    better than cosplaying a ww2 era panzer crew member hope you aren't wearing that in game

    This uniform has no outlawed symbols as the units wearing it were not part of a political party thus such uniform is not illegal.

    Here's my fps averages in FRAPS. Tested driving around the Double B area on a 60+ player financial. It does stutter, but not any worse than it did back in 2012.

     

    Min: 86, Max: 146, Average: 128

     

    CPU: Xeon W3680 - 4.25Ghz

    RAM: 12GB DDR3 2133Mhz 9-10-10-24 1T

    GPU: GTX 1080

    Display: 1440p 144hz

     

    Biggest improvement to FPS was disabling HPET in the BIOS and in Windows. With HPET enabled it causes it to drop below 30fps while turning the camera. HPET is enabled by default on some motherboards. Some don't even let you turn it off.

    I'm convinced that hpet fix is placebo just like all other things like removing search indexing etc. I tested them and did not see any difference neither on my old PC nor on current laptop...

    Not really. Client performance was roughly the same without modified configs. Servers were crashing (instability, ddos). Physics would break server sided, causing things such as the ambulance and jeep to do a front flip while driving in reverse. The only obvious difference is the network latency, but that's not the fault of the current game, it's the improperly configured anti-ddos protection.

     

    There were less assets (cars, clothing, symbols, etc), so you could get away with a lower end PC. On a higher end PC, ( i7 990X, DDR3 2133Mhz, GTX 780), not much has changed. The GTX 780 stutters when someone hits you with a shotgun. It wasn't until the GTX 900 series that GPUs were able to handle the framerate eating particle effects. Even then enough cars blowing up will drop you into the single digits.

    Client performance was anything but same. Game ran on my old PC at 99.9-100 fps in 2011-mid 2012.

     

    And Phenom II X4 955 3.2 Ghz

    4 GB DDR3 1600 MHz Ram

    Radeon HD6870.

     

    Over the years I've upgraded to 8 GB ram and Nvidia GTX960. Upgrading the GPU did zero to framerate only ram helped as it became unplayable with 4 GB.

     

    I tried playing on that PC about two months ago and my fps was 70-50 on average with horrible drops to 35-40 in gunfights. Unplayable. Even in empty districts with no players it does not hold a steady 100 fps that it used to hold back in 2011 in full districts and jumps between 80-90 I believe.

     

    Many people quit to to their PCs suddenly being unable to run the game at an enjoyable framerate, quite a few of my friends too for the same reason. Even checked a few vids from old apb clan PSYCH and they left a comment that they would start filming again once devs would fix performance so it would run like in the old days. That comment was from 2013 😂

     

    My friend got a beast PC with latest ryzens n stuff and even on his PC the game drops from 144 to 80 quite often.

     

    I'm now playing with a laptop from maybe 2018 with i7-7700 HQ 1050 Ti and 16 gb and SSD and the game does not understand if it wants to run at 90 or 42 fps. Averaging at 70 with drops to 50-something when there are many players around. Can't compete with 144 fps tryhards running PS1 graphic configs coupled with 4:3 resolution on a 16:9 monitor that makes the game look like quake 2 lol

     

    Servers where always crap tho. Still remember the "overkill servers" meme

    It's a useless gun the colby pistol, it shoots so slowly you only get to shoot anyone once with it unless they don't feel like shooting you back, you might get to shoot them twice but that's only if they have a shit gun they don't know how to use and it takes more than 2 to kill, I don't know how many more, never fired more than 2 shots into anyone with it, most guns can kill you in the space between your shots because it's almost a whole second

    My man confusing Colby RSA with Colby .45 ap again 😂

     

    Honestly though 99% of golds are now using it indicating that something is wrong. Either the gun is too good or other guns are simply not good enough. Usually it's nr. 1.

     

    Remember when all golds used to main Nano, Trouble Maker, Yukon at different times in APB's history? All overly popular guns get fixed eventually. Look at what happened to N-Kek because it was "being used more often than we would like it to be" or something along the lines.

    I tried to play as a cop a long time ago but it was hard work because of all the car surfing, rapid firing, rocket launching reprobates. They would drive by and blow you up as soon as you spawned or got in a car and drove anywhere. I gave up after a few missions in a row of 0 points.

    I only have a choice of two Colby, the RSA and a shorter one, 1.7sec and 1.5 sec so where do you get the ap?

    Also why can't my friend sell or send me guns, when I look in the auction there's guns for sale there.

    Colby .45 ap is a paid only weapon unless you grind joke tickets to get one (real life M1911) It's the one that 99% of gold's tryhard with so I imagine it will get some sort of fix in the future as with all overly popular guns. You can get a free trial of it from armas and joker shop to try out yourself.

     

    Regarding cops vs crim opposition in my experience it's opposite - more new players start out as crim because "lul GTA crimezzz thug life" so as a cop I would more often get low rank silvers as opponents.

     

    Regarding trading only "legendary" lootbox guns are tradeable so your friend needs to have some of those if he wants to sell/lend you them.

    I thought you meant a different gun, bigger one, not secondary. I'm unfamiliar with the names of all the guns. I don't think I've ever been stunned with a handgun. I tried a colby, surely it means it takes  0.8 seconds between shots, not to kill because it's fucking useless, it takes 3 shots to kill and there's no way it fires 3 shots in 0.8 seconds, it shoots so slow you die between shots.

    My man confused Colby .45 ap for Colby RSA. Also your legendary WiFi connection does not help 😂

     

    Merged.

    Exactly. Since LTL doesn't come with open-slot weapons, it only becomes better when the grind is already over and even then it is still leagues behind actual weapons.

     

    They seem to want to make APB team red vs team blue rather than Criminals vs Cops, kills some decent potential tbh.

     

    Sadly, it is actually worse. PIG would stun in 1 second if it had more shots before reloading but it only comes with 1.

     

    Since PIG requires 1.25 seconds to reload, that's its actual time to stun if used without help from any other source. PIG on its own is a death-sentence in a 1v1 fight.

    I don't think anybody uses pig on its own usually it's pig+perc

     

    Merged.

    Yes, every patch since 2011 decreasing performance to the point where PCs that used to run the game fine can no longer run it and no fixes is entirely player's fault. Unbanning all hackers banned by punkbuster and giving them free premium is player's fault. Unbanning all hackers banned by fairfight is all player's fault. Incompetent matchmaking thinking 1 gold and 3 silvers vs 4 golds is fair also player's fault. No new content since like 2015 is player's fault. Engine upgrade not coming since Q1 2014 is entirely player's fault.

     

    Thousands of people lurking online checking for any news regarding this game waiting to return when some of the issues above have been resolved.

     

    Low quality bait mate try again.

    I don't see why anyone continues to try playing this game. Its all empty promises. They will never update the engine because this game was doomed to fail from the start.

    Did not play the game for many years but it never left my mind. There is nothing like it. Sure cars drive better in GTA 5 but gunplay is joke there pretty much hold left mouse with any gun at head area and hope for a headshot.

     

    Upon looking at population numbers for the last few months I've decided to now it's time to play the game while I can and there are still a few populated districts (eu). Regardless of the game's state if I don't play now I might not get a chance to do so in the future and I know I would regret it.
