Thanks alot for posting this info. Would be really great if the live version patch note states the final changes on each gun stat.

Would you rather have the illusion of responsiveness (and sometimes get teleported when syncing with the server) or experience the truth of lag affecting every of your inputs?

In light of the current rebalance: https://forums.gamersfirst.com/topic/3121-weapon-balance-otw-tweaks-ab-testing-values/ How do you think it should be done?

https://forums-old.gamersfirst.com/topic/396572-patch-1194-886-wednesday-9-am-utc/ May 2016 is 2 years+ ago, I'm not sure the OCA needed such a buff in the first place. Yes, the PMG was too good compared to the OCA at the time, but that TTK increase should have been halved. Without a doubt, the CAP40 needs some updating.

Gold10 is a goal in itself. This is a thing this game lacks, goals (medium & long-term). Too bad we don't have any archive of the old forum, I'd post a link to the Leaderboard / Leagues thread. I wouldn't mind removing visible threat. Might alleviate some of the Pickup group (PUG)/Backup toxicity APB is so prone to. EDIT: But before that, you want to sort out Threat Distribution in district by forcing auto-join and dynamic instance switching according to MMR. Dethreating / Noob abuse is a greater problem than having no high-level goals. It really hurts the player retention.

They don't need to switch them everytime they enter matchmaking. You force an auto-join to an instance (after setting your group in lobby / Social district) and sort them accordingly with the group's ELO. You re-evaluate the group's ELO after a set number of matches and transfer them to the appropriate instance of that map type if needed. Given the current active playerbase, cross-district matchmaking is a low priority.

It's a high priority but, why depend on Google for auth?

Fool's gold, nice reference.

That was golden. Worth remembering. I'm glad you never left. Reminds me of the good ol' days were forum goers requoted: 50+ times until we'd finally get one.

If wish I had a dollar everytime someone said: "this game is going to die". We'd have enough to kickstart a spiritual sequel by now.

I strongly advise everyone to play APB within the next 2 weeks. By that time, BattleEye will probably be obsolete. Are we keeping some part of FairFight? It's a good anticheat, provided the game isn't F2P and GMs know how to make full use of its logs and settings. Pretty confident LO could find settings to autoban blatant cheaters (any Shawcopters in 2018?). Manual, monthly banwaves were such a pain.
