Easier for you to install windows 7 than assist guys to make new AC instead of PB because PB isnt supporting AA2 anymore

so u go with the easyest? I say fix it plz, make this game avaiable for the most os´s possible. Get more players, if people who own w8 also can play this game it will enlarge the community, therefor its a win win situation, u can´t ask everyone who owns w8 to unninstall their (LEGAL - bought). Im not buying w7 neither im going to swap a legal os for a cracked version of w7.

Its your loss then mate.It isnt that easy as you think that okey lets make it work for win8 also.As I told you before it is about PB what wont allow it to run on Win8 and as PB isnt supporting the game anymore its pretty hard to think some kind of other solution.And most of the people who want to play it will run dual-boot as win8 is too tablet os and messy anyways

Assist still support Linux and linux distros are free, go for it, the language that Assist is written doesn't support Windows 8 already.

You get off your ass and create an anti-cheat system from scratch. What? You can't? Then shut up.

I tried before to do away with PB, But it does lots of thing that we can't do away with. Dual Boot Linux, Get Linux... Get used to it.
We should try to get 2.5Assist onto the Linux version of Stream.

Assuming you meant Steam, I'm not sure that's possible seeing as we didn't make the game.

I've contacted various people at AA over the years about even the possibility of having some help/information and never got a reply. Having the AA source wouldn't really do much unless you want to fix bugs or add more major content. It has nothing to do with integrating newer PB or fixing Win8 issues in Assist (which is likely due to Assist being compiled before Win8 was tested in RealStudio).
