TheMessiah

Nothing wrong with little hype from time to to time.After all is the thing that kept this game alive all this years-the hope that something would change for good.Especially now when the big waiting is about to end.Although if many of the staff working on the engine go on vacation around xmas(which is normal)maybe this open public test not gonna happen till end of january..

Think the same but also think LO may decide to sell the rest of the game if low numbers continue..

I mean the public OTW test of the engine.Looks like from the last update couple of hours ago all major things are done and we are in mid december right now.So looks very likely the public test to be in january.Soon guys..looks like for real soon this time

I was thinkin about this yesterday.This defending/attackin objectives gets like super dated and kinda slows down the entire game.The team arriving first on point always have advantage.Better every stage to be alternate for crims and enf.Like 1st stage of mission for example enf must defend but on stage 2 they must attack and so on.Otherwise is not fair.I think missions must be changed like this or only last mission stage to stay.Maybe this last stage/entire mission to be 15 min or something like that.I play other shooters and when come back to apb everything feels like in slow motion and is boring plus when u have in mind the matchmaking..like in unbalanced match u run couple of minutes to obj and when arrive-dead and u do the same again.Thats the entire game in many cases

Future matchmaking must be based mainly on kills and deaths ratio.I mean starting on clean to measure from lets say next patch for example.Theres gonna be at least 3 skill groups of players.With scores around 15 kills - 3 deaths,another group around 7 kills - 8 deaths and third group with 3 kills - 15 deaths(for example)Obviously this 3 skill groups of players dont have to meet each other(call it bronze,silver,gold or whatever)This threat/skill lvls have to be hidden probably so players wont start dethreatin.This overall score next to player name right now(mission scoreboard)wich contains also assist,objectives done,medals etc is not very objective.Same must be for premade groups again based on overall score from theyr k/d ratio and such group must be dispatch vs another similar group if available.

LO sold the Brand when theyr BR mode failed which was the main reason they bought the game and nobody can convince me in the oposite.On 1st blog may 2018 among the things they said gonna add to the game on 1st place was new mode.Check for urselfe.Also CEO said when they sold the brand that work on 4.0 is cancelled.No doubt dat will never happen(at least to me)So the future of this game is cleared idk how more clear they can say it.Next year till some point the game will run with new matchmaking,some new contacts and the 3.5 finally done but still nothing big will hapen and population will still be low.Eventually LO shuts down Reloaded or sells it thats true..

No point on gettin back the old matchmaking.New players get farmed on bronze dist from more experienced players anyway Right now one thing must be done urgently.Districts for only new players/new accounts(T dist)Must be invisible for rest of players so they stop making new accounts just for farmin noobs.LO must not even mention when they add it.This districts gonna be only till player reach Rank 25.Thats the 1st 3 contacts(u max 1st auto when enter mission dist and the other two are with 10 ranks each one in finan and the other one is in waterf)Thats how new players will learn the game and not leave immediately cause gettin destroyed right away Another thing for right now-remove completely the visible threat just leave the Rank and make it blue for enf and red for crims.No point of this gold,silver etc.Players only gonna stop playn when see whats goin on

New players/T districts(new accounts)first 25 ranks(first 3 contacts)after that bronze,silver and gold threats and free for all districts where matchmaking is off.But we need more players to work

if Riot returns like i suggest here - no problem

CEO said that after engine upgrade voIP will have massive upgrade.Btw if u go to vivox site u can see they have app called overtone(similar to discord)from couple of months(still in sort of beta dou)https://www.vivox.com/gamers

all 17 players can start the action again

besides apb i play warface and pubg lite..im bad in all and im lovin it...

i mean i dont have purchased premium running..had in run this free 3 days for the contest.Thats why everybody must get free premium for this days servers was off.LO said just for the 1nce purchased premium and have it runnin

Free premium for the time server was off..it will be some hours/days after all.If LO confirm that here on forums-people will chill the fk out for 1nce

So after this update jericho will be gone and instead east and west NA districts will be added?Citadel stays the same for EU but renamed..something like that?

Little after that LO will sell the rest of the game so dont worry about the complainers..

this sht have no end..no wonder this "shut it down" topic become so popular..people start gettin sick

dey can shov dat finger dey know where..

after nov 25 we get this new threat districts for the new matchmaking or this will happen later?

Have no chance in this contests.Why dont u make monthly lottery or some wheel of luck thing where we all have chance to win this rewards.Like..each player have to log in 1nce a day and win at least 1 district mission and 1 FC mission to be choosable every end of the month when u pull the winners.Somethin like that can be cool.. p.s. this outfits players make(top 3)can be added to JT store or even armas so bad designers like me can have somethin cool to wear

looks like screenshots from gta 3 or vice city

Main reason why this game stuck in time was the decision RP/G1 to bring apb to consoles(one of the main mistakes RTW made)specially when they knew dat they dont have the amount of people and resources to run all versions.If they had focused only on 3.5-right now we gonna talk for completely different things(probably we get to 4.0 till now)PC is the only they had to work on.Instead of that they start building this consoles and meanwhile the game died. After theyr version of BR for apb failed-they sold the brand.Theres no mercy in this things is just business.Forget how nice and polite Matt and the rest are.U ll see when time comes..and is not far(hope im wrong)

Same but soon i think dat "alive" may change.My prediction is dat after engine upgrade,new contacts and this new threat districts-still game /pop not gonna increase much and LO will sell rest of the game(APB R)and thats the finally.I expect all dat to happen till mid next year.Just my prediction lets see what gonna happen...
