I do understand your issues, seriously though I think at the end of the day its our choice to upgrade or not. No doubt the decline in players is related to hardware upgrade issues and it is in LO's interest to provide a solution.

We need to take LO to the international Court of Justice, clearly they are breaching your human rights by denying you the right to upgrade your PC. Maybe we can start a class action together, I'm still running a core 2 duo because of the poor multi-threading performance....

I think in its current state things would be better if the threat system was disabled, visible threat removed, matchmaking disabled. Have everyone vs anyone with a permanent backup option so missions have the potential to be 16v16 etc. Just make things fun and chaotic until the engine upgrade and a better system is in place.

On the subject of weapon balacing, is the engine upgrade going to bring a substantial enough increase (if any) in the view distance so that weapons can be better balanced?

A cheap and cheerful Sharkoon Drakonia, had it since 3rd Jan 2014 and the left mouse button has taken a lot of abuse https://en.sharkoon.com/product/1692/12527#desc When it dies I might go for the newer model. https://en.sharkoon.com/product/DRAKII

If any of you want to study the grenades / throwables whilst being equipped in the hands of your player model, this bug will allow you to do that. Simply press your grenade key followed by the look behind camera key, you need to do this almost simultaneously. ie a very minor delay, [grenade button] > almost no delay > [look behind key] 05/05/2020 - Unconfirmed if anyone else can replicate this.

Anyone use a cheatprogram to win.

PC players apart from social, should never be allowed to play missions / FC with console players. The reality of online PC gaming, cheaters rule. https://www.eurogamer.net/articles/2020-04-18-call-of-duty-warzone-console-players-are-turning-off-crossplay-to-escape-pc-cheaters

Test running your CPU at default clock speeds, no OC. 16GB RAM - is that 2x8GB identical sticks?

Broken threat system and match making, one of APB's oldest outstanding issues Once they get the engine upgrade in place and at an acceptable point, they really need to start thinking about attracting new players by obliterating the threat / matchmaking system and replacing it with something that works and makes new players feel welcomed and positively contributes to making them become better players. What we have right now is a meat grinder that makes new players feel like shit and negatively contributes to making them better players. If anything is just fosters bad players in so many ways, I can't be bothered to go into but will pick on one point, when you label someone as trash by putting a silver/brown symbol above their name what impact does it have on that player? What impact does it have on other players? Then you ring fence them all together with the brilliant matchmaking system that uses their threat label to put them against each other..... The current threat/match making system is soooooo bad that I genuinely feel on the balance on probabilities a simple no threat system and matchmaking done on a whoever is available would be better than what we have right now, although this is nowhere near ideal or even acceptable. One can only hope that before the zombie apocalypse match making will be over hauled for the better.

@Ketog If you are using Windows 10, can you try disabling dynamic tick and see if it has any impact? Open a command prompt as admin; bcdedit /set disabledynamictick yes Reboot To remove the above, open command prompt as admin and type; bcdedit /deletevalue disabledynamictick And reboot.
