Is it just me, or is E.E. losing the whole "sandbox" essance.

I swear, when i first started, the game WAS a sandbox game.

Nowadays, it's all about making a popular level to get to the top for plays and ****.

I wonder what happened to the community...

I totally agree! Almoste all wants to make the best maps.

But my crew, CF Crew, just make maps for fun, not to be the best.

Yeah, They all play for "fame" Which is really worthless because its a low populated online game.

The beta only world are for parties, chatting, and possibly making good worlds for popularity.
The regular worlds are usually for a crew for fun or for popularity, or just as a way to show skill, and possibly be the best at the game (therefore being popular.)

It did lose its sandbox essence, but it is still a sandbox game...despite it not really being used as a playing for fun and testing sandbox anymore.

I build to make something that I want not by popular demand [Never used 'popular demand' on a game forum before].
I'm making a MW3 world because I like the consept of it in EE, I'm not building it because there are hard core fans of CoD [I don't have the game] but I want to build a world with crashing subways, big ben on fire and more [that's only part 1 of 4]

I don't build for popularity.

I really have been trying to get out of the box, it's just hard sometimes. It's like I have an idea in my head, but when I go to execute it never comes out just like I want it to.

Then I worry people won't like it, then I scrap the idea all together. But I do agree some people tend to worry too much about popularity. I think that if more level were made for fun, than for popularity then there would be more better levels.

But EE is just a game so I don't try to hard to be popular. I can be famous or infamous on the Internet it doesn't matter to me.

Everybody always wanted to have a popular level. Nothing really changed.

I think we all need to work on originality, Its a sandbox, why not place some blocks and try and create something new. Or experiment in this "sandbox" and who knows what you might discover.

Uhm, EE is a sandbox game, and probably will stay being such.
I liek open and unsaved worlds, the fun things happen there. ;D

Definition for sandbox game:
An open world is a type of video game level design concept where a player can freely roam a virtual world.

Based on previous threads like this, I can assume that EE was better back then? It still is sandbox game, but I don't like levels that are just art (unless it's for a contest). Although the art is usually very good, what's the point? :S

That is what happens to sandbox games.   In fact, that's a lot of the appeal for games like this.

just make open worlds. people still do. people still play them. it is fine.
I do think the noobs are destroying the communty, though. Make original minis and open worlds and EE is still fun.

Well, there's one problem.

The second you start playing E.E., you're part of the entire community, regardless.

That's our problem, it being too easy to get in our community.

If we were to tighten up our s*** and take a stand, it'd be a war, but at least... We wouldn't have a bunch of newbies running rampant on the forums.

This is a MULTIPLAYER LEVEL EDITOR.
Not a sandbox game.. Well I guess you can call it one, but when it legitly isn't.
Atleast it is and never was applied to be a sandbox game.

To me, it's all about making levels and having fun. Not having your level popular and getting to the top for lots of plays.

@Stubby: It was originally a sandbox with lots of open worlds.

@Little Owl: It's your level, you can do whatever you like.

perhaps a new update is in order to maintain the original concept of the game.
