I'm not quite sure how they're going to detect mouse scripting. What prevents you from configure your macro, install it in mouse and turn off the software. My old deathadder that I'm not using can play any macro on any pc that I installed on the pc with razer software.

New engine won't fix cheating problem. It's not a big deal to dump the game and find offsets. The only problem is an anti-cheat. Btw, Valorant anti-cheat got bypassed in the first day of cbt.

Nerfing certain weapons won't fix the problem of bronze district at all. Matchmaking rework is the only solution that should be done after engine upgrade

I'm not sure is it EAC or just the game is shLt so anyone left but I see much less closets nowadays than during BE, especially when some players from known edgy crim clan got banned in one month together when Citadel had a vacation on NA. Tbh, triggerbots or any script written in autoit or ahk are the only problem for me at the moment. Players who's using it tell me that EAC doesn't detect autoit and ahk in apb for some reason

I want oca having faster ttk because jg is 0.65. As long as it will be nerfed back to 0.7+ I’m okay with current oca, but maybe increase its accuracy a bit. But yeah I agree with everything you said except not balancing shotties around peeker advantage. Cs and valorant have a lot of balance ideas to somehow diminish that problem.

Oca needs a ttk buff due to the current jg has too much fast ttk that makes it the strongest cqc at the moment. In fact shotguns should never have a faster ttk than smg. Before a patch 0.73 jg was killing faster than smg on average because none can track with 90% accuracy when the enemy does a circle strafing. There’s another reason that none mentions why shotguns should be slower. It’s the problem that every shooter suffers from. Peeker advantage. In few words someone who picks from the corner will see an opponent faster than opponent will see him peeking from the corner due to latency. I think you experienced the situation when the enemy shoots you with a shotgun before even becoming visible. I had it many times

I don't think that it should be done like that. Weapon balance should be adjusted depending on how a weapon plays in practical way. For example pmg is 5stk, if it gets nerfed ttk it will become useless and everyone will just switch to shotguns and some ppl who like to aim will switch to oca. It can potentially scale badly. For oca it works like that. I personally prefer to switch to 45ap if a target beyond 15m. Test districts showed that it's a bad concept and scales badly for mid range weapons by making them extremely strong in long range. It made obeya the strongest weapon for mid-long situations. 80m effective range with fast ttk. It wouldn't be a problem if character rendering wouldn't be limited to 100m. That's how it works right now for some weapons. Raptor and nano are basically laser guns but both have slow ttk.

As long as oca will be reverted to pre-LO as shotguns, I'm up for it. You basically read my mind. Shotguns are not only corner kings but also they scale much better when both high skill players meet each other in cqc fight in open area. Shotgun user just doesn't need to track his strafing enemy constantly, just wait until he strafes into your crosshair.

The next best thing will be jg or csg. Both are the strongest cqc. PMG is the only one smg that can compete against them. There's another strong smg manic but it's locked behind JT or Pay wall, so I doubt we will see it a lot. OCA is terrible after ttk nerf. It lacks of accuracy. With the current shotgun balance I'd equate oca ttk with jg and keep pmg ttk as csg.

Aces is not that good against high skill golds who has a good skill at strafing unless you’re a tracking god

Armas will still have weapon. New players who doesn't know about the game anything will think that the game is p2w because of having an experience of other f2p games with p2w stuff

Just wait for a second wave of covid Merged. Fixed for you. With the current business model apb feels like an Asian local game that you can randomly find on the internet. Not gonna lie, weapons except their skins or reskins should not be locked behind pay or grind wall in 2020. I’m not saying that apb is p2w. No, it’s not. But modern popular f2p games contain only cosmetic things in their donation store

Modern warfare and apex both are competitive games, there’re tons of tournaments going in the games.

pretty much how meta works in competitive games. CS has only few guns in rotation, each one for each situation. Valorant has the same mechanic. Valorant has also meta characters that will always be chosen. Apb has few guns and vehicles to be able to compete. If the game is casual then none would whine at op guns that g1 released such as nano/troublemaker/yukon. Casual game doesn't need such amount of balance changes that apb got during its life. GTAV never had balance changes in terms of guns because none cares which weapon is broken and which one is trash in that type of games.

NFA is random mess, only useful if you lick the body of your enemy, Fr0g doesn't really have a fast ttk, it's 0.800 as 45ap

Pretty much how all fast ttk secondaries have been working for entire game life

It’s the feature of Russian players to stay in a dead game. For example, 1.6 online consists of only Russians, css has the same problem. Private servers for mw2 are full of Russians as well. If you start seeing more and more Russians on the international server, well, rip the game then

Typical 255R silvers

It will be fixed by itself when everyone gets matched against equal skill

That’s the reason why we need to wait for phasing system that will hopefully be released after engine update

Tbh, gold doesn’t mean anything in this game because how easily you can get it. But if you can’t hold it then you’re not even close to the average skill ceiling of the game

Yes, it’s true that aim is a big part of apb but if you look at some streams you will see that top tier players started relying more on utilities than on their aim. The obvious utility is a car gameplay that is very op. Some players don’t even fight, they just driving cars with blowtorch and try to kill you when you’re in the bad situation. They won’t leave the car in bad situations just to play for aim. I might be wrong then.

That situation made my friends learning the game in the right direction. Btw, if I remember correctly, I’ve seen your name in asylum citadel, 255r silver running with true ogre and always eating my nades without reading when I’m going to nade you. Don’t think that you’re good in other shooters if you can’t read obvious decisions of your opponents

I’m not sure what games you’re playing but you’re 255R silver if you’re using the same name in game, so I doubt that you have a good skill in other games. My friends from csgo who was global elite got their gold in the first day of trying the game against 255r silver groups running with osmaw/detonators etc. in the bronze district. On the last stage of the first mission they had already figured out that to beat this type of players they have to use different set up, one cqc and one long range and play by assist otherwise they will get farmed by osmaw with car surfers and detonators. If they figured out that fast that they can’t casually play 1v2/1v3 in that game then I’m pretty sure the game is team based

Read my posts, I know that the game is competitive, I was arguing with op
