Umm... lol why do some of the servers use Fking airstrike its so bad. its actually a killstreak. And its basically grenades falling from sky... i like all the other commands onelctron or watever ruins it.

I'd like a Strafing run more than Carpet Bombing

strafing... wat do u mean cnt u strafe wen u press control

oh and this is completely off topic but how do u change ur password

Your username is snipers88 and you don't know what a strafing run is?

In your profile

... no :( i dont

oh nvm i know what strafing is... isnt it kinda like running

wat

Strafing is the practice of attacking ground targets from low-flying aircraft using aircraft-mounted automatic weapons.

example 2: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lm56PBKeNZ0

That's in military usage, in gaming usage it refers to moving the character sideways, which is probably what snipers88 was thinking of.

But I agree, the airstrikes annoy me severely.

Yeah, I have to say they're no fun. It's a reward system for camping, and the reward is the ability to spawnkill about half a dozen people.

Yeah strafing in video games is moving left or right while still facing forward. However I was talking about strafing in military aviation. He edited his post but he was confused as to what it was.

Whenever I see them used, they don't do shit. If you want a killstreak it needs to be a strafing run. There isn't a blast radius so people just spawning won't need to worry. I want to assume it'd be about 20 blocks long and 2 - 3 blocks wide and could team kill if your allies were too close. It'd being going either left or right only, up or down would cause problems with spawn killing. It'd also be able to destroy blocks which is something the airstrike lacks. I still say you shouldn't add this. It would only encourage camping and call of duty kids to spam the forums with more useless suggestions.

The dumb coming out of the OP is among the greatest quality I've ever seen.

Well it's obvious he's a Call of duty kiddie.

I personally like airstrike. I find it rewarding.

Rewarding for spawncamping, sure. The average player finds it pretty difficult to get a 6 kill streak without resorting to camping and sniping, and overall, I don't think it's very good for the gameplay.

Anyone who actually "likes" these are faggots who want the game to be easy.
I don't see what's reward about camping in one spot until you get one.

@Kaede, damn you got there before me.

Well the only people on my server that airstrike are fags with god mode on xp

Yeah, but who's the faggot that held the building contest that had these rewards:
1st Place: God mode for an hour on the server
2nd Place God mode for 30 minutes
Yeah, stop being a faggot.
Personally I think standing in the presence of our great leader is more rewarding
As you can see, she is Blonde and has blue eyes, thus proving her superiority to all others.

Now that pyspades has this feature it's hard to let go of it - it's gaudy and flashy and Deuces love it so. But we can still tune how it's implemented.

Would you guys prefer a timer on the airstrike, accelerated by kills? That was my first thought for alternatives to KS - I didn't like Hompy's choice of KS since it favors cautious players and I'm more of a risk-taking berserker type.

Also, would you like to have air defenses that do a reversal on an incoming airstrike and send the strike back to the guy who called it?

This isn't hard to let go of, and who cares if the deuces like it? They don't care about our community. They don't even care enough to learn how to change their username.

Timer sounds nice, but if it was something like the way mag was it'd be great.

I got to the highest chain of command in that game, certain airstrikes were 3:00 minutes, others were about 5 - 6. Also you had to control certain objectives on the map to even be able to call them. Destroy the enemy anti aircraft battery, before you could do that you'd have to destroy their communication equipment, artillery to stop them from being able to call that in every 2 minutes, and I think a trailer they could spawn in or some crap, it's been a while since I actually played it.

Oh wait, I forgot MAG doesn't exist, because the ps3 has NO GAMES.

Kaede-chan: The politics are the problem. The game needs new players to survive. How does one bring in new players? One way is to add more stuff. Even if it's bad for the game in a cohesion-and-focus sense, the tendency for an open game design is to accumulate more and more and never cut anything, because that keeps the largest number of people interested.

Almost everything in Ben's server is emulated in pyspades now; but the team still wants to develop it and further extend the game, and that means we're staking out policy on the future design, intentionally or not. And right now everyone with commit rights can dump a new feature in the game, and we all have our opinions...

So the conclusion I have to reach is, we should set up a process that can reason through the design decisions more democratically. Otherwise we will just end up with everything we can think of in pyspades, turned on by default.

How about you turn the game into casual bullshit? 2 head shots to die, 10 body shots otherwise.

Also you don't need to add shit to make this popular, you just got to spam other forums and viral the shit out of this even though you don't actually pay for this game.

>viral a free game
what.

>Go on /v/
>start ace of spades thread
>SAGE FOR VIRAL
I mean sure it's summer but still.

lol i hat COd and Ben himself said that he doesnt want this to be a twitch shooter... i think the same because honestly i like slow paced tactics :)
