bunch of these guys are trainees up to rank 100 you can't use that bind to snap fire 180 unless I'm missing something

A lot of this stuff is still relevant

and that's supposed to prove the NFAS is borked? You know an OCA would've killed you faster at 15m, right? QUICK MAFFS : 4 shots at 10m. 0.87 ttk. Correction, even an NTEC, STAR or Joker SR15 would've killed you faster I'm not even gonna bother commenting on needing nearly a full magazine 15m out

Believe you need either rank 65 or 80 iirc to equip certain mods at all. Rank 195 is required for the end-game unlocks (blowtorch, mobility sling) After that it's all fair game. ARMAS presets have special variants of mods with a rank requirement of 0 iirc OP, ignore that guy

Sums up the past few years nicely

Since this subforum is where most threads die, I'm gonna bump it with some more good stuff and wave y'all goodbye. See you next thread!

good thing max range in apb is 100m

Thank you - for this specific project I actually found references of the scope being attached to the venting ribs themselves, as for number 1 that's something I'll absolutely keep in mind for the future

Has to be either/or . I'm tired otherwise I'd take you up on that.

ironically it was harder, since I had to fit a lot of detail into even more limited UV space, all while trying to make such spike-y edges look round-- I made the scope all on my own but I reckon the pistol was indeed made by them. Whoops!

Can you imagine that happening? I haven't painted the skin RGB mask for the scope yet... wouldn't take long to wing it, but I have no access to what would let me manipulate the end-results you'd see ingame

I always thought the gun was honestly kinda lame, so I found out a lot of the texture is unused and added a scope on top of it. Yay!

UE3 isn't bad, but it has its limitations when you are working from one of the earliest 2008 betas

I've been trying to figure this out. I'm not sure there's any actual differences in rewards on consoles, though joker box / premium gear does seem more prominent

RSA and ACT need a bit more overdamage so that CA3 doesn't mess with them so much A slight accuracy buff / crouching boost (since you want sniper/long range weapons to have low mobility) wouldn't be a bad idea either

why do people tend to forget this game has a fuckton of "moving parts" so to speak? just saying "it broke" isn't going to help much, there's a reason why programmers need any possible hint / reproduction step

Six years late to the party, bud Will the title be account bound?

The character already have some basic facial rigging IIRC - it's why you get monstrosities when you use emotes such as /celebrate

Title, Right now it's the only FANATIC weapon missing from the Joker Store. Would be nice to be able to try it! Someone brought this up before, maybe add it in a hotfix during the christmas event?

Seeing as you somehow missed the point and survived a forum ban :

I'm guessing your twitch was somewhat popular?

40m drop off range, great accuracy, 3 burst kill with very high damage per bullet and a TTK that rivals the FBW's the RFP Fang on ARMAS is even more grating since it has IR3 - which brings its range up to 47m!

Matt's response prompted me to write up the origin and all the history behind the Butcher skin It's a picture & video heavy post. Also lots of badly written words by yours truly. I hope you enjoy! https://forums.gamersfirst.com/topic/7001-media-heavy-apb-history-101-the-butcher-skin/

CHAPTER 5 : Wrapping things up. Dear APB Forums... "I created the B@st4rd today." "I wanted to create something subtle and stylish and undeniably cool. Something that wouldn't stand out too much. I wanted to do that..." "But then I thought "f**k it, where's the fun ?" So I created this obnoxious piece of sh*t..." Stylish, as always. "That's right. The one permanent OSMAW in the game looks like it fell out of a clown's bum-hole. Hopefully we should be able to get it to play some stupid music and explode confetti, too. But for now, this is it." The end draws near. The forum dwellers are anxious. Fingers trembling. Sweat pouring down foreheads into keyboards. It's happening. This will soon be over. "The gods of Luck have heard your pitiful prayers, they have sifted, twisted,deliberated and mastur... ...never mind. Anyway, "The Hat" has chosen. " "Picked by Monte, witnessed by FarFletched and Revoemag -- although he was playing with his belly button at the time and not really paying attention. So without further ado.. the poor unfortunate to win this shocking eye-sore of an item is: [Nitronik's note : pretty sure most of us know, not going to put their name out there because I am nice after all] " The original image showcasing the end result has been lost. Once more, I plead the winner to throw me a bone, give us a chance to admire the ultimate work of art crafted by the mastermind himself. With this, our little journey down memory lane ends. Nearly six years and a half ago. Time sure flies! Naturally, squabbles, fights and anger followed. Some people just can't stand losing, or not winning. But this is not the point. The point is - this skin has some history behind it, and given how peculiar it is, I felt like sharing it with all the newcomers to the game, be it players or developers Thank you for reading this giant steaming dump which I've hastily put together before bedtime. Enjoy some APB history, and until next time... heavy barrel should reduce shotgun spread

CHAPTER 4 : Everyone has a good day The forum dwellers could not risk seeing all of their efforts be in vain. Criminals and enforcers set their differences aside. Timezones were no matter of importance, as the players of Joker, Colby, Obeya, Patriot and Han all worked tirelessly around the globe to sate the developer's thirst for destruction, silliness, and just seeing how far he could push it. Sadly, many of the videos were lost to time. Here is an account from yours truly of the EU1 suicide wave : And here is a video from Colby NA Best : The sacrifice was well received. " A sacrifice was demanded in order to: Keep me from destroying the competition on an evil whim. Create the addition of an exclusive prize element, which is up for grabs to those who appear on the list. " A raffle was announced shortly after. Only one person would be... the chosen one. Only they would behold the glorious sight of "THE B@ST4RD" - the only permanent OSMAW NFCP3 in the game. https://db.apbvault.net/items/Weapon_Explosive_OSMAW_Bastard [Nitronik's note : Winner, you know who you are. Can we arrange something to get a couple screenshots directly from the source? thank you ]
