Currently there exists only one secondary weapon in-game. But yeah the starting grind is horrible unless you have account bound 3 slot weapons. Imo they should have rank locked districts. Even if someone would create a new char to stomp noobs they would still be bound by rank restrictions on char and weapon mods...

At least we're getting actual patches for once

If you're hoping for something new then no everything is more or less the same. APB got a 64 bit upgrade that supposedly makes the game run slightly better and fixes rtx cards from freezing, that's about it. I might have gained up to +10 fps on average but for me it still drops to below 60 regulary, some people even reported a performance loss, IDK what's up with that. The 64 bit is supposed to be a foundation to build and improve upon so here's to hoping more good things will come. Also 50v50 districts are back like they were in 2010-2013 and population doubled because we got a first patch in the last 2-3 years. Might aswell wait for the next big patch, there's talks about EAC coming back, hopefully that will reduce the numbers of script kiddies running around. And there's talks about new contact being added so that will give max ranks something to do.

Just shows how many people are waiting for anything to happen. I can easily see EU reaching constant 1k /pop with more patches/fixes and new content...

Try contacting Matt via PM, maybe he'll answer, seeing as support was useless here. I've had some success in the past contacting GM's in private, then again seeing how popular he is I don't guarantee it. I saw you mention roles earlier, funnily enough some roles are bugged for me too, some being 945/50 etc. I know others have this issue too. Some tried contacting support but had no success even though support claimed they have "fixed" it, heard some even had other issues popping up after that. I haven't bothered contacting them as I don't want them messing something up and also why even bother at this point. Also my friend contacted support over two weeks ago regarding missing items, support managed to reply once asking for more details and it has been radio silence since...

Fixed that for you

Idk, maybe cheaters bring just enough profit for LO to justify keeping them arround or maybe LO doesnt want to lose the few active players left there are. Like this game has no new players left and the only ones that still play are either used to suffering and probably enjoy it too or are cheating themselves. APB is the only game I know where you get unbanned multiple times for cheating and get free premium on top of that too.

Nothing new

So much butthurt in just one thread. It's like the entire butthurt of the forum flocked here. Still amazes me how someone can go from removing symbols and/or clothing to breaking character by locking equipment slots. Like why even go there? What did he have equiped there for support to feel the need they need to mess with that? Swastika shaped FIeld Supplier? Nazi Book Burning Torch?

More like late 2012

2011-2012 G1 times

Oh wtf, was already surprised when beta came out some days ago but now it's live? Damn, LO dropping some bombs

I remember Matt mentioning they wanted to release the open beta to public on February. I was sceptical about such an early date but I am pleasantly surprised when LO actually delivered, kudos for that. Anything that helps to improve the performance of this God awful lag fest of a game is welcome. Hopefully the next step will be an UI upgrade as the current one is known to cause performance issues... Every little bit contributes to a better user experience. I hope for the sake of APB and all that hold it dear, the journey of upgrading to 64 bit will be smooth and no unforeseen consequences or perhaps some other darker matters will pose an obstacle for dev team. Peace.

It doesn't matter what GPU you use on this game. If you want a setup for apb only do like others do, get a good CPU, no less that 8 gb ram, preferably more and have GTX 10** series at most to avoid any bugs/crashes. But to build a PC for apb specifically is pretty cringe now with ~300 /pop left. Made sense maybe in 2018. I have GTX 960 pc and GTX 1050 Ti laptop I never crash, unless internet drops connection. When back in the day I upgraded my PC from Radeon HD 6870 to GTX 960 there was 0 increase in fps as CPU stayed the same. Two of my friends have Rtx 20** series, they both crash/freeze from time to time, sometimes a few times per few hrs session. Another friend has similar level AMD card, forgot model but he also freezes and crashes occasionally. I expect newer AMD cards will have issues too. Looking back and development history of this game I don't expect 64 bit upgrade coming out. I guess you could have a dope setup w/ high level AMD/Nvidia card and have a older GTX 10** series card on the side for when you want to play apb, they are cheap now. Quick swap and driver reinstall. Unless you are one of those who never get tired of apb but not many of them left.

