SVS Subspace Forums - A Small WarZone

When is this active?

Tue, 23 Apr 2013 17:07:16 -0600

My name is Ron, I was Soul Preacher for about 10 years playing Choas, Premier League, Powerball, Hockey, and A Small Warzone. I played on Prestige and won acouple titles back in the day with my good friend Dantos.

I was wondering when you guys play this? I would love to join you. I miss Subspace alot, if it was active I would quit every other game and just play it like I used.

Let me know.

Game Tonight?

Tue, 26 Feb 2013 13:20:11 -0600

I don't know how often people check this, but is anybody interested in trying to get a game going tonight? Maybe start messing around in the zone around 8 ET? If not, is there a scheduled night people try to play or does anyone still update the @aswz twitter feed?

ASWZ sub-arena in TW?

Thu, 07 Feb 2013 06:09:28 -0600

Hey all,

Cintra and I have been talking to some of the powers that be in TW. Seems we can probably get an aswz sub-arena in TW once we have the maps and settings. (Just came across: [url=]http://maps.aswz.org,[/url] might be all we need if those can be adapted for subgame.)

Some Benefits:

-TW seems to be a more active zone than Chaos

-Could probably entice players to try it out through bot announcements to pub

-Hosted games (maybe with rewards of TW's pub currency) might also entice players

Also, I've been thinking about joining staff (mod and/or bot developer) for TW. I wouldn't mind taking a stab at rewriting the old pub bot for TW's bot core .

Thoughts?

Folks, it's good to be back

Mon, 23 Jan 2012 00:12:08 -0600

To all the people who were once an integral part of my childhood/youth,

It's good to be back. After years of retirement from subspace/continuum, during which my mind would often wander to the amazing days I had playing with each and everyone of you, let's bring ASWZ back in full-force.

I hope all of you have been living it up these last couple of years. I've lost touch with pretty much all of you, and it would be great to reconnect with everyone in an ASWZ game. Even willing to bring out my brother, hobbes.fu, for this occassion haha.

Joined the fb group but will continue browsing the site in full after work tomorrow.

Regards,

night.aswz

?go ASWZ

Currently uploaded a map (can always be changed) and the settings from SSXA A Small Warzone in ?go aswz in Chaos.

If you guys have any thoughts, suggestions, ideas, lemme know. Anyone who'd be interested in organizing this as a weekly event/get togethr, hit me up and we can discuss this.

This should give ya a 24/7 available place to play ASWZ.

Bot(s) hopefully coming soon.

SSXA aswz, if anyones interested....

If anyone is interested I may consider putting the server back up.

email me or something.. jonathan@xpressamerica.net

?go ASWZ

Sun, 20 Feb 2011 00:34:32 -0600

I know it is like saying the zone is a lost cause maybe to you guys, but it is possible to put it up in Chaos with the other zones as a sub-arena that can be hosted from time to time. Warzone's former players have found this a great thing as they do it weekly after premier matches and easily get some good sized games going like the old days. You'd have not only old ASWZ players, but possibly some new people interested in it.

Just a thought. Saw this forum had been dead for some time, so figured I might help ya spark some interest again.

Pub time

Tue, 12 Oct 2010 11:19:14 -0600

We gotta have a scheduled time for people to check if anyone is in pub just to mess around. It doesn't always have to be a league game. Anywhere between 4-10PM eastern standard works for me. Let's narrow it down to a good hour to be checking for players.

My annual push to revive ASWZ:)

Thu, 09 Sep 2010 16:59:57 -0600

I have been away from the forum for a long while. I see there is an ASWZ.org. Is ASWZ on its own server now or still a sub-arena?

I'd love to get involved somehow in its resurrection. When I began playing ASWZ I was 15 (began SS at 14) and at 26 years of age I still pine for some flagging action that only this zone brought. I think a part of me will always hope one day this zone will again come alive and have a steady population of 25 or 30.

Is anyone else interested beside me?

Zone host

Mon, 31 May 2010 15:05:21 -0600

Is this zone hosted on a Linux machine? :?

Want to play ASWZ again ?

Mon, 01 Mar 2010 12:26:08 -0600

Send me a message to : tirex83@gmail.com

Write me your Subspace Alias and the best times for you to play ASWZ.

The only way to set up games for a small community like us is to communicate efficienly. By sending emails, we will know when we can set up a game and if people will show up.

Im gonna wait until i get enought email to start scheduling games.

Have a good day,

old ASWZ site

Sat, 16 Jan 2010 14:27:51 -0600

Hello,

I used to play ASWZ a long time ago. Great times /smile.png' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='' /> I just ran into the new http://www.aswz.org site. Are there enough players to play a flagging game now and then? If the timezone differences allow it (I'm in GMT+1), I can try to join.

