    Here is a work around for macros that will never get caught (Please don't share. Super secret): 

    You set up your brain to send a signal down your nervous system in a repeating fashion that makes your hand do the action over and over again. It undetectable by battle eye.

    Trophy for you

    Reasonable player testing things on OTW: "Hey, i'll join OTW to test things out and help LO fixing stuff, so i can gain on a long term, with a stable game having additions of new content. That's a reward for me also!" < This player fairly gets a reward based on what Nite said, and he gets a reward in the early and long terms. Success!!

    "What i'm afraid of" player testing things on OTW: "HEY, LEMME TEST THINGS ON OTW SO I CAN GET STUFF FOR MY ACCOUNT" < This player joins OTW, joins Waterfront, drives around for 5 minutes than starts ranting: "WHERES MY STUFF? I WANT MY REWARDS" *sends ticket to support to complain*

    :classic_laugh:

    Be afraid of the unknown my friend, that's going to happen (if the event became a thing), no sense fearing it lol

    I always thought this would be a nice compromise for criminals. Give cops lights and sirens, crims underglow.

     

    Only problem is that APB currently doesn't "do" dynamic lighting with its engine, so it'd need to be added in after the engine upgrade.

    Yeah, give the driver something to click RMB for! 😄

    Is the only thing that will avoid you in spam the Join button or just if the district is full make the Join button not clickable

    The server list isn't exactly real-time, it refreshes so sometimes it could say it's full when it's not cause it hasn't refreshed yet

    And as long as I can queue for multiple districts, I'm fine with that

    so open a 3rd silver district so they dont bug bronzes i guess

    I'd like a 3rd dist, can't join bronze anyway, and wouldn't want to either

    In the future maybe theyy will add the Queue Screen when you can do other things in the sametime too until the district have slot/s free and let you enter and loading the map.

    I thought about that but idk, how many other people would I need to wait for them to put in before my turn?

    Way too many people in silver districts, 2 financial instances and 1 wf instance are full... and my gf and I have been waiting ages (20 minutes) for 2 spots to open up. The 2nd waterfront instance has very low numbers (5v5) and I completed all my wf contacts anyway 😞

     

    A positive way to look at this is: yay, people are playing again! But still...

    Match making works, if threats were in their proper areas. But it pulls from available players, and when the threat level is all over the spectrum, like in Bronze, then match making throws up it's hands, and goes, "I guess!"

    Umm, I wouldn't say it works, cause even when I'm in silver district, I face golds that are way above me in terms of skill, and golds that are on my level. So, even within a single threat, skill is still all over the place.

    The problem with your pathetic attempt at sarcasm is that there are genuine 255 bronze and silver players who are ACTUALLY BRONZE AND LOW SILVER.

     

    Not because they are dethreating, but because they just aren't skilled enough at the game. 

     

    New players don't know what dethreating is. It's the people who've been playing for a good while who are just bad that are blaming people better then (again) THEIR personal skill level as dethreaters.

     

    People forget that if you are 50% or above the whole team/op, your threat goes up. This is why you'll see golds in Bronze. They're good enough to rank up againt lower skilled players, but not good enough to level up against better silvers or actual golds.

    I'll retract my statement about months/years of experience, but that's it. A gold still should be facing off against a bronze. Rank hardly matters. Sure, a bronze max rank is weird, but there isn't anything weird about a max rank silver. 

     

    Also, I was under the impression people were complaining about golds, not high ranks in bronze.

     

    P.S. My attempt at sarcasm was fine because you still understood it was sarcasm.

    Because the ol' "There's no one to play with!" argument.

     

    Though, I do also understand that right now, BattleEye is collecting data, and some people are going a little ham at the moment.But then there are some names that I see that seem to never leave Bronze, and always Gold.

    They only need to dip out of Bronze for like a second before they're allowed back in.

    Man, with all these threads and people crying, you'd think 90% of apb  is just people dethreating to play in Bronze when it's just simply not true.

     

    You're bronze or extremely low silver for a reason. That reason being that you as an individual player are BAD. You aren't skilled enough to get out of bronze or extremely low silver. It has nothing to do with someone dethreating. 

     

    A "gold" player who can lose threat in just a few games isn't Gold. Any ACTUAL gold would have to dethreat constantly for a few days or even longer. 

     

    You're simply getting beat by someone who is better then YOU. Not in the sense of your threat, but In the sense of YOUR personal skill.

     

    Any threads about this whiny garbage need to be autolocked.

    Wow... might as well throw away threat then. You'll lose cause you're worse right? Threat doesn't matter. A gold-painted silver is CLEARLY not a different skill level than a bronze, the bronze is just bad and needs to git gud, gud enough to stand their own against people with months or years of experience over them.

     

    Sigh.........

