BlockWars

Postby SIMOX » Sun May 20, 2012 3:42 pm

==============================[ BlockWars ]===============================

Game is currently in closed beta.
Official website
===================================================================================

GO HERE if you want to sign up for beta testing.


It looks like Ace of Spades and Team Fortress mashed into one game. Except world is build from smaller blocks.

How to play: BlockWars is a multiplayer first-person shooter set in a world entirely created out of blocks (think Team Fortress 2 + Minecraft.) The entire world is fully destructible - you can utilize the large array of weapons at your disposal to destroy the world. BlockWars is played in a capture the flag format - walk over the enemy flag to pick it up, and bring it back to your flag room to capture it. The first team to capture the enemy flag 3 times will win the game. After each round, the world is reset.

System requirements are unknown.

I'm not a huge expert when it comes to TF2, but that Engineer looks a lot like that "Heavy" guy from TF2.

I'm currently downloading it, I hope I can run it.

Well, just tried running it.

Doesn't work, it comes to the "Loading...." part, it loads for a few seconds and then just fades into a completely black screen.

When I open Task Manager, it says that it's not responding, and the name of the task is "Block Wars FPS 0".

Have you tried running it through "BlockWarsClient.jar" in bin_client folder?

Yeah, that works, I joined the Block Wars New York server, it's currently downloading game info.

I'll leave it running for around 10 minutes and see if it's done downloading.

EDIT: Well, it didn't join the server after 10 minutes, so I clicked cancel and changed my resolution from 1440x900 to 800x600 to see if I can get a higher FPS rate (I was getting 7 FPS while connecting to the server).

I then tried joining a server and the game crashed.

It's very CPU intensive, sadly. >.>

So if that game is MC+TF2
Will AoS be MC+Battlefield?

Anyways, why are the character models of higher detail than the map itself?

It looks like a game that can't run on my PC.

I'll pass.
To a Physicist, white and black is the presence and absence of color.
To a Fine Artist, white and black are just shades and tints of color.
To a Painter, any paint that you could get into a can is a color.
THIS color, on the other hand, is #b4d455.

Heh, the TF2 influences here look pretty shameless.
Could be fun though, I might as well sign up for the beta.
