    Won't let me log into APB and in my opinion the Easy Anti Cheat does not work, i am still facing a lot of cheaters. I thought EAC was meant to ban all the hackers/cheaters but obviously it's just a second version of Battle Eye. Maybe if you report them then they will look into it and maybe ban them, but it should ban them automatically when they try to log in if their are any cheats activated. 

    didn't even make it 24 hours, that's gotta be a new record

    Why is a character NC more than a whole new character slot lol? And why is it so damn expensive from the begin with, to simply change your name? There are people with patreons where they are making a living producing art  with their resub at only cost amount only being 1 dollar. Hella time and work goes into making a art piece. But changing your name? Something that takes no time at all or even effort, costs 10 dollars? O_O" I feel like yall would profit more if the price was lower because people would change their name for memes or even to avoid other people lol...

    May aswell just buy a whole new character slot and select the name i want since it's cheaper. And I get most will argue (its like that because you lose your progress so people are more inclined to pay more to keep it). Not me.

    there are also people making a living by typing 30 second ai prompts, things are priced to what people will pay for them

    Makes me wonder what would happen if setting the timer to like 0 or 1, so that the GC process is just continuously running. Or at least to some super low value. The point being to not allow "garbage" to collect into any kind of sizeable amount, making there less for the GC process to have to deal with.

     it’s unplayable - the stutter happens no matter how short the timing is, decreasing the time between flatlining just makes fps completely unstable

    Guys, EAC is In the program in the game. its fkn Logo is in the lead in trailer.

    So We already have it, just not turned on till they adjust things.

    So to my knowledge we already have it, of course some sort of update patch would be necessary.

    So I'm not Wrong. >>>> points at logo. n I think its something else, maybe that new car or what ever is behind curtain 3.

      But i would think a long lengthy downtime patch is something else.

    So yea just like the PB logo is there but its turned off since it banned everyone that time.

    as I said, yes i would expect some update would be needed, just as windows has updates ect.

    just not a lengthy one, lengthy ones generally mean new content. 

     I think U guys just like being a tool to me, Ill go away now

    damn bro that’s crazy, rtw is in the trailer too, i guess they didn’t go bankrupt 10 years ago after all

    You think all of us who are playing this game. We haven't had to start someday.


    And we've played back in the days of GamersFirst (they really didn't care about hackers).


    Only the difference is, we've kept playing regardless.

    And we don't cry at every forum post.

     

    So less cheap sarcasm. And more training.

    i get the mindset, but for perspective - can you tell me how many people from "back in the day" are still playing? And out of those old players still playing, how many are spending money?

    the casual players don't necessarily need to be listened to but they do need to be placated, because the game needs them to stick around long enough to open their wallets

    Except it isn't, as anyone who has tested both the STAR and LCR ingame (as I have, both before and after the patch) can tell you. Their jump accuracy remains unchanged, and on top of that, this is beyond easy to tell because both have different accuracy while jumping (LCR is more accurate, as expected). According to the patch notes, both should have the same accuracy, and the STAR especially should be a third tighter than it currently is.

     

    If you're going to try and hit me with a "gotcha", you might want to make sure you have anything to stand on. Sit the fuck down.

    i admire the confidence bro

     

    you wrong as hell, but the confidence is nice

    Did FairFight ban legitimate players?

    EDIT: I'm asking this because I was looking at the banned players on the FF website, and I read some comments from people saying that the banned players were legit. Of course it could just be friends lying on behalf of the guy who got banned.

    fairfight was used to manually ban people for non-cheating offenses while claiming all fairfight bans were for cheating and there were false cheating detections due to fairfight not being properly maintained by g1 - these have been confirmed by orbit as reasons for lifting fairfight bans, altho we were never given any specific numbers or names afaik

     

    keep in mind that ffbans was a third party website that scraped the ban announcements off twitter, people could and would say whatever they wanted on the site

    we’re at a point where no single anticheat is enough, the optimal setup imo is a client side anticheat to stop people downloading free shit from the first page of google, and a server side anticheat to catch those that bypass the client side anticheat - in apb’s case, eac and fairfight

    Battle Eye is not an Anti Cheat per say

    battleye is first and foremost an anticheat

     

    the reason you get a message from battleye is because it’s integrated into the login system

    We cannot judge eac at this point because they only installed the free version

    some years back, and it has never banned anyone to my knowledge.

     Additionally EAC collects information over time, and only after that Time

    does it begin 'Flagging those accounts that are receiving information they should not

    be receiving. So this would be effective towards Wall hax, large teleporting, speed hacking

    If the full version was installed, and its not.  cuz they lazy.

    orbit discontinued eac the first time over price, it wasn’t free

     

    eac has client side functions that scan files for changes

    it’s frustrating because it feels like little orbit has given up on weapon balance when it’s something that could be done right now to hold onto player engagement until the big issues are tackled

     

    there’s been dozens of detailed total weapon balance suggestions submitted by decent players, just pick one and spend an hour per week copy pasting stat values - there doesn’t seem to be a clear vision for combat at orbit, so yoink someone else’s, experiment now so that when (if) players come back for the big fixes the core gameplay feels different enough for them to stay

    LOL at several people in this thread casually confessing to cheating / using cheats previously.

     

    On the more serious note:

    Why isn't there a system where, if a player receives a dozen of reports from a dozen of different players in a span of 30-60 minutes or whatever, they get temporarily banned from matchmaking / missions / game / whatever, and GMs get notified to take a look at the case and act upon it.

    there’s already a disturbingly large group of people who harass the better apb players on a regular basis because they’re convinced anyone above silver is cheating

     

    same thing happens to certain streamers

     

    now imagine if those people could prevent players and streamers from playing apb without breaking the tos

    I would like to change my character's face, maybe get rid of the facepaint he's wearing, maybe adjust his height. Is it possible to do that stuff? Or do I just have to start a new character? If it is possible, where do I go to do it? I looked all over the social district and didn't find any kiosks that seemed to be related to that.

    It depends on how you set it. The maximum distance is 500m.
    Here 1500 the max distance (Pic from google):

    Considering last stage deathmatch shows nametags further, and we used to have the option to see enemy vehicle mobile spawners on the whole map, it wouldn't surprise me if player position is always visible to your client. Plus, your client needs to see at least 120M or so to smoothly draw players coming into range at 100M.

    most injectable cheats use client side data, which is only available up to ~100m for player models, because that’s all that’s needed to render characters

     

    TDM tags are serverside, and afaik they aren’t linked to character models; the server says “place tag here” and your client says “okay!” no matter what - it’s why TDM tags have such frequent desync issues
