now that i have bought Ace Of Spades it doesn't feel right i liked the simplicity the game had another thing i don't like is with weapons it was quick luck shooting with op weapons now it is hide and shoot with low power weapons and no luck/even skill...
As they've said, they're implementing new WW1/2 game modes to bring back the simple gameplay of the beta.
And hide and shoot? I can guarantee nobody is hiding in this game.

What I know, Ben the original owner of the game sold it to Jagex, and then tried to buy his game back. Jagex basicly said, "No screw you" and no one knows where Ben went.
Now that Jagex has released build '1.0' they have ruined the simplicity of the game and made it into a faster paced game. Many of the old players moved to Build and Shoot (http://buildandshoot.com/) which they continue to play the old '.75' build.
TL;DR Jagex screwed Ben, and ruined the game in my opinoin.
Hey guys, I'm getting back into the forums and I decided to reply to this old zombie:
I took a look at the game and it's kind of repulsive to me, honestly, I didn't think Jagex would do a good job and my suspicions have been confirmed. I feel like they'll develop for 6 months and abandon the game if they don't have people pouring money at them from all directions. Speaking of direction, the direction the game is taking now seems like it's trying to be CoD and TF2 at the same time, which is exactly what the old version was trying not to be. It also seems to run really slow for people, and from limited observations, threads and members are dissapearing rapidly on their forums, they're clearly trying to supress the fact that a ton of people aren't happy with the game.
On a final note, the WW1 and WW2 game modes are trying to buy back older players. I doubt it will work.

Won't work, trust me. Almost all of the old players have been banned for their "Join the fight stop Fagex". What do you know Jagex also banned anyone whom even mentioned Build And Shoot. Damn, if anyone is going to buy the game after Jagex bans anyone who says the slightest negative thing about it no wonder they are losing profit.
GG Jagex, give up. Give the game to the community.
I bought the new Ace of Spades, and what really disappointed me is how slow it goes. My laptop used to be able to run it perfectly back before it got bought by Jagex, but now it's much slower.
It's still good, but I liked it before a more not just because of the lag, but because it was more original.
To be completely honest, I picked up AoS and I'm enjoying it. I have 11 hours played so far. I remember seeing that game when it was free, and it looked like absolute garbage. Then I see it on Steam and it's all nice and polished looking, so I give it a go. I don't see where all the hate comes in.
P.S.- You can crash servers by digging out underneath whole islands and making them collapse. Fun fact of the day
Jagex were actually quite reasonable in the past. They offered a free version of the game whereas most other MMORPGs don't. However recently they became greedy money grabbing ba$t@rds. They have released a store called Solomon's General Store where you can buy clothing and hairstyles with real money, they used to release those things for free. The prices are rediculous, Assasin Outfit costs $60. Members get a laughable 10% discount. I really won't be surprised if they do the same with this game.
I actually got perma-banned from the AoS forums for voicing opinions!
Thats a load of bull ! I expressed my concerns for the game and even suggested how they could make it better.
Fagex are internet Nazis. Terrible company, they dont listen to the community at all.
I got banned for trying to start a boycot on the forums. Nice freedom of speech, Jagex >
yeah it isn,t that great anymore, i like that they improved the graphics but building is too hard now you can place like one block a second. i don't like the classes they have provided and it is really laggy on the servers (not the computer's fault). all i thought they needed to do was improve the graphics and balance the game and somehow make it harder to grief.

For a multi-million dollar company, they really don't know what they're doing.

viva la AoS classic! the community is keeping it afloat (search "Build and Shoot" to play AoS classic). i hope to find the source code* to continue the AoS classic movement. any ways there are some people making new clients (iceball and a newer voxlap version (built from scratch(i think(these parentheses are getting a annoying)))) but in the end AoS will never die**
*i am not a representative of any company, i have little to no experience in coding.
** i hope i don't jinx my self (pun not intended)
if jagex sees this they will probably ban me from their forms and game (i refuse to call it AoS).
I made this map! Please check it out! It's a really awesome map that took me over a year to make! :3

Nobody complained about it being simple. Maybe they complained about the graphics, but that is about it.

Like Srg. Shultz says:
