    I miss when Tiggs was flaming banned cheaters who were crying on forums and begging to be unbanned... it was the golden age of APB drama... that and FFbans,,, what a forum!~ Alas, all the snowflakes melted and LO killed the game.

    Memories are always pink.

    do that and dethreating will be back.

    Then base threat on kills and not mission score.

    Literally it's in the word: "Threat". Threat doesn't mean i can open doors and windows, or i can steal cars, "threat" means i can give you a shit time.

     

    Also:

    The problem with dethreating is not that it happens, but that it leads to bronze players being forced to play against high(er) threat golds in bronze/silver costumes. Your solution: Just let them play against them regularily so nobody can complain any more.

    I used to share your opinion. But not now. The problem is with the matchmaking rules. Due to the wrong selection of opponents, the game is losing popularity. Because of the wrong selection of opponents, people scream about cheaters.

     

     

    They had 10 years to fix this problem TEN YEARS! How many JMBs and "weapon/equipment rebalances" have occured over that time BUT LITERALLY NOBODY HAS THOUGHT ABOUT FIXING THREAT?

     

    To be honest i am not even suprised with this gutter-community advising them. Of course it's not something that's suitable to keep new players but satisfy the requests of the paying dipshits in their deep gold.

    The reason why you don't see as many cheaters in arma 3 is because its pop is small and the ppl who do cheat on arma 3 often do things that will get them a manual ban very quickly (nuking entire servers). All mainstream kernal anti-cheats(EAC, Battleye, and Vanguard) work in very similar ways and they all can be circumvented. The only way to stop cheating is to make anti-cheats more intrusive and or actually hire people who know how cheats work and what they look like(machine learning/ai isn't a good option either look at csgo with vacnet which literally doesn't function properly and will only flag the most blatant stuff which overwatch already would get/catch). 

    At this very moment Steam lists 7136 active players, not sure APB ever had so many people online at once, maybe back in 2013-ish. I do agree they are not all piled up on 10 servers or such so the likelyhood of coming across a cheater (also due to the less competitive nature) is a lot smaller.
    Additionally ArmA cheats are based on internal scripts and are not primarily concerned with aim (which would be very hard to code anyhow since it would have to calculate distances and bullet dropoff) there is a good chance you will not even notice that there even IS a cheater. That said i know enough people who got themselves banned from ArmA permanently for using fishy exe files - of course they claim they are legit, but with 3 VAC bans on record they could just as good claim they are they emperor of China. So you can cheat on ArmA, but you are running on borrowed time because as soon as that cheat gets figured out you are done for.

    BattlEye is nowhere near as aggressive and strict as it could be in APB, and i am not sure why they set it like that.

    Well I'm no authority on anti cheats, just going by what I've heard 3rd hand, but I do know this, Whatever it does, they have ways around it. either they disable the program or the 3rd partys have written around it

    They DO publish information if you care to learn and understand it, and what you will learn from there will probably tell you that BattlEye is running on the lowest possible setting in APB. If you look on the starting page ironically they open up with PUBG which is one of the most cheated games in recent history followed by Rainbow Six Siege and ARK which are also in the list. But then there's also ArmA which has probably the lowest cheater population because it's just on a much sharper setting with BattlEye than the previous games (it's also less competitive and therefore not as tempting presumably).

    Either way BattlEye CAN do a whole lot more and be a lot more efficient than it currently is in APB.

    Annual report? 

    The information you were actually looking for:
    No, LO won't be publishing the Engine Upgrade. And without the EU APB is dead. APB is dead. Playing with corpses is called necrophilia. You are a necrophile.

    Happy?

     

    Just play the game. Or do something better.

    Matt said they'll start working on financial after the social is done, so the status is work in progress.

    Bruh, for sure you also believe that McDonald's is healthy because they said so in their commercials.

    Battle Eye does nothing for in-game cheating, it only deals with dds and client side ping issues. 

    It will dump U if you have ping or cable issues. Its all between client and the log in server. 

    It does nothing for aimbot, macro, teleport, lag bot, n all the rest. n what ever it does do,

    they have probly found a way or have 'Written around it by now. 

    That would be the most inappropriate use for BattlEye ever. It is supposed to monitor and compare even heuristically running processes on your machine for possible cheats.

    I could be wrong, but altogether the population numbers are the same as before the segregation removal, if not even slightly increased. I don't think anything, population wise, will change soon.

    Yes, of course. No need to worry. Grab a bag of popcorn and enjoy this:

     

     

    Oh, and while you're at it, contemplate the meaning of why those districts were so empty to begin with...

    You clearly don't, considering you think this intended game mechanic is a glitch.

    The idea that in a shooting game movement controls should be prioritized higher than firing controls is just stupid and out of touch. So, call it intentional, but it's still dumb and therefore should be fixed.

    The problem here is not really the matchmaking, even though it should serve those yellows hell, but the fact that it's  pre-made groups. Why they can't play on silver district with a group like this i will never understand, but that's APB for ya.

    Oh, and the other problem is that there are so many bronzes in bronze district... yeah sounds weird, but it's true.

    If that ever happens im sure most would look at the code, then go: Nooooooohhoooohohohoho nononono noohohoho      no

    Never underestimate the ingenuity of modders. They fix broken games, develop workarounds for hardcoded bugs, no telling what they can do with source code. That said, it would take so much work in rewriting the code for address information, retrieval of data, protection of back-ends, etc. etc. etc. that it seems like an impossible job.

     

    But then again, never underestimate the ingenuity of modders.

    the even bigger irony is that gta online is actually alive

    Yeah, but it's mostly deathmatching. GTA:O is one of the biggest missfires ever released by a game dev. Basically nobody plays this game the way its intended on public lobbies, and those that do ( like myself ) find sneaky tricks to keep the unpleasants out.

    so wich steps are we going to take to make this game change? i m curious.

    PROTECT THE BLOODY BRONZES BECAUSE THEY ARE THE FUTURE IF THIS GAME IS TO HAVE A FUTURE. Which it probably wont because they neglected this problem dutyfully since 2012.

    If the goal is to make it as optimized as the live version the hardest part just begins. Even if they half the quality, it probably still won't run as well as the current version. 

    If it's only "as optimized as the live version" then... oh my god.

    Anybody got any tips on making arrests with stabba when you're not in a 1v1? These things are weak as crap.

    If playing Stabba was easy it would ruin the game. Now already there salty tears about how quickly you can get stunned and how slowly stamina regenerates (and i can fully understand them but that doesn't mean i think it should be weaker either). Stabba is pretty much in the right place as it is now, consider making arrests a challenge - because that's the whole idea.
