  1. Hello everyone!

     

    We've included a compensation package on login for those playing on Citadel due to the issues folks have been experiencing.

     

    Please check your mailbox in-game for 250 Joker Tickets on Citadel.

     

    This package will exist until Midnight UTC on Monday.

     

    Thank you all for being patient while we work through these issues, and see you in San Paro!

    The functionality exists in Easy Anti-Cheat, but we have no confirmation from the developers that they integrated the APB /report UI with the EAC reports feature.

    The /report feature has been hooked up to EasyAntiCheat.

  3. Hello, everyone! 

     

    Our standard weekly maintenance for PC and Console will occur this Wednesday (05/03) at 9 AM (UTC). It is expected to last between 4 and 6 hours due to more extensive patching for PC. Check out the supplementary patch notes below! 

     

    Thank you for being patient during this period. 

     

    See you in the game!

     

    Shader modifications have been disabled. Please uninstall any shader modifications made prior to this patch, as EasyAntiCheat will kick you for them.

     

    P.S: The thread has been cross-posted from Game Updates for convenience.

    Previous balance change reduced the 45AP to 35m effective range, falling off to min damage range of 45m. I'm assuming you're referring to the min damage range, which had been intended to be 50m instead? Or is the effective range change being reverted (originally the gun had 40m effective range) and then buffed further?

     

    Previous changes (old / new):

    591628bbf859f3a36cf6decfcf798c42.png

    • The weapon now starts at 35m (fRampDistance 3500) range dropoff, and the value refers to the range in which the weapon's damage will decrease. So effectively, the weapon will have a drop off until 45m (1000 more than 3500)
    • We intended to make the range 35m + 15m (fMinDamageRange 1500) at first, making the range 35m to 50m (3500 + 1500).
    • During deployment, an experimental change that was being tested on OTW was not reverted and made it to live that made the range 35m + 10m (fMinDamageRange 1000)
    • However, due to how the pistol actually performed with a fMinDamageRange of 1000, we intended to keep the Colby .45 in the state it ended up in, as it was actually more in line with how we intended the dropoff range to function with our nerf.

  7. Hello everyone,

     

    Today a new patch went live on PC. You can find the Patch Notes below or on the website

     

    BUG FIXES:

    Fixed one of the two ways in which Joker Ammo machines can duplicate their audio. Valentine's Day 2023 titles have had their proper pink flare applied to the title.

     

    NEW CONTENT:

    Joker Store changes: Added the following early progression mods for purchase with a rank requirement of None:

    • Kevlar 1
    • Kevlar 2
    • Kevlar 3
    • Clotting Agent 1
    • Clotting Agent 2
    • Clotting Agent 3
    • Happy Landings 1
    • Happy Landings 2
    • Happy Landings 3

     

    These mods are available for 3 Day or 7 Day leasing. This is an experiment for additional Joker Store content aimed at new players, or veteran players who wish to buy these items on their alts that may not have completed progression. The hope is that a small purchase price or grind is preferable to 'sludging through' early progression where you may not have these modifications available. If this experiment is successful, we will expand this system in the future to rentals of Weapon and Vehicle modifications. We will be monitoring feedback after this patch.

     

    Joker Store Character, Weapon, and Vehicle modifications have a new pricing scheme across the board. Existing "Tier 4" (or 195+) mods are unchanged and the math for previous tiers is based on the existing 'most expensive' Tier 4 lease. Existing Joker Store Character, Weapon, and Vehicle modifications now contain 3 Day lease options that are slightly less discounted compared to their 7 Day counterparts.

    New pricing scheme:

    Tier 1:

    3 Day = 100 (new), 7 Day = 150 (new)

    Tier 2:

    3 Day = 120 (new), 7 Day = 185 (new)

    Tier 3:

    3 Day = 140 (new), 7 Day = 215 (new)

    Tier 4:

    3 Day = 160 (new), 7 Day = 250 (unchanged)

     

    UN-VALENTINES

    VDay 2023 has ended. We're no longer seeking love, and have gone back to normal City Security Act business, which is a lot less lovely.

