  1. I'm not sure if this is a joke or serious... but I'm quite sure LO already stated they will rework the threat system if not scrap it entirely?
  2. This is true, but still incomplete. If for example a subject is controversial and you have a large number of people both agreeing and disagreeing, being able to give only likes means that at first look the post looks like popular, even if maybe it isn't. Of course proper criticism is necessary, but that can be said in all cases not only for disliking. In my personal opinion forum trolling might be easier when you can see who to target, coming from the experiences of other forums that adopted similar systems. In general I feel a simple clean and anonymous mechanism like that of reddit or imgur is the best trade of functionality and risk.
  3. I always felt the system of "only likes" is simply unbalanced and pointless. But then again, I don't think all that karma thing has any big impact on the community. Though I would prefer if dislikes were anonymous. Knowing how childish people can be, if a member gets a downvote they will most likely go give downvotes back to that person just for revenge.
  4. I keep APB installed at all the times just for the random times it is worth to check I must say the servers feel a little more alive lately, but there is no change yet.
  5. Quick and to the point reply! The new management is really showing here Thank you for clarifying this point before it could degenerate, as it is a rathet delicate subject related to APB.
  6. I'm really hoping what he said about the joker boxes not being tradeable was just a phrase he didn't think well and that he will reconsider deeply. While I do agree the gambling part is annoying and should be tweaked, the trading of legendary guns is a huge piece of the game that mantains it alive. Free players see it as a chance to obtain permanent weapons which is one of the few barriers that keep the game from becoming p2w. For other players it's a way to earn in-game money without grinding for months, and it also gives a long-term objective to players who want to collect them all in the locker. Making such weapons not tradeable will kill all of that. And unless they plan on a huge rewamp of the weapon lease and unlock mechanics, they really should avoid it.
  7. To be fair in most Europe traffic lights are just as they are in game. And as previously said, the dev team was from UK, so the game has been made with the European look in mind. I think they are placed correctly, no need to change them.
  8. Not gonna lie, but not all helpful experienced players are "golds" TBH I just hope they will scrap the current threat system and change it so that veterans and new players aren't divided in different districts but still keep the gameplay balanced.
  9. I mean, it's sure a nice tribute to LO, but I can't say to have found the video worth it. 11 mins of... just the same character over and over? Variety man! The point of APB is how unique each and every player is.
  10. I agree before beginning to add stuff, the game really needs to get rid of all the bad items G1 added. Lets return to the basics, and then slowly rebuild the game content it needs.
  11. I think it would be a good idea to have veteran players who aren't assholes be recognized for helping. New players could have some reference points to ask stuff and receive help without trollers just giving random answers.
  12. TBH if you ignore the bad servers rubberbanding the game has some of the best "realistic" driving mechanics still today. Many games are a lot worse when it comes to vehicles...
  13. Will there be improvements to the HUD of the game, especially related to health and stamina? As it is now the game gives a very poor understanding of those two stats, which puts new players often in a difficult situation (and doesn't contribute at all about the infamy of cheaters who don't die or kill you too fast).
  14. Making joker box guns not tradeable is literally turning the game into a p2w, I don't understand how could they even consider such option. You either leave stuff like it is now or scrap entirely the loot boxes system and add another in-game mechanism to buy said weapons.
  15. The real top tier car is an enforcer Calabria customized like the basic criminal car. With stealth and radar mods that thing can be parked right under objectives without ever being noticed by the opponents Plus Nitro on it makes it surprisingly quick, while still enough nimble to run over players with ease.
