this is honestly something i can't support, even when i am drunk a lot of misinformation around here and this is generally just a huge mess Actuality the term pay-to-win is one of those things that evolves and changes based on context. Were APB a game where you won by ranking up, anything that improved your chances of doing so, it would be argued that it is pay to win. Pay to win was a term invented to distinguish an old trait that existed on early mmorpgs, free ones, that often would have various items that would aid the player were he one to support the game and keep the lights on for the devs. It "used" to make sense, because back then, nobody would think of buying a cosmetic item for money, so the developers of these old games were afraid nobody would buy them. It became a problem when the bridge between good and bad players, would come down to how much money you had, entirely defeating the point of a F2P game and leading to everyone eventually leave in droves and "paid players" remaining alone in a deserted game till they eventually left. (hence the term, pay to win, you were essentially buying your way to victory) Common issues that existed with pay to win tho, are sort of being replicated again, because most companies idolize this cannibalizing monetizing "solution" as ideal without actuality knowing why it was abandoned in the first place, spoiler alert: it wasn't because it came from the goodness of their hearts. Some of them, unfortunately, are smart enough to make P4C, which is basically P2W without the downsides, other than annoying the shit out of you, just like in old nagging "your free trial has ended" messages. I genuinely did play a lot of these shitty games, so i would know, but here are some sources in case you still want to make up more vapor from nothing: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Free-to-play#Pay-to-win https://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=pay-to-win APB has got a lot of issues alright, but thankfully, pay to win isn't one.

yeah because i still want to go to bed and sleep more

ye if i instantly master a backflip, it won't be anymore last time i did one, i blacked out and woke up later that day

backflip front-flipping is fairly easier than the former, which is sorta nauseating to do plus it makes me look like a fucking ninja

ye i guess so well, what i get from all this. .is that everyone loves the G502

mousewheels, mouse buttons.. the quality overall is pretty shit imo honestly don't understand the fame

got a steelseries rival 100 mouse, because i was scarred after using a razer i should likely get a better one, but i really don't care at this point, it does the work and hasn't died yet

pretty cool

regardless if anyone is, i don't really see a problem the suggestion (other than being silly) sounds like really within the realm of possibility for LO

can't wait to have a pink muzzle flash going all *POMF*

bath in their blood for immortality

i thought they tasted like goat meat or something like that

That's a very interesting idea ~@bell

ye.. tho Just a couple of key-points, loyalty rewards reward spending. Even though both reward JMBs, they essentially reward two kinds of spenders: the loyalty rewards the frequent supporters/ players who buy a lot of microtransactions premium, "would be" a casual way of rewarding people who don't spend that much, but still want to support the game in a more passive way To be entirely blunt, i don't know what really works best for LO, they'd likely have better stats than me on that, but the current system does more harm than good. For a game that sort of prides itself with amazing customization, it sort of falls sort when you are so heavily capped in it unless you pay a premium. Also the whole jmb thing was just a suggestion, for all i know, even a battle pass would make more sense. Or something else entirely, idk

i genuinely was thinking about this last night after i made the post but, its just much more worth it to remaster and improve gun sounds over this

dam i missed that, gonna edit that part, but point still remains

i mean... much of the money they make on current APB, is from micro-transactions, rather than the premium system If anything i think they should update premium benefits instead. To reflect the community better and what we value more: like it keeping its discount thing going on while also offering joker boxes & tickets or something a month. Would be a pretty good opportunity to also remove stuff like faster mod cooldowns, that is just a pretty bygone concept now days. Plus, for these special occasions/events they can just run a server wide xp/apb$ boost

this is exactly why erica left you for the tribe

you don't use earthsuits when on earth do you

the most ambitious sequel

snubnose akimbo

ur welcome gamer

I AM A BELLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL

cmon dude. Its a legit issue, humans simply aren't built to be in space, without any sort of protection, our bodies would fail, due to the lack oxygen and pressure in space, you'd lose conscious and your eyes would explode how fucking terrible would it be to be in space while some earthquake was going on i just can't grasp the thought of perishing in the vast, old and terrifying void of space, where nobody can hear you scream and no god can reach you damned to forever drift space without even a proper burial, this before any sort of radiation fries your head off or grows a super cancer even you were immortal, your mind couldn't handle or even navigate space without it feeling like some sort of torture

well i mean at least if you were in the ground, your lungs wouldn't implode and you could possibly survive
