    who's already left/is leaving this game? sadly, it's the people that continued to invest money and efforts into helping support the game. they have had enough of the insanity that is this toxic, vile and unwelcoming online mmo.

     

    and with no changes to the social controls on this game, no engine upgrade is going to save it.

     

    you guys are smart. run the costs/return numbers. this can't go on and on, launch a new engine (taking the game to 2015 level tech) and still hemorrhage money. in the end, no one wants to play a game that doesn't feel fun/fair.

     

    with it's current course of daily operations and management, it's just a matter of time before a final curtain call "we regret to inform you..." post announcing this games closure.

     

    my question is and has always been... will LO take the actual steps needed to fix this? so far, it's hard to see an outcome providing salvation of this game.

    i think there could always be always be adjustments that can be made to better gameplay.

     

    you might be able to achieve a "feel" like you are mentioning without removing them. for example by altering car surfer... so the car can't go more than 15 mph when someone is on it and the surfer has reduced accuracy and reload specs. it doesn't kill anything the game offers, but does add a little more realism and strategy.

     

    small changes like that can have just enough change that the game is more enjoyable without a "hard" change.

    i think this might be the c++ crash error? i get it too.

     

    generally this is created when code called a virtual method from either a constructor or destructor method... which makes sense if it is an exit clean-up routine.

     

    feels pretty harmless in itself but it is annoying every time i quit the game to see it not exit cleanly. and it doesn't do it all the time.

     

    i do want to mention i run a memory cleaning process on windows 10 that helps keep paging under control. i'm not sure if this exit error could potentially leave users exposed to memory leaks or not. something to keep an eye on for sure...

    agree. if you are going to have them, the majority of their time should be in action districts.

     

    also, there is nothing wrong with them being in social to take a break from the gameplay. totally understandable.

    i'd make this post an announcement instead of a thread.

     

    sadly, there's plenty of other places to bash on all things APB within this forum. and, i'd venture 90%+ of the people here won't even buy the items anyway.

     

    btw, good catch. rather wait a week and get the correct items then get it wrong.

    nothing wrong with sharing some frustration with LO. they are a small company with BIG ideas. makes execution tough/slow.

     

    nothing wrong with supporting LO. they are a small company with BIG ideas. good to understand execution can be tough/slow.

     

    customer service does need love

    community needs a bit of a spanking and leadership as it's left to "self-moderate" most of the time

    why? where else would all the people who invest time and money in hacks and cheats be able to play?

     

    seriously though, i tried missions yesterday in citadel. it was absolutely horrible.

     

    bots everywhere.  so many rerolled players who are just there to ruin it for everyone.

     

    constant griefing. people at car renders that just explode and shoot cars as you try to render and leave.

     

    harassment in the chat. toxic things that just shouldn't be going on that create a horrible community experience.

     

    it's not a matter of "shutting off chat". the issue is that this stuff makes a player base of people who are not conducive to the game existing.

     

    it would be nice to see something done about it. the fact you see all the rerolls is a good thing meaning players are indeed getting banned. but they are coming back and just making a mess of things.

    i think i am almost always moving when i shoot. or... stop-shoot-move as synchronous as possible.

     

    and as cookie says, the center of your screen is the center of your screen. know that area well because no matter what, that is the general area of your shot. even with a snubnos. well, sorta 😉

     

    i love the mobility sling and use it on most weapons. some people find it useless but for my play style it works well.

     

    and lastly, some people are good and some people... well they cheat. just the way it is. in the halloween event for example there was a player with 30+ kills using an LMG that shot like a laser. everyone else (full server) was around 4-6 kills. he didn't need to crouch to shoot, etc.  i am pointing this out so you don't get too discouraged when you are experiencing it. just gut it out and play through it to get onto the next round/match.

    interesting topic. this is pretty tricky stuff.

     

    there are so many laws surrounding "freedom of speech"... which i think this would fall into.

     

    it feels LO is likely "safe" as this is not an item you can get without monetary consent. it's not a stock property of the game.

     

    but hey, who knows... i mean... you can buy hot coffee at mcdonalds, dump it on yourself "accidentally" and then get a case into the court system.

     

    i will say if they were shooting for edgy, this armas lineup certainly stands out 🙂

    you might want to go in-game and to the clothing mod kiosk. you can then try to 'buy' it again and see if it might show up in your list of possible items to purchase.

     

    just a little concerned as any of those purchases in ARMAS are NON-REFUNDABLE so it would be worthwhile to be 100% certain.
