that is apb being more toxic than other pvp games sure maybe there’s less assholes per capita than actually populated titles, but getting slurs shouted at you in valorant doesn’t hold a candle to being literally prevented from playing until you give up and leave the game

no The matchmaking pool is the amount of players available to join a mission. The smaller the pool is, the less likely you are to be matched against equally skilled players. Since you are generally silver at best, you were likely put up against higher threat players - when the system does this, it expects you to gain a certain amount of score for the mission. If you outperform this (e.g. 1500 score instead of 500 score) then it’s likely you will still gain threat even if you end up losing the mission.

this was definitely written by chatgpt what exactly does this mean we’re getting for the 15th anniversary patch?

the man literally said it’s not strictly limited to turbo nerds even if it was, a leaderboard with fight club challenges might actually get some sweaty players to switch off ntec/scout sometimes and leaderboards are probably just dusty rtw code that matt had to spend a few hours vibe coding to update - minimal effort for large(ish) return is a good thing

no shit bro? that’s crazy

half the people in this thread have specifically said the .45 is too strong in cqc guess which gun has the exact same performance in cqc as the .45 i give it a week before the complainers realize they’re still getting outplayed by the same players except with a fr0g instead, and the nerf campaign begins again

incompetence is easily mistaken for malice little orbit disabled the anticheat, and then announced that the anticheat was disabled to everyone worse, they’ve done this before, so they should have plenty of data on how damaging this exact scenario is, and yet they did it anyway a speedhacker should be the easiest cheat to detect and ban even without an anticheat, and yet they frequently cheat for hours or days at a time without intervention when the company keeps repeating mistakes that they’ve already made is it any wonder that some people begin to think it’s intentional?

news flash - every gun is broken with an aimbot, that’s why it’s cheating tanking a gun because of cheaters is the absolute dumbest way to go about balancing

you’ve never hit 85% percent accuracy in your entire apb history bro, just say you want the gun dumpstered because it makes you mad anyone whining for a ttk nerf without any buffs in exchange just straight up doesn’t understand balance

rtw was a very large, very public failures and gamersfirst really miscalculated the brand recognition (and so did little orbit) combined with poor advertising and slow, monetization focused development the game has been relegated to “shitty gta clone with cheaters” by just about every gamer i’ve ever met

if you increase the .45 ttk then it’s just a worse fbw with less bullets the only acceptable .45 nerf is longer reload speed to punish mag dumping

unlikely as a solo player but not crazy with a good premade, didn’t melo hit a 100 mission streak as a 2man?

bro wrote apb fan fiction

reflex sight does not affect shotgun accuracy

>“the community is so fucking toxic” >proceeds to be toxic lmao

a refund for what bro, exclusivity was never part of the deal if you feel that strongly about it then man up and do a chargeback

if you don’t trust that the devs are banning cheaters, why would you trust that the devs would post legitimate ban statistics?

That's 8 bucks you're never getting back

anyone still playing needs a mandatory detox anyway

you can’t actually stop stretched res players, because you can’t stop players from changing their monitors resolution its the custom crosshair “debate” all over again

bro you forgot to switch accounts

nothing has changed about grenade use since low yields were nerfed

you should sue

something has to be done, the gun is inferior to the scout in all actual gameplay scenarios a 4stk gun with a passable jumpshooting ability already exists, increasing the enchantress's stk (and lowering ttk) isnt going to suddenly break the game

i’d rather not add even more guns to the problematic gambling system just buff them instead, altho the oblivion probably shouldn’t be touched
