#Whats the obsession over old bean?
523 messages · Page 1 of 1 (latest)
People have a bias about old bean
"Bring back old bean"
I only liked how the hands weren’t in the way that’s why I never mention it
I don’t get the hate on new bean lol
the main thing i feel like is about the face settings theyve changed a lot and ruined a lot of peoples outfits
The circle face is really the only one that's different, and you can recreate the old one by using the sliders
Cause they wont accept it's never coming back
Like okay maybe old bean is nostalgic but BRO there's no need to spam "why did they remove old bean" like why they doing it??? They have to accept it's gone.
The eye sliders are different
like
i tried to recreate one of my own faces from old bean
it didnt work because of the eyes
some ppl can't adapt to change smh

take this for example
smh
"nostalgia" bias or bait
influenced by people, and given something to give a damn about
bump
Genuinely, like don’t get me wrong dude Old Bean was cool, but Upgraded Bean was kinda necessary if we wanted the game to actually progress faster
Old Bean was a pointless weight on this game’s shoulders
bump but it works
If you want a real answer, it's honestly because new bean body is flawed and people are mad that Rec Room doesn't really care. Classic Bean body did have its flaws which were fixed by new bean, but in place we got an ever more buggy avatar type. This was fine until Rec Room removed Classic bean and then barely fixed the issues introduced besides some very surface level ones.
It’s not really buggy gameplay-wise now… at least from my experience it’s been perfectly fine there, it’s mostly unpolished animations for me which isn’t really as bad as breaking CV2 imo
bro i really need the old bean it was so cool and i didnt look bad until they took it away
and i spent most the times on rr when the og bean was here now the game is dying cz og bean is gone and Everyone ik stopped playing
The old one just feels needed to most older players. It’s kind of a symbol of the entire artistic drive of the game—and in all fairness, there was no reason to replace it.
And many—including myself—feel that RR has no business making the bean look more humanoid.
Why change it in the first place?
optimization
Elaborate.
the old bean was a unoptimized piece of trash, the sole purpose of making new bean was to optimize the bean
I never had any issues with the old one while playing. The game feels practically the same if you don’t include any of the other 500,000,000 bugs.
or maybe you didn't know any of the game breaking bugs
Such as?
old bean itself
Yeah, you said it bugged the game.
How?
Not once in my years of playing did I see any issues regarding the body.
that is something I couldn't answer myself, all I know is that it was buggy, some people would know why but I dont, I know it was really glitchy
You can’t make your height tall in the new bean it does this nasty animation where your hands go up but your body stays
Not exactly a bug but old bean absolutely sucked to make cosmetics for
This is a good change in my eyes, not really any point in having an impossibly tall avatar imo
Well everyone had gotten used to old bean and new bean didn't offer enough of an alternative too make the switch worth it. All it really did (for me) was break a bunch of my old outfits that if I override the save means I lose a nostalgic photo. Not only that but when they finalised the switch, every holotar broke and became unfixable. (Just go to ^IsleOfTheLostSkulls and you'll see what I mean)
Also. All the 'optimisation' mumbo jumbo to me seams like it's a lie. Everytime the game is changed to optimise something it either creates a game breaking glitch or just causes more lag than there was before (if you want an example, open your watch and scroll through the menu's. You will see what I mean)
Because Old Bean didn't have a skeleton, you could only make custom clothing. Which was limiting for creators. Removing Old Bean was the right decision, Classic Bean was a weight on the game's shoulders they should've gotten rid of when new bean was introduced to be honest.
bean.
