Instead of waiting for new updates and paying for openGL...

by **Moghard** » Sat Jun 30, 2012 3:33 pm

... Ben should release smaller updates with hands in FPS or weapon fix because everyone hate the semi now.
How long can we wait for an update, like .75 that was only adding sprint and some things, that i don't even remember?

I just feel, that the openGL update, that we will need to pay, will be released in 2013, and about 70% of our players now, will leave us. Giving us laggy helicopters, machine guns and RPG's for ultimate griefing, and the only thing that is good - fixing bounded cubes, i think, the game is not good or "completed" enough to pay for it!

I am only 15 years old, and i always play old pirate games, because my parents don't want to pay for a stupid game, because i'll just loose my time, i could use for reading books, or learning! I'am not going to pay for it!

I love creating mods for AoS, and i will always make them, even when AoS will be P2P! This game is amazing, and it's still getting new players, and loosing new, when they are waiting 2 years for a new shitty update! But it will loose ALL the talented modders and players, because most of them are 8-15 years old! The rest is not going to even thing about it, because they got a giant amount of money, they spent on computers and new video games. Maybe 10$ is not much, but young people don't always get everything they want likw other kids, coz their parents are rich or just let their kids play new games all the day.

My Pc is 9 years old, and i lag in Ace of Spades, that have shitty graphics, but i still like it! I never played CoD or Battlefield 2 or 3, Medal of Honor, Crysis, Gears of War, or other games with amazing graphics, not because my Pc is a time machine (my friend called it like that), but because i need to pay for them! Now i don't need to pay for AoS, but it's the only one game, that i can play, and i like it!

You will probably say "but you can still get a pirated ver. of AoS". But i won't meet my friends in game, like Hompy or my clan members. It would be better if AoS will stay free to play for ever. Ben don't need to pay for scripts or models for the game, so it costs him nothing to make this game. So it shouldn't cost players to play his game! I was making a game too, but i wasn't feeling like "hmm a lot of ppl play this game, so i should get $$$ from them, coz i work hard on it". I wanted to give people fun of playing this game for FREE. FREE (the game was never released lol)

I know lot of people want this game be FREE! And they are right! I was waiting for the openGL update like other was waiting for that shitty Daibolo 3, and when i saw that i will need to pay for it i was like "but this game is not worth of buying it!"

What you people think? I am sure most of you think the same thing...

I feel ya bro. I have (or rather, had) the same situation as you for a long time. But everything costs money. Especially everything good. If you can't buy it, oh well. I know i'm not going to buy it when it comes out on P2P, even though I'll most likely have means of doing so by then (18 and stuff). But AoS currently has many problems some of which are solveable by P2P - griefers, hackers, oh and money is always good to have. Unfortunately some people are left in a disadvantage from this - eg. decent people becoming alienated because of not being able to pay.
But there are many of other free games out there that may be just as enjoyable, all you gotta do is... search :O

Ben and mat and whoever else works on this game deserves money. Its kinda rude to say they dont.

Now, hold your tits people, according to what we already know, there will be a free version and a payed version.

WOOOW, probably the free version is 0.75 and the payed is 1.0 FANTASTIC NEWS ZEKKE

But i think the free version will be a lot more shitty, like you can't get points to get the HMG, you get bounded cubes, can't use mods or can't play or premium servers...

There will be a new release fairly soon, 0.76.

And there will be a paid and a free version of 1.0, on the OpenGL and Voxlap engine respectively.

This.

I don't think Ben ever expressly stated there will be a paid and a free version, but it's probable.

Nope, as Reuben stated, its going to be .76. Also, I dont respect the sarcasm or the ZEKKE. Its Zeke.

What do you expect? Do you expect an uber amazing game, for free? Also, HMG is for 1.0, as its been stated a million times, mods are gonna and always be available to use, and there will probably be a diversity of servers. I know for a fact aloha will have a few servers for those who cant afford or use 1.0.

I was talking with him about the "going commercial" idea, and he said he was going to have a free version along with a paid version, of course with different features on each version.

Yes, true, but its gonna be +1 better than what we got as of now.

Now just a minute here noone said they don't deserve money for developing AoS, of course they do, and it's their choice to to do whatever they want with the game, but it's the consequences of turning the game to P2P that we are talking about here.
And there certainly are great games that are free, but have certain features that encourage people to donate. Eg Tribes ascend, team fortress 2, etc. I don't see why AoS couldn't be like that.

Danhezee and I (along with some others) are taking an AoS strike.

We refuse to play until the next update. Feel free to join us.

I'd actually pay $15 right now to have AoS 1.0...
