    More or less, I agree with most of the things said here - except for a couple of points.

     

    I have to disagree. A better option is to fix the existing threat system; redistribute the existing ranks among players. Some will fall down to silver, some will climb the ranks from bronze, some will feel upset about their threat level changing - this is inevitable, but necessary.

     

    We've been there a couple of times and it's never been a good idea - at least not if the proposed vehicles were to be player-owned vehicles (as in, replacements for the existing cars like the Calabria etc.). Maybe (and this is a big maybe) they could be experimented with as deployables, though I'm unsure about how they would operate then. Each player should only be allowed to have a car as their player-owned vehicle, as motorbikes or skateboards or anything of that sort would make them be a disadvantage to the team. Compare a motorcycle's cargo capacity of 0 to that of a car, which can go as high as 25, and you have a clear answer as to what will be the most used and the most efficient option available.

     

    I, uh... I get that you said these ideas might be a bit crazy, but this is a tiny bit too much. I personally appreciate fellow enthusiasts of mapmaking, but APB simply would not benefit from such things. APB does not operate on a lobby system - we connect to pre-established instances instead of creating our own instances whenever we want. Similarly, letting players host their own sessions with their own rules and mechanics would open a gateway for money/standing grinding.

     

    This is a bit of a blanket statement. What exactly do you think remains unbalanced in APB? Your thread would benefit from pointing to exact things you think would need changing.

    Other than the things I mentioned above, I'd say that we do need some new things to happen after the Engine Upgrade becomes fully released - and some of these things are mentioned in this thread.

    Skateboards could be and out of mission veichle! Custom lobbies would of course be money and rankless , with the weapon balance the topic is more complex , but i feel like in the game most weapons remain unused, people always complain about guns that they don't use and feel as a threat to their mains , like for example NHVR , it has nerfed like hell and without even reason , since now looks like bullets for some magical effect lose dmg if you hip fire , but imho what people don't really want to say is that NTEC is and has been the most used ,op weapon FOOOOR a long time,they only real counter has only been hvr and that's why most people complain about it , since NTEC can easily outmatch even an OCA in close quarters since it kills simply faster, and since the range is so short is not even a problem the loss of accuracy.

    That said , many weapons remain unused, i would really buff a lot of them , even if it may seem ridiculous , but also make some way more precise (since ttk is slow) wouldn't harm .

    Hello guys, been playing apb since a long time and i will always love it but i've always felt it lacked of content ( except for fanmade stuff). Since it's going to be ported to a new engine and Little Orbit wants to relaunch it to the public and i suggest some of the following crazy and idealistic ideas: feel free to comment and discuss.

     

    Simple ones :

    -Queue system for joining districts.

    -Clan versus Clan mode and Ranking System

    -Open districts for when the population is low.

    -Diamond or Platinum rank

    -Some new missions types

    -Some new hair types

    -Make all weapons balanced (Too many weps remain outside the box still and counting how much variety there is , is a shame)

    Big Ones : 

    -New District (absolutely must)

    -New type of veichle such as skateboards or bycicles.

    -Forge mode (Like Halo one) where one can create his custom map and mission types , allowing players to make all sorts of maps from racing to zombie matches.

    In proposing this last one , of course i also try to suggest some private or public (depending on host choice) custom lobby thing. (Forge and map editor would really game changer)

     

    I know they sound like crazy , but if you take at other games, it sounds doable , i would also suggest sometype of crowdfounding if there really is interest in doing this stuff.

    What do you say ? Do you also have also thought of stuff like this ? if yes of what sorts?

     

     

    Ps i underlined what i believe it has to happen yes or yes.

    Hello , first off i really want to say that i'm glad that someone finally saw the potential of APB and started the mission to resurrect it. I really hope this goes well , but i know it will be hard work. I understand the complexity of the game's code and the effort needed to take it out of the dust and make it a real competitive game in the market. Lately i've been playing Fortnite ,not cause i really enjoy it that much (even tho after many hours i started to get in its mood) but mostly beacause of the crossplatform feature which permitted to all my real life friends ,which have some ps4 or xbox, to play with me from the PC rather than playing alone or having to meet new people online. I really think that something that could be very helpful for this game would be the same : maybe not completly crossplatform but maybe allowing some servers to be so , it could exponancially increase the playerbase. What do you think? 

    I know most of apb community could hate it , but if it's well done i dont think people would mind if there's a crossplatform server.
