there is a need for incentives imo, while good testing does require actual gameplay scenarios it also requires a lot of non-gameplay activity which generally isn’t fun or entertaining at all - if you’re going to ask the players to voluntarily not play, shouldn’t you make it worth their time? especially on jericho where even the minor player shift into the test districts meant regular districts suffered as well drawing the devs attention to issues only works if the devs actually pay attention, more on that below i’ve yet to see any actual acknowledgement of feedback in relation to balance changes, the devs seemingly provide 2 test district options but then arbitrarily choose to use one for live stats regardless of what players discuss - the only exceptions were the shotgun and ir3 changes, both of which the devs recieved pretty vehement feedback on from otw and went live with anyway, only to revert them once literally the entire forum community voiced their opinion i have no issues with this, if the devs have a specific vision for what they want apb to be and are consistently working towards that more power to them (although obviously ill still voice my opinion about it) i just think think it’s a little disengenuous to pretend that the players’ feedback has so much power over the game direction frankly i imagine we’d be in largely the same place we are now, except maybe lixil would still be streaming with players

as much as i agree, was there a need to post a second thread in the wrong forum section?

8 / 10 great cruise vibes never fails to make me feel like im wasting my life

wouldnt poor people be the only ones who dont have the time to worry about this?

stk increases to 6 immediately after 10m, the FR0Gs have no overdamage whatsoever iirc

oh god

what part of immersion is buying ammunition from a supply box that you (or your character, for immersive purposes) already owns? id say games are going to dogshit status because of the increasingly common practice of adding tedious, time consuming mechanics that have no purpose other than to slow down gameplay and calling it “content”

yeah i don’t think the .45 needs to be touched, if you’re hitting 5 out of 7 consecutive shots on a moving target at 40m i think you deserve a kill rfp should def get a range nerf

you upvote if you agree, so you downvote if you disagree what’s the big deal?

this ain’t it chief

its just a prank bro

are you saying some people here are full of shit?

thank god we have a trading system so the idiots can’t shoot themselves in the foot anymore - probably just a matter of time until they find another way tho lol can we get a forum rule about begging for free stuff

honestly i never really thought asylum blended very well with the apb aesthetic but the only alternative is removing it, and deleting content is the worst

what? i like this suggestion tbh

i’d be fine with open pvp if there was randomly spawned objectives to force the population to focus around different areas and extra spawns (like the ones from the chaos/anarchy districts) to get back to the action faster

lazy repost of my thoughts on patch day

he was comparing dethreaters knowing how the threat system works and exploiting it to scammers knowing how the trade system works and exploiting it, i guess kind of confused on the terminology myself

ah cool, so its kind of variable kind of figured tbh, thought id ask anyway lol

/report mattscott trade scam :^)

an interesting explanation, nice to see this addressed so quickly after the patch can we get any specifics/examples of what some of these criteria are (besides logging in from a new location)? you've said it will change but is there an exact time you're starting with in place of 3 days?

stay frosty

no reason both cant be done, taking action against dethreaters while fixing the issues that "cause" dethreating in the first place sounds fine to me
