    Yes, they changed the focus. However, I think what we are asking for more than anything is not for them to give up in their big plans but we are hoping they can get explore to work well as a, well-rounded, fun, stable game so that the player base sticks with the game before they progress forward. 

     

    Yeah i am fine with them making an editor platform. But I also want them to work on exploration and add some old features back. 

     

    (EDIT)

    I don't mean to be rude to the devs but just thinking about old times just gets me fed up with the new ylands

    Ylands has evolved from a humble Exploration to something much more. We are

     

    primarily a creative platform. As it says on our Store Page: 
    Explore your creativity with Ylands.
    Build everything and anything you can imagine in Ylands' powerful Editor, then bring your creations alive with the magic of Visual Scripting.
    Upload your creation to the workshop to show it to the world.
    Play any of the player creations, on your own or with your friends.
     

    So you're telling me that you advertised an exploration game (Alpha trailer) and then turned it into a creative platform?? 

    Now I really feel scammed.

    Steam store page. As you can see, they remove the adventure part.

    We (the community) miss Alpha Ylands gameplay. Please consider these suggestions.

     

    1. Add the old music back. Go back and listen to the alpha ylands music track and tell me that it isn't better than the new music.

    2. Make the map bigger. Make a chunk system like minecraft or something so you can have a big map. I miss getting lost in the ocean, not seeing the exact island i need to progress in the game.

    3. ADD FIRST PERSON BACK. What stupid reasoning it is to remove first person because the animation didn't correspond with first person. At least in alpha gameplay i could mine a wall out with in 15 minutes and be able to actually see stuff.

    4. Listen to your community. Don't get me wrong, I loved ylands when it first game out, it was my dream game, and I thought it was amazing. Then 1.7 came out and I remember thinking "Well this is alright but not all that good" and then 1.8+ just completely ruined the game.
    There is no exploration in exploration mode. Instead of making an exploration game you guys made a chinese rip-off of roblox.
    If you did this the smart way of making a game, you would've released the map making and creator features AFTER you released the exploration features.

    5. this "tip" is so important i have to say it again. Make the map bigger!!!!! I shouldn't be able to see the other island from the beginner island!!!

    6. Keep adding more stuff to exploration, and don't make excuses about your updates. You promise stuff every update when people are disappointed with it and then the next update never receives the hype you were hoping it would. I understand this is probably a difficult game to work on and to release updates. But I would rather you release big updates after long times that are filled with content about exploration.

    7. Again. Please please please just listen to your community. Just starting connecting with them more!!

    8. Don't get mad at suggestions like this or else you'll be denying the truth of what you guys have done to your game.

    9. If it pleases you, add back the old faces.

     

    Stay classy

    Good times....Good times... Very sad with the newer updates. Please fix devs. I am the second one in these photos. I just want to have fun like this with my friends. I genuinely love this game, but at this point its not going in the right direction. Please keep your word and fix exploration.

    This is our goal and we are working towards it. We have finalised the Creator Aspect of the game and gonna have a string of competitions to celebrate it and now it is time to double down on Exploration ?

    I really wanna believe that but it feels like you guys say that for every single update. Please keep to your word and do this. Not only add onto exploration but fix it please.

    Add first person back. Make it so we can't see the islands next to us. Just fix the issues before you start updating it. stay classy :(

    But that's because Coyns are cheaper. But if you compare how much you "get back" for 20 EUR (or 23,54 USD) when you buy Coyns or Robux, with Coyns it is 8.47 USD and with Robux it's 6.59 USD. If you extrapolate that to a 1223 USD (which is roughly what 250,000 Coyns cost), with Roblox you get 342 USD while with Ylands you get 375 USD so you're already 33 USD better off ? (+ Creators Club members get a greater cut of Coyns than Roblox Creators ?)

    But regardless of the math (and since it is me counting, it could be horribly wrong), this is the best we can do under the circumstances and we always try to be able to make the conditions better in the future rather than worse. The way it is set up now is manageable and self-sufficient for us. 

    BUT that doesn't mean we won't be supporting our Creators in other ways and growing the community. With the series of competitions we are planning to start off very soon we'll be offering substantial monetary prizes to further reward our ingenious creators and lure in even more talent to make Ylands a vibrant community of Creators and Players and soon reaching 250,000 Coyns will be easy peasy lemon squeezy ?

    We are also planning on making the selling of Blueprints available to Creators in the future, which would secure another source of Coyns income even for those, who are not interested in making whole scripted games, but just want to make a cool ship or a house. And since Exploration will get a total reworking to make it great and fun, blueprints will be in high demand ? So a lot to look forward to ? And if we see the economy isn't working or there are loads of people who aren't able to reach the 250,000 Coyns benchmark even after the influx of players and creators during the competitions, you can be sure we will revisit it, so as many talented people as possible get rewarded ?

    How about you guys not make another roblox and make your own game. Now you may argue that this game has exploration. What exploration? I don't see any exploration anywhere? I take that back. I see it. In fact I see too much. I can see islands that should be farther away. I can explore the whole ylands map in 2 minutes. You guys must look at what your community is saying. One of your most respected players in the community is even trying to tell you guys to listen. And what do you guys do? You make excuses. Please don't make excuses. Please make your own game that has exploration and creator features. But as I have said before, you guys have tried to mix Minecraft, Roblox, and Ark Survival Evolved into one game. Now tell me please. What happens when you mix too many colors? You get brown. At this rate that you guys are making this game, you have made poop. You have mixed too many games and are on the brim of your last few supporters urging you to step it up and listen to your community. I don't know what else to say than to listen to your community. Stay classy and good luck :(

    If only they would just listen to their community. We bought the game for exploration. Not for some Chinese ripoff of Roblox.  There are cool puzzles and dungeons in the trailer. But in the real game?? No where to be found. They keep making excuses that the next update will be better, and they keep hyping their updates up just to release a update that focuses on creator features and map making. I miss old ylands soooo much.

    Finally someone who realizes what their doing to their game, they made poop, literally, they are mixing minecraft, ark, and roblox, and when you mix too many colors together....you get brown....how bout you take out that roblox part? Or atleast decrease how much of that roblox part your putting into it...Listen to your community and maybe your future for the game will be better.

    In the trailer for this game (2017 trailer) they are in a structure and completing what looks like a puzzle, this may be a map, but why not in like desert biomes, add Egyptian ruins that have like puzzles and booby traps? That would be so much fun!

    Also will you add equiping things while on a horse/car?  It would just be convenient.

    These are my only suggestions thanks for reading them! :D
