lol at least claim creative freedom like all the other weirdos who thinks “triggering the libtards” is a personality

what were you thinking tho

i'd imagine it would be the opposite, back when we had eac the first time it was initially about as perfect as anticheats could get, and then as cheats found bypasses and workarounds there was a trend back towards "normal"

okay

this is one of those situations where everyone gets punished because some people will abuse the function - those players who would use the exit mission button as soon as they lose the first objective, or when they encounter players of equal skill level that they dislike, etc if you want to leave a mission so badly, as you mentioned there is already a way to do that, and the fact that you find restarting so annoying to me indicates that you would be one of the players abusing an exit button

this is much sooner than i expected tbh, i’m cautiously optimistic

there's very little actual information on unit game (the chinese developer), we basically only have confirmation that the ip sale happened and some poorly made websites likely nonexistent - apb is no longer ahead of the tech game, it has poor user numbers, and comes with a massive amount of negative PR no less than two million usd see #3 a company making poor business decisions does it matter? no, also weird question tbh they already did little orbit tried their hardest, but they jumped into the industry way over their heads probably not, my assumption is in the game industry just the fact that a company is selling a released game is likely a red flag - if the game was making money then you wouldn't get rid of it it was an ama not a congressional hearing, no one is getting cornered realistically even if frosi got weirdly aggressive with unit game questions, mattscott talks for a living, an apb player isn't going to "gotcha" him on a zoom call

name it whatever you want, as long as the game is in such a poor state its not going to do well

little orbit already sold it to an obscure chinese “developer” years ago

youtube is for boomers matt should get the apb beta on tiktok

cheaters generally aren't affected by game balance because they have an external advantage - trying to level the playing field by changing stats and game mechanics is treating the symptoms rather than the cause, and nearly always ends up punishing the legitimate players base that's stuck with the changes

wrong

we whine and complain about how fairfight was the best anticheat and little orbit supports cheaters

then we whine and complain about how orbit isn't paying for the best version of eac and supports cheaters

adios amigo

nah

g1 rolled almost everything back to rtw, they didn’t just lengthen ttk so guns were massively unbalanced and there were tons of old bugs and exploits available - obviously no one wanted to play in a district like that, and g1 used that to pretend no one wanted longer ttk

i suspect this is where the difference of opinion comes from i do not consider little orbit my friends or my family no matter how much time and money i spend on apb, they are a business offering a product to customers (me) in order to make money - if i'm satisfied with the product then i pay money, if i'm not satisfied then i do not pay money to one-sidedly pretend the relationship is anything other than business is very foolish imo, but that's up to you

would you keep going to a restaurant that gave you bad food every time if the chef told you he was trying his best?

unit game owns the apb ip and little orbit is licensed to run apb reloaded little orbit owns gamersfirst little orbit can develop and run apb reloaded indefinitely, but they can't make new apb games gamersfirst was a trademark and a web portal, which little orbit purchased from reloaded games (the actual company people are talking about when they say "gamersfirst") see 4 little orbit seems to have made the decision that the gamersfirst brand was more valuable to keep despite the negative pr attached to it

the rest of the text doesn't matter - for many people, only results matter at this point "learning" means nothing when we're five years in and orbit is still making the same mistakes they were making on day 1

because there's not much to show for all the work, is that really so difficult to understand?

it’s today tho?

perhaps not the compliment you think it is, considering dave jones played a not insignificant role in rtw apb self-destructing in the first place

it actually didn’t even have that, i think open conflict would have been better received if there was at least an equal number of bodies on each team
