  1. To start things off, I'll explain that all I originally intended to do was attempt to upgrade my character bound VAS SW2 'Empire' to an account bound one, and then I stumbled upon a couple of issues while attempting to do so. The first of this list starts with the experience of me trying to upgrade the weapon from character to account bound. I do own a character bound Empire on one of my characters and the marketplace DID recognize that I've purchased this weapon previously, however for whatever reason, I was not given an "Account Bound Upgrade" option whatsoever. As you can see, I only have a discount applied from having premium. Now, I should also mention the other bug I noticed, that the marketplace ALSO seems to recognize any weapon that I've purchased previously as a trial (3 or 30 days), and that it behaves in the same way as the Empire above. I am no longer able to purchase any of the below three options, only leaving me to purchase an account bound one. To follow up on the fact that this bug is fairly inconsistent and isn't always reproduced, I have one more character bound weapon that I decided to take a look at. As you can see on the Kokoe, the discount is automatically applied if I wish to upgrade mine to Account Lifetime, and it recognizes that I already own this product as normal. Unfortunately, the weapon I wished to upgrade from character to account bound was the Empire and not the Kokoe, so I'm at a bit of a standstill with that as I don't want to pay the full price for it. Any idea on what would be causing this and how it could be corrected?
  2. My favorite weapon is probably the pre-nerf Colby M-1922 Mk3. I'd give a lot to be able to have that again, even though it's been forgotten and people probably don't care enough about it anymore. For me, it had the right balance to be consistent in close quarters and even be able to tap-fire at mid ranges to keep up with other various assault rifles.
  3. After its base dmg was reduced to fix the fact that HB2 still offered a 6 stk within its effective range, I have no reason to believe the N-Tec is overpowered or needs any other nerfs. Yeah, it can be annoying when you're in a point-blank battle and your enemy just squats on the ground with his N-Tec and outguns your OCA, or when you miss that second HVR shot that you needed to finish off the player, but that's not going to happen every time unless you're really not aware of your surroundings or you're against someone who is really good with that weapon. I don't main the N-Tec either, my most used weapon as of recent is the Volcano just because it feels like it's the only thing I can use when the server is on mitigation 24/7. Normally, I do generally prefer explosives or AV weapons, SMGs and marksman weapons because they challenge me to adapt to certain situations or stages of a mission. I myself get bored of using meta weapons really quickly and find myself switching to quirky weapons that don't really fit a niche.
  4. Hi, So I wanted to start off with saying that I'm excited to see that the first content update since pre-LO has finally dropped. However, I figured it would have been too good to be true for it to go without issue... I've noticed a rather strange one that only started occurring after the update. Upon launching the game, I'd noticed that my monitor would occasionally black out for a second or two as if I had accidentally done something to alt-tab the game.. no big deal. However, it began progressively getting worse. Very soon, about 30m with the game running, my monitor was doing this at random within 10 second to full minute timespans. There seemed to be absolutely nothing that I was pressing or doing to trigger this ingame, but it grew worse if I alt-tabbed the game and just left it running in the background. It would continue if I closed out the game, for around the next 30 minutes or so.. then it would calm down and go back to normal. To me and to some others, it sounds like a graphics driver crash. So just to rule that out, I ensured that my GPU drivers were fully updated. No dice, nothing changed. I then rolled back my drivers to a version that I know worked with APB. Again, no fix. Now, I'd try this with other games. Games running with DX9, games running with DX11, more graphic-intensive games and even games older than APB. Absolutely nothing triggered this issue again, so it seems to be something completely specific with APB. I haven't changed anything on my setup since my last playthroughs, although out of curiosity, I did try different graphics settings and different resolutions/switching back to native res. I found that the more often I changed out my resolution, the more often this would occur. So honestly, I'm stumped. I don't know why my PC decided to suddenly start hating APB post-battleye update, but... I dunno. Maybe you guys can take a stab at this. Any ideas? I'm open to anything before I start putting new hardware on my shopping list.
