What are these posts? Copy/paste content from the previous ones, just re-post it? What has changed? What are the exact differences?

Too little too late.

LOL at several people in this thread casually confessing to cheating / using cheats previously. On the more serious note: Why isn't there a system where, if a player receives a dozen of reports from a dozen of different players in a span of 30-60 minutes or whatever, they get temporarily banned from matchmaking / missions / game / whatever, and GMs get notified to take a look at the case and act upon it.

PvE/AI seems not so far away. There were several ChuckyAIxN characters ( N = 1 through 8 ) standing in line in Social EU, almost all of the same rank/threat, and exactly the same costume with regards to the Chucky the killer's outfit. Or just a mass troll.

Social district on EU servers: There are several ChuckyAIxN characters (N = 1 through standing in line, almost all of the same rank/threat, and exactly the same costume with regards to the Chucky the killer's outfit. PvE stuff already introduced or mass troll?

Back at it again, nothing for 20 days...

Another 10 days, more silence. GG

So, they achieved and did nothing for past month? Not anything worth sharing? A newly rendered sphere or whatever? Great. Yes, stinks on the intentional ghosting and soon-to-bail-out period. Too bad. I pop up here and there, but it's going away.

Not even a simple: "Hey, nothing major been going on, bear with us. Thanks, bye." Something, anything. This feels exactly like the period G1 started ghosting the community.

Well, if you compare the two UI designs, you can see they are the same. Old explanation: https://github.com/McSimp/APBWatcher/issues/1#issuecomment-473826354

Another one? Add it to the pile.

Yup, but let's show Best Gore which has mutilation, suicides, murders, tortures, freak accidents Google indexing FTW. (bit off-topic)

@MattScott Awesome news, there was really no need for multiple, region-based world servers. However, I'm all for region-based district servers. So, will we see those language codes in district names come into play? Like: Missions-Financial-EN 1 Missions-Financial-RU 1 Missions-Waterfront-US 1 etc.

Why even keep that amount of customizable options client-sided? Just burn it into the game, and not in the text files that can be altered.

This apology loop seems to have become a common practice. Why don't you, instead, tell us: "Hey, this and that gonna release in September or whatever month, so we can manage to finish and polish everything". Then, when and if you're done sooner, you release it immediately and everyone is happy. This announcing, testing, scheduling then delaying has no point anymore. My 2 cents.

I'm also really bothered when they mention "Patch Notes" in the title, and then there is only one sentence in the thread that has nothing to do with actual patch notes.

Does it worth to learn proper English?

Would it kill you to include a fix or two in such releases as well? Why you call it patch notes when there ain't any notes besides "we enabled easter event"?

Refurbished event, same as previous years, yet they manage to F it up. Good job.

There is a packet named HARDWARE_INFO that gets sent during the login into the APB. That packet contains data about every hardware in your PC that the game can retrieve. It depends how they use this data, though from what I've seen there was never a HWID or a similar "tougher" ban issued here. It's also easy to spoof if you know what you're doing, but since the actual playerbase is little I doubt someone would care to make a spoofer. Bottom line, they just need to use the data that they already have had for long time.

Try using cheats again like you did before, might help you.

So basically, G1 invested 0 effort into PC engine upgrade. Scrubs.

Daily "i got my arse handed over", add it to the pile. @NotZombieBiscuit did i get it right?
