Infinito

Yeah, this has been happening since forever. I edited out the names for the name shaming rule; but the oldschool people might remember them from Social District lol

Just waiting for the "APB is shutting down" forum post as next post Mattscott will do. If things were going well, a simple post saying We are still working would be good. The silence and absence of staff just confirms the development/investment stop on the game.

While I've always been supporting LO, hell.. even RP/G1. This is the first time I'm really thinking it's not gonna happen anymore. (Yes, I know some said this years ago :P) Almost nothing of the Roadmap happened. I guess we can assume that they're all waiting for the engine upgrade first, but if LO keeps having the same small amount of developers, and the amount of glitches being fixed is only a few out of thousands every new announcement, I do not see this ever happening. I would love to see what the real plan is now, and how much longer until the team is gonna stop being financed to work on APB.

I care. Which just made your post invalid!

I think you're getting it wrong. I'm not asking why it's taking 6 hours, but I am curious what the technical steps are covering 6 hours of work

Hey there We're not really active atm, but if anyone wants to play sometime, hit us up on discord! https://midgard-inc.net

I would say you'll probably get used to it. I've had a clan mate from South Africa, playing with 300-400ms. Although he was always complaining, his scores were pretty good. When I first started playing APB I had a terrible wifi connection on the attic. The MS went from 100 to 2000 at randoms. Even though it's fucking annoying, It would always be better than not playing at all.

Not sure if someone ever shared some insight on how Maintenance works of APB? What does maintenance mean on APB? Patching all servers, rebooting etc? Optimize databases? As technical person I am curious what makes a maintenance take up to 6 hours.

I think the whole point is the lack of balance. Not the fact if the OP thinks they are dethreating or not.

I would prefer 300 ping over no missions because nobody is online. I'm having a hard enough time leveling up my other character with Financial being the only active mission district. On Citadel.

This. I think with this "fix" you'd probably see 1-2 more active bronze districts from all the new or less skilled players actually having a fair fight instead of constantly facing golds who de-threated. I was watching a bronze streamer before who just started playing, and was actually liking the game. He, and two bronzes got opposed against 2 max rank golds. Somehow they managed to win most of the stages, until the gold players decided to carsurf on a vegas 4x4 with Volcano's. This streamer had a stock ALIG at best and had to do with the slow stock cars in the game. His next mission he faced them again, and they got rolled. Next mission, facing them again. How long do you think he decided to stay on APB?

How accurate is the roadmap with the latest insight and struggles?

I bet you're talking about the Terminator guy who I shall not name due to the forum rules xD

I need this in my life!!

Incorrect. RTW had a queue. Meaning there was code for it. I believe nekrova was also working on a queue. Not sure if that was ever finished. Here's an old screenshot in bad quality

As far as I know there's even code for it implemented as there used to be a queue long ago. I have no clue why this hasn't been implemented even though requested/suggested so many times.

Sure, go ahead! I have no plans to remove it anytime soon

It was mainly an example of how it would work. That's my own website haha! And it's a type of transfer tool for windows that allows file, screenshot and audio clip sharing. Edit: If it makes you happy https://keys.fdrop.in

Nice job! There should be put more love in the music studio. Can't you upload the html file to a (free) webhost? That'll allow you to update it centralized. Example : https://fdrop.in/tmp/apb.html

I'm voting for a source or topic delete

No! You filthy criminal! Justice will be served.

Thanks for your contribution to this topic! Definitely a neater approach than my explanation.

I can't remember any of the said downsides, and I've been here since RTW. I'd love to hear your suggestion for the small population right now!

I used to downvote people who would post bullshoot, just to post bullshoot without any explanation. Stuff like "Just no", "Worst idea ever" or "gitgud" in other people's topics. I'm not going to spend my time replying to people saying: "At least you could try explaining why you don't like it" I'd have 10k forum posts within a month.
