How can you stop cheats? You provide one comprehensive update to anti-cheat knocking out 90% of the most widely used cheats. Creating this update took 6 months and an in-depth research in the methods used to circumvent the protection. Within one week cheaters will have bypassed your update and are cheating again. Do you see the problem here?

Been like this forever. Bring back segregation, modify threat-rank factors to be purely kill based, absolutely screw players who are not in the appropriate district in matchmaking, absolutely screw players who are facing a lower threat group in matchmaking. Will still be toxic.

It's really hard to "fix" people creating cheats for your game. For every loophole closed 2 more open up. The big commercial cheat creators have abandoned APB, whether that is because its so hard to create cheats now or because it just doesn't pay any more i can't say.

Come on Little Locust. The wheat field has on average 300 straws. You have the mandibles needed, and the hunger and devourment Knowledge to take this harvest, remaster and remake it in a way that benefits you and the people. You can take the failings of natural grain and create something great out of it. Look around you, Show me ONE wheat field with the fertility levels of this field and the water supply of northern europe. You can't. Unless the there will be a drought in europe this year and this field is over-fertilized, There is hopefully nobody who will hold a Candle to it. Start over. Become a Phoenix before someone else does Little Locust. Make the superior Version of this crop field that we all long for. More straws, Less weeds, etc.

Why would anyone buy anything at this point? The old engine is worthless, it would have to get re-created from scratch - which means any potential buyer would be better off investing their dolla into people that can make it work rather than some age-old code which can be easily replicated in functionality.

It is unique.

I beg to differ. There is at this point no game worthwhile (much less on Unreal Engine or comparable) utilizing Crypto Currencies and NFTs to their actual capacity. That said, i agree that LO is probably not going to be the company that will change this. If they wanted they could have taken steps to put APB on such a crypto economy with legendary weapons, clothing, weapon skins, symbols, etc. as NFTs and APB$ as exchange-traded crypto currency. Also great name choice LO, "STFU" is about the best name abbreviation one could imagine.

When you consider APB your "home" you probably live in the PRC or some other really cold place.

Bring it back to 2012. Also bring back the menu from then with the old music. The file is still there it's used in character creation. Or at least bring the old music into the abortus we have now as login menu.

That removal of threat segregation sure helped keep the population up. ...my brother in Stalin.

Is that you saying their anti-cheat was actually working?

Something is better than nothing hmm. Funny how they got back on that crossplay train. Right now i don't know how much profit they make from console players, but pitting PC players against console gamers is cruel... Especially when the AC isn't working reliable 1000%. Just go and see how average mouse-players slaughter pad-players in aim-assisted lobbies in GTA5. I don't share the sentiment that this will spell the end of APB (surprisingly), it seems more realistic to upgrade and migrate the current game - crossplay could bring a bigger population into the game temporarily. If they don't butcher it. Let's see... At least it's realistic.

Listen to me: There was no way at all he would have been able to tell whether my aim was exactly on him or not unless he had something running that told him. But since you can say with certainty that "No such cheat existed" i suppose you must know from first hand experience, yes? Have you tried them all? Merged. You are not making any sense my friend, more likely you went into this argument with a preconceived idea of how such a system is supposed to work without understanding how it would actually work. I am no hacker or big programmer by any means, my knowledge in programming is limited to some scripting for various games, being a script-god in LSL, and some work in MT4 and 5, but if you give me access to a tool that extracts those variables from the game i can write you a dodge script easily and when you bind it to a toggle or hold key it will not make anything unplayable at all.

It absolutely could be, but even the mangiest of cows needs to be fed in order to produce.

Sucks for you guys, but at this point merging Jericho and Citadel on a UK server may have been a better solution than removing threat districts altogether. The removal of threat districts will only slow down the decay of Jericho by a few months, but it accelerates it massively on Citadel.
