    No! and i am not voting on your stupid link since you are too lazy to use the forum ones. now stop trying to make the factions the fucking same. Let there be some damn difference between the factions as intended for fucks sake.

    Just stop! What gives you the right to insult, patronize other new players that are trying to find their way on the forums. Unbelievable some ppl:(:(.

     

     

     

    Faction cars is on of the things that make the game what it is, however it would be more interesting if you could use all the cars in the mission, so just take your oppositions car.

    I used to have a G19 keyboard, if i remember correctly they have custom apps for the lcd screen on the keyboard. there were not only logitech apps but users/owners could create their own G19 apps for tracking ingame data and so on. Tryed some of these app years ago for ventrillo and wow .

    Not sure if this may cause a problem with apb , but it just might. I don't know if other keyboards use certain apps, eitherway good luckl on the troubleshooting and hopefully you find the problem so you can play again.

    Same here, bad hitreg while some players kill you in 5 shots from their secondairy at almost 100m range without missing one shit the entire mission.

    What is going on here? 

     

    There used to be server problems , but never this bad.  You see some players move at 2ce the speed of others. 

    What happened to the server prediction, some players deff know how to abuse this, like they use lag switch based software to exploit/cheat due to bad server prediction and latency issues.?

    Let's be honest, LO has invested in and inherited a MESS.  Setting up an affordable and workable PLAN has not got to be easy.  My guess is APB won't be profitable for a little while.  But it does have a chance at being a great long-term investment and quite profitable if they invest in it properly and have the resources to fix what horrible mismanagement has created.  There's simply no way any company could buy this game and have it fixed to "walk through big gates" anytime soon.  It's like an Indie crowdfunded alpha right now.  Nothing BUT hope and promise.  It's going to take the investment and staff that LO has working with devs and designers to accomplish anything... and all this while the psychotic poops keep ddosing the servers... as usual.

    They are a company which just acquired a diamond in a turd.  Right now it's a turd. Tomorrow it's a turd.  Next week, month it's a turd.  Get the picture?  But behind the scenes is a company which has a chance to repair the turdiness and polish the diamond. So moderate your expectations to align with reality, imo.

    Thx for the perspective, it was gone for me for such a long time . Thx Hey;)

    Hi guys,

     

    Let me step in here. I'm not sure how to answer this more clearly than Lixil already has, but I'll walk through this.

     

    1) The first video looks like lag to me.

    It's hard for me to see when Shini was streaming exactly, but I know 4 hours ago we got hammered fairly significantly. NA servers have been on mitigation ever since. We do know that lag and teleporting happens during these cases. Teleporting occurs when a player's movement updates are sent out of order or lost by the server. For the player they move on their client, but the server eventually tells the client to reset in an attempt to sync and get packets flowing properly between the client and server again. A reset teleports the player back to wherever the server's last valid location was. If Shini's last valid location on the server was a spawn point that happened to be far away from the objective, then that is unfortunately, and we apologize for his bad experience in-game. I have already posted the steps we are taking to reduce the lag, and we are following those steps.

     

    2) The second video is definitely speed hacking, but why is it assumed this is a GM?

    We've gone frame by frame in that video, and that's a newb shirt with no identifiable marks. Is everyone on this thread assuming that the first and second videos are tied together? That for some reason a GM would cause Shini to rubberband intentionally to interfere with their mission, and then that same GM became visible and speedhacked past Shini to troll him? I just don't follow the logic being presented here.

     

    3) All GM commands are fully logged on our end so we can review them.

    I am well aware of the big debate over volunteer GMs. We are watching very closely, and in this case I can confirm that Lixil and her team saw this post and reviewed the logs. There was no hint of any GM abuse or speedhacking.

     

    Let me be as transparent as I can on this issue:
    - If a GM messes up, they will be punished and taken off the team. Period.

    - I feel like there is no value in hiding or covering up problems. We own them, take care of them, and move on.

     

    4) Announcements

    This comment on this thread concerns me the most.

     

     

    This feels a bit extreme given that there is literally no basis behind the information presented in this thread.

     

    I have taken great care in what I have announced. Everything we talk about publicly has a plan that is being executed on. I have specifically not announced the BattlEye patch release date, because I can't be 100% certain when that will happen. It's our first patch and we want BattlEye to be bullet proof.

     

    I think Techdev is making the assumption that we had months before the acquisition to plan and get a bunch of work done first. However, that simply isn't the case. We were barely allowed to review code. 

     

    Thanks,
    Matt

    I myself had some realy bad experiences with the G1 staff, indeed my experiences with former owners had not been great, and passing them onto LO isnt fair, i appologise . Pls prove me wrong soonTM.

    Tbh people have loved and supported this game for years and didn't really turn on G1 until long after G1 had turned on itself, firing Neume, releasing Omochabox and Revoemag and basically letting go of the Reloaded staff not long after we got our new contacts.   The game pretty much went south after that and stooped lower and lower and... like wooo low.  yeah... and that's when the community that loved this game hated what was not being done for it... all we had were new joker boxes and a ridiculous amount of FF bans that pretty much devastated the playerbase and destroyed the clans.

    So, it's true LO is kinda slow to make any footprint at all in this game, other than raise our hopes... but if they did nothing, sure the players would be angry, because we have expectation.  But I doubt people would hate LO the way they hated what G1 through bitter negligence did. A company would have to go far out of it's way to earn that kind of bad reputation.

    Personally I think the game plan LO has is very doable and promising... a lot will change once BE is in place, some GMs are in-game, some events are planned, Armas prices are adjusted, and temp bans are in place to reduce the bad behavior, cheating, and yet not create the vindictiveness that led to rage hacking non-stop rerolls that plagued our game.  I think the hope is so high right now, that LO would literally have to just never do anything for us to turn on them. We want them to succeed and they want to succeed.  It's a wonderful partnership.

    As an owner of this game, wound't you want to walk trough the big gates when everyting was in place!?? Instead of anouncing more false hope!!! I'm not saying LO does it, but it feels like that way atm.

    ive been here since the beginning and i don’t know what you mean

    Did you realy experienced our sunday test moments , the fun with the real dev and pr guys like deum and such. making the game into the succes it still is today.

    Then going trough the turnmill that G1 is, seriously they never stoped their fast greed, apb could have been soooo much more, but....the end.

    No offence to the new staff.

    But pls do not anounce stuff untill it is ready, LO had the biggest chance to work things out and walk in with everyting ready.

    Blow us all away with a new anticheat, ..... why didn't LO wait untill everything was up and running and take apb by storm, srry but this feels like G1 trying to milk us 1 last time before shutting down.

     

    :(:(:(:(:(:(:(

    APB is not optimised for multi cpu usage, meaning that apb runs better on 2 cores with high clock speeds than 4 cores with lower clock speeds.

    Also alot mobos have a bios with multiple power saving features that cut core clockspeed even under load in apb. 

     

    I tested it once with a intel I7 4700K , disable multithreading making it basicly a I5 but clocked the speed up , made apb run way better.

    Also disabled the bios power saving features, most games the power saving features are suspended automaticly  but for some reason with apb it doesn't.

     

    This was 2-3 y ago.

     

    All this can be easely googled on how to do with your specific mobo and OS cmd

    What is wrong with going after the sites that sell hacks? They sell programs that hurt the publischer/owners propperty! Pop drops, less income, bad reputation, and so on, thats illegal to me.

    I don't see a difference to somebody vandalising my stuff. 

    Lawyer up and sew their pants off, simple and most effective!
