    r255 npc only in gold with difficult but good rewarding dailys only there perhaps?

    Yeah, but it won't mean much when there will be like 20 people in Gold haha. If we had our old 2013-ish Pop and if old G1 had actually done the threat-segregation properly we could have Gold only districts. They didn't do it correctly though, hence the Gold Rush event, hence the low population. :^(

    As you can see NA is deader than the Horse that G1 beat into Oblivion, at all times throughout the day.  Ill be editing more later tonight at 7:03pm EDT just to prove my case more :^)

     

    Then explain my pics

     

    I dont work on Fridays because I bust my patootie Monday Through Thursday working graveyard shift for 48 hours 🙂   Earn about 600 a week, its pretty great~

     

    I'm not saying you're wrong, the game is dying on both servers. I'm just saying you arguing about the population for not being there while, again, THE MAJORITY of people don't work dumb shifts like that.  

     

    Wow, you work your patootie off for so much $!!! Wow, crazy!!! 600$!!! amazing! 

     

    I really don't care about how much you earn, or that you 'bust your patootie' for. All I'm saying is that you are in the minority, therefore you shouldn't expect that there will be a ton of people online. It'd be me playing some Korean game at my regular time and me complaining everyone is in school or work. hahaha you're delusional to think you're being reasonable.

    If you really want to make bank without having to worry about people taking your stash you could do the cheeky way.

     

    Get two PCs (or you and a friend)

    1 Enf - 1 Crim

    Raid with crim then give the stash when it's near 2.5k to the enfo so he can keep it "safe". 

    (pray you don't get DC'd)

    When you reach like 500k or more go N5 and kill the Enf near the drop to minimize the chance of getting witnessed.

    surely gold (rank) is just a number. Why not just put the number up? This would instantly reduce the amount of golds.

     

    That wouldn't help with much at the moment due to the lack of population. You can't just raise the requirements and then somehow that would fix match-making, there won't be enough opposition for the higher-tier players.

    This may also encourage people who have just turned silver to strive for gold again but the number of people who actually achieve it will be less so it will be a prestigious position to be in. 

    There will be two different reactions.

    1. Players will 'tryhard' to get back to Gold. We'll need an active ELO system that removes ELO from inactive players constantly or on a daily base. (which might tax the servers more)

    2. Players will then just play for fun and no one will get better as there will be no reason to face the top players. 

     

    If you want people to STRIVE for something you need to make Gold something you want to play in. It's like just playing competitive match-making on CS and then thinking "hmm maybe I could get better by playing FaceIt/ESEA". With the top tier of those platforms players compete for cash prizes, so people strive to be really good at the game. If there was a bonus for being Gold and playing in a Gold district eg. Joker Tickets (now that there are actual permanent weapons), bonus contact standing, bonus APB$, weapon trials selectors, skin selectors maybe players would want to be Gold.

     

    As I've said before about Bronze districts/Silvers(Piss Golds) in Bronze:

    If you do not understand the 'essence of the game' after 200hrs maybe a TPS/MMO game isn't for you. It's not even that detailed compared to many other MMOs on the market. Yeah, of course having a lower ping is an advantage, that's why games try have many server locations; to provide the best playing experience. If you willingly play a game with more than 250ms that's your own problem. 

    I understand you want to play with friends but your friends and yourself should not be playing against newbies.

     

    No one with more than 200hrs should be versing sub 25hrs players. You might not have ping or 'reflexes' as advantages, but with APB being a Third-Person-Shooter you have the element of surprise. You don't always need to have better aim, better locations/strategies can work out in your favour too. Not to mention many of the weapons that a higher ranked/more experienced player would have.

    Ok, so what's the excuse when the population is barely filling a lobby at 7 PM EST on a saturday night during the summer?

    game is dying ?_? there is no excuse for that lol just a really poor argument/reason to complain about low population during a time where the majority of people have IRL things to do lol

    Hello Guys,

     

    so as I wanted to make APB related symbols and there are banners, symbols, advertisments all over the place I was wondering if anyone knew where they are located so I can "copy" them, well kind of. I just want to make symbols as close as possible to the original and screenshotting ingame in a perfect angle, etc. is just ... stupid. Anyone knows more? As I am really bad in "data mine" into games.

