Well as i said i personally don't mind much for people leaving and coming back for events , we all did that at least once , im fine if you don't play all the time as long as you don't dissapear for 3 months without saying anything . the choice is up to you !

well this is a thing that's not only in PS4 , PC and xbox player also face the same , and that's mostly because of bad matchmaking , sometimes a group on low ranked starters without mods gets matched against high rank people that are fully geared , the matchmaking only takes threat into account (and it doesn't even work right sometimes) That is something that lo has been working and discussing on (district phasing etc , wich is a good idea as we won't see more people waiting toget into 40-40 districts etc...) , the matchmaking is just super unfair , but with such a low population , it's also very hard to find the proper opposition.

Should the yukon be reverted under one condition?
Ketog replied to virginiavirgin's topic in General Discussion Archive
because it was bugged simple as that , not only it had insane firerate compared to armas mounties , but the legendary never stated anything regarding hip fire , also you didn't need to be a genius to hear that the firerate of the gun was just the same as the burst fire . Oh yeah , also was confirmed by devs that it was a bug , it was just common sense. -

why does everyone only use Joker RFP-9?
Ketog replied to foscor77's topic in General Discussion Archive
It's pretty much a pocket obir like everyone says, completely overpowered in my opinion, especially the fang , why ? Not only it actually kills faster than obir, but the fang has an incredible 47 meters range , which is enough to compete with primaries, oh yeah, and just like obir it has a lot of overdamage , three burst of this secondary will deal 1197 damage, enough to kill a kevar 1 user . oh what, you say it's still not overpowered ?, sorry i said the fang is 47 meters right ? , but it's overdamage is high enough to make it a 3 burst to kill at 52 meters, that's more range than a stock NTEC, yep we're talking about a secondary gun . What do you mean , that's not overpowered ?! okay i got more : the minimum damage RFP does when it's out of range is 39 , but remember, you do 3 shot bursts , that means an out or range burst of RFP will do 117 damage, yep ,that's 11.7 % of your health, so an RFP, even at 100 meters, will kill you in only 9 bursts . That also means if you get hit by an HVR (tho HVR's range is 90 meters), an RFP will only need two bursts to kill you, even at 100 meters, meanwhile an NTEC will need +6 shots to do the same, that's an extreme case scenario yes, but that's a simple way to show how high is RFP's minimum damage actually is. compared to other weapons , you can basically QS someone at 90 meters using PSR and RFP , and yes , i did try to do it myself with friends , it's completely achivable . Now if you call that secondary weapon balanced you must be insane . -
Obeya was clearly superior

Should we give out the Autumn Assault skin?
Ketog replied to MattScott's topic in General Discussion Archive
Honestly , i don't care , i didn't get the skin , and i didn't want it THAT badly , pretty much were there for the JT , honestly if i had it i probably would want it to stay exclusive , but in another way it's true that the way to get it was more "luck" than anything else , wich also makes it fair for everyone to get . i hope people get more exclusives , but it needs to be done good. but for now giving this to everyone also seems fair . -
Does players with high ping have an advantage ?
Ketog replied to Player1's topic in General Discussion Archive
No we don't , but there's one thing we miss there , people tend to now know the difference between high ping and packet loss . You're talking about people "ice skating" that is mostly caused by packet loss , wich means an unstable connection , basically means , that your APB client and the server aren't communicating properly , you can have 20ms or even lower , but if you have packet loss , you will still have rollbacks , and many other issues with the game . Here im talking as a 220 MS player and what i can say is having a high ping only affects ME and not others , but i can say that only because i have no packet loss People say "man if i get to [insert ping 5 times higher than usual] ms , i can't game at all how can you play like this ?!" things those people don't understand is that their sudent lag peaks are caused by them having packet loss(unstable connection) , as having packet loss will make your ping go higher (because the server takes longer to respond as data doesn't even get to it). As my internet is very stable, people never ever see me teleporting or having any sort of lag , and no one is aware that im playing with such a high latency , the only thing they see , is that i have a very bad reaction time , basically when im starting to get shot at on my screen , it's something that already happened 220ms ago , wich is aproximatively a third of a kill in APB, also if i shoot that person back, i will see a hitmarker only 220ms after i shoot him, this, in no way can affect me positively . Now let's see it from the point of view from someone that has actual lag (packet loss) at all times , this is a very tricky question to respond to , as lag can affect both players negatively , not only you're teleporting on your enemy's screen , but you are also having a lot of inconsitencies on your side (can't enter a car , can't equip a nade / throw a nade properly , terrible driving). While this sounds horrible , lag can in some cases give you an unfair advantage depending on how the game works , but in apb it CAN give you an advantage but most likely wont , a simple exemple of it would be: on your screen you jump out of a corner and can see the enemy , and start shoot him 5 times but your clien't doesn't suceed at sending that data to the server , meanwhile on the enemy's screen he just doesn't see you , nothing happened yet , until you suddently appear in front of him and shoots 5 times in less than a third of a second taking him by surprise only because of your lag , this is a scenario that happends time to times with people with unstable connections . But as cool as this sounds , this is absolutely not an advantage in most other cases , as it will only had randomness to your gameplay experience for most other things . TLDR : Does a high ping player with a stable connection have an advantage over others , absolutely not? Does a lagging player have an adventage over others ? In rare cases yes , most of the time no. -
it needs another nerf , but a very slight one imo, ntec is too good of an all rounder , i think i needs more maximum bloom so you can't just go full auto in CQC like you can now . but it will stay the same as it is for longer ranges.

