You do realize APB is a multiple miles of custom code that im pretty sure is only internally documented at best. LO have tried to add some animations to no avail and the character system is unique unto itself. No amount of snorting UE3 documentation is gonna answer questions on custom systems built by a team 20 years ago.

Been asked many a time and the answer will always be no because the social contacts are Unique not just in visual appearance but also rigging. Sofia's boots and garters are the only thing that could be recycled but the rest of her outfit is entirely unusable as characters don't have the rigging required nor the animations. Same goes for Charlotte's skirt. La Rocha's stuff is a bunch of separate parts and wouldn't fit within player customization technical aspects.

For most shotguns, sight mods are moot. It does improve things but not as much as other mods can. Shredder is probably the only shotgun that would be benefiting from RS3 since its movement mods aren't 1.

I think it had 3 nerfs in total but im not 100% on that. The most obvious nerf (to anyone who used the original) is that it now has spread. Originally played more like a DOOM gun but because the producer at the time wanted it to be more inline with other shot guns, it now blooms. It also had a damage nerf at one point but that later got reverted; It might do less damage than it originally did but its still over 900. It may have also had its range nerfed but im not sure, it was always a 10m shotgun on the best of days. Sadly shifted away from this game so i only remember things prior to 2024 so any changes since then i don't know. It was best in its original iteration, thats for sure.

Unless i forgot that something changed, Magpull 2 gives you four rounds and Magpull 3 should give you three, which is why you go with MP2 instead. Core component to using the SG-21 is keeping the last round in so you can shoot 3x and quickly reload 3 rounds and keep shooting. Same logic works with the JG/CSG/Corsair. Also note that Extended mag on tube-fed shotguns is kinda broken so you're getting a stacked reload penalty of the reload itself being longer (per round) and loading more rounds than normal.

The SG-21, S-247, H-9, and AR-57 aren't really based on anything besides some chineseium AR platform. SG-21 should be shooting either 10 or 8 gauge shotgun shells which would mainly be used for building demolition purposes hence their high damage output and clunkyness of the gun. Nope, just run IR3-MP2-3PS3/Tagger and pray. Kinda suffers from the same issue the CSG does in having too many pellets but you straight up just have to stop caring about doing good and vibe with the gun for it to be good. The clunk of it is why its good/fun to use.

Things pretty cracked within its effective range. Though the range cripples versatility which is more what APB is about, imho. Annoying thing is the Corsair was originally meant to compete with Rifles like the CR762 or N-TEC. Whole point in it shooting slugs really but here we are.

What staff even. Only Support can ban and it seems LO has downsized significantly which is why support times have plateaued and/or raised. APB at this point appears to be self running in a sense as LO has no other games and i don't believe they operate off of investors.

Entirely obscure thing but if we merge our accounts, is it possible the console weapon skins could be made account wide? Would be neat to have my xbox weapon skin on PC. Its technically an xbox anyways

Normally i'd look at it like that but the 1.30 thing was... special? Not sure how to word that as consoles are currently on 2.0 and the plan was to do up 1.30 and later port that to consoles. Some may look at this as 2.0 is canceled but 1.30 could still happen.

Perhaps its obvious but for those that want plain text, does this mean that the console port of 1.30 is off the table? Or is the current console 2.0 build just being sunset and the port of 1.30 could appear in the future?

Only trade off here is that it takes R* months to years to fix any vehicle issues, assuming they even bother fixing them in the first place.

Funny thing is Financial and Waterfront are incredibly far apart. Just covering that distance would be the same as making a whole new map the size of Waterfront/Financial.

Not sure where you pulled that info from but Midtown was never half done. RTW started on it and converted it into Financial so there's no Midtown to speak of. Even if it was half done, it would be a few years before we even got it due to APBs ancient tools.

Actually something i mentioned to a dev last month, lol. Likely making it tie into the in-vehicle accuracy modifier and tweaking it for heavy weapons. Heavy weapons, more so AV centered ones, are rather strong when car surfing and they arguably shouldn't be.
