Had this twice today. Definity an issue that needs to be resolved for "balance / Fairness" Event detail : Option for backup / Support is available to us. when we have requested it,, the OP team gets backup/support (1 or 2 players) , but we just got a "pending" message, and no backup / support for the entire match. I would understand if this was a way of queuing players to join, But this completely through the balance even further in the OP teams way. the server was near cap for both sides. so players if "ready" was not an issue. Il try to explain how this effected us . So if we say the team balance was 60/40 (60 for the criminals being the skill/experience, weapons, number of players etc) in the first case related to the screen shot, the OP team was 2 players out ranking and advanced guns, then my team was 40, has the reason for option to call backup/support, my self a 255 but my random team mate was a low 30 rank, but in this case we got "pending" and the OP got another 150+ Rank player.. this match ended with my low rank team mate sideling, and I was trying to fight 3 skilled players on my own.

Yeh Definity something weird going on, not sure about the DDOS.. unless its the other person with a poor connect.. was on today and a few times up against mixed bag of ranks and most of them I'm draining nano / ATAC / CR5 into them, some points both CR5 & Nano and just wating them eat it up.. but within seconds I'm dead to 3 shots of ntec or start556. in one instance both me and the op had the same character mods on with CA3 .. but ay .. is what it is. just having to readjust to now many bullets its taking to not stop short lol.

More back end issue than my client side. If any forum mod can escalate Has the backend character index been modified? I jumped in to check the updates progress (been awhile..) But I seriously feel like my account characters which are legacy alpha/beta (2010) have seriously reduced HP / Stats. they are dying so easily even with mods on, Kev2/3 or CA3 . to be fair I cant tell if the character mods were even doing anything.. so either an issue with characters or mods stacking. and I was just getting slaughtered within seconds. 2 to 3 shots of a CR5, Ntec, or Star. on a corners edge I was being slaughtered before I could move back behind the edge.. yet im seeing other players with no mods, lower or equal character mods just soaking up the bullets living longer? ... one person flicking the Oscar was doing me with 2/3 shots. yet others on my team could take 4 or 5.. now. I have today come across some players who were clearly snapping between targets and were perfect shots from cover etc a shame this game is still plagued with the crap. . but on some of the other players who were missing a few hits, were still destroying me when landing 2 or 3 hits with assault rifles , No secondary assists on me either.. So I am thinking its my Account Characters . I am not as quick/good as I used to be put still put up a good fight... but I was landing easy 6 out of 8/9 shots with a Cr5 + R3 and still wasn't killing them.. the worst (final moment) was putting 15 to 20 bullets of a cr5 and a clip of nano close range into a player and they walked though it killing me and then someone else.. Server wasn't lagging it was a decent 23ms (decent for apb)

haha Hot Calls, Explosive contacts, Doomed drop call, Deadly missed call.

Hey @Tiawanna I had some issues with the game running on ssd a long time ago. but this was rectified. So I can confirm that the game does work on Sata3 SSD's and M.2's but it might be a compatibility issue with m.2 storage devices deepening variables. Iv not heard of this issue with APB though. A game or be it launcher shouldn't and can not remove a storage device with out the OS knowing about it. that said i cant view your images. reupload them on another service. I could list a bunch of possible theories to why an m.2 would be dropped by a system, but they are just theories,. for an m.2 to require being physically removed from a system is extreme.. I would defiantly question how it is installed with the bios, how the OS environment sees the M.2, M.2 are designed to be a Single installation item, (installed and not removed) (not a removable storage device) also so you know .. This is the nature of forums, people will just view the thread, if they have nothing to add then they wont. unless you want to view a ton of useless comments. Unfortunately APB isn't as active nor have the support team it used to. Normal Tech support we would request the following . Note that the first part you have already done. Brief Explanation of your issue: Do you think your issue is hardware / Software / Both related? provide some basic hardware details and include product names/model numbers where possible. Processor : motherboard : Memory type & amount : Graphics Card: Game installation storage device : Is the Storage device also the OS drive : Any Hardware adapters or devices within your Build we should know about (risers, raid cards, PCIx to m.2 Carrier cards. etc) : OS Type & Version : Did you download the game files direct through Gamersfirst Launcher or 3rd party : have you attempted running the vanilla launcher to repair/validate files : Have you checked your AV/AM for file/firewall detections/blocks : This next part is just to clarify some details, it does not affect your account. Is your game Vanilla or Modded (running ADVL) : Do you run the game via the standalone launcher or Steam :

New video is up. A longer one. But with time stamps if you want to skip to the action. As always if you enjoy the video Hit like button on the video which helps me out. 🫡

HEY! Been a Minute. but thought I'd stop by share these two screens of the next APBR video coming soon. Those DAMN Telephone Boxes Until then enjoy the Halloween Event !

Its been a minute.. but I was recently in convo on Reddit discussing the games state.. and thought Heck il jump in and have a few games.. proof of the pudding as they say As always peeps. If you love APB Reloaded game.. you enjoy seeing the content .. hit the like button on the video.. it helps me lots but also helps keep APBR in the spot light on YT., Also comment your thoughts of the update on the video to Im interested what you think of the new car.. ? Should I do more APB videos?

