Well this is quite sad.
Terry was one of the things making S&box .. S&box.
Without it . I think this is just another sandbox user generated content platform..
Like 'Core' . Or something like that.
I mean its your game, you can decide what you do, but there is a better option.
Just making realistic and normal models for players and games can easily change them if they wanted.
Genuinely very happy about the switch to human models, the dedicated server stuff, the terrain tools and, well, basically everything else in this update.
Very relieved about the direction in which everything is going.
Really exciting stuff this update! Finally being able to try S&box myself has also been a neat experience. I warmed up to the sausage models but I think trashing them is the right move, they're creative but they would never appeal to a mass market. For a lot of people, the player looking goofy is reason enough not to play. Also, the model makes a lot of shooter games awkward since the head is massive. Having a sniper or deagle in TTT meant you can basically one-shot everyone easily.
I use Unity at work on projects and with all the uncertainty about Unity's future I've definitely been keeping an eye on s&box. Hearing there are plans for exporting standalone projects is perfect timing! This potentially opens the door for us to use s&box if we feel the need to shift from Unity so I definitely will be keeping an eye on what you guys are doing.
Lots of great stuff already including usage of modern .NET runtime (Unity won't have that for a year or two IIRC) and conforming more closely with modern .NET standards (example: using properties instead of public fields).
I actually liked Terry but Im well aware that Im in a minority...I guess people dont like how similar to a minion his head is but I dont think thats much of an issue.
don't cave into the little kids aren't going to give a single shit about this game. I get the terry model looks ugly but genuinely quite stylized and I feel like fits this game. The people bashing right now legit dumb ass kids who watched there fav tuber call this garry's mod 2.
I'm sad that Terry is about to be removed from S&box. I think most of the people who don't like him, are the people that still haven't got into their head that S&box is not GMod but on Source2 but it's own project.
