  1. of course it does, it's on the same forums. sadly you can't limit content trackers to certain parts of the forums - so you gotta be on lookout where it is. the fix is coming, and you should know if you followed his content: they are working on the engine upgrade.
  2. you'll be shocked to know that canonical is a 65.7m corporation and is founder of the ubuntu foundation, that suse makes 300m/yr, red hat 2.4b... okay, okay, there is debian. and obviously they are open source. but still. those are quite big companies in the tech industry i'd say. windows is already monetised. they have candy crush advertisements, lol. there's also onedrive subscriptions, office subscriptions (obviously not directly windows, but those are being advertised in there)... they probably won't make updates subscription based or anything like that, that'd be basically how mac os was back then - and as you can see, that wasn't sustainable. there is no justifiable concern that windows will get any further form of monetization. microsoft is also moving towards open source projects (bot framework, visual studio code,...) and they've been a long time funder of open source projects (also some linux ones, plus you can even have embedded linux systems (no, not virtual machines) in windows...) windows will probably never become oss but microsoft is actually a quite decent company. of course they work with intelligence agencies, collect data and use it to their advantage though. in comparison, there are way much more "evil" ones though. but you do you. enjoy linux. i couldn't bear to use it from day to day for personal stuff although it has stuff going for it. using windows 7 these days is pretty ridiculous though and there is no room to make complaints if someone or some company doesn't support a 10 year old os (hey, 22 days away from the anniversary!) - especially not a game studio/publisher that is getting funding from microsoft, lol - or a small one like LO.
  3. how does it get rid of apbs aesthetic? they just use a few higher textures, the screenshots baaasically look the same you and skay, the only ones (there is at least one more: todesklinge showed off his two 4k screens around the time when tiggs showed off her 10k$ pc lul)
  4. hmmm... those cars look kinda like they are glowing? is this normal? they are also all pretty matte-looking... i guess matt said they are not done. still looks a bit weird. glad to see it seems to work?
  5. more like 1 or 2, lol osmaw isn't even that bad although it seems powerful to new players. issue is those get targeted in lower districts to farm weapon roles (or those mainly playing osmaw just being lowrank cause they cant compete lol)
  6. just saw a supermegacutie move a thread to off-topic im in love

    GOLDS

    jeez 239 bronze with nfas are you sure they didn't do this on purpose (clantags?) i mean, i know a few true high rank bronzes but i also know people who deliberately dethreat (to green even) everyone is aware the current system can't stay like that but if g1 has taught us something, stricter district threat limits aren't it. maybe penalties. but with phasing this should all be a problem of the past anyway.
  8. sadly this has also been done multiple times.
  9. i'm more than positive that they are already aware and further messages are not needed (especially after the amount of prior ones like exactly this) if the previous ones didn't change the ways, why would this one. the priorities big parts of the community see were argued pretty clear and plenty. sorry if you added anything new, maybe you shouldn't have put stuff that was all said more than often enough before, i couldn't bother to read further after reading all the same in the first full half. that's not what ego means
  10. have you read the OP? it doesn't seem like it, since he did state reasons adressing exactly that. (who knows if that's all sincere but... all bad assumptions you read aside, his reasons could seem pretty sound) press Win+Pause/Break (and for gpu, go to hardware/device manager (upper left) from there) or press Win+R and type in dxdiag not that hard to know your hardware
  11. you're claiming to work in IT but seem to be unable to use the forums search function along with google. how curious. that's just not how it works. you can't just fix the mm system in its current state, it does its best with what it can work with. 80 players per district and a reasonable wait time just make a good mm experience impossible. it does have apparent flaws, mainly dethreating being quite easy but which game doesn't allow this.
  12. as it was stated in the post, seasonal rewards are planned and leveling up the contact is just supposed to give you JT for now it's a beta
  13. there also were threads abt this for months op just doesnt know how to search apparently

