It's cool, here's what she really looks like under the mask though. Darker complexion than I expected. -
How to contact little orbit ?
BrandonBranderson replied to Suedzz's topic in General Discussion Archive
Don't forget to put the coins in and burn the ribbon of a JMB. -

Say their name 3 times. -
7/10 I feel like I've heard it before but I can't tell for sure. This is as 80s as it gets. If you've heard of Ministry before, this probably isn't what you know them for. From their first album:

Huh, I had no idea Pagan Bloodrose ended up becoming Tiptoe. Wasn't Pagan originally a RTW Waterfront contact in the same tier as Double-B? Some maps I found on google images suggest she was in that parking garage near the money laundry. Great design, the fauxhawk/ponytail combo looks great on her -

No thanks. The cheaters started using the ban feed to get their 5 seconds of fame fix for the day. -
Install the game last night, nothing has changed
BrandonBranderson replied to TooStrong's topic in General Discussion Archive
Yeah. Humans are pretty good at adapting to changes. One of the only ways to keep the gunplay from getting stale is to change the meta every once in a while. Otherwise it just gets boring. Plus it's not like any of them became completely useless. You're acting like people need one certain gun to even play the game. There's a large variety of weapons in APB, branch out and try out some other ones if you don't feel your favorite one is the absolute best anymore. Correct me if I'm wrong, but I'm assuming you were an Ntec user and you don't like the IR3 changes? -

Compare all this to the absolute standstill in development for the entire 2 year duration that you were gone. Right now they're unbreaking the shit that G1 broke. I agree the visuals are absolute shit at the moment, but that's not LO's fault. G1 did that years ago, and it wouldn't make sense to fix them right now since the engine upgrade is due fairly soon and they would have to redo a lot of junk on the new engine. The change to the threat system itself isn't what killed off half of the playerbase. The fact that you were restricted to your own threat's district is what did that, and we still haven't recovered even though G1 partially undid that. They did botch the weapon balance a little, and that would be the most recent dip in population, but to me it seems like a big overreaction from people who are pissed that their meta guns aren't meta anymore. I'm kinda indifferent on the changes personally. Though you might not personally care about the changes they made, they still did a hell of a lot more than g1 has in the past four years. Sorry, but saying nothing has changed is really stupid. -
I like the idea a lot, but maybe we could also have some kit parts that can kinda convert it into a coupe as well? The old 1937 Chevy Coupes actually had a pretty long trunk, so I don't think it would be too much of a stretch to make it fit within the truck bed's hitbox since the trucks also had some fairly short beds. This would have to be a full body kit to make it look right though. It'd probably have to be the cabin and trunk combined as one part, then the fenders, hood, bumpers, and grille/headlights as separate parts. I really like the idea though, was always a fan of hot rods and just classics in general.

I'm out of likes for today, but yes please. It's hard to see these little explodey cigars. They're especially hard to see in slightly darker than normal lighting conditions.

Internet Connectivity Issues
BrandonBranderson replied to MattScott's topic in General Discussion Archive
From what I can tell it's only Jericho being affected so it makes sense. I have a hard time believing that the phone lines can withstand 155 mph winds when rain and a slight breeze knocks my internet on its patootie. -
To do or not to do (MIDTOWN)
BrandonBranderson replied to Ellix's topic in General Discussion Archive
It was probably just G1's unwillingness to undo all the hard work they put into making the game look like a pile of shit. Just like how when we tried the higher TTK districts they intentionally made it awful to play so we wouldn't want to switch to new stats and invalidate the work they've done towards making the ttk shorter. I bet that with some effort they could revert the visuals to a time when it looked beautiful. -
The Growth of GamersFirst
BrandonBranderson replied to MattScott's topic in General Discussion Archive
This is nice to hear, thanks Matt! Though personally to me GamersFirst has a super negative stigma around it, I can understand why you don't want to re-brand it. It's a good name to have if you actually hold up to it, which you have been doing exceptionally well since you took over. You've improved the quality of life by a lot in APB even just by adding battle eye and the trading system alone. You might wanna smack that Reloaded Productions logo out of the intro video and throw Little Orbit in there though. It would be cool to see you match the style with your logo! -
I was really hoping that you guys were gonna shorten the non-premium cooldowns to what they currently are for Premium players. Removing the cooldown benefit altogether would be awful. The cool down for Nitro is ridiculous as-is. So the free cooldown timer should be shortened to what it currently is for premium. I'm not going to run out of premium until long after the game is gone because I've accumulated so much of it over the past 8 years from joker boxes, events, etc. I think the last time I actually bought any premium was back in like 2012, but I know it's definitely rough not having it, and a big part of that is the extended cool downs.

I kinda hoped for more progress
BrandonBranderson replied to Hollowchick's topic in General Discussion Archive
I've never heard anyone say that APB was on Unreal 1.0 and I've pretty much lived on these forums for the past few years. Just to put it in perspective of what games ran on which engines, Unreal (1998) and Deus Ex (2000) ran on UE1. Bioshock(2007) and the first Killing Floor(2009) were both late UE2 games. APB was on an early beta version of UE3, then Bioshock Infinite (2013), Killing Floor 2 (2016), and every Gears of War title (2006-2013) were all UE3 games. The engine we're upgrading to is the post-Gears of War 3 version of Unreal. But you're definitely right about it being a fossil and a lot of work. -
When does the Halloween Event start?
BrandonBranderson replied to a topic in General Discussion Archive
I think they fixed that in this last update. -
That would be kinda neat. Like a deployable speed bump? A little more harsh than a normal speed bump though.
-
First of all it would slow down gameplay, and making something slower when the speed cap is already as low as it is is not a way to make it more fun. The vehicle handling is bad enough in this game, and worse vehicle handling is not something APB needs in any situation. We're already driving like our tires are shot out.

Looks awesome! It fits the game's style very nicely.

Small Additions/Alterations (for a better APB)
BrandonBranderson replied to Defibyoulater's topic in Game
I agree with everything here. You almost got me on the dab emote though, didn't see the "Do not add this emote" right away. I think /vomit would be a good one to replace the dab emote with. You could kill people then vomit on them as a sign of respect.
