It's time to Transition

This won't happen in a day because I'm not doing a whole update just to remap keys!!!11!1!1!1111!111!1!!!!

>being this lazy
>not letting the user customize controls in the first place

>spamming the same shit 24/7
>not knowing about AutoHotKey
Btw, it't no laziness if I don't want to make an update that only contains remapped keys. And even if it was, you should be happy that I am coding VXW at all, despite the fact that few people play it.

@others: that's a troll.

Despite coming off as a retard, he is offering valid criticism, especially considering how others are backing up his points.
It would be wise to make an update to remap controls, btw.

I already know that. I also didn't write that I'm not going to remap anything, only that there's no point in making a new update that only has different keys and no other new things (which is modifying 5 lines maybe). Again, there's a special thread for suggestions. It would be a good thing to write what keys are misplaced, so nobody will complain again. (I already replaced the carrying/equipping key combinations with nteract and [K]Carry )

Lol this project's gonna be a rousing success

LeCom, why the hell do you get defensive and hostile about literally everything? Learn to take criticism, especially if you're making something for other people to use.

[LeCom]

guys please, we all know he's in his "that time of the month"

lol I'm not IceCream

What criticism btw? That 1-2 posts of Kyzaca?

Sad to see this game declining, although I've never really posted here I have played since the dawn of this game and seen it rise and fall, good times with friends actually enjoying this after introducing them to it, lets hope this'll work better this time. :D

It's Time to Move to, & Support, VoxelWar.
As most people would we aware, there is now an abundance of people saying "BnS is dead" or "AoS is dead" or similar.

BnS isn't dead, 1.x is.
Voxel War isn't even playable, I tried to play it but it crashed,

bns isn't dead, correct, but with admins that are dead it might as well be. if it crashed, update your version. server might also be down.

Whilst I don't entirely agree with that, I can see that the player count is gradually decreasing, Admins seem to be fairly inactive, and nothing really new is coming up. Whereas I myself am not a "Veteran" player as such, and don't claim to have authority, I have tried to positively influence the community, be active, and play the game. (I have been playing since June '13 I think)

Some people have played since the start of BnS.

yea, so?

So we come to an impasse- do we let this community die, and just move on, and do we try and pull something together to rise out of the ashes?

The community isn't dieing, it just keeps getting worse.

same diff.

We currently have 2 new projects running- Willy and Topo's effort, and LeCom's new client. For the moment, it seems development has paused (or entirely stopped) on that, which leaves us with LeCom's new client. (It seems OS development has stopped as well). I have seen for myself that while LeCom might not be agreed with by everyone, he is actively developing a game that he wants to succeed and is very responsive to questions or ideas.

VX seems to be a different game to me, it doesn't have that old feel that AoS 0.x has.

look, everything from "the old aos" is gone. it's start from scratch or live with what we have.

This leads me to come to the conclusion that we must start actively supporting LeCom's client- VoxelWar- which might not be all we would like it to be, but is a semblance of the classic AoS we know and like- the alternatives are shitty.

As you mentioned above VX isn't the only game still in development and Openspades is still being developed, otherwise YVT would tell everyone he is quitting it's development.

excuse my french, but who the fuck cares about OS anymore?

With this activity, we can Kickstart this project and get something decent from the ashes.

Warp
TL;DR: Support VoxelWar, move across to it pls.

It just seems to me that every year some people who join the community want something new, when all we really need is to make servers with admins on them and make the SMG less overpowered.

umm, that's kind of what VXW is.
*EDIT* I would be absolutely ecstatic if you joined the forum. we need old-timers like you.

It's sooooo sensitive. It's shaky. It's shit. It's trash. It's something I might throw up when I'm sick with Ebola.
When I'm trying to aim (like down my sights), it's not supposed to be x100000% more slidy and sensitive. Fix the lack of control settings. That should be priority #1. This will increase your audience and support. (:

Some more constructive criticism:

• Grenades look the same size no matter the distance away it is from you.
  If you look down far enough you turn upside down. Even more brings you full circle.
  Controls r shit and trash like the person who designed them.
  When shooting the mortar I also shoot my rifle. (This is probably the worst design flaw)

nice to see that the five-year-olds on the servers are also on the forums.

5 year olds with valid criticism.

[Captain_Pi]

Gotta agree. Game is so fleshed out, I'm not sure it should even be considered in 'alpha' yet.

criticism is only valid when one speaks english.

WAT

[Warp]

bitch please

I think he meant understandable/clear/reasonable language, which for him would be English.

Hence the comment.

English eh? Like the standard English he is speaking in?

[ReubenMcHawk]

Lol if his response to criticism is "waah you didn't use decent English" then he's going to have a lot of fun catering to this community

more like "shut up and PM lecom already you five year old". It doesn't do anyone any good if you complain about something and forget to tell the dev team.
