It seems like they don't ban people for being toxic. They ban for very specific nonsense. Like that one person who's account was broken due to support trying to remove an offensive symbol. That person seemed to get in an argument every time they signed in. That was fine according to support, but one symbol is where they draw the line. It's like when someone has been arrested 10+ times, has multiple break and entries, theft, attempted murder, but the drug charge gives them the most time in prison. That person probably doesn't belong in society, but the drugs shouldn't have been the deciding factor. But, I don't work for support. I can only go by hearsay from people vocal about their bans. Realistically, those small offenses probably encouraged support to investigate previous reports, and support said screw it and swung the ban hammer.

About cars and their modifiers
BlatMan replied to Yapopal's topic in Social District (General Discussion)
My complaint is the slotted low tier vehicles have no purpose. You get 1-2 slot high end vehicles before you get 3-4 slot low tier vehicles. There's no point in buying a slotted Calabria when you have access to a slotted Pioneer and have a free mobile spawn mod included with the starter car. I drive some slotted low tier cars for the memes, but they're not practical. Also, all the free to spawn cars are $50K for a 4 slot. This price point is perfect for new players, but they don't have access to these vehicles till rank 200+ A side note. All of the free to spawn vehicles share the same front end design. You can swap the entire front clip (bumper, fenders, hood, lights) between vehicles and the models will line up. There's even examples within the game files. There's also a convertible Calabria. I WANT IT! -

I'm taking the chaotic neutral position. Decrease "Per Shot Modifier" from 6 to 3. This will allow cooling jacket and improved rifling to work in 2 shot bursts. -
No, remove all autoaim. Add mouse support to consoles.

I have the same issue when HPET is enabled. Try disabling HPET in Windows and in the BIOS, if available. I don't see it listed in your motherboard's manual (ROG STRIX Z370-E GAMING) For Windows: - Run command prompt as Administrator (or PowerShell as admin), type "bcdedit /deletevalue useplatformclock" without quotes > press enter. - Next go to your device manager (right click on start button > device manager) > system devices > right click high precision event timer > disable driver). To enable HPET: - Type "bcdedit /set useplatformclock true" in command prompt or powershell, and enable hpet in device manager. https://www.reddit.com/r/PUBATTLEGROUNDS/comments/afyx1f/psa_disable_hpet_high_precision_event_timer_for/ https://www.minitool.com/news/disable-hpet.html

So switching shoulders and crouching does not affect the bloom. You need to shoot slower. You've moved the goal post so far it's on the other side of the field.

I'll quote the whole thing since you're suffering from dementia. I changed the color so you can see exactly what you wrote. Again. Why do I need to fire burst of 3/4 shots if the bloom is going to be reset when I switch shoulders? https://apbdb.com/items/Weapon_Pistol_FBW The FBW has a recovery delay of 0.1s. It has a recovery per second of 1, or 0.2. It has a fire rate of 0.2. If switching shoulders reset the recovery delay, it would not have any bloom if timed perfectly. There is no difference. I can switch shoulders within 20ms. It should affect it somewhat but there's no change. It doesn't hurt to test though, never know what stupid bug will be introduced between patches.

The M-1922 is trash because G1 nerfed the accuracy. The recoil was 90% vertical which is easy to control, but it required too much desk space. The lowered accuracy made it worse against other SMG/AR hybrids, and the hip fire recoil makes it less viable against SMGs. The 'Hazardous' legendary is pointless. It has normal preset mods, and a free 2 slot M-1922 is unlocked from the later contacts. I would give it Chambered Round, and one open slot. At least then it has something better than the normal model. -
"fire burst" Why? You just said switching shoulders resets the bloom.
-
I prefer old tommy gun with high mag scope and muzzle break. Switching shoulders doesn't remove bloom. It's a placebo because you shoot slower focusing on switching and crouching.

