That's a bad idea. My honor would drop by almost 30. I didn't make an AAO tracker until years after I started playing AA, and neither did a lot of people, because it wasn't required.
Hey now, this thread is starting to lack drama. Do I need to start banning some random users and start giving myself admin on servers?
I've tested my script on Windows 8CP, it works. The problem is difrent now. PunkBuster dont know windows 8 yet.
That's how many players AA has actually lost.
Well, Assist has been on Sourceforge since 2009, I know it was "Deploy" before that and it wasn't hosted on Sourceforge at first. I would guess that mAAp has been a part of Assist (and thus 2.5) since 2008. If that's not enough time for something to catch on, then I don't know how it would ever catch on. Even if we're talking just from January 2012, that's almost 6 months of it being a mandatory download.
Another "test" I did recently was run my mAAp only rotating server (changing maps every 40 minutes) for 2 days. Guess what? Not a SINGLE user joined it. I checked the logs, twice. I also ran the server twice, once for a day, the second time for 2 days. No users.
I've been in full mAAp servers before, there just needs to be a bit of a jump start to get people to join.
Where were you 4 years ago to tell me this?
Seriously though, I only aimed high because of reception. If I could quantify interest in the form of weights on a scale versus the actual play time, you would see that it's highly imbalanced. There has been so many "yea that's cool dude" and "omg custom maps, sweet!" kind of comments. People seem to think it's a good idea and that's why I invested time but when it comes down to it, those enthusiastic people are off playing Urban Assault. It's either a massive troll or a slap in the face, I'm still not sure which.
Here's the thing though, for the last several weeks, even though mAAp is now mandatory, on average, I only see about 5% of the in-game players on mAAp. At the current max of about 150 players online at the peak play time, that's not even a dozen people. Look, right now at the time of this post, 7 out of 137 users are in mAAp and 3 are on Yeti which is one of the most ridiculous ill-planned skillless maps there is.
Same problem for me.
please help
This is laughable really. I was open to a mod or two at first, or some organization ideas but this... this whole "oh fuck your code and the time you put into it, I can do something better from scratch by jamming pre-made code together" it's laughable.
I'm done with AA, I'm done with this community. I've given way too much to this game and it seems like everything I've put a lot of effort into, everybody shits on it. If you guys want a new site, you better get some web hosting. Whoever wants the AAO25.com domain, I'll be happy to setup some kind of a transfer.
You mean those files matching ".*\.rbp"?
omg, i know ther basic is shity language, but that is amazing.
RESPECT for peoples writing in something like that
