    Hello Matt, I have a few questions regarding about all this. I've been a member of the console community since 2017 and I have been waiting for an update for over 5 years ever since you guys took control of APB, but kinda disappointed that it came down to this ending. Here are my following Questions:

     

    1. Since I do have multiple accounts, is it possible for me to actually merge all of them into 1 GamersFirst account? I have around 5-6 Characters spread across my accounts and I wouldn't want to have 1 GamersFirst account for each Console account I've had.

     

    2. Will we get some sort of compensation for this happening? I mean we are losing the platform we've been playing on. It was fair for you guys to not do something about this since we technically were 1 Engine Upgrade ahead of PC, while PC had the new content like newly released Weapons, the new car, clothing etc. But now that Console is being shut down what would we get once we first tune in on PC?

     

    3. Personally I've spent more than 400$ on my account, buying account bound weapons and packs such as Juggernaut Pack, Revelations Pack, Key To The City Pack and even some Jokerboxes since they are still around there. I've read that there is some loyalty rewards thing going on, and would my spending count towards it?

     

    4. I am also a symbol designer and sometimes make clothes too, if I switch to PC, would all of it go to PC without any issues or will there be a level of distortion and make me have to rework on the designs on my Avatar, Symbols and Vehicles.

     

    5. Will we get the opportunity for us to get past event items/titles? Like I've pointed out before, we didn't get around 5-6 years worth of updates, so I'd like to know if we will be given the opportunity to get those.

     

    6. Would there be a day where you guys would revive the game back on consoles, but with the new Generation Hardware? I mean it's obvious that I will get slandered on by whatever diehard PC player around here with them saying console is a mistake or whatever. But at the same time console is just more accessible to the community, while also giving the chance that others from there may spend a lot more compared to PC players, since you also said that "Console users spends as much if not more than PC players". I guess it'll take a lot of effort to do rerelease APB on Consoles, but at least there wouldn't be the same drawbacks you guys had with working on 2 different codebases, and would ultimately make the game available for everyone.

     

    That is all, I hope that ultimately everything would turn alright, only thing that we may appreciate is for you guys to turn on Voice Chat for one last time before it's all gone, I guess we deserve at least that while it lasts.

     

    Have a nice day 😁

    Man just plug in the controller into the pc man.

    Banning such applications is something EAC does and not the game, so when you receive an EAC ban, you should contact them, if you contact the game support they will tell you that you should appeal with the anticheat.

     

    EAC can ban applications that modify the game and also applications that can be used to evade the anticheat systems, vpns are one of those.

     

    By EAC alerts I mean that the anticheat detects something unusual and flags the account for investigations.

    What is this Bulldust? You don't work for LO why do you type like someone from customer support?  Please explain the process for everyone and tell us what's wrong with it. https://www.easy.ac/en-us/support/game/contact/appeal/

     

    We already know EAC ban suspicious applications (hacks), and to stop cheaters evading EAC does Hardware ID Bans. You can't say everyone who's using Exitlag or VPN are trying to evade the anti cheat system, when they played on the same hardware ID and has no ban history even with the use of VPN.

     

    Even the Valorant anti cheat (Riot Vanguard) doesn't even ban vpn programs, so what makes you think EAC would ban something like NordVPN or Exitlag.

    EAC bans are automatic, so LO support has nothing to do with that, and by LO rule they don't provide information about bans, you can know that because LO makes the mention that they can't provide information about banning other players, also it is known that vpns can trigger EAC alerts, regardless of people saying it's safe, You should not trust third party apps and especially not one that EAC knows is used by cheaters, and also just because a TGM is banned doesn't mean anything, in the end they are also normal players who applied for the position and are subject to the same rules as EAC or LO and therefore if they use cheats or third party apps they can be banned, just because they are TGM doesn't mean they have protection.

     

    TOS doesn't say anything about using VPNS, program doesn't modified the game, so how does EAC automatic ban you using a known VPN program?

