I'll hold him up by the legs and you pull it off

Found an egg ^

You know, 1 $ is under 100 mil.

nah it's dead. let's just leave it. Bringing something back to life never ends well. someone doesn't know what a joke is

TL:DR There isn't a real problem but Op is trying to make one

I honestly don't see a problem with people playing with stretched res. It doesn't give a "big advantage" over anyone since it is mostly a placebo effect from what I've heard people say and anyone can do it, it just comes down to personal preference. An example would be me. I use 1440x1080 because it feels like I'm moving faster and for some reason, it makes the game a bit more enjoyable You are also talking about this like this is exclusive to APB, which it isn't. Stretched resolutions are a thing in almost every single competitive shooters these days. This thread just gives me the "someone is beating me in the game, they aren't better than me and it's not my fault. I need to find something to blame" vibes (I can see that ultra wide gives you some advantages but otherwise there is nothing to gain from it)

The link doesn't work anymore

Is this just a bad shitpost?

It's not designed for that, but it is a thing though.

its a mechanic that has been there for years and it prevents door camping. I don't see a reason for it to be removed

Yeah, well it depends on how you do it. It might not be an automated system. It could work similarly to the "open groups"

This is something I haven't thought about. I'd imagine that there would be a 3-4 to 1 ration so that that one "mentor" would have more than one new player to talk to ( might depend on how many join the "program"). But I think that the best thing would be like a clan page for the people in the program with the current "mentor" and buttons like "New mentor" and "leave program" with the ability to join again later. For the mentors, there would be something similar. A page where they can find the new players they are taking care of and also the ability to "kick" players and find new players that need help.

Yeah. That's the thing though. We will never get back to around 2k players if we don't get the new players to stay. Which this will probably help with

Updated the post to make it a bit more clear

Yes. I am aware of that. I was thinking the "mentors" could just spectate, similar to the spectators in the Christmas event.

what are you talking about then? I'm confused

Could you elaborate on the reward thing? And this isn't necessarily about getting new players to the game, it's about keeping them here. Yeah, we did that thing And yeah there should be a way for the mentor to "report" if the player he/she is helping is harassing him or something like that. maybe it will reassign the new player to another mentor and when he/she has been moved around x amount of times he/she will simply be kicked out of the program

One of the many problems I see with the game at the moment is the fact that the tutorial system might cover most things it's not easy for new players to transfer the tutorial to real gameplay. Something I would like to see is the reworked version of the refer-a-friend system where you get randomly assigned a new player that speaks the same language/languages you do. This would prevent someone from abusing the system and getting all the rewards with a friend and if we go from languages it would prevent a language barrier. You will spectate some missions (spectator mode from the winter event) and they can ask you questions about the game and its different mechanics. ( The only reason there would be rewards is so that players would be motivated to join the program as a "mentor") The players that are in the program would need to be approved somehow so we don't let some toxic players go in and flame these new players just trying to learn I know that LO has a lot of things to do at the moment so I'm not saying that this needs to be done now but if something like this gets implemented in the future it could potentially improve the number of new players that stay in the game OBS: There is still an "issue", how could we filter the appropriate people from the not so appropriate people. Got any suggestions? Also, I'm working on a more complete version to post as a game suggestion so please leave some feedback

Honestly, after playing this game since RTW released it I can say that it's been a long time since I enjoyed the game itself, I only enjoy the people I play with. Hopefully, that will change during this year with new content and a new engine. (This is not the account I started to play on)

Could it be a ban due to configs?

I think you don't understand how complex this problem is. As you said, "if they did something about it". There is no simple fix to this short or long term at the moments since first of all we have a bad threat system and we have a fair bit of players that are "in between" the threats. as someone said "some gold arent golds" The problem with the first fix was the effect of it had a worse effect than what they tried to fix and was therefore removed.

There have been efforts to fix this, but it only backfired read the other response I sent.

Yeah, that's because all the golds are in the silver districts so the silvers go to the bronze district. Somewhat natural reaction.

I like the basic idea of this but then we would need PVE missions for Enforcers as well.

when G1 did this the number of players dropped noticeably and with a player base of 700 ish that's not an option. This should be dealt with when we have a better threat system and a bigger player base. I know that players are going to stop playing if we don't fix this as well, but there really isn't a good solution to this with the current threat system (just a thought/opinion)
