    Player in wf na at appx 12am admitted to bribing the discord gm to get me banned. 

    At this point they are trolling you. 

    But infiltration of the hackers and cheaters into the G1 staff was reality. Tiggs had her favorites and it was known. Many of the re rolling hackers applied for GM's during G1 era and they openly bragged about it.
    Corruption is part of human nature, it exists in all real life world governments, there is no difference in internet online universe. 

    If there are really people influencing decisions of LO staff, who are shady and buying premium hacks, you can't do nothing about it. Make peace with it. You are one man against entire world.
    I personally have a real life, I couldn't care less at this point are your words true and based or fake and exaggerated. Majority of us here come to APB during weekends play 2-10 missions and go off for a week.

    I advice you that you keep your real life matters out of online games, dont share your irl drug issues you had as kid, dont share anything. There are no friends in APB. 
    Find friends irl and spend time with them instead wasting your brain cells and nerves for online scum you never gonna meet face2face. 

    I admire you that you even still fight the windmills like Don Quijote. 

    As for people leading you towards ban, thats old news. I did it myself to people who deserved it and who were racist and bullied people. They practically did entire job themselves I just knew how to rage bait them. 

    So my advice stop buying things from Armas, its your best vengeance if you believe something ill was done to you. 

     

    As for the APB discord community, I got worse opinion about it than the actual APB community.

    I don't know who sane would ever want to be a part of that small group of jobless virgin single 30-40 year's olds who live in their mother's basements and have not a single working day on paper in their entire miserable lives. I was part of it for literally 1 day until I didn't have open communication with 10 people whose collective IQ level was on a level of metal spoon. I left and deleted that group and never regretted that decision.

    I felt it was my duty as someone who have college degree to remove myself from presence of apes and stupid people, because their very existence was insulting human evolution.

     

    So have noted that there you fighting with either 30-40 years old's with no social life or with 15-20 years old's with no social life and I honestly dont know what is worse. 

    So instead of being angry that such caste system expelled you, be happy you got rid of such human filth and shadows who exist only in realm of social afking in a dead game where they can feel that they matter something until APB wont shut down and their beings vanish into the internet recycle bin void where they belong to.

     

    I will give you example of my revelation. One day I got into discussion with one player in social about real life politics and general life questions. After heated argument of almost hour and half I asked the guy how old is he. To my absolute terror he stated he is divorced 55 year old with statements and conclusions and opinions about life on a level of a 10 year old. 

    I literally questioned myself at that point...fml and wtf am I doing wasting my free weekend time arguing with 55 year old stranger in a dead video game. 

    It's like you were in night club and instead of spending your time dancing drinking and having fun, you would enter into topic about ww2 with a 55 year old stranger standing at the bar who got absolutely no knowledge about the topic he forces up but you are still standing there 2 hours discussing things. Its like dude... get the f away from me grandpa. 

    Its you who are stupid not them, if you think you can shape and affect such people's opinions and change their stances. 

    I am 27 and I say i am too old and too motherf'''ing tired for that type of shyt.

    Yeah, I'm clueless... Just wait for new content, hoping it will solve the main issues affecting player churn: cheaters and DDoS attacks. ✌️
    New players have been joining for over a month now. They say they've seen short videos from streamer-players on TikTok, Reels, etc. 🎞️

    If many players want constant new content, maybe the developers should consider a completely different concept for the new Contacts: change them every 2 months, with each new Contact having 15 levels to progress through, where you can earn specific event points that can be used to buy unique event content— but not enough points to unlock everything. And of course, each year, players would have to level up these new Contacts from scratch again. This would create the illusion of endless progression.
    This is just one example of an idea. 😉💡

    DDoS attacks are priority nevertheless. It doesn't need to be mentioned or wished for. That's absolute bottom of the bottom basics they need to do to keep the game running.

    Its like stating we need electricity to play to APB. It is known. 

    Cheaters are dealt with GFAC the learning anti cheat system or it isn't but that's the LO's stance. What can be expected here? I want your insight. What is your solution for cheaters? 

    RTW had issues with cheaters, G1 had issues with cheaters, everybody always had issues with cheaters.

