as much as i didnt really agree with the insane 950 damage shots, the strife was balanced very well imo as it is now theres absolutely no reason to use it, unless you're trying to dethreat

most of the stock guns are not shit but i agree all armas weapons should have white symbols on the scoreboard, with the exception of legendaries and the purples from retail boxes (and the dog ear, for some strange reason)

gotta listen to those footsteps for maximum tactical awareness #socksquad

the last patch added a majority of previously armas-only weapons to the joker store for purchase (which is a fantastic move tbh), but things are slightly off still weapons are the same price for different amounts of slots for no discernible reason i think 0slot weapons should be 500JT, 1slot weapons 700JT, and 2slot weapons 1000JT - just a personal suggestion different amounts of slots are offered for different guns, seemingly at random there are some guns for 750JT? other guns are incorrectly labelled as having more slots than they actually do a lot of preset weapons that are priced the same as open slotted weapons i think 1slot preset weapons should be 500JT, and 2slot preset weapons should be 700JT, another personal suggestion theres also still some guns missing, the Joker RFP-9 'Fang' and the VAS SW2 (N-SSW 74 reskin) for example while this is easily the best change from the last patch, i just hope it wasnt a one-and-done kind of thing

the point was that battleye doesn’t monitor statistics and therefore any attempt to mess with the game files has an equal chance of triggering a ban

stats should be on armas page regardless if theyre final or not imo otherwise its not a good way for orbit to start off their armas reign, considering how hard it was to get g1 to put stats up in the first place

money already wasted on it, because im an apb sucker forever

and the new gun isnt even on armas i demand orbit let me waste my money immediately

honestly not sure why the kttw pack doesnt come with open slot guns, for $150 i dont want presets

pretty sure even the balance dev beastie said he had no idea why such a simple fix wasnt corrected

theres no anticheat that would be effective against built in mouse macro software, at least not without simply preventing people from using a huge variety of different gaming mice orbit has explained that it was a "fresh start" of sorts because g1 had little to no documentation on bans, and fairfight itself was set up incorrectly - yes it means some cheaters were unbanned, but it also means people who were unfairly banned were exonerated your points about the "corrupt" staff are moot at this point since nearly all of them are gone the shotgun buff seems like a bandaid fix for the bad servers imo (treating the symptoms instead of the cause) and i feel its going to remove most of the smgs from the cqc equation killing someone close range with an hvr is incredibly easy, especially if you got the first shot off - the hvr was not balanced as it was that said, i disagree with the seeming continuation of the pattern of giving individual weapons their own unique mechanics, which are sometimes contradictory to every other part of the gunplay, in an attempt to balance them imo adding more and more complicated measures to balance guns ruins the simple yet polished arcade gunplay that sets apb apart from other shooters ntec is fine as it is imo atac trades that "blind man" ease of use for accuracy ursus has the same range as the ntec, minus an extra 5m of near-minimum damage at the end of dropoff rfp is def op currently the yukon wasnt nerfed, it was fixed - the gun was bugged, both g1 and orbit have acknowledged that UL3s are pretty balanced, ironically the bloody mary is arguably the worst imo opgl is balanced as is this is precisely what legendaries are, they offer unique playstyles, not necessarily better playstyles, and its a perfectly good thing as it players still spend money on joker boxes but the ingame balance remains unaffected by potential p2w guns this post is honestly starting to seem more like an excuse to complain about the yukon nerf, and it devalues all of your other points because its obvious you cant look past your own desires and be objective theyve given us plenty of info on the engine upgrade i do agree that all these changes seem to be happening fast but if you think about it from orbits pov, they just purchased a game that was likely on its last legs, they need to turn it around quickly in order to make profits in order to keep turning it around im also 100% positive that if orbit had purchased the game and taken it slow the community would have rioted, we already had signs of it happening when it took 3 weeks for them to get battleye up and running, the community was foaming at the mouth also i believe the main weapon balance dev is someone they rehired either from early g1 or rtw so while apb has certainly changed a bit hes def far more familiar with it than most of the new orbit staff

i could see this being the 4x4 version of the bishada tbh lol

if we're getting the same build that was on otw today, then the ntec has def not been nerfed, you'll be fine

i'd rather they just only have the "Out Of Bounds" mechanic activated while a player is on a mission

have you tried turning it off and on again?

its being added to the joker store and normal armas purchasing before the jb variant is even getting released, and theres additional f2p variants coming later what exactly is the problem if the jb variant is balanced?

also is this a teaser for new game mode and/or new contact rewards?

doesnt the thunder variant have a rof reduction in exchange for something? seemed pretty jb gimmick-ish to me

just buy one thru an RMT site :^)

im hoping for one contact, one armas, and one joker box

cisco has the front of the bmw z4 and the rear of an aston martin vantage imo

looking forward to nothing really changing, except for cqc meta revolving around shotguns now

im always ready to complain

flak jacket is really only useful in fc where explosives get spammed in missions its generally not worth the trade off of having near instant regen start

i like the warmer color palette of rtw but the bloom is out of control