     

    What do you mean by EAC alerts? they are known to use by hackers? There are many players who rely on Exitlag or commercial known vpns to get better latency and routing on NA, besides they merged all players from other region onto NA. I know most of the Oceania player base are using exitlag for years they haven't been banned, even though it may reduce latency but it's better than playing on 260+ MS, yea APB don't support it, LO can't reduce the pings no troubleshoot / traceroute will reduce latency. 

     

    In one case 1 Aussie bee man twitch streamer was banned by EAC who claim it was falsely and was using ExitLag probably to play on EU. My guess is the IP that was assign to him was flagged and LO unprofessional staff manually banned him.

     

    I still believe APB reloaded is still running a free version of EAC its not even in EAC supported game listed nor on banned appeal game list, so how do they appeal for unjustified bans?

     

    Reason why actual cheaters don't get banned.

    Yea it’s strange to see someone who’s been in game for 10 years + not known for cheating ends up banned while few others are still cheating lol classic apb.

     

    I use NordVPN to play apb and I believe most players use exitlag to reduce ping + better routing.
     

    The concerning part is not the program itself but the IP address that they assign you with and if EAC or LO set to flag these previous banned players IP address it may automatic flagged those accounts who are using it legit  

     

    Can anyone in LO confirm this is true?

    Ya thats the norm, 1 gm showing up once a month.

    However lately its been a Trio, Nani is training new ones.

    That have been obviously been taken from the 'Troll Pool'

    So the actions of one, reflect the intent, demeanor of all GM's.

    therefore the entire Pool of GM's and Matt and LO. You follow me. 

    Therefore being the entire list of GM names provided, because

    They seem to only have one job, thats to stop hacusators, 

    which to me is siding with the hackers, protecting them while letting them

    call our mother names, threaten you with sexual battery, and in general watch and let

    what i consider their friends break every behavioral rule in the apb book, and hack, 

    So thus an Army, being the entire GM pool. 

     So the only time this trio come in, they immediately glue themselves to me.

    One will insult me in D chat, while the other whispers me, the third doesn't do much.

    Now I don't which one, and I don't think nani did it, but one of em has a flare gun with 

    a 10 round mag and a macro set around 2ms, which just happens to be the frequency

    that, for me causes seizures.  So now before that it had been 15-20 years since I had any.

    Well managed with medication. I've played lots of video games, operated some of the first

    touch screens ever made via basic old school 60hz monitors, and never had a problem.

    Well I had a problem and ended up smacking my head off a door hinge, knocked out,

    so i got some staples n a scar. GM's say its my own fault for being epileptic and the game has 

    a warning for that. Ya know OK My Bad. But that doesn't excuse the meaness of what they did

    nor the hanging out with known hacks and toxics, and the trollish insults that come from one

    are very similar to a known chat toxic. The one that sits in his starter car, is gold, but never plays

    just sits in some spot and rips everyone in chat.

     So the GM's are guilty by association and the protection they provide to hackers, and the abuse toward

    legit non hackers. Their Sole Job being to stop hacusators and or Mack Bolan.

     Thus the entire Pool of GM's are hired specifically to harass me and or any legit. 

    The same GM harass me before, this incident, So its everytime we see them, they are after me.

    No other time do we see them, then the 'Icing on the Cake was being told to make sure i say

     'in-game' if i talk about killing golds, cuz it could be used against me as if I were making real world threats.

    That Did it. That was it. Far as I'm concerned LO is a Corrupt organization, and No I'm not buying some

    low caliber double priced shotgun to honor them. They have no Honor. 

    You getting old need some meds?

    It does not, it's been tested by actual networking peeps in the past. It doesn't submit anything, it just prints the "your report has been submitted" or w/e message in chat.

     

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Placebo

     

    I've also done extensive testing on it myself over multiple years, and can personally confirm it to be as such myself. It has never changed, and never will.

    You reported yourself? oO

    I want to disagree with the nomenclature. 

    A 'Re-Roll' is when someone pays for an extra character slot, or destroys the character they have, and starts over 

    with a new name. Hence the term Re-roll, cuz they are Rolling up the levels again.

    Some of you may call this an 'ALT'. 

    An Alt to me is an Alternate Account, which was legal at one time, as long as you didn't 

    exploit or trade with yourself. I had an Alt account used to help with a beta test or something.

