i feel like these only support my point, out of all these clips the closest to a min ttk are 20m and 30m away which is the exact range the atac is designed to fill - but like in your clips anyone with even passive cover requires you to use nearly an entire mag to secure a kill, if not more as i said before i don't think a range nerf back to 40m would really make any difference so go wild with that, but i'd prefer not to add more rng to apb

why is your perception of a weapons stats or stat changes based on a single day of what you can remember your opponents using? if we were all to do that then i remember seeing a bunch of oca players yesterday, so it must be op now right?

there’s nothing really all that difficult or messy about it, you and i both summed up such a policy in less than 3 sentences in fact i’ve personally been involved in such a situation; another forum user referred to me by one of my discord handles which is technically considered against the forum ToS, the other user was warned but explained the situation, and the warning was rescinded - easy peasy painless (and quick) i see you’ve also chosen to completely ignore the other more relevant parts of my post, but your reply to someone else is related so there is no difference between your two options both are “dev generated content” and according to you all “dev generated content” should conform to the ToS said devs created, so we’re back to what differentiates why some potentially offensive “dgc” is acceptable and some “dgc” is unacceptable

that seems like a pretty dangerous allowance, literally anything could be construed as acceptable as long as it was ingame before little orbit took over? and how does that relate to user generated content - what if i had a symbol that's against little orbit's ToS, would it be okay because i made it in 2016? im not sure who brought up 'fuck' but my examples specifically were illegal (in many US states at least) acts and other derogatory (comparable to 'wh*re') words used to refer to women, none of which seemed to have bothered you even now after they've been pointed out this seems like a flimsy excuse to me, anyone using the title and being called a wh*re likely doesn't care because they are already labeling themselves as such anyone calling someone without the title a wh*re gets a warning or whatever the appropriate disciplinary action is and the line is drawn at worst we get another thread like this one where someone doesn't understand the difference between the two scenarios and it gets explained to them

putting aside that the ToS is very specific about user generated content, i would reuse your own words - how deep does that rabbit hole go then? should little orbit remove the potentially offensive content that i listed in my previous post? should less derogatory titles like 'scrub' or 'noob' be removed as well? should certain clothing items be removed for being obscene? do the voiceovers need to be censored?

legendaries should not be called legendaries, its rather misleading in my opinion and only serves to confuse players who don't have 10k hours in apb i do think legendaries overall need a rebalance pass (just like half the guns in apb tbh) because i feel legendaries should be guns with unique gameplay mechanics and several of them are lacking: we have legendaries with special mechanics but that barely effect gameplay like the sitting duck/reaper, firework launcher, and ursus we have legendaries that have no special mechanics at all and are essentially just normal guns like the hazardous, the nano, and the ffa we have some combos of 1 & 2 like the anubis or the ocsp line and we have the volcano, which is a little too legendary and has a silly mechanic even for apb i don't think that the community's perceived monetary value is a reasonable basis for balancing weapons

premium gives you a 20% discount on nearly all armas purchases and the current free premium is not compensation

at best little orbit rewarding a title with wh*re in it might create a loophole when calling players with that specific title wh*res but i don't understand how you've managed to wrangle this around to it allowing someone to call any player a wh*re, there's clearly a disconnect somewhere and no i don't really think titles or rewards really have a limit beyond what will garner too much negative PR, and having a title with wh*re in it is nowhere near that arbitrary limit in a game most players expect to be a gta clone its already been mentioned several times, but the use of wh*re seems insignificant in a game that references no/sex trafficking, bestiality, describes female contacts as "bitches", etc - is the issue specifically that this title is a new (is it even new) addition? if little orbit added a new mission tomorrow and the mission stage flavor text referred to the other team as something offensive, would you take this as a complicit allowance that you are allowed to call every player that offensive term, regardless of mission or faction?

i've already said there's a difference between someone voluntarily calling themselves a wh*re and someone slinging the word at others, so no i do not see the irony nor do i think i can really help you understand the difference if you don't already

if you're getting "melted" by atacs at...40m? 50? 60? (can you specify what you define as mid-long please) then i urge you to try using cover tbh i wouldn't even care if they knocked the atac range back to 40m, that's where it was originally iirc and it still struggled to min ttk within its range

the context very clearly pointing to the "secondary" definitions were conveniently left out of the original post maybe i'm reading too much into this but did one of you get a warning or something for calling another player a wh*re? because it seems like there's a (hopefully) obvious distinction between calling someone a wh*re and someone voluntarily displaying a title

it's not really limited to guys calling each other wh*res, but yeah your own first link shows multiple definitions for the word, some of which are clearly gender neutral i just don't understand why this instance of potentially offensive language specifically is a problem, especially when equipping the title itself is completely voluntary

i couldn't resist sorry but seriously "horrendously broken"? the gun struggles to land consistent shots within its own effective range and it has an abysmally low skill ceiling, there's a reason its the "go-to gun for every noob" (not that i even see many noobs using it) and not "for everyone"

the forums have a 13+ rating because there is no age gate to access it afaik, as opposed to the game which is rated M (or whatever the equivalent is outside the US) and requires an account to play perhaps my experience is because i live in the US but nice lady is definitely used towards both genders and given that little orbit is a US based company its likely they share the same experience that aside, the game has much more explicit language used so i'm not sure why this specific instance is more important?

nice lady is the censor for wh*re, which is slightly ironic because wh*re itself is not specifically geared towards a gender

isnt nice lady just another word for prostitute? it might have a negative connotation because prostitution is frowned upon in a large portion of the world but idk if the word itself is really that bad

i honestly can't tell if you're trolling at this point or not

there's a wh*re title?

the raptors are all solid alternatives to the atac and occupy the exact same niche the huntress, carbine, oscar, and even pmg to a certain extent all play within the same range as the atac but the ntec and jg literally just got nerfed, so which "veterans" are you talking about? i honestly can't tell if you're trolling at this point or not

everyone has free premium (and thus a discount) already, ur getting a little greedy

no

i haven’t logged in for a bit so i can’t really comment on any potential “accidental” changes, but the atac being able to out ttk a tapfiring ntec or star is nothing new

more likely because if enemies spawned within radius of your mobile radar they were marked on your (and your teammates') radar permanently tagger isn't really comparable to the other three, since it doesn't show through walls

the highest rank requirement should be r85 imo unlocking absolutely everything within a dozen hours of playtime is as bad for the game as keeping stuff locked for 500 hours my personal suggestion is to move as many unlocks behind role progression (maybe even create some new roles) as possible, that’s a better mix between a time gate and a skill gate imo

i think it’s pretty well known that 0-255 is about 300 to 500 hours i don’t know if i would shorten the actual progression time, but where and when items that affect gameplay are unlocked definitely needs a thorough revamp
