    I grew tired of constantly copying my super-secure password from another place, so I came up with this crazy mega idea.
    Create a bat-file, then put this text in it:
    @echo off ::turns off console output to the screen
    echo|set /p=yourpasswordhere|clip ::copies the specified text to the clipboard
    start /d "C:\Games\APB Reloaded\Launcher" APBLauncherprogram ::specifies the path to the launcher

    you may copy the whole paragraph. :: is used for commenting.
    After the game is launched and you appear in the lobby screen, simply press CTRL-V and voila!

    To create and edit a bat file:
    1. create a text file on the desktop
    2. change the extension from .txt to .bat (if you can't do it, google show file extensions windows 10)
    3. Right Mouse Button click on it -> Edit

    Moderators, can you please edit my starter post, so the word

    Hey guys! Thank you to everyone who responded. Honestly speaking, I didn't think that new servers means totally new region. I expected that new server would just improve (decrease) EU region's latency.
    Anyway, for those who say that Little Orbit should focus only on the New Engine Update 2.1 Beta etc, I'd like to point out that I'm not the one who makes such promises. But I'm definitely an interested party. So if the developers say they focus solely on the Engine, let it be so. But if they say other things as well, they should be held responsible.

    The APB's playerbase is one of the most loyal and patient of all. We won't go anywhere, if you need time take it. Just be respectful to those who put their money, time and belief in you.

    Hey @HelloPie, this is a good question. Thanks for checking in, and we apologize for the delays so far. Long story short, covid has been interrupting supply chains and making everything take longer than it might otherwise. We paid for the servers in April, but the service we are using has had multiple issues with their vendors preventing things from coming online. I don't feel comfortable giving an ETA at this time given the state of things, but we are working as hard as we can to get these up as soon as possible. 

    I'm very pleased to receive the response so fast. Thank you for that. But see, it's exactly what I'm talking about. The lack of the servers is not exactly the problem. The problem is that I have to ask directly about you keeping promises. I'd very much like to actually stay informed in one way or another, as was told. Otherwise, I ask you not to give such promises as to keep people informed.

    I don't ask to create servers from the air, just keep us updated as you promise.

    Hello my dear community and the devs! I'm creating this topic only because I'm actually frustrated for the first time of my 9 years of playing APB since OBT. Going straight to the point.
    When are the Eastern European servers coming?
    I count 3 (three) times when Little Orbit and Matt Scott personally gave promises that the Eastern European servers (EU server) are being worked on and are coming very soon ("weeks not months"). We were also promised to be kept informed as "they learn more". Since these news started appearing, I began to read every News Post. But since March 22nd there were no info at all. Only once I got an answer from Matt on the Reddit AMA thread. But beside that I don't think that I am being kept informed.
    It may be that I'm missing something, because I really don't have that much time to play the game and learn all the news and check every forum post. Also I'm not a native English speaker, so it may cause some misunderstanding from my side.
    Anyway, recently I noticed that my ping became a little better (was 160, now 140). But idk if that's because there're new servers or because I reinstalled the game to SSD?

    The promises from LO and Matt Scott:

    NEW SERVERS

    We also wanted to let you know that we are adding some new servers in Warsaw to better serve our Eastern European players. We don’t have an exact ETA as to when they will be live given the state of the world right now, but they have been ordered and are on their way. We will keep you guys informed as we learn more.

    With that in mind, we have started the process to open more servers in Warsaw, Poland so our Eastern Europe and Russian players can get better latency.

    I just spoke with our provider on these. Apparently there was a delay getting circuits into the new facility. All the hardware is racked and ready. Unfortunately I don't have a firm ETA from them. I'm guessing weeks not months.

    TL;DR When are the EU servers coming?

    ping went from 20-50 to 90 and higher. Packet loss is like 1-8%, just in case if it'll help o/

     

    Merged.

     

    UPD: connection from UA , some russian friends have the same problems

    For anyone experiencing high latency, please go in-game and run /latencytest

    Then open a ticket at http://support.gamersfirst.com and attach the .CSV file from the APBGame/Logs directory. 

     

    Right now we are seeing 1 of 3 scenarios:

    1) We had an issue in the last patch that was spamming the network which got rolled back. We fixed the issue, so that code is active again since the Easter patch (players are helping diagnose with latency tests)

    2) Some home network providers are overloaded due to all the people working from home

    3) Our servers have been hit relentlessly with DDoS - for the most part this has had zero effect on players, but occasionally a large spike results in momentary lag

     

    Thanks,

    Matt

    Thanks for the fast reply, will do
