OMG MINECRAFT RIPOFF.

Looks like a sweet game. Sadly, I don't like shooting games that much, especially FPSs.

I actually really like this game. I downloaded it today and have been playing for about 6 hours, and I get a solid 60 FPS no matter what is going on. Very easy game to run.

Pretty fun game. Needs more anti-hacking and anti-griefing protection though. There's literally nothing stopping a griefer from repeatedly joining the server and destroying things.

Might I add that this isn't a CoD type run and gun game. There are 2 weapons at the moment; the rifle and the SMG. The rifle is probably the best weapon to get acquainted with, because one headshot will stop an SMGer from getting anywhere near his own headshot range. And it's impossible to run and gun with the rifle. Just, don't try it.

I've heard about this game before. I've never bothered to try it out, though. Are there enough people online it constantly to make playing it worthwhile?

There are a lot of people online. Some of the servers are full.

And at epicfail, I always run and gun with the rifle. I ended a game last night with 80 kills. And ow, I just cracked my tooth. :s

You know, I hate games that just rip-off Minecraft *COUGHFORTRESSCRAFTCOUGH*.  Which is precisely why I don't hate this one, because while the terrain is blocks and can be modified similar to minecraft, this looks to actually be a war/shooter game, which makes ALL the difference.  Guns don't really belong in Minecraft, so make a game where they do belong.  Makes sense to me.  Who hasn't wished for terrain deformation and modification while playing a shooter?   :D

What I mean is that you don't sprint around everywhere and never stop to shoot. CoD is like, sprint everywhere, slow down to gun someone down, sprint for another 3 meters, gun another person down, etc.

the game really needs a better votekick. griefs can stay on too long and do too much damage.

Yep. And people will just kick about anybody for no reason.
Although I am looking forward to the next update, I hear they are adding new weapons.

Someone was trying to kick me because I got angry at hackers and switched team to grief a bit. Votekick failed.
Then i set up a votekick with the reason "stupidity" against him and it succeded.. :D
