Ants are the most well balanced specie of the mod. They can attack very effectively with theyr jaws but at the same they can punch out a great long range projectile made of a very corrosive acid like liquide. Perhaps this will be the most prefered race for beginners.
The brute of all species, the Termites are mainly focused around bull-rushing and brute force. They have very thick armor and also carry some extremely powerfull jaws. They make some formidable close range opponents. But thick armor means slower movements speed.
Wasps, as anyone would suggest, will be able to fly. They will have the air superiority over the other insects species but at the same time will be alot weaker on the armor side. Less armor means more speed, thus making them very hard to hit. They will rely greatly on their ability to sting wich is very powerfull against the enemy but at the same time very dangerous for you as you have to get in close and personal with the enemy. But trust me, even with its low armor, a well trained Wasps player will be a very tough opponent in a battle.


So at least the ants can shoot. And actually, if you click down into classes, it appears a lot of the termites can shoot as well. Though it looks like the wasps are purely melee.

So you're telling me that this extremely awkward crap is actually trying to say theres no shooting? Read to me a lot more like friendly fire was always on.
Same.

well if you passed english class you would realize you are wrong - no, wouldnt you?
You ALL fail english comprehension. Can you not actually read? What kind of dipshit are you to read that quote and think duh....no shooting!

Lets go over the quote shall we, shitforbrains?
In fact, it does not only allow you to shoot anybody at anytime but it emphasizes on team play tactics.
It does not only allow...lets read that twice to make sure shall we? Does....not....only....allow. You see, if it said "Does Not Allow" then it would mean no shooting. But that only there reverses its meaning.

Shall we look up only in the dictionary?
Only:
Exclusively; solely: facts known only to us.
Lets put the dictionary definition into the sentence, so you clusterfucks can understand it.
In fact, it does not solely allow you to shoot anybody at anytime but it emphasizes on team play tactics.
Get the meaning of the sentence now? It's saying that as well as being able to shoot anybody at any time, the game emphasizes team play tactics

Now, understand? Although I will admit, whoever wrote that sentence in the first place must have failed english. It's horrible.

Could not load library client


GG

EDIT

ok so I downloaded the server files instead of the client files, but they were the only ones in the download section.


I mean if your going to spend so long on an innovative mod you at least should be able to fucking add it to the download section when it's realeased. Fuck. [/rant]

if it's free i will definitely be trying it out

according to the website this is an ALPHA VERSION which means it's more of a proof of concept than an actual game. so don't get pissed off when stuff doesn't work or the game is boring or not fun.