    Ive long forgotten the passwords.

     However back then I was temp banned by Matt like 3 days. 

    and I used that extra account to mess around cuz i was bored, and someone who 

    knew i was banned said they could then ban the second account if they knew. 

     Again I forgot that account n only run one account with several slots.

    but this brings out a whole new can of worms.

     In the old days games would IP ban people, now with nordstrom or wtf ever ip

    roaming, this would be hard to do to a determined banned player.

     Then there is the concept that, well what if my brother, son, friend who lives in 

    the same place wants to play, What if a whole family wants to play at once.

    So one breaks the rules n gets banned, now whats to stop that person from playing

    on say his Wife, or Son's account?

     p.s. thats if you believe anyone is getting banned anymore, my 2 cent's 

    That’s why they only do hardware ID ban.

    LO should bring back the threat system, all these new players will stay as right now all they are doing are facing gold players and people who are higher level than them. This is making them quit and not want to come back to the game which i understand. However, all the old players that have gone would come back if the threat system was brought back, the game would be more enjoyed by the community. LO did a bad thing with removing the threat system and its not fair on the people who want to enjoy the game but cant due to facing golds, higher levels etc. LO would have such a bigger community if this was to happen. Imo the matchmaking they are working on wont change anything. The other day i was in a group with 2 golds and i vs 2 Trainers, like come on what is that... I know LO are gonna remove my post but they know its because i am right and dont like the truth but it has to be said. Thank you for all you people who play this game and want to enjoy it but cant because of matchmaking and the threat system. ❤️

    Not really,

     

    The old threat system was over a decade ago, no one cares about it anymore, even the engine update didn't made old players continue to play actively and only temporary boost the population during the release. When old players come back and play again, they realise nothing has change, game plays the same, even with the engine update's performance was somewhat a small change which they probably waited for years and game looks the same, there's literally no point in continuing to play again without actual content. This was coming from a friend who played a while back that got me into the game and played with me a day and uninstall because the game was too much of a cringe, he went back to CS-GO.

     

    If LO really want to pull in players, the game needs an huge overhaul so it feels modern some ideas includes:

     

    • Updated UI + Hud + map + inventory (HUD design IS awful + the layout, too much stuff on screen you don't even need, takes up space, map and radar needs to be upgraded feels unfinished)
    • Improve in game performance with basic low configs, game should be running 300fps+ without any dips on high end systems.
    • New Fight club maps
    • New map (midtown) + new contacts and rewards + new rating progression which gives access to players who have reach R195 on an account (This is an end game map for veterans most likely  be playing there. New players can enjoy Financial or Waterfront, if players don't have a R195 on their account, they can purchase a 7- day pass from the JT store. 
    • New pledging system allowing the player's manually pledge to anyone from FN or WF contacts. 
    • Update new player's rewards system each specific rank milestone they should be given a 7-30 days pre mod weapon of choice and 30-day pre mod choice of car. 
    • Update Clan system (having a clan ranking system gives meaning to be in a clan and grouping which shows clan ranking total wins before reset)
    • Update beginners car (give them a race car, not the beetle car)
    • New clothing which are decent.
    • New re-skin weapons which are decent.
    • Weapon balance, buff the weapons that are rarely usable. 

     

    But in the end if they found out only 1 person is working for the game, who's going to actually invest playing again? the current roadmap only have some quality life changes.

     

    The highest momentum of players coming back was the engine update which brought players to play again, which they didn't even do anything during those weeks???

    yes, it was a blanket term used as an olive branch to return accounts back to players that everbody knew were cheating. It is something i would have done myself, if i had taken over APB.  Plenty of players openly discussed getting their ban reversed as a "false ban" despite them actually using cheats. I would suggesst that of all the players "False Banned" 99.9% were cheating in some way shape or form. 

    99.9% were cheating? so you telling me you know 99.9% of the players banned by FF from multiple servers investigated each player's banned? you don't work for Gamerfirst, you are just an average APB player playing their game, you have no way of knowing.

