    I doubt many of the old staff would want to return to APB after getting burned twice. I owe Jotunblut a lot, though. Still got his name tattooed on my character and that ain't going away!

     

    Probably they won't want to ever return. The only possibility i could think of, is if APB breaks the curse of its long lived bugs and lack of content, and turns out somehow to become a great success.

    Maybe if this happens, and they see the game turned into a major hit that keeps on growing strong, they decide to return and be part of it again.

    Well I of course miss farfletched.

    He kinda left extremely abruptly...like one day we were running the APB Music Creator Contest...and then the next he was gone...like right when he was going to put the winner's song in the in-game building...

    Kinda weird. I never caught word of why he left or if he was fired or what. Does anybody even know??

    Cause like the day after, Tiggs was hired and she said they were dropping the contest cause they had other priorities or something. Engine upgrade something or other I don't even remember now...

     

    Edit:

    He was right in the middle of running this and left before it could be finished and then no one else at G1 would finish it.

     

    (link to the old, infinished 'Music Creator Contest')


    Many devs left the game abruptly, Omocha was one of them. Maybe they got dissatisfied with what was happening, and seeing they were running in circles for years, with the old bad management decisions.

    Maybe some better oportunity showed out of the blue for Farf, he was/is a cool guy as it seems. Or what if he got dissatisfied with the community? We may never know what really happened :classic_unsure:

    farfletched was cool

     

    he (and others from the old dev team) played the game a lot, a trend im happy to see orbit picking back up

     

    I'm seeing all this as positive too! I'm not sure if Matt or Lixil had played the game before they acquired Gamersfirst, but if they didn't, they are now doing it and seeing how much life and desire to live and get better APB has in its guts. They and their staff seem to be really enjoying the game and its mechanics (apart from the roten ones). It's actually a VERY GOOD game, and as many say and know, it has yet one of the best customization systems out there among games. It's just not SO SO SO much better and enhanced, due to the fact the game has stalled for so many years without any further development on avatar customization areas. No new hairs, we got "a limited" customization bar that could certainly have been increased among years if game had its proper development, etc.

    We can only keep faith and hope for now, but as things keep on moving, it seems the right company has acquired the game.

    But is there anyone else who misses Farfletched? And thinks his remix of Love at the Speed of Light is one of the best sounds around APB?
     

    @Ketog : Thanks for the heads up!

     


    If the old login screen wasn't so good and perfect, this song could easily be a main theme for APB imho.

    Posting this here also, maybe @MattScott and @Lixil had no knowledge about it yet. Cheers! 🤗:classic_laugh:

    im in for a riot if they actually kept the mod squad, they are awful. new CM should be accompanied by new mods, to clean the bad image and ways tiggs and her mods had. like i said a while back, a true fresh start.

     

    @Lixil could you be so kind to clarify this pretty please

     

    I'm astonished. gogol actually speaks.

    I thought you were just a purple squid that vaped. broooooo :classic_blink:

    I had my pic posting privilleges revoken permanently by him for posting pic of a baby goat in vat and saying we should clone G1 devs to speed up engine upgrade 😄

    After that I simply triggered him to just completely ban me and finish this once and for all.

     

    After the warning i received from him, i actually had the same outburst. I lost most of the interest i had, bearing in mind that back then i used to take Tiggs words like a sworn oath. I really believed her words, and defended G1. Then i stopped being so blind, said some truth and got finally banned without a blink. But here i am, seeing AN ACTUAL GOOD COMPANY taking over and showing the old staff (which are now located backstage) how its done. By old staff i don't add the Devs like Andro, Aphadon and Majiik, because when something bad happens they usually show and act properly and professionaly. 100 Kudos to them!

    Speaking openly here, since it was "left in the past" (or isn't it?), Mod Squad 20 was a truly "patootie" (to be utterly gentle here).

