Sum up since LO got APB : We got a new jokerbox with a gun called showstopper in it , basically a secondary shotgun There is a whole new gm team New forums New website Armas rework (tho still a bad shop to my eyes) Armas prices reduced by 50% and tweaked. New Battleye anticheat. All cheaters unbanned giving them a second chance. Trading system New support ticket system New epidemic event New SPCT team Gun balances (that literally no one asked for, and was very badly executed) the redhill ARG. (one of the coolest things that happened imo) New mode called APB RIOT teased Active ingame gm's. Actual engine upgrade work, and a code revision to replace Reloaded Productions's junky code. To my eyes, they did A LOT already, really a huge amount of work, while most of it isn't content for the game, it's a great baseline to start modernizing apb which is what it lacked for years and years. And the best part about this is, We didn't get any false promises, with reloaded productions, we got many let downs, too much of them, meanwhile with LittleOrbit, all the things they announced, they delivered it. Oh yeah communication, we all love this, while the communication is not perfect still, we got people from the devteam actually looking at the forums now, where all veteran players are, we know where there are issues, and they listen to us, in return we can also give them trust and see what they can do to improve. I hope this year is the year where APB truely gets worked on, on issues that have been there for almost a decade now and discussed countless times without any real answer... driving lag, weapon balance, optimization, matchmaking, threat, servers, population, player movement, game mechanics and of course, content. while apb terribly needs content, it also needs huge amounts of polish, that game truly feels old as soon as you touch it, and you KNOW that it's not a recent game when you get your hands on it. Honestly, props to LO for doing what they do, i hope they don't let us down, and keep doing as good as they did for the things to come !

Uhm, we're friday in EU right now, is the premium comming at friday NA time ?

Did you realize that you will get 2 weeks of premium as a compensation ? Did you realize LO reduced armas prices by 50% ? Did you realize that the g1c price got reduced last year ? Did you realize that LO is planning on making premium cheaper when RIOT comes ? Alright, it's okay to be frustrated, but sometimes you also have to look around you, because right now you're being unthankful to my eyes.

this is probably the worst list i've ever seen,ither than memeing i don't see any pattern or sense in your list. Please @Kempington show us the real deal ! Kemp's tier list was made out with actual player advice and data. (also if you think nssw and fbw are bad guns, maybe you need to play a bit more of APB )

Norsemen series ? Well i voted a complete rework. Honestly these guns had the meme status since they came out : and the featured playermade launch trailer that came with it basically showed how bad it is : On that video above, you can see how outrageously long the time to kill is, (don't get me wrong the statistical TTK is fine, but the actual average time to kill is much higher due to the higher number of shots needed to kill) Not only that but Norsemens came in with those weird magical mods, they restrict modding capabilities, they don't make any sense not fit with apb, who had the idea that introducing magical mods in apb was a smart idea ?. Oh and the odin, that gun is specific to a pack, and that pack, oh man, it's not cheap. the funny thing is those guns weren't popular since their launch because they were more expensive, and bad. Now to the more statistical side of things : Norseman doesn't fullfill any specific role well : It's not a great SMG due to it's high number of shots to kill, even if ttk is higher than average, that's not the main problem, the number of shots is, we all know that high STK weapons aren't popular, look at ACES Rifle, ACES Smg, Yukon, NFA-9, and there's a few more that i probably missed, all of those aren't popular because they feel very inconsistant . What's the point of using a CQC gun if it can't take care of someone fast and efficently. It's not even a good corner popping gun either, because even if you hit your enemies first, the gun is so weak that they can easly turn around, react fast enough to still kill your first . It's not good at being a longer range SMG either, it had horrible recoil and a bad spread which prevents you to do that, and for some reason Norseman has 32 meters range ... Any other SMG's is better at taking care of people more accurately while being faster, more consistent, free, have more modding capabilities, and actually makes you a good team supporter, and not just a weight slowing you down. Those guns have an awesome model, but that's all the good they have to my eyes, complete rework needed .

And the day is comming ! sing with me guys !

hey guys, what's 6 + 6 + 3 + 3 ?

i think LO was forced to change server due to the RP server lease running out

thank you at least it makes more sense for the next time : Both timezones are used for that region , PDT is the time you currently use wich is utc -7 , in winter you guys switch to PST, which is utc -8 PT reffers to the current timezone used by your region which is PDT at this moment. your google search basically gave you PT time because PST time is currently not used (as your region timezone is PDT at this moment) winter time is a pain for everyone but it's there, random info here but EU also does this but they will finally stop having a winter hour so the timezone never changes :^)

lixil , PT is the same time as PST , and google just gives you the pst time even if you type pdt both timezones are used for that us region , PDT is the time you currently use wich is utc -7 , in winter you guys switch to PST, which is utc -8 PT reffers to the current timezone used by your region which is PDT https://time.is/PST https://time.is/PDT

Yo lixil come on, you literally contradicted yourself and proven me right

Hey @Lixil you're on the wrong timezones for the countdown, you used PDT time PDT time and PST times aren't the same thing , los angeles time is PDT which is UTC-7 and PST time is UTC-8 You said the maintenance ends at 9 AM PST which is in 3 hours. pls fix. (also P L E A S E, use UTC time so everyone can just add their timezone ammount to the time and they know when it is, utc is universal, having non universal time is only confusing)

uhm. maybe... probably not, don't make me feel sad ok.

will i finally have less than 230 MS ?! (will probably stay in citadel because i got all my progress there tho.)

absolutely random bump from me, sorry, i had to martinz. i want this to happen so bad, that name basically represent years and years of mismanagement Honestly; did any of you seen the name "gamersfirst" being brought up to say something genuinely positive in the past years ?

of course the server will stay the same if you never work on them like RP did

the post above me is true also, yeah im wondering when this is going to happen, matt accounced the merge and how it will go, i hope russians can enjoy RIOT with us on EU .

just pay looooooooooooool

i got way too much :^) so am i, and i've got many questions regarding settings , and how will the game change with all those libraries updated...

Since the first time engine upgrade got announced, many players had questions for it: The main one that we see lately is if we can get screenshots, while you guys don't want to share that for now, some players have much more questions that could probably be answered now. Would it be too much to ask for a thread with engine upgrade questions where developpers (androvald etc..), could respond to in their free time if they want to ? I've got many technical questions about the engine upgrade (not content related), and im sure many people do.

LO : We gonna keep the apb servers online ! APB servers : **crashes** LO : We gonna delete the old forums in a month ! Old forums : Stays for 11 months. Me :

yeah old forums seems to not work

They aren't storying anything, those people just showcase what they have to sell, all things that are sold for the maximum integer price, are things where the seller is just waiting to get an offer from someone.