     

    KNOWN ISSUES:

    There is still one method in which a Joker Ammo machine's looping audio may break, and we are investigating.

     

    FUNCTIONALITY REMINDER:

    • POWER USERS: With the release of 1.30, you are now able to adjust your clients' frames per second (FPS) cap on your own. We do not currently have a UI for this functionality, however, you may manually adjust specific configuration files.
    • Launch APB: Reloaded at least once after you have installed the 1.30 update.
    • Close the game.
    • Navigate to your APB install directory.
    •      For Steam users, this is located at C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common by default.
    •      For GamersFirst users, the folder is located at C:\Program Files (x86)\GamersFirst\Binaries\APB Reloaded\ by default. Within this folder, navigate to "Engine\Config" after patching the game, and open the file called "BaseEngine.ini".
    • Within this file, search for the following section: [Engine.GameEngine]
    • There are two cap types that are able to be modified in this file: "MaxClientFrameRate", and "MaxSmoothedFrameRate". Both of these correspond to the "Smooth Framerate" option in the game's in-game options.
    • MaxClientFrameRate may be 0 (uncapped), or any value above MaxSmoothedFrameRate.
    • MaxSmoothedFrameRate may be any value up to 128.
    • Raising your FPS cap above 145 will worsen existing issues related to running above 128 fps worse – although a common bug known as sliding will happen if your fps is too stable at your current selected cap.
    • Additionally, there is an issue related to high framerates that causes your crosshair to expand with an inaccurate accuracy value. However, this is a purely visual bug, and does not actually affect accuracy.

  10. Unfortunately, there will be no restarts during weekend unless either me or my co-worker have free time to do it on our day off. The game is COMPLETLY free, there is no revenue for company at all and the reason why servers are up is for the players as our CEO stated in his post when we were opening the game.

     

    Regarding Customer Support, they are replying on tickets, however, discord concernes should be forwarded to the discord team (mods, CMs). 

     

    Regarding the game being unstable in January, that is unfortunately due to the community exploiting a bug that was crashing the servers (which is fixed now). Maintanance runs every Monday and Wedensday 11:30 CET, and restarts happen, Tuesday, Thursday and Friday 11:30 CET and Monday to Friday 23:30 CET. These times have been announced to the community.

     

    If there are any questions feel free to ask. ^^


  11. Heya,

     

    I can reply to the questions that I know answers to.

    - Game being unplayable on weekends - Whenever I can do restart on my days off I do hop on and try to do it. Most weekends however I do spend with my family without access to PC so it's on a harder end.

    - Down without warnings - In this case it's when server crashes and there's no way to predict when that happens. We have two weekly restarts that happen one in morning one in evening, everything other than that means server crashed and we get to it as soon as we see that it happened/get hoped by players.

    - See reply above.

     

    Regarding warning users on discord, I passed on the information to team who is in charge of discord to see what can be done there, I wasn't aware there were issues there.

     

    I personally myself always like hearing feedback from players and try and see how I can make it more interesting for you guys. It takes time as I have other projects that I have to do as priority but I always try and make sure that FE has at least events enabled. I do read everything that you guys want and do, Ritual, Knits and I then try and figure out how to implement that.

  12. Clones, your immediate attention is required.


    The first contact with a large pack of underdwellers known as "Whom" appearing on the outskirts of the Grand Canyon has been confirmed. Just like the same time in the previous year, we expect them to be closely followed by the sasquatch-rated mutant "Grunch." The ever-diligent patrols work around the clock to reduce their numbers, but the truth is, we have a holiday crisis on our hands. Agent Cindy Loom has arrived with an unyielding holiday spirit more information on the potential sightings of the Grunch.

     

    From 21rst December till 4th January, receive your tasks from her at the following locations:

    • Deadfall (5527405 5105450)
    • Kaibab Forest (6524573 5214506)
    • Northfields (4482171 5508380)
    • Plateau (4680480 4135025)

     

    Bring her the evidence that Grunch will no longer steal the holiday season in Grand Canyon, andyou will be rewarded for your efforts.


    It's the season.


    Happy holidays!
