the gfx are not the same as rtw or early g1, for better and worse - for instance night time looks a lot less realistic than it used to, but the old bloom from rtw was awful idk why anyone wants that back

it was never gone if you've already used all of yours, then it's on you tbh - trials are intended for people interested in making a purchase, not just as free "premium" weapon leases

i thought console didn’t have visible threat levels at all?

maybe if you have fat fingers or something, correct corner peeking is just muscle memory no different from the oscar's rof the same amount of your hitbox is exposed anyway, even in your own example i think i was pretty generous with the hitbox estimation and its still almost more than half so like, tracking? the thing that everyone in apb needs to be decent at almost regardless of playstyle? plus you're more accurate with rs3 and hipfire than ads anyway, so assuming your aim is fine its still more of a bonus to use rs3 i don't even know what to say to this tbh, you shouldn't need zoom for anything you're shooting at with an oscar and the gun has basically no recoil anyway and hipfire corner peeking happens at roughly 1.5x the speed of ads corner peeking, that's faster than a "split second" i have (altho i prefer the carbine over the oscar), we can all get snobby about our years of experience

fair enough idk much about tech stuff, i just figured since this was such a widespread issue that there was more going on than just apb being shit yes i'm aware, but your initial post made it seem like the halloween event shouldnt happen until they fix this, which is basically just the opposite of the current situation

200 hours is about halfway to max rank, you can't really say someone is still new at that point - even then it's not like they're suddenly going to get bodyslammed every match, they just won't be able to abuse new players anymore

idk wouldn't solving something like this require driver support? the apb devs probably can't solve this on their own, which is why they're pushing the engine upgrade so hard edit: also idk why development has to stop for the people who still can play the game just to solve your problem - thats basically just the same situation, only favorable to you instead of someone else

you realize that you can do the same thing while hipfiring and it exposes the exact same amount of your hitbox right? except corner peeking while hipfiring will always be faster than ads with the oscar

no but his rank icon is silver so it’s ok :^)

i assume you're replying to this?

i think its supposed to mean someone who intentionally seeks out every possible advantage in order to win up to and including potentially exploiting, for concrete examples, think someone who carplays with an nfas and percs all match only to run after getting a single kill in the tdm final stage or someone who glitches objectives into unreachable areas or someone who puts consumables over pick up items - usually these players are also not very good, so while their antics are annoying they aren't always effective but over the years in apb (and maybe other games too idk) it feels like tryhard is used as an abbreviation for "you aren't playing the way i want you to and/or you're better than me"

we’ve had server maintenance at the same time on the same day every for almost a decade now, i’d think it’s pretty obvious

yeah it really irritates me that apb has dozens (maybe even hundreds) of ingame brands and instead orbit decided to randomly add this dark tower crap, it feels like something that belongs more in fallen earth than apb to be fair g1 did this too, all the random guns (norsemen, pathfinder, etc) and the two newest cars used completely new brands as well (io and whirlwind iirc) as a lore goon it really makes me salty

yeah cj actually affecting burst fire weapons was broken af

the obeya has surprisingly low max bloom, cj3 is more about making the obeya competent at close ranges but there’s no reason you have to fire at max rof all the time - i’ve had plenty of times where a faster last shot has nabbed me a kill before an enemy could get to cover, land his last shot, etc and ir3 is kind of redundant with the high overdamage and forgiving dropoff i figured a veteran player such as yourself would understand how semi automatic weapons work after 8 years

the ursus is just as viable in most situations it just lacks mod versatility since hs3 is locked in

it’s the same as a carbine just slower, idk how anyone could have issues with that

apb has had tens of thousands of players over the years, and salvick has been around since obt at least - that’s almost 9 years of free money via symbols its not like there’s much to spend apb$ on anyway, idk why this matters

yeah unless someone is really set on using an AR, most people will just use the obeya - it’s insanely good and it’s f2p

you don’t like spawning directly in enemy fire? casual

how do i get off this ride

salvick makes and sells symbols and clothing iirc, that’s basically a free money printing press

if you can’t say it straight why even bother? this isn’t 11th grade language arts, no one’s here to analyze the deep symbolism of your posts

lmao idk about you but i’m willing to wait as long as it takes to get a solution, can’t believe you’re actually advocating for shittier/no support responses just get quick let response time

i think it was the other way around, i’m sure g1 would have loved to keep getting free money from innova and a major reason for innova not wanting to renew the license could have been poor profits, which could have been caused by allowing f2p players too much access to armas items
