are you speaking in Old Entish because it takes you a very long time to respond.

Ever wish the Anti cheat worked like the Anti name and shame.....

Click Whisper to the player. swap the \whisper with \report

if you remember G1 tried this as well as LO. It ended up as a standoff between 2 teams with sniper rifles.

maybe. Its a terrible game to moderate to be honest. So much going on. I dont envy them, but at the same time, they need to get on top of it.

If they ban a player for not playing the mission before they ban the players for cheating, the system is well and truely broken. Fix the cheating then worry about other things later.

There is already a list out there of all the cheaters, their alt accounts etc... But you have to ask the question, why no name and shame. Its done in other enviroments, such as crime, competitions, sports etc... This is why i say its a very safe enviroment for cheaters and the silence only cultivates more cheating. Here is the hard truth....... LO are way too soft with cheaters and cheaters know this. The general understanding is, its worth cheating. Mathematically its worth cheating, you make much more money its a lot more fun and you can flex as much as you want, your name will never be on a list of banned cheaters (officially) . All of this outweighs the risk of a banning. If they are banned they have multiple other accounts that they will move across to and wait to get their main account back. At this moment in time there are way too many pro's to cheating then to not cheating. Non Cheaters wont have as much fun will win less wont make as much money will level up much slower will be abused by other players wont make a name for themselves will play another game Cheaters will have a lot more fun will make a name for themselves will monitarily make money streaming will look good streaming will win more games will level up faster will get legendaries faster dont have to worry about getting called out for cheating will get their account back if banned

First of all, LO will never ever ever do this. But I understand the idea, and its basically the community acting as a moderator. Its how games used to be run. Back then there was a stigma to cheating. Cheating has now become part and parcel of APB and i do blame LO for allowing that enviroment to happen. Purposfully or not.

This is what Matt spoke about and apparrently this has been happening. I have noticed quite a lot of games, Either team has a player that is getting 30+ kills whilst the rest of the players are on 5 or 6. Which i still think is a little unfair to all the other players. I do judge moderation and cheat detection based on what i see in the first 2 games of the day. This weekend has been an absolute Sh$£Show for cheating.

playing tonight and players on my team and the other team are killing with 2 - 3 shots. Audibly its pop pop pop dead. I know they are emptying the clip but they sound cant even catch up.

its rough for new players as well as really frustrating. With regards a "Ban Wave" im not sure if that is going to happen or if there is a new tactic. But they have said that there have been bans. Players who i have seen cheat have not been around for the past month so i am guessing that they are gone. Some players who i know cheat are still around. Some players who used to cheat are now not very good. I am seeing less people spamming the .45 Then again i have teamed with some old familiars running around doing their thing, literally running up to a corner jumping and firing the hand gun killing unsuspecting opponents.. But i dont think there is a quick fix. There are a few groups of players determined to cheat in the game and will consistantly use cheats on their multiple accounts. A lot of us know who they are. Some quiet and some toxic. The good thing is the fact that there are a lot less "you are just bad" players who are defending cheaters, who are normally doing something themselves. This means that the psyche of the playerbase has shifted somewhat and is seeing cheating as a shamful thing within the game. So hold tight, you can still find some good games.

Matt did say, if its taking longer, the harder it is to find a solution. So if you were Effing about, expect to wait.... Out of all the people that i play with, none of us have even opened a ticket in the last 5 years. So i dont know what you all are doing...

Like the Obir, it wasnt popular for a very long time, hardly anybody used it, then suddenly out of the blue it became popular....

We all know that if this were to happen, the PUG servers would be full.

Maybe you werent banned. You are just bad at logging in.

Simple fact is, this gun became popular over night after a certain cheat was released and continues to be so. It is now "normal" to use this cheat as players have been using it for years. If this gun does get a nerf, suddenly the Frog will be the most popular gun for the exact same reason. But the game is completely unbalanced with it.

Simple solution and have been saying it for years .... Servers for pre-made teams. Clan wars. Servers for Players ungrouped. Usual players will not like this as they want to team with their friends to stomp silvers and think of every excuse why this is a bad idea.

no , some people like a mosh pit, some people like ping pong. Gold Servers were just ping pong .

As negative as i come across with this game. I really do see the work LO do in trying to appease everybody. But Its a hard hard job, i dont always like the decisions. @MACKxBOLAN you are one of the few people on this forum that make me happy. Keep your head up ! ! We will get through this.

no no no no. Bronze servers where thriving and people played the game like it was supposed to be played. The games were fun and unpredictable. Teams were fair, car chases and explosions. Ramming and running over players. Cars flying through the air. Percs and grenade spamming. Yes there were dethreaters, but people were losing on purpose because the bronze servers were so much more fun. Gold servers were first to die. Why ? because they were boring AF .... peek shoot, peek shoot, peek shoot, peek shoot Get The Item, peek shoot peek shoot, peek shoot, peek shoot. Drive to the next spot, peek shoot peek shoot peek shoot, peek shoot. Defend The Door, peek shoot peek shoot peek shoot. Kill The Other Team, Peek Shoot, Peek Shoot, Peek Shoot, Peek Shoot, Peek Shoot, Peek Shoot, Peek Shoot, Peek Shoot, Peek Shoot. Those barriers were removied and within months the population declined to its lowest ever.

i wouldnt say that, we got some really decent items in the last month. Trench coat (females only) I am hoping the next update will be for males. We got the tech suits with different textures, qipao dress, new tshirts, tattoo sleves etc...

if only there was a way of segrigating the servers based on threat level.......

Then all handguns should be nerfed. Balance should not about 1 individual weapon, but on how a weapon unbalances games. These are new days. Everybody is on the same servers. This gun completely unbalances the whole game. Lets not underestimate its huge multiple sale value. Players buy it, get banned, create a new account, buy it again , get banned, go to their other account, buy it again etc.....

I think there are some changes to the accidental killings and suicides. I have accidently blown myself up with my own grenade, and the player who last shot me gets the kill. I have had some strange occurences recently in which 2 of us kill each other but a player 300m away behind multiple buildings somehow got the kill on me with his handgun, despite never shooting me. Also i do see more silvers getting leadership ahead of golds. The gold comes into the team and the first thing he does is request leadership. I have seen a lot of fight back from players declining the leadership requests recently.

You are not the only one, i see it every day. I saw it today again. The game at this moment in time is unplayable for silvers and new players. Its a far cry from were it was 2 weeks ago. One player that sticks out for me, was a player that years ago i saw berating silvers in his team. Shooting them so they would retaliate, then he would kick them. Saw him again 2 weeks ago doing the exact same thing. He is named after a Portugese Footballer that played for Man U. Absolute scum.
