dats fine maybe too drastic but fine threat must be hidden all the time(the message about changin threat after match must be also removed)just blue rank for enf and red for crims too late for dat many players already spend real money for weapons but why not in future to be added only cosmetics +1 without dat last part

will kill the population even more clans are dead and nobody interested anymore +1 how exactly(scratch the things above)

I doubt the game will jump over 1k players anymore.Not with this pace of work and things happenin which means the matchmaking will always be bad even with the cross district.Other huge problem i see with this game is in its core-the mission system itself.Even if the match is perfectly balanced-the gameplay will always be more frustratin than fun just because of the objective spots in every stage.The team dat will arrive 1st will always have advantage.Plus often the game force u to play in a way u dont want.For example theres objective/location u cant take over unless u change weapon.About how to bring more players-i dont see it except they announce that the game is near to unreal engine 5 upgrade.Not even another big map like financial or waterfront can bring big amount of players.For the end the p2w-it is.If game sells u items dat affect pvp gameplay(better weapons/versions)and u can only get them after long period of time-dats p2w.All the people who said is not-they play this game like forever(plus many of them spend money already)For example for me is not-but i play 12 years and have many JT and in game money

is that the or is testing of the or is something else..

Like he knows what u talkin about.. Anyway i guess LO have everybody(all 3 of them)workin on the new matchmaking/cross dist and thats why nothing new.Btw the game is back to 350 players but no surprise when u make all the updates with such pace

dat title dou

dat was never part of the plan but sounds great

true i get u..dats why they r workin on this new matchmaking/cross dist right now where this premade groups are supose to play vs similar groups(at least in theory)also the voice chat for everyone will be back(soon lol)

i agree with dat.Thats why im suggestin 4 years now for new mode for the big maps like TDM 40 vs 40 or something like dat.But solo missions with current mission system-nobody wants dat

dude nobody wants to play solo missions on finan/waterf districts.Ur the only 1 in the history of this game..

Even another big map like finan/waterf not gonna bring a lot of players.The only thing to do it is another engine upgrade hype-this time for unreal 5.2.But dats a mirage

FC are for solo play.Missions districts are for co op.Maybe if the game had like 1m playerbase-then maybe mission dist for solo players only can be a thing why not..

cant find it..

So i watched the AMA again and after the 64bit update and EAC next step was supose to be to back port the cooked package system from 2x into 1.30 which will improve load times and remove hitches.Why this step wasnt mention in 2023 roadmap?Hes talkin about it here(for next like 40 seconds)

i can kill more players with alig than with medusa actually..but dats cause im bad probably

I dont see what hiddin the threat will impact so much the new players..everybody are better than most of them anyway(regardless visible/hidden threat)In fact new players can be more beneficial from hidden threat just because of fact that some veterans will decide to stay in mission with them and not leavin right away when they see them in their team(like happenin right now in every match) Hes right sry..this maybe makes sense but we also have limited amount of districts now

1st. change:Hide threat.Just blue rank for enforcers and red for criminals.Thats how most times the matchmaking will work better just because of the fact gold players not gonna leave matches right away when see they are about to team with lower threats 2nd. change:Disable factions.Pool of 100 is way better than pool of 50(chance to get better matching x2) These two changes in combo are enough to improve the matches big time With 1st(hiddin threat)u also decrease the toxicity in the game which mostly comes from arrogant golds.All u have to do is makin all threats in 2 colors and remove the message about threat from lobby(when choose character)and the pop up in game when ur threat changes With the 2nd besides u increase the pool double but also make sense.The story of the game says(if u read some mails :p)dat theres competition/wars even inside the factions.Example is Prentiss Tigers and Praetorians(which think about the tigers like some low lifes) To conclude:This changes are easy and not gonna take long to make.This phasing/cross district is probably still months away and who knows what disaster will turn out to be

the next 3 big things im waiting(and most of us) -new matchmaking/cross district -new content( 2 contacts) -new voIP/vivox(yea is one of the big things cause is co op game after all) After the top 2 things-performance and anti cheat-these are the next top 3.Like when..we will get at least the first one around the 13th anniversary of apb?(end of june)

what was this minigame..dont remember

dats easy is even easier to get out of dispatched mission u dont want to play..

Another way to replace current mission system(yes right now is cancer to play this unbalanced matches)Yup im going with he 50 vs 50 thing again but this time-different way(can be even without the faction segregation) TDM(where u see opponents on the map)based on the threat only.What i mean: one mission starts for all right-but u can only kill the player which is ur threat.U cant damage the rest(like in normal dist when ur not in mission) So match starts,u see the rest of ur threat opponents on the district(lets say silvers)and u start engagin/fightin them.Fair fights..and i guess must be 50 vs 50 faction based cause theres can be groups and if u play solo in free for all-u may be outnumbered.The time limit of the mission-lets say 15 minutes and for the reward u get ur exp,money,JT etc from contacts.Easy,fun..u name it p.s. players T can kill and be killed by all threats simply cause they must play one match and get their threat

Yup lets play this GMs minigames where the 1st half of the list(golds and some high silvers)gets the most JT and the 2nd half-gets almost nothing.Cant wait... p.s. Better make for the 13th anniversary of apb(end of june)some 40 vs 40 mode so people can finally enjoy this cancer game.Also another AMA/QnA around dat time is not bad idea so we know whats goin on with the matchmaking and new content(contacts)

omg give this guy hes crumb already..

and make sense..basically the possibility for fair matches doubles dat way anyway still think the best for the game with current pop is to reorganize it to one big 40 vs 40 TDM mission with the exp progress for contacts and all the good sht from missions

Another myth dead.I told problem numba 1 in this game was the anti cheat..wheres the playerbase now when we have new one(still 450-500 players)Or maybe more important is the matchmaking and the lack of new content..nah was the anticheat
