---------------------------------------------------------------------------------- On Wednesday the weekly installment of the "LAPD Squad Meet Up" is being held! As always, it takes place in combination with the "Chipp's Car Club" (CCC) player event, which is scheduled after. The starting time for the "LAPD Squad Meet Up" is around 19:00 GMT*. We usually meet up at least an hour or two before CCC starts and do regular patrols together as well as custom high speed chases (depending on whether or not open world crime is going on). If you want to participate - on the cop or the criminal side - just let us know. The CCC player event does start at 20:00 GMT* (which is an hour earlier from now on) and the location for this week should be in one of the Financial districts (see the disclaimer below). Please use either the CCC Discord LINK or the CCC APB Forum LINK for more details about the CCC event and the specifics about the district's event location. Members of LAPD Squad will again take care of traffic control during the street races after the CCC car show (where participants present their newest customisations). Any other enforcer or criminal interested in helping out - and thus doing something entirely different in game for a change - is welcomed to keep the traffic at bay with us. If you have time to attend, we'll see you on the streets. In any case: Please stay safe out there and use all necessary precautions to stay healthy! ---------------------------------------------------------------- BEWARE: Due to the removal of threat levels (September 2021), and thus threat districts, there could be serious issues with finding a moderately empty server to run events. At the moment only very few servers are available when logging in, so it remains to be seen if player events can take place in specified districts. It is also impossible to say if there are going to be enough free slots for all who want to participate (if the district is not empty). Whether or not those random players present will grief and interfere with the race and traffic control on purpose is also a hit and miss thing at the present. The same issues exist regarding open world crime activities, and it amounts to pure luck if units on patrol in available districts come across any of those. --------- * Links to a time zone converter, showing your corresponding local time, have been inserted for your convenience.

@proxie - Hey Proxie, as far as the normal missions go: Our core members stopped playing them long. long ago (as the missions are all godawful and plain boring - even more so with those changes that were introduced a while ago). For example I can not even remember the last time I did play a normal mission! As stated in the first posting of this thread, we spend most of our time patrolling the districts looking for open world crime as well as doing custom chases with friends and people who like vehicle pursuits. Aside from that we do traffic control for the street races of the weekly "Chipp's Car Club" player event. If you are looking for a clan to do normal missions with... - ...I am sorry to say that we are definitely not what you are looking for. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Tomorrow is Wednesday, which means the weekly installment of the "LAPD Squad Meet Up" is being held!

Indeed, FartyBumBumGuff is definitely right there, we sure love the chases. There is nothing more boring in our opinion than criminals just making a beeline to their dropoff point or - even worse - just start shooting like crazy, without even trying to drive away, even when given the opportunity to do so. This does not mean we do not enjoy shootouts as well, especially if they come with long pursuits

@proxie- Hey there! Well since threat levels no longer have any real meaning (due to the changes introduced in September 2021) and all gold players can now join any district, I guess the former threat level restrictions do no longer apply (all other rules and regulations mentioned in the first posting of this thread still are in place though). So feel free to join us on one of our patrols to get things rolling! ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Today is Wednesday, which means the weekly installment of the "LAPD Squad Meet Up" is being held!

@Xenise - Thank you very, very much for those kind words (totally made us blush there)! We are glad to be part of CCC in our very own way (which is quite fitting really, since a big part of the entire event is customisation and doing one's own thing), doing our small part to help the truly brilliant CCC team & community out. It is always fun to see everyone each week and marvel at the new paint jobs, customisations and outfits everyone comes up with. In a game that is regarded as being pretty toxic, it is wonderful to see people getting along and that welcome new participants as kindly as its veterans. You guys all rock and are the reason to log in at least once a week! Hopefully you are right and that the future will bring some desperately needed improvements for running custom events & races as well as an expansion of the open world features for both criminals and enforcers. See you and the rest of the "Scooby Gang" on Wednesday (btw I do hope the scheduled Halloween events will not interfere with the races)! ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Tomorrow is Wednesday and thus the weekly installment of the "LAPD Squad Meet Up" is being held!

Tomorrow is Wednesday and thus the weekly installment of the "LAPD Squad Meet Up" is being held! As always, it takes place in combination with the "Chipp's Car Club" (CCC) player event. The starting time for the "LAPD Squad Meet Up" is around 19:00 GMT*. We usually meet up at least an hour or two before CCC starts and do regular patrols together as well as custom high speed chases (depending on whether or not open world crime is going on). If you want to participate - on the cop or the criminal side - just let us know. The CCC player event does start at 21:00 GMT* and the location for this week should be in one of the Waterfront districts. Please use either the CCC Discord LINK or the CCC APB Forum LINK for more details about the CCC event and the specifics about the district's event location. Members of LAPD Squad will again take care of traffic control during the street races after the CCC car show (where participants present their newest customisations).

No Threat Districts are a mistake
StevenDeckard replied to The_Boss's topic in General Discussion Archive
I do agree with those that think it is a big mistake to remove threat-levels. I am aware of why it was done, but think it might have been better to move the entire Jericho player base to Citadel instead of removing the threat-levels. My two reasons why: 1) New players and low level players now constantly encounter high level (a.k.a. gold) players that practically wipe the floor with all of them. To begin their killing spree those high level players no longer have to "dethreat" and can start to wreak havoc as soon as they load up their game. This in turn will lead to many, many of the new players simply leaving the game after a few of those "fun" matches (and who could blame them, after all being beaten to a pulp 24/7, with little to no chance, is no fun at all). The result will be that even fewer new players will stick around and the player base will drop further... 2) This reason might be off little or no concern to those players that only play the normal APB "shoot em up" missions, but the removal of threat-districts does also impact those of us that do RP stuff (and exclusively played the "open world" side of the game) as well as those that want to make videos or run player events (like for example races). With threat districts available one could more or less judge where "open world crime" might be going on and then join that server hoping for some "cops & robbers" missions with high pursuit chases, shootouts and arrests. Now this is no longer the case as there are only a few servers that are packed with high levels killing everything left and right, The same goes for player events and making more advanced type of videos (not the gameplay ones) that work much better on less frequented servers (as the chance of interference from other, non-participating players is less likely). So for those players, like for example myself, this really, really sucks. -
