    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?

    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

    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.

    - 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.

    The new N-TEC changes are terrible and I hope they realise that. There is no need to nerf one of the most complex weapons to use in the game (compared to basically everything else in the game that is considered meta). The N-TEC has the most complexity of them all. Reducing what you can do once you master it is a bad move.

    EDIT: The N-TEC 5 requires control of many things while almost every other weapon in the game lets you get off with only keeping track of one thing. N-TEC combines tracking, fire rate control (handling bloom depending on range), recoil control and movement + having to be aimed down the sights 90% of the time.

    Most other weapons in the game either have no real recoil, no actual bloom, can be used without aiming down the sights at similar ranges as the N-TEC *cough* OSCAR *cough*.
    I don't think it's the N-TEC that needs to be looked at but things like how the PMG can be used as a sniper rifle sometimes and how stupidly overpowered the OSCAR is in it's range category.

    And as far as jump shooting with the N-TEC goes, I do not see why that should be nerfed. It's already balanced well enough considering the fact that once you jump, you are stuck in a specific arc that your character follows as they fall down to the ground. It's not like we can easily manoeuvre left and right mid-air. The jump shooting is useful to those who can do it correctly and have good enough aim. I don't see the point of nerfing that whatsoever.

    Wow talking about shit opinions from good players

    Yeah was thinking same ... + i dont like how they ruined "IR mod" -18% fire rate :V , so future changes should be -18% range for CJ mod ?

    (Would be better if they add vote topic before eny changes).
    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?

    Bullets will now correctly pass through your vehicle while leaning out the window.


     

    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.

    look at warframe. They still add lots of new weapons, even tho they have more than hundreds of weapons already.

    Game just needs more free content. Especially weapons.
    My suggestion would be to add all weapons from events to everybody, including newcomers. Then add an option where you can buy permament guns for in game cash, and lots of new weapons for cash. Because right now, every content that has been added was trough ARMAS. 
    Are you Stalin under disguise? Go easy with the communism my dude, LO has to make money somehow

    Wait, why can't I send weapon from a character to another via mailbox anymore? (Same account ofc).

    I did it like 3 days ago, now it's not possible anymore 😞

    I just sent a legendary to a different character without issue. What error are you getting?
    Nvm, eventually I sorted out. If you just traded, you can't even switch weapon between characters. Kinda frustrating tbh.
