I honestly don't think they should add anything else from now on
they're at a point now where they just have to start improving on stuff.

Eh, sustained small-arms fire could bring down a helicopter if it actually managed to hit it several times.

Overall I don't like the idea of helicopters as a game feature. They feel a little too advanced for AoS to me.

you could reinvent "blackhawk down" :P

if there gone be helicopters i want a black hawk with a minigun

but you could be able to take out the people inside a boat if the boats are the kind from D-day

if there is gone be helicopters there is gone be aa guns

helicopter eh... but the problem with vehicles the have to be taken out with explosives and grenades suck badly so he would have to add a rpg.

There's some debate about whether or not vehicles will ever be added.

Ben's said he might add helicopters and/or boats, both of which bypass the blocky terrain problem by not ever travelling on it. Land vehicles would probably be a huge pain to implement due to the voxel terrain.

but there would be certain downsides of the time period. Like what if Ben adds vehicles? I doubt he will but its possible, personally i think it would be stupid if he did since the terrain would be made out of blocks it would be hard to steer, escpaicially jeeps.

Very true, I think that adding simple WWII era weapons will be best for the games atmosphere.

what do you mean? Like terminators plasma gun in the first movie?

@Drewgon: Lol. Still, I think it's possible for the weapons in AoS to get TOO advanced.

@1337101
yeah, it does it like i said in one of posts in this thread.

"Ben may add a thermal vision later on, but its highly doubtful."

It is of the era during the great Blue vs. Green wars. The Green people are looking to expand into the mountains of Blue country due to their rapidly depleting block supply. The Blue with their extreme nationalism will stop at no cost to stop the Green empire, even if that means giving up their own lives to better the nation. They have nothing to lose and everything to gain.

Yes, but in general I think if someone is covering they shouldn't have to worry about some newb seeing them even in their most well-protected fortress and tearing on into their stuff with an SMG. It kind of negates a lot of the extant strategy in AoS.

well there are dark spots in certain areas that both teams could hide in, it would also be useful to see if enemys are in front of you and you dont know theyre there.

The name "Ace of Spades" is from the Vietnam war, the rifle is from WWII (It's a Gewehr 43), and the combat style and environment seemed mostly from WWI until the SMG got added (The SMG looks like an MP5, from the 1960's, but its performance can pass for an MP40. It's actually a little more accurate than a Thompson SMG). If I HAD to classify AoS as belonging to a specific war I'd say WWII, but AoS pretty much has its own universe at this point.

why would you want thermal vision? The models already stand out from the backround and are not camo-ed.

yeah i think it was supposed to be Revultionary War time period but i think it was moved to WW1 or 2

Like hell it isn't.

Even so, while AoS doesn't have a definite time period, I think it's probably safe to say that the AoS universe isn't quite up to modern equipment like thermal scopes.

not from cod

Ben may add a thermal vision later on, but its highly doubtful.

It would require a client mod.

Besides, asking for thermal scopes is a CoD kiddie request, which I totally disrespect. The players seem easy enough to spot to me as it is.

Like in the CoD games? I dont think so, Im pretty sure that would require a change in either the code of the game or the kv6 of the player.

can anyone make a thermal vision

Why is it that I am getting a black screen and a cross hair in the middle?

Edit; Fixed it.

Normally it's already in the game folder: http://www.mediafire.com/?qbz5blt25aboi62

Ok, so I wanted to make a map for this game, (Vimy Ridge.) So I searched VOXED in Google, and there aren't any downloads that I can find for it. Can anyone post a link to where I download VOXED or something like it?
