    Removing vivox

    It's kinda pointless since we have text chat. If someone has a mic they're better off using discord since it doesn't crash every other match.
  2. The limits are needed to reduce loading times. What you need to focus on is maximizing what you can achieve within said limits. Here's some tips: Avoid rotating symbols when possible, especially circles. Rotating adds data, and rotating a circle doesn't change how it looks. Reusing the same symbol/decal adds less data than using a different symbol/decal. Don't add clothing items you can't see, like socks under boots and jeans. Clearing a clothing slot deselects your underwear, which frees up a little space.
  3. Quit nerfing weapons. You nerf one, another becomes more viable. You nerf that one, then another. Eventually we're going to have the min ttk of 20 minutes.
  4. For me, west coast servers are unplayable at best. I have constant packet loss. It says 0 packet loss in game, but it's wrong because a large amount of my shots do not register server sided. West coast in APB has always been like this. It's not a new issue.
  5. It looks like a camera with poorly implemented HDR. Rather than gain detail, you lose detail. It's not as bad as what G1 did with the excessive bloom and blue instagram filter, but still how could anyone think this is normal looking?
  6. Ntec needs shovel stock skin.
  7. The DMR-AV and steel plating mods are fine. Most likely what happened was they had a player using blowtourch to repair the vehicle faster than you can deal damage.
  8. East has better latency. West has packet loss.
  9. 1.560 sec time to stun. Swapping that to lethal damage would not make this weapon OP. If a player has time to land 3 hits, they would have killed you faster with any other primary weapon.
  10. With the current district configuration and player population on NA, there is a 25% chance that there is a playable server, 12.5% chance I can rank up. 50% chance I can connect to the populated district due to being gold threat. 50% chance it's a district I need for ranking up my character. 50% chance that the district is on the east coast (West has bad packet loss atm) Then on top of it, the 40/40 player population means I will be fighting the same team every mission due to how matchmaking works. Dethreaters and trolls, who refuse to play the missions, have still not been dealt with. The odds now go even lower that I will get a mission that I gain a reasonable amount of standing in, if I gain any standing at all.
  11. They need to remove the east/west server split too and go back to central servers. It's 50/50 if there's going to be a server available that I can even connect to without desync issues.
  12. Logical solutions on the APB forums? Get out of here with that!
  13. Sure add it. The gun is trash since they reduced the max range on it.
  14. On the forums I don't hear "tick, tick, tick" when someone's rage whispering me.
  15. APB is one of the few games that still has proper sound panning when wearing headphones. I'm really hoping the engine upgrade doesn't screw this up. Seems like all the new shooters base their sound off of TV speaker position, so you end up with sound cutting hard left/right when only turning a few degrees. I have never seen this weapon show up on radar. Besides, G1 broke the radar after adding that weapon.
  16. Currently there's a bug that causes your character to slide instead of stopping if the fps is over 120.
  17. Go to the install directory. Delete the two files "APB Reloaded\Engine\Config\BaseCompat.ini" and "APB Reloaded\APBGame\Config\APBCompat.ini" After that, run a repair from the launcher. If using Steam, verify the game files first. The repair button ignores those files if they were modified.
  18. Why are you not using the Game Updates section to post game updates?

    about shaw..

    Are you using the in game volume slider to adjust your sound? There is a bug that prevents the in game slider from affecting different sounds. The SHAW was one of them last I checked. Use Windows to control APB's volume as a work around.
  20. You can get 60+ fps on hardware that is older than APB with some tweaks. I'm curious what the integrated GPU can do. It gets 80fps average in Fortnite at 1080p.
  21. With my experience when the silver district is populated, the difference is I have to wait around for the mission to end because the opposing team went AFK.
  22. That CPU will get you 100+ fps with a dedicated GPU, but I cannot comment on the integrated GPU. You will need to use the advanced launcher to reduce RAM usage since it's sharing RAM. Get 16GB of RAM for future proofing. Most modern games will eat through 8GB of RAM, and APB will too with the new engine. Make sure your motherboard has the option to disable HPET. It's known to cause low fps in APB.
  23. Equip an HVR-762, stand next to a teammate, and shoot the same players they're shooting at. One of you will get the kill. Use the FBW as a sidearm, or get the RFP-9 if you need a little more range. Would you mind posting your mouse sensitivity settings, including in game and DPI? It could be your sensitivity is too high and it's causing your aim to skip around. Also, what framerate do you get on average in game? Really low framerates, like under 50fps, can affect your aim as well since it will have higher input lag.
  24. Where's that hack that lets you join the bronze district? I would try dethreating but I can't get opp in silver, and creating a new account isn't viable since I won't have access to my 3 slot weapons.
  25. I constantly get placed against players who refuse to participate in the mission. Every time I play APB I run into multiple players who go AFK, ignores the objectives, team kill, suicide, ect. I stopped bothering sending reports because it's obvious they're being ignored. I guess you have to get 1000s of team kills a day for something to be done.
