RaverZ and Halte share the same misconception about how someone "becomes dev". Guys, in the history of this game, no one was ever "made" dev. You start contributing - and at a certain point, the dev team feels, that they know you and your work well enough, that they think, you can be allowed to merge your work without another dev working as a middleman. That's it. That is the only way.
RaverZ/Halte, if you think, that you know better - and that you can find enough others to do the work for you: go ahead and do it! It is that simple. Start working. Assaultcube explicitly encourages the development of modded versions of the game. If you ask nicely, some of the devs may even help you.
Btw, you can work both routes simultaneously: just make a fork on github and start working. If no one merges your pull requests into the main repo, finish your goals on your own.
However:
Put up or shut up!
MMMmm.
So we need a player who is in contact with the player base to climb the ranks so we can see the changes WE ALL KNOW are really needed be put in the game?
-Support new mods in MS.
-Quit map restrictions.
-Rework of server messages and menus.
-More weapons and weapon balance.
-Official maps revisited.
-Competitive scene via official webpage, not forum.
-Official ladder in AC's webpage.
-Official support of the mods with their ladders.
-Interaction with the player base form the devs; amas, being seen in game and recognizable by the community, history of AC tab...
And a long etc...
Theres's ALWAYS BEEN people ready to help, but there was this social diference between the elite and the non-elite and so many grudges held that nothing could be done, that's why we need new people there, people who aren't afraid of changes, not like jamz's "I HAVE TO PROTECT AC" or the other dude's "AC IS A REALISTIC SHOOTING GAME AND NO CHANGES WILL BE IMPLEMENTED" (regarding gema gameplay).
What have I done to change this? Maybe nothing, but in-game you'll see me everyday helping people out to learn gemas, and it's sad to see no one sticks to the game cause its almost dead.
