Aw shit yeah lets do this, some Ace of Spades. Voxel powered Team-based CTF with fully destructable/constructable procedurally generated terrain. If you get motion sick really really easy this might not be a good idea but try anyway.
Links
Get the game client here, its the only mirror at the moment.
Head on over to the server list to get playing.
[Note: Only the master server is running at the moment, but the server client is packed in with the installer, if you wanna run a server go for it, it'll show instantly on the server list. (Remember to open port 32887)]
Game Information
Alright so you got the client installed, your in the game, you have 5 items, its foggy, and you want to vomit cause looking down makes you sick. Now What Meta?
Glad you asked, just gonna brief you right here right now right here.

What now?: CP & Intel
Alright so you got a map, that shit is mad useful, check out this modified map that I personally modified modification so you can tell whats buckets from shit.
You got a Capture Point, that is where you take intel, and receive ammo/health/blocks. Looks a lot like the thing in this picture, almost identical.
The Enemy got some Intel you want, but they want yours so watch out cause they gonna get it. Its usually a briefcase with a colored arrow on it.
Now get out there and be a Winner
Now I know some of you might get upset that people be having a blast and you are feeling left out, this is something that is to be expected with the first phase of public beta testing. Don't worry your little head as solutions to problems are found out they will be posted in here, included will be questions that many a folk might bother to ask and I'm not one to repeat myself.
The Trouble Shoot
Trouble with the Config.ini file on Windows XP:If you are having trouble editing the config, open up Notepad as an Admin first, then open up config.ini in that, and then save it... (Submitted by Marshmallow)
Yeller Belly Bruhaha
Are there any plans for to be implemented features as of yet? At the moment, I'm only at liberty to say that different weapons will definitely be an addition, any other ideas are not yet concrete.
Although if it puts you at ease, any comments or suggestions made during regular playtimes will be heard and considered by the dev himself, bcoolface. (This won't always be the case)
Although if you want to share ideas, AoS does have a Forum.

Okay
Let's do this

am I doing something wrong, though, or does falling in the water mean you pretty much have to die to get out?
This is a problem
You have to crouch jump
Or rather, jump then crouch in midair, jumping from a crouch doesn't work
It's meant to encourage players to build bridges I guess? I don't know

I hope it has mac support
[So its minecraft] yes cause its a sandbox, no to everything else.
[Water kills me] You have to Crouch jump out of water (as in crouch in the air) because you can't destroy the lowest level of terrain which is at water level, it is meant to encourage building over water; as it also slows you down, makes grenades useless, etc.
I got distracted while typing the OP, but I was going to say that cause theres no way to know to do that otherwise.
:C
Also if you want to change your name you have to do it in the config file.
tommy noooo
also is it just me or are there only like three dudes in the server
god dammit meta
could someone that got it re-upload it?
'Cannot create the C:\Program Files\Ace of Spades\config.ini file.
Make sure that the path and file name are correct.'
And as far as I can see, they are correct.
couldn't change my name either
looked cool, but oh well
Steam
this is all meta's fault
The config file is created right there, if you look in your start menu you just click on it and its the third line down out of the 4-5 lines on the entire thing.

Also this is super fun.
maybe it's because I'm trying to run it on an adding machine
Steam
Someone in chat said it didn't even need a proper video card
What was it doing? Not installing, giving errors, not running, what?
I love it to bits
Steam
Thank you!
Also this game is a blast.
note: if you try to finagle with the permissions in the config that will cause you to crash like a motherfucker as well. just do what marsh said and it will work.
If you would please PM me your system specs, just do that dxdiag shit or give me all you know and I'll see to it BCF catalogues that shit up and see if we can give you an immediate solution, or assure you that you can play in later phases of the game.
Anyone else that has problems would you kindly do the same so we can hopefully get any future mishaps squared away, thank you kindly.
I am not surprised I am having problems
Steam
Shot em an email, he was going public beta the next day, offered my services of hyping the fuck out of his game.
Pro bono
Kind of like saw someone moving and asked em if they needed help with the boxes.
Please tell me I didn't fuck up at some point and go YUP CO-DEV ON THIS SHIT or something, I swear I didn't say that but my memory likes to make shit up or leave things out.