    Wishing for total eradication of cheaters to me is like wishing to leave this solar system when we know that we need 9 years and 5 months to reach Pluto.

    In other words, not during my lifetime, not during your lifetime or any of us here. Cheaters will always exist.

    So imo we should stop wasting time wishing for things that will never truly happen, and focus to things which can embetter our current stay here, as long as it lasts. 

    Main priority raising the population and new content floating every here and there to keep some of the population for longer than 5 days.

    This tough is a brilliant idea imo and I salute it, hopefully people in LO will read this and consider the idea @MageLO 👍

    Honestly, I’m getting tired of seeing the same complaints over and over again.
    You guys keep demanding some kind of massive new content drops from LO, as if that’s what the majority truly needs. But most players don’t need that. New players don’t need it either — new contacts or end-game content are designed mostly for veterans, who log in on and off with long breaks anyway. And, let’s be real, most long-time players don’t actually need new contacts. Sure, new content would add some temporary variety, but the current amount is already enough.
    15–20 levels of a new contact can be leveled up in a week, and then what? It’s just like before — everyone will quickly forget about what was supposed to be a “big update” recently. 🤔

    The game never moved to the new engine, and it never will. Accept the fact that the game is simply being maintained now.

    Personally, I don’t need new content. I already own pretty much every weapon from Armas, a lot of clothes, and seasonal events are enough variety for me to keep playing — especially if each year they bring at least small differences. The only thing I’d want is for the events to last at least a month, because I have many characters to play on. My point here isn’t to brag about what I have, but to show that I’m fully willing to support the game financially — as long as the team focuses on solving the real core issue: cheaters. 👾

    I’m sure many players would prefer that LO focused on solving the main problems — cheaters. People quit because of them, or after a couple hours of facing such opponents they don’t want to return to the game for a week.

    And LO really needs to finally work on Armas. If they don’t fully understand the content that previous developers created — then make surveys. Or analyze statistics. For example: clothing bundle + permanent gun (character or account bound), or vehicle + clothing + permanent gun, or vehicle + kit + clothing + permanent gun. These types of bundles are interesting for many players who are willing to spend $20–40 a month.

    Also, Armas is missing a lot of content that already exists in-game, and players would love to have those customization items available.

    The problem is that the LO team itself never really played the game, never experienced levelling from 0 to at least rank 200 without Premium. Then they would understand what the players’ experience actually looks like.

    But if they keep listening to the constant complainers, it’s a dead end. We already had an example — splitting districts by threat. And we all remember how that ended. 🙂

     

    Honestly its funny seeing that you play since 2011 and after 14 years you are still clueless about the game and community needs. I am getting tired as well of people like you who are missing the whole point even though its right in front of your eyes the whole time. 

    Firstly, the game engine was obviously not coming, and it was obvious after 2 years LO took over and not delivering it. Everybody knew that. Nobody demanded it anymore, it became sort of troll and poke for LO, each time they did something wrong engine upgrade became excuse for community to rub their faces with it alluding to failure of realization of their promises. 

    Cheaters were problem in APB from day 1 and its unsolvable issue. Its not like they didnt try. There were at least 5+ anti cheat programs. From fairfight over eac to battle eye versions etc.

    The issue was not in lack of AC's the issue was when population dropped, this management decided to pardon all the banned scum cheaters and hackers and welcomed them back into the game. Not with 1 unban wave not with 2 but with 4 unban waves, 4 times in row they were systematically brought back.

    Further, you go on and show me one single newcomer! One! There are no newcomers to APB, and APB is long time ago not a game for newcomers!

    This game is maintained as you say only by us veterans, who re roll with new chars and make new chars. Any newcomer who comes by invite or suggestion of some veteran,, deletes APB the same day he installed it. Period.

     

    There were several massive exoduses and population mass extinctions as i like to call it. 

    First appeared when APB was down for 3-4 months, I dont recall exactly which year it has been but it did happen. During that period it was discussed should APB even be brought back again or not. 
    After it did come back, during that down time it lost several thousands players which never came back.

    Second mass exodus happened during LO era, and it was the removal of threat districts which was done under pressure of gold veterans who were bitching that they got low pop silver districts. 

