The Open Letter thread should probably be the only pinned thread in Social. The others are better suited forr Announcements. The Battleye thread is no longer applicable since EAC is free and LO do plan on switching back to it. The rest are pointless since we have the ToS. It's not like they enforce it consistently, only when someone says something that would upset Reddit.

Same. You really need to fix the server's infrastructure. Something is screwing up traffic flow. Currently, US East has 20ms ping displayed in game, but the /latencytest shows 66ms. Whenever this happens, there's significantly higher hit registration delay. It's higher than playing on NA West or EU with over 80ms. When both show similar latency, hit registration is fine.

This one Rust server admin would spawn hundreds of bears inside your compound for minor violations. I wonder what the APB equivalent would be?

Mack is off his rocker, but a broken clock is right twice a day. Higher latency players can look like they have more health, due to the broken lag compensation delaying the lower latency player's shots, and the overall latency difference. The teleporting is lag related, but it's easy to trigger and is used by cheaters. Maybe FairFight will be used to detect it. At the very least, players need to be kicked if their connection is too unstable. It's not fraud. It's the equivalent of blocking people from entering businesses. The feds could do something if they felt like it, but seeing how much they screw up every other industry, I rather not have them involved. I think the solution is for people to host their own private servers. Unlike retail stores, the server admins can remove problematic people from the servers without legal repercussions. If games like Rust and CS:GO can do it successfully, I don't see how a game similar to APB can't.

Dude's promoting bloatware at the start of the video. Can't take anything they say seriously.

Only 1 time I've seen NA West run good, but it didn't last long because the district crashed.

I forgot it's not the same titles as they were a few years ago. Can't get the 'Big Rooster' title anymore. The mugging mechanic needs to be fixed. No one has mugged me within range. It also seems to cancel hit registration. Got 6 hit markers with the .45 on a player who just used epinephrine, but they didn't die.

The mugging mechanic needs to be removed. Every time I get mugged it's from a player who is roughly 20M away, probably car glitched. Bunny and chicken men need to be immune to damage to prevent griefing. They also need to stop despawning. PVP needs to be turned off for all players who don't have eggs. Or better yet, just let us buy the rewards for $10. Are you still afraid of making money?

No RSS?

The scoped N-TEC 5 is not used because it's not available for APB cash. It requires Joker Tickets or an Armas purchase. Same with the Agrotech ACES. It's better than the OCA and PMG in terms of accuracy, time to kill, and draw time, but it's locked behind JT or Armas, so most players don't use it. Also, the 'Ursus' fills the same role, and it's technically more accessible since you don't have to grind for joker tickets if you're patient on the marketplace. If that extra 5M is really needed and fast close range ttk isn't needed, the Obeya CR762 makes more sense. I wouldn't call it a con, it's just not good enough to justify spending JT or real cash on. BTW, you can get VAS-R2 'Scepter' NFCP 3, as an alternative. It's the same as the Scoped N-TEC 5, but it has 3 open slots.

All of this confusion will be solved if those stats were listed in game to begin with, like an advanced tab placed above the description.

The scoped N-TEC has slightly better crouch accuracy. Standing it's the same. It also has a lower shot modifier cap, meaning full auto won't bloom as much.

You heard them Matt Scott, ban Spillra for their own mental health.

Turn off height fog: Open HeightFogPixelShader.usf Add " * 4096" to the end of line 49: float DistInFront = length(WorldPosition) - FogStartDistance.x * 4096; Turn off fog volumes: Open APBEngine.ini Change FogVolumes from True to False, on line 1450: FogVolumes=False Enjoy your clean looking APB night time.

It would be the same game, except with tradable skins on Steam.

On Windows, changing m_bUseDiskCache from True to False did stop APB from using the disk, but it didn't have any affect on stuttering. It still freezes during garbage collection, and it often stutters when an opposing player and I shoot at the same time. Turning off texture streaming seemed to help the most with stuttering, but it causes general protection fault crashes. Maybe it will be different in Linux.

I too would like to know what is being worked on. I work in IT. I'm used to dealing with unforeseen problems. Sometimes stuff just breaks.

1b. Change font so capital "I" and lower case "l" appear different, such as Comic Sans. 9b. Make Volcano windup 5x louder and heard from 500M. #4 Sounds like it would be an improvement. I rather have stable higher ping that inconsistent low ping. It would negate the need for a VPN. #7 But then Lilly will be right about the Thumper. We can't have that! #8 Not needed. Shooting too fast already causes ghost shots.

How is reducing the resolution at which players can compare threat making it easier to identify threat? The threat display change was like measuring in millimeters, to measuring in centimeters. There's a huge difference between gold 1 and gold 10, just like there's a huge difference between 31mm and 40mm.

Because I have 14 characters and click on them at random.

I remember it being due to the high server tickrate, but I can't search the old forums to find that post. The servers were set to 25 tps for a long time. I forget if it was G1 or LO who increased it.

The only pattern I've seen is, it only crashes when the district is not experiencing any excessive lag or desync. Could it be a similar to the sliding bug that happens when your client's fps is too stable? Way back in G1 days the vehicle physics would bug out. G1 lowered the tickrate to 25tps to prevent it from happening.

They already tried that with improved rifling. It made it overpowered on mid range weapons, and useless on everything else. I don't get why so many people think the NTEC is OP. It's a little better than the STAR but it's still limited. If anything the STAR needs some tweaks to make it worth renting the slotted versions.

Financial US East just crashed. There was no lag, desync, or any other signs of server issues prior to the crash. Are these actual crashes? DDoS? It doesn't make sense for the servers to spontaneously crash when they're running good, but don't crash when they're running poorly.