finally someone gets it
Classic bean was also unoptimized since the whole model would be present when covered, same thing with hands except that the base hand and the point hand are two separate models, meaning it was only more resources to even render that hand, some people just don't know how to move on I guess
also please don't steal my Mii because I like my Mii so it would be appreciated if it wasn't stolen
everyone weared classic bean because its not so cartoony now everyone just looks like little kids
it would break circuits at times from what i heard, which now that i think about it, circuits have broken a bit less since the removal of classic bean so... maybe they were right
you're very silly if you dont think rec room was always cartoony to begin with
because according to you, a floating head, torso and a pair of floating hands is not as cartoony as a floating head, torso and a pair of floating hands
then dont height glitch
easy fix
Old bean lowkey better
Old bean built different new bean is a ss
I can make a whole 15 minute video to prove classic bean was better if I wanted to
People are so blind
Just look and see dumb a sses
So much people left RR because classic bean removal that is to show upgraded bean is a ss
Yes, it was built different because it was old code and was a burden on the game shoulders. It was removed, so eh. Whatever. You either live with the changes or leave. Rec Room isn't going to play janitor for people who can't take a body type being upgraded.
Upgraded? Nah downgraded
Fba lookin a ss
Face was different eye positions different face shape different no height glitching hands different I can list a million things
That's literally the point. It's FBA but the limbs removed to make both work the same way.
Fba got the same treatment💀 as upgraded💀
Most people say "My face doesn't work anymore!" when you could just... make a new avatar. That's what I did. Even then, my Classic Avatar looks fine.

Even if you change face positions it still looks bad because the shape of the face
...then change up the avatar. There's sliders for everything.
And nah barely any people make different outfits they keep em
Sliders I tried for 4 hours and it didn’t look good because it’s not the same
Classic bean was built different
New bean always gonna be ass
People loved classic bean so much they found out how to get it back and since they patched it barely anyone plays anymore this game is dead
bro gave up because you know im right💀
Then make a new avatar. :/
It's not that bad.
Correction: they did an exploit which the developers patched out.
its never gonna be the same rr is dead
Then leave.
Simple.
If that's your attitude then nobody wants to hear it, tbh.
We don't even know the player count numbers. The game isn't dead.
I played with it for 3 years, it really wasn't.
🤓 i played for 5 years
2021?
🤓
I disagree. It was old code and it's gone now. Big whoop. It's like PSVR, the code was ten years old man. It wasn't going to last forever.
Bro I played on PSVR, that even I can admit through nostalgia was janky.
dyno hates me
They're removing the old things. Old doesn't always mean good until it's with rose tinted glasses.
old is gold
Not when it's Fool's Gold.
say what you wanna say but in my opinion everyone liked classic bean alot more you would go in rec centers and see people only wearing classic bean
see*
Classic bean is better end of discussion im out gng
I’m not sure what you’re on about, it took me about 20 seconds to fix the changes to the face on my avatar
Then where’s classic bean at if it’s better
Oh right
It got removed
AHAHAHAHAHHAHA
RR so ass
"no height glitching" aww boo hoo :(
You like hating on things don't you?
he left lmfao
this proves my point in other ways also
rr skids like old bean because of glitches
and they are willing to defend it in any way possible
smh
It's sad.
Glad he's gone, good riddance
Also just noticed their name is now "Very limited, can't text".
makes sense why
Wait why does it make sense? 
hmmm🤔
I would think hes underage
a toxic 12 year old who isnt supposed to be on dc
Dude joined the server yesterday, probably.
Now it's "check bio".
This is weird.
im willing to bet he is either in the roblox server, fortnite server, or clash of clans server
lets take a look
i wanna see the bio
I think he blocked me lol, because it shows he's still on the server but not the mutuals
Alright, bye!
I just dislike it because they were too lazy to make a new thing so they just edited the full body costume
that's literally my only problem with it
You cant move too high in the ask or into the ground because if the new avatars, but that makes the game more fair though. The funny part is that Rec Roon doubled the hitboxes (there's the hitbox that constantly follows your head, probably from the Classic bean, but then there's the hitbox on the newer bean and FBA avatars) so you can both hit their avatar from the ground and from the sky.
