Using mods on this wonderful game is shameful.
Like Tour de France. Are they all cheaters because they use different bikes and setup, diet and whatnot...? No. Are they cheaters when they use doping? Yes.
Same like here. Using different kinds of headphones, setting up your graphics / eq / keyboard the way you like it. Is it cheating? No. Wallhack, radar, aimbot = doping, not when you setup your graphics. You can also say that the devs wanted that everyone would play with the same keyboard button input and the option to reconfigure is a leftover from the unreal engine. BS. If they wouldnt want us to play around with the brightness they would have removed it.
no no, you dont see reported enemies, just a location, you or your teammate reported at.
my fault;
Fail? The world would simply not be able to understand the greatness that we created.
Seriously though, I would need the editor again since I deleted all that stuff a while back after wasting all of my time on City Block, Rooftop, and Petrol.Yes, I'm still bitter about that.
I completely agree with this. I think we should drop the silly and unfinished maps to save download space and get new users in the game quicker.
Glass Kill House - Obvious
Monkey Island - I like it but it's always been a pain in the ass
PBall - Only map with the physics mod but it doesn't belong in this game
Pool Day - Could be part of AA if the map was bigger and extended into other areas of the 'building'
Spankyville - Not sure on this one since it's purely offline and demonstrates stuff like physics and AI
Teh Yetis Lair - Old classic but not with AA values
UT04 - Maybe turn this into a training map for clans or just get rid of it?
Just those alone will save 45+ mb extracted and a 15mb download. Perhaps training maps can be removed or an optional download as well? I don't think some training maps work due to hard-coded communications.
It would also be good to take the devs attitude and modify existing maps, going through them one at a time and let the community decide on fixes, improvements, weapon loadouts and anything to do with the map dynamics. Most all the maps in AA were made and then never touched again except for bug fixes. It's about time they're visually upgraded or tweaked with 10+ years of player experience.
My opinion on the map roadmap is this:
1. Get rid of the maps that aren't "AA quality".
2. Remove training maps until a user wants to download them.
3. Combine them all together in one package or split them all up individually. It seems like Assist has 2 dozen different packages to download for maps and it seems unorganized/unoptimized (sorry Jonny & ELiZ...)
4. Start a thread for Border to get ideas flowing and make it the testing ground for revamping existing maps.
5. Sell Assist back to the devs once they want to get AA2 going again.
Keep an eye on them, they do it again, report here. I will ban them all.
Fixed. Don't rely on ImageShack for image hosting, use Imgur instead.
Help keep Assist going. Donate to cover our server costs.
