I honestly have troubles understanding what's tracer effects, since I've only been playing for about 4 years. Mind explaining to me?

WOW WOW HOLY MOLY THIS IS SOME GALAXY BRAIN SHIT RIGHT HERE

Hello everyone! Some of you guys know that I love sniper rifles in general and I love how good NCR Anubis and Oblivion are now that LO put their hands on them (meanwhile SBSR-IRS still crying on a corner lol). This has made me think that, with enough differentiation, it's possible to carve a niche in the meta for every weapon in the game, despite being so many of them. To me, a big issue is how bad the N-HVR Reaper is compared to the Sitting Duck counterpart. Poor thing has less range and less diversity on his open slot that most of the times translates into higher TTK because of Reaper's incapacity to use CJ3. It's really sad to see such a cool/edgy legendary being outshadowed by a friggin' plastic duck, lol! So I was thinking: would an insane jumping accuracy, similar to 2012 Scout, be enough to make it viable? Right know Scout is already pretty damn accurate when you're in the air, but it's only really effective within 30 metres or so, it's very luck reliant outside of that range. I've heard a lot of veterans wanting jumpshooting back and honestly it does sound fun to try. Plus, Reaper has plenty of drawbacks so it wouldn't be broken/hard to play against at all. Lemme know your opinions ^^ (and please be polite)

Farm a lot of money if you wanna buy legendaries. Playing FC/ram raiding greatly helps if you're looking for this. Create symbols that you can use/sell since your cap of usable object is 4 times higher. Customize your character/car for the reason above. But most importantly: never get off APB unless your house in on fire or a relative is about to die

Gotta say I completely forgot about LTLs since I find them boring and never use them. I guess they would have to addres this issue since they only hotfixed the server crash thing. But I still think it's doable, they've shown creativity in this regard. I completely agree with you here my dude, but your statement reminds me of that scene in The lord of the rings, where Gimli says "Never thought I'd die fighting side by side with an Elf", and Legolas answers back "what about side by side with a friend?" It's hard times for APB, and we gotta stay unite for the greater good!

Iirc they said that Fight Club is gonna stay so eventually they should address the issues it has. Just done playing for today, same situation happened. At some point it was a 20 vs 9 game lol

I like to consider myself a Baylan Shipping veteran, since I've been playing there only for a good year now. And during this time, there's one thing I noticed: here in Citadel, most of the time Criminals are on the receiving hand, making playing crim side hard mode Fight Club. (oh I'm an enforcer main so this post is not for whining lol) Not only that, but a lot of the time the teams are extremely unbalanced: 20 Enfo vs 9 Crim, or half silver team Enfo vs almost full gold Crim. Not to mention that this also causes a lot of people to switch faction and make things even worse for the weaker team. The recent Halloween event has made me think that maybe we should treat Fight Clubs differently than regular districts and put a matchmaking system that creates 2 balanced teams at the start of every match, without distinguishing between Crims and Enfos. That way everyone has a chance to win, and you don't start with an immediate disadvantage because you're on the wrong faction. Do you think this solution would work?

I'm not sure it's gonna work like this. But yes, you can be my friend anyways :]

I wanna get the Butcher skin so badly but I'm also bad and I have a bad pc. Sad time.

Please lock this cancer thread already. Not only the discussion is nonexistent, but the broken english in giving me literal AIDS. Learn English, then you earn the rights to complain (politely).

LOL time to try it

Why is SBSR IRS priced the same as freaking N-HVR 762? And also why are the Norsemen weapon more expensive than the other SMGs while being probably the worst SMGs thenselves? I get what your classification cryteria is but I really do not agree with it. Each weapon from the same cathegory is more or less effective, more or less niche. Trying to ignore this fact is plain wrong imo. Btw I do love the new site, it feels much more clear and usable. Just fix your pricings please, they're better than G1 ones but still pretty far from good

"Last week"? Dude all this issues have happened for the past 4 years lol

No way it's only 47 metres, unless the dropoff makes it like it takes 2 more shots to kill at 100 metres and u still die in 3 bursts Man fuck RFP

