Hey everyone,

As you may have noticed, some of you have recently experienced issues accessing the forums. The good news is that a fix has been implemented, and if you’re reading this, the forums should be working properly again.

Additionally, you should now be able to post messages to the shoutbox via the Assist website.

If you encounter any issues, unusual behavior, or unexpected problems that might be related to these changes, please reply to this thread so we can investigate.

Thanks, and see you in-game!

Did you register an Assist account (here)? The account you use to login to the game is different than your forum account.

Also, ensure you are logging in with the username you registered, not your AA2 In-Game Name.

General Chat / Re: Convert Shotguns from 285 to 25Assist
« on: Saturday, May 25, 2024, 10:50:57 AM »
Am I hallucinating or is there a shotgun mod floating around for 2.5 Assist?. I seem to recall seeing a few servers running it and perhaps even playing it here and there over the years but I can't say for certain. I'm also not sure if there is a difference between the mod and 2.8.5, but figured I'd throw that out there.

Game is indeed still kicking, yeah  :style:

Assuming you registered your account here, correct? https://auth.aa25.org/register/

Make sure that you're signing in with your UserName, not your AA2 In-Game Name as that would be your display name in-game. If your account isn't activated, it should state as such when attempting to log in. If it is saying your username doesn't exist, it is likely incorrect credentials.

I haven't worked on the tracker in some time due to needing a break but in response to this incident a few ideas popped into my mind to ease myself back into some work before I begin tackling some overdue plans.
I feel like this sort of thing is relatively uncommon, but on the odd chance suspicion arises in the future I've added a few tools that will hopefully help spot this sort of thing (at least to the point it can be brought to a Assist administrators attention for a proper investigation).

Searching for a name will now consider previous display names. The current name will be displayed along with an asterisk which when hovered will display a tooltip with the matching alias.


If a players name history is longer than 10 names, you'll be able to load the entire (tracked) history in increments of 10.


Finally, you're able to filter match history by matches played with another player. In this example, matches with both myself and Mr_Gunman-GB are being displayed rather than just my personal match history.

Hi,

Just to inform you, that Chavez is banned for at least 2 weeks from full assist for ghosting with 2nd acc
What he did was use a laptop or something at the pc next to him. I confirmed it was played from the same IP. He then either moved with his own account or the other, ghosting for one of them. Usually he used his 2nd acc as a free kill to ensure that he can then ghost for his 1st account.

To verify, I joined a few games to really see if this was happening.

His 2nd account was: https://aatracker.net/player/w0rk_f0rce%5BxD%5D

Both accounts are now banned. As you see in the match history of work force, it is also already quite suspicious how one always dies a lot and exactly those sessions he has a very high fragrate.

I consider this case closed. He didn't use any 3d party programs, but doing this in general is sad, doing it on this small playerbase is pathetic.

As the tracker UI only displays the 10 most recent player names for any given profile I figured I would point out that upon inspecting the full name history list (which can be viewed via Chrome dev tools, the 10 most recent is client side for UI purposes) it does appear that the player in the original video on TomGunny's team was the same account.

This can happen from time to time through no fault of your own. Sometimes a server administrator will notice quickly and remove the ban, but otherwise you should be good to go as soon as it expires.

it doesn't work becouse i need to be offline into a server and once i load the offline map i can't move or do anything, that sucks wish there was a way to practise offline

Give yourself a weapon (class r, etc) when you load into a map offline and you should be able to move about.

So this is the reason why people stopped playing Hospital on Assist?
I have been wondering for a while why such a popular map is not played anymore.
I didn't realize that there was changes in weaponry and thought that this community just doesn't like it anymore.

I really miss playing Hospital like back in the old days. Is there something we can (or devs want to) do about this?
#ICareALittle :) Thanks

This post got me curious as my impression was that Hospital was one of the more popular maps to this day. I ran some numbers and it would appear that SF Hospital is the second most popular map played across all tracked servers (which is pretty much all of them, anyway) only surpassed by Pipeline SF (which checks out).

Top 4 time played (As of 02/02/2024 since April 2023)
SF Pipeline: 2362 hours played
SF Hospital: 1901 hours played
Urban Assault: 1326 hours played
SF CSAR: 958 hours played

Anyhow my opinion is that it is preferable to prioritize taking out one individual with a projectile weapon vs everyone that has a C class, but at the end of the day I'll play Hospital with or without 203's so it doesn't matter much to me.

