ok thats an interesting detail that was not written in his post, but then this specific thing should be preventet and not streaming in general.

I have read this, I still don't see the bad idea, except for what some players did, nothing was wrong. No need to stop streaming or not having all stuff unlocked, I thinkt hats even good for showcasing and also realising how crap some stuff is for the streaming staff. All I see is that the involvment of CM's thats common in orther game was yet again desteroyed by some Members of the community.

well PVP games are hardly enjoyable when the goal is winning. I remember playing chivalry was fun when the only purpose was toc hop someones limps of from time to time. but the moment it was about seriously trying to win the fun stopped and it turned out to be more "work" than fun. I just fell its very wrong to go and have "fun" again on the expanse of others like dethreathers do. But yes atm this all is also areason I don't play APB that often anymore, way to much "work" or just stomping lowies, because the game gives you like 1 suilver and 3 bronzes. it's mising the truly equal mindset people atm. Thats also why car diversity died. everyone takes the best for just the bit of advantage. make APB great again (but dunno how tbh)

ok waid, I might have lost the thread somewhere, what exact decision was said to be a ba idea? Are we still talking about that streaming?

if you remember the days of threat seggregation, a lot if dethreathrs actually admitted they don't want to be stressed playing against equal golds. Because its a game and they want to enjoy and relax. Its weird because with dethreating they just cause this on others but worse because the skill level isn't even even anymore. It also kinda shows a bit of a very egoistic nature thats within these people. And LO hardly can fix this kind of issue. And the worst part might be that thes people either start cheating or stop playing, which both isn't good too.

the situation was created by the community, wasn't it?

and thats when they finally need to lay fo the "We want everoyne to be happy" attitude and just ignore some of the always complaining ones and just do their thing. We should have streams, and devs shouldn't care about every single member complainign abuot stupid stuff. Stremaign APb means playing with and against other people, and if someoen goes mad because of this should this really mean streams should stop? I don't even care if Lixil gets the max rank all item account, it's not even going to help her much. if she really played with a hacker, well it just shows how easy it is in APB to meet one and how the average person isn't able to spot this. But then its probably LO's job in the aftermath to investigate this. But I hope LO grows enough balls to understand that we soon have no nice things left anymore if they always act like this just because a few guys complain with their hurt ego. Never seen the MWO community cry about this, everyone was just happ if any of the devs were in a battle. But here, OMG conspiracy world dooming actions and flamign happens beyong and scale of measure. Lets please just not lose all this possibilities because of a bitter minority and keep streams happening where devs make missiosn with changing community members so many get the chance to play with or vs them.

The matter is not those who accuse the subject is about you who never saw a cheater in those 1000 hours, so quite obviously you may just not be good at spotting cheaters, and just because someone loses a mission or doesn't plays good doesn't mean he isn't cheating. Not everyone is using the full spectrum of cheats, and some strangely even with rather baltant settinsg still play crap.

Funny how g1 had GM's doing events and players trolled them. Funny how tiggs streamed and got trolled and whatever. It's not G1's fault that communication ended it's how players treated them. And I wonder how long it needs till LO acts the same. And then all these bad people can finally beat the Scapegoat LO for scewing up. For me APB now turned into a social experiment and I just wanna see if LO goes the road g1 did and history repeats or if things happen different and how the bad parts of the community try to screw that up too. other things I expect to die within the next 2 years: Post reactions, Polls.

Why does no one else think that this is a problem? People shouldn't spawn close enough and in LOS to be able to immediately kill someone who just killed them. Ill take 150m spawns over the current system as long as they are consistent and everyone gets them. You shouldn't be rewarded with stupid spawns for dying. Why not? nothing feels better than getting flank mowed down because a guy spanwed 2 secs after you spawned. we definately should get an overhaul and make spawns happen in more hidden places where people can neithe rinstant see objectives nor can be seen by opps.

surely not, also it seems that the majority of those 17k FF bans must have been false bans, because Op never met any of them too.

