not the volunteer ones we get in future and yet theres just jobs not being worth it :P.

yep, sadly true, and they very much know they post intentionally in the wrong section. poor moderators having to deal with this Kindergarden.

Don't worry, at some point some members will start a like farming madness and then the system will be removed as G1 did it. It's just one of these nice things in the "we can't have nice things" section.

in a far far future, 70% of various anti cheat software, 30% APB.

I am alread ypast my "need JT" part in APB, so I don't know whats currently possible to gather, but 700JT's for 7 days lease of a legendary should be ok?

he can't watch as much pr0n as BE could gather xD

this could be solved by adding all JMB guns to the joker store so people can test them.

I really hope the best, but honestly, they have underestimated a lot. in fact 3 things already: The cheaters as visible in OP. The ticket flood, which extended past their expectations. And the forum behavior, which led them to delay the GM recruitment annoucnement. Now I hope they have not underestimated the other technical parts of APB, especially in regards to the engine upgrade and serve rperformance/lag fixes. GL with the testing LO.

depends how BE can be implemented your OS does track quite a few thinsg about when and who alters a file. So there is that, that could reveal it. BE iss aid to be very intrusive, so it surely has ways (and will impelmented in ways) to figure out such simple things. btw https://store.steampowered.com/eula/eula_113400 (if they are still the up to date ones) " 3.1.3 modify the Game or any files forming part of the Game in any way not expressly authorized by Reloaded; " so theres that we can use the AL because it was expressely authorised

yes could happen, its still a difference if those things get altered through the ingame or by any other user directly in the File, so yes it COULD happen, because you do stuff you aren't supposed to do. @SImilarities if the client doesn't listen all consequences are his own fault, thats liek your warranty being gone because you opened your laptop within Warranty time which you were not supposed to do. This is just how it works, and just because youc an open it and probably do undust it yourself, you never should do so, not if you expect warranty to stay for those 3 years. Just because they have not enforced anythign before simply doesn't means they won't in a future. Thats the danger many might run into, And "but you never acted against it" isn't a workign excuse then.

anyones stance is irrelevant to this.

Thats still not the way it works, don't TOS say do not alter files? So there is your disallowance. if people still fiddle around with and get probably banned thats their own fault and claiming "but I cna edit it so it must be allowed" isn't going to help at all. Sorry but thats the wrong mindset and wrong logic, you are as a user not uspposed to do stuff outside the runnign application just because you do does not make it correct or your logic true.

being common =/= supposed to be done. inis exist because devs can easily be adjusted without interacting in the code. What ini settings are supposed to be altered by the user is usually reachable trhough an ingame setting. Yes devs can lock them, but not locking them doesn't equal an allowance for the user to adjuts it at his will. being able to =/= being allowed to =/= supposed to do these 3 can have a connection but don't necessarily imply each other in any way.

No, its the onyl money sink the game has. however cars could indeed need some adjustment in their tax as opposed to symbols and music they aren't free to get and put in marketplace. If g1 would remove the tax we all woudl just see prices skyrocketing due to inflation of money. If statues would be like symbol boards people would buy them to place their avatars in districts, unfortunately they disappear and are only active in the one district you activate them. But they could be another money sink.

Queen, your defense vs remote detonator is your eyes and some nades to pop the car. over the entire time RD existed I got blown up like 5 times. Just dont walk around blindly.

yeah the pop shooting with snipers is a really dump mechanic, its way too efficient and makes defending in a TPS game absolutely BS. should not exist that way.

thats the problem with the rank 195 locked ones, all mods once wer elike rank 30 at max (iirc) and that is kinda fine, but when they made the new mods they slapped this high R195 requirement. I do also think it's time to remove that high rank requirement.

I am quite sure cheaters cause more traffic, I doubt our local games know the locations of ALL cars and all other characters at any time, so someone moving faster causes more information being trasnferred because he comes across more poeple and objects at the same time a regular person does. Thats also the reason why car meetings screwed up the server performance, because suddnely more people at the same time in the same spot causing more updates at the same time. so the amount of items to be updated does matter and running across more items in the same time means updating more. How serve this more traffic is towards screwing up the server, thats somethign I am not sure about.

I don't think so. G1 did already merge servers, so merging does work. Creating one character masterserver where characters are stored would therefore work. and individual districts can run on local servers around the world.

I am not sure but I soemtimes think cheaters have a much higher imapct on ruining a servers performance. esepcially when they may speedhack.

poeple would still use the TPS camera and just aim at people behind them, this isn't going to fix stuff.

thats liek most pvp events and pvp battlegroudns look in many MMO's because they are just badly designed.

Who said that the available status is being locked away WITH them and have the key thrown away. thats a very fishy result. But in the end, how muich would it differ if those 100 people Life aroudn you and your family where they can still pose a threat to you (which is similar to be locked away with them) but also your family relatives and friends? The only difference is "hope", the hope that this stuff won't happen to your and your family, because gladly the world is rather big. But it doesn't negates the threat, it just lowers the chance for you as an individual. But not overall across the society. well the quote was a generalisation so it has general meaning which would just not end at "misbehavior" it would even go as far as murder. And yet what you call just "misbehavior" is a companies buisness beeing impacted negatively and can even ruin a game and the company + the living that the employees make out of their job at that company. This kind of cheating differs a lot from a player just cheatind and ruining his own singleplayer experience. And APB has not just a few cheater, remember the list of 200names they gavem, and how they said the real number is serveral times as big? https://apbreloaded.gamersfirst.com/2014/07/fighting-fair-in-apb-reloaded-with.html cheaters have a big part in what ruined APB and affected the employees as well. Their impact went much further than just misbehavior. Their only advantage is that yet cheating and impacting companies buisness is no real crime and too hard to track and punish.

and there is also a reason why some of these values are not adjustable by the GUI, because they are not usuually supposed to be changed by the user

of course not, but would you bring greather threat to the society and deny justice for 100 just to prevent injustive at one individual? The quotes raw speaking is not situational, and surely, cheaters are just chaters, and shoplifters are just shoplifters, but when we talk about real serious peopel we would let free. How much evil would we weight this single Life to be worth?