WaveLounge applications are currently closed, however our discord is still freely acessible here Wave Lounge is looking for players ! Welcome to Wave Lounge's recruitment thread ! If you've been playing in citadel lately, you might have come across some of our members ! As you can see this thread is named Wave Lounge, but that's because it's the name of our Alliance that was originally containing two clans : Social Wave and Criminal Lounge, Both clans used to be the same concept, but due to some management problems we had to stop criminal lounge. So for now, we're only recruiting for Social Wave Now let's go straight to the point, we are kind of a different clan compared to your typical APB one, and this thread will show you how and why. What are we , why do we even exist ? We are Wave Lounge, originally founded by Ketog and PHM in Citadel, we've both been long time APB players and always loved to make friends in social district, we noticed that while we all knew each other in social, we all never had a "home" to all be in, so PHM and I decided to create those two clans, Social Wave and Criminal Lounge, two clans that are community driven and following the same concepts, with people that you can actually consider as friends, and not just "clanmates" or "people to play with". As all clans we were aware of lacked the feeling of a community, our clan happened to have a lot of success, and today we are Wave Lounge with over 250 members in both clans combined ! We exist just for the sole purpose of bringing the community together! What do we do ? We have a mix of every type of players some are social warriors, some spend all their time in missions, some in fightclub ! We got veterans as well as new players, and we like to do some clan activities, sometimes organized by any of our members ! And if you have an idea, we can absolutely work on it to have some fun, Arranged games? Clan wars? or clan Alliances? we're open to everything! What we expect from YOU ! Now if you want to join us, there are some things we want from our members, you see, being such a clan we want only people that fits with out concept, Respect, Equality, Freedom, Creativity and Dialogue, are our words, if you're known to be a troublemaker, or being insulting towards other people, this clan is probably not for you. But if you think you can change maybe we can still give you a chance, some makes mistakes but still have the will to change, because what they did in the past doesn't reflect what they would do in a better environment ! Oh yeah, you also need English that's good enough to be understood and have a proper conversation with others, bad English causes misunderstandings and i would rather avoid that. These are the only things we ask for, we have no other requirement, who ever you are, whatever your past ,whether you're good or not at the game, you can join ! We care about who you are as a person, not as a player. Now this might sound counter intuitive to what we are, but we don't force any of our members to play, wear anything, or even be active, you can stay or you can leave at any moment, we just want to know why, talk with us ! that's all we need and want, communication ! I want to join , what do i have to do ? If you're interested in joining us you can contact us in game or join our discord to be recruited. - IGN: "Ketog" - IGN: "Ulexos" - IGN: "Zipen" - IGN: "Kristaina" Note that if you join any of our clans, all of your characters are accepted in both clans by default, so you can join them at will. Here is our public discord, member of the clan or not, you can join ! The whole Wave Lounge community wishes you a lovely day!

Hey. Event is over. Now it's time to fix your mess.
Ketog replied to Mitne's topic in General Discussion Archive
so that's what your 2:12 hours of saltmessaging in /d every 20 second ended to. My opinion : Honestly , even tho i am bad at apb and am probably under average skill level , tho im quite a fan of the competitive events , but for the next ones i think they should make use of others skills such as technique , hiding ,or maybe even driving and more , the explosive gungame was pretty good as it gave a chance to people that have technique and knows the game to win but without the need for high aiming skills . I hope little orbit does more competitive events in the future , but i also hope they work more on it , as players said this event feels extremely cheap and quickly thrown together . That pretty much sums up the way i think of it too -
could you not

okay sure , now what do you expect from us.

I don't really use Snipers much , but one thing i can say SBSR series feels like guns that wants to feel , "snappy" or "reactive" , i know coroner and irs are two different weapons , but id' suggest to apply those changes to both of them : Reduce their recoil by 50% as they have a high firerate for snipers and are automatic , while this seems like a minor issue i think having less recoil makes shot placement much easier wich is very important for a sniper , right now SBSR have such a brutal kick that landing those 3 shots requires higher than average recoil management without giving any substantial benefit. Increase their hard damage to 145 Actually all snipers in APB do quite a bit of hard damage but their Anti Vehicle performance is limited by their firerate , wich is why ISSR and DMR series have an advantage , but SBSR imo lacks hard damage , im proposing to rise up it's hard damage to make it able to destroy vehicles much easier while preventing it to kill high tanky vehicles in a single mag . while keeping it under the mighty DMR-AV Reduce their zoom level by 5 Degrees Why 5 ? because i think that weapon has a bit too much zoom for something that plays this way , removing 5 degrees is just enough to have a slightly wider field of view making it a better all rounder . The changes that im proposing , would make SBSR more of an all rounder , but also more convenient weapon to use . For your proposition on the damage change im all in for it , it seems reasonable and gives a reason to use this sniper . The magazine one , if i take into account the changes i proposed , im against it ,as it would make it too strong against vehicles , but if we ignore my suggestion , then yes. as for the weapon's accuracy i wouldn't change anything honestly.

hell no and where even would the servers be.

I'd be great if we had some of LO's input on this topic , clearly the community doesn't feel comfortable with the current state of shotguns .

Yes ? , so what , that's literally the point of the event , the best player wins
