If only the devs would release an "underwear" item that basically covered your whole body like a spandex suit... People could create so many outfit options with such a basic item.

Just devalue his options by posting copies for less. I ran into this issue and just spamed the market with so many copies he probably never made a profit.

silvers and high silvers will raise and lower threat naturally just playing the game. The population is so small that there is no real balance. You either destroy your enemy or your enemy destroys you.

oh, which are these because all my macro's work for Razer and Logitech. My favorite one is /abandonmission and J to check my contact contracts.

once you learn to tap fire over your targets you'll suddenly get /whispers of how you are using trigger bots and cheating. Relying on a simple rapid fire macro, have fun because your skill level will hit a very low ceiling. when was the last time you tried to make a perfectly timed rapid fire macro in this game? The servers are so laggy there is no such thing. You'll skip shots; the delay on those skipped shots will be so long you'll be dead before your gun shoots again. Maybe if the servers ran perfectly and you had a low latency, but that has never been the APB servers.

Do you mean like overlay crosshairs that do not interact with the game or trigger bots that work with the in game crosshairs and auto shoot when they turn red? And macros, rapid fire macros that have no aim or triggering capabilities or triggerbots which only fire when you are passing over a target? Because overlays you can't stop, monitors come standard with this feature. People with stickers or dry erase markers can do this manually. Rapid fire macros that have no aim or triggering functions like triggerbots... let people use them. They are actually handicapping themselves as bloom will maximize almost instantly with very little control. Unless you are a bronze player, a rapid fire macro with no aiming or triggering capabilities won't help much and at best only assist you into the high bronze to low silver skill level. People who learn to tap fire only when over their targets will have a much higher skill level than those relying on rapid fire macro's and spraying with max bloom until the magazine runs out. If you are talking about triggerbots, those are not tolerated.

I always thought the bronze players needed more rounds against quad gold premade teams that use rocket launchers, opgls and ntecs as well. /s I agree, it doesn't matter why some of us vets play; one reason this game can't retain players is it tosses new players against vets who know every quirk of the game. It's not fun and they have no safe space to fight players their skill level and learn the game. I'm a vet and even I get exhausted playing premade gold's when the rest of my team is bronze and silver.

Wait, so a player doesn't want to play a round, quits, and you think that you being sad is reason to be toxic?

lol really? That's kind of a rude intro to the game. Welcome to APB Reloaded, here you go, face some rank 255s with rocket launchers. Enjoy!

I support that idea but keep the bronze and trainees in the trainee districts by default. This should keep them away from higher skilled players and let them enjoy the game and build up their skill level.

Long long time ago you couldn't witness in the trainee districts. Guess that's changed

If you can get into the trainee district, I think you can ram raid there without fear of being witnessed (I think it is turned off). Create a new account, ram raid as a trainee at N5. You'll make a lot more money than trying to ram raid in the gold district since you won't be disturbed, then you can just trade the money directly to your main character (even my years old laptop can run APB long enough to do a trade in social).

NA has maybe 100 people total during peak. That is divided into 3 districts and 2 factions. Today during peak (around 5 PM EST) I was looking at around 20 players for each faction in the silver and bronze districts, zero in the gold. Social may have had 30 max players.

There should be two types of districts. Trainee (green district) where only trainees and bronze are assigned and blocked from Silvers and Golds. Then open districts where silvers and golds are assigned but bronze may access if they manually choose. At least with the NA we don't have the population to split between 3 district threat segregations and too many silvers just camp in the bronze district so they can destroy trainee and bronze players.

that's something new to me, can you do this with vehicles/clothing?

for me I have 5 characters. I purchased all my weapons account wide. I would have purchased all my clothes and vehicles account wide if there was an option but instead I piece it on my non 2 mains. If you only care about playing one faction or only having your favorite weapons on one character it may not hold enough value for you to buy account wide or off Armas.

The only unfair aspect of the game I see are the mods. The max rank of any mod should be rank 80. The rank 195 mods are game changers and it is not fair that newer players can't really access them easily. You can rent them but unless you are willing to spend a lot of real money on Joker Tickets, most new players aren't going to be able to farm enough tickets from contacts each week to keep more than a couple active.

What happened with Frost?

true, I think I saw a person use the crown maybe once. Even the people that own it don't really want to wear it.

Death/Taxes... I can't figure out how to use these well over nearly any other weapon in the game.

The thing is you can't change every little aspect of this game because of the minuscule population it has. So you take away the EOL and Volcano weapons, even the OSMAW. How are you going to refund everyone that owns those items? People have spent hundreds of dollars getting the EOL and Volcano, now you think they should just delete those weapons instead of... I don't know, allowing people to learn how to counter those weapons with minimal skill? I am not great at shooters but even I can avoid explosive weapons the majority of the time. I rarely die from them more than once and only once because someone swaps to explosives without me noticing. If I can learn how to avoid explosive weapons, nearly anyone can.

Here is a better ask. Please drop all rank 195 mods to rank 85. It is not fair for the high levels to have access to Flak while new players who do not have access to counter for explosive weapons. Explosive weapons are fine. They are easy to avoid if you learn how to avoid their strengths. Stay out of tight hallways, stop traveling grouped up in vehicles, stop using vehicles as cover, and learn how the weapons work so you can avoid their max range. Drop the rank 195 mods to rank 85 and you will immediately see how weak explosive are, that is if you chose to use Flak.

it's a horrible build. Mainly because the SNRs accuracy. The SNRs short range is fine, even for a pistol, but added on only 6 shots and lack of accuracy, it's a useless weapon.

plus it is a 100% CQC build that allows a range of maybe 10-15 meters max.

Imagine how good you could be using a wall hack. Even the worst player in the world shouldn't need aim assist or a triggerbot if you have the advantage of always knowing your enemies location and health.