Translation to ( It could be wrong) "Good day, many players were banned, including me for error 10008. Some for the software from the Razer keyboard, some for the img program. When will it be unbanned? Support rejects all tickets. EAC support doesn't work at all. What to do??????? " You need to submit a ticket to support, state your issue and chances of it being any time soon? I cant imagen it will be. but you never know. not sure what you mean by "img Program" unless you mean Razor "Synapse" software which is detected for its built in Macro crap. additionally if you've used "advanced launcher" (of which by default it was made safe to use with apb.) if you tweaked the ADVL package out of its safe boundaries then you could be flagged. additionally you can be banned for being using banned for a bunch of stuff against the rules. banned software/ being toxic, abusive , hate speech etc .

@PingOVER9000 Hey bud. I appreciate the long typed out reply. And its great to see you have such passionate knowledge about the game. 8+ years ago I would also be to the same level of checking the gun stats and updates etc. these days many many hours in the game all these years later . I just simply jump in run around or drive. Chill and jump in to some random games. Why it's called "Casual Gameplay". I don't have the drive for being hardcore in this game anymore or at this current time at least. If I get mowed down by a team in a mission then that's what it is. I'm sure if I tried I could. If the game got a serious update which was game changing (engine) then I might come back to it with the matched passion and hardcore mindset I used to have back in the day. When I was pumping out videos for APB daily being competitive. 🫡

So what I'm about to say is not aimed at you directly. But as a whole its reflective of many people. Don't take it personally. To be fair it's not BE or EAC fault. People have become to ignorant (I say this politely) to the fact that "PC's / Computers" are all different. Be it house to house, and even country. They make a game or application to work to a set standard. Os version and hardware. Which is why they publish a "required minimum spec" to play a game, even at this spec there is "**" due to the minimum spec that the game was tested too. . It would be impossible for a games house (Devs) to test a game to every single possible variant of hardware and then again with every variant of os with updates and then all over again with every variant of antivirus and again with every.. . You see we're that's going.. it would be millions of variants to test. This is were if you as a person that doesn't want to bother with trouble shooting fixing etc to your own pc then get a console. That really is the simple answer. By all accounts any game launched on console should work on the console 100% with out failure and thus if it doesn't a refund should be awarded as its faulty. With "pc" this isn't so as you are knowing buying or signing up to a game what is not guaranteed to work for your sole "pc". Pc gaming community is and has always been about: knowing, understanding or learning the computer you built or bought and trouble shooting to correct or fix an issue. Educating your self and getting a sense of pride/achievement. Some people don't want to which is totally fine. Doesn't make it the companies fault. To many people now expect something to work or for someone else to find/make the fix and expect it to be over night. I would 90% of the APB players have no issues relation to what you do. So that says LO BE or EAC has no issues.

Care to expand your message, include in brief your game settings IE res & quality etc. Also included your computers hardware brand+part name . With out that info we can only assume your playing on a potato and that's why some of the responses you get are let's say.. creative.

"Kicked from server: anti cheat: corrupt or invalid backend message". I Imagen this is what you might see. Normally caused by a few basic things. Any AV / AMW / ISp , monitoring firewalls etc. some have active protection that can block or restrict eac from working properly. Note that working properly includes detection of and access to the game. Check that you have the correct rule set for eac and apb with in any firewall or protection software including os basic if you choose to use it. Also , eac do have a tutorial on how to clear the eac cache / database and when you load the game it will reload the database. Just be aware that sometimes when doing this may have the effect of being trade locked in game for the basic time.

So APB Reloaded is starting to see new players. be it from consoles merging across or just new people being interested. So I figured, why not jump in and just have a chill session anything goes and if its half decent il make a simple gameplay of it. So this is a One hour gameplay video with some basic edits and colour grading sauce. Not an excuse just fact.. I have lost/forgotten the skill sets to play this game so I do get a whooping but it's still fun. As always if you've got a half decent or good connection watch it in high quality. Video is 1440 (2k) 60fps 10b colour. Hit the like if you enjoy and don't forget to subscribe to get notifications for future content. 🫡

Ok well software not responding is better then just freezing and closing.. and more game uptime is a win. there is oddities with the game that unfortunately just cant be answered,. like once I found the game requires a Netframework that isn't available at the time to w10 users in the far east, as soon as it detects the installation region it wont install. thus making the game unstable. haha.. So yeh you are in a better position now. I would say if its entering a "non responsive state" over 2-3 hours of gaming, this could be the "memory leak",. which can ... still happen.. (called memory leak , but its not want it sounds like, your system or game isnt actually leaking memory .) Definitions = Memory leaks are a class of bugs where the application fails to release memory when no longer needed. Over time, memory leaks affect the performance of both the particular application as well as the operating system. A large leak might result in unacceptable response times due to excessive paging. you can if you havnt already try adjusting your page file. an old tactic back in the day but not really used on modern w10/11 os with modern hardware . But if you do it, you can always revert it . just make a note of what size it is before changing it. Windows 11 you can search your start bar " Advanced system settings" go to tab "advanced" option 1 "performance > Settings " opens a new window - Second tab "advanced" option 2 "Virtual Memory" rule of thumb is to adjust in small amounts.,. its equal to just under 9/10% of your total system memory. like i have 32gb so my page is 3075. but really if say you have 1025 then 2050 would be a big jump in paging. do not think that going beyond in masses will be a gain. it can seriously have a negative effect. Note the "unacceptable response times due to excessive paging" the logic behind adding more paging space, is that if your system can handle a little more paging space it might add a little more gaming time. Might being the key word. older w7 /10 i think you can just search "Paging file size" to find it.
