  1. except weve been told by the very people who did both for a time that ue4 apb just wasnt feasible keeping in mind that orbit hasn't really worked on a game of this scale before it seems pretty believable that it would be easier for them to work on the version that essentially has training wheels, rather than trying to create a AAA equivalent game from scratch
  2. there's a lot less german (?) in my apb
  3. the severity of the issue depends on what exactly matt did to get banned which afaik was never revealed, it could have been something bizarrely specific like standing in a certain spot and doing 360 camera spins or it would have been something anyone might do like tracking spotter tags when fairfight thinks you can't either way we were also told that fairfight wasnt paid for, updated, or maintained for about a year, which also led to it not functioning correctly
  4. they had literally no idea who was cheating or who wasn't and evidence that the anticheat wasn't functioning correctly for at least a year
  5. you would have a point if med spray wasnt buffed, but it was, and thats whats causing the imbalance
  6. the only time i get this is when there's a whole lot of packet loss happening
  7. except the engine is needed for that new content, unless you want more stuff that is absolute shit like riot
  8. then why not use the always sprint config that has now been officially approved?
  9. could have just leveled up via open conflict or mugging
  10. i have no idea how long ago "back then" means, but is it really surprising that a new company would have a different vision for apb?
  11. i think they accomplished exactly what was said in the patch notes, a .4s or .5s equip time "discourages this playstyle" without outright deleting it, but it does seem relevant to point out that the snub ttk buff technically made jg/snub more forgiving - i'll give orbit the benefit of the doubt that they wanted the playstyle to remain an option while bringing it closer to the "baseline" they're always going on about, and not fumbling around changing values without thinking i also don't think these changes came about just because of big streamers, i've seen complaints about both (altho jg/snub is definitely a lot rarer then pig qs complaints) for years, its just we finally have a company who's willing to listen to the community (or parts of it i guess), for better or worse apparently
  12. almost certain the snub hasn't been touched before this, its just a leftover from when the overall ttk was higher i also don't think the equip time nerf was bad, orbit overshot a bit (.3s or .4s would be more in line with other pistols than .5s) and the follow up buff took a while, but its far from the stupidest balance change orbit has done and its a weird thing for the video to hyper focus on
  13. the biggest reason is because literally everyone who plays has performance issues to some extent, which is something the engine upgrade is supposed to fix
  14. the matchmaking and district system cant happen without the engine upgrade, so that option feels like a duplicate i really dont see why we would have to choose between info about one or the other tbh, altho obviously specifics about anticheat measures should be kept to a minimum
  15. have you ever actually been to the doctor or car mechanic for a serious issue? because both will generally walk through exactly what they're going to do, if they just ask for money they're probably planning on stealing your car or organs "we want results not information" is such a stupid argument because either way the work is going to take the same amount of time, and i'm 99% certain the people who don't want information now were the same ones howling for news and updates when g1 had a complete communication blackout for 3 years
  16. what? just comparing the failed console engine upgrade from g1 to the pc engine upgrade beta from LO shows heaps of progress imo, even though the pc beta wasnt great i retain some hope in orbit because this game has nowhere else to go, from AAA company to predatory f2p publisher to company trying to break into the industry to a single rich buyer, apb is literally at the end of the line edit: christ that video was a waste of 4 minutes of my life
  17. if there was a way to detect ghost shots in real time like that then ghost shots would be fixed
  18. it really doesn't tbh, since both factions are broken up into multiple groups and no organization is really portrayed as good just throw in some flavor text about gang turf conflict or jurisdiction miscommunication and voila
  19. these aren't the only configs you guys are planning on officially approving are they? i kind of assumed there was going to be more performance stabilizing options available, if there are concerns about officially endorsing "clay graphics" there are several streamers who use configs that help performance without sacrificing every polygon
  20. and i bet they harass the people they hackusate too
  21. i'm 99% sure no one is getting banned ingame for hackusating unless they're also legitimately harassing their unfortunate targets