I don’t see an issue
Me neither, but I do feel that they should remove some hitboxes
bump:3
are u a commnunist
bump
some kid came into the rrdc and was spamming old bean is better
@clever summit explain to us why
i love my fan
thanks for making a whole chat jst for me bubs
u shoulda named it my fathers chat
@eternal iris
n stop getting mad bc i called u a femboy
if old bean was so bad why most content creators quit after they toke it out
why did the player rate drop hy thousands
there player rate is only good bc they have lil ass kids playing there agme
game
u could ask multiple people who played the game since 2016
would say old bean was 100% better
Holy yap
Oh wow I wonder why! maybe its because they grew up on old bean more? yeah that's called nostalgia dawg, people only like old bean because they used it more.
Trust me dude I hated new bean when they first announced it, but you just have to let it grow on you and actually realize that new bean isn't really that bad (except for the new faces I actually agree they look pretty bad)
I meant to reply to this
I'd say if they removed it from the files entirely, it wasn't better than new bean.
They not only removed the old bean, but EVERY holotar that used it has been destroyed or altered. This game has disappointed me several times but that’s just pathetic
Nothing lasts forever.
The game has to change, both gameplay wise and backend wise.
It's unfortunate but it happens.
They said when it was removed they'll be looking into Holotar fixes, so come after their holiday break, maybe they'll look into issues with them.
this was made BEFORE you btw
ive never seen one make so many spelling mistakes
god damn
This is wrong because no one who actually started in 2016 has any connection to Rec Room anymore. Most if not all people with 2016 accounts nowadays are larps
stfu cornball
il
calm the hell down
ik
i get mad at random things
and all I said was stfu cornball
not anything else
you can get timed out for that pretty sure
yes
one time i said the ess why bee aye you and got timed out but the person who said it right above me didnt 🎉
val told me its very easy to get perm muted
bump
why are you even bumping
Fuel the fire of an argument that is just going in circles✌️
With that logic, weeklies were terrible as they disappeared from the face of the game
the way the body bends with new body is genuinely weird, everything else about new bean body is good, i just hope they fix holotars too
new beans better anyway
agreed
I think new bean is better automatically because better performance and the bridge for UGC that I know at least half the population uses
Guys who wants old bean
People blinded with nostalgia
Old bean sucked
Well old rec room was js overall better.
I disagree personally
How so
Old rec room is what it is now, just with way more options and stuff to do
Yea but they js made the game worse
js?
How does bro not know
I dont follow Tiktok lingo
Not Necessarily tiktok but alrigjt
Has to be. Ive never seen it once used anywhere else
The games as good as its ever been. Id much rather a world where we have what we do now as opposed to not having it
“As good as it’s ever been” ☠️
True.
i agree but old bean is just repetitive and some people cant settle for change
Notice the little skull and crossbones?
Yeah
It doesn't present your point
Old bean was hella bad
Present is the best ever
That means your statement was utterly ridiculous
Believe? What’s there to believe? I had a friend list of 800 people
Only 30 remain
Some people never come back to their old games
I feel it doesnt correlate with the subject at hand though
It does. You claim the game’s at its best, so explain why it feels like a ghost town?
Don’t point fingers at me, I’m simply saying this game is far from ‘at it’s best’
But its the old game but more features
I dont see how what is didnt have in the past is the drawn line
We quite literally have the old game with more stuff now.
And with that comes
Content which is practically pay to win
Overpriced items
More toxicity
Shall I keep going?
Cosmetics that are only that, aren't p2w by definition
Overpriced is dependenct on your finances and standards of fashion
Toxicity is inside every Social application
You may.
I said content, not cosmetics
Content, like?
And I mean the events
I havnt spent a single token on any in recent. I can only disagree
Good for you, so you either go afk to grind for xp or you have an unimaginable high amount of consumables
to me new bean looks like classic it’s just the animations
Thats what free to play scenes work off of
Either smash the game, or spend cash. I dont mind the dynamic
At this rate, it should just be put out of it’s misery
But its what they also do to stay afloat
What? Make you spend 300 tokens on a goddamn lantern?
You say that like its expensive.
If I had a gun to my head, sure. But again, cosmetics in every sense of the word is purely optional
In terms of the VC AI stuff, rigged.
What about the use of AI overall?
