Motorola

a guy whos trying very hard and losing

the fact that hes posting while the pop is dead af kinda shows you that he is focused on updating the game and doesnt give a shit about the current game's state cause once its ready then thats when it actually matters. play other games in the meanwhile or just play the game in a way that you actually can like get good at designing or creating themes etc.

they should put a copy character to EU option on armas for 20 bucks.. they could make like 200 dollars real quick.

there are many "old" games i can name that are way older than APB and have a steady pop and STILL are being updated and maintained. one of them that comes to mind is competitive and they are still balancing it its also like 20 years old. i don't buy the "game is too old" excuse... APB plays good it just needs fixes... once everything is fixed then it can just run on auto pilot like other old games that people are still playing. the MAIN problem that has haunted this game since the begining was its matchmaking. well i honestly think the match making worked better in beta days before they changed it to threat segregated servers... once they started locking people out of servers thats when dethreating became a thing.

id actually delete kevlar line entirely... its nothing more than a troll mod and doesn't make the game more or less tactical

can we get this, it would be a hit right about now.

problem is its very easy to get to gold as a new player also. had a teamate using heavy barrel 3 (his only mod he bought) on the condor non legendary 'vulture' and he was wondering why it took "so many shots" to kill this one guy he kept dying to over and over. for casual or new to apb players there is litterally no way for them to know anything about any of the guns, mods or cars

really tired of my level 20-30 bronze teamates not understanding their guns and wondering why they lose gunfights all the time. maybe if you would put the proper stats for every gun in the game where everyone can see them then people would try to use the proper guns for the proper situations. thanks

i either get a bronze on my team vs 3 golds (3 vs 2 with me having a bronze) or my team is dethreating or the op is dethreating. this is unplayable

They prob removed it then. It was a skinned pr3 scoped ntec with 3 point sling 2 as the 3rd mod. It was in the game as a fight club reward a temporary 7 day trial for winning silver weeekly reward in the beta of FC. I had the reward twice

the pr3 preset version is the only version of the scoped ntec that you can strafe with and maintain closed crosshair accuracy.

i hit a 300 ping player 3 times with a sitting duck without missing and then died. he even had the duck tagger over his head. id say "hp hacks" but yeah thats not a thing.

i agree with some of the op's suggestions except the carbine buff, carbine sucked before... yeah it was used alot but it still sucked. oca > pmg now.... i liked it when it was closer to oca = pmg and both could be used obir bolt timer sucks, less ammo is really nice... makes changing to it way less slower and restocking nades etc ursus was really good before... now that the ntec is usable again im just using this instead and havent really given the new ursus change any playtime. the little i played with it made it slower to shoot in actual games vs players though.... if you tap too fast it becomes really inaccurate. its like they balanced it around it having ir3 and didnt think about the players who dont use ir3 in ursus... i myself prefered mobility sling cause i didnt like how ir3 just turned it into a better obeya... now full auto and bursting is not a realistic way to play with ursus anymore. gutted scout change is nice, now no one is safe even clotting agent 3 players. and as you mentioned the silenced version is decent to use now. might have to buy a reaper not a fan of the manic jump shot accuracy nerf... and bigger crosshair/bloom etc... again its like they made these balance changes for people who only use hunting sight + ir3 on this gun... ruined the gun. this gun used to be perfect with just mobility sling and no other mods.... not possible anymore. pig needed to be changed but after playing with the new pig, its pretty trash now. if they wish to keep it at 650 stamina they should really make it a 2 shot magazine with a slow fire rate that is quicker than a reload. or make the stamina damage slightly higher and nerf perc stamina damage by a ton (which will also promote players to use STUN nades over them with all LTL) act44, snub, rsa nerfs are all dumb and not needed and should all be reverted. agreed with FAR change... with ntec being buffed again there is little to no reason to use far over it anymore. again this change just removes options from players, instead of 2-3 assault rifles now we only have 1 realistic rifle to use... the rest is "meme guns"

yeah this is the first game ive ever played that balanced their guns around cheaters. only it just makes legit players have a harder time competing because aimbot and triggerbot is still a huge advantage even with the inaccurate weapons. if they would make all the guns accurate again and just have gms that can spectate and kick/ban cheaters along with a real matchmaking then we might have a game that wont die. they dont even have to ban anyone... just flag the cheaters and make it so that they can only vs eachother... eventually they will just hate playing enough to leave.

well when there is no way to balance matchmaking you gotta make good players worse somehow.

if they pay for my schooling i think i could make the engine faster if i go to college and learn how to code.

that should also apply to silvers and bronzes being in the gold district. they dont want to face golds but golds dont want them on their team also.

agreed, this is what i was talking about in another thread about how they are making the gunplay 'clunky' the fun parts of the game was quick switching, jump shotting, being quicker than your opponent with your pistol etc etc... now its very basic and slow 1 weapon for specific range style fights.

It was nice seeing the whole enf or crim pop go from 50 to 10 when entering the district XD

I rather be insta killed by a quick switching HVR player than tagged by a sniper hiding behind something at 95m.

i dont understand how you are losing a fight vs an obeya with an hvr... i seriously don't lol.

I don't see the point in 'upgrading' gpu from 1070-1080... games ive played recently run fine with my 1080. If you want good FPS and performance on APB upgrade your cpu instead... helps with every other game also. using an i9-9900k atm with capped fps ... once engine upgrade comes then ill upgrade to <insert whatever good card is out>.

yeah i prob shouldve just said "imagine you both have shotguns and you both shoot once and while you are lining up a second shot he 1 taps you with a pig before you can react" my bad and maybe i shouldve said "imagine being nicked by the tip of a perc splash then the guy just runs up and 1 taps you with a pig" thanks. now neither can happen, good.

imagine having a shotgun battle with someone and you both run out of ammo (unlikely but yeah) and then you pull out your FBW and he pulls out his pig and you shoot 2-3 times and he 1 taps you with a pig. imagine running up on a guy using a dog-ear and you have an OCA smg and you get the drop on him and he turns around with his dogear and hipfires you 1 time then instantly 1 taps you with his pig. imagine a guy just runs up on you and spams you with a perc and just 1 taps you with a pig. imagine being hit by any gun 1-4 times and then being instantly 1 tapped by a pig.... you should get the point now.

people mad they have to throw 2 percs now instead of 1 to use the pig... yikes.
