are mainly the cause to all TPS glitches, because of the ball's physical movement around the pitch. The "last touch" determines who loses or gains rating and who takes the throw in, corner and goal-kick. A lot of the time ROBLOX Physics glitch this system up; this results in one team never getting a corner even though the corner is theirs and so-on-so-fourth.<br />
<br />
Overall, TPS is a fantastic game, quality scripting from the bite, just perhaps maybe it needs a bit more work done on it, because many physics glitches can be fixed by a nice-and-dandy piece of code.<br />
<br />

Thanks for reading.<br />

I haven't had much time. That's the reason, I'm very busy with exams, and my interest in ROBLOX has gone down recently because I haven't been able to do much. I will start rebuilding ROBLOX News over the christmas period, be wary of posts that are soon to come. :D<div class="blogger-post-footer">Roblox News Blog Feed!</div>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0
