  1. haven't had the chance to try out the new beta but I really would like a workaround for missions where players are waiting for the other team to join. a lot of teamkilling occurs when one player doesn't listen and tries to complete the objectives before a PVP has started.

     

    also, it would be nice to have some pure solo missions for challenges and achievements, something everyone can do when they don't feel like joining other people

     

    good work LO by the way, you guys have put up with a lot of grief which isn't your fault and I know you can do it. keep going.

    have never used an aimbot though I do believe what you saying as I’ve encounter similar cases of it happening, terrible luck on those cheaters 😛

    I still don't know how to identify cheaters. Can someone give me a rundown please?


  3. Some of you spent months begging for threat to be removed on districts and now you've got it you're still dissatisfied? 

     

    Like you've even said you don't play the game anymore, you don't like it and you don't like LO or Matt Scott so why are you still here clogging up the forums and harassing staff? 

     

    It's not his first APB was left to the wind by Gamersfirst. Determining the worth of a game by its number of players is stupid too, lots of games have large playerbases which suck through and through, having a small dedicated plethora of people is better than nothing. 

     

    The updates are coming and I'm sure everyone is aware of what the problems are. Coding a game this old is not simple.

    alright so you want to encourage people to buy 20 dollar guns in a game that has people more fishy then fish lake on mount fishmore which in turn will allow several things lets name a few

     

    hackers and reroll accounts can just get there buddys to buy and supply weapons 

    people might try to start hacking accounts and payment method accounts like paypal to buy more guns and sell them ingame

    it takes out contacts fully because why the fuck do i want a 7day ntec when i can just buy 1 from the market place because i'm sure it would be full of them

    younger kids might steal there parents money

    its just fucking stupid 

    the legendaries with jt are fine due to the fact it's a chance and that's ingame cash you can earn over time or buy and still keeps in contacts and armas market

    and it makes it pointless to even play and rank contacts becuase aside from clothes which the better clothes is on the market why would i want to rank up? so i can get 195 mods? nah man not worth it might aswell go play crappy new vegas becuase all i would be doing is waiting for asylum and getting bored 

     

    Most of the guns are just reskins and contact ones are based on personal preference. You're overthinking this.

    i can pull up every single word from every single language on this planet and i could not come up with a single string of words that could tell you just how bad of an idea that is  

    So you can buy legendaries with JTs purchased from the Armas Marketplace, other permanents too but permanents purchased with G1C is somehow a bad idea?

    I'd be more interested to see what would happen if they just doubled health (from current 1,000 to 2,000) without any other changes. I feel like it would work out decently well, and also make currently not so obvious gun imbalances a bit more obvious.

    That's true, I was thinking about this last night. Increasing player health would be a good thing. Gunfights last a little longer but not too long. 


  8. Turning the medspray into a support item that only heals teammates instead of yourself will help improve teamwork instead of people spamming it for personal use.

     

    Before:

    Consumable - Triggers the spray of an advanced compound around you that immediately triggers health regeneration for friends and foes alike. You get the added benefit of doubling your base healt regeneration.

     

    Immediately starts health regeneration for all players within 5m

    Doubles base health regeneration for 5 seconds

     

    After

    Consumable - Triggers the spray of an advanced compound around you that increases health regeneration for allies.

     

    Passively increases health regeneration for allies within 5m for 5 seconds

     

    This way the player will get a slight health regeneration boost, not enough to restart a gunfight, not enough to be abused or play solo with and players will coordinate their consumables to aid this. A passive heal seems like the best option for an item like this. So it doesn't INSTANTLY heal your teammates, but it heals them a tiny bit faster for a short period of time.

     I maintain that the biggest problem that APB faces and always has faced is one of image, it has always been seen by the wider gaming public (rightly or wrongly) as a pay to win game that is riddled with cheats, I personally dispute the pay to win claims but I don't think anyone can seriously say that this game doesn't have a problem with people cheating, it's a free to play game and all free to play games have this problem to one degree or another and again rightly or wrongly APB has historically always been seen as one of the worst.

     

    This is the biggest hurdle that anyone running this game has to overcome - cleaning up it's image, a new engine will do nothing to fix this issue, you can have all the new content you like but if this game is seen as a hackers paradise you are never going to get your players back.

     

    When LO first aquired APB one of the first things they did was unban all previously banned players, in my opinion (and I doubt I'm alone here) this was monumentally bad optics, then we had the utter farce of them switching anti - cheat provders every few weeks, this only served to make them look even worse, I think by this point they have lost the trust of gamers to get this most important aspect right. We can argue all day about whether the bans dished out by G1 were deserved or not but I don't think anyone can dispute the fact that a good proportion of them must have been justified, anyway it's not even about that it's about public perception and this game is still percieved as a hackers paradise run by devs who really aren't in control of the situation.

     

    Without trust you are building your house on a foundation of sand and with this in mind I strongly believe that APB is way beyond salvation at this point.

    I see your point but how can LO account for the bans of another company? It isn't ethical. Giving players a second chance was a good idea.