    He used to lock threads, give warnings and disappear with threads without even giving a proper feedback to anybody. I still remind the day i had to recreate a thread 3 times, and i wasn't naming and shaming anyone, i was just making fun of a fact that a teammate got the briefcase and took it to the opposite spot (enemy spot). It was a clear thread, stating it was about fun, and the thread wasn't even locked. Then, after the 3rd time i had posted the thread, i got a warning from the "lovely" Mud Squid 20, and that still gets me to my nerves today. What an unbelievable "lovely person"...

    And some months before this LO takeover, some Mod openly went out of his Mod account, openly dissed a forum user in one of the most unprofessional ways (without even hiding that he was still a Mod back then), and Tiggs didn't move a feather to punish the Mod. I don't really remember which was the number of the Mod, but IT WAS a Mod. If anyone else reminds the case, please cast a light here!

    Yeah, exactly.

    Just give they abit of the time, we gave to G1 years, if we give 1 month or 2 too isn't a problem for me, i mean.. Is a sure thing that they will let OTW players to try out the new engine, obviously after a closed test done in private instances.

     

    About the thing they gave the chance to everyone for play into the OTW without premium is a beautiful step forward, im sure that they will never put rewards for something you done into the Live Servers.

    They could thank you, sure, thats sure but really i don't think they want to do something that Nite said above > "testing event with rewards for the live game or something", maybe just a Title but not more than that.

     

    Reasonable player testing things on OTW: "Hey, i'll join OTW to test things out and help LO fixing stuff, so i can gain on a long term, with a stable game having additions of new content. That's a reward for me also!" < This player fairly gets a reward based on what Nite said, and he gets a reward in the early and long terms. Success!!

    "What i'm afraid of" player testing things on OTW: "HEY, LEMME TEST THINGS ON OTW SO I CAN GET STUFF FOR MY ACCOUNT" < This player joins OTW, joins Waterfront, drives around for 5 minutes than starts ranting: "WHERES MY STUFF? I WANT MY REWARDS" *sends ticket to support to complain*

    Hello everyone, as I came from Hoplon servers, I have the right to talk about the G1 ARMAS prices. I know there's a lot going on right now like, 1 month since new company arrive, a lot of work to do, a lot of messages to answer, a lot of patches and things to discuss, anyways... But this must be something we should discuss, as we are going to have ARMAS prices changed, so every staff member that will read this, take this post in consideration. Particularly I made this topic not only to compare Hoplon and G1 prices, but to show that sometimes placing your product too high might reduce the consumers. So I will divide this topic in two sections, (1) Comparing Hoplon and G1 and (2) About the current prices.

     

    (1) So what about Hoplon and G1?

    Well, I am from a country which is hard having someone that could spend 50$ in a life-account item. I know R$ is very devalued compared to U$, about 1 U$ to 3,70 R$, but things changed since we lost our brazilian servers.

    You must know that we used to pay a lot cheaper then you guys here in U$ currency. Here's one example:

     

    Let's get Raptor 45 "Hawk".

    If you want to buy it in G1, you'll have to pay 3999G1C without premium. And to have that amount of G1C, you must pay a minimum of U$50,00, doing the maths, that's around R$160,00. Comparing to a real life item for example, a Razer "Deathadder" on US costs around U$50, that should be around R$170,00, but due to taxes, it's something around R$400,00 (Yeah, I know it's way too high). So that makes difficult for us to spend that on a digital item. (Not including rich people that doesn't care for money, I'm saying this because I'm not that sick for a weapon, but I would love to enjoy buying one from time to time).

     

    On the other way, we had fair prices at Hoplon. Today, if you want to buy a month premium it will cost you 999G1C (U$13,00), in Hoplon we could buy a month premium for 999H aswell, but instead of U$13,00 we paid something around U$5,00. it was R$20,00 for the same U$20,00 amount in G1C. (I don't remember the prices very well, but It was something around).

     

    Take the note here: few brazilians are going to buy stuff from ARMAS at it's current state, I guess rest of APB population aren't speding that much also.

     

    (2) What about the current prices?

     

    As I stated above, we got high prices at ARMAS, and few players buying stuff I think (maybe because of the scars left by G1). Little Orbit, if you guys will change ARMAS prices, make something that everyone will be able to buy and enjoy buying new weapons, costumes, cars, etc, every week and month, and not a weapon every 5 months, you will have much more earnings, you can trust me. I would be able to spend U$15 every month to buy a weapon, but I think more carefully now, to not buy ANYTHING because of the high prices.

     

    Those guys that says all the time that this game is pay to win, maybe they are the ones that doesn't have the same opportunity to buy weapons on ARMAS!

     

    My final opinion is: you can keep more people alive into the game, if you have the right price.

     

    Note: I'm saying this, because I really love to collect weapons, even if they don't affect anything in-game, but still, I love to have different things, and I wouldn't mind spending a medium fair amount into this game.

     

    If you agree or not, please, let's debate, leave your comment below! 😃

     

    That's all, thanks for your attention.



    Thank God another brazilian that speaks a decent english. My eyes are bursting so many tears :classic_laugh:

    My levels of hope have been updated. 🤗:classic_love:

    I'm watching how things are going for now, and i'm keeping my game updated.

    I'm still waiting for the content stuff to happen, EU, Armas Repricing or whatever.

    Watching the news here on forums keeps me more entertained than actually playing the game.

    We alredy know this community, true? I know exactly this situation could be difficult but i trust in LO after all, they making progresses so, where is the problem 🙂

    No problem at all my friend, it's because i truly trust that LO is capable of running things and they are showing it.

    But when it comes to rely on our community... oh gosh, every time a little part inside of me dies. :classic_ohmy:

    Sorry to drop by and be a buzz killer, but i really hope not!

    If you were hacked by someone invading your account and selling off your things, that would be alright to get your items back; but giving items back to people that went full blown greedy on deals like "hey, im trading my AAEPD for a FFA Bullshark" and got 100% scammed would certainly flood the support system with lots of dubious tickets.

    I know LO is doing a great job and all, but one thing must be said: They can't hold the entire world on their arms. They must choose wisely what and what not to do.

    Maybe they could capitalize on it with a testing event with rewards for the live game or something

     

    Besides it sounds like a good idea, people would just turn the opportunity into another Refer-a-friend abuse. Claiming that they tested things while they would really not test them.

    Ugh, this is still the biggest piece of bait I've ever taken...


    I agree too. The concept is cool, but there are so many things in the video that ruin or diverge from the game :classic_mellow:

    For example, the acting was pretty bad, the fat cop on its knee crying like a baby was terrible, the bald cop guy doesn't have a badge on the live action, then he appears in game with the badge.

    Now something that diverge between the action trailer and the game, is the girl using a nun outfit. We got no nun outfit in game! What the heck!! :classic_laugh::classic_tongue:

    you want a 10 year old game to be advertised at e3?

     

    Sure, why not? If this game ever gets to a pristine condition, with better (decently updated to 4.0) looking graphics, no critical bugs, enhancement of current mechanics and considerable new content (new maps, reworked UI that wont cause lag, new mechanics, new cars, weapons, modes, etc), it could certainly has its place on E3.

    Blizzard advertises their World of Warcraft, which is already 14 years old and people still enjoy it.

    Not like big companies do (Bethesda, Playstation, etc), but maybe with a stand there, givin attention to people, marketing the game and giving some fancy things to people (flyers with codes) to gather their attention... but the main thing must be there then, which would be: a REALLY polished game, that can't look like it's now, all broken from years of mismanagement and unattention.

    Remember the live action trailer? This could have worked, if the game ALSO worked as it should.

    People already told you, your computer is probably infected with a malware / virus. You should either install a good antivirus to check the health of your operational system, or reinstall it from ground zero.

    Someone's probably monitoring your activities.

    Custom titles started being abused. I will in future make a topic where players can request these.

     

    Limits for reactions are currently 10. This option will not be unlimited - again due to abusing this feature.

     

    I made sure all features to be available for the players. As players start to abuse these, options get limited/removed. I do apologize for this.

     

    Can't you let titles for members with a <X> number of posts?

    I don't wanna see my pretty shiny title go away. It's so simple and yet effective. :classic_unsure:
