    What the heck Presets can use double red mods why can't we?
    PLZ FIX

    and on the way make tagger reduce damage (ever used RFID rounds irl?)

    one weapon can and that is also rather old
    and currently retired
    so pls no
    (i guess you were kidding, still)

    presets can double up on the colors because they aren’t exploitable

    mods that reduce damage immediately go to the bottom of the barrel in apb, you’d kill off what little use tagger already has
    More realistically. Make tagger reduce total ammo by 20% (i don't actually think tagger is op) It's a placebo knowing exactly where the enemy is makes you fight better.
    seems reasonable,
    would probably impact weapons like the TAS too greatly (and it doesn't benefit that much from tagger already)

    they could also do it more drastic - like 50% reserve reduction, 10% magazine and let it behave like spotter
    but that's very far off.
    (i know this is an unpopular opinion - and not my honest opinion, i think it's fine as it is but i guess mods should never be straight upgrades in this game.)

    did they improve game performance? or they just uncap the frame rate?

    is it possible to go 144fps consistent?

    ofc it is

    just lower particle max a bit - atleast that's it for me
    and you're golden

    Following on from what I said. HVR was also balanced in RTW because certain guns couldn't shoot past their intended range. The problem is this wasn't taken into account when APB changed with reloaded. Back then HVR was 850dmg even with high ttk. But now all guns can fire out at all ranges and easily make you easy pickings for HVR. There's just not enough downsides to the gun at the moment.
     

    Ok then if you say so, put all those things in APB then, whats the problem if skilled players have no problem.

    Way to kill a weapon... i cant believe they will actually do this.
    Who would aprove anything like this? Like seriously.
    i do
    a bit overboard tbf
    but it stops people from qsing and hvr/percing in cqc - maybe a less harsh nerf to that and a slighter dmg curve than the dmr would be nice
    if you believe that requires skill... uh well. it goes in line with other stuff.

    No its not. You dont have any problem killing a nhvr that is slow, but modifying the damage is ridiculous, absolutly.
    This is silver changing gameplay at best.


    This is how i kill a quick switcher: see guys who use nhvr; when facing them and getting hit by their secondary hide to fully recover with ca3; rush them with nade; they die.
    Is not hard at all. There is no way to reduce the nhvr damage.
    arent u silver

    Question regarding the friendlist change.. the friend list is still toon-wide and not server-wide accross all own toons right and accepting it is too right ?

    So if i lets say want to add one clanmate's 4 toons across my 3 toons on one server... we'd have to exchange 12 invite/accept windows now ?
    I hope those can be send when the other one is offline at least, otherwise organizing the logging through toons to get it done would just be ridiculous time intense..

     

    this 100%

    that new weapon.. is it going to be a reward of JMB 21?

    most likely not, they look skinnable in the picture - like other normal armas weapons (they also use the same background so i'd think it's just a normal armas release)
    and
    there are different variants... but we do have the hitchhiker, jerseydevil, bloodymary (with different unique mods) and the luger ones (that have different taggers)
    but ye skins - unless they wanna do the first skinnable legendary (which would be kindaaa nice)
    maybe there's also like 1 legendary and some armas like the raptor etc...

    Already covered this on the old forums. There's other voices like 30 seconds of just screaming
    (damn i love asylum)
    Mission districts has Sangres (payday 2) as the background voices.
    And some voices, are chuckle worthy. 

    Not technically a Easter egg, just a part of the game like the joker ammo voice lines.

    Actual Easter egg? Double b's belly tattoo , The secret desk and computer on one of the rooftops. That spray in one of the mission districts i showed on forums that got ninja patched out then put back in after coywolf came out and Every time they change the description for the snowball launcher those are Easter eggs.

     
    30s screaming? lmao

    (pretty sure apb is older than pd2 btw)

    didn't know about the others, cool

    Gold10 is a goal in itself.
    This is a thing this game lacks, goals (medium & long-term).

    Too bad we don't have any archive of the old forum, I'd post a link to the Leaderboard / Leagues thread.

    I wouldn't mind removing visible threat.
    Might alleviate some of the Pickup group (PUG)/Backup toxicity APB is so prone to.