Same here. I was very curious but it seems like I gotta wait a bit more

APB is gonna be unplayble until they find a good way to balance IR3 out. I'm out until I see a good solution lol, I fckin hate NTEC and OBEYA already and I dont want to see them getting even stronger

Imma not play this game for a while then. I just hate the free 7 metres bonus some weapon get, especially for what concerns NTEC. That weapon is already stupidly powerful enough without having more range in the first place. I bet you were one of those fagg*ts complaining about HVR QS lmao

- Why did Little Orbit unban all these cheaters? / Demo version of BattlEye / Ineffective anti-cheat / Matt said he wont ban anyone Tbf I think people have really short memory. Back to Mayb 2018, this game was literally a cheatfest and your best friend in APB could be a wallhacker and you didn't know. I feel like LO's policy of avoiding to mention cheater, and thus negating them their moment of celebrity, is actually very effective in stopping many players from cheating. This comes with the drawback of playerbase not knowing numbers and names, and since APB is full of crybabies they'll find anything to blame rather than blaming themselves. Cheating in games has always existed and always will, there is no 100% foolproof way to prevent someone from cheating in a game. I am personally very ok with the cheaters policy you guys have adopted. - Why hasn't Little Orbit fixed the Matchmaking system? / Threat needs to go back to the way it was / De-threaters That's a big issue, but I'm assuming you guys want to prioritize Engine Upgrade in order to open up more solutions to matchmaking/dethreating. While I understand your thought process here, this is imo one of the biggest reason why APB miserably fails in attracting new players, as they'll get stomped without any mercy by a bunch of assh*les that can't git gud at all. Once engine upgrade comes out, make sure to fix this whole thing asap, because it's very important. - Why did Little Orbit do the Weapon Balance? / Shotguns suck / IR3 changes are garbage As I stated above, people love to complain and hate changes. I died because I tried to outrange an OBIR with NTEC? "OMG IF I STILL HAD MY IR3 I WOULD HAVE KILLED THAT LOSER, CURSE YOU LO". That's the thought process most people make. I'm not a big fan of shotguns myself but I see a lot more of them running around and now I'm legit scared when I see one, it's no longer a russian roulette of you being dead to 2, 3 or 4 shots; and I've never seen someone complaining about shotguns for being bad in the last weeks. I think they are fine. Speaking of IR3, this change is universal and drastic. Universal means that it affects the metagame as a whole, and drastic means that the change is very noticeable. It's perfectly normal that some weapons end up getting the short end of the stick imo, that's the very definition of a metagame change. Some weapons totally did not deserve that (STAR LCR is still crying in a corner), some definetely did (lookin at u NTEC), but I think people will eventually adapt and stop complaining. Overall tho I'm happy that now weapon don't get a free +7 metres range buff anymore, but it comes with a real downside that makes you think twice before slapping that red mod anywhere. - Why isn't Little Orbit listen to me? / Why is Little Orbit listening to people that don't know what they are talking about? LMAO do I really have to discuss this? I mean come on, this game is PEGI18 afaik and children shouldn't be allowed to play.

Wow talking about shit opinions from good players

All this mess for a pair of whack police lights... Everything related to police in APB is very cringey, you should be thankful that something stopped your account from being disgraced by that sh*t

Why bring up a 2 weeks old thread? Esp now that shotguns are no longer broken Jeez dude u're a child CJ has a real downside, plus the benefit it provides isn't nearly as close as old IR. Not to mention that, if they "didn't listen to the playerbase", we would have a -21% fire rate with a +12 effective range. Thinking before typing is too hard huh?

Tbh, this "feature" was actually really good. ^This. At least those huge vans with loads of HP and the ability to carry 3 shooting players inside them now have some kind of weakness. God I hate those cars.

Isn't the custom central dot bannable? lol

Are you Stalin under disguise? Go easy with the communism my dude, LO has to make money somehow

Happy Birthday dude!