    hey

    henwwoo :33 uwu
  15. nah nah, i meant magazine size xd was quite ambiguous, i know, sorry i was under the impression that the lcr had 30 or 32 bullets but it actually only has 24... hmmm
  16. so it uh... basically is a straight upgrade to the lcr, no actual downsides? (the recoil didn't seem too noticable but maybe it just seems like this in the vid... and ye okay, 5? 7? bullets less but i wouldn't count this as a real big factor? hm) nice gameplay nevertheless hmmm
  17. good that it works again - but: don't run a 10 year old OS. upgrading is free - and: if privacy is a concern - don't use windows in the first place. 7 already had a bunch of telemetry and more added through patches (plus. those are *very* easy to remove/disable/prevent) if security is an issue, you must be joking. if performance is an issue... windows 10 is more perfomant nowadays - depending on the game. it had issues in the beginning in general but it's running more smooth than 7 ever now - in modern titles that is... this does exclude an amount of older games though. this sucks buuuuut - see next point (3) as well as (6) if compability is an issue... that's tough. however, support for 7 is being dropped left and right (by amd, intel, nvidia - and "even" microsoft) - so you gotta make that jump either way at some point. so why not now. it's shit to drop some compability but it's just a matter of priorities. if design is an issue, there are lots of tools to change that. many modern games (including from bigger studios) and many modern software (from way bigger devs) stopped supporting windows 7 - why would a small studio have to support it and load itself with more work it was announced that with 3.5 support of 32bit systems will go too (iirc), they are a relic of the past and so is windows 7. to be fair, this probably shouldn't have happened like it did here though (and not before engine upgrade either) if i missed any possible reason... feel more than free to correct me. or state yours.
  18. Ja, ja, das ist gut. Gestern war ich Milch kaufen, aber die Regale waren leer.
  19. okay, fortnite has... sorry, no clue. but that's probably what's a good game to you. or what about fifa? jk, what qualifies as a good game to you? especially one where you trade with npcs and that brings out new content once in a while? borderlands 2 used various different currencies too, minimum 3 in basegame (dollars, golden keys, iridium) + a few in dlcs. but probably that sucks to you too? pubg has 2? different kinds of tickets, some currency to get treasures... and that's arbitary af with this kind of system, i'd get if you criticized that but... yeah, not even close. yes it doesn't mean that - but it means that you can cut them some slack. there's probably no (much?) better way to make people actually play it at first (and hopefully the gamemode is engaging enough to make people want to play it longer... because in the long run, who wants to grind a gamemode for currency... oh wait, fc :^) jk) and... it's the same irl even, in an arcade you get tokens/tickets - instead of just being able to buy their prizes, to actually make you play the games (well okay, to lose a portion of your money... this shouldn't be the case here... so bad comparison xd) idk fam. i feel like this is a fair enough move. let's see if they even implement it like that, that's just what was said to be the concept some time ago. (iirc)
  20. ye, it's just the beta https://www.gamersfirst.com/apb/news/2019/5/31/fun-fair-fixed i mean... they are all used for very different purposes (and only jt and dollars are used ingame)... and if they just used, say, JTs, the people collecting them for ages could just straight up buy all the rewards... and had less of an incentive to play the new gamemode idk 3 currencies doesnt sound bad either... almost every other mmo has a way bigger amount of arbitary stuff... i mean just look at warframe, wow, destiny, gw2... the latter basically have own tokens for each map.
  21. They were also gonna do RIOT tokens and seasonal rewards that you can buy with those. Bear in mind, this is the beta of the gamemode and not the full release so of course there aren't the rewards that you'd get for playing during a season yet. Currently the reward is getting to try and influence it early (read: being a more or less unrewarded tester)
  22. Try deleting C:\Program Files(x86)\Easy Anti Cheat\easyanticheat.sys It should be replaced at the next launch, it's probably faulty. Found that on other forums, had the same issue before too, seems to be gone now. Otherwise, check C:\Windows\Minidump\ - it should contain a dump from the time it crashed, if you open that up (notepad should work) it should say what exactly caused the issue for more info, otherwise it's hard to troubleshoot
  23. no, that is (pretty certainly) a bug. you could use a glitch in editor before to make certain parts of a car disappear, this was fixed though, as far as i know, and everyone that they caught had their car(s) removed or were taken other actions against. (and i reckon the lower picture shows one of those bugged cars) (not sure if this is the same glitch as making your character appear nude?) maybe there is a calabrio (xd) in the files too but if you see that stuff ingame it's pretty safe to say that it's a bug i'm pretty sure it's not unused and in the files since you can't find it on (either) apbdb (well, i couldn't) and yeah, this picture looks pretty much how i remember the glitched versions
