    okay bois @SquirrelFace@404  never expected to be disputed on such case, but here we go then

     

    apb reloaded resolution 101

     

    Recoil consist of two things: vertical/horizontal range and shaking.

     

    As my lovely biscuit mentioned, shaking is pixel based, and this is a huge deal for all kind of weapons, from for example rough 45ap (which recoil and shaking kick hard) to machine guns 

    This is the reason why many guns feel way smoother on low reasolution than on normal fullhd.

     

    But okay, this is minor advantage, recoil is the same, case closed huh?

    But then aspect ratio kicks in.

    No one plays on lowres because they have 4:3 monitor in 2020, or with black stripes on the sides, right?

     

    Graphically, this is how the exact same pattern look on different resoultion

    if you bring it into a more visual form, this is what we get

    Basically, it's 25% reduced vertical range, distance on which you have to move your mouse to compensate recoil it is quarter shorter. For game like apb it's huge advantage.

     

    About aiming convenience, it's even easier to explain, It's just goddamn easier to track the hitbox if it's wider, angles has nothing to do with it

    So basicaaly, in-game recoil range stays the same, but on your screen it's lower and you moving your mouse less

     

     

    more than that, our apb esports community derived the formula of perfect resolution for every gun in the game (yes, different resolution suit differend weapons better)

    and i'm not even kidding.

    The point is, players left because of the massive cheaters, not because of the graphics in the game. 

     

    Making the game look better will never bring people back

     

    You miss the whole point of engine upgrade, how game looks is last (and least) point of it.

     

    Do you research before whining

    Most people left because other competitive games don't have as many issues. Popular APB streamers play at 800x600 res, some even lower, just to get the game to not stutter so bad.

    This one may come as a suprise but they play on such res not to improve game's performace, but because of norecoil bug and cuz on lower resolution it's easier to aim

    When I work on my montages, I select suitable footage very meticulously, according to a lot of criterias. The problem here is that because of it I keep stacking huge amounts of extra footages that just aren't good enough and wasting huge amount of storage on it.
    This video is no exception, but just deleting everything that didn't make its way to final timeline would be even more of a waste so I decided to compile some of the leftovers In a separate video.

     

    Enjoy <З

    everytime i have trialed the oscar i can never get it to be high firerate... whereas with a carbine i can easily spam it. maybe just takes more practice idk

    oscar is never 'bout spamming dude

    it's actually closer to obir then to carbine

    Nice thing you got there, thanks for sharing.

     

    I didn't find some guns in there, like Oblivion & Corsair which are weak in my opinion, I've also neglected a few guns I'm not familiar enough with.

    FFA I'm assuming it's Bullshark, I'd treat the R&D III as Obir.

    This one is pretty accurate actually, expept for trouple maker and cap-40 In my opinion

    First one is not as OP as it originally was (thanks god), but it's still decent enough to be 1 tier higher

    While cap-40 is a more tricky case, Sergeant is pretty poitless with its modification but 2-slotted version is on point with oca or maybe just tiny bit weaker

     

    About oscar, luckily it's game breaking in a right pair of hands, for average players it's uncomfortable and weird

    Na dude. the cr-5 is totally p2w

    thats freaking wierd, R-2, cr-5 and n-tec always been literally the same

    and r-2 is still the exact copy of n-tek for sure, if cr-5 is different I'm gonna be surprised, haven't touched it in few years

    gonna try it out

    what can i do?

     

     

    Dowload APB Advanced Laucnher and adjust these 2 settings.

    The higher you set them (to the right) - the better symbols will look on clothes and cars

    Try the advanced launcher. There is an option called "primitives" or something. Max it out

     

    This is not the solution, "Primitive textures" seems to control either nothing or nothing.

    if only we had a whole forum section for stuff like this

     

    that said, i didn't like the song choice so i didn't make it all the way through the video

    I usually post all my stuff there and do it regularly, no need to be sarcastic

    This time video is just an addition to main post and reinforcement of my words, not its main purpose

     

    About the song choise, thats understandable, next time maybe I'll do something for a wider audience, this one is more personalized ^_^

    If it works such as commands like /abandonmission you should be able to bind it by editing the APBInput.ini file. For example, I bound my /abandonmission to F1 by changing: Bindings=(Name="F1",Command="OpenAPBSupportPage invalidURL",Group="UI",bAllowInScaleformUI=True) to this here: Bindings=(Name="F1",Command="abandonmission")

     

    Maybe an edit like this is worth a shot.

     

    ur da mvp !

    was binding such commands via my keyboard software, didnt even consider apbinput for some reason

    why do you need to change something that the developers do not consider necessary in the changes ?

     

    They actually do, that's why setting in 2.1 are way wider than in current version. And extended apbinput options are coming there as well (toggle sprint ftw)

    So nah, this is not bannable, at least for now. Apb settings are outdated and the fact that players found all the ways to fix it is a good thing.

     

     

    Afterall, i feel like command keybinds is a good idea for futher apb updates, after 2.1 of course.

    Two months ago I posted a topic discussing whether coming back to apb is worth it and sharing a video that I brought together from old clips during quarantine. Eventually I did come back without any expectations and suddenly stayed, playing regularly during these 2 months.

     

    Some context: I’m playing apb since 2012, and I used to take breaks from it (as everyone else), but It’s always been only for a few month, while this time I left the game entirely for long 3 years, without any desire of coming back.

     

    And even tho after long 3 years not much has changed and game is generally the same, for some reason I’m actually enjoying it like never before.

    There are of course some flaws, strange decisions and straight fails (like yesterday’s beta), but overall I like the route LO is taking, meeting difficulties with honor and openness, not hiding behind the wall of silence.

    It’s especially contrasted for me, considering the fact that I left the game on the peak of G1's carelessness and game's despairing condition.

     

    I’m very grateful that the game got picked up by devs that actually care about it and about Its players (or at least it feels like this), I see how community’s mood is changing. So I just want to say thanks to new team and to all the players who are stiil here.

    For the first time since 2013 I actually feel like this game has a future.  I fell in love again.

     

    in addition, there was many criticizing comments to that quarantine video from people who expected to see my old styled videos again.

    So this time I decided to put together some new clips keeping my familiar vibe in it but leveling up video’s quality and overall style. ngl It was kind of a work (editing took me way more time than usual), but I'm happy with the ending result, and hope you'll enjoy it too;

     

     

     

    Love ya’ll ❤️

    It's not the engine doomed apb, g1 did. If they have released new engine in 2014 (like they originally promised), or okay 2015, or even 2016, that would be fine.

    But instead of this they stretched the developement for long 4 years, and i still believe that at some point they completely stopped it an decided to release the game on colsoles and milk the shit out of it without any interactions with playerbase, saying that they are doing something from time to time.

    What LO doing now is finishing what must be finished and actually ressurecting the game.

     

    But enough of thess lyrics, there is actually the other side of the coin

    New engine is not only about optimization or slightly better graphics, its also about content creation.

    Engine update will facilitate the process of game expansion for developers. I remeber blogpost 'bout that, dont think i'll be able to find it now, but the main idea from there is: "apb's code is a mess (you must be naive or new to not be aware of that) that extremely difficult if not impossible to edit, expand, or troubleshoot, new engine will fix that with new ground-up code"

    We really need some type of profiles or favorites in weapons menu. some type of vapensotering is needed plz

    There IS a "vapensotering ". When you are changing your gun you can choose a type in invetory to show only rifles or only shotguns and such. For me it's enough (and i have like 50 guns on my account).

    Dunno whats the point here.
