They've done a few cleanups on accounts with less than 24h playtime. I just don't see a need.
-
How can they even detect separate accounts? Many players share a PC but use different accounts, because account sharing was also a violation of the ToS.
-
It was tanking due to Reloaded's stagnant development. There was nothing interesting for old time players, and customization is so limited without premium that most players get discouraged and leave. Besides, I had no problems finding unique names, you people really lack creativity. There was 1 name out of the dozen or more I used that was already reserved.

This is only an option for veteran players who have all random mission rewards unlocked. Even then, you'll burn through them faster than you receive if used once per mission. When mobile spawner was first added, you could see the vehicle on the map no matter where it was. I felt this sort of balanced car spawner because you could track enemy players positions when they were driving. It also let you hunt down those players who intentionally hide from the VIP team.

They made the equivalent of a mob deal with a BR company to block all BR IP addresses from connecting to G1's servers. After that, they merged servers and many BR players lost their original character names because they couldn't sign in. But to you, letting them be able to connect again was the bad part.

Is an AMD APU GOOD for apb and what fps should i expect ?
BlatMan replied to loldeath's topic in General Discussion Archive
Then there's definitely something wrong then with your PC or network. I get some packet loss when it's on mitigation, but otherwise it's low enough that it shows 0. -

Dude, it shows 40/40 right there on the map. I even did a double take thinking I accidentally joined the wrong district. -
FPS drops and objects pop ups
BlatMan replied to wayofthinking's topic in General Discussion Archive
The rendering distance is 100M for players, vehicles, and pedestrians. Some buildings and other random objects stop rendering at about 50M, or switch to lower LODs. This is normal. It was done to reduce server load so the server doesn't have to send as many updates for players outside 100M. This also significantly reduces GPU load so players with low end hardware can play. The weapons are also balanced within these bounds. -
What are your thoughts/opinions on the Norseman weapons?
BlatMan replied to Kino's topic in General Discussion Archive
Pay to lose. -
It's overpowered in Asylum, in missions it's kind of useless. I think they should remove the windup and change the rate of fire to the n-fas. It would make it viable in missions, but not overpowered. It would also reduce the fps drops from all the excessive smoke and blood produced by shooting it.
-
Left clicks with all guns > gets spammed with whispers claiming I'm macroing. If a weapon is overpowered when fired at it's max rate of fire, the weapon's stats need to be adjusted, or other weapons need to be brought up to par. Making every weapon automatic would end this whole macro/scrollwheel nonsense.

Ya, all those sites you shouldn't visit probably loaded multiple coin miners on your system. 120fps is easily done on newer CPUs. You sure you don't have smooth framerate or vsync enabled accidentally? Maybe your GPU is stuck on 2D clocks. How about a 1440p video? -

Stop watching all that free porn. My X5690 (i7 990X equivalent) was end of life in 2011. It still runs APB near the 121fps limit most of the time. It rarely dips below 100fps. It's overclocked, but still slower than the 7700K. Any second gen Intel i5 or newer over 3Ghz should run this game near it's max fps limit. AMD's Ryzen line should also have no problems. I would not get an APU though. They share the CPU memory and are not powerful enough for APB's particle system. One perc and you're fps will tank. -
We should get a loyalty reward that unlocks symbol layers. I find it really strange that you need premium to fully customize your assets even if you spent $10.000 on Armas. It's basically a kick in the teeth.

Game is not balanced (Pro enforcer)
BlatMan replied to Musul Man's topic in General Discussion Archive
The only advantage enforcers have is that they need more kills to get P5. The LTL weapons are annoying but once you know they have one you can easily avoid it. -
Will you guys wipe the unmerged names?
BlatMan replied to Swibby's topic in General Discussion Archive
Which shows just how poorly they handled the merge. -
OP, why you hating on the golds? Option 5: All districts are handled as Open Conflict districts with a few exceptions. The matchmaking system attempts to match teams based on number of opponents. 2v2, 3v3, 4v4, etc. If not possible it switches to matching teams with 1 player missing. If that's not possible, it matches anyone. Same applies to backup, but with a limit of 6 players per team.

BlatMan replied to Swibby's topic in General Discussion Archive
When Reloaded did the merge, they went by which characters were active in the last month, not who created the character first or which character had the longest hours played. Most likely someone on another server used that name and signed in once during that time period. Even on my storage account I had two characters with the same name. The one that was created first and played the longest was the one that was required to get a name change. -

At least finish merging the unmerged accounts so we know which names are already taken. Currently you cannot add unmerged players to your friends list even though they are in the database. -
It's locked at 101fps for monitors with lower than 120hz profile, and 121fps for monitors 120hz or higher. Note that you don't need a +120hz monitor, just the profile in the driver to trick the game. I assume the other person was being sarcastic, but you can crank the fps limit higher by modifying the game's memory. I have no idea if FairFight would detect this so I haven't checked if it still works. Old screenshot:

It looks like you used the advanced launcher and set a bunch of things low. I would try resetting the ini files. Even if you didn't use it they might of been corrupted. I would also try doing a fresh install of your garphics drivers. - Go to APB's install directory. Then go into "APB Reloaded\APBGame\Config." - Delete APBCompat.ini, APBEngine.ini, and APBMachineOptions.ini. This will reset all of your graphics settings in game. I'm playing on a CPU that was END OF LIFE in 2011. Still get 110+ fps on average. I do get the slight stutter every minute due to the garbage collection, but otherwise it runs fine.

[Poll] RTW's artstyle or G1 Engine 3.5 artstyle?
BlatMan replied to IAmDisappointSon's topic in General Discussion Archive
If we could have the original RTW visuals but with the bloom toned down it would be perfect. I don't care for realistic visuals, I prefer something that's easy on the eyes. -
In PUBG, battleye does not check config files. Some files are ignored by the game itself but otherwise there are no issues. Also, if Battleye detects a modified file, it simply stops the game from launching, and dsiplays an error message displaying what it blocked. You only get banned if it detects a known cheat. I doubt APB will function differently.

What about getting notoriety 5 and camping the high school roof?

Deleting The Music Theme Folder Will Get Me Banned?
BlatMan replied to TheTankBal's topic in General Discussion Archive
There should be an option to turn off custom player music.
