vsb

i don’t really understand why pushing apb towards a more competitive gameplay experience is a bad thing, we’ve desperately tried the casual approach for almost a decade now and all we have to show for it is lower population than ever

seven hundred milliseconds, actually

i’m a little confused, the valentines guns are being removed even tho the valentines event isn’t over? edit: oh nvm the guns are being removed at a different time from the patch

laughs in colby subforums

what's with people assuming they know how hard it would be to add things into a codebase they've never seen?

what if i don't enjoy any people? this is discrimination

if you're so hung up on the need for me to present a suggestion, then you can consider that technically my counter-suggestion is that we leave the /abandonmission system exactly as it is right now there problem solved

provided you or the n5/p5 player is on a mission the previous system: n5 player and you are an enforcer/p5 player and you are a criminal - a yellow nametag, a yellow star on the minimap, and a red crosshair when aimed at n5 player and you are a criminal - a yellow nametag, a yellow star on the minimap, and a green crosshair when aimed at p5 player and you are an enforcer - a green nametag, a green star on the minimap, and a green crosshair when aimed at all n5/p5 players can be interacted with the new system: a grey nametag, no star on the minimap, and a white crosshair when aimed at no n5/p5 players can be interacted with its far simpler imo easier does not always mean more powerful

it's only confusing to you because you're used to the old even worse system, and now you know better i'm willing to bet you're in a very small minority that doesn't operate based on red/green nametags or crosshairs edit: i guess i should add that i don't have any issue with the icon not appearing, it just seems like a really small nitpick to me when you would have had the same issue under the old system where friendlies had n5/p5 icons as well

the icon won't appear unless the name is visible the only thing you have to keep in mind when seeing n5/p5 players now is whether you're currently on a mission or not, imo that's far simpler (especially when playing a criminal character) than determining what faction they are and whether or not you can fight them without putting yourself at a disadvantage

was it just the icon or was his name yellow? otherwise i refer back to my previous statement of only red and green names mattering

afaik n5/p5 players can't interfere in ongoing mission they aren't a part of if this is not the case, then i do agree that little orbit dropped the ball

if you're on a mission, then you don't have to assume anything - either they're a red opponent or a green teammate

what indicates that he's in your mission?

he’s right tho, phasing is worthless with jericho-level population you can’t have cross distinct matchmaking if there’s barely one district per threat in the first place

they’re both armas or joker store only

almost all of them, at least in ny

seems like the perfect thing for a CM to host for each recycled (or shit) holiday event while the devs are busy on the engine upgrade, little orbit should really look into hiring one :^)

legitimately disagreeing with a suggestion is not being a jackass, or even negative at all - no one disagreeing with suggestions is how rtw ended up making apb into a giant mess in the first place clearly didn’t comprehend my post, since you’re still making this a black and white argument my point was not that the system can be abused (we’re in agreement that almost every system can be), my point was that the potential abuse and subsequent negative effects in gameplay outweigh the potential positives

at least you guys followed the pricing model correctly this time

at least it gets some people to use slightly different weapons

at least there’s a chance orbit punishes dethreaters, as they have in the past no segregation just let dethreaters face bronzes without having to break the tos

it’s hard to take you seriously when you’ve played for almost a decade but think gold can only be achieved via cheating, and can’t even read the startup splash screen well enough to comprehend we have easyanticheat and not battleye

you’re welcome

negative feedback loops are supposed to affect players doing well the bounty system affects players doing good, average, or even poorly in their current mission this is not a correct negative feedback loop, so it was removed
