Assaultcube is a first-person shooter video game designed to be very fast and works on almost any computer and operating system, as it requires very few resources.
We can find it in Debian and the objective of the game is very simple: Play Online with your friends. Although of course, we can also do it alone against some bots. I personally love its graphics, and the recoil when firing a gun is quite realistic, something that is not appreciated in games like openArena, For example. Assaultcube is an excellent alternative for lovers of Counter Strike 😛

Another one that I like the most is Urban terror. Although I think it consumes many more resources.
also found in Arch in the community repositories 🙂 http://www.archlinux.org/packages/?sort=&q=assaultcube&maintainer=&last_update=&flagged=&limit=50
I install it and see if hopefully I try it tomorrow
mmm my Debian Testing does not catch it in the repos 🙁
is in contrib
therefore it depends on non-free packages, so I'm not interested
The game looks good bad luck is not in the Sabayon repos, I will download it from the page and try to compile it
It reminds me of the half life that I used to play hopefully and this in fedora, which is the one I'm wearing for now
It seems that its development is stopped, there is a fork called AssaultCube Reloaded, which does have updates this year.
We will have to try them.
Thanks for the tip ^^
No unreal bullshit.
You play "One Shot One Kill" mode and if you get shot in the head, your game is over. You are very careful.
"Realistic" is the keyword of these games.
