News / Forum Restored
« on: Wednesday, August 20, 2014, 01:54:39 AM »
Sorry everybody. I broke the forum database by restoring a backup from a year ago (I was stupidly trying to setup a cloned site and thought I sent the SQL backup elsewhere but it overwrote the main site instead). AAO25 automatically backs up every 2 days but some important information was lost including some of my own. Shit happens.

On the upside, utroda (Jared) has been working on updating the forum's code and styles to make for a cleaner look and overall better features. Please leave any suggestions you may have.

Feedback & Suggestions / Android Application
« on: Friday, August 15, 2014, 15:44:35 PM »
While I hate Linux and know nothing about developing for Android, I thought it might be fun to learn by making a simple app for AAO25. My question is, would it be a waste of time? Would you guys like to have something like that?

I was thinking a server list, detailed server information, shoutbox, and maybe more.

If you've subscribed to our official YouTube channel, you've noticed we've been uploading quite a few videos on lately. To continue on that note, one video will be posted everyday, showing a tip or trick on different maps of AA. Be sure to watch them, you'll probably learn things you didn't know!

Here is the first daily video,

mAAp Project / mAAp Forest [Beta]
« on: Tuesday, August 12, 2014, 02:14:07 AM »
Some of you may remember a while back, I started a new map called Forest. It was a daytime map then turned into a night map. Long story short, here's the old thread:
http://aao25.com/forum/maap/untitled-forestjungle-map/

The map is now live in Assist. This thread is to serve as a discussion on where to take the map as far as features and layout. There's problems with the map as-is, the trees are crappy and the objectives need tweaking but the basic idea is there. Below is a quick video of the first beta release. Please reply in this thread with any ideas or suggestions for this map.

News / Donations
« on: Wednesday, August 06, 2014, 20:01:31 PM »
As an additional, yet minor, perk of donating, I have setup the Donations box and all Vortex Servers banners to disappear on the forum once you've donated. You may or may not know that Vortex Servers hosts this website as well as several in-game servers and is the official gameserver provider for Assist. I've included more of these banners across the site to help advertise for Nick in exchange for his generosity. Donate to Assist or buy a game/voice server from Vortex Servers, either way you are helping keep this game alive!

News / Account Activation
« on: Tuesday, August 05, 2014, 15:20:50 PM »
Good news for new Assist users. We've setup a system to automatically activate accounts if there are no links to other accounts. This system will send you an e-mail letting you know if your account was activated, refused or is still pending manual approval. Accounts that have no links will be immediately activated to allow new users to get in the game faster. For refused accounts, it means that we detected an account already registered on your computer and it was refused because our current policy only allows 1 account per computer. Pending accounts have partial links that need to be manually verified by an administrator.

Welcome to the redesigned AAO25.com. utRoda has been working hard to make this site easier to use and navigate as well as add features the previous website was missing or didn't implement properly.

Please note that not everything is 100% finished. There will be bugs and issues. If you find one or would simply like to make a suggestion, reply to this thread and be as detailed as you possibly can. Thank you.

Please follow these guidelines when submitting a bug report:

1. Put the map name in the title.

News / Assist v8 Pre-Release Info
« on: Wednesday, January 01, 2014, 20:23:37 PM »
The next version of Assist is planned for release in the next 3-6 hours. To build hype and get people excited, I thought I'd create this thread with some screenshots of the current maps as well as answer any questions you may have about the release. There will be an official news post when the release happens but that will come later. Below are screenshots I just took in-game for the maps to be used on this website, in Assist and in-game. These screenshots are in lossless PNG format without any modification in Photoshop or similar programs.


I've just created a special forum board for AA3 map related talk and bug reports. Please use this forum when submitting suggestions or problems you've found.

News / Record broken, thank you!
« on: Friday, December 27, 2013, 17:00:27 PM »
Not long ago the 2-month old record for most players online at a single time was broken. Today we had 170 players online during the peak.

On behalf of all of us at AAO25, we thank you, the users, for enjoying the hard work we put into the game. You make it all worthwhile. Hooah soldiers!
