There are no solutions; only better. The option to forfeit a lost match, instead of wait it out or throw oneself endlessly against opposition that is too good would be worth a potential matchmaking timeout or other penalty to some. The game is too hard on people trying to get into the game; more options for them would make things better for the system.

Related to this, I wonder if there is some type of "forfeit" option. Maybe there are certain conditions where a team could choose to forfeit? E.g., perhaps when there is this imbalance, and then a forfeit option shows up. There are matches I stop playing because it isn't type 1 fun, and it won't even be type 2 fun, win, lose, or draw. I would happily forfeit, so I could get queued up for another match (even if there was a delay penalty for being the forfeiter), or leave the district, without having to wait X minutes.

Matt said so in the roadmap update.

I noticed there wasn't premium when I logged on today.

I may try a clean install of GPU driver, but I got a system where everything was a fresh install. I.e., out of the box. With GPU updates I'm sure after the first time running it. Nice research, in any case.

I went from an RX 590 to an RTX 2070 with noticeable improvement*. *Except for those vertex crashes.

Throwing my issue in here, since it is relatively consistent. Pretty much happens only when the spawn map pops up. I have an RTX 2070 Mobile. 05:20:10 - Log: Timed out while waiting for GPU to catch up.

EAC GoFundMe?

Really good game when there is enough population. Hope that we can get people to join or come back.

I'm with Fortune Runner. The frustration and disappointment all make sense, and people need a place to vent, but complaining about servers being dead is something that will discourage people from playing, and perpetuate the servers being dead. I'm not saying you have to encourage people to play, but players do have an impact regarding whether people join and stay, whether it is a gold rolling over trainees, or constant complaints about low population. It's clear that the people venting are missing the game, and they have an impact, and it could be positive. So, group with a trainee to improve their experience, invite a friend (and vent!), schedule some play sessions with cool people from the forums (like the LAPD group). LO and the majority of players know about low population. None of us are having the experience with this that we had years (or even half a year) ago, and that's required some changes in perception, but we can ride this out, whatever the outcome is, the best we can.

I have a new laptop with a mobile 2070, not super or max-q, and I crash frequently, but I don't see an error message. Is there a way to see what the error is that caused the crash?

What slot vegases? All of them, 3 and 4?

I'm getting into vehicle design more, and need some income to fuel this effort. What kinds of vehicles sell well? I don't want to buy a $1M 4-slot, if what sells more often is the 3-slot, e.g. I keep track of what vehicles are out there when I'm playing, but can't always as easily keep track of how many slots the vehicles have, and not sure that's a good indication of what sells well (i.e., maybe they designed it themselves).

I appreciate the hopeful and positive post. There's no other game that has captured my attention (even if waxing and waning) for so long. "Hope" is not a strategy, but I will do what I can to support them to be successful.

Thank you! Not being able to afford premium, it's really been nice to be able to do all the customization I'd been yearning for all this time, and learn from others.

I popped in like I do every morning, but, today, I have a 3-day Trade Lock and I can't put stuff up for auction. I don't see any emails or other in-game mail or notifications about an issue. Anyone know what might cause this?

This just came up for me, yesterday. A friend wanted to get into a mission-driven 1v1, and we couldn't make it happen in an empty server. We didn't know (or forgot) that it wasn't possible to do 1v1 missions in that manner. I've been in a lot of good missions, but the most memorable have been well-played 1v1s with players with good attitudes. Perhaps it would be nice if there was a way to indicate preference for mission size? Or allow players to specifically challenge each other?

Same issue, multiple computers

To be vague about it, if you don't intend to literally profit from a direct note-for-note, instrument-for-instrument copy of a song, then you'll be ok. It's more complicated than that, but making a song/theme in this game and selling for APB$ should be ok. Additionally, it would be almost impossible to make a duplicate of a song (notes, tempo, etc.) using the in-game editor.

I'm updating this for personal use, asking @StunStick about distribution. Anyone using this, though, and would have some changes they'd like to see?

Don't really want a non-customizable Pioneer, if you're talking about the preset in the store. Given the HP nerf, is the Espacio still better than the T-25?

For Criminal, I'm not fan of the Pioneer that is available. Is that airmech bomber what you are recommending over other vehicles available to criminals?

Having problems again. Basic mouse, not automation that I can think of. Is there at least a way to not kick people from social for "autohotkey"?

Another month, another BattlEye issue. When trying to get into Financial West Bronze on Jericho: "You were kicked by BattlEye for the following reason: 'Bad Service Version'". This started popping up around 9/2. I can get into Social just fine. I haven't tried many other districts, yet. So far, no help understanding this through BattlEye's site. Anyone in the community seeing this message?

So, who would revise their opinion based on the nerf to the top-tier vehicle HP?
