  1. The game has been frankensteined too much over it's lifetime. I, for one, hope this game, or at least it's unique genre of gameplay, outlives its' ownership by LO and co. and moves into the next territory of gaming.

     

    At this point you can't say the developers haven't tried everything. Hell, even I had a spat with Revoemag over the negligence of what the community wants (i.e. APB Vendetta), but to be fair, I think what we all wanted was just a giant spotlight on our game so it could finally be completed. I'm going to give the game one last season of Gurren for my own personal interest and hopefully end on a level of satisfaction that ensures closure.

     

    Take care,

  2. One thing that concerns me when it comes to the terminology of weapon balance is which category of balance is truly being promoted. I truly think any type of weapon redesign or impromptu weekly balances really needs to sit on the backburner until all missions are adjusted to an agreeable standard. Certain mission endings can be dictated very early on to us veteran players and I would love to see a redesign around the system notifying a player of what exactly their role is in the mission or objective.

     

    One fundamental change I would bring to missions is hacking satellites. This just isn't something incredibly physically demanding to a human being and I for one am tired of watching a 45 second circle of imminent doom while being an open target on a rooftop. We could take bits and pieces of missions or roles of a mission and really iron out the wrinkles with this game, make it more engaging and fun. I believe if we did this and prioritized it a ton of weapons would come back into the spotlight on their own.

    Yeah.. most likely, but you gotta consider that there's effectively 3 companies working through the engine upgrade already, and how much of a spaghetti code APB is.

     

    A second cook can't just continue the meal someone else started, and a third will certainly ruin it, so they've basically restarted from scratch.

    This thread is redundant, and topics like this tend to divulge into pointless analogies or arguments. The reality is all you can do is keeping eating the BS they are feeding you or turn a blind eye to it and hopefully your wallet too.

     

    When vacationboy comes back I imagine it will go something like this: "Hey guys we did all this work and got nowhere, the team got exhausted dealing with it but they were able to enjoy their holidays and come back to work fresh, so maybe definitely probably this year we do the engine upgrade!!!" 

     

    EDIT: Sorry let me address something in post.. I did not mean to insult anyone trying to help develop/code this game in it's current state nor have I ever. The developers of the current team that actually are doing things and working out the kinks of the system: I'm sure have plenty of great things to add to a resume after this. But the engine upgrade has always been a carrot on a stick for the community. It takes an entire team to make a game and it takes just as many to screw it up but no single person is solely responsible. (unless you count revoemag)

    You're right.  Crying wont get us Legit Staff, as we have Zero Staff. 

     The Engine was a lie and a money grab. I believe Matt was just a hired 'mouth piece' 

    Promised the world, added a few new guns, then alienated all n any anticheats. 

     I fully believe affiliates of LO are selling the hax to the mass hackers in dist. and letting them hack. I can't prove it, but I know when I see a Crook. n they Crooked.

    Too bad the United States Dept of Justice is under corrupt leadership or I'd tell em bout Little Orbits crooked deeds. 

     Its called International Wire Fraud 🤬

    man what a sell

    every time the tracking thread is quiet for more than two weeks the "jUsT LiKe g1" people show up

    yea let's enjoy this new company that interjects a new vocabulary word every 'engine update' post. shaders, collision, threads, hyperthreads, threshold reservoirs, bitmapping,, construct allocation, foilage AI... i could go on and on

     

    EDIT: added the word 'post'

     

    Merged.

     

    Let me tell you something, if they were close Marketing would have happened. If it's this late in the year while people are wasting money on holidays, the marketing would have grabbed on. The reality is we MIGHT see it nov 2022, or nov 2023, or nov 2024... for as long as you sheep want to play this game until it becomes "engine upgrade the board game".

    Change consumables to mods with a cooldown, like they should've been in the first place.

    $2000 per med spray/etc.... which some people use several times a match... spending tens of thousands of APB$ just to win matches is ridiculous! Things like that & remote detonator need to be a 1time use per mission at the very least. Imagine being new in this already huge skill ceiling game

    Looking at the roadmap 2k21 is getting funnier and funnier)

    It's not really a roadmap if every iota of intricacy relies on a phantom engine upgrade. Oh wait, new player name strategy... wait, no, it requires the engine upgrade too because no new players until they market their game which they are waiting for the engine upgrade to do
