TheMessiah

oh i see ok thx for the info

I was thinkin about this for baylan like 1 briefcase in crims main spawn and 1 in enforcer main spawn(thats how starts)Goal is to score more points by holdin on both items most time untill time runs out.But i guess they cant add more modes right now to Baylan cause of the engine work Btw what about adding deathmatch in asylum rotation of missions?I mean FFA(solo all vs all)Think about it after the engine upgrade..we dont have such mode in the game right now(actually the gun game event was FFA)

LO had to do something with the threat and overall with the matchmaking the past 2 years and not waiting for the engine upgrade and the left behind unfinished phasing by G1.I think this is the biggest mistake LO did so far(one of the few but significant)O dou they was diving in unknown waters taking this game in 1st place so yea its kinda understandable

Today silver waterf. EU was full 40vs 40 at least 1 district.Its sunday so is normal.This with resetin the threat is good idea but with the lower playerbase right now is kinda worthless activity.This are my suggestions what to do now anyway.Kinda radical but if you think about it..

the tedious unbalanced missions and the slow paced gameplay will remain dou..thats why im suggestin the 2nd part(or something similar if they can came up with)

indeed..bronze district is full with max ranked silvers(plus many gold dethreaters)so new players get destroyed anyway

Is not.NA server is dead from what i see on forum and EU is following right behind.Right now silver waterfront is dead(like was 1st in NA)and next is financial.After that another big chunk of golds which not gonna dethreat-gonna just leave the game and short after that the entire game will collapse.So game needs some alternatives to this missions idk if gonna be some mode where you can also earn exp. and progress npcs or something else but we need changes and fast.Game not gonna last till 2.1 final release thats months away(if not a year)

Citadel is also dying u cant do sht.Btw this topic is for social(general discussion)

First i want to be clear that i respect all the changes/balancing LO is making to the missions which gonna be even more important in near future(especially after 2.1 engine final release when the game will fill up with players)I dont want to disrespect theyr hard work.Thats been said - right now with the playerbase decreasing so much and players cant even get matches(especially on NA)we need some radical changes and i think i figured out the solutions.In three steps: 1st Remove threat segregation (both player and district threat) With 530 players in peak hours i saw yesterday - last thing we need is this threat separating the playerbase even more.Plus is important step leading to my next suggestion.. 2nd Remove all current missions.Faction Deathmatch like the only mission I know sounds crazy ill explain where im getting at.The Deathmatch mode becoming the only mission npcs gonna give to players after they press K.Faction deathmatch(40 crims vs 40 enf. where you see rest of players on the map)Time limit lets say 15 minutes.All mission objectives gonna be removed(and other mission stages)so experience and money obviously must be recalculated.In result we gonna get more "open up" gameplay on the entire map,more fun and kinda more fair games because always on both sides theres good players.Also new players not gonna need special tutorial(current must stay)and other stuff to know what to do after they enter mission district.After they press K - npc give them the mission with name"Eliminate Them All!!"(description can be added ofc)and they will know what to do after see all the red players around the map.Now the last step.. 3rd Current mission objectives - like separate activities Im not sure if thats possible but if is-can be great.All current mission objectives done by crims and enforcers:ram raiding,graffiti painting,satelite hacks,breaking windows,burning cars etc - can be added to the activities players do outside missions(mugging,delivering cars,ram raiding shops)Activate if not all-most of this objectives so this way players will have more things to do when theyr not playn the main mission.Thats a way to add some extra game content to the big maps(also keep upgrading the equipment)Not only enforcers but this time crims must also be able to witness because theyr in war all around the city after all.This objectives/activities must also give experience and money so more work here yea.. Overall thats my suggestions.I think we can stop the playerbase "bleeding out" this way.In result we get more fun gameplay on entire maps,avoid the super unfair matches,no forcing to play in some camping spots plus extra game content outside of the mission and the player to choose freely how to play the game. After the 2.1 engine final release when the game function more properly - we can go back to the normal missions(when we get more players)So thats my ideas pls be open minded to them.Some work must be done if you decide to implement this changes thats for sure.Ok thats it thx for the attention

Indeed theres no such loadout.Haters gonna hate no matter what.If your not "bot" you gonna be "lagger" or somethin else they will think about next week..

my sh*t?this game is one big sh*t for 7 years now and LO decide to taste it so i dont see our fault here..

wtf hes talkin about..anyway population keep dropin so this is indicative how well the game goes I guess..for 2 years even social and asylum which the "horrible" G1 almost finished-still running bad.So expect the final release of all maps not before spring of 2021(if ever happen) gonna be for long cause from september theyr lockin everybody once again

you mean 85%

dat yes

Threat and threat districts must be removed for NA server then.No point of keepin it when players cant get matches.Gonna be unbalanced but better than dead.Btw is possible to remove the threat districts and keep the player threat?So player threat/matchmaking to keep working on a district which is free for all..

next step is FaceIT maybe?no idea but CEO said that BE is temporarily if im not mistaken

14 months ago looks pretty good to me.. now how stable will run with players is another story..

2020 and this people still exist..

"game performance" and "poor matcmaking" especially the 2nd.Also the lack of new game content and this 3 things in deadly combo lead to low/decreasing population(not only this factors ofc but thats the main) p.s. game perf. and server perf. are not the same thing btw

In the next few months(actually a year)an economic crisis of unprecedented proportions is looming so APB will be your last concern believe that..

finan/waterf not gonna be finished in next couple of months so i dont see 2.1 final release in 2020-simple..and im not complainin just it is what it is

I was thinkin about this things long ago.All this missions with theyr objectives,campin spots and just slow paced gameplay may not seem very atractive to many players in future.LO better think of plan B about mission districts like new mode similar to Riot but well maded.Maybe some team deathmatch on entire map with groups of 4(able to see the other players)or groups of 4 elemination match(1 life each member)LO must think how to progress the npcs with the new modes.Also not bad idea to think about some deathmatch in Asylum(FFA)-would be great.Idk this missions feel super dated and frustratin especially for older players like me.Just the pace of the game is too slow..every mission is at least 10-15 min. can go even above 20 min.Too much wasted time

yup indeed thx

I noticed that for a few days this pinned topic is missing whys that?

what is rng..
