    • 2:21 You can clearly see aimbotting in that video. You can see the old fashion snapp when he starts shooting the wall towards the other player. Then he re-ajusts to kill Summit1G.
    • 3:00 you can clearly see his wall hack. He starts cooking a grenade but Summit1G runs in the other direction. To which he stopps cooking the grenade, runs in the opposite direction to catch Summit1G.

    Excellent bans .

    the guy you accuse of cheating wasnt even the one that got banned though

    Agree 100%, people want a game that respects their time for playing.

    When I tried playing Warframe and they wanted real money for full access to the default colour palette I uninstalled it and that's just cosmetics.

     

    I made a 2nd crim to level with a friend (+document the levelling experience) and I have probably over 250 hrs on her, but only JUST reached R195 and allowed to use certain things. And for what? A muzzle break? Why is that R195? The only gun that really benefits is the SHAW and no one really uses it with or without the MB, it's a joke.

     

    I can't even imagine how hopeless some newer players feel about it.

    see? the r195 mods are pretty much worthless so it's no biggie

     

    just kidding ofc

    the rank requirements dont make tooooo much sense but back in the days they just made me way more excited to reach those ranks. might be frustrating to some though.

    and well, there are jts to alleviate that a bit which also got easier to earn over the years

    still room for discussion ig

     

    but tbf just 250h? that's pretty quick

    The game should be closed, even though games nowadays suck, APB is still worse than them.

     

    nah

     

    but i am surprised how it's staying alive

    i'm glad though

    despite not actively playing (anything) anymore

     

    oh there's no post merging anymore whoops sorry

    Maybe some extra testing would have been best before making tis live.

    you seem to be one of the first to encounter this problem

     

    and it might as well be due to some specific hardware

     

    they cant test all hardware (and you could've during the open beta)

     

    sucks though, sorry for you, hoping for a fix 🙂

    Districts in APB were 50v50 when I started playing it. At one point in time the district cap got lowered to 40v40 due to server performance: https://apbreloaded.blogspot.com/2015/02/new-apb-servers.html

     

    If servers can benefit from the x64 environment then that is a solid yes as that will help with the benchmarks that happened years ago against district population. If not, x64 with Cross-District matchmaking will allow the matchmaker to consider those in a ready-state across other districts, it will then move them all to an appropriate district. I never came across in-depth details of how that will happen (will there be loading screens? will players phase inside civilian traffic? no clue atm).

     

    x64 is regarding the client though. not a serversided upgrade (yet) if i understood it correctly. why would it, anyway? i guess a new ue version would come with upgrades to the framework on the server side as well - buuut... it would be surprising if the statements from your article (which i also remembered) wouldnt still hold true - the console version doesn't have better servers and already had some newer parts of the framework (right?)

    So far, Todesklinge's track record with threads regarding Kevlar and game balance (ignoring this very thread) includes, as listed on his forum profile:

    • a demand for Clotting Agent and a few other things to be removed because he can't combat them, in September 2021.
    • a miscategorized thread which calls Kevlar's underperformance a "bug", in January 2021.
    • a complaint about Clotting Agent beating him, a Kevlar user, which somehow proves that Clotting Agent needs to be nerfed, in October 2020.
    • a claim that using meta weapons is actually cheating, in August 2020.
    • a whole slew of weird demands for gameplay changes that essentially boil down to "Kevlar should make me a bullet sponge", in July 2020.
    • an empty complaint with no proposed fixes regarding the shape of the meta, in December 2019.
    • a proposal that Kevlar go as far as increasing player health by 45%, along with a whole bunch of other wild math misadventures, in October 2019.
    • a suggestion of making Kevlar the only way to survive an N-HVR shot, in October 2019.
    • a "bug report" of Kevlar 3 making players slower at retreating into cover in fights against snipers, in August 2019.
    • a call for Kevlar to become singular instead of existing in 3 variants, and to have it increase player health by 60%, in September 2019.
    • a generic complaint about being too slow because of Kevlar, in August 2018.

    If you feel like you've seen this thread before, it's because this is almost the only thing this user posts about.

    Credit where it's due, Todesklinge is the most persistent member of the community, even if for the worst possible reasons. Continuing to use a character mod that has – over the course of over 5 years – proved itself to drag you down in most fights is a feat that I quite literally don't know how to describe.

    are the old forums around somewhere? it's been like that there too

    Have you posted this thread before (months ago. Not the accidental duplicate today) or are all your posts so similar that it just seems that way?

     

    Merged.

     

    Joined Jul 2012 and he still doesn't understand that movement is the most important thing in an APB firefight.

    he posted this thread years ago for the first time. like 2014. todesklinge is quite the meme.