     

    Thank you guys!

    I have a .zip file called 'APB Care Package 4.5'. I'll upload it now and then DM you. It's like 800mb though, if you're okay with that? Here's some examples of what is inside it:

    (1) take the mode down until it has seen major work or

    It kinda sucks that it takes so long to get the skin on Jericho. 😞 I'm still rank 3 on Citadel, I don't feel like doing it for all my characters. The game mode itself isn't actually that bad, well once all the major fixes were implemented. It's still not what APB is meant to be though. There's tons of other avenues to bring players to (and back) the game, which is new contacts, new map (maybe after engine upgraded) and then of course the engine upgrade itself.

    I voted no, as a daily FC player. It's a dumb fucking mechanic, it does not need to be anywhere else than the other dumb fucking RIOT mode. (both garbage additions to the game btw)

     

    RIOT is a mess. How can you push such a BROKEN game-mode to the live servers? You've been working on this for months and it is garbage. We're suppose to believe that 3.5 will come out soon, with the only proof that you can do anything being ... RIOT... lmao

    The timer on the Hazmat Suit is too long. Why does it spawn me FAR away from where the districts/"circle" is closing, auto uses a suit and then it takes me more than 45 seconds to run to the next possible clear block. I get that you don't want to have it being spammed, either rework the spawns or rework the Suit timer.

    I know Jericho's server very well . and I am confident to say that many players do not even understand the essence of the game . I know the exact outcome of the match at 95 % . having a small ping gives you an advantage in the number of kills , but can't be a good game experience . if you eat cheap food you will never learn the game.

     

     

    once the gold has completely left my arena, I will play in the arena according to the threat .

    There could be more than one.  (At 3000+ I know enough to realize I'm not getting any better.) I did hit silver threat on Han server before it moved out of Singapore, but with middle-aged reflexes and steadily higher ping with each server move it was never going to last. I play where my friends are playing, if they're on. Any Gold player will automatically hand me my patootie* regardless of district, that's a given. At my current 330ms latency I need to be lucky more than good to get a kill against anyone bronze or higher. It does make me feel bad to end up grouped with silver threat strangers, because there's no time for explaining "why are you bronze" every time a random mission starts. Much prefer running in a group of friends who are aware of my "handicap".

     

    But I'll always take the time to answer a new player's question, if I know the answer.

     

     

    * did not say patootie

    I understand you want to play with friends but your friends and yourself should not be playing against newbies. No one with more than 200hrs should be versing sub 25hrs players.

    i have to disagree. i've met people with 300+ hours in-game that definitely belong to the bronze district, they would even get their asses handed to them more often than not.

     

    There is only ONE player on NA that I believe is a true Bronze with higher than 200hrs, but I'm not going to name drop. Everyone else has no other excuse, unless you know, you're like him. Then maaaaaaaybe. Even then though, he willingly plays in Silver districts with his friends which is better sportsmanship than all the Silvers who play in Bronze.

    Patch day is on Wednesday, you've been here for long enough to know that.

    I don't see what more communication would be needed for this.

     

    Probably something along the lines of:

     

    "We've figured out what is wrong with EAC and have been able to fix the problem. The patch will go ahead on Wednesday. Downtime will be x hours."

     

    OR.

    "We've been unable to implement EAC into APB for this patch and will require x more days to sort it out."

     

    It's not that difficult. Not that I care too much, I just want to see the company deliver on their promises/roadmap.

    I agree, the Tutorial , more than likely, is starring you in the face.

    and when it is not, you saw how many forum posts required to get an answer.

    How many District Chat inquiries would you guess , before an answer was provided ?

     

    You see my point ?

     

    If I notice an actual question in /d, if I have it turned on, I will answer it. I see many players in the Silver district actually answering questions. So long as they are legitimate questions and not just obvious trolls.  Maybe it's just a problem in the Bronze district where Silvers are too ego-boosted to reply and help those who they are stomping? 

     

    That seems like a problem in the lesser district. 🙂
