Let's just make districts 1-1 max pop. Better for performance. Just forget about this game being an MMO.
Bring back 50-50 please

Engine progress timeeeeee *drumrolls* we're still working on it! *confetti falls and fireworks shoot overhead* Tune in next month, bye guyssssss"
Not really underwhelming to hear progress, big or small, on the most important project of this games history.

Go see a doctor to get your eyes checked.
Plenty of threads on what Little Orbit has done for APB.
And honestly nothing has been significant. Communication is massively declining, they are extremely far behind on their road map, and the work they have done has been minimal, at best.

Hi,
People are getting kicked from district and then that character is locked out of the game, however, other characters on the same account still work.
This happened at 5PM PST

oh yeah because that would be unreasonable right?

I find this hard to believe to be honest with you. I believe this is what Matt had said as well, but again, I doubt it.
5 hours ago, AxeTurboAgresor said:Also I think they were saying that the districts will be reworked as we know it, and we would be able to play missions with a guys from different districts. Its not entirelly impossible to do as it seems.
Yeah many games do this, not uncommon today. If they can't even implement a simple queue system, then...

3 hours ago, WhiskeyTangoFoxX said:What I find fascinating and weird every time this topic comes up is that people seem to assume that RIOT is made to replace missions/FC, instead of being another option for players who want to play it. At no point was this ever said (far as I know anyways).
As for the idea of a queue system, it may just create more issues than it solves. Just imagine 30 people in a queue waiting for a single district to open a slot each for them individually. I've seen it said before and I agree that it's true. If more people would stop trying to spam into a single district and instead start populating one of the empty ones, this would be far far less of an issue (at least on EU, NA is a lot more scuffed pop wise to go with that approach unfortunately)
I think if there were truly 30 people trying to get into a district at that point we'd have more than 1 district active at a time. I see your point but I also know that if someone clicks "join queue" and sees "you are 30th in line" they'll probably go to another district of FC or something.
I don't think anyone thought RIOT was supposed to replace the core game, just that it's wasted effort. It will be in the pile along with other failed experiments.

I think we're about 7 years passed the point of any large hordes of new players coming to APB. Our best bet is having players return, and maybe bringing a few friends.

The US server is essentially capped at its current playerbase due to 40-40 limitations and no queue system. There's only one bronze server and one silver server at the PEAK of Jericho. You can sit there and click spam join district for 20 minutes but MAN does that feel like a really low quality way to spend your time. There is STILL no way to put yourself in a queue to join a district. You don't just give up and join an empty district, so with that in mind, we are capped at our current PEAK playerbase. I'm fairly confident that developing a queue system is more important than developing a gamemode that (almost) nobody wants. I hate to say it but we may not end up needing a queue system at this rate, if playerbase continues to decline and we never see full districts.
I get that Citadel still has a pretty decent playerbase however, and maybe a queue system isn't so essential since there's multiple districts to choose from.
Re-inventing the APB wheel isn't going to save the game, but new content and the EU *might*.
So, either LO is in way over their heads and cannot develop a queue system, let alone an engine upgrade, or they have really poor prioritization in my opinion. The player reviews of RIOT speak for themselves, "neat...but meh". People play APB for its unique gunplay and customization, not for BR elements. (Yes I know some people will disagree and argue its not BR but it is, it really is)
I get that there are people out there who are utterly stoked for RIOT, so I don't want to sound like I'm being ignorant, but I think the vast majority of people would rather see other things happen to APB.
I believe RIOT will be added to the pile of failures along with open conflict among other things.
Thoughts?

50-50 districts ran fine in the early days of APB.

Please @Kempington show us the real deal !
Kemp's tier list was made out with actual player advice and data.
(also if you think nssw and fbw are bad guns, maybe you need to play a bit more of APB )
How can you possibly say that? Look at the modern try hard list. This is the only thing you see in the butter districts today.
If you've been playing for long enough you can see that this accurately matches the historic trends of APB.
10/10 list.

Hi everyone,
Bad news - it looks like we're forced to add an additional 3 hours to the downtime. The team is positive this will be the last extension needed to bring the servers back up.
Your frustration is understandable and I sincerely apologize for the wait, hopefully, this will be over soon.
LOL

Gotta be honest. This feels like some really low tier private WoW server.
At least G1 could keep the servers up.

Who would have thought that the developers would be the ones to kill the game /sarcasm

I believe they called advanced launcher NOT okay.
I had been using adv. launcher to achieve this for years now but I did it manually last week.

I and many others delete the intro videos/loading screen videos for faster load times with SSD.
Is this a bannable modification?
Useless polishing of the chessboard.

As an ex-sweaty gamer myself, I agree. Gold doesn't equal anything else but GOLD, and yet, 9/10 missions, the opposition looks exactly like your screenshots.
