    Which is just going to be full of spam, and the person you just had a district chat with will never know you left.

    I just don't like the idea of it, it's hard to actually add such a thing to the game. Main problem being things like traffic that'll just change out of nowhere, and you spawning randomly into peoples cars, or bring your car with you that's left in some alleyway that suddenly blocks the line of sights during a shootout, or spawns inside of you which causes you to get stuck or glitch out.. all that.
    Do you really think they'll just spawn your car inside someone elses? They're not idiots. I imagine you'll have some sort of noclip on for a few seconds as you phase in, to give you a chance to keep on driving seamlessly and get to a point where you won't glitch through anything.

    Hi everyone,

     

    I can confirm that we are going to be turning the new weapon balance on in a specific zone for live servers so that players can test.

    Waiting to see when that will be after we look at the QA results from this week's testing.

     

    Thanks,
    Matt

    For the love of all that's holy, please don't listen to feedback from the whining vocal minority on the forums. Plenty of times perfectly viable weapons were nerfed to the ground because bad players can't comprehend that some weapons shouldn't be hold lmb to win.

     

    APB has a number of top tier players, who have never been banned, and know absolutely everything about how this game is played. Please ask them what they think instead.

    I've had this issue for a while, but here goes.

     

    When downloading patches, the download rate is incredibly slow.

    Last patch from G1 (before LO took over), I was downloading at less than 1kb/s.

     

    This latest patch, it seems to be capped at 140kb/s.

     

    My internet is just fine. I can download any other game from Steam at 2mb/s easy.

     

    Any ideas?

    One of very last patches RTW made before closing down was an update to the gunshot sounds. Players shooting far out (even beyond 100m) would have this really cool echoing muffled effect, so it sounded like it was bouncing between the buildings. I distinctly remember getting on the test server back in the day (it was the patch where they first added recoil, 1.4.1 I think), and how great it sounded.

     

    A similar effect existed for explosions too.

     

    But... Early on, G1 somehow broke this system, and never bothered to fix it (like so many other things).

     

    Could you perhaps look into it restoring it?

    The NTEC is the only assault rifle that feels good to use. Destroying it is stupid. Make all guns good, not the one good gun bad.

     

    The bottom line of this thread, is that the vast majority of you have no idea what you're talking about, don't understand the game mechanics, and probably couldn't land 2 consecutive shots on a stationary target.

     

    What should happen is, LO should get in touch with some of the top tier players who actually know how this game works and how the guns are be used, and ask them for feedback.

    I posted this back when the pack was only announced, but G1 never listened to feedback back then.

     

    The weapons in this pack, aside from the fact that they are completely useless against the current meta, look ridiculous.

     

    This is the ingame version:

    I realigned some part of the weapons to make them look cooler, and more importantly, make sense. Barrels that don't align with the bolt carrier are such an eye sore, among other things...

    This Q&A was gold.
    After years of speculation about bullshoot bans, and Tiggs pretending like there weren't, Matt Scott just came in with a sledge hammer and confirmed it.

    Plus all the other stuff he called the old G1 out on.

    They seems genuinely interested in making this game what it should have been all these years ago.

    Then again, so did G1 when they first bought it. I suppose time will tell.

    When APB launched under RTW, the gun models were very artsy, and only roughly based on their real life counterparts.

    Then G1 took over, and all the new weapons were modeled after real guns, which was a huge improvement as they actually looked good.

     

    I've made a quick comparison between some of APB's ugly weapon models, to what they were based on. As you can see, the game models are absolutely disgusting.
     

    The CR5 looks like the deformed brother of the M4A1:

    The SR15 is a disproportionate SIG 552:

    The CR762 is an ugly SIG 550:

    The OBIR might be an HK93? It's so ugly, who knows.

    The OSCAR looks pretty similar to the OBIR, so I guess it's a tacti-cool HK93:

    Any chance you could update the original game's weapons to look more inline with the new ones?
