What'd you do in your first day of Ace of Spades?

[Priok]

I don't really remember that much from it, but something I remember doing pretty early on was destroying a big chunk of the map with some people on some server, that was pretty fun. There was a guy named Deuce4 on the blue team who was really keeping the chunk stable, but then he gave in and started helping

[Anomalous]

I joined an the 2nd day of its release when it first started getting posted all over /v/.
I remember nobody really knew exactly what was going on since it was so new, and everyone was running around half confused, and you were always scared as duck whenever you heard that "tok tok tok tok" down below you. you'd be walking along and suddenly some grenades would fly over the hill and next thing you knew you'd be crouching in a trench bewildered with 2 health left, hoping to god that the enemy doesn't run by, find you cowering and kill you. I remember walking through a tunnel for the first time. lawdy, I was scared as duck. I don't recall the server, since I tried so many before being able to find one. I remember it took me a while to be able to aim well, especially since I first started with a laptop trackpad. That prepared me well for when I got it on my desktop though.

later you started learning the ropes, learned to jump out of water, how to make camo bunkers and bridges, and how to use teamwork to gain advantages. started helping your team erect huge castles and roads to travel on (since you needed that without auto-climb. god I hate auto-climb.) The whole experience was greatened by all the threads on /v/ that were filled with propaganda for both teams, and comics that made fun of each team.

That was the real AoS experience. I literally played for about 7 hours straight on my first day of playing (granted, 2 hours of that was probably filled with trying to actually get into a server.) I feel bad for anyone who didn't get to experience the game in this prime moment, before hacking and griefing was even a problem since it was so new.

Also, started on green, and will forever play green.

> play on Aloha and get +100 in an hour, think I'm the shot or dominating the server
> try to votekick all the griefers and teamkillers but the other team laughs and refuses to kick
> post on Aloha forums telling them that votekick is shut and broken

That wa a fun day but can't believe how pro I thought I was XD

Lots of people i have forgot sorry if i did.

[Yakkers]

I started playing on one of the first few days of release after finding it on /v/.
It took me a while to get used to the drunken camera and jagged edges, but the raw war gameplay and blue army/green army progaganda thing /v/ had going on really drew me in.

[themightycomrade]

First time I played I didn't get why I always missed everyone, and was raging at everyone, who dared to headshot me, because I thought where cheating, for being able to headshot, for a 349823940583409 blocks distance.
Then of course then after my 3rd time of playing this game, I discovered the almighty iron sight, and from there I became the totally super cool pro dude I am today or something (that was in the rifle-only days, so yeh).
Oh, and I joined a swarm of d**k builders, to show that I am good for something.

[Fluttershy]

I think i tried to demolish a pyramid on a near flattened gen map. shortly after i built an autistic tower and i sat there waiting for nothing because everyone was busy lone wolfing it or building useless shit....*sigh*...nothings changed....

[Slayerforce]

Heres my story

It all started at school, eventually we got tired of playing Halo Combat Evolved on the computers at computer class, I dont know who but we just started playing ace of spades, so we tried playing, attempting to see what the features are, and i sit by my 2 friends, so we made a small group and we started annihilating the 8th graders, i had a great feeling when you see

Me and my friends, hell yeah server to ourselves.

well, the site was overloaded and it was just text:

and there was no loading bars and half of the servers didn't work, or took forever to load. So I was trying to load them and doing random stuff in my room while waiting. And I started recording when I was in the game, (and I had lot's of fun) and I also have the clips on my computer now ;)

every now and then a flying hacker throwing random nades everywhere appeared. I thought it was fun trying to kill them ,)

[Kalin]

Got my ass handed to me trying to help with the protection of a hill from a blue (or was it green?) assault on some random server. Was really fun, I miss dying a lot.

I remember those days :) Would take twenty minutes just to enter a damn server. Then, one day, the website transformed into something so much better :)

Not to mention, I remember the first hackers. When ever there was someone flying or a gen map was at it's core, a hacker was around.

Dug under the continent until it fell down in one mighty crash.

Now, most maps have nothing to dig into...

[Chikenuget]

Joined in random servers some time around .4. I actually read the "readme" and tried to remember all the controls. I was so addicted to the silly red sights and the sound a block would make when you place it down. The first time I ever joined I just ran around asking if anyone needed help building something. After that, I became a regular at Sham's Little Pony, like Tank said, the players just had more skill to contribute, and the maps there were always something new. Eventually I got used to playing and would only play on island. Island was just so much fun for me ): The map would change so much back then, and you could build "trenches" (this island wouldn't reset that much, eventually there were so many buildings) among all the structures.

I'm picky enough to say that the look of the scoreboard was so much better back then. I also loved the map loading screen, it just seemed so slick. If anyone has mods to make it look like my good old days ( font changes, splash , the simple blue circle that represented you on the map ) I would love you forever TT^TT