The Yukon's takes too long to draw. You're not hitting that 4th bullet per burst at 40M. It's pointless in its current state. But about the RFP. The changes make no sense. The current issue with the RFP-9 is that it cannot hit a full burst beyond 20M, or even at 10M while firing at max rate of fire. The RFP-9 on the test server is not overpowered. It has a longer ttk than the Colby .45 and FBW, and has less range than the Colby RSA and ACT 44. It doesn't make sense to keep the terrible bloom per shot and slow recovery time on the RFP-9 when buffing the accuracy of the others. The Colby .45 range nerf makes even less sense now that the ACT 44 and RSA have been buffed. ' Other thoughts. The OCSP should be increased to 35M or 40M. The fr0g should be increased to 15M or 20M. The pistol suppressor should NOT have -1 ammo capacity. The OCA Nano should have faster draw time. The Mobility Sling mod should have the longer draw time debuff removed, or replace mobility sling with tagger on all pistols. -
It's mostly vertical recoil, and it's not absurd like the old tommy gun. The lower draw time and reload time on the FBW does make it better in some situations, but if you missed 15 rounds, you weren't going to kill with any weapon. Thing is, I don't think the .45 needed a nerf. I think the other pistols needed tweaking to make them worth using. The gamersfrist buffed RFP-9 was a good alternative to the .45. Better accuracy at range while sacrificing TTK. They could have reduced the FBW's bloom or gave it a little more over damage, rather than nerf it's competitors.

Decrease the time it takes to complete the objectives in the mission "Side Effects May Vary." The investigate and burn objectives take over 30s to complete. I believe these are the longest out of all the missions. The investigate objectives, in the 2nd stage, are normally over 300M apart. There's not enough time between spawn waves and traveling to complete the objectives. There's a high chance criminals will not have the proper equipment for the investigation, since criminals cannot unlock the camera equipment. https://apbdb.com/missions/JG_BCL4_Ars1 Also, this mission is being assigned to 2 players when it should be minimum 3. On APB:DB, it says Min Group Size 3. I have gotten this mission unopposed with only 1 teammate, or 2 players total. No one quit the mission.

https://apbdb.com/changelog 1.30.0.839420 > 1.30.0.839648 Pistol_ColbyClassic - fMinDamageRange - Old 2500 - New 1000 Pistol_ColbyClassic - fRampDistance - Old 4000 - New 3500 It still has more range, faster ttk, and better accuracy than the FBW. It's still the most versatile secondary.
-
The only reason the .45 out shoots the PMG is because these idiots nerfed the range of the PMG from 40M to 20M.
-
No they didn't. The game still freezes every minute due to the garbage collection. Their DDoS solution has latency fluctuations, causing ghost shots and hitreg problems. It better than the servers going offline, but it's far from good.

The clownery at LO knows no bounds
BlatMan replied to NotTheEnforcer's topic in Social District (General Discussion)
In all seriousness, I think you need to take a break. One time I mistaken you for another player who used to be named Arch. -
I've noticed many of the blatant cheaters stopped playing missions. I wasn't expecting there to be any change, considering players were cheating on the 64 bit beta test. I can't say how good a job EAC is doing, but it's obviously doing something, even if it's just making players scared to cheat.

I keep getting disconnected when I tab out of the game while in the character clothing editor.

I found this post on the Fortnite subreddit: https://www.reddit.com/r/FortNiteBR/comments/awagpo/packet_reordering_technical_post/ It describes how the game handles packets out of order. By default, if an earlier packet arrives later than a later packet, the packet is dropped. The packet is counted as received, so you don't get a packet loss message on the client. Maybe APB has this same issue?
-
It's too blocky compared to the real gun. Looks like a nerf gun. I would have buffed the range to 20M, but also would have not nerfed the .45's range.
-
The fr0g is garbage. It starts losing damage at 10M, and the suppressed version has 1 less bullet per mag. It's still going to be garbage after this patch, just slightly more reliable against CA3 users.
-
This is why the Obeya CR762's damage and range should not have been nerfed. It needed that extra damage and range to fill a niche the N-TEC5 and N-TEC7 did not fill. The whole problem with the way Gamersfirst and Little Orbit do weapon balancing, is that they try to fit weapons into very tight niches, rather than let them be serviceable outside their niche. I don't get their fear of overlapping roles. Let the players decide what weapons work, and then balance the less used weapons around the popular weapons, rather than heavily nerfing them.

I noticed a few blatant cheaters seem to have forgotten how to play.

Climbing fences also causes a large amount of packets to be sent to the server. The only data that should be sent is the player's position when they start climbing, and when they end climbing. Anything else is useless, at least from a performance, optimization perspective. Black line is client to server. Red line is server to client. The two 125+ spikes are when I climb over a fence.