People say they want the AI bubble to pop as it's ruining what humanity built, but that's for another topic
I mean inside of rec room
Roomie is.. Ech
You like games that rely on zeros and ones to make content?
Technically binary is what makes any tech run
You pinhead, that’s what zeros and ones are
I feel AI should only assist, not replace
I’d bring up another incident about rec room but it’s a little sensitive
I wonder what
The layoffs..?
They had to. Otherwise this entire game would have to die
So, stuck between a rock and a hard place. Still ‘at its best’ to you?
Because what?
Of the layoffs
It had to happen
You have to think of the broader picture. They never wanted to, but to keep afloat, they had to swing
You mean to tell me they had to have less people work on the game to keep it active?
Indeed.
they couldn't afford that much employees
And just how does that make any sense?
It would be rude for either of us to assume reasons, we aren't a big company. But I feel they were hurt upon laying off so much
Yeah, but they weren’t hurt when it came to removing things people loved, weren’t they
Loved things in a company sometimes need to be let go so not everyone suffers the fall
And how would everyone have suffered if they kept PSVR?
Im sure their numbers told them little to noone used decade old hardware anymore. I mean, hell, they can still play the game, just without vr
It does not matter how old it is. It still functioned and was way better than mobile and switch could ever dream of
Debateable, but less and less people use PSVR nowadays compared to better, more affordable options
Debatable? What is debatable here?
If PSVR is a worthwhile device to keep alive
In that case, they should just get rid of mobile and switch. It will be a cold day in hell before someone says they love those versions
Regardless of your opinions on that, Mobile and switch are regrettably more popular than 10+ year old hardware
Rec room only want the numbers
I get it.
$ go up
Players go down
I disagree
Everything that ever cost anything was only ever cosmetic and above all else, optional
Think about it. If there’s less devices to play on, there’s less players
Not everyone owns a games room like you or I
PSVR was clearly used by little to none in recent years
And do people still use a ps3? Very little but the store is still active
I dont feel they are relatable
Its great it has a few players, but again, not sustainable
Then why’s the store still active?
Ask Sony.
Ah yes, let me just ring Sony and ask them why the store’s still active
ring ring
Hello?
I mean, where else will you find an answer?
Well you appear to be the expert…
No
But such hardware is deprecated for a reason
Sustainability
Clearly Rec rooms and Sonys servers dont align, so its pointless to ask
But the ps4 is still playable?
That's still considered modern and the power playable
But PSVR (something younger) isn’t?
Thats considered a much lesser platform nowadays
Also PSVR cant be considered younger if it came after the platform its on
Why not?
It was introduced 3 years after release. Is that not younger or is my brain in backwards?
I stand corrected.
But still younger means nothing
Gaming my its standards will always outweight VR
And as stats show, noone cares, least PSVR
Younger does mean something
Population doesnt
Wait no, so does said population
No use supplying it where noone's at
Well they better get rid of mobile then
Mobile is still helpful to a lot of players, especially older players. And I mean come on there’s probably so many children spending money on their mom’s phone or iPad
Also new phones come out every year?
Yes let the children who are WAY too young to play on to the game, but desert those who actually play it
I still use mobile daily, having to get my vr on just to check my notifications or something is annoying
Do you play it fully?
Yes! Usually in the mornings when I don’t wanna get on my headset
May God have mercy on your suffering soul
Dang, my bad I don’t wanna put an entire VR headset on and open rec room just to check my notifications 🤷♂️
I ASKED IF YOU ACTUALLY PLAY ON MOBILE
Not use it to check notifications
Why are you getting mad over me checking my notifications on mobile lol
Because you answered a question without reading it properly
I did read it properly lol
Except you didn’t or you would’ve gave me a proper answer
Who said I had to answer that question in particular? I mean I already did
No you didn’t
I asked if you play mobile for real
Not just for notifications
Yeah I answered that question
You do realize that RecRoom is supposed to be for all ages right? Also if you are so concerned about the kids playing the game, they have junior accounts on screen mode for a reason 😭?
