where is the players money coming from if there’s no new content, no new engine, and nothing worth hearing about? do you really think orbit bought an entire company and several IPs just for a quick “smash and grab of players money” off the 300 people left?

it’s just a prank bro

my analogy was pretty flawed i guess, i hate analogies tbh current early unreal 3 engine we're running on was super bare bones, so rtw devs had to custom make a lot of features that are all essentially bloatware - they run poorly, they take up way more resources than necessary, and they don't play well together 2013 unreal 3.5 has most of those custom features as standard code, negating a lot of the issues of the old custom from-scratch code a big fat dude needs a lot more food and space than a normal weight dude - yeah we're back on analogies, mostly because im dumb as a rock when it comes to this stuff and this is how various people have explained it to me over the years

yeah its a real fucking mystery

doesnt really make sense since half the point of the engine is optimization its like comparing a v8 from 1992 (current engine) with a v6 from 2018 (engine upgrade, hopefully) - that 200 hp v8 needs 40 gallons of gas just to start while the 400 hp v6 needs 4, or at least thats what we're hoping for

the threat system is not dynamic and it never has been, please don't spout nonsense - your threat level is your threat level and it only changes based on your calculated performance (and a few other indirect factors) years ago there were a few (2 iirc) patches that manually "reset" global threat level percentages after major changes to the threat system, those are the only times a player's threat could have changed without them playing

noted locking thread for redundancy :^)

just making guesses based on what i see obviously none of us really know, since we don’t work at orbit

is a super king time longer or shorter than a super ace time?

have you tried turning it off and on again

it seems to me that orbit wants to set themselves up as a gamersfirst-ish studio/distributor/publisher - they’ve got a tps , a post apocalyptic rpg, a swords and shield rpg (i think that’s what unsung is at least), and an fps/space-thing (i don’t understand descent very well tbh) given that they’d either have to acquire another game or create one from scratch, i doubt dropping a game (even one with so many problems) is something orbit wants to do at this point

all i’m interested in is performance details, literally just a 10 minute video of the /fps UI would suffice

if that was the case then FE would already be shut down - from what i understand there are some pretty big issues behind the scenes, if orbit didn’t care about FE i doubt they would bother attempting to tackle these issues

this garbage is actually more annoying than the server issues tbh i can barely hear myself think over the sound of you gagging on little orbit banana

the only locked thread discussing maintenance specifically says “on both PC and our Console platforms” if you meant a different locked thread discussing maintenance please feel free to link it, otherwise i’ll just continue to assume you can’t read if you meant the thread about the 12 hour maintenance and subsequent server issues, no shit the majority of communication was between staff and pc players - news flash, 99% of the forum users are pc players maybe use your “influence” on the ps4 playerbase to get them to actually use the forums and that 99% number can change ok remind me again why all the other ps4 players would care what you think of apb tough shit, the pc player base has been waiting almost double that amount of time to see progress and yet here we all are, everyone playing an equally garbage version of apb

please explain how creating the exact same situation you think is happening rn for other systems will solve any problems i think you're overestimating your e-fame my dude source? ah im glad its from totally trustworthy people who totally say so, must be a fact welcome to console development via sony taking a month to approve each individual hotfix, enjoy your stay

this is the apb forums

or just dont play apb with your volume stupid high

active forum users are active shocker

first off, there is no official apb discord secondly, i thought we put the whole “fairfight was actually unreliable” thing to bed months ago

leave it to yood to miss the entire point of my post

have you tried turning it off and on again?

that sounds like an overly complicated fix
