0.76 Discussion

1 word: Hats

Classical valve advertisement for an opportunity to aperture their way into another game.

Pathetic.

Judging by the falling number of testers of the RC, I'd say this one is a miss.

I can't even get onto any of the servers, just keeps showing the .75 servers, and if I try to get in them, it says version conflict.

You have to use a .76 server. I've seen 2: Aloha and Shams.

Which reminds me, they need to add a search feature. Right now I use CTRL F in firefox to find the server I want. This would be nice in the loader as well.

I think the rifle's rate of fire needs to be switched back to before, but other than that, I think it's alright now. The weapons feel much more balanced. Not completely, but it is a step in the right direction.

The map graph is a very great, but it would be great if it told you more, right now it only gives very minimal information.

The shadow bolding on the text shouldn't stay. Nuff said. Did anyone notice the legs were backwards?

Other than that, it was very fun to test it out, thank you to the Devs for letting us play. Here's a screencap of what happened when all of us raced to the chopper on Ki11's map. Great time.

It's a release candidate. You can find the dowload link in the IRC.

The beta is out. Jump into IRC/Mumble and you can test it.

Dear lord! The 0.76 rifle is like giving a professional sniper a slow firing mecha and telling them go duck everything up!

If you have zero interest in joining Internet Relay Chat IRC you can find the RC http://ace-spades.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=63&t=5732&start=360 page 25 of this Thread.

My humble opinion:

I like the changes. Except the rifle rate of fire. If you spawn with a rifle you will be owned by a spawn camper. I just cant turn and put a bead on a head that fast. But if I could get 2 shots at torso I might be able to take camper out. So I would suggest 2 quick fire shots, then a pause for rifle.. .. .. ..

The chat text still mostly unreadable for me. Actually this is ok I am not playing to chat. I want to shoot. Plus I have old tired eyes, so it might be me. :)

All I really have to say is. I would not consider this game "legit" until something is done to curb the cheat scripts. this should be Bens first priority period.

1). Spawn campers don't happen that often, unless they swarm, then just grab another weapon.

2). Whatever floats your boat

3). Your going to have to pay on full release, less hackers, problem almost totally solved.

Personally, I can't wait for the paid version to come out.

Only 10 bucks to not get aimbotted by Brazilians and 12 year olds who figured out how to google "ace of spades aimbot download"? Easy decision.

I'd buy it now as is.

But back on topic. While the double tap idea is interesting, it has no basis in realism; even for a voxel based FPS shooter. Perhaps in a cone of fire recoil kinda thing this would work in that you could get off the first 2 shots reasonably accurate. Instead of the player being limited by the fire rate, they're more limited by recoil, which is more realistic anyway in that semi automatic firearms reload in the blink of an eye. Not sure how well this would mesh with AoS though.

Well, actually some firearms have a 2-shot burst fire mod, like the AN-94. In the 2-shot burst the two bullets are fired so fast that they end up hitting the same place, without the recoil interfering.

And was this approved?

Doesn't seem like legitimate material. :L
