You can certainly toss some of it up to random bloom, lack of tracers, and hit decals/blood splatters/etc being client side to causing a large amount of what are thought to be ghost shots. Ghost shots and hit reg used to be faaar worse back in like 2013. It still certainly happens today but is over exaggerated by a lot of people.

Nope. None at all.

Gamersfirst is technically also the 'platform' and updating launcher and web store and web portal and backend login systems etc etc etc etc etc.

Don't bother vsb. You can't teach these people.

The tutorial should give them a rank 1 or 2 mod as well and force them to jam it in the weapon they choose (but make sure it tells them it is not perm and changeable). -
That place seriously needs a set of stairs at the front of it. Easy peasy fix and actually moves attention to the entire rooftop, not just the little overwatch corner.

I hate that you made a decent post for once and then undercut it with this meme. Why did you betray me like this. -
I like fog and bloom. Just make it a graphics option toggle.

The easiest would be destructible that can just be simply jumped up on then jump off to get to higher ground. With the counter play being you can shoot the items or shoot the player during the jump. A more interesting variations is a series or 2-4 jumps that need to be completed to get somewhere. A mixture of long and high jumps preferable. The issue is they need to be NOT THE ONLY way to get up like some places. Another interesting addition is using a car to then jump on the car then to a spot then up. Which I think APB only really has two of those that are used? Both of which I'm pretty sure are unintentional. The main one being the camera on those stairs in waterfront that you use to get on to the back of the roofs rather than the single ladder and running around the entire rooftop while getting shot. In fact that's a great example of how badly it was done. The camera jump is so far ahead better than the trash ladder route and is the ONLY other accessible way up that destroying/using that camera becomes far more a priority than the intended ladder route. Though a lot of APB rooftops and 'holds' in general just need either more ways up or a better mix of ways up. APB has the ability to provide so many options of movement in play spaces that a lot of games don't get access to. Your basic stairs and ladders are a great foundation. But you can go so far with jumps, vehicle, spawning objects, destructible/moveable objects, etc. Should even let us headboost like you used to be able to sort of do, let me stand on allies properly like CS.

Excuse you? What? -
There needs to be some more jumping options too. Not just ladders and stairs. Stairs are always safe and slow. Ladders are fast and risky. But additional jumping routes are a nice middle ground that also give a huge degree of skill expression. It really shows how big movement is in APB and there needs to be more of it.

I would pay to watch you play/stream/record video.

I think that is one of my favorite parts of APB. That cars are this interesting dynamic cover that almost no other games have. They are not this generic cover everything below the chest and shoot back and forth cover. But have a two dimensionality between the person in the cover and the one shooting in to the cover.
-
So the game comes down to just gamesense and non aiming abilities. Of which golds have more of and continue to win more against lower skilled players? What is your point here?

This was partly an issue that G1 went down the road of too. TTK was lowered not on purpose (besides the main switch from RTW), but because they would continue to buff weapons more than nerf weapons. And this compounding on itself over years moved the TTK lower. Widespread buff to everything like Frosi implies is just yet another addition to this lowering of TTK. -
Straya yeah struth mate go get a check at that definition and get that up ya duff oi righto swear on me mum you drongo Plus mod merged my supposedly 'discriminatory posts' so I guess they are either fine with it or it's not discrimination.

Top 10 is a little slim sample. If you go to at least the top 50 it is about even for pvp and pve games, and most have mixed modes. -
There is already a tool in place. It is the mute/ignore/block function.

The real difference in your post is having an actual pve gamemode with bots designed around that content as opposed to jamming bots in a pvp gamemode that are trying to mimic the role of actual players. -
I think you need to go check what the definition of discrimination is. Never said I'm superior to Europeans. Also I'm not even American, so nice job. Just don't wanna play with Europeans. Merged. The eurobads fear the non-american americans.

Having a higher ping affects the person with the higher ping more than others. Yeah, the people shooting them might every now and then see a little lag, but it is pretty minimal. It is usually packet loss or EXTREME ping that makes the people impossible to shoot. Playing with high ping causes even worse hit reg, you get shot around corners/behind cover, have delay on your driving and have to predict vehicle movement, delay on a lot of input actions like kicking doors or starting objectives, etc. -
I'm not being discriminatory.

Just want to make sure people know. Have a conversation. Be social. Like what forums are made for.
