What if false bans never got solved?
magik replied to WorldDominator's topic in General Discussion Archive
Since I didn't read the main thread by MattScott until now, I'll help direct more information that way. https://forums.gamersfirst.com/topic/7694-explanation-of-recent-bans/ So, if you know anyone that's been falsely banned, please refer them to support as that's the sole channel for such requests. For any other information, Little Orbit, and BE have been doing their best to prevent the false flags and false bans by first implementing temporary bans, then settling on their decision prior to a permanent ban. In addition to this, they in fact do allow rerolls of accounts, so long as the new account does NOT cheat. According to the post, if a person owned several accounts, then all concurrent accounts were banned, so not one account was left unpunished. Take the ban as a form of "grounding". You get your time, but you're still allowed back in to play if you'll follow the rules set by the game master. edit: added link to thread for more clarity. -

so far, the current system while appearing a bit slow, is working behind the scenes, hidden from plain view. But again, it appears to be working. If some people have, they've either voiced it on forums, and have been punished for breaking the forum rules. As evident by the big red button above. Or they've brought it up to support, and have had their situation explained. From what MattScott has said in the past, they're doing their best to prevent false flags. So, take that information as you wish. -
INVENTORY WIPED - LF old "- G4B3 Customs" symbols
magik replied to G4B3's topic in General Discussion Archive
Never had this happen to me, but I know the pain of not finding a sold/traded symbol. If I find one, I'll be sure to send it your way. -
It's mine too

I'm curious, what cities are we talking about here?

Ah, was not aware of that change, thanks.

FFBans as stated, run by a third party. Giving any information on who's been banned incites negative reactions towards those people, which, regardless of right/wrong, is bad for: publicity - I'm sure you don't want people seeing your game is "infested" with hackers community - hatred insights more hatred. Since the removal of broadcasts, and shift of FairFight to the background trash can, we have seen much more positive actions amongst players. Go and play in Jericho, on silver Financial, I'm sure you'll see a lack of hackusations, rage, and overall negative emotions.

Bronze District For Years And Years!

Ok bud. Let's go back to High School Junior Year - American Government: Amendment 1 to the United States Constitution: There's a few key terms in here. We're gonna take a few things here that are irrelevant, i.e. anything pertaining to religion, as that does not include anything of relevance to our argument. The first amendment protections only apply to the United States Constitution. Which, for much of the first century of our great nation, only applied to the federal government. State laws were exempt from following the Constitution directly. So, states could pass laws that would be unconstitutional today, as of our interpretation. And in fact, many did. Not exclusively violating the first amendment protections, but other portions of the Constitution. The first word in the amendment is: Congress. The United States of America Congress. This was designated to apply exclusively to the federal government. That is where our arguments collide. You're implying that a private entity, Little Orbit LLC. is required to give you, or acknowledge your freedom of speech. This company, although based out of the state of California, is not required to enforce the Constitution. This document only protects citizens and nationals from governmental overreach. Gaming companies, like Electronic Arts, Activision, and Little Orbit all need to maintain a positive image. That is why the forum rules exist. To maintain order, and a peaceful, location to discuss issues, topics, and off-topics relating to APB, Fallen Earth, and/or other games. If you keep making inflammatory posts, where you do show your disregard for the forum rules, then it is only natural for the consequences of such actions to proceed forth. You agree to all the rules when you create the account, you agree to the End User License Agreement before you play, you even agree to the Terms of Service/Code of Conduct before you can even click login. You can't say you don't agree to such rules when you are here posting on the forums. Here's to hoping that my wall of text didn't scare you away. tl;dr Freedom of Speech is a U.S.A. right protected from the government by the government, not a private third party. -
I think I've only gotten 1 warning since L.O. took over... tbh, it also could've been anything to get you banned too ;-;

weapon balancing should be your top priority
magik replied to Parthian's topic in General Discussion Archive
Sure for those from the good ol' USofA, 20m = 65.6168 feet Not sure about you, but I think a shotgun is still viable within that range... or you know... in game, 1/5 of the range of your view (which is ~100m; if not slightly more) If you're halfway behind a corner, how are they killing you through a wall? We have third person cameras for a good reason. -
God I love that comic Sorry but I'm lost now, please repeat? Please elaborate on what you mean? Little Orbit bringing out drama? Veterans bringing out drama? Because Little Orbit has done quite a bit to reduce said drama. And the veterans... are just well... acting as they we pretty much always have... And most veterans aren't in a position of power...? I guess you have @CookiePuss here who's a SPCT, but that's not really a position of power that brings drama. Little Orbit revived the SPCT to help aid in the further development and testing of the game... I see no drama here... <spoiler> unless you're jelly that someone has that title, and you don't? </spoiler>

Severe issues that -need- to be addressed
magik replied to Virgil's topic in General Discussion Archive
Probably, it worked before, and I forgot which update broke it. So that's probably something that I've forgotten about. If L.O. can fix Vivox and make it work with the new engine, then I have no issue. no need to replace it. -
Hey. Event is over. Now it's time to fix your mess.
magik replied to Mitne's topic in General Discussion Archive
Sure this event had a plethora of issues. But either Little Orbit can honor their word, and proceed to move on, resolving to amend future events. Or they can patchwork this event, and make more people complain with them going back on their word, although still amending future events. I'd rather them do the first. -
Severe issues that -need- to be addressed
magik replied to Virgil's topic in General Discussion Archive
Vivox is trash... sorry but it sucks up cpu clocks and power, while not being used anymore/useful. While I think it's best to play with others, I know very well that is not an option all the time. Best thing would be to change to a new VoIP software. -
Well, we're playing a 2011 Game, best thing is to use hardware from that era or as close to. (2012/13/14 isn't a bad choice if that's the only game you're playing). The game is optimized, and designed to run best on the original hardware. So in this case, less cores, and higher clock speeds are better. Dual cores run this game fairly well afaik. On top of older GPUs. The engine upgrade will be the best thing for this game. not for the performance boost, but for the optimization, and support for newer hardware.

I haven't had any of those Mission bugs occur with me... (And I would prefer the spawns to be fixed first) I agree with most of what's here. Pretty constructive, and spoken not as a doomsayer, like some other threads... Thank you. -
I'm lost with what you're asking then ...

They are? I'm quite sure BattlEye is doing its job. And for the few that do get through, the team is doing everything they can to stop them. What are you talking about? We're doing better than we had under G1. Glad we agree Face what? We already are facing it, and Little Orbit is doing what they should be. What more do you want? Some superficial A.I. that searches for people's intent to cheat on the basis of their eye contact with their monitor, their client actions, and excessive use of the processor that would not even allow the game to run to begin with? How would you feel if your privacy was compromised by the government in your home, to ensure that you weren't making any bombs? Regardless of your rights they did it anyways? Thus is the reason for the privacy policy, and government laws regarding what data can be exploited and not. (You know, like hacking a major corporation and making off with hundreds of thousands of credit card details). You can't inherently prevent every occurrence 100%, but you can mitigate, and deter the 99.9% of issues.