    It was equal to raising doors and unleashing 400 lions (fake and legit but still lions) upon 400 legit sheep's (silvers bronzes and greens).

    Golds got what they wanted, they stomped over bronzies and silvers for weeks and they had so much fun until bronzies greens and legit silvers got sick and tired of it and quitted the game.

    I as gold player was highly against it due to dethreatings and collective joining but to no avail. Even to fools it was obvious what will happen, but they did it anyway. I hate people who cant think 2 steps ahead even. What happened? Population dropped for 70%. Gee...how did that happen i wonder?!

    Next mass exodus happened between January 2015 and October 2015 when population of 4,887 and 5000 players dropped over half to 2000 players. After which we never seen 4k+ players anymore.  February 2015 was last time APB seen population of 4500+ players.

    Fast forwarding skipping to Lil orbit New horizon, what we did? Made 4th unban wave. Good for you. It killed all remaining legit silver casual players who dont tryhard sweat and play every mission like its FIFA football world cup!

    Last mass exodus happened with districts crossing missions which finally put final nail into the coffin and was a desperate move which was counter effect. 

     

    I play since 2012 i got more than 4 accounts and over 20 chars. With all accounts I bought almost everything buyable on Armas and I say I want new content. 

    You are discussing all this with final 200 population from which all of us are veterans. I assure you there is not a single legit real newcomer person in december 2025. And even less if there is 1 single newbie, he will not last more than a day before uninstalling this graveyard of a game.

    So only way you can keep us VETERANS at this point is to give me some new motivation, new content.

    I want new clothes i want new grenades new cars new weapons. I dont care much for new levels I got over 10 chars level 270, I proved point of having no life to myself, there is nothing left to prove; but i do want something new i can spend my money for.

    I am highly against  your statement quote: "Also, Armas is missing a lot of content that already exists in-game, and players would love to have those customization items available."

    There is a reason why some clothing or weapons or weapon skins are unique. You could ve attained them only in certain age inside APB n thats it. Thats how it needs to stay.

    Otherwise there is no challenge for lazy kids can simply swipe their parents credit card and buy everything without a single drop of sweat which pisses me the f off.

    If you dont have devil wings go waste possibly 2 + years handling glitched pumpkins coming to 299'th pumpkin and realizing you need to wait entire year to get 300th and unlock devil wings. That is the charm. APB has always been a masochistic game and thats why we love it. 

    There were certain masks released during Tiggs era like Masquerade mask. If you didn't get it then and we did, I want to dance in front of you and tell you look at it...you not gonna get it, you not gonna get it (in Borat's voice). You wont go to Armas wave with your credit card and  get it for 200g1c. Because term unique loses its point of existence then.

     

    So yes I complain with reason. At this phase of APB dying, only thing that can suddenly bring back high population is indeed only and i repeat only new content. Yes it will drop after its grinded but at least it will make some people stay for few months longer until you drop some new content again and again drive them back into the game. Thats how you will keep them checking up the game from time to time instead of permanently deleting it. There are many friends on discord who are APB veterans who are just waiting for new content and they are instantly back to the game. Thats how you keep game alive. It certainly wont pay off for them to keep servers online for population of 10 people. 

    You think if they with ur suggestion reform armas and put some new shit up, you think people who didnt open APB last 2 years will be... oh boy oh boy they made combinations on armas lemme return to apb spend my money and play it now?? No.

    Cheaters as you say are a cancer we all live with for over a decade inside APB. Its nothing new, and its not solvable. Cheaters exist in every single online game, APB is no exception. So sooner you make peace with it sooner you can live with it. If you ban 2 cheaters 6 of them will rise up tomorrow, because 2 banned edgy kids will invite their friends to troll the game. That can be solved only with MAC and GUID permanent bans. Banning your motherboard physically. So as long as you have the motherboard inside your PC your shitty patootie wont be able to start APB anymore nor create new accounts. That is the only way. If you do that tough, our current 200 population will drop for at least 40-50 people. Maybe in long term it would pay off, maybe it wont but at this point its little too late for such a radical move.

    Matt needs to learn to keep his own given word or not give it at first place. 
    At AMA he clearly stated that by now Legends gonna be released. 10th December was absolute deadline. I see now that your idea is to release it with the Xmas event which is fine as well.

