I am very 'hands on' I started as a programmer, who attempted graphics and then I later hired artists, musicians, level designers, testers, and somehow found I had stopped programming, but design is something I still do. We still have a few of the team, but people do move around a lot in this industry. We have Julian who did level designs, Karl who did Programming, and I am chasing up some of the artists who might be able to do freelance for the project. I was the producer on LRR, the designs and concepts and all the Lego presentations and approvals came through me personally. I think a lot of CEOS of games companies now come straight in with a business degree, I am old school binary coder at heart.

TAKE IT BACK TO HELL. >:3

I agree with the other comments, although perhaps not put quite as harshly! It would get annoying to have all your rock raiders stuck in one area, unable to obey any of your other commands because of a lack of 'transmitter' You need gameplay ideas to keep the game moving along. When things don't happen the player gets frustrated.

Ok. I've been thinking. I haven't done much on the site for awhile. I've been on, but haven't really had anything to do. Well now I do! I wanted to contribute to the site somehow, and I like all these TCGs floating around, so I have started a project that I WILL work on daily, making cards based on LRR. Now I've heard about others with similar ideas, but I still want to do this anyway. Without further delay, here is the very first card to the series. The design is still a work in progress, but here is a rough copy of what the cards will look like. Let me know what you guys think of it and of this project. (And yes I was looking at a Yu-Gi-Oh card when designing this for reference.)

The game should involve AI cards along with the character cards. Your raider might attack, but then the AI card you drew forces it to walk up a wall, causing the attack to miss.

I present the Toa Komau I seem to be working in reverse order of the Turaga masks I made. Unfortunately I'm missing three of the Toa Metru masks because the largest shipment I placed on Bricklink never came... Check out these simalarities But some of the others are even worse. Only the Huna even kind of looks the same. Sorry I'm late. I don't have a good excuse this time.

This looks just like Yugioh. Making Yugioh cards is fun and all, but why not try to make one that is new? Obviously coming up with good rules for a TCG is hard (I say this from experience), but it's also really fun.

I think I'd still prefer Rock Raiders to Rock Raiders 2, if a better name can't be thought up, for the reasons mentioned above. You can have, say, Star Wars toys and LEGO Star Wars toys, so why not a Rock Raiders game and LEGO Rock Raiders game?

Looking good so far, but I can't help but think a whole trading card game around characters for all the classic LEGO games (not just RR) would be awesome!

Go to your garden, find a slug, stick it on top of your unmodded disk, and step on it until it's dead. Fly through the ground to China.

I'm also concerned about the "Rock Raider 2: Block Raiders" name. It might be better to have an original game with some elements based on LRR -- a spiritual sequel, if you want to call it that. Less legal issues, more flexibility. [8:43:52 PM] Lair: also how can he call it rock raiders 2 [8:44:36 PM] Cirevam: He said they purchased the trademark or something because LEGO let it expire, right? [8:45:31 PM] HIGH GUY Stesabe: Yes. [8:45:45 PM] Lair: it expired in 2009 [8:45:47 PM] Lair: but [8:45:56 PM] Lair: there still isn't a way it can be Rock Raiders 2 [8:46:05 PM] HIGH GUY Stesabe: Exactly. [8:46:12 PM] Lair: for starters it's not a sequel to LEGO Rock Raiders [8:46:14 PM] Lair: it's not LEGO There was a question that came to my mind the other day... are other DDI members involved with this? I might be bold in saying that it has seemed a bit odd for a CEO to be doing what some would expect a community relations manager or PR rep to do. Maybe this has already been answered. Admittedly, it has been a bit hard keeping up with this since we are seeing posts about Block Raiders outside of RRU (sans the FB page), and there are a few topics here already.

I am completely baffled as to how you could even take that joke and think it was a serious question