Back in the time I made a two maps for ASWZ. The second never got finished. I remember making some changes to it a while ago, but it seems these have gotten lost during a Windows reinstall. I do think I uploaded it to a then-current ASWZ site. It might have been aswz.net. Who was running that site? Or does someone else have a copy of the maps that were stored on that site?

Cheers!

Current Status of Zone?

Fri, 23 Oct 2009 18:41:52 -0600

Hello!

For a while now I have noticed that this zone is always offline. Is this correct?

Hi. Just to reminisce

Sat, 04 Jul 2009 16:01:07 -0600

Hi. I was just in bed resting and for a reason I can't remember I started thinking about Subspace/Continuum and how much I used to play (specifically in ASWZ). This was a long time ago, probably like 2000-2002. So anyway I searched on Google and found this place to post. So here I am.

My ID back then was Artanis16 (dunno if anyone will remember). My older brother's ID was Auroa (people are more likely to remember him). I was never in any of the big squads but I was in a couple of smaller squads that did compete in the squad league. But those squads died quickly.

I remember ASWZ being a sub-arena for the bigger Warzone zone and then it eventually became it's own zone. I remember the base in one of the maps was called "combs" and consisted of nine honeycomb shapes put together. I remember attaching. Safe zones. Thor's Hammer, that fireworks burst thing, Repel, Cloaking, Radar, Portals (all I can think of right now). Using macros to send team messages that I'm in their base and everyone should attach to me to get all the flags or that our base needs defending. Warbird (the most basic one), javelin (high health, fast speed, can't turn well), spider (could cloak and had level 3 guns), leviathan (slow, but could shoot level 3 bombs), terrior (had the twin guns), weasel (the emp bombs), lancaster (bouncing bombs), shark (could also cloak I think). And I still know very well the song that plays when a team has all the flags and are winning.

When I played I was around 13-14 years old so yes I'm now in the middle of college. Auroa has been out of college for several years now.

The reason I stopped playing (I think) was because I started playing Starcraft again and eventually Warcraft III. I'm not sure if ASWZ died also, but I think it did. I don't plan on ever playing again (not enough time and I'm playing other games now ^^ ). But yeah. If there are any old-timers here I'd like to hear what you have to say and see if you're still alive.

i definately just...

...farted and a little shit came out

Game for Low Population: Attackers/Defenders

Tue, 31 Mar 2009 21:58:28 -0600

Since we need at least 10 people to effectively play a real ASWZ flag game, we need something to play while we have fewer than that many players. So what if we just drilled attackers v. defenders?

The rules I've tentatively come up with go like this

Map consists of one ASWZ-style base.
Base contains one carryable flag, placed in the flag room (not turf flag).
Attackers spawn in the center, near the greens.
Defenders spawn in the flag room.
To win, Attackers must pick flag and drop it (hold for 60 seconds).
To win, Defenders must prevent Attackers from winning for 15 minutes.
After game is over, teams are switched and game starts again.
Defenders are given 60 seconds to set up before Attackers begin.
Map lasts for 60 minutes, then a vote occurs and map changes.

There are some other ideas I've had that I don't know are good or bad

What if the map was two bases, when the attackers got through one, they spawned at the end of that base / beginning of base 2. This allows the defenders time to regroup.
Freqs are balanced so that if they are not even, only defenders ever have fewer players. To make up for this, defenders get a robot terrier ship to help defend (cannot place too near to the flag).

What I like most about this idea is that it allows us to play ASWZ-style games without needing 10 people. 6 people (3v3) would essentially simulate a 6v6 game (3 attackers, 3 defenders).

What I don't like is the amount of programming that will be involved. I'm not sure I can have something of this magnitude done by this Sunday.

Please comment on this idea and let me know what you think! Additional ideas are always welcome!

Event Log 2 - 2009-03-09

Mon, 09 Mar 2009 00:30:29 -0600

Today we reached 5v5 in our event! Thanks to all those who showed up to play!

We still need more people. To keep you better informed of when people are playing, ASWZ now has a twitter feed: [url="http://twitter.com/aswz"]http://twitter.com/aswz[/url] . The feed will be updated automatically when ASWZ has at least 6 people in pub. With this, we can have impromptu events at any time! I'm open to suggestions as to what else we could do with the twitter from inside the zone (allow spamming by people who want to organize a game, for example).

If anyone has an idea for an avatar for ASWZ, I'm open to just about anything.

Remember: Next Sunday, March 16 at 9:00pm Eastern