    But again we are lacking information here at forums. 

    Forum has to be priority platform for releasing news. Period. 

    I can't understand that entire management of lil orbit doesn't have capacity to comprehend this simplicity.

    I seriously thought that Lil orbit is Discord owner, being the fact as much as you guys pushing that platform thinking you are fancy. 

    Just beware, if you postpone Legends for after the Xmas event, in next year, there seriously won't be anyone left for you to release it for. Pop is dropping by 100 ppl every month.

    We are at 200 now. In january that will be 100 and then in february or march 2026 you can shut down all servers. Just saying. 

    People kept saying game is dead or dying, but until now that was not so evident.

    Even if they released that I think time is up. 2015 felt like yesterday.. 10 years later here we are and nothing major thing happened. Except of playerbase getting lower than minimum. Look at the American server ._.

    Let's be honest, APB wasn't popular in USA for last 10 years. Ever since I remember population there was critical. Only thing holding APB together has always been EU. 
    What I think personally is that its not too late but its definitely last train. 

    Moment they release Legends patch is gonna be like New horizon release. All of us left in APB have some veteran friends who will we let know via discord and other platforms that APB has released major update.
    Majority of them if not all, will be be back in APB in an blink of an eye. Same as it was for New horizon patch. 
    I already notified 4 my old friends who had no idea APB is even releasing any patch anymore and all of them asked me to let them know when it does happen so they come and check it out.
    Another nicely planned thing is Xmas event timing. Everybody loves Xmas, everybody liked Beacon. Some hated it but played it anyway. 
    So if all goes with the plan and Legends gets released either before Xmas or with Xmas it will certainly rise game population vividly at 300-400 if not even 500 people. 
    Yes it will only be a short term or at least until they dont grind all the stuff but that is perfect timing to try and keep some of them. Show them that game is still alive, still working, still trying to survive.
    I got some fanatical veteran friends who left only because there was nothing new in APB to do. They don't care for puny 400 jt's per week grinding, they buy jt's...with fact they got maximized most of their chars they had no challenge, so inside that big status quo situation they left.
    But as soon as something new will be achievable in the game, they will return, because APB is like addiction. You hate it, but you do it anyway.

    So I hope and hope that we change at least the little things in next months for the newcomers. 

    All people who will potentially come back for holidays will be exclusively veterans and old players who already know the drill.

    You have to be crazy if you cannot objectively see that number of players are doubling down each year as the year passes.

    When was New Horizon launched? 6th of august 2024. Check the data. 1,186 players online. Look how long that number lasted?

    Ever since, the player base kept dropping, every few months for literally 100 players less. 
    If player base was 10 000 we would not notice 100 players less... but since entire player base was around 500 you definitely notice when 100 ppl suddenly vanish. Then another 100..and now we are at 200 players. Most of which are veterans who cant let go. 
    This legends patch is the last resort you have and last chance to bring players back.

    But then after its release, we need events, we need new content we need to see that devs are actually caring for the game. Give job to more devs. Hire more devs. You cannot function with 1 physical dev. 
    I admire this man how he even decided to stay in APB. I am grateful for it. But this leads nowhere.
    It takes too long, to see any change. People are not as patient as they were.

    You are prolonging inevitable death of APB if there wont be some serious changes. 
    You cannot attract new player base with having certain glitched weapons being in usage 24/7. 
    I invite the dev to play few missions, stay in FC. Look at the bs.
    Don't get me wrong, take the critique, embrace it, improve. 

    Lets start working together on bringing the new population. Lets start with changes. It is now or never.
    If this Legendary patch gonna be postponed again after this year, next month you will have player base of 100 people. 
    When patch finally comes, you will introduce it to those 20 people left, who remained waiting only to see, get disappointed and finally delete the game. 

     

    Change the meta usage of ca3, change meta weapons usage, give chances to newcomers. Dont make them start with literally 0$ with 0 unlocked decals, that they cant even start to explore customization which is the only ace in sleeve this game has, but nobody waits that long to unlock the basics. 