From what I gather the change happened nearly a decade ago, my question would be even if the vast majority of remaining players were in favor of the return of 203s (remains to be seen) is there anyone left with the know how to make that change?.

I may be wrong, but a it may be couple of thousand matches in the global sense, not in the sense of one user.

PS: Just speculation. But a way to do it when trying to limit scaling.

Yup, this is correct. Two thousand most recent matches across all tracked servers are retained. A users match history will reflect their activity within those 2000 matches.

Hi!

This isn't really Assist related thing but I wanted to give a little feedback/shout out to the AATracker dev for making our experience a bit more pleasant once again :cool:

I was going to write some day and ask if there is any way to see exact stats from older matches than those in one's Recent Matches list. I'm very fond of one special match of Pipeline I played a while ago and sadly I didn't remember to take a screenshot of the stats page of that match in time. It was lost from my Recent Matches list.

I just went to check on AATracker page if there is anyone playing and surprisingly there was a button called "Load More Matches" on my personal stats page. I could bring up all my matches since the Tracker has been tracking my rounds! Nice!

Are all those specific match statistics kept indefinitely in the database or are they somehow summed up (after some time or some number of matches) to keep the database size in control?

Both Assist and AATracker are beautiful things! Thank you devs! Please, keep up the good work :style:

Hey!

Thank you for the kind words. I finally managed to get around to allowing more match history to be loaded last night so it is awesome to see someone noticing, appreciating and providing feedback so soon. I really appreciate it!.

Unfortunately in this case you're correct that match statistics aren't held indefinitely. Specifically, the most recent 2000 matches are kept with the oldest falling off when a new one has started. This typically means a match will remain in a player / servers history for 1 - 2 months depending on how active the game is. I may look at increasing this number if possible, perhaps to 4000, if I am able.

I also agree with you about Assist. I'm very glad we can play this game in 2024. See you in-game!.

The original AA experience died since the start of assist... they decide now.

What would remain of the original AA experience if not for Assist? Grainy 360p YouTube videos with no ability to actually play the game?.

Custom maps existed when the army ran the game, as did the ability for server owners / admins to swap to them. Seems to me the most notable difference is accessibility seeing as several custom maps ship with the game so players have the option to stay or leave (as opposed to not being able to load in at all) should the server switch to a custom map.

Finally, the game released 22 years ago now (or thereabouts?). It's no surprise that returning players would want to play the maps they are most familiar with. Conversely, it comes as no surprise that some players who have stuck around may prefer some variety. Rather than advocating for the removal of choice, I would suggest taking initiative and trying to seed one of the many empty servers on a 'classic' map or firing up a server where you can control the map choice. (If memory serves you have a Pipeline exclusive server, anyhow).

As for poorly performing, I mean.. it's 2024 and the game runs well (arguably too well) on modern hardware. Most maps will perform fine on integrated graphics which can't be said for most 3d games of today.

If you don't mind, I'd love to re-invent the website style. That is if you trust me with your site. I understand if you do not.

That could be cool!. The frontend code is a bit of a mess to say the least and I've been slowly starting to clean it up a touch haha send me a message on Discord and we'll chat?.

It's been a moment since I've provided any updates, however more has changed than I am able to quickly summarize here (I've neglected the forums in favor of posting quick updates to the Discord server).

The first, and most notable of which, is a significant UI overhaul. I still do not claim to be a web designer to any extent, however it was time to dedicate some time towards making the presentation of stats more palatable.


Secondly, alias history is live. (Very much inspired by Steam's implementation of the same feature).


Each server on the servers page now displays 10 most recent matches on that server


And finally, the homepage has been made a touch more lively by including the 5 most recent matches across ALL tracked servers, as well as a server list preview (sorted by player count descending when applicable). A new background service to reduce the wait time when querying servers has made this possible. There are still some kinks to work out, however I will note this change is specific to the website itself. The tracking application has a vastly more forgiving retry policy / timeout threshold so a "far away" tracked server appearing offline does not indicate that it is not being tracked.(I do hope to address this in the near future).
It's also snowing to help drum up the holiday spirit.


A few other small changes (made some time ago) likely not noted elsewhere in this thread:
- If you want to add your server to the list of tracked servers, you can do so via the Servers page.
- Each server displays a flag corresponding with the country it is hosted in.

Happy Holidays everyone!.