     

    kevlar is weaker than ca or even flak for sure, but like all i'd ever want to see would be a slight movement speed increase, no other changes. definitely not more hp - in my opinion. it already is quite a chunk of hp. and does give you a big advantage in open field battles - yes, these are less common than other encounters but that doesn't mean you can just make it way too strong in these. maybe the tiniest bit to make it more consistent so every weapon (besides sniper ofc) needs at least one additional shot - i'm not sure if that isn't already the case but idk, maybe e.g. pmg.

     

    fragile could also use some tweaks.

     

    now... i hope no one tells him that al of these mods don't have an effect if the enemy is using stabba - besides the movement speed differences.

    Either accept that the game may be done for, or wait.

    Pushing the engine out unfinished will wreck so much havoc and you'd never see APB alive ever again if they'd do that.

     

    Give it time. They're technically the fourth company working on this. They have to figure out how to deal with the mess of a code the previous 3 companies left behind. They tried working on G1s pathetic engine upgrade attempt. Now they're basically doing everything from scratch. It's their first game of this caliber.

     

     

    //Edit: God damn this is an old topic. I didn't know the forums died out that much. :(

    you could almost call this one a necro lmao

     

    i'd sure like to know what's going on behind the curtains. certainly they are working on it but... what about funds and if they actually see realistic chances of achieving much still...

     

    ah well.

    not even a fancy shirt? or a new cat maybe a car?

    i do believe a cat - or a car - might actually be more expensive in the long run. not sure though. also, don't trust apb players with cats, did you ever see their characters? 80% dream of breeding catgirls. (20% gang represent)

    no, they don't contradict each other. new players lose missions and would have to grind harder. players who already amounted masses of cash wouldn't really care all that much - and would probably win more often. doesn't matter if it's easy outside - and damn would it suck to not be able to play the main game but having to grind ram raiding more.

     

    "players have no reason to not always buy and use the 'best' weapons in the game even against lower skilled players"

    nor would they then. you buy the weapons for 10 days anyway, not on a mission base so you wouldn't know who you'd face, ammo costs are always the same too within one weapon type.

     

    others than that, it would shift the game more towards p2w since paying players would face way less constraints and could adapt to every situation much more easily - especially if they bought 90% of armas *cough cough*. no thanks. i don't see any good pro argument but a lot of cons.

    Neat, thanks for the info. We do indeed learn something new every day.

    I mean, the game's quite fun (when you get decent matches). That fact isn't mutually exclusive with the facts that Little Orbit is just another rebranding of K2 (with extra steps), and MattScott is a scumbag who's openly lying to the community to get people to spend more money on the game (this is known as "predatory marketing" and is both morally and ethically disgusting).

     

    hey king

    you dropped this

    also i dont see how this game is fun without kevlar reworks by hexerin™

    #ReleaseTheEngine

    q1 2014 is 7 years ago 🙂

     

    you can see matts updates. i trust little orbit much more than g1 - but i also really hope they haven't overburdened themselves here

     

    i sadly can see this being the case but i'm really full of hope for some future of apb.

    Reminder that by doing this, you are part of the problem that continues to demonize cultures around the world that still use the swastika (and similar symbology) to this day.

     

    I wonder if someday, the US will grow up to the point that they're mature enough to join the modern civilized world...

    germany is already part of it - i'm glad you see the shortcomings of the USA though - yet the actual swastika also isn't allowed in various scenarios here (not videogames anymore but alas - also obviously not forbidden in every context.). 🙂

     

    i don't see a relation to not using this symbol and not being part of the modern civilized world though. because words and symbols have national history they tend to mean different things to different people and in different cultures. be it the n-word or a swastika - because us and german history is closer to the nazi history and it didn't have much of a past here before that but they do in other places.

     

    i'm sure you're also aware of the classic example of different perceptions of the peace/victory hand sign.

     

    i don't know anyone demonizing the chinese or japanese culture for the use of swastika-esque symbols. and i definitely have not heard of a culture of demonizing for keeping using their symbols.

     

    are the chinese or japanese more civilized than us-americans? maybe - but not because they use these symbols.

    Who is "everyone"?

    Look around. There is no one left to play this game. Even if someone decides to return they get thrown vs those few groups several matches in a row even.

     

    Also don't you think pre-made groups should be facing other pre-made groups anyway? If that was the case i wouldn't have an issue with it.

     

     

    that's how it would work with higher pop. if those aren't available, it can't do that. matchmaking.

     

    but sure, let only loners into this game, because those will rope in all their friends. 😉

     

    great idea.

    think you need to give some more description to your issue, were exactly are you looking to purchase the item ? joker store , marketplace or armas? 

     

    been awhile since I visited the joker store, if im right in thinking that joker store doesn't do perm guns, or not a vast range, especially if its on Armas Here  

    i might be wrong. 

    nop, almost all weapons are available as permanent albeit character-bound for JTs

     

    @op, are you sure you have enough JTs and apb$ needed for the weapon? pls do provide some screenshots (win+shift+s or alt+print and upload them on imgur (no acc needed, just paste it))
