Discussion / The Good and bad of the Nerd3 delivery of people.
« on: March 24, 2014, 04:35:06 PM »
Now listen, I'm brand new to this site, and i'll admit that it was Nerd3 who redirected me here. But i'm glad as hell he brought me here. I love games where everything is up to you and there's a billion possibilities. I'm also a sucker for simulator. A lot of people here are veterans, which is cool as hell, and i'd like to get to know you.
But I feel that there's a 50/50 mini-battle here on whether this attention is good or bad.
I understand that this game was kind of hidden away collecting dust like a drunken bear during hibernation. It had a small, respected community. I get that. A Youtuber with over 1 mil subscribers who links this website in his description could really dirty things up a bit. Your most likely going to get some A-holes that just want to bring this site down (really they're harmless). I bet you 75% percent of the people that made this account will forget about it in the next week and a half. Your website will probably slow down a bit, and lets hope it doesn't crash or whatever term you use.
But there are a lot of positives. There will be a small majority of people that will stick with this game and website and group and have fun and constantly try to make and share better robots than before, like i will. I can't build a robot to save (or end) my life right now but let's not go into that.
This seems far fetched (Not the pokemon) but maybe some developer will try to make a completely new engine for the game and tell people about and bring back the series or something. AND what if someone on network television saw this and said "Hey, there's still a fanbase for Robot fighting arenas. I should call up Sy-fy or something and see if they want to make a show like this!"
All i'm saying is that there is certainly going to be some good in this. But be careful, because always going to be that wave of comment spamming jerks you'll have to deal with before you reach the gold at the end of the rainbow or some other preppy metaphor like that. Word.