    I started to develop new chars, I play for 3 months with completely new char, not daily, when I get the time. I reached rank 90 and I have to say if I weren't a veteran and in love with this game, I would have deinstalled it already 500 times.
    Its insane to compete with broken MM, without any starting weapon without any slot, without even char slot opened. Without being able to buy and use ca3 before you are rank 40. Do you have any idea how long it takes to reach rank 40 with star gun 0 slot, no grenade (since its not unlocked), no money, with basic useless car?? 

    You wonder why there are no new players? ARE you KIDDING ME?!?!?! Seriously??? Someone there sitting in Little orbit wondering why pop is dropping or why we never get new pop??
    Do you guys or your employees ever created a char? Ever tried to max your char? Do you even play???

    There needs to be some serious changes in the core! Forget engine upgrade!

    Start working on a easier process for newcomers and maybe someone will actually stick along longer than 1 hour of complete traumatic experience and torture, after which they proceed to alt f4, format the part of disk their APB was installed on, right after they chopped that disk out of their pc and set whole thing on fire; type of game experience!!
    Wake up!!

     

    New content, new events, all fine with that, but make not the tutorial process easier, but way shorter and ffs give people at least startup of 10k apb $, 1 char mod, 1 wep mod! 
    Lets brainstorm this! If someone has something against this, fine, do tell, elaborate, lets adapt. 

    But one thing is certain! This cannot continue because the APB is seriously this time dying for real, even though people kept saying game is dying since 2015...but this time, just observe the statistics. Numbers don't lie! 
    Pattern is there!

    Lets try to keep APB alive at least for few more years! Please! Lets start changing things!
    Otherwise shut the whole thing down tomorrow already and be done with it!

    And stop tormenting us further, and stop tormenting this video game program any further. Pull the plug and rest it in peace! Maybe one day somewhere sometimes someone will create APB 2.

    Since you already forbid us to comment it, lets make it official topic where we can say our opinion regarding it. 
    So 8 hours ago you said 5 hours ago servers are back online. 3 hours of another silence, nothing has happened. At least keep us posted. First it was within 1 hour then again within 1 hour then again within 1 hour. Here we are 48 hours later....

    Will you prolong those 2 hours of free jts for Halloween event which was stripped from us for servers being down? Or will you simply remove Halloween event as nothing has happened?
    Do you understand that population will suffer, as soon as your game is not up within 24hrs. Now it is 2nd day 48 hrs + and you guys still didn't give eta for servers being back up.
    When someone says pop drops, it is because of things like this where you leave your entire community in the dark without sufficient information. 
    You don't need to post us up every 1hr but every 3-4 hours would be great.
    Fix that shiit already! Tnx

    I just logged in as FE is down ATM. i can getin on any account i own across any character i have. game is working like apb always does.

    conclusion GFAC should have been tested more.

    can you speak in normal english so us noobs can understand the words coming out of your mouth?

    You managed to login into APB as FE? What is FE? 
    You can get on your acc as we can, but you own across any char you have?

    Conclusion..can you login Citadel APB or not? If its working for you maybe its client side issue not server side then.

    i can connect to NA world server after successful login but i cant connect to EU world server. It looks like server doesn't exist. Like chars I choose don't even have their stats on, so playtime 0 hrs at each.
    It isnt client issue. Its server issue. Since otherwise I wouldn't be able to login into Jericho. 
    It seems when it comes to APB issues you and me always have identical problems.

    will this maintenance fix possible issues with matchmaking? i can make a ticket but I've spent the past hour in a fairly full district with no mission. 

    Someone has been naughty, since it has been said millions of times by now that if you are not getting a mission in a full district means you know very well what you were doing by macroing and cheating generally. Meaning your patootie got shadow banned and you will not get missions because you don't deserve to get a mission you piece of s. 

    Era of cheating is coming to an end. This will reveal many gold veterans like you who joined 2014 and since then you bully player base and community with your un-allowed "config" bs.
    I would give anything on this world to see your type players ego's crumble once you enter the game without any side programs, without any side help, without any potato graphics and have to actually be legit and show your real skills. But since you use cheat so long you will probably be owned by middle tier silvers.
    Whoever asks here why are they not getting any missions in full district instantly exposes himself as cheater. So thank you for that. I will remember your name.
