Lol I find old school wiring way more impressive, everything is all apply force and meh now. No one builds the contraptions of old; where are the epic forts, the variety, and original ideas? Todays trial and error consists of a bunch of dude sitting in a server in e2 menus. When I join the wireBuild server I don't see any building going on just a few e2 chips on the ground and a SMALL contraption here or there. Occasionally interrupted by some one spawning something from the Adv. dupe menu that they usually didn't make. I'd go so far as to call it a Coding server rather than Build
I believe e2 to be absolutely incredible, powerful and capable of doing things impossible with regular gates yet I can't help but miss coming onto the server and being impressed by what people came up with. Take for instance building planes (rather anything that flys really) which more than any other contraptions I think were in the end hurt the most by e2 (Fin tool helped a bit too). Where before people would look on in amazement as your plane flew and your fingers thrashed about firing thruster after thruster, planes now are guided by your mouse and pushed with apply force by an e2 code you can copy pasta.
Most building in gmod has such a learning curve and tools are so complicated that it drives people away. Hell I was more or less gone for a year and its a bit much I could only imagine what its like to buy the game and try to learn it all. RND's Build server used to be the best around: active, friendly, helpful, CREATIVE...
Maybe I'm just an Oldfag rambling on to the young folks about how dumb the internet is gunna be but I can't help feeling that the build server that started it all is an empty shell of its former glory.
:nomnom: K i'm done ranting now
