I think we're allowed to give the game some polish.
Is this polish, or just adding something uneeded?

This client-side stuff, it should be enabled by default but have an option in Assist to disable it for whiners like Killa :)

DO what you want, I don't even play the game. It just seems pointless, kinda like when everyone was obsessed with adding a knife to the game.

The knife is an addition because it's external. This is stuff that already is part of the game.

I agree with Killa, significant changes like this shall be made optional, not enabled by default.

NO, YOU do what YOU want, I don't even play the game!

Then nobody is going to use them because they won't know that option came around. AA players are stupid, things have to be forced upon them before they're willing to try something.

But AA is not some new, in-development game. It's an old classic, which people play mostly beacuse they are used to it. Forcing significant changes upon players won't do any good, can only make them quit. And I don't think that the reason is that 'they are stupid'.

Come on, we are talking about _sights_ here. Not some serious bug, just sights.

But they are stupid, stubborn and narrow minded. It's a fact that's been proven. You have to force things to show people that the feature is available then they can disable it in Assist if they want to go back to boring lame gameplay on Bridge.

I think this belongs to the kind of things that actually are an improvement but that should also get some feedback from the community (such an hard thing considering how poor the feedback was until now - both in terms of quantity and quality).

So, considering that most of the players don't even bother to visit the forums, you would hardly get them to post a feedback unless you use some kind of a news platform integrated into the Assist login page (which they would kind of forced to see, at the very least)

I think this would be cool. The news could be posted here (much like the current news) and I would be willing to write up a little php code to pull the latest news piece for Assist to read.

I can talk about it while I'm having my morning coffee but it doesn't mean I'll continue to sit on my ass for a few hours coding or making maps for AA.

The news idea I think has been brought up by a few people, but it is a good idea.

I think that would take a bit more coding effort than just a news page. I don't know that I would put THAT much effort into it.
