    not a bug. it's just unused in the game... I mean we can't hit people inside cars, and having a cabrio would make things weird...

    5tf1ed5.jpg

    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

    is APB 2.

     

    San Paro Origins in 1855. (The horse is the equivalent of Vegas 4x4, plus it can kick back with pushing LSHIFT)

    Note: Is located near Sierra Nevada (Espana)

     

    There will be also an APB 3. Located between Callisto ,Titano and Venus Orbital Colony. (2100-2120)

    i prefer apb 4, it is located between euphrat(es) and tigris, in the valley where honey and milk flows. (10.000-8.000 BC)

    Its amazing they haven't taken a bunch of small things, small suggestions, gathered them up and made a real official patch. Things they really can't go wrong with like removing P5 and more clothing.

    i don't think adding new clothing is something small

     

    removing n/p5 is also a questionable topic,

    while people hate it in its current state it's still a somewhat fun mechanic? absolute shit during missions though. (except when it's in your favor lul)

    and it does kinda belong to the game at this point. not a too safe of a change is all i'm saying.

    ideally they'd just leave it up in fight club and the likes.

    (but there is always room for discussion is all i'm trying to point out)

     

    and i mean, they did change a lot around the game.

    it doesnt seem too reasonable to add new stuff to the old engine if this just means more stuff to port over.

    i doubt either of us has a real clue how deep the engine upgrade goes and what it all involves.

     

    adding a new jmb over some "normal" armas content seems a bit offputting to me too.

     

    but ye e.g. the addition of permanent weapons to JT store is a small but neat change.

     

    but - overall i agree with you. there are some small changes they probably could've and should've made - although it's still just not like LO didn't do nothing/only added the trading system.

    LO is starting to turn into Gamerfirst and its clearly showing. Its june 2019 for goodness sake and they can't even show us pictures or video of anything. And even worse, they make a blog about a stupid joker box. OMG, Seriously.

     

    And i may be the only one, but i could care less about riot mode. All they did was add some crates and stuff taken from other parts of the map and add them to another part of the map and added some equipment and called it an event. The only mode i cared about was the Kill event, it was fun killing for prizes/premium.

     

    I think at this point, we want a new full district or finish up asylum. I don't think the engine upgrade is coming, but that's just my views.

    no, many people said that before - with the (probable) typo in there, your statement might even be more sensical at this point

     

    take off your tinfoil hat, they have (had?) players already test(ing) and play(ing) on it that confirmed various changes.

    but nah, they are probably paid to say this

     

    in jmbs :^)

     

    the blog post only had the jmb as one topic among various others.

    and no - g1 didn't do anything for 4 years.

    i wouldn't even mind a new early g1. they brought us lots of content too (among also fucking up various things though. but "where wood is chopped, splinters must fall"). late g1 was dreadful though.

    tl;dr the issues aren't hardware macros, software macros are. and not even the official mouse producer ones; it's AHK and the likes. and those should be acted upon. stop derailing the thread with stating "but you can hit better firerate with xyz" - tapfire macros are literally irrelevant.

     

    will eac pickup macros?

    hardware macros? probably never.

    they also are mostly a non-issue - fire rate macros should be the least of your concern.

    ofc, two identically skilled players in same situation... the macro user might have an edge, depending on the weapon since they could hit the more ideal firerate more consistently (ignoring that this is also (partially) depending on the range - a mouse couldn't adjust to the range dynamically, a player can (unless you have a key for each distance-range lmao))

    but: "ceteris paribus" is total nonsense just to push an agenda here.

    at high skill levels...

    who relies on fire rate macros to get an edge probably is setting their priorities wrong and is not on a very high skill level otherwise and can be thus beaten... fire rate is easy to learn and master. only so much "training" required - whereas tactics, teamplay aren't too easy and require much more - and those are vastly more important.

     

    i guess even then... those with exactly same firing intervals can detected more easily, those with slight random deviation from the ideal fire rate wouldn't gain anything over a normal player.

     

    it wouldn't hurt to ban either, obviously, but it's probably way too hard to - safely - detect the former and even harder to detect the latter. without causing false-positives.

    (the former are probably also not too easy to detect with polling rate and ingame input update frequency)

     

    no recoil macros aren't a thing with random spray patterns... (they'd be an issue in csgo etc i guess - but even there - a game which is vastly more competitive and skill reliant no one is whining over those) so that's it for hardware macros.

     

    but the bigger issues are software macros.

    punkbuster didn't allow you to launch the game if you had ahk running, for a good reason:

    you can make "cheap" triggerbots because of red crosshair. this stuff is only detectable with software macros (or some really advanced hardware that isn't getting used yet lmao)

     

    this shit should be detected. and it's probably not too hard to detect - in opposition to hardware.

    under pb ahk was only detected until you changed the name and whatnot of it - i had a bundled version for minimizing to tray and other things and wasn't kicked for it. when i created a music control bind script myself with an official version i was kicked. ideally an anticheat should detect both.

    oh no, they "leaked" that there's gonna be a new anticheat although that was already on the semi-official discord

     

    that changes everything, every cheater will be prepared. they wouldn't see the updates or files otherwise...

    i genuinely dont care dude, forum means drastically less to me than it matters to you obviously. you are the only one that even mentioned it is a "duplicate". wanna know why? cuz no one cares!

    you're caring enough to reply 🙂

     

    also, quite a drastic change in tone

     

    also idk "i do dumb, annoying stuff and when someone points it out, i'll continue, that'll show em - because noone cares"

    way to go

    it's literally on frontpage - if you found how to create a new topic, you should've also seen this.

    and you should always check if your thread is just gonna be a duplicate. through a quick search - that wouldn't even have been necessary, since *this is on the frontpage*

    sorry lul

    I thought you were calling my post low effort and I was about to be like "listen here you little sh**." Then I realized this was a different thread throwing up the same exact question I had, good call lol😂

    although i gotta say the title of that poll could've been better and it made the thread easy to miss :^)

     

    rude btw

    ???

    you can always decide to not take part in team alliances.

    it's in the group "menu"

     

    if you complain that groups with actual communication have it easier - lol.

     

    i'm also mostly a solo player - but since apb IS largely reliant on team tactics and not one guy playing rambo (or trying to be solid snake, lol) - that's something one just has to deal with. not like you couldn't do your own thing most missions, it's not like you'd ever get in a match against WASP (do they still exist?) with this mentality.

     

    that also being said - there's fight club. there you go. a mode where you can basically play alone.

    RTX is still a meme.

     

    Nvidia jumped the gun on that one.

    who knows if ms would've added raytracing support to directx otherwise...

    game developers probably wouldn't have ever looked into it either otherwise...

    customers - the public in general - probably wouldn't have cared at all...

     

    i think although it's not amazing yet, i think they've started paving a way at least...

    Naw, Tiggs got a bad rap for banning a lot of popular closet cheaters.... it was only later she had a nervous breakdown and started banning everybody... can't really blame her though.  APB is full of dweebs.  As for actual SUPPORT Tiggs did a great job, be honest.  I mean she ANSWERED support tickets.......

    yeah, very bad rap

    on j cole levels

     

    they also took 2-3 weeks for most tickets unless you complained on forums

    but sure, everything was better back then

     

    oh wow, and flash sales to milk the game they didnt update and that they neglected for 4 years.

    do you realize that the permanent prices are on/below g1s "sale" niveau?

     

    what a big step down LO is. i wish we had g1 back completely instead. 100%
