After 14 years the stats servers from UT2k4 (and after 19 years the one from UT99) are turned off. The stats database will just be erased, at the moment there is no permission to make the data public. That are 33 years from Epics history.
It would be great to keep the data as there are a "few" hours playtime in it. Also for the history of Epic-Games.
How about some numbers?
Today there are 47111148 hours playtime that are ~5378 years nonstop of playing UT2k4 logged on 28391860 matches, with 2886125 different player-ids on 130976 servers with 81130 maps.
Thats a bit more than a few I guess.
So thanks to the wayback mashine there is a snapshot from April 2018. In the six months from that time to now there were ~178155 hours so ~20,3 years played.
And there are 1062 new loggend maps in that time, so ~6 new logged maps every Day.
And the 5034 new player-ids are also nice. As well as the 727 new logged servers.
So Epic thanks for 14 years UT2k4 stats server, but it could last longer. And saving the data would definitely write Epic in the good books of many players. Save them, for the history!
Flak Hi everyone, We are in the process of auditing old servers that are on site at Epic Games Headquarters. While we have no intention of taking the UT99 or UT2004 master servers offline, we will no longer be collecting stat information. This Friday, October 26, we'll be taking the stats database and website offline. Of course, you can continue to play as always. Thank you for your continued support of Unreal Tournament.
