    I remember the days when GM's would hang out in districts and ban hammer people on the spot, put people in time out for making barricades, or mute people for being overly vulgar.  I miss those days 😞

    Can't afford to lose half of playerbase.

    They aren't working on UE4 anymore (Matt confirmed this years ago). They're upgrading to UE3.5, and that's the end of it.

    Even worse. Does this mean they're just working on adding a texture pack and a filter to make light and shadow look more "realistic"?

    im getting bored of waiting for the new engine update, our ancestors didnt fight for our freedom so i could wait for a update for a dead game.

    Just uninstall the game and play other stuff while you "wait".
    Let's face it, it's never going to happen, and even if it does, not going to revive the game, unreal engine 5 is out, and they're taking over +10 years to bring APB to 3.5, then 4.
    Let's stop dreaming and see the real picture. LO has passion but not the resources to do this.
    As much as I love APB and it's unique gameplay experience, it's too late.
    A new game would've been a better idea. Just make APB 2 in a new engine from 0. Would've taken less years, that's for sure.

    The unreal engine editor thingy of the updates feels like they have one more year of work ahead tbh

    I feel it would've been faster to just make a new game based on APB mechanics in the new engine. Instead of having to rewrite all the code to make it work on a new engine.

    Hey, havent played APB in a long, long time. I stopped playing while waiting for the new engine to go live. So... yeah, still waiting.
    I'm wondering if the engine is really going to be a thing someday, or it's just broken promises.
    I really like this game, but I feel like all it's potential has been wasted.

    What year is the game finally getting shut down?

    This year? 

    Next year?

    Last for another decade?

     

    Personally I am betting 2022. Maybe later in the year. Engine update will come out and the game will still die.

    Alternative is LO moves on, stops supporting APB after realising it isn't going anywhere, and has to do something else to save their company. So APB just sits there alive until the servers dwindle to 50 people and 2030 rolls around for the final coffin.

    As long as people keep wasting money it's gonna keep going. When money stops, they're gonna close it.

    Yet cj3 OCA/Euryale is fine? At least LTL+PIG required skill and effort yet still falls short to these.

     

    Might wanna actually play the game with something respectable before trying to state concluding remarks.

    Why do you speak as if you know what I play with?
    Btw, there's no such thing as "respectable" setup, there's always someone crying about what you use.

    I really thought this was going to be the case when those very first screen shots of whatever this mode was going to be (in 2017 I think?)

    I think would have worked out better being more than the RIOT/BR mode we ended up with. 

     

    It would basically be the Area Control final mission/FC mode but on a larger scale, tweak it to make it majority rule or you have to destroy/take over consoles to gain the full area, or anything idk I haven't played Planetside 2, and it would really work out. Fresh map, something that could be jury-rigged into the lore to explain why the Enfos and Crims are scrambling to control it, sprinkle some Joker Tickets, maybe Daily Tasks, New Contacts (or let us level current ones of our choice) and we've got ourselves a nice alternative to FC.

    I though the same, BR doesn't fit APB at all, but LO though BR is a magic key for success, but they don't realized how many games were doing BRs and failing.

    Yesss. So much this. Like seriously, so many people seem to whoop out this giant-patootie book of UN sanctioned rules for pressing that B for Backup but damn I don't care what the team is like if I can spam B, I'm spamming B, the more the merrier! I love the giant missions, I just wish it would add more time to the timers when new players arrive because we've all felt those times when backup finally calls but there's only 40 seconds left and you're already 800m away. 

     

    It was disappointing when LO said they'd be sticking to 4-player groups, I feel like APB gets better with more players in missions, yes there is a critical mass and I get why some players would dislike it if they're forced into those missions every time, but that's the glory of giving us OPTIONS those who do not like can simply opt-out, I just don't understand why some people disagree with having an option. I see that down arrow above but all I did was offer an option - you like bronze-stomping? Tick the "APB Nightmare Mode" box. No like? don't tick the box! What is there to dislike in getting offered both options and being allowed to choose your own play?

    I miss missions with lots of people too.
    That's why a game mode with open map, Crims vs Enforcers, having to control areas to win the map would be awesome. Like Planetside 2.