Oh boy can't wait for another post with a list of things that will never happen

Thanks will try it out

I thought it was impossible untill one day me and 2 friends were matched against a very skilled gold group. Minutes into the match one guy disconnects, they don't call for backup, some minutes later they get the same guy as backup. I tried everything I could think of but I can't find a way to rejoin after losing connection. Always get some random guy as backup if I try...

Europe sadly. He tends to play in the emptier of the two financial districts we have in EU. I play there too as it's easier to find a spot (no que system still lol) and 30v30 my fps is more playable than full 40v40. But it does not matter, sometimes he finds me in social too. If anybody is interested I can PM more on this guy, maybe you know him, can't share info here due to rules...

Open offer for threesome if you wanna join That's what I've been doing for the last couple of months????? When he started harassing my 2nd char with no connection to the fist one simply because he did not like my addidas tracksuit or whatever, didn't even know it was him as that was another one of his new chars. Only then I started wondering if anybody else knows this schizo, perhaps he's some local celebrity among what's left of APB's population. He gets most pissed off when you /ignore him Merged. Tell me about it. Never had this happen before. Usually when someone's toxic you exchange a couple of messages, /ignore, and that's the end of that. Kill, teabag each other a couple of times in the future at most but nothing close to this lol. The guy went through 6 new chars just to rant one day untill I switched to no /w chat tab. Crazy I know bro I'm like God with it, especially against silvers and/or someone always using one weapon no matter the range or combat type. Trust me bro 100% I know Whisper is not meta nor a high skill weapon but I don't care. I play with weapons I like. Maining Oscar/N-KEK w/ nothing else but .45 ap is just cringe.

So there's this guy that's had a hard on for me for some months now. He is enforcer, usually silver, very rarely gold, likes to play Stabba CCG. If teammates die a few times he just goes afk while complaining 1vs3 or whatever. He is super toxic, everytime I ignore him he creates a new char and keeps on ranting more in /w intill I ignore it untill I get fed up and whitch to no /w chat tab (can't believe we dont have basic things like option to not accept PMs from non friends). Every time I see him he is playing a different char, maybe switches every week IDK. I'm guessing his main is banned not sure, I have reported him to support with images and video clip one day when he was super toxic in chat and also griefed my team mission. He's been harassing my two chars probably thinking it's two different people. It's funny because all of it started because I've outgunned his CCG in close combat with my Whisper and he got super mad after losing three missions in a row this way, while going afk and refusing to switch weapons lol. And he started harassing my 2nd char because he did not like my looks lol. Everytime he sees me he starts ranting in /w. Everytime he gets me as opp he rage quits. lol. Surely I can't be the only person he likes so much?

One of the things I always wanted back. Shooting unsilenced weapons felt like something was missing. I wouldn't get my hopes up as I'm certain LO won't be able to finish 64 bit upgrade due to some "unforeseen consequences" and unwilingless on their end. There was a point when I was among the naive and believed that engine upgrade would eventually come. That hope started fading in 2015 and was completely lost later on. LO sparked some hope in 2018 or whenever they took over but little hope there was left was lost in 2020 after no progress to show. It's funny because this feels just like what G1 did. First 2 years they tried to work on the game and abandoned it in 2013. LO showed some effort for the first two years and later dropped it in favor of NFT or whatever else.

Lol thanks. I guess I need to read more carefully Ghost Kitty would be a cool title tho

Hey, I really like this weapon skin and I noticed that it's glitched out on one of my favorite weapons - Oca Whisper. Here are comparison images how it looks on Oca SD and on Whisper:

Anybody knows how to get the new halloween titles like Ghost Kitty etc... I have 2 chars who maxed out the holiday contacts but none of them have these titles...

Something about lighning seems off, idk looks brighter or something. Also tried to do daily from event contract that needs 5 kills with snubnose and kill counter doesn't work, was a witness mission if it matters...
