everything should have options for account bound and character bound, hopefully this is something that happens in one of the armas overhaul phases

i once said ggez even tho i lost "are u that idiot from the forums?" shoutout to the themers of apb -
agreed, altho now that apb's under new ownership it looks like things are starting to move forward remains to be seen whether its too late or not
-
not all armas weapons are reskins but what i meant was that there will always be weapon balance threads, because there will always be a different opinion on weapon balance saying that theres less cheaters than someone thinks isnt the same as saying theres no cheaters, of course if someone thinks beyond a doubt that theres x amount of cheaters then any reason/excuse just sounds like a cover for said cheaters, not much to be done about that
-
weapon balancing is ongoing fairly subjective im not sure how anyone can argue that weapon balancing can be "not true" ive never seen someone claim there were no cheaters in apb, unless they were being sarcastic
-
shotgun oca "tap fire" what u doing homie

if you dont even trust the company to tell the truth about a little thing like weapon stats, why would you even bother to play the game lol regardless the hard numbers are available on apbvault, altho if you really dont trust the company to tell the truth you could just test it for yourself ingame if it was just an estimate then its entirely possible that you got min ttk'd by an oca reskin before your second shot, they (including the f2p version) are very strong weapons and shotguns are currently a little overnerfed given the fact that you think reskins are p2w its safe to say you dont understand the game
-
its a car and its not the first or second best car either
-
this entire situation could be resolved with consistent numerical stats ingame no, any gun that is a reskin (or "functionally identical" i think it says on armas) does not have any edge over its f2p variant - identical means identical shotguns do high burst damage and in return they have a shorter range, 1.5s is more than enough time to get 2 shots off it honestly just sounds like you dont fully understand the game which, given you were trying to play in a bronze district, is understandable
-
never really understood the issue here tbh; aside from the fact you start the game with 2 permanent (and quite good) guns it takes maybe 2 missions to get enough money to lease a gun for 10 days, if you want a gun for every range you'll have to do 4 missions or so if an hour per week is too difficult, apb probably isnt the right type of game for you - altho to be fair once you start getting into slotted guns and mods its no longer quite so easy i also (might be biased, considering the filth that is my purchase history) have no problem with how the game encourages you to pay money for the convenience of skipping "the grind", its not like this is a typical mmo where theres indestructible endgame gear and unbeatable top tier weapons players can purchase
-
why would you want extra underpowered guns? if you really really have a need to play at a disadvantage, you get 2 character slots - make an enforcer character and main ltl
-
as someone with a couple dozen characters, i think rank progression is pretty ok you unlock most of the "necessary" equipment (guns and mods) within a few play sessions, and all progression is dependent on you playing as you normally would even if there was no leveling up at all apb has no real endgame since all gameplay content is provided via other players it can be a little grindy, but since that grind is basically the only thing to do in apb i personally dont feel its a bad idea to stretch it out as long as possible role progression on the other hand could use some work imo, mostly in the form of additional rewards to make the insane higher weapon role requirements more worthwhile to actively chase
-
thats the point that was made earlier tho, if you could level contacts from anywhere there would be very few people who voluntarily play waterfront it wouldnt be a problem if we could just balance the district but thats a pretty big undertaking, therefore not likely to happen until all the bigger core issues are dealt with

he’s on timeout until he fixes shotguns
-
i believe the jacket that he’s wearing is a preset unlocked from reaching max level with michael simeone
-
ask and ye shall receive lol any chance there could be an update to the system while it’s already being worked on? there were various weapons that didn’t have a trial for whatever reason, and personally i think the f2p trial time should be bumped up to 1 hour instead of 30min
-
those patch notes indicate that the accuracy over shots would remain the same, and the ntec at that time had a curve mechanic on the bloom
-
it would be nice to see an official response from orbit on this but i really can’t think of any reason that would justify removing the free trials if free trials are gone for good, does that mean the refund policy will change?
-
you say it like you (and every other schlub that would spam this gm with whispers) are always going to be correct whispering a gm won’t be all that different from using /report, in both cases a pretty thorough investigation has to be done before a ban happens - if a ban happens at all the gm isn’t gonna show up and terminate a potential customer over 5 minutes of spectating and a random whisper
-
weapon balancing should be your top priority

you unlock the flare gun from from aletta cadagan (level 6 iirc), and there’s also a variant available from the jt store
