Or ripoff, whichever you think

Looks great though - nicer rendering, combat, fort building, blow built structures up :cool:

Due for release on Steam on the 12th I think

Some gameplay footage:

Could be good if you get a lot of people on it, any word on how many people can be on one map?

AHarvey · 3 Dec 2012 at 14:08

Sure I played this about 8 months ago.

Difficult to control, difficult to see what the hell was going on, no clear indication of targets on screen.

Good idea, poor implementation.

Hopefully they've sorted this out if it's being released on Steam.

That video looks pretty fun. Hopefully they've fixed the issues AHarvey mentioned above. I may give this a try.

From their server list, seems like 6-32 is the limit.

FrenchTart · 3 Dec 2012 at 15:28

If it's good I'll probably set up a server.

shame minecraft isnt on steam and the servers would be steam compatible

I played it a while ago and it didn't remind me of minecraft one bit

It was more of just a TDM.

Hmm don't think I would like that, I would know how many hours of my life I have lost to MC lol.

It's launched and on Steam - will probably download it tomorrow and give it a go

Windle · 14 Dec 2012 at 16:18

Anybody given this a go yet? Trailer makes it look pretty fun.

FrenchTart · 14 Dec 2012 at 16:23

Not yet. I was hoping someone else would take the plunge first and help me decide

What I am waiting for too

, according to the steam forums though, seems to be a problem with latency at the moment.

Anyone purchased? Steam are doing a 4 pack sale on at the moment, anyone interested in splitting a pack?

Gimpymoo · 2 Jan 2013 at 16:31

I got a refund on the 4 pack having discovered the new owners removed player hosted servers from the original release.

Idiots.

Just a poor FPS game disguised with "Minecraft" graphics and block destruction.

MrJohnSherry · 4 Jan 2013 at 12:26

Take it this is one to avoid? Only £3.49 at the moment on Steam.
