So, iŽve read about this neat little game on RPS (apropriate link here RockPaperShotgun). And as it was quite fun to play i decided to give back to the "Other games" forum what it gave me, namely good games.
To quote the devs:

Masjin is a team-based online shooter thing with flavours from TF2 and maybe a bit of Minecraft. The game is under heavy development, but it's playable and according to the players has offered some fun!

Players can select from 5 classes, which are:
Cybermason: A class that can dig walls even without any digging machines. Cybermasons are also much better at using the diggers.
Scientist: These guys heal team members automatically just by standing near them. They also regenerate hitpoints over time.
Fighter: Fighters have much more powerful guns in comparison to the two other classes, so they're ideal for attacking.
Ninja: Ninjas can't shoot and have less HP, but have pretty powerful swords instead. They also jump higher and have natural cloaking.
Engineers: Engineers can create items even in the field, and they can repair turrets by standing near them.

Even though the classes are present, the main emphasis is on the different machines and vehicles the players can use. These include stuff like diggers, airplanes, mech suits and turrets.

A gif says more than several pictures, therefor have some.

And the skys!

ZOMG SPAMBOT! SHOOT HIM DOWN ALL!
...
This looks like fun ^^

[SirAaronIII]

This actually DOES look like fun, and this isn't his first post. It's his 3rd. Not really an improvement, but still, at least he's not giving us a referral link and telling us to "give him moniez pl0x you fhegg0t noob!!111!"

I'll try it out.

[Shadowgandor]

^Yea I know, I was just kidding

[quinnr]

Hrmm, no Linux version. I'll have to try and get Wine to run it.
Because this is so freaking awesome.
So awesome that I'll go tell other people about it before I even try it.

[Chaosgabe]

Thanks for the positive replys, iŽll go back and play it some more now. ^^

Upon reading thread title: Please excuse me while I remove this premature jizz off my underwear.

They seem to have crushed together almost everything I love. I doubt it's turn based, but for the love of christchurch, the only way I can picture this being any better was if it was like Frozen Synapse to control the characters, then I would have to declare it game of the universe.

I can't play it on a DSi though =(

[SirAaronIII]

I tried it. It was SO SWEET man how about a bro hug bump
I even shot the maker of the game to death!

...wait

In the words of a title of a song who I can't remember the artist for:

Fuck youuuu!

[ToonyMan]

I'll try this out.  CC

My story which hasn't happened and probably won't happen, but this is what I'm dreaming:

An enemy vehicle launches an explosive towards me. I jump at the last minute, and get launched upwards. A teamate was flying overhead, and as I got to where he was vertically, he went akimbo and jumped out. I managed to get in, shoot down a load of people on the floor, hop out, grab the flag and have the plane explode in such a way in that I got blown back into our base. We won. =3

...This is how the game works, right?

[Neonivek]

Needs work... a lot of work.

[quinnr]

I need a better computer, it's either that or Wine not handling it well.

Darn. Looks like an awesome game, especially with the whole digger class (I can pretend to be Simon from Gurren Lagann!), but it's personally very laggy, probably because I'm on a fail computer. Oh well.

I was gonna make this very thread!
I've tried it a few times, but nobodies been on.

[Neonivek]

Do not join a guy named "scooby"'s games.

He is an awful person.

Spent the entire time before anyone joined killing me and a friend in our base [in a CP game.] while calling us noobs.

Then proceeded to ban us, either because we started taking the CP or because he stopped being able to kill us.

Nothing I'm unused to, but what a jerk.

Yeah it always stinks when games have VERY terrible ways to harass your own team.

Not that it is REALLY a complaint. Some of the best games fall appart easily with trolls.
