Lag is a big issue
Sadly, playing this game is not that fun for me because lag is a huge issue. The thing is, guns will miss a lot even if the player was directly under your crosshair. I believe this is an issue with Minetest itself: It was never made to be a first-person shooter so doesn't take into account when quick responses are required. This shouldn't be a surprise since the same issue arises with many other FPS-style games for Minetest.
Other FPS games (non-Minetest) are much more reliable with this.
I give it a neutral rating because I want to recognize the depth and hard work that was put on it. But I cannot give a recommendation either. The game would be fun if the guns wouldn't lag so much. I guess on a LAN it would be more playable tho.
Awsome and suggested to try ;)
I realy like it! The code is simply, and waiting for the xp ! ;D
Very Good!
I like playing this on Minigames A.E.S and it's fun to make my own maps. Also the textures are VERY good.
Love this game
I have so much fun whenever we organize a tournament on the AES server :D
SIMPLY AWESOME **!!!
I never played S4League, but i am a REALLY lover of FPSArena (like Open Arena and Xonotic <3) and this Block League with its "TouchDown" mode is a very balanced and funny gamemode like a CTF with also the "Arrow-weapon" that allows you to do some Trick like big jumps and streaf :D
Really fun and good Minigame!
Cool
Great work done there
