It Died off.
Pretty pointless, As much I loved that game it got ruined after lockdown came.
Blast Network isn't needed Anymore.
None Plays it sadly.
Remove Blast Network.
Noooooo... don't remove. it's fun! 0=<
Keeping something doesn't hurt anyone at all, removing something will hurt the few people that liked that certain thing.
You should remember that.
Are you delusional?! I can name MANY people who play Blast Network. And anyway OOO won't remove it because they paid money to remove it and getting rid of it would be a terrible business idea. So ha! And what do you have against it, anyway?
Also, judging by the number of people who have replied against your idea to remove BN, I can say one thing: ABANDON THREAD!
Dunno about the US servers.
About Mad Bombers thats a guild play.
There are players who like Free for all.
Which no1 Signs in it
Well maybe while we're at it, we should remove the arcade too, I mean it was ruined by the mission system.
/sarcasm
@Irevolutioni: Well, if you don't know about the US server, speak for yourself.
"None Plays it sadly"
I can name over 20 people who still enjoy the game.
why remove a part of the game thats pointless even if no one plays it. its still a stupid Idea to cut out some of the games content
I've managed to accrue about 500 Krogmo Coins playing only Blast Network, without any coin boosters - all within the past month or two. There are often enough people for a reasonably long sitting (2-3 hours), and occasionally enough for 6/8 player matches.
I lag Enough in EU server.
And You want me to play in US Server.
Not worth even trying.
Waste of crowns/time.
I didn't actually say that I wanted you to play BN at all. I pointed out that all of your arguments are faulty and not true.
Remove lrevolutioni.
Blast Network shall never die. You shall not be the judge. Go back to your hole in the ground. <3
Remove creepers.

You're just thinking about it the wrong way, Irevolutioni. Lots of Knights still continue to play Blast Network from time to time today. I've played it, and it was, pardon the pun, a BLASTING good time! Ha ha! Still trying to get the hang of it, though. Anyway, I'm pretty sure it will keep going for a very, very, very long time, and if new maps are to be on the way, which will be very soon, we'll have much more fun than we had before.
instead of removing blast network, there's this thing called NOT PLAYING IT.
if u don't like it, that's fine. we don't care.
there's still some people that play BN...
I made a thread about people's times.
In my nightime/us sever's daytime, it's live.
One time a month ago, I got a full pary battle.
1 Player dont play Blast Network.
Assumes that if he dont plays it noone plays it.
Demands removal of it.
Seems legit.
This.
And I still play BN from time to time, I ain't that good at getting kills but I usually can survive, EVEN with the amount of lag I get from the US servers, I'd probably do better in the EU but meh, most of my guildies play on the US server so I do too.

There still are player using it, and even if there weren't any, it wouldn't be any harm if it just remained, even unused, right?
There are plenty NPC's nobody talks to more than once but it's no reason to delete them.
"lul letz remov content cuz i dont pley it hahahah btw lets remov wild blaed cuz nobody use it loooolzzzzzz"
OP sum-up.
Thanks for the TL;DR! :D
In any case, instead of removing Blast Network, they should add content to Blast Network, and then do something with it that is unique to that play-mode. For example: we currently have bombheads, we could make these exclusive rewards from Blast Network, and give Lockdown another type of exclusive reward, or if you're concerned about those who already have their share of bombheads, vice-versa. I think the optional vanity items were a great idea, and they could create more of it.
Suppose bombheads remain as a possible reward in both Lockdown and Blast Network, they could add something like, say, armour to match these bombheads, and possibly new helmet costumes along with that which could appeal to gunslingers or swordsmen as well, and make them exclusive rewards for one of each mode. Something becomes an exclusive Lockdown reward, and something becomes an exclusive Blast Network reward. With that, dedicated collectors would have something to strive for, even in Blast Network. You could also integrate an additional shop-list with Sullivan that require Blast Coins and Flag Coins, acquired from their respective PvP-modes - Blast Coins from Blast Network, and Flag Coins from Lockdown - both of which can be used to buy a new array of special equipment and/or vanity items to show off your hard work with. So much can be done to promote PvP in both modes, and that is what should be done to give Blast Network more players.
This guy has a good suggestion. I hope somebody has already put it in the suggestion forum!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I don't go there so me no-know /shrug
~The Mighty Cheese Knight; WeeGee
Leave it as it is. Or, better, move it to the graveyard.
Well, if you don't play it, don't just apply for its removal on only those grounds.
Really?
Because you don't play it, we should remove it?
So.... what else don't you play?
Maybe we should remove all of that.
Oh, and if you ever decide to quit Spiral Knights, maybe they should just remove the whole game?
There are still people that play BN, and even if there weren't people that played BN, why remove it when others might play it later?
It's already made, there is ABSOLUTELY NO REASON TO REMOVE IT.
Also, +1 to Shidara.
I would like exclusive rewards for LD and BN.
I like blast network ALOT more than lockdown. How else are people supposed to win against gran fausts and divine avengers? Blast network is fun you noob. >_>
~Tagtag
Does it get in your way? Why does its presence bother you? And what do you think the people who play it would say? Did you think of them? Will this list of questions ever end?
This opinion of yours surprises me. Even if no one plays it does not validate its removal.
Anyways, if your skills haven't decayed much, you can still beat most US BN players. I would like some more players here.
Obviously your playing at the wrong times. Either way removing it, just plain idiotic.
I do understand where you are coming from but not everyone plays lockdown. I know a couple of people that have a hard time keeping up with spammers. Some people i know just do it for krogmo coins. Lockdown is pretty hard to enjoy if as soon as you step out your terriory, you get poked. Blast Network is a good way to enjoy bombing and get krogmo coins.
Do you really want to keep this thread in the spotlights of the first page? The more we post, the longer it stays. If we're done fooling around and agree that this suggestion is no-good, then I suggest we all cease posting.
Come now Irev, you used to be one of the best at Blast Network before Lockdown came out :o
But nawh don't remove it OOO, it's much, much better than lockdown.
Nonono, please, dont remove Blast Network!
If you remove BN, a certain Vtmoon will come looking for you
OP sounds like a Dusker/Skolver Clone who tried to Play Blast Network, but got Owned, went back to Lockdown, Complained about BN every Match, someone told them to Shut Up & Try again, Went to give BN another Shot, got Pwned Horribly, went to the Forums & Made this.
Yep.
I've seen those occasional Skolvers who mostly do LD, try a thing of BN, get pwned, rage-quit, and go back to LD.
It's quite funny.
IMO, BN is way better than LD. I don't play LD and don't intend to anytime soon, because it's just gear intensive, your effectiveness in a game is dependent on what you're carrying. With BN, you can just go in and play regardless of your equips, and you're on an even level with everyone else. I may be a vog clone, but I'll take BN over LD any day.
But while we're throwing suggestions around, may I ask for a wider camera view, I hate running into the blast radius of offscreen bombs :(
"But while we're throwing suggestions around, may I ask for a wider camera view, I hate running into the blast radius of offscreen bombs :("
But that's the whole point of BN. To catch your Enemies off by Surprise & to Trap them.
OP got on the top rankings for BN a few times. He's one of the few people I had trouble with. Really, what's the point of unwarranted personal attacks...
Well, mister, tons of ppl still play it.
There is a guild DEDICATED to it called Mad Bombers.
And there are still those pros out there who do really good.
Ive seen pros do like 39 kills and no deaths..
Hows that for good?
