    Remote det slipped through the cracks again. Needs a proper cooldown on par with the 4x4 Firebomb so it can't be spammed. 

    All I have to say. Otherwise great patch. 🙂

    maybe , but only for fireboom , not for all cars , now remote detonator is useless

     

    Merged.

    Hello everyone,

     

    A new patch is going up onto the Live servers for PC. This patch will be happening on Wednesday 8/5/2020. We are posting our notes a little early this week because there are a lot of changes to cover this time around (see overview for more details). The Patch is scheduled to start at 9 AM UTC and will last up to 6 hours. Console will have its normal maintenance starting at 9 AM UTC as well.

     

    OVERVIEW

    Our PC patch this week deals primarily with missions. Since Little Orbit took over, there has been a lot of talk about mission balance. We have been carefully listening to everyone's feedback and noting areas of improvement for some time now, but since Missions are the core of APB, these weren't changes we wanted to rush into. Any modifications to these core systems needed a strong understanding of APB gameplay and how everything fits together. As such, that is how we would like to frame this discussion: holistically. We are going to cover each of our goals for missions in a general sense before diving into the specifics in the changelog.

    This first mission pass is intended to provide as much improvement as possible to the APB player's experience without fundamentally changing any of the existing missions you know and love. Our efforts here were focused on reducing pain points, like unwieldy timers, odd group sizes for missions, or awkward objectives. We wanted our missions to flow. Additionally, we wanted to introduce as many opportunities for counter-play as we could to emphasize opportunities for skillful and exciting back and forth between players.

    Another area we knew we could improve upon is novelty. Many of our hardcore players have done the same set of missions thousands of times. In order to add some variety, we've gone back and found 50 missions that were previously disabled, added them back to the available mission pool, and updated them all to current mission standards. This means that, in addition to improved gameplay flow, there are also now many more missions to experience in any one gameplay session.

     

    Finally, our third area is balance. With so many different missions and objectives, it was important to us that each felt as fair as possible to either side. Many of our timing, point, and grouping changes were in service to this goal.

     

    There are many more changes than we have space to cover here or which can neatly fit into our three main pillars of Mission Flow, Mission Novelty, and Mission Balance. We will include a more detailed list of these changes in the change log below, but we encourage you to try them out for yourselves when the patch goes live. An important part of this process of improving APB is community feedback, so be sure to let us know what you think once you've gotten a chance to play!

     

    PC CHANGES/FIXES

     

    Mission Changes

    • We've manually adjusted stage timers and point totals to account for various mission factors. Some examples include:
      • Number of objectives
      • Distance between objectives
      • Size of task items (Small, Medium, Large)
      • Objective location (Streets, Satellites, Open Areas)
    • Final stage timers and point totals for stages that have points have been reworked to focus more on point totals and less on timers.
    • Bonus time missions now end early when unopposed to prevent stage time pooling. Bonus time based missions now begin with a larger timer.
    • Stage timers have been normalized when swapping between attack and defend stages.
    • Missions where the first stage involves three objectives have had their stage timers increased to prevent the defenders from having an immediate advantage.
    • Moved all VIP/Escort missions to a minimum group size of 3.
    • Re-evaluated the minimum group sizes for every mission in the game.
    • 50 previously disabled missions have been added back into the available mission pool and are updated to current mission standards.

    hii , why add coldown to remote detonator ?? , now this mod is useless , maybe coldown is good for firebomb only , but not for all cars , and i thinking . . .  much low bad updates , but never ban hackers , and this game have a verry verry verry serious problem with cheater players , everyday i see more players with hacks , especially triggerbots . i see a most big problems for update , how a threat level in districts , you can see much more gold playes than bronze players in bronze district and much of this gold players are cheaters , that is a serious problem , as the abuse suffered by new and low-ranking players keeps most from playing again . and in my case every day I am more tired of playing against hackers, to the point that I no longer feel like playing anymore, and to top it off this very bad update today @Sakebee @MattScott