We just explained that we do have auto bans. you explained they are temp bans, and those are virtually useless.

having charmeleon? funny, there was a weid lag in the forum and only half the post was transmitted :D or it was my brain lagging, who knows.

they’ve already stated that the temp bans are being used in case there’s a mass false ban, at the time of this information they were manually reviewing every temp ban and every single one had been made permanent does not change a single thing about the cheater issue not having changed, and if they want to manually check everyone, good luck, that probably piles up as hard as the current support issue given they investigate this properly, it will take time, and thats gonna be a lot more than people need rerolling. So if we don't get some automated bans on the most basic things even nothing will really change.

temp bans is like, hey dude why not cheat a few times, its fine. wonder how long it needs until the pop is back to pre LO times. bumping it with unbanning all these poeple didn't really improve anything.

well, that would nerf exploits like jumpshooting, but the entire easy to use, hide and pop out for extreme damage mechanics thing would stay and so the meta it is currently in. The question is what the N-HVR's role shuld be. They could give it a good delay of like one second or 1.5 after moving before crosshair even starts deblooming. it would take away a lot mobility as offset to the high damage. But beign behind a wall and doing the popup shootin from a higher location is what really puts the N.HVR in a situation without any counter. there near no time of exposure for the user and he can't be shot by nades if the location doesn't offer a good trajectory to get them there. and thats something that won't change. So whats the role of the N-HVR or better, what should the role be? an low mobility defender role? that could be done. but then the offense capabilities will havily be limited, and that means countering a N-HVR gets harder because obir/obeya have currently no good position. Maybe that would make HVR a bit more wanted again as mobile offensive sniper. Its nearly unused atm. The balance would need various weapons to be changed, given the role LO wants the N.HVR to be in.

this was also possible in the last forum and a reason why it was removed, LO surely soon will do the same.

well once uppon a time ago, obeya had a lower ttk, and during this times ducking behind a regular cover made you expose like 2 rows of pixels. Nowdays a N-HVR can just duck behind anythign making the the long ttk possible with just like 0,2secs time of expose by just crouchpopping. One major reason why an obeya tha needs to land so many shots even if buffed still won't compete. But nerfing obeyas ttk and range then (when the dropoff mechanics changed) the whole obeya/obir to counter snipers mechanics were kinda lost. The change will help with some abusing acts like jump shooting but not with the regular meta sniper hiding gameplay, because on that level stuff is played regular with standin/crouching and shooting at high accuracy anyways.

i fail to see how an 8th gen i7 is low tier for apb lol because 3.6GHZ vs 4GHZ or even 4,4 is not much. Also, try to chekc your temperatures, maybe your system runs much hotter in APB than BF4 and clocks down due to heat.

this (beginnign move) should still work, they said damage is accuracy dependend, and that shot was pretty much with high/full accuracy. So i don't see why this shouldn't work anymore. The later jump shots should do less damage, but how much is a more interesting value to see. might be it still works to kill people often enough if they are predamaged. TBH, the most simple solution would have been making N-HVR not even shootable during jump and done.

hits on cars ar enot client sided, youc an see this when the game is on high latency and car impacts get delayed. but the crosshair blooms, yeah thats really amn odd thing ti feels at times the servers using an entirely different one than me.

Many distances and mechancis just never worked right or were chosen right, they shouldn't work like 120m around objectives or another person. tbh that spawn allowed there is way too close to the mission location

thats the issue, people are willing to spent way too much money for cheating. the only solution would be an anticheat reacting so quick that the process of making an account is too annoying compared to the fun of running around cheating. everythign else will be very much pointless in terms of helping to reduce the cheater problem.

BE isn't supposed to check symbols and clannames. However my doubts in BE's banning qualities are not lowered.

Well, thts a bit weird to make such a change to the N.-HVR as it makes undertsanding wepaon emchanics for newbies even more problematic and not really logical. But lets see how it turns out. Same for the shotguns very strange arcadish concept. however this list misses a LOAD of truly problematic weapons that need change. Also, bring back beacon in OTW, poeple need a test environment which currently doesn't exists, because missions need to start somehow. or make a special fight club mechanic which is a free for all 24/7 missions.
