Re: To all you veterans out there. #GivePeopleBlocks

I think the least extreme solution would be to allow all block packs that aren't obvious exclusives (i.e Diamond) to be available for energy and gems. Perhaps each block pack can be worth somewhere between 500 to 2000 energy, depending on the size.

I have no insight into how block packs will be released into the future, but ideally, if a block pack is released every month, this would allow enough time for people around that month to get it as well as any new smiley releases. For those not around that month, the block pack will still be able to get it for energy, or opt to use paid currency if they deem the pack worth it. If a pack should be deemed to be seasonal, it may be possible to raise the energy price for being out of season, i.e Christmas related blocks in mid-summer, which you could maybe raise to be up to 4000 energy cost.

Additionally, as the block packs increase in number, it is possible that those packs that are old releases and deemed to be pivotal to the standard world building style, they can be released to all players for free.

I believe this system would be ideal, as it would give people a reason to keep coming back and playing the game as they did in EE, without ever having the issues that come with having certain packs locked behind a paywall, as well as preventing new players from feeling overwhelmed by such an extensive backlog of block packs to acquire in the shop, with seasonal items still being available but being more "expensive" by energy cost, which still allows people who have these blocks to actually feel like they own a special pack.

I feel that EE's current system is problematic and extreme, but I feel like the system proposed by the OP is also extreme. I hope my solution here could help solve the issues brought forth by those looking to either proposals.

If you bought blocks with energy what do you need compensation for? The 10 seconds if took to login and spend your energy? The only thing that would need any form of compensation would be blocks bought with paid gems.

Re: To all you veterans out there. #GivePeopleBlocks

So did you think it was a good thing that players who didn't play during Spring 2011 never once had the ability to place grass without paying money?

As fas as i know, we now have more grass options as decoration, this includes Autumn Grass, Winter Grass, Summer Grass, Garden Grass, Swamp Grass, Farm Grass, etc...

So yeah, I think the 2011 Grass should be exclusive to 2011 players.

This does not decrease the creativity range of new players, because even if grass is a basic concept, there are more options.

what if i must use that 2011 grass block

assuming you did not buy it in 2011, then you gotta use some gemzzzz

btw, i'm not supporting exclusives for EE, the game will soon become unplayable so anyway just turn on the creative mode.

My exclusives support is for EEU, where it has much more chances of working

As a previous member of staff i can assure you that it's not that painful at all.

Besides that, like i said, there shouldn't be given any compensation (at least in ee, don't care about eeu) for people who spent their energy/gems on the items. Blocks should become free for everyone

You really don't lose anything. Blocks are essential to the game and for the building community. If blocks are made free, people will make more quality levels. In my opinion, block should've never been behind a paywall.
Other stuff like smileys are cosmetics, they aren't essential to the game. They can stay behind the paywall.

Besides that, and this is purely my opinion, eeu should've been a @new@ game and not associated and compensated with items you bought in ee. I played the game since 2010 and i would've been completely happy if all players from ee coming to eeu were just to get something like a simple "veteran" smiley, that's it

Re: To all you veterans out there. #GivePeopleBlocks

well i dont disagree with this but having free blocks is just a temporary motivation to make worlds
i have most of the blocks but i dont have any motivations to build anything

Re: To all you veterans out there. #GivePeopleBlocks

As gosha stated (assuming that'swhat he meant by special items), this won't include classical items. There are players who have paid money for these classical items, so it does make sense
Of course there are players who paid money (or gems) on regular items but these are items you can get for free using energy anyway, so I see no reason not to make them free, especially since EEO is supposedly so close. Might as well let players create some nice worlds before EE shuts down and so other players can download.

P.S. I too have most if not all shop items.

Definitely give people classic items. The game is going to die in like 6 months so just give everyone everything and squeeze out the last bit of enjoyment before EEU.

eh the lack of motivation to make worlds is directly attributable to a lack of players to play said worlds rather than having all blocks

Re: To all you veterans out there. #GivePeopleBlocks

Peace what
EEU can still make money, through patreon

EE is near the end, why can’t we party with free blocks
I don’t like it when games end with a boring ending, it’s a shame.

That would be bad if somebody wins and somebody loses

But if we give away blocks to everyone, everyone wins