He’s just getting mad at me for no reason lol
Yea I got confused because you answered his question just fine earlier
No he didn’t
He uses it when he doesn't feel like playing on vr sometimes and its easier to check notifications for him on mobile.
Holy rage bait
No bait, good sir
...
Hoo boy here we go
Could you explain to me how a game with terrible lag issues, so many players quitting, half the staff getting fired and one of the most racist communities I've ever seen be "as good as its ever been"?
A few setbacks doesn't mean what we have now is bad
If it was really bad, you would have left yourself
This is 100% ragebait
No, you're just incapable of conversation
Ok bud
A weird flex but okie
Does he actually PLAY the game and not check his notifications? That’s what I asked
yes, he plays on mobile during the mornings 👍
Minecraft has setbacks too, and it’s still a great game
(He doesn’t know every game ever existent has setbacks too lol)
What?
Bro I can read, No need to be like that over an opinion. We're in the Rec Room discord, it's not that serious
Like what?
No vertical slabs, content drops that don’t have enough for larger changes, and splitting the community between 2 versions
Oh please, I’ve wanted the wither storm in the game for years, doesn’t mean I complain about it
This isn’t Fortnite, they don’t purchase a new license every single day for new IPs or content
And?
And it’s still a great game!
Rec room on the other hand isn’t a dumpster fire, it’s a raging inferno
I see you like to argue
You honestly think I like sitting here sending pixels to another carbon based lifeform I will never interact with in the real world?
Are we just gonna gloss over this yall? You can't be saying stuff like that over an opinion
That's straight up being rude for the sake of being rude. Grow up
The design (they tried), the functionality (said they'd fix), the hitboxes (buggy dog poop), the movement/cringe animation (said they'd fix and add more into the game way over a year ago and still haven't), the optimization... kinda doesn't matter. People who assume it's NoStAlGiA are fools, because the only thing that lame excuse applied to is when FBA came out, being a whole different body type from our OG.
And before y'all get mad with your torches and pitchforks, I only answered the boy's question with a brief explanation.
these goofies dont realize change is inevitable smh my head
I got used to the new bean, but I still don't like it. It's ok, to say the least, but not perfect. The problem is it's been neglected of a proper upgrade, and felt just as rushed as the FBA was when they found out players were quitting due to hella bugs from its creation. That's pretty much the only real good excuse they have other than "they've had no issues with old bean," because saying "It's just better" doesn't really help, and just sounds biased.
I've had no problem in any body tbh
I had no issue with the old bean, but I can understand why people would hate the new bean/FBA collectively, despite having similar or different reasons why.
My biggest reason was just the cheap neglect, that's really all it is for me. No point in going back. You can't, even if you wanted to.
“Shaking my head my head”
LMFAO
this shit shit piss me off me off 😎
“P1ss me off me off”
"this shit shit piss me off me off." 🥀
ts shit is fucking dead lmao my ass off
Old bean was peak
no
Yes
“Laugh my ass off my ass off”
explain why
When new beans released the faces changed now I look weird lmao
Not to mention the bendy backs
Ew yes
ts shit pmo the fuck off. imo my personal opinion ts is ass
When it first came out the walking animation for screen players was insane 💀
this shit shit piss me off the fuck off. in my opinion my personal opinion this shit is ass
And THE CRAWLING 💀
🪱
i like the animation
Old bean was peak and it will always be sorryyyyy
“Piss me off the F off”
you hate it because of 2 things?
I didn’t say I hate new bean i just miss the old one
New bean is so much more optimized
lmao see what happens when you protest that old bean is better in #general-off-topic
Yeah no it’s not
It looks stupid
it is when there's not 40 players in one instance
yall should see what happens when you say old bean is better in #general-off-topic, they'll give you valid reasons as to why its worse
I can’t even spend time in my own dorm without crashing
thats a you problem ngl
my dorm loads just fine
even on phone
That’s an off topic channel why would you speak about on topic things
btw hello bro
may be the amount of props in the room
you can speak about rec room there too lmao
Didn’t say you couldn’t
Just wondering the point
you asked why would you speak on topic in off topic
are you stupid
"anything"
No, it’s a problem with whoever makes this game
I didn’t say you couldn’t do it I was wondering what the point of bringing it up would be
In an off topic channel
Is that difficult to understand?
