AssaultCube Reloaded (ACR) is a free-and-open-source first-person-shooter. Formerly called AssaultCube Special Edition, it was created by the AssaultCube Reloaded Task Force to improve AssaultCube.
This game combines the best of all worlds:
- realism (from Battlefield)
- server-sided “anti-cheat” (inspired by the Quake engine)
- perks (from Call of Duty)
- mutators (from Red Eclipse)
- fast-paced gameplay, with a low system footprint (from AssaultCube and the Cube Engine)
Here are just some of the many improvements compared to AssaultCube:
- New, diverse game modes and mutators
- Many new and different weapons
- More realistic gameplay: damage fading over distance, bleeding, drowning
- Ricochet shots (bouncing bullets)
- Chat easily visible, separated from the main console
- Less potential cheats (more server-sided code)
- Better voting system: ignore neutral votes, veto admin votes after second press
- Improved radar showing explosions and shotlines
- Killfeed making it easy to see kills
- Spawn enqueue/dequeue—no need to spam the spawn button

We try to avoid banning; the system should prevent the issues instead. If we are forced to use bans as a last-resort, we never issue permanent bans. However, to prevent abuse, repeated offences result in longer bans.

This project originally started out as a modification of AssaultCube to reduce possible client cheats. Now, it is a completely different game, with different gameplay.
