I was going to post a meme, but it looks like the fucking fourm admins have also taken that from me. becasue they have a strict no fun policy also some ***** sucking shitbag has been driving up and down my street playing bass boosted music for 2 and a half hours and i', getting FUCKING pissed -
See the issue with custom maps has always been you get really cool fun maps, or you get something like "finanl center park, but long" and it's just the middle park section of fin but 250 times longer Skins would be the same, 100% someone is slapping a wiener skin on there guns

assuming i'm silver is funny. when i'm not stuck up against cheating clans and other players such as yourself i can play decently. it also depends on my teammates. Some of you people would get lost in a hallway, and others of you could not hit the board side of a barn standing inside of said barn with the doors closed - Yesterday

Ketog started following Wave Lounge - The Hypermetrics Contest 🤓📊 - 2026 Edition
-
Event powered by Wave Lounge ! Hey, Ketog from Wave Lounge here, welcome to yet another Wave Lounge event, this is the thiiiird edition of the Hypermetrics contest, the last one was yet another year ago ! Hopefully you enjoy participating in the this third edition of the FPS contest! The Hypermetrics Contest This event is pretty simple and straight forward, it's how we do it at Wave Lounge, the goal you might ask ? Get the highest possible FPS in APB, that's it, that's the event, yup. All you have to do to win is reach the highest possible FPS in APB with a few rules: 1) You must provide a complete screenshot of your game with performance metrics (any overlay of your choice) 2) You must be in an online district (yes social and fightclubs do count), that means no login screen trickery 3) For your first submission, you must specify whether you're competing for the prize or not, you cannot change your choice afterwards. The rules are subject to change if some player finds a loophole, so we take the right to change the contest's rules to keep it fair, and give the win to the player that actually deserves it. The event will run from the date of which this post is published, up to the 8th January 2026 What can i win and how do i participate ? The rewards are located on Citadel (EU), you can participate if you're on NA, i however, won't be able to provide any rewards. The winner with the highest FPS score will get ALL of the following: - 100 069 APB$ (sorry i am broke and cannot play apb anymore because GFAC broke linux compatiblity) - Mystery Theme - OCSP 'Kommandant" Diamonds The prize might increase as we get sponsors from other clans and/or donations from players, If you wish to donate to the cash prize, please message me on this forum or on discord @Liarus If you wish to participate, you will have to either join our discord and submit your screenshot in the submissions channel or DM me said submission (@Liarus), for me to take it into account, your submission will then appear on the leaderboard, the prize will be given to the competing player with the highest score, note that you can submit as many times as you want until the end of the event ! Tips So you might be wondering "how do i achieve such a high FPS that isn't possible! Well here's a few tips so you can stand a chance against other competitors: - One of the few most significant settings are to use a no GC config, Double Buffering ON, and disabling the UI - The second one, is to go somewhere where the map is rendered as little as possible (exemple, back of the social district) - Third one, is to use OTW, yes Open Test world, which is currently publicly open, so you have no players loaded - And last, things that can help is running at a lower resolution, having a debloated system, overclocking for single core performance. As an extra little note, I'm still planning on running this little contest every end of the year as a fun way to gather performance metrics related to APB over time. Have fun tweaking, breaking, experimenting with APB, there is no other rules other than what's currently listed, however stay up to date with this post for the latest news!

Yes, Happy New Years to all and a Merry belated Christmas. Looking forward to a prosperous and populated APB in 2026. Concerning the unauthorized use of San Paro's municipal vehicles .... our "Municipal Vehicle Enforcement" team has been more aggressive in halting and preventing these activities, per former Mayor Jane Darren's inception of the City Securities Act. (this video has been restricted in some countries due to certain vehicle driving regulations) -

Modding has kept games like Skyrim alive FOR YEARS so it wouldnt be a bad idea, since modders do the devs work but free

MACKxBOLAN replied to raging's topic in Social District (General Discussion)
Golds / cheats use 'Gas Lighting' as a weapon. secondly, Most of the in chat hacusations are coming from known hackers. which is hilarious to Mack. You cannot disqualify the average legit, or average scoring player, when the MM, LO, Hackers, Golds manipulate the threat system to screw legits or lower threats. @MattScott You cannot dismiss the hacusation of the experienced veteran Legit only based on numbers of an algorithm. Its akin to the Bean and Bullet counters of the Vietnam war, You're not there. No player is gonna be perfect aim perfect score always win, never miss. Your bean counter doesn't consider the players in game experience. All the hackers use that gas lighting as an excuse, and when they do this, it simply proves the idea to the legit or hacusator. You know to start off with the hacusator already thinks the hacker/alleged hacker is dirty. So his word is already no good, unbelievable. So when they start with the 'You must be Bad' it simply incriminates them further. And Yes Mack see's hacking as crime, They are stealing my rewards and fun. And have zero love for the Role of cop or robber game. Ya know, if they were that 'Gud, had that ultra precise aim, why are they playing a bottom of the barrel game like apb. We still have packet loss yes, and it would seem to me the AC is off because of the amount of golds playing. -

