They are account bound, even if you are given the code when attempting to redeem an error message will tell you the codes belong to another account. People censor the codes as a good practice or simple are not aware that they cannot be redeemed on another account. Like others have mentioned, codes don't expire once they reach the deadline the expiration date is automatically extended. I have got tones of premium codes dating back from 2014.

I disagree, PMG is a very good CQC weapon but it is definitely NOT OP.

Hey there @Thial, There is nothing wrong about voicing your concerns and thoughts, unfortunately this has been posted, reposted, re-reposted, and reposted x1000000. LO is really trying in fact, they have demonstrated commitment to improve the game, the customer supports transparency, and communication. Like Matt said the purpose of Riot was to have a deeper and better understanding on how the game works and its code, the EU is not an easy task and sorry to dissapoint but I don't see it happening anytime soon, not because LO don't care but because it is a huge and difficult task. I hope I am wrong about this but this is my gut feeling.

@MattScott, Thank you very much for the honestly and hard work. No one though APB was going to be an easy task and for tho I really want to thank you and the team for not giving up and keep trying hard to improve the game. Keep up the hard work and more importantly don't give up.

Thanks for your newspaper article, very informative.

They are shutting down servers in few minutes. EDIT: Servers down. EDIT 2: they are pushing a 30mb update.

No, network outage. EDIT: just managed to log into CITADEL.

Thank you for the update.

LO is clearly tying at their best to improve the game and working hard to try to add new content, they really don't deserve this kind of feedback. Sorry to disagree but they have been very transparent about their plans and when something dosen't go as planned they are the first to apologise and immediately try their best to solve the problems, learn from any mistake and improve.

Yeah, can't log into CITADEL.

I think it could be cool to be able to pick others weapons, like any other game where you can do the same. CS:GO, PUBG, APEX, COD, FORTNITE, BATTLEFIELD, and the list goes on and on. Look at it this way you are about to run out of ammo and luckily there are some weapon on the ground you can pick and continue to fight. I understand some would be mad coz they have exclusive weapons they don't want others to have, but it could also be reworked so: 1) Weapons picked can't get reloaded, only what ever ammo left in the mag. 2) They will get automatically unequipped if no ammo is left in the mag, or after few minutes. NOTE: this is a cool feature but would need some sort of timer (weapons will disappear after a set timer) otherwise we will end in having hundreds of weapons laying on the floor in fightclub map. NOTE 2: disregard the above if you disagree and just fix it.

Hey @Donjae, I get you are frustrated but I have to disagree with with your argument, LO had a rough start as they had to learn the game from scratch which is something that takes time. They have also done a great work at being transparent, working hard to improve the game and trying hard to keep players motivated. They have also improved the customer support and overall customer service and in mi opinion they have done surprisingly well even though 1) They don't have a huge work force and 2) had to work hard to learn & understand the game.

It could be changed to APB: UPGRADED! On a serious note, like many others have suggested in this thread, I would rather having it changed to it's original name All Points Bulletin just for the sake of keeping it simple and true to its origin.

Hey welcome to the forums! Probably join in some player events or staff organised events, will definitely hand around and try have some fun, if you want we could team up and play together.

Yeah, your CPU is the issue there. Like I said APB heavily deppends on CPU due to being poorly optimised and if you wish to have a decent performance then you MUST get a better CPU. This is all based on personal testing I have carried out over the years on different PC builds. I have rule out ram, GPU, SSD or HDD, cooling temp, background programs, antivirus out of the cause of poor performance, and so did many members that did notice a massive improvement in the performance after upgrading CPU.

The problem is your CPU, APB is poorly optimised and the performance heavily deppends on your CPU rather than GPU. You have got two options, upgrade your CPU or wait till the game gets the Engine Upgrade. I used to run the game on a old AMD Phenom ii x4 black edition at 3.5GHz and barely reached 40 to 60fps, and also had issues with lag. It all changed when I upgraded my PC to a INTEL Skylake Core i7 6700K CPU 4.5GHz in 2016, all issues gone and having 90 to 100 fps.

The problem with macros is that most gaming gear comes with macroing tools. EAC is used in many games which allow the use of macros, however, I believe they can do tweaks on the EAC to monitor for macro software/tools (please do not quote me on that) if they plan to enforce rules against the use of macros. From experience macro is completely useless in FPS or TPS games including APB, if anyone finds it difficult to tap fire by default (right mouse click) then you can bind the fire function to the mouse scroll wheel and see if you like it. Macro is pointless and therefore from my point of view do not offer any unfair advantage.

From experience during gamersfirst age crosshair overlays were NOT considered a banable offense, however, modifying the game files (custom shaders) was indeed against the TOS and could lead to diciplinary actions. I would suggest to contact the customer support and ask, that way you will get an official response.

APB Reloaded performance is based on CPU and not on the GPU, the client is also poorly optimised. What CPU do you have? I personally can play APB Reloaded on my 1080 SC at constant 90+ fps only because I have a quite decent CPU, I7 Skylake 4.5Ghz. I used to play on a GTX 750 TI SC and on a Phenom X4 II 3.5 Ghz Black Edition, and it wasn't enough to even play, with constant 30 to 60 fps, it was a nightmare and it was only till I upgraded my PC that I managed to enjoy the game.

I recall contacting G1's customer support years ago to get information/clarification about this and their reply was: "binding a key to either your keyboard or mouse to perform an in-game action like shooting is perfectly allowed". If this statement changes under LO's management, then I am pretty sure they will make an announcement beforehand.

Hey @LAPDAlonso, You should stick around until you see the changes LO will be making to the game, and then, only then you might be able to decide whether you like the way things are being handled or not.

Hello @Raynerrrr The only reliable pack I could find is the one listed in Amazon and sold by Reloaded Productions. Note: only available for customers residing in the US. EDIT: I have removed the link due to not being sure if the pack being sold works. EDIT 2: have a lot at this link https://store.steampowered.com/app/113405/APB_Reloaded_Urban_Survival_Pack/

I agree actual cheaters should be strongly punished, however, it is extremely difficult for Lo to determine which accounts were involved in activities contrary to the ToS and which accounts were wrongfully banned. @SelttikS I am understand how frustrating it can be, but all account actions were issued by G1 and has got nothing to do with LO, also, LO can't determine which bans were warranted because they don't have reliable data and the way LO investigate reports and handles account action is way different due to their policies and ToS.

They can be fun to use sometimes but in the reality, they are inferior against stock APB weapons (N-tec 5, STAR 556, OCA-EW 626), however, If you are a weapon collector then you should add them to your collection.
