    I do agree with the opening post. Despite having all of the event specific achievements, I think these things are annoying, because they will eventually be impossible to get.

    Also in case of the existing event specific achievements things were handled poorly, as those achievements were added to steam about two years after the events took place.

    How can you be r255 and silver???? 

     

     

    Like seriously do you guys play on trackpad or something? I still cant possibly imagine being silver at r255...

     

     

    You know the guns, you know the map, you know possible spawn location, you know the most taken routes... 

     

    And you got like 100s of hours of experience... 

     

    HOW THE HELL CAN YOU BE SILVER? 

     

     

     

    I know the theory yes, but I think my situational awareness isn't as good as it used to be and my aiming never was the best. That's why I normally end up loosing against the "pro" players that rarely miss their shots. Just because all of this seems natural and easy to you, doesn't mean it'slike that for everyone.

    You know that point where apb got really bad, lowest pop, cheaters etc... i had a friend that we would enjoy facing cheaters and try to defeat them. We would lose most of the games, others would win... it was our enjoyment to mock cheaters for losing lol.

     

    So if we could enjoy apb in that state even losing, or hving really challenging games... why cant they do the same? It seems that they only find enjoyment into stomping and thats why they complain when they get a challnging adversary... because there are some brave silvers playing silver districts and i witnessed it.

     

    And yes apb can be really hardcore at times... for some players may be aswell.

    Thats why i proposed something like this:

    and no more problems... action would be used to gain colour threat, they could add more colours 😜

     

     

    I don't mind a challenge, in fact I do welcome missions that can have an outcome that is close to call. But it's not fun if you know you will loose as soon as the mission starts, because your opposition is 10 times better than you.

     

    I don't know how the situation in bronze districts really because I never go there, as I just play with friends and they mostly happen to be golds, but seeing the constant complains about people seemingly belonging in neither district shows that there are issues that need to be looked at.

    I already explained that gold is much easier to get now. Probably those golds you see are top silvers and you would face them anyways in a proper threat system and matchmaking.

    Gold been killed, they removed the incentive to players to keep playing and feel rewarded for their skills, effort and time spent. Cheaters helped to it. When i was actively playing the group leader would allways suggest to move to another server or even to silver (even with the punishment for not playing your own server).

     

    Now explain me how is going to bronze server with the excuse "gold come to silver" any better?

     

    I never said it's any better, but it's not much worse either, it's basically the same thing.

    But if you dont care good enough, why complain then? Everyone knows by now this is not a casual game... why do you force yourself to play a hardcore game when you have not the necessary and go and abuse lower skilled players? Yet later complain that someone else does the same to you?

    With what face could anyone do that?

     

     

    I wouldn't call APB neither casual not hardcore. It surely has a more competitive attitude than a casual game, but also a lot of social aspects. There are many players who are just playing to have a good time. I'm not really into competitive gameplay, but I enjoy just hanging around, meeting new people and playing with friends.

    You are forgeting the other option, depending more on your team.

    I know you are creating excuses, there is no way you suck 100% of the time trully knowing the game and being rank 255. There is NO way, ive been there when being silver was the proper silver and i had to face golds.

    I'm creating excuses for what? If being a silver in a silver district requires excuses, then yes ... I do create excuses, I merely wanted to describe to you how many people feel and that saying "learn to play" doesn't solve all problems. Gold players should not forget they are playing in the district s that are meant to be reserved for the silver population. Their behavior there sadly is like them being invited to someone's house and than laying their feet on the owners couch while still wearing their dirty shoes. I don't mind golds joining the silver districts, but they should respect the people the districts are meant for.

     

     

    On this note, I hope Little Orbit will be able to alter the system vin a way that these discussions will become a thing of the past soon

    I am not sure why you are simphatizing with these kind of players. They are in bronze and they "destroy" enemies "9 out of 10" games, they are in silver and they cry... they dont seem to care that they are punishing low players the same way they get rekt in silver because they refuse to learn to play and they dont care at all but for their feelings. Isnt it hypocritical?

     

    They are the real problem, not the rest of players.

    I'm a 255 silver most of the time, so when playing in silver district I loose most of my missions, what is your advice for me? I personally don't feel I have stagnated on the same level for a long while, so don't come at me with learn to play, I know the theory, I just suck at executing it. So just quitting the game it is then, because there is no space left for me? In the current world the silver districts are populated from the best players down to those that are a few weeks into the game, no wonder there's people who constantly loose and then go to a bronze district to feel some sort of accomplishment. Allowing golds into silver districts was the fix they introduced to locking the golds into gold districts, unfortunately this has't solved the problem it just moved it one tear lower.

    Honest question here: what would you do if threat didnt exist and you would be set against very skilled players all the time? What would be your excuse for not learning to play?

    Matches would probably be a lot more random, so the odds of winning wouldn't be the same as they are now, because the opposition wouldn't just be veterans with thousands of hours.

    When I was playing Fight Club on Asylum today I decided to play Less than Lethal Weapons. When arresting people, the message indicating the 200 points gained for an arrest appears twice on the screen. The chat message for rewards the message in the kill feed also appear twice. The Score and money on the scoreboard also increased by the amount of two arrests. The actual number of arrests on the scoreboard and the Cop role don't seem to be affected by this.

     

    Steps to reproduce:

     

    1. Join Asylum District (probably will work in any other district, too)

    2. Select a Less than Lethal Weapon

    3. Stun an Enemy and receive Stun reward once

    4. Arrest the Enemy

    5. Receive Reward for the Arrest twice.

     

    What happens after these steps is that the rewards for the arrests are given twice and all messages related to this show up twice.

     

    The expected result should be that all messages should only appear once, and the rewards should also only be credited once.