    EDIT: But before that, you want to sort out Threat Distribution in district by forcing auto-join and dynamic instance switching according to MMR.
    Dethreating / Noob abuse is a greater problem than having no high-level goals.
    It really hurts the player retention.

    a medium term goal definitely is getting r255 on one char or like on one crim one enf. takes multiple hundreds of hours. i'm on 1.1k hours of actual playtime and only just got my second max (though i didn't go straight for that) and i had prem like 95% of the time.

    it does lack long term. (except if you think getting thst jt crown is one... or getting the rare nanos... or grinding weaponroles. all no real fun, especially rare nanos which are just rng)
    however just getting gold 10... the old threat system just promotes exploiting in apbs current way (readying up in empty district with only friends as opp). not my main point. it's just so much of a thing for egomaniacs thaf promotes toxicity. any ranked/comp game is. lol, dota, csgo can be fun but rankeds are mostly hostile. even more hackusations, even more whining about teammates.
    a long term goal is needed but this isn't one. a skilled player would also not need long to achieve it.

    we also have a link. forums-old.gamersfirst.com

    Who or what is  BH ???

    first answer to your questions is the hit boxes are from the 1.0 unreal engine we need an upgrade first to fix this properly

    second answer to your questions is bullets don't fly straight so theres a drop off from the wind changing them so no this is a bad idea to do not all hit and most only graze so no its not weird its how the physics are supposed to be
    i mean they technically still are hits and not just grazes or bullets that fell down

    the issue would be that e.g. smgs would be too good at range then (unless they nerf accuracy more which would also make them less reliable on closer ranges)
    tbf i think it is a bit drastic right now but it helps to maintain some kind of balancd and give each weapon and category it's own niche without doing much harm. it also enforces having fitting primary/secondary setups etc etc.
    bring variety into the game (most of the time)

    so nah, it doesn't seem like thex want to make changes - and in my opinion they shouldn't. in csgo you have a kinda similar system with dropoffs and even they moved to making e.g. smgs more niche.
    ...except that rifles are plainly better than any smg 90% of the time - they have that economy factor that is luckily not part of apb. (i like it but it doesn't fit here.)
    csgo is much more competetive though so seeing them make a move kinda validates it being not too bad of a thing.

    you can do that by hand or using advanced launcher if you really need it

    games should support custom res either way tho
    That's what the user is asking them to add (according to Google Translate) is an official 800x600, as far as I know, the advanced launcher's way of doing it doesn't work but I'm not sure.
    ohhh, fairs.
    it should, i used it to get ultrawide res 3440x1440 - but i guess it might be bad since the HUD doesn't scale (well)?
    i could swear on the netbook i got from my school it only had hd-res (720p) or less even tho... so it shouuuuld work? dunno. might test on pc once i'm home again

    I remember a game where all the op had 25 to 30 kills each, my team I was on top with 7 kills-0 assists and several deaths I think about 15 deaths, the rest of my team were like 0-0- several deaths. I am pretty sure we went against a team of cheaters but can't prove it but since I had kills and my team didn't have a single kill.

    Other games I have had 25 kills 4 assists and 0 deaths, again my team 1 player had 4 kills, the other two had no kills or assists, and a crap ton of deaths. -With that said does that make me a cheater?

    no it does not, it just makes it appear like your team had a bad match.

    One bullet can kill irl so make every bullet letal.

    100 bullets to the leg would only kill you after losing blood for some minutes so make those bullets kill you after 45 mins of just limping around

    if the issue was them just nit loading, you can always just press enter to get to district seleftion without having to wait. this is because of maintenance tho so this won't help as rmthe servers aren't "up"

    But is OTW open at the moment.
    as others already said - no.

     As sayd before, the Auction for the display points need a week to end.
    Wait a bit and i think you get it because its a really high bid...
    The week was over since 3 Days now. Good troll.
    despite you being toxic, let's clarify this - it's 7 days, not a "normal" week - so it doesn't end on sunday.

    What if youre fps is like 20-30 and your game is stuttering while you hold down left click? You saying your gun will still fire at max rof on the oppositions the entire time and not a stagnated rof where once he dips down to 0-10 fps and his game freezes his gun will stop firing?

    Im pretty sure the gun will stop firing or will fire in uncontrollable bursts.
    afaik the client sends button down/ups so no, this is also the reason why you continue running even if your client freezes/crashs. the client doesn't send every shot as its own packet or smth like that - it also wouldn't make sense since the hitreg is also done serversided (hence the issues when the servers are lagging)
    also even then it probably wouldn't only be that much affected by fps but also network performance.

    it is different for semi autos i guess though since... well if you try to shoot during a freeze it wouldn't send all the button down/ups

    sounds like a job for support

    which is not lixil, fyi

    support is not fast you know. i want to use my steam wallet for g1c purchase and i dont want to wait 1 month or more. This is why i used forum for my problem
    this works fine to me:
    https://checkout.gamersfirst.com/credits/amounts/Steam/DE
    try replacing the DE with your own country code if it doesn't work. note that this will only work if you are logged in/logging in to your linked steam account. you can bypass the login by just opening the URL in any game with a working steambrowser but it should also work in firefox etc.
    you can also get there by just selecting any other payment method like PayPal when buying G1C and replacing the PayPal with Steam in the URL. (especially if you don't know your contrycode etc.)
