Ace of Spades

What the fuck is Ace of Spades and why should I care?[/B]
Ace of Spades is a Voxel powered Team-based CTF shooter with fully destructable/constructable procedurally generated terrain.That should sound fucking awesome enough to get you to play already. However, the voxel-ness of it does make the graphics a bit trippy (especially when looking at anything up close) so you might wanna take that into account if you get motion sick easily.

Sounds cool, boss, where do I get it?
Well, the website was up yesterday when I found this gem but the servers seem to be overloaded right now.
The master server list (and the download for the game client) is currently on http://www.ace-spades.com. Again, there is supposed to be a real website there (and there was one yesterday) but I guess this game really exploded in popularity and brought the servers down)

Alright, I've downloaded all this shit, what do I do?
The first thing you're going to want to do is open the config.ini file and change your name! It's really annoying having about 20 deuces in a server. You can also change your resolution if you want, but this comes with an increased risk of weird graphics glitches. I don't think the game supports widescreen at this point so depending on your drivers your screen will either get streched out into a soupy looking thing or just have black bars on the sides.
*NOTE*
If you're operating on Windows Vista / 7 it won't let you save the config.ini file to the folder that it's in if you installed the game into program files. You're either going to have to save it to the desktop and paste it back to the Ace of Spades folder or open notepad as an administrator.

What next?
From the website posted above, join a server. You can't join a server by running client.exe, you have to join it from the website. After that, you're in the game!

Misc Notes:
-To get out of water, jump and crouch. You can also get over two block high walls this way.
-Going to your command point will refill your health, ammo, and give you fifty blocks.
-Headshots are instant kills
-You can't move your own intel, nor does it ever return to your command point until the enemy captures it. Defend it well!
-The game is currently in Beta 0.22, 0.26 was released but the game was rolled back because of server issues.
-There's a tumblr page with useful info, mods, funny stuff, etc over here : Ace Of Spades Game, as well as a blog with more serious business at http://aceofspadesdeck.********.com/
-:siren::siren: IF YOU MAKE A SERVER MAKE SURE TO FORWARD PORT 32887, OTHERWISE, NO ONE CAN JOIN YOUR GAME :siren::siren:
-The Master Server list can be a bit iffy, if you're getting a cannot connect to server error, it's probably because a) The server owner didn't forward port 32887 or b) The server's actually full and the master server hasn't properly updated yet

Re-Media tagging YT videos every time I edit the OP is getting annoying, so here's dem videos:
