Poperon

I'm glad that you got unbanned, i really hoped for it. I can't wait to see you around Jericho with your nice outfits and unique sniper, seeing you get banned for such a stupid reason was heartbreaking. I really appreciate the old vets of this game, specially the ones that bring color and life to APB, be it thru nice outfit customizations or thru making nice themes. We've lost a ton of quality in this areas. Anyway, congratulations!!

So, 1 – You keep running in open field to the same area; 2 – You keep running into an enemy with an ALIG, from mid quarter pov: you're either brave or a fool; 3 – You miss a hundred shots at the enemy with the Joker CR-5; 4 – To be honest, by watching the video you didn't seem to be trying to engage in the mission for reals, or that's your playstyle for now. If the last option is the case, i'd suggest to train a little harder.

So W1ll0W, did this main character of yours get unbanned? Please, say YES

I endorse the idea of an evil paintball gun for Criminals. While we have the right to harass them with our almighty Stabbas, they could have the right of having something similar.

G1: You did wrong and got caught, we must take all your limbs from you. Player: Oh crap!! *Little Orbit steps in* LO: Hey guys, we are about to give some of your limbs taken from you, but there's a little drawback to it; we are keeping 1 of your arms. I hope you can understand. We are glad to give you a 2nd chance! Player: HEY, GIVE ME ALL MY LIMBS BACK, I DEMAND IT!!! WHAT IF I HACKED? I MUST GET EVERYTHING BACK, NO MATTER IF YOU'RE GIVING ME A SECOND CHANCE !!1!11! The days following Battle Eye introduction will be certainly of "falsely banned" angels all around.

Applications for volunteer GMs are now open GOD BE WITH US AT THIS VERY MOMENT, PLEASE .

This feature MUST NOT be taken off. This feature exists for a reason, that serves as a countermeasure against Real Cash Sellers. We don't need APB:R to become an AION or Lineage or whatever, with multiple fake cash sellers accounts all over the chat with: \/\/ \/\/ \/\/ . G E T U R D A M N C H E A P C A S H H E R E . C 0 M . R U S We already have more than enough toxicity and non-sense around in-game chats.

Well, well... this actually explains a lot about frame drops. I will give my two cents thats part of the reason behind lag spikes when opening the inventory or when using the field supplier.

That happens if you dont sign out from your account. Thats reasonable, since we cant use that forum anymore

Thats awesome news Lixil. But as many users may have already mentioned it around here, i will do it again: While GMs are needed to be anonymous for obvious reasons in game, any forum volunteer to be a Moderator should/must be visible to others. For example, Poperon (hey me) became a Forum Mod. I would get a *volunteer title* and my name would still be the same to anyone, so it would be easier to respond any action out of the rules. Thats what we had during the start of the old forum, back on 2011. (Voerman era) If GMs decide to help on forums too, they must get a proper forum account, separated from their main account. I know this may seem obvious, or that you may have clearly thought everything thru so no gaps are left behind, but these serve as suggestions for now.

We can only see whats the real deal, once we get our chance to test the game. So we can give our proper feedback to them, instead of making theories or assumptions here. I hope this train leaves the station asap... (Sneak peeks )

I voted for RTW days on this poll, but once i realized i made i mistake it was already done. I vouch for the 3.5 engine look, RTW shaders is in the past, it was an oversaturated thing (bloom exploding in our faces). If 3.5 is oversaturated, isnt it good since some of you want the RTW shaders back? Now im confused...

The right thing honestly would be to have GMs from their own team. Outsiders (aka community members) tend to get greedy of power at some point. I get really intrigued by just thinking about it, how it could go possibly wrong. We already saw the results with Mud Squids on the past forum, imagine in game... We can only hope things go out smooth if this happens.

Aside from any glitches while riding cars on the streets, the other physics glitches are cool. It's like playing old GTA games, when you knew something would go wrong at some point. That car stuck on the fence is the pristine example of it. Pure giggles of hate while in a mission. Same with ragdolls. They are the core part of giggles in this game.

Kempington is the only name to cross my mind to actually fit as a GM.

I thought you were talking about another kind of crouchspamming: Tea Bag. Tea Baggery is totally cool, you know...

Man, that's the kind of thing we need to have around. Contests on making creative stuff are always great, and show how many great artists we have around the community. Although, i see that ghost has gained some pounds throughout the years LOLJK (kappa) (The one featuring Kemp is majestic)

Three magic words: REAL RED HAIR. Because the current "red" color for hairs isn't red enough

Not really BXNNXD bro. People would think twice before creating a thread, maybe adding some more quality, taking time to write things down instead of going full auto on writing senseless things or complaints. Imho, what really drives a forum are the posts instead of massive amounts of threads. Doing this could also let users focus on some important threads that are constantly "eaten" by the massive amounts of "unban me pls" useless ones. But the 5 threads per day was just a suggestion, this could be a lower or greater number. It would be used in case of a more "critical approach" on the matter. That's because some people really exaggerate on things.

Off-topic: There should be a limit per user on creating threads per day. Really, some individuals are senseless, creating so many spam and useless things here on Social. The forum was barely created, and we already have 7 pages, with many repeated threads. We just don't have more pages, because of the work Lixil and their mod team are doing, otherwise we'd have more than 15 pages of which many are of stupid spam threads, or "unban me pls" before the official introduction of Battle Eye. Maybe limit posts to users to 5 only per day, that would be enough. On-topic: Now you're getting into the real forum problems Lixil. Do not let them get into your bones, because that's basically the result of a let down community, from throughout all these years. Many users have developed childish behaviours, and some adults grew toxic around here. That will take time to reeducate them

Thank you Matt and Team for the efforts you guys are making to make APB a great game again! It's incredible how just written information gives such a boost and rises the morale of individuals. Reading the news about upcoming features, watching the Q&A stream, just these gave me such a desire to come back to the game! I can't even imagine when you guys start posting Sneak peeks about the updates on the Game engine, videos etc. People will go mad of so much happiness!! ---- My (obvious) advice would be: letting players know what's going on is totally fine, but please, do not let any "critical" info slip thru the cracks, otherwise DDoS tards will use it to try to counter your countermeasures. ALL PRAISE LITTLE ORBIT

I have mixed feelings about it. While i truly understand the apologies made by him, it doesn't mean he didn't commit a serious offense against the game. The reasonable here would be: we get you and your apologies, but your banned account shouldn't be given back to you. Let's take Ketog as a true example of second chances, he got banned for hacking, then re-rolled on another account to start clean from ground zero. Some here are using the "GamersFirst made mistakes and wrongful bans blah blah" excuse, yeah they sure did a mess with FairFight, and that will need to be reviewed extensively throughout the next months by LO's team; but in this case that was not what happened: he admitted to have been banned due to legit hacking. If he gets unbanned, that would open a precedent to other "legit hackers" to come here, cry a river about getting banned and that "i was a teen" and get a free pass. We get the game was and still is at "a near death state", but a lot of players including myself, didn't get the desire to "oh its dying, let's hack boisss", we just stopped playing and kept following the forums for any new news. That's my opinion, BUT it's good that you regret what you did. I hope LO's support team attend your request well, with fair judgement.

I was one of the winners back then on 2011, being one of the first few to acquire the Radio Backpack before it was released on ARMAS. The awe effect was cool for some days (I remember killing the event elf on waterfront, drifting on one of those streets nearby to Orlenz Moretti's HQ)

I'm all in to remove voip from the game. With Teamspeak, Discord and many others nowadays, voip is an obsolete add-on.

I smell dead brain cells from OP splattered all over this thread. Come on sir, can't you wait some weeks until the BattlEye Update? Jeez! Now, the real deal here is: gogol without a profile pic. Unacceptable!
