Which one is your favorite and what are the pros and cons of each? I have been posting a bit more as I am active on the forums now.

One cannot blame thee rifle, for it is the wielders hands that frometh the accuracy comes.

(Openspades is eyecandy, so yeah....
PS. Going to be a bit bias considering this is in the Openspades section.)

Voxlap: crouch jumping. Nothing else needs to be said.

For competitive use (Clan matches, events, etc) Voxlap is going to be better (for example: Crouch Jumping, higher FPS, etc), but for normal, casual use OpenSpades is going to be better (eye candy, better animations, server browser in-game, just feels slicker).

My personal opinion is that OpenSpades is better, for those reasons listed above.

Edit: OpenSpades also works on Mac OSX, unlike Voxlap.

OpenSpades has a future. In, lets say 2 years, the voxlap version will still be 0.75/0.76 and will have probably less players than now but OpenSpades won't be the same. We could easier the very early versions of AoS with the current OpenSpades.

Ya I just don't know which one to use. I mean Openspades looks awesome but it is way harder to get kills imo.

I usually use the voxlap version, mostly because I am way better with it. But OpenSpades looks a lot better.

I think that both are amazing and immersive experiances. However i find that Voxel is better on incredebly hi action moments. Like close quarters tdm. And Openspades is best on wide open battlefields where you just have a nerdgasm from all the fancy grafics. :) that being said i think both are great and have there own good things.

casual play I have switch to entirely to OpenSpades. Admin duties and competitive play voxlap. Hopefully in the next few updates spectating will be fixed and I use OpenSpades for Admin duties. With a lot of training I could make the jump to OpenSpades for competitive play.

I've started using openspades, but it has its flaws. I find that openspades crashes when I run out of ammo, place a block when the outline is yellow, press certain buttons that aren't bound to anything, try to click drag in block placement, and press four to equip grenades when I've run out(I use the software renderer and YSR audio engine by the way). This isn't too much of a problem accept for when I'm in CQC and making split second decisions or occasionally forget. Of course, openspades is in early development and I can understand why I have these problems. It's a nice addition with all things considered and something that we can turn into our game.
