ogre is fine, just stop sprinting through blind corners - if ogre users can't ambush you by bypassing the windup then they're free kills

Can the advance launcher still be installed?
vsb replied to kagm's topic in General Discussion Archive
the advanced launcher will be allowed until the engine upgrade is fully released, at which point most of the advanced launcher graphical options should be available through the ingame settings menu -
Welp, Looks like I was Right About the Server Pings :^)
vsb replied to a topic in General Discussion Archive
i guess technically you’re right, since moving the server back before they’re even finished moving them to new locations is a pretty stupid idea ive already bought everything on armas and i’m benefiting from the ny server location, feels pretty great tbh -
“don’t let a free discount pressure you into spending money on a product that wasn’t even useable for a majority of the last week” seems like pretty solid advice
-
it’s the universe telling you how poor a financial dedication it is to spend money on a horribly managed game that was literally down for like 72 hours this week

sounds like a pretty simple support issue

Downtime compensation - 7 Days of Premium

i haven’t been in a bronze district since 2011, hop off my banana homeslice -
that comparison makes no sense aside from diablo 3 being a successful game to begin with it’s also primarily a pve focused rpg afaik while apb has some rpg aspects it’s still a pvp shooter, and your character’s level and equipment is almost irrelevant - sure it’s nice to have 3slot guns and r195 mods, but at the end of the day any decent player will unlock a pmg/ntec/hvr within 10 missions and never really need anything else there’s no “fresh slate” when aim skill and game experience are the primary differences in “power levels” for apb

lol what? deleting someone's characters isn't going to magically remove their skill level nor would it magically create five thousand active players for matchmaking to use, a full wipe would change literally nothing - except make pretty much everyone quit i suppose, but "fixing" the game by killing it dead is just a meme solution

isn't being able to sit in social and design symbols compensation enough?

i use hs3, muzzle brake, and mob sling mb is def a non-standard choice but despite the increased vertical (lmao) recoil i still find myself more accurate overall with less horizontal recoil

what exactly makes this toxic tbh, its not even like they stomped your team any harder then they would the average gold team

"the game and the forums aren't even functioning at their normal level of bad but i'll test the armas system with real money, what could possibly go wrong?"

this was suggested but orbit has yet to recognize that systems like this are needed comparing the “organization” of 4 friends who want to play together to getting 80 random people to all log into apb at the same time feels kind of disingenuous having actually organized some larger clan events in the past, i understand just how difficult it is to wrangle a large number of players - just finding a schedule that works for everyone involved is a nightmare, and sometimes flat out impossible that aside, 80 gold players is more gold players than people who actively post on this forum or the unofficial discord, so how would you even get in contact with that many people in the first place? those 10 criminals are ramraiding or doing some clan activity so they’re essentially not there as far as opposed missions are concerned, worst case scenario they actually leave as soon as an enf joins the district no one wants to spend their limited game time just sitting in an empty district hoping other people join, that’s not why players boot up apb

they have to actually plug in the new servers :^)

i mean apb:r has never had more than like 10k players, it's just not a popular game -
Can we just appreciate this beautiful sight?
vsb replied to porcupine_omg's topic in General Discussion Archive
i think the last time there were so many users that the forums stopped working was when the community sperged out over the lixil stream nice to know we can all come together to be annoying as fuck -
When will the cancerous weapons come to an end in APB?
vsb replied to blockblack's topic in General Discussion Archive
the shaw has always been a decent weapon, if one that requires more effort to get the same results as other guns it shares the same problem as the lcr, there's a gun that does everything better - the euryale/stheno outperforms the shaw and the obeya outperforms the lcr -

yes the 100 million was for all of rtw's projects at the time (i think there were 3) but the fact that a huge amount of money went in to apb and very little came out remains, and that's the only fact that anyone considering "competing" with apb will consider -

the saints row games have gta 5 levels of customization at best and they're also not MMOs the division games are almost entirely pve content and customization is pretty subpar never played defiance so i have no comment -

its a flop because the return was not equal to the investment, doesn't matter how long a game lasts if its hemorrhaging money every step of the way
