By 'types of people" do you mean the people who kept the game alive, who kept playing while you bailed on us?

I promise, I'll stop. --------------------------------------- I don't know the answer to these questions. SPCT was more Matt's thing, and the GM program I think was Lixil. I guess that could be a reason too? Or what Kevkof said, maybe GMs need anonymity to work. And maybe SPCT needs to be publicly accountable. I've no idea.

Just buy the Juggenaut pack then. Best thing we can do, is give feedback. I do think most players agree some of these weapons need to be looked at.

Bold of you to assume SPCT agree on anything. #BringBackJumpscouting We just test and maybe make bad jokes with like 2 LO staff. It's not what you think it is, not at all.

Hmmm... maybe I should have worded this differently. In no way is it impossible to kill with any weapon in the game, and of course better players beat worse players. But aside from cold hard statistical imbalance, perception is ultimately what matters. If it looks imbalanced, if it feels imbalanced that's what matters. Does anyone ever wonder why new players who quit are often those who call the game p2w? Imagine its day 1 for you on APB. You have one primary and one secondary, one type of grenade, and one vehicle. You are thrown into matches against players who have different and thus more situation specific weapons, as well as better version of not just the gun you have, but better guns within that class. They have character mods and consumables you do not, they have far superior vehicles in literally every aspect. You ask players, "what gun/car/mod is that? How do I get it?" There are two answers to this question: -tedious progression -real $ purchases So in this instance, it matters less the veracity of the sentiment, but rather the perception that matters. -On a side note, being SPCT gives me no more input or control over what changes are made to this game than you or anyone else that gives input. I can promise you this. So when I'm posting, it has zero to do with LO. It's just another player giving their opinion.- -all imbalance complaints come from statistical values and the scenario of combat between two players of equal skill-

Please don't misunderstand. When I hit r255 on a character, I don't ever really play it again, I just start a new one. Obviously all of us here love the game, I know I do. I think I was trying to make a broader point about why I think the game hasn't had wider appeal.

No no no, I didnt mean they'd perma ban you. In fact its super hard to get a perma ban on the forums. And I do get what you mean, a message would be nice but often the reason something gets deleted is obvious once the rules are read. Btw Im not defending the rules either... but we don't really have a say in what those are, so I've just learned to go with it.

For me its either Radar or Ammo in my trunk.

Hi can I request a round played with fragile, epi, blowtorch, and firework launcher only? Thanks. Its cuz Exo is so sexy no one would watch the gameplay if they could see his face.

If they just delete it its because they are being nice and not putting a mark on your record. Ive had many posts removed, many warnings, temp bans, etc Im grateful when they just remove a post. I gotta be close to being perma banned.

It’s semi auto, so there is no bursting. that being said, min ttk only happens in closer ranges, as bloom kind of explodes after the second shot. So you go pew pew pause pew pew

Shame we can’t simply get someone to enforce the current rules.

Laughs in 170ms minimum.

That would suck for so many players though.

Nitro 3, High Burn Fuel, Steel Plating 3, Mobile Radar Tower Pioneer gang.

Yeah I was gonna say, "when tf did that get changed???" ... it didnt

Honestly if you didn't pick the ALIG as your perm tutorial weapon, you should delete your character and start again.

Unfortunately, my point was that its the foundation itself that is faulty. APB for some reason decided to combine progression unlocked combat improvement, the kind of thing you normally see in PvE games, and a competitive shooter. It still boggles the mind that anyone thought that was a good idea.

Not sure. But Selali will see this thread, so maybe this will get some traction.

what exactly would that do? player skills would be the same... your opp would be the same... they'd just maybe have a different color symbol by their name that would be the only difference

to be fair, the game would have to be redesigned from the ground up 3.5 ain't gonna do shit tbh... Its APB itself that need to change, and fundamentally Imagine playing Overwatch, but the Soldier 76 on the other team has played longer, so his gun kills faster than yours. thats apb.. its unbalanced at its core it really only becomes "fair" at r255 and having either spent cash on ARMAS or accumulated an absurd amount of JT. Otherwise you will have matches where your opp has more weapon choices, better mods, better vehicles etc... and even then its only fair for you, but not your opp unless they also are r255 and all the rest unbalanced at its core, and not being addressed in any way big RIP

There ya go.

If this happens again, go HAM and take some screenshots, or if you can video, and send it to support. Cuz that shit is not ok.
