RDC 2022 - Day 1/2 - What's been happening?

Introduction


Hi cookie tech community! :wave:

I would like to summarize what’s been happening in regard to the recent RDC and everything that has been happening, I’ve gone ahead and watched a ton of videos and complied all of the features into this quick short summary, let’s get straight into it…

It’s annoying how roblox hasn’t put Day 2 onto the YT channel yet.

What’s happening?


Roblox is working on a movie

This is kind of self-explanatory, however, roblox has stated that they’re working on a movie.

Majority of all users on roblox are 13 or above

That’s crazy to consider, is roblox really a kids game or is it something everyone can enjoy, this may be in relation to why roblox is adding so many features that change the entire roblox mainframe.

Roblox will not have NFTS

Yipeee, roblox has officially confirmed that they read about the space and like it, but they think there is no need to enter the block chain.

More money to creators

Baszucki has stated they’re working to get more money to creators which is something that the platform has been needing, especially such as other platforms, core, offer developers the same concept except with better pay.

Roblox to more devices

Roblox has a deal with Micrososft to have roblox on Xbox, however, roblox states "Quest (The vr headset) is an obvious place to go, PlayStation is an obvious place to go. Growth happens on multiple directions, and there is a lot of room to grow.

R15 is staying

For those R15 fans, Baszucki has also once more confirmed that they have no intention of wiping R15 off the platform.

Free UGC items

Roblox wants to allow UGC creators to sell free items, this means that there will be so much new creativity that players who don’t want to spend money can have.

UGC Limited

We’ve heard that a lot is coming with this, UGC limiteds will be a major step up for trading, however, it could come with a ton of issues, such as UGC creators making items similar to already existing expensive items.

Immersive Advertisements

Now developers should be able to ad immersive advertisements, however, I don’t like the sound of developers adding boards into their games with advertisements to make spare buck, I don’t think it’s worth the quality that will be lost.

The bloxy (innovation) awards are today!

Today is also the innovation awards, also formerly known as the Bloxy awards.
So many talented creators & video stars are nominated for these categories, in which they will be presented in an in - house venue at RDC & streamed online.

Watch here.

RDC22 is already looking marvelous! All these new features are bound to make Roblox a better place and community, and it seems Roblox has a good plan to make that happen.

However, I do have some concerns about all this UGC activity going on;

If there are free UGC items on the Roblox Avatar Shop, does it defeat the purpose of getting limited UGCs? In my opinion, I believe UGC limiteds won’t become too popular unless they are far more diverse than free UGCs, otherwise, what will really be the point?

I’m looking forward to watching the innovation awards! It’s been a while, and I’m interested to see who wins the top spots this year. :trophy:

I thought it was about R6 not R15

Hi, welcome to the forums!

I think you may be right, I’m not entirely sure.

Age Recommendations – Roblox Support

It’s rolled out, if your account is registered below the recommended limit it doesn’t hard stop your from entering, yet.

At the moment there is only 13+ 9+ and all ages ratings:

Opinions?

This will be HORRIBLE for people who set their accounts up wrong

If you have your account set to <13 go to parental controls, and select “Age Guidelines” and select 13+

I’m worried about this. Roblox is constantly pushing users to verify their age to access more, and if this feature is based on the age verification system, that is worrisome to people like me who aren’t comfortable verifying our age on Roblox.

Okay, if a parent setup a child account correctly this should be locked by pin.

Of course, giving these types of credentials away is scary.

To my knowledge you can fix this with id verification.
