to me it should be exactly the other way around - armas exclusives shouldnt be more expensive, since they should be equal choices and not better/more premium/whatever. reskins - that are purely cosmetic and come down to a player just wanting to look different - could cost (a bit) more in the end, having same prices for everything would also be reasonable. but - it is obvious that some weapons are way more niche and less versatile than others - so they should be cheaper because they are less desireable because of that. all of the guns should have their rightful place and have the same tier gameplay-wise, but an smg that is as versatile as an ar would probably also not make sense. since they are supposed to be not worse overall though... hm. makes it seem... off.

probably that was cleaned up by now either way, was just saying... ye, i do agree there.

as far as i remember these are/were also an entirely different weapon, neiter ntec nor scoped (the prices are still off) sorry, can you link them? just genuinely curious which they are.

i did argue the same as you before. but yeah - that's f2p for you. they gotta make money somehow and - guess what, many people just stick to the free options, so others that are willing to gotta pay. the prices are much more reasonable than ever though. you also don't gotta go for the most premium option - as in 3slot acc bound perm. there are alternatives, like 0 slot acc bound perm (25$ for 5 weapons) or 3 slot char bound perm...

ye same, unless it is for armas exclusive reskins... i mean it is a fact though that some weapons are way much more versatile...

that is the top of the line though. it's not 24 euros either, it's 24 dollars

there is an option for non-acc bound/perm then xd nah, i get you. but - the prices are way much more fair in comparison though. it used to be 50$ per gun as maximum, now it's 24 at max. there are also guns a fair bit cheaper. i think the best thing is the bundle of 5 zero-slot weapons for a bit of under 25$ https://www.gamersfirst.com/marketplace/ingame/product_details.php?storetype=g1c&gameID=20&catID=63&subcatID=204&productId=3812 includes basically one weapon accbound perm for most possible situations minus antivehicular... 0 slot tho.

works for me now! they are down from 3999 g1c to 2999 g1c at max from what i've seen. along with 20% cheaper g1c, it is quite a significant decrease. 0.8*0.75=0.6 every weapons price has been lowered by 40% as minimum from what i've seen. they said the price was actually reduced by 20-50% in this patch so the effective decrease over original gamersfirst is between 36% and 60% to top it off, these prices are also getting decreased by premium, so it'd be between 51,2% and 68% (sorry for math errors, only did those numbers in my head) now... this is a relatively reasonable baselevel i guess? i do think it is still a lot to ask for. you're looking at 30$ for the most expensive weapons. (24$ with premium sounds pretty fair - atleast in comparison - though) however, the prices were considerably lowered. maybe they'll do a 20% sale one day, but this is already better than the sales niveau of g1. so - asking for further lowering or an additional sale seems highly unreasonable - atleast at this point of time.

the pr2 should be more expensive than the pr1 though i guess all other points seem very valid (including general preset pricing inconsistencies which also affects this) i still do think 30 dollars is still a quite high asking price (unless there are sales in future i guess that would give players another option too - 30 sounds like a fair "base"price) - even for accbound perm (bear in mind, this is just for one weapon. if you wanted one for each scenario you'd easily end up at 3-4 primaries and 1-2 secondaries - that is barely comparable with the prices of AAA games). (it doesnt really affect me, i already have like 70 accbound perm weapons + legendaries, i'm not begging. just saying. guess the numbers will tell.) definitely a good change. i guess when converting to euros the prices seem even more fair. especially with premium. it's still lower than g1s sales prices, so i can't *really* complain. now... the page still doesnt load for me though, i can't actually look at the mp

just try things out, just consider going low sens to proactively prevent carpal tunnel/rsi syndrome. high dpi + (very) low sens is better to avoid pixel skipping, since the ingame and windows sensitivity settings are basically a multiplier of what the mouse detects.

ah yes good memories

beacon>baylan idg why missions were removed from all fcs either

it's not a script, it's just changed textfiles. manually (more or less)/(but definitely) inofficially. there is no option for this. any modification to the clients files (outside of certain configs e.g. by advanced launcher) can lead to bans. there wasn't an explicit exception made for these textfiles so battleye might get triggered. there hasn't been an explicit warning about not being allowed to do this specifically either. i don't see how it is so bad, considering you can just look it up in apbdb(v2) too - there are more gamebreaking things. but ye, it is most definitely not >allowed<.

there is an admin tracker directly built into the forums https://forums.gamersfirst.com/discover/6/ i've also made one that includes all mods i've encountered so far https://forums.gamersfirst.com/discover/15/ there is an admin tracker on apbvault/apbdbv2 https://db.apbvault.net/tracker/ apbdb is inofficial (just like apbvault) and is not being worked on anymore by the author (unlike apbvault) so: no action from LO needed whatsoever (probably not even possible) vendetta didnt get funding and was most likely completely abandoned (retribution was terrible and probably outsourced to begin with xd) they said that some contacts are going to be worked on and that they have stuff archived some concepts are from 2007 - the games earliest developtment and were clearly abandoned. have you seen the old promo vids? that was an entirely different game. others than that, ye, events would be nice again. what kind of terrible translator did you use though? xd please use [spoiler]giant images[/spoiler] next time.

go manual or nothing

diffusion of bombs seems rather destructive though or do you disassemble it and diffuse the parts of just one

only 11 days early with that title then still was plainly wrong at that point of time and you stated plainly wrong info in your post too (which was visible on the very site you screenshotted - and you decided to crop it off) and hey, probably the next few months will have new "all time lows" just like it always is when something is constantly dropping surprise surprise not saying this is a good development but it has never been an unforeseen/unforeseaable one - and there was little to no reason for it not to happen. as i stated before.

"Its been 2 days" "Customer Support was so better when there was no Little Orbit" "xD"

it is not p2w because there is no p2w. flawless argumentation. here, i'll counter your argument: premium is p2w because there is p2w in apb. there is no dictionary definition of this because this isn't in any official dictionary (prove me wrong). noone even mentioned urban dict. premium is p2w because it would hypothetically give one of two players - that otherwise have the same conditions - a significant edge over the one without premium. take radar jammer or spotter. the cd reduction is a direct upgrade that directly affects gameplay. for the cost of money. hence it is p2w.

you go from "there are no advantages" (besides money and standing) to "people want the advantages for free" very quickly also the classic "i have no arguments so i rely on allegations" p2w shouldn't have a place in apb.

except that with every other activatable mod (except banner) you do less cd on blowtorch? running made even more easy less cd on field supplier? switch weapon immediately to adapt to situations more often without wasting time by running to any machine or wasting a slot on your car less cd on radar jammer? disturb enemy radar twice as often less cd on spotter? get free wallhack twice as often

i really hope gamersfirst is not as tarnished in everyones heads as it is for huge parts of the apb/fe community. i still like apb and hope this ride will continue as a good one, the last few months definitely looked like it.

ye, just kick out the website team etc, hire new people (especially all the experts on conversion from ue 3 to 3.5 (to 4) (especially those familiar with apbs custom code (hint: the former group is not very big either))), once you don't need these anymore, dump them, just hire new ones. this is not how hr etc. works. it's not like there has to be a huge investment made to implement a service like this ofc there are more important things than premium subscriptions