    The reverse un-banned happen in 2018 why do you hold such a grudge against it? they already punish all accounts, including false bans by stripping away JT$ & APB$. It was a good decision by Mattscott to clean up the mess left by tiggs. 

     

    Mattscott is far more competent than Tiggs, think about it? what has Tiggs done over the years for APB reloaded? Nothing but lies and feeding the community with sales after a banned wave, just to milk & fool players like yourself in believing Tiggs did a great job.

     

    I have proof of false banned by FF 2016 MAY, even a video upon login in was met with a banned, apparently the banned reason falls in the category of 'hack' which was BS.  Contacted customer support for a banned appeal Tiggs replied reviewed my account and told me my account will remain suspended. A year later FEB 2018 an email from Tiggs, she had been reviewing some flags that were set previously in Fairfight and identified a false positive, my account did trigger that particular rule set and my account was lifted?

     

    So I was banned on 2016 took a year later to found out it was a false positive? if this was another gaming company I would have been compensated by a lot. Now think of how many were falsely trigger by this rule-set. 

     

    Tigg's lied.

    My quick list for single clothing can be unisex, if need reference I can provide images.

    Also need a change for female body option breast size to have it, so you can reduce the minimal size to flat chest? this allows design/symbols to actually warp better and look better on female clothing tops.

     

    Top:

    • Oversize hoodie up and down (no zip) 
    • Oversize t-shirt
    • Oversize jumper
    • Oversize un-button shirt long sleeve or short sleeve variant.  (*this can be worn over other clothing such as long sleeve shirts)

    Bottom:

    • Cargo pants with suspender straps
    • Ripped Demin jeans

    • Ripped Denim Shorts (F)

    Mask:

    • Half Face Respirator Mask

    • Surgeon mask

     

    Accessories:

    • long Winter Scarf 

     

    Overalls:

    • Demin overall with pants ripped or un-ripped
    • Demin overall with ripped shorts (F)

    (*note Demin overall can be worn over other clothing such as tops and underwear)

     

     

    This needs to be in the game the ultimate urban Ghille suit!

    I can name you multiple players who were "false banned" , all of which were cheating. We know they were cheating after they accidently discussed it openly.  All the legit players i know, no one false ban ever.

    Do you know the meaning of false ban?  

    So some dude claims they were falsely banned and later open up they were actually cheating? That’s not a false ban…  you base your judgement on a few friends who were legit and never been banned meaning no legit gets banned by FF? This is your conclusion???

     

    You were never a victim of a false banned you wouldn’t know, unless it happens to you.

     

    either way the players who were unbanned cheating or not don’t even play anymore so idk what’s your concern if they unbanned everyone previously most of the players had  2nd accounts.

    They were not false bans, they were cheating. They were the equivelent of somebody who does the crime, getting off on a technicality or a mistake on the paperwork. Everybody knew they were guilty, could see it happeneing, but they had done enough to evade the system. G1 simply put the foot down on them.

    I think this is where LO put their foot in it. In offering the olive branch and bringing back the cheaters. They set the presedence of "falsebans" and only using Anticheat to determine who is cheating and who is not. Now we are all left in this situation.

    Matt literally says there were false FF bans and even tiggs manually banned players without any evidence, the reason why Matt had to unbanned everyone because there were a mix of cheaters being FF banned and legits falsely banned. Since legits are being falsely bans they couldn't tell which were the actually cheaters,  customer support don't even investigate ban appeals, if they did it would take a lot of time case by case per player, so unbanning everyone was the only choice of being fair.

     

    So they set Fairfight threshold and if somehow a player trigger's it or flags by playing the game legit without any cheat software and ends up ban its justified? Do some research on APB reloaded and it's history how corrupt GMs were and tiggs, btw it took over the years for tiggs to identified a false positive set previously by FF, which is too late to go through all the ban appeals made.

     

    I was the few lucky ones to be unbanned by tiggs before Matt Scott unbanned everyone, pretty sure she knew she f*cked up before LO took over and started to look into fairfight to cover her tracks. Probably she who manually false banned me who knows?

     

    Being False bans are no good and it hurts the players.