    I agree too. The concept is cool, but there are so many things in the video that ruin or diverge from the game :classic_mellow:

    For example, the acting was pretty bad, the fat cop on its knee crying like a baby was terrible, the bald cop guy doesn't have a badge on the live action, then he appears in game with the badge.

    Now something that diverge between the action trailer and the game, is the girl using a nun outfit. We got no nun outfit in game! What the heck!! :classic_laugh::classic_tongue:

    Also the fact that you'll never see crims and enfos lining up cars across the street for a regular ol' shootout. The guy pulling the OSMAW out was pretty accurate (a conc nade would have been faster though lol)

    either that, or the first two options should been “nerf” and “buff” instead of “yes” and “no”

    That works too but hey, you and @Nymphi-DoubleDee can figure out how to communicate that to him, I'ma just watch

    Should snr be nerfed or buffed?

    • Yes. (Nerf or Buff it, you can't tell which without separating the numbers so flip a coin LO)
    • No. (Leave it alone)
    • Maybe. (...)
    • This is nonsense! (It really is)
    • Let's stop these nerf threads for once 😄 (Might as well)
    This is how I understand it

    i just did?

     

    this poll won’t acurately tell you who wants a nerf and who wants a buff, it just tells you who wants the snr to be changed and who wants it to stay the same

     

    So his question should have been: Should the SNR be changed?

     

    I actually sat and read this entire thread/argument... I need a life dammit...

    You know, I wouldn't mind them doing that. As long as the rewards for being Gold in Bronze is literally 0. And also it halts Role progression.

     

    It was stupid of G1 to remove it.

    That'll only stop people who care about progression, like max ranks. And I'm not sure if you mean rank or any role progression at all (e.g. the Cop role for arrests).

    thats why we got open-conflict district. even tho people dont play in there, maybe LO can think of something to get people in there as well? Honestly back then when i had to get people in APB i made new accounts and tried to teach them instead of playing to get 30kills per mission(which can get you to gold in exactly 2 to 3 missions)... ^.^

    Tried open conflict the other day. most of the OPP seemed to be new-ish. Didn't play very smart.

    Sure, why not? If this game ever gets to a pristine condition, with better (decently updated to 4.0) looking graphics, no critical bugs, enhancement of current mechanics and considerable new content (new maps, reworked UI that wont cause lag, new mechanics, new cars, weapons, modes, etc), it could certainly has its place on E3.

    Blizzard advertises their World of Warcraft, which is already 14 years old and people still enjoy it.

    Not like big companies do (Bethesda, Playstation, etc), but maybe with a stand there, givin attention to people, marketing the game and giving some fancy things to people (flyers with codes) to gather their attention... but the main thing must be there then, which would be: a REALLY polished game, that can't look like it's now, all broken from years of mismanagement and unattention.

    Remember the live action trailer? This could have worked, if the game ALSO worked as it should.
     

     

    Ugh, this is still the biggest piece of bait I've ever taken...

    I have an workaround fix, not the best but it does the job. Navigate to \Steam\steamapps\common\APB Reloaded\TPI , Open TPI.xml with notepad , look for 

    <InstallerInfo>
        <Name>DirectX</Name>
        <DllRelativePath>DirectX\DirectXInstaller.DLL</DllRelativePath>
        <SetupFileRelativePath>DirectX\DirectX_June2010program</SetupFileRelativePath>
      </InstallerInfo>

    And delete it. Same goes for BE installer : look for 

    <InstallerInfo>
        <Name>BattleEye</Name>
        <DllRelativePath>BattleEye\BattleEyeInstaller.DLL</DllRelativePath>
        <SetupFileRelativePath>..\Binaries\APB_BEprogram</SetupFileRelativePath>
      </InstallerInfo> 

    And delete it. Save it and you are done.

     

    I know about this fix, but not sure if it's allowed. I just got unbanned, not in a hurry to return there. I'll sit and wait the extra minute to start up the game lol

    Or when someone drives by with stereo mix and you get earraped by music.

    Over VoIP? they do that with the in game radios and it hurts so bad hearing the same pre-made playlists over and over....

    I seem to remember, once upon a time, lots of people used VOIP, but that long ago, I think maybe last.fm was working right too, which, I thought was really cool. Now when people have import station going it just plays, random music you have imported, or nothing.

     

    I actually heard ENF I was fighting, last night, AND today, today, one of them was "Oh Sh** She can hear me too" lol.

    Lol that reminds me of the time years ago when 2 were talking while I was around the corner and one asked "I wonder if he can hear us?"

     

    I just let my gun reply for me

    I attempted to disable the feature it said something like "you cannot disable this if you're a solo player" 

     

    But manually unreadying after the auto ready works 🙂

    Wrong feature, that one was for having other players join your group for missions. Disabling it once you're in a group will start missions with only your group members. Not sure if it prevents you from being called in as backup though.
