vsb

what?

seconded bet it wouldn't take a year to be (un)playable either

nothing about battle royales are competitive, the entire game mode is based on rng

yeah there was about zero testing done on the “new” event

welcome to the meat grinder

can we get a quick reboot for the engine upgrade too

i think it’s understandable that people might want a permanent all around effective primary (ursus) over a pretty niche and limited one (volcano), especially if they aren’t big spenders and only have 1 or 2 permanent weapons in their locker

tl;dr - riot sucked and would require massive changes to actually be viable

they indicate my slow descent into madness apparently

"rare"

i'll second this, just to see the salty thread about how orbit is ruining the value of a "rare" gun

can we get wingdings 3 instead?

it’s not like removing that fog currently massively boosts fps or anything

why should a player who is willing to play and pay as much as us “veterans” (maybe more so considering how many veterans quit for years and still have access/ownership of exclusive items) be deprived of content just because of an arbitrary join date? and why are you seemingly obsessed with owning exclusive items for the sole purpose of showcasing your “superiority” over these players?

why?

the text you circled is always present whether an item is account bound or not

as stated by mattscott already, moving to ue3 to ue3.5 is relatively simple, it’s technically the exact same engine after all moving from ue3 to ue4 would require an entire rewrite of apb, essentially remaking the game from the ground up - not only would a transition to ue4 require throwing out thousands of hours of dev work already spent on ue3.5, but the timescale would be measured in decades judging by orbits current work speed

the regular ntec

actually seems like orbit made an oopsie at some point, as these packs clearly used to be account bound i thought we were supposed to be shifting armas to entirely account bound, not the other way around?

at the very least, i admire the confidence you have in your entirely incorrect statements

"why do people value arguably the 2nd best gun in apb so much?" idk probably cuz it looks cool broski

rip

the reason the original code is so bad is the same reason the engine upgrade is necessary, apb "pioneered" a lot of features that are now basically considered standard for open world games and like most prototypes there were more than a few flaws, which have since been (mostly) ironed out over the years afaik the console versions were caused by g1 selling the console publishing rights to another company who then botched their own development of the engine upgrade

several of the event clothing items are tradeable

matchmaking is still in effect even in non-segregated districts