I must say to you guys a statement my master taught me at a young age. It has been the most important piece of knowledge in positively impacting my life(I just wokeup in a palace my pockets are so big and green). The quote is as follows "Silvers do not have the credentials to hackusate." -Prime MCD Please reread this quote in southern Somalian, as I have. - -
MCD IS TAKING A NEUTRAL STANCE ON THIS POST! I agree with OP, Waterfront is better than Financial. -

Yapopal replied to MageLO's topic in Social District (General Discussion)
I described the general situation in the game. I explained the essence of the failure. Explained why this game has such a bad reputation. Explained why the population is declining. I don't understand why you're explaining the obvious to me. I don't strive for victories and I don't complain that someone is playing better. My goal is to develop the project, improve the quality of the game, eliminate a bunch of bugs, and restore the population. Evaluate the current situation: The developers have spent months of work on creating inter-district segregation, anti-cheat, fuc.. escalation, and streamer mode. Money and time have been spent, but nothing comes out. All these new developments were brought to the table by "professianal" players. They did not affect the attractiveness of the project in any way, they added a new batch of bugs. In most cases, the stream of this game will be anti-advertising. No one is interested in looking at a blockhead in blurred textures. Tell me, is it worth listening to professianal players after that? Anti-cheat has banned cheaters (silvers who think they are the smartest), but it has not eliminated the problem with a bad reputation. Because the new matchmaking continues to mix "professianals", and as you called them, casuals (who make up the majority of the gaming community). Inter-district matchmaking should aim to place players in different copies of districts, focusing on their skill level. Instead, the players got loading screensavers and the same unbalanced matches. I don't see a fix for the problem here, but rather the addition of new problems. One of them is escalation. It is beneficial only to "professianals". And it is a source of pharma. It breaks the structure of missions. Everything that has been added to the game lately does not make it better, on the contrary, the game is getting worse. Visually, this can be assessed by looking at the "new car" and taking a ride on it. A schoolboy-level job making a car mod in GTA SA on Saturday evening. Another problem is that after adding new features, they don't try to bring them to mind for many months. -

Ratio wise, PUBG has more cheaters, yet it still holds onto it's playerbase. Few people play APB because they can't just hop in and play. There's too much grinding to get to a point to where you're able to play. Casuals can't customize because they can't unlock customization, because LO still haven't fixed the random mission rewards being blocked by joker tickets. They can purchase a $100+ bundle on Armas, but that doesn't unlock some clothing that's locked behind faction members. Competitive players can't reach their true potential without grinding 1000s of hours. Purchasing the weapons isn't enough. You need in-game cash to buy mods. Each balance patch is a gamble if your favorite weapon gets buffed or nerfed. Same is true with PUBG, but at least you can grab any weapon off the ground. You don't need to have it unlocked first. The above is true if there are even new players trying the game. Most streamers play at low resolution with modified files. Some openly cheat and pretend it's the aspect ratio. Who's going to see that and think it looks fun to play? Myself removes the color filtering just to make it bearable to look at. Everything has this weird blue tint. It's like whoever did the last shader changes has Tritanopes, a form of colorblindness that can't perceive blue. Or maybe they just never been outside, and think sunlight = orange, and night = blue. -

sweetLemonade replied to MageLO's topic in Social District (General Discussion)
Maybe because the previous management (RP, from Revoemag to Tiggs era) has not listened to a single complaint that his game has had for 13 years now? You can look at Youtube videos of this game in 2013 and now, it's the exact same game. No community hosted events, no visual change, no map changes, no severe gameplay changes to better the balancing, no proper competitive & casual crowd separation... There is 0 incentive to grind in this game whatsoever. It's wasted time. Completely false. All 3 eras of this game (RP, Tiggs & LO) have been plagued with no feedback taken from veteran community players. But, I cannot convince you otherwise as you're clearly unable to comprehend that someone can be better than you Such is life in games without a separate queue for the competitive & casual crowd.
