    i know 😕 but there's lots of streamers and youtubers that have these shaders and modified files as well and they're not banned yet

    thanks ❤️ 

    So let me get this straight, if someone uses something that is against the rules you can do it to? These streamers and youtubers you are talking about are maybe not banned just yet, but this doesn't mean they are not gonna be in the near future.

    I mean... Yeah. 

    That's literally how the game is played. 

     

    And I'm not saying matchmaking always gives fair matches, I'm just saying your example isn't a good one. 

    If you are really going to say this was fine matchmaking, then what's the point in having bronze servers. 1 color, everybody plays against each other, the old and the new... i guess this would be fine as well by your standards. 

     

    APB can't really get any new players. Silver is to easy to achieve, new players of course join silver districts and have to play against veterans. After couple of missions they leave and never come back. Everything is fine, matchmaking is fine

    If those were actual new players and you still held your own, even while a man down... then how is it unfair exactly?

    You didn't read what i typed or just ignore it. What part of ''we had no big resilience in the beginning of the game'' didn't you understand? On the last stage when their team regrouped we couldn't do anything. I already said the score is irrelevant. I can equip NFAS, corner camp and get a lot of kills. Does this mean i am a good player?

    scores look pretty even though, especially considering you were apparently a man down

    and remember, gold 1 and silver 10 aren't very different

    Score is pretty even because the other team had a hard time catching up with us at the beginning, we made most of the objectives with no resilience. But at the end in the last stage (capture 3 points) we had no chance. Sure gold 1 and silver 10 aren't very different, but you are clearly missing the point. New players don't know the map so well, same goes about weapons and other stuff. You can not justified that the matchmaking was ok!

    Two things:

     

    1. Trainee is not a threat level.  It just means the game has not calculated their skill level yet.

     

    2. Matchmaking does the best it can with what's available.  When you have a low population and everyone close to your skill either already in a mission or not ready, you're either gonna get new players as opp or no opp at all.

    I removed the names and the scores since they are not relevant, except one..

     

    Trainees are not the only players who get bad matchmaking, low level silver players do to. These are the players who are also new to the game but already obtained silver rank! The game actually started as 4 players on our team against 3 on theirs (which was i guess... decent matchmaking). But what happened next, they could call backup and so they did. WHY, where is the logic?

     

    Now on why did i leave the score of one of the player on my team visible, because that was his actual score. When i asked him why is he not playing, he answered he's not good enough to play against the opposite team, so we had to play 3 vs 4! I told him to go to bronze after the game, he didn't know how to do it (of course i explained it to him). I meet a lot of low level silvers when i play solo, and a lot of time when i tell these players to go to bronze they ask me why would they do such a thing if they are silver. I have to explain that silver play in bronze and gold play in silver district. When they ask me why is it like this.... i don't have an answer to this question.

     

    Matchmaking sucks

    For all I know this is not tolerated as it uses shader edits that go beyond of what is permitted. (The only shader permitted right now is the "No fog" shader as it does not work like traditional shaders that would require you to turn on bloom.)

    The other day Matt stated they only approved temporarily use of Advanced APB Launcher, anything else is supposed to be a no-go. Since there is no option to remove fog there, how is this allowed? All this constant changing files and not knowing what is and isn't allowed is just crazy. They should pin a topic about this matter and not just answers some person question in some random thread or discord. Not everybody checks and reads everything so i'm sure half of the population doesn't even know about it

    I do agree that messing with game config should be against the rules, but you have to understand that players are using it only because of how badly the game currently runs. I would love to play the game on the highest graphics like i did years ago, but the thing is even on minimal graphic i keep getting stuttering all the time (especially in close gun fights). It's really frustrating to lose fights because of this problem, this is also the biggest reason why i don't really play this game anymore. I tried so many things that players suggested, some things did help a little, but there seems to be no fix to this.

    Anyone who hasn’t logged in their character within the last year will have their name released so that new and existing characters can use it both during and after the merge.

    I am confused, do we have to log on every character? I'm sure most of the players have multiple characters on their accounts but don't play all characters. I mostly play on just one character (leveling him to max rank), some of them i haven't played in more than 1 year

    That is not my nor your decision to make.

    You are right it's not, but banning and then unbanning players is not a ok. Ether give a player temporary or a permanent ban. If players will think that there is a chance of getting unbanned then they will start making threads (like this one) and won't take them so seriously

    I suggest adding a K\D system so that players can play on equal terms

    #SystemKD

    Again not a good idea, especially since there are still so many players who dethreat in this game. 

     

    By playing this game for a long time i noticed three things. Even if you are a good player, it really depends a lot on how good your and the enemy teams are + on the spot where the objective is. It's up to you and your whole team to cooperate and adjust to the situation. Sure one good player can do a lot by himself, but he can't do everything...teamwork is always the key to success!

    This may be a permanent ban , however Little Orbit does reverse bans for those who want to reintegrate into society in a productive and non destructive manner.

    It's up to you if you want to be a better person or not.

    Do you really think this guy deserves another chance? Just by reading his comments i can see he has no remorse for his actions and if he would get unbanned he would definitely do it again. I do know people can change, but i don't believe this one can. Instead of apologising to the community he complains about his ban and states grifing is not a bad thing and that it was not fair for him to get banned in the first place

    I dont now man, if you think a TK and  running people down in a dump truck in a open world action district pvp game is fair grounds for a perm ban then I dont know what to tell you, but lets unban cheaters for a second time, and let the ones we know are cheating go untouched. Oh and while were at it let's not do anything to the other people that do dump truck grief on a daily basis. Dont forget I only tked you one time, the rest was not me. Oh and lets look at pounds stream when the whole server was team killing him, they didnt get a ban. Completely biased and you know it.

    The more you talk, less sense you make. You said multiple times you don't care that you got banned and at the same time you cry and complain about it. 

    As for the players who were unbanned, a lot of them were falsely banned. They probably couldn't determine who were really cheating and who weren't, so everybody got a second chance but hey so did you. You were first temp banned, but you still continued and then what happened?

     

    The drama is real with this one

    not gonna lie, some people look really lost out there sometimes. like they're using a controller or something.

    Yeah i mostly play solo nowadays and most of my gold teammates play like silvers, so what's the point in having gold. Make new players green and other players silver, problem solved xD

    honest question :  Why are you still here on the forums  if you don't care and you are leaving regardless of banned or not?

                                Why not just leave and be done with  it?

    You don't have to be a genius to notice this right...he clearly wants attention and i'm sure eventually he's going to make a new account and start doing the same thing he has been doing for years

    If you check APB Player Statistics you can see average player count per day was only about 100, but i am sure we can expect more. Some players made a new account to play on Citadel, but we should also assume some didn't. If you have bought a lot of weapons and made a lot great symbols, etc....over the years you probably don't want to start from 0 all over again

    Did you expect anything else?  They have to transfer thousands of accounts, that's a lot of database records, then verify after it's done, then test it. Go play something else.

    They have to transfer thousands accounts and yet if we check APB Player Statistics we can see average player count per day is only 100 LUL xD

    I said what i did multiple times now, I guess I should of put in OP, killed cookie one time, got a 5 day ban, then was just doing the typical dump truck routine.

    Yeah because that makes a lot of sanse, i killed many players over the years and never got banned for it  >_>
