    For those who don't know, Ace of Spades was this awesome free game that some guy made with voxel graphics, battlefield style gameplay, and building/digging mechanics. You could build fortresses, tunnel through to the enemy base; it was just an all-around good time.

    Then some company bought the IP from the creator and turned it into some shitty pseudo-fortnite game. Some people who appreciated the original game kept some servers running under the title Build 'n' Shoot. The service is still running, and you can download a free program that connects to them to play in matches.

    Super glad to see that it's being kept alive, it's such a fun and simplistic game, and anyone can play it with a halfway decent PC.

      Oh hell yeah, I used to play the shit out of Ace of Spades but I stopped after the buyout. Think it was Jagex that bought em.

    It would be cool if there was a chapo server for OpenSpades hosted by whoever is hosting the Minecraft one. Might even be able to recruit some people through it if you can register with the server list.

    I used to play this game and it is quite fun, but unfortunately the few times I played recently the server I was on was infested with actual nazis (might vary by server but there aren't many servers that people still actively play on.)