yes guys lets forbid talking about rec room in the general chat in the rrdc
Did I ever say that?? 💀
basically
Yeah no
No
wanting something thats gone wont ever do you good
I said I miss it idc if it comes back or not I’m simply answering the question
Old bean looked better than whatever they’re doing with new bean. Walking animation, the hands, the face, crawling animation, etc.
waiting for the day this game gets shut down
its not that its a bad game but
its gotten so much worse
Even that’s an understatement
I dont hate the new bean I just hate the placement of the Hip holsters, and the fact I’m locked to a specific height and it makes me look stupid as hell when I stand up from sitting down
Beautiful Character in that pfp, my favourites monika def
Off topic definitely guys
thank u
How were they rude? They were saying no game is perfect
Please read the previous messages
I don't know about you. But to me, that message appears to mock me as I had previously stated how Rec Room has many flaws
oh no guys... they added a few polygons... HOW CAN I LIVE WITH THIS CHANGE!
Lol fr
The face is off on new bean on the default “D” mouth, the walking animations looks Weird, and the crouching is too realistic
god forbid a video game be slightly realistic
Me when they add circles into Minecraft
God damn that's a clean gif.
Shadows: Am I a joke to you?
I just wish bean2.0 didnt give us a C shaped spine
How do we look like with a C shaped spine?
Still can't see it
same
That question made no sense but i'll attempt to answer it anyways, step 1: Use Bean2.0 not FBA, Step 2: Enable standing mode, Step 3: Sit on the floor or on your knees irl and look at a mirror in-game, You now have scoliosis. (Classic bean had that good posture | shaped spine)
However I am short irl so I always have a C shaped spine in-game, if ur tall u wont understand😔 (It thinks im crouching or something idk also looking straight down gives u the C spine also generally I dont like the wiggly bean2.0 body just looks weird to me.)
I think you're insane
How
I just tested myself and sitting down looks perfectly fine, looking down or up does too
Not for me my spine looks like >
If your like 4 foot its constant
Just play in seated mode
I do but i dont wanna height glitch so i set it to my real height which is short and it thinks im crouching somereason but classic bean didnt have this problem (Also if you crouch your POV moves lower down than it should be)
Also if you lean your head left to right quickly your body moves weird classic bean looked more normal when doing this🥺
genuinely who above the age of 13 is 4 feet
dwarfism
Dwarfism is an answer
oh fair
I'm older than 14 I'm just short😔 But jr's play rr why dont they matter why should 10 yr old Tim have to suffer with a C shaped spine? (Overly dramatic ik)
genuine midget i was luike 5'9 at 13
Height is overrated
This is racism against short ppl😔
It is called Heightism or its form sizeism
i just prefer not having my body bend. the classic mouth also swoops downward now and its such an eyesore for me, im not gonna go against an unresponsive company for my nostalgia back. old bean was a preference and i feel like optimization shouldve went towards the watch and optimizing ugc lag before nuking a prefence that i held close to me. i want to end this by saying im not a skid, ive been enjoying this game for 7 years now and i think its finally time to move on from this hellhole game.
maybe it wasnt as influential to you as it was too me but i dont think people should argue about this anymore its been a year since new bean released and the games been going down since before that
as i read more and more from this channel i really need these new bean activist to realize that you guys are the ones keeping this game alive, its you guys and kids on mobile suppose to be on juniors.
And $ go up players go down is a very true statement
this goes for any succeeding game
greed is a poisonous seed
before we knew it as soon as they were getting sponsored we got shittier and shittier updates
if language is a harsh thing here i apologize
RR skids actually like old bean because they love larping as an OG❤️
Yeah because we don't get hung up on an unoptimized mess of an avatar system that barely got changed from old to new
just typing shit 😭
True shit tho
Real shit tho.
