Ace of Spades - Minecraft with less mining and crafting, but more guns - Games

[B][IMG]http://img689.imageshack.us/img689/6455/aceofspadesdoodle.png[/IMG] What the fuck is Ace of Spades and why should I care?[/B] Ace of Spades is a Voxel powered Team-based CTF shooter with fully destructable/constructable procedurally generated terrain.That should sound fucking awesome enough to get you to play already. However, the voxel-ness of it does make the graphics a bit trippy (especially when looking at anything up close) so you might wanna take that into account if you get motion sick easily. [B]Sounds cool, boss, where do I get it? [/B]Well, the website was up yesterday when I found this gem but the servers seem to be overloaded right now. The master server list (and the download for the game client) is currently on [URL]http://www.ace-spades.com[/URL]. Again, there is supposed to be a real website there (and there was one yesterday) but I guess this game really exploded in popularity and brought the servers down) [B]Alright, I've downloaded all this shit, what do I do? [/B]The first thing you're going to want to do is open the config.ini file and [B]change your name! [/B]It's really annoying having about 20 deuces in a server. You can also change your resolution if you want, but this comes with an increased risk of weird graphics glitches. I don't think the game supports widescreen at this point so depending on your drivers your screen will either get streched out into a soupy looking thing or just have black bars on the sides. *NOTE* If you're operating on Windows Vista / 7 it won't let you save the config.ini file to the folder that it's in if you installed the game into program files. You're either going to have to save it to the desktop and paste it back to the Ace of Spades folder or open notepad as an administrator. [B]What next? [/B]From the website posted above, join a server. You [B]can't join a server by running client.exe[/B], you have to join it from the website. After that, you're in the game! [B]ALL IN ONE INFO PICTURE BECAUSE PHOTOBUCKET SUCKS DICK [/B][IMG]http://filesmelt.com/dl/1302726628670.png[/IMG] [B]Misc Notes: [/B]-You can't move your own intel, nor does it ever return to your command point until the enemy captures it. Defend it well! -The game is currently in Beta 0.3. More updates are expected to come out soon, but the game is currently very buggy -To that extent, don't make a post saying "HAI GUYSE I CANNOT CONEKT 2 SURVUR WAT DO." For your information, NO 1 CAN CONEKT 2 SURVUR at this point. Just be patient. -There's a tumblr page with useful info, mods, funny stuff, etc over here : [URL]http://aceofspadesgeneral.tumblr.com/[/URL], as well as a blog with more serious business at [URL="http://aceofspadesdeck.blogspot.com/"]http://www.aceofspadesblog.com/[/URL] -[URL="http://www.upurload.com/file.php?name=3e260575646abac1707cbf17792d726e.exe"]http://www.upurload.com/file.php?nam...17792d726e.exe[/URL] takes you to a neat utility that lets you favourite and join AoS servers. - The (Official?)

Gonna try it out.

Looks cool, I always imagined minecraft with guns and bases and buildings and explosives would be the shit. Will try.

Worth a try. [editline]10th April 2011[/editline] Hmm, Crashing when trying to start.

Lags like hell. Stop answering this post you silly persons, I just entered a far way server that didn't gray world on me back then. :I

-Lol Snip, read quotes derp, graphics do not make a game, obviously didn't for this one-

[QUOTE=CaMpEr_GuRL;29090278]Minecraft looks nicer than this, a Flash game looks nicer than this, the maps look really fucking bright and the colours are dull.[/QUOTE] This looks better than blackshades though, and blackshades is a hell of a fun.

Oh god , It uses Voxlap Insta-download

Barely any servers work.

doesn't let me connect to any server :smith:

This game is sort of what I always wanted minecraft to be able to do.

Maybe Notch is going to "get inspired" of this and adds such a gamemode?

Minecraft: Modern Mining.

[QUOTE=CaMpEr_GuRL;29090278]Minecraft looks nicer than this, a Flash game looks nicer than this, the maps look really fucking bright and the colours are dull.[/QUOTE] You are stupid.

[QUOTE=geogzm;29090376]You are stupid.[/QUOTE] How am i stupid?

[QUOTE=CaMpEr_GuRL;29090278]Minecraft looks nicer than this, a Flash game looks nicer than this, the maps look really fucking bright and the colours are dull.[/QUOTE] i hate people who decide not to play a game solely based on its graphics

[QUOTE=superstepa;29090379]It doesnt launch for me[/QUOTE] Found the problem

[QUOTE=Mattk50;29090388]i hate people who decide not to play a game solely based on its graphics[/QUOTE] Alright, it's laggy and it crashes, happy now that i give a reason you are ok with, sir?

I expected Mötorhead in that video.

Fuck yeah, voxels!

[QUOTE=superstepa;29090395]Found the problem[/QUOTE] Tell me, I might have the same one.

[QUOTE=CaMpEr_GuRL;29090408]Alright, it's laggy and it crashes, happy now that i give a reason you are ok with, sir?[/QUOTE] The lag isn't the games fault it's your PC.

Oh I can't connect to my own server.

[QUOTE=Hellborg 45;29090444]The lag isn't the games fault it's your PC.[/QUOTE] 6 Core Processor, 8 GB of RAM and a GTX 560 Ti, what were you saying?

[QUOTE=CaMpEr_GuRL;29090461]6 Core Processor, 8 GB of RAM and a GTX 560 Ti, what were you saying?[/QUOTE] My computer is running it fine, it was just an assumption, sorry.

Haha thats actually cool as shit.

Game rocks, can't wait for updates. We also need to start modding it.

Looks neat
