Who would use the offline version of Scratch 2.0 the most?

I would. Not because of Internet problems (I have a reliable connection), but I'm used to having a maximized scratch window without browser buttons.  tongue

But I would use the online version too if I can't download scratch.  smile

Re: Who would use the offline version of Scratch 2.0 the most?

I would use the offline version more than online, for the same reason as you and because I'd feel more used to it in general.

Re: Who would use the offline version of Scratch 2.0 the most?

I would use it a lot, for the same reasons as you. In addition, I just find that running an application in a plugin within a browser tends to be much slower than just running a desktop application.

Yeah, I would use the offline version; I'd feel more comfortable creating projects offline than online  smile

I would definitely use the offline version - it would be way more comfortable  tongue

Same.
The downloaded version sounds like it could handle more before it lags.

Me, for sure, there is no doubt, when I don't use it for scripting I use it to play music. It is on 95% of the time I am on.


Your music tastes are bad, therefore your argument is irrelevant.

I'd use the offline version too, not like I'll ever need to do my Scratchy stuff in another computer.  tongue

Re: Who would use the offline version of Scratch 2.0 the most?

Wow, has the Scratch Team seen the results in this topic? It might inspire them to put lots of work into the offline version  tongue

I'm just worried that they're going to neglect the offline version; as Scratch 2.0 will mainly be online, that's what I would expect.

But I'm sure Scratch 2.0 will pwn anyway  big_smile
