well depenends on how you look at it. the map has changed a lot over time, but back when i first started playing, the map used to highly resemble the style seen in the books (especially since it had old broken giant robots taken directly from the artbook) @@ktunedcrx
Man I miss the times when the map was literally just a flat desert and some weird stone building in the middle, back when the bike was the only way of transportation, good times man.
you can still juice some fun out of the game. I got big into the game in the middle of the summer, just doing a bunch of random stuff and made a couple of friends.
I never understood why the developer has never thought of adding simple tasks like he can spawn some in game npcs and those npcs when you press them will give you some tasks for money,guns,or rare items depends on the npc.
The game currently now is only getting qhout 80 -150 Daily players now. Due to the lack of players Cheaters seems to lose interest in even trying to cheat their way in. Although a few toxic players still remain in Electric State it really just feels like a ghost town now. The only people left are the original players that still wishes the game to live on. But in a couple of months maybe a year or so a complete downfall is inevitable. It was really fun at first and even still is to this very day but all good things must come to an end eventually.
This game won't survive, the devs legit said they are gonna leave it to die. As a OG player, i started in 2019 and had great memories. I only come back to this game occasionally to have some good time with nostalgia

I miss when the game had personality, when there were all the robots around, the cool skyboxes, the cool art on the billboards and when it wasn't officially discontinued for a game REDD is never making. I miss 0.7
I still enjoy the game sometimes, but the amount of changes they made to the game made me play less because it got more and more boring. A good example was changing how perm items work, we only had to buy them from the blueprints and then suddenly they make us use for example a recaller to buy a nevermore dagger. Then they removed having to get materials to make cola or other items which sure it might make it less of a hassle to craft things but I personally enjoyed driving to get grapes.
I like this video, unlike many others who straight up go ultra-biased against the game, this one highlights both upsides and downsides equally. Wanted to clarify several things which have been the case or which have changed since this video was made: - The in-game moderation has actually always been a thing in the game throughout the years, however there has always only been 1 moderator responsible for it officially hence despite doing his best it simply wasn't possible to keep up on that all while also mixing it with irl stuff. Now into the changes, there has recently been an official moderation overhaul (both discord and in-game) which significantly improved the overall situation in the game when it comes to exploiters problem. P.s.: Sadly, exploiters will always be a problem in any game rather in or outside Roblox and there's no really anticheat that can stay unupdated yet not bypassed, and the way this game built (it's codebase is really rusty and outdated) simply wouldn't allow for implementation of certain measures without tampering the gameplay much. - Regarding the updates, the game is still kind of getting updated (at least exploit patches do come out), but is currently not a priority at all due to REDD actively working on other, newer games with much more flexibility and perfectly implemented codebase (especially compared to what ES' is rn which is one of the reasons it's extremely hard and painful for them to bring some big changes to current ES) You should also wait for their new game, DarkRP 2.0 to come out (though don't expect it to be ES-like as it's not a revamp but a whole new different DarkRP game) - Fortnite thing is an april fools joke as you've been told already I also love ES & have been actively playing it for years so I really wish for it to be maintained and updated, wish for it to rise again
if im being honest i really dont think es is coming back edd_e has stated that the code is too old to work with and adding new things is a pain for him since he wants to work on other projects too and the ‘recent’ updates are just reused old crates sure the sakura crate was nice with the props but im willing to bet he just took the props from somewhere else since the wolf model was. I feel the game had lots of potential but i think in a year or two the game will probably kick the bucket unless we get an actual good update. Not to mention the game is literally pay to play since most of the fun gamepasses like detective, bmd and mayor are locked behind paywalls. I think the game could make a comeback if they make it more noob friendly and add more things to do in the game apart from building and dropship event.
I sotpped playing for a few months in either 2021 or 2020 when i rejoined the game there was crafting a new map layout, my money reset a long with my items so i just kinda didn't feel like regrinding and learning all the complicated features and just quit
the alpha wipe demotivated a lot of players and they didn't keep the new features rolling in after the release of beta. They tried changing some of the crafting features in like march 2023 and had to rever them lol
unfortunately i didn't put a whole lot of time into this video. If i could remake it I would but i lost the original file. Thank you for the correction.
Another really big problem with this game is the admin abuse, a lot of people are banned simply for just killing mods/admins including me, I got banned about a year back just for killing a admin.
So i got a copt of es classic and i was digging through the files and ive came across loads of removed content and loadable events like the capital dropship event and also secret weapons along with items the game had a map but i added es themed bunkers and extra stuff like buildings events quests etc.
Electric State's lack of moderation has lead to a some players including me, being targets of racism on multiple occasions. It once got to the point where I found a group of exploiters roleplaying as the KKK, who proceeded to trap me and my friends inside jails while they spammed racial slurs. This extends to some of the different clans I've been a part of.
as much as i'd love to try and argue against it, this comment is just too true edit: maybe an update might save the game but that's unlikely at this point
they basically quietly abandoned ES for some mech combat game and a tycoon. If you wanna play a game like old ES play posterity isles until REDD can fix their game.

@@Doom_inicDon't feel bad, seeing that update made me quit ES because I legit thought that there wouldn't be a point if they were moving to FN
noone realise its based on the art series called Electric state..?
I knew that but i mean mabye they didnt
The game only takes the name the in-game features are nothing like the book lol

weapons are inspired by fallout, buildings and vehicles are inspired by the electric state, and gameplay is based on gmod darkrp
Man I miss the times when the map was literally just a flat desert and some weird stone building in the middle, back when the bike was the only way of transportation, good times man.
fr, I got really mad when they removed the old spawn building
It felt better. It was a wasteland that YOU the player and the rest of the server had to work to civilise.
electric state was really fun in like 2019/20 cause everything felt fresh new and neat items were added but now sadly everything is now really boring

They did for a time, with the Capitol Airship event
cuz this is a dark rp game not a damn mmporg
i loved the old direction and its a shame they couldnt pursue it, but the game still has wonderful vibes, good memories etc

i deeply resonate with this video, thanks

Nice video, I always love seeing electric state videos unfortunately there aren’t a lot.
Also it is pronounced sa- koo-rah not sa-kura
unfortunately i didn't put a whole lot of time into this video. If i could remake it I would but i lost the original file. Thank you for the correction.
I remember back a few months ago where you had to be careful dropping anything because someone would tp on top of it and grab it 😂😂
Good ol fashioned buying crates based on your role. No tedious crafting.
electric state has fallen..
billions must open crates
I might learn code and buy this game off red and make it way better
please, please, please do, I would be so happy

Another really big problem with this game is the admin abuse, a lot of people are banned simply for just killing mods/admins including me, I got banned about a year back just for killing a admin.
wait actually? that's pretty crazy i didn't know they were abusive. Join their discord and try to appeal.
we need a "however" word count
So i got a copt of es classic and i was digging through the files and ive came across loads of removed content and loadable events like the capital dropship event and also secret weapons along with items the game had a map but i added es themed bunkers and extra stuff like buildings events quests etc.
sad it died it has so much lore
Why is the Electric State is the robloxes TF2?
no, TF2 isn't really dying but ES is.
i think he means that the devs dont care about it just like valve@@Doom_inic
the game was great before the update where they added the vending machines for stores
eh i kinda like the auto vendors, good for selling if ur afk.
