Hi all,
We just started patching 7pm PDT 8/8/2018 or 2am UTC 8/9/2018.
My apologies to everyone for the early "prime time" patch. Normally we don't do that.
The network code upgrade requires a little babysitting, and I wanted devs around to quickly revert changes if there is a problem.
Thanks,
Matt-

Hi all,
We are patching tonight.
I know there is some concern over weapon balance.
We are collecting stats and we will be monitoring the meta.
We are all in this together, and we want the best for the game.
Rest assured we will continue to balance after this patch.
Thanks,
Matt-

Hi all,
We did just have a significant outage in Jericho, Citadel, and OTW.
I don't have details to share yet, but we are in the process of rebooting servers and making sure everything is running properly.
Thanks,

Hi there,
We have contacted Amazon - several times - and no one responds. Unfortunately none of the staff we brought over was ever involved in setting them up.
My advice: Please complain to Amazon so they will remove them.
In the meantime, we will keep trying to get them to respond.
Thanks,
Matt-

Hi all,
The price is purely there to put up a barrier for players to abuse other players and then quickly change their name.
We are already eliminating the monetization around the ignore/friends list extender in the next patch.
Thanks,

Hi guys,
This was a DDOS attack. We've done well for the last week mitigating various issues, but tonight was a back to back hit on Jericho one hour and then Citadel the next.
We're working on rebooting servers.
Thanks,

I assumed Cookie was messing with us and joking.
If anyone wants max rank on OTW just post here, and I'll have the team review it tomorrow.
We appreciate everyone's help and feedback.-

Hi all,
Lots of good discussion on this thread.
I'm going to unpin it, but only because we have a lot of pinned messages right now, and my original post is a bit outdated now.
But feel free to continue discussing here.
Thanks,

Hi all,
Selali's post was designed to try and encourage more customizations on players in the 50/50 test.
We did get very positive results, so we will be pushing this new code live on the next patch.
Regardless of the next patch, we'll keep working on it, because I want to open districts to 100 players again.
It's critical in the short term for better matchmaking and the overall health of the game.
Thanks,
Matt-

Hi guys,
Apparently the internal system for advancing rank to 255 is pretty intense on the servers, and we didn't want to skew the results. Also there wasn't time to upgrade everyone, but we appreciated the help, so at my direction Lixil took names so we could upgrade those accounts after the test was complete. I'll check with her tomorrow to see where we are in that process.
Thanks,
Matt-

Hi all,
@Hexerin I'm going to politely disagree. Stripe is a PCI Level 1 payment provider who services Lyft, Slack, and many other farther larger companies than GamersFirst. Under PCI and GDPR they are absolutely prohibited from mining your data. If anyone has a problem with them, please send the issue to myself or Customer Support so we can address it.
For context, we had a number of complaints during the July 4th sale related to poor service with one of the other providers. I chose to investigate other options and make an alternative available.
Thanks,
Matt-

Hi all,
I've reached out directly to the OP to see if we can troubleshoot their issue.
I don't see much value in this thread at this point, so I'm going to lock it.
If the OP feels that we haven't addressed their concerns, then they are welcome to start another thread.
Thanks,
Matt-

Hi all,
I've been working on an update for the Fallen Earth community.
The server code is frustrating. We're currently hunting down an issue that is causing all the lag.
I'll look into daily reboots for the time being.
Thanks,Matt

Hi everyone,
It's that time again. Apparently my math ended up being wrong last week, as I attempted to unravel the tickets from our support provider being spammed.
Clearly the total tickets was wrong. This is the corrected number as it stands today.
Here are the current CS stats this week:
- 76,560 total tickets have been created for APB since the new portal went up on 5/25
- 6,767 of them have been closed.
- 94,310 interactions back and forth on tickets.
- 1,369 of them are untouched.
We had another stellar week in CS. We only got 409 new tickets, and we closed more than 700 old tickets.
Thanks,
Matt-

Hi there,
We removed it until we can fix an issue with how that DLC is redeemed. There have a number of customer support issues related to it.
Thanks,

Hi everyone,
I can respect the OP’s position. But I think this topic has gone as far as it’s going to go. We do have at least two other threads already discussing this, and more OTW changes are coming.
Gonna lock the topic.
Thanks,
Matt-

Locking per the OP’s request.

For me a good report system needs to have limits so it cant be spammed, and ways of prioritizing data from players who use it well.
It also needs to provide us with actionable information. We have mountains of server-side data. We just need to get solid player reports to inform where to focus.
Ultimately I dont want any cheat systems in the game that we ignore. That’s why we removed /report for now. I didn’t want the illusion that we were actually getting anything useful from it.-

I didn't update it in the Roadmap, but a new /report system is in the works. The old system was.. useless.

Hi there,
For the OP - I removed the pin because we have newer topics in the forum that needed to be pinned, and we need to rotate out older pinned topics. Otherwise we end up with too many posts locked to the top of the forums, and no one knows what's important. We have made significant improvements to the lag, and we will continue to work on it.
The disconnect issues are a different problem that we are looking into.
Thanks,
Matt-

We figured out that the crash was related to adding friends.
Thanks for the heads up.
Going to lock this. -
Hi all,
Looks like we'll be able to leave your friends lists intact, but we will need to wipe any non-reciprocal friends (open friend requests).
Thanks,
Matt-

Should we make predictions on how we can obtain the Showstopper?
in General Discussion Archive
Posted
I can confirm that the Showstopper is initially going to be available in ARMAS and as a leased base variant through the Joker store.
Unfortunately, we're running behind on the Thunder variant which needed a unique skin. It will be available in a new JMB. It was our first time organizing anything like this, so the new JBM will launch next week.
We have some other variants planned for in-game, but those are a bit longer term and farther off.
Thanks,
Matt
