Like, there's around what... ~1200 members total? what if it jumps to 12000? 120000? What will happen financially? What will happen with maintenance issues? Other things I havent mentioned?

Tracker Posted March 18, 2011 Share Posted March 18, 2011 What about the "weave" of RRU? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sonic322 Posted March 18, 2011 Share Posted March 18, 2011 LEGO won't make another mining game. And even if they did then it wouldn't be Rock Raiders. Here are the reasons why: It would be Power Miners because it is newer. It would most likely be by Travellers Tales. The game would be harder to mod because it is made by Travellers Tales. A Power Miners forum would not be able to start because these and other reasons such as the difficuly that would have to be put in to make a game that you can mine in and have the look that Travellers Tales makes all their games have. If Travellers Tales didn't make the game and it was able to be modded then a power Miners forum could in fact start and then there would be a huge battle to the death between Cyrem and the Power Miners Admin. The location being a Power Path bridge over a bottomless pit on Planet U with all the creatures of Planet U at the bottom. (Rock Raiders United getting to pick the location because it is the original) Cyrem having a Laser Beam and a shovel for a weapon and the Power Miners Admin having something the Power Miners use as a weapon. Cyrem would most likely win because of his experience. Then the RRU Explorer would fire LZ's Lazer at the Power Miners forum. And that his how it would all play out.

aLPHA Posted March 18, 2011 Share Posted March 18, 2011 What if what if what if, that's all I hear around here. I'd rather hear "what was", that "what if". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cirevam Posted March 19, 2011 Share Posted March 19, 2011 "What if" is looking ahead. "What was" is reminiscent of the past. You can't change the past, but you can change the future. Anyways, I think Sonic is right about a Power Miners game being extremely difficult to mod. However, plenty of modern games have trainers coded for them to unlock things or give infinite resources, so that much could be possible. If that happens, then there's at least some reason to start a forum like this one for Power Miners. But what if someone from RRU makes the first PM trainer? Then there would be a reason for Power Miners to join RRU. This could be advantageous for us as we would be in control of their initial modding supplies and they wouldn't be able to make new discoveries for Rock Raiders as we've done almost everything so far, except for custom promeshes. But we are working on that... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aLPHA Posted March 19, 2011 Share Posted March 19, 2011 Harder to mod? Travelers tails is one of the more moderate games to mod. I cracked their first engine (lego star wars 1), am working on their second (lego star wars 2. I can extract image and sound from it, but all the game and model data is in some bizarre encryption) , and cracked their most recent (lego indiana jones 2. Easiest one I cracked.).

Minifig9292 Posted March 19, 2011 Share Posted March 19, 2011 At least it's a better kind of what if that people in the community can't actually do. "What if they made a HL2 beta mod that <cool thing here>" Ok then, what if you actually got off yer lazy butt and MADE THE THING!? Or better yet, I COULD HELP YOU! What you don't want my help? WELL GO YIFF A FRUIT BASKET YOU IN-GRATEFUL LITTLE PIECE OF- *gets punched in the face* ...I needed that. I'm not yelling at any of you guys, just venting some old rage, I'll do that every once in a while. I mean sure you guys had some in fighting I assume. But you people actually got stuff accomplished. Where I came from, there's two different forums at war with one another, it was the dumbest crap I've ever seen and I'm ashamed I was even involved. Sorry to change the topic, please continue and don't mind my rants. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Addictgamer Posted March 19, 2011 Share Posted March 19, 2011 1. What if LEGO will make another mining related game that will make this place really popular? Like, there's around what... ~1200 members total? what if it jumps to 12000? 120000? 2. What will happen financially? 3. What will happen with maintenance issues? 4. Other things I havent mentioned? I ORDERS ME FEEDSBAKC Answering your questions: 1. 10 % chance I'd leave. 2. Eh...More donations for Cyrem? 3. Not Much? 4. Um...How about stuff relating to the game itself, not just the community.

Baz Posted March 25, 2011 Share Posted March 25, 2011 And what if apples were oranges? Then we'd all be in a bit of a bugger wouldn't we. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cyrem Posted March 25, 2011 Share Posted March 25, 2011 What will happen financially? What will happen with maintenance issues? Other things I havent mentioned? 1. More server power needed meaning: Current price * 20 probably 2. More moderators... a lot more. 3. LEGO will raeg on RRU for taking their fans.

Crystalyzer Posted March 31, 2011 Share Posted March 31, 2011 "What if" is looking ahead. "What was" is reminiscent of the past. You can't change the past, but you can change the future. If you change the future, the people in the further than future will say the people in the past changed the past, so you can change the past if you have a warp like aparature .

Amauros Posted March 31, 2011 Share Posted March 31, 2011 If you change the future, the people in the further than future will say the people in the past changed the past, so you can change the past if you have a warp like aparature . Firstly, the people in the future don't exist to say that people in the past changed the past. Secondly, we'd only say that people in the past made a difference in their world, not that they changed the timeline from what it used to be. Thirdly, there's no guarantee that there will even be people in the future. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well people in the future will exist to say that people in the past made a diference, and that diference could make the future of the future people (who WILL exist) or already made the future of the people in the future. How do i know people in the future will exist? Rock Raiders live in the future, and they are real right? But this disscusion is off topic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
