Considering the game's history, it's probably true. This game historically has had so many things client-sided that... really shouldn't be. It's one of the very few things G1/RG did right back in the day, was shifting those kinds of things over. Who's to say they didn't miss a thing or two that can be exploited nowadays though? Game isn't exactly a great example of being coded well, after all.

The fact that a certain Russian on Jericho is still actively playing (among a basically endless list of other blatant examples), shows that that entire post is nothing but empty words. Little Orbit has consistently proven over the years that they have no intention of actually doing anything at all about the negative behaviors in this game's population.

Weird things you have seen happen in game.
Hexerin replied to Y2Venom's topic in General Discussion Archive
My first thought on seeing that scoreboard was Queen referencing how matchmaking still to this day ignores threat levels, putting threats more than one tier apart in the same match. Interesting to see people instantly jump on the dethreat hatewagon right out the gate though, really shows how faux mad people are about it for the clout points. Open Conflict districts were around for years, more than enough time to get multiple characters capped from creation. Especially if you had friends to join you on the other faction to speed up the process. -
A good idea that was implemented in the worst possible way. Also, still not fixed despite said fixes being very simple.
-
Good luck getting anyone who hates furries to accept that.

Personally, I want the reverse to how sprinting currently works. Sprint by default, but can hold the key to slow to running. Walking still locked behind the toggle as it already is. As far as crouching is concerned, toggle crouch is fine. In this type of game, hold crouch would just cause the same kind of issue as current sprint does. I'd like the option to be there for others who prefer it though, never hurts to have options.

Imagine supporting AMD, a company that refuses to support their own hardware with even the absolute basics like a control panel and driver updates.
-
They are at the bottom of the front page, but are not showing up in the main banner nor on the relevant sub-pages. ARMAS seriously needs to be redesigned from the ground up. It's like trying to navigate the horribly jank websites of the 90s.
-
Very nice! It's much easier on the eyes looking at the main info panel. If I had one critique I'd put towards this, it'd be the following tweak: Don't change the blue line's horizontal location, but shift (expand?) the red line over as indicated. Without seeing the end result, I feel like halfway would be enough (hence the second red line's position). The expand button doesn't need to be so big, and this would allow a bit more space for the item list's item names (as some item names can be quite long).

What weapons are functionally similar to the STAR?
Hexerin replied to Reprimand's topic in General Discussion Archive
Haven't seen my Volcano in years. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ -
As others have brought up, a button to collapse the filter and item list sections would be a reasonable alternative. Ideally with an option/toggle to have the collapse be default behavior. Right click -> View Image This is of course assuming you're using a proper browser like Firefox, and not subjecting yourself to self-harm with Chrome. Then again, if you're using Imgur, you're kinda doing it to yourself anyways.

Hexerin replied to Reprimand's topic in General Discussion Archive
To each their own subjective opinion. STAR sounds great to me. It's no DMR-AV of course, but that's not really fair to any other gun in the game. -
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Negative_space As for the extra click, what extra click? Just have clicking on the search button automatically ready the search field for typing. Same as having to click the search field in the cluttered design.
-
Yup, it's pretty much the one thing from it I can't wait to see come to the main/live site. Going to borrow @xiphos's image for a minute: Basically, when looking at a page, it's how it keeps all that search UI nonsense on the left half up. It takes up half the screen space with stuff that isn't relevant. When you click on an item after searching, it should bring up that item's page and remove the search UI. Compare that screenshot to this one: The difference is night and day. The main/live site doesn't have the clutter. The actual layout of information is better on the dev site though:
-
You're probably thinking of APB:Db's dev site. Personally, I would say it's inferior because of all the "fancy" additions making it cluttered.
-
Literally not how it works. If you're seeing this, you're getting false positives on your hits which can mean some mixture of different things (packet loss, abnormal network latency, your PC is a toaster, etc). If you actually land a successful shot, the medspray effect will immediately end. It's how the consumable works, and has always worked.
-
Pretty much this. Any damage taken (regardless of source, can be bullets or even fall damage) instantly stops the consumable's effect. This was actually such a limiting downside that they had to buff the consumable with the doubled regen speed, so that you could get at least something for your consumable use against faster firing weapons (especially in CQC).
-
That's not how it works though, so you might want to consider rethinking your stance.
-
There's still no other game in existence that does what this game does.

Struggling with Raptor 45 Vulture

You are definitely in the minority with that opinion. -
Struggling with Raptor 45 Vulture
Hexerin replied to Reprimand's topic in General Discussion Archive
The silencer mods were introduced before tracers were disabled. Back then, tracers were a dead giveaway to your exact location, so hiding them gave you a pretty nice edge when shooting at people from mid to long range. Tracers will return with the engine upgrade, so silenced guns will get their strongest benefit back. -
Struggling with Raptor 45 Vulture
Hexerin replied to Reprimand's topic in General Discussion Archive
For the ARMAS / unlocked Raptors, there's a few different options that work. I personally recommend running Cooling Jacket 2, it's given me the most consistent performance across many sessions with the guns. For the legendary Raptor, the only correct option is Mobility Sling (as that's the entire reason it's so much better / more desirable than the ARMAS / unlocked ones). -
There's... literally no downside to this kind of system, while having a bunch of upsides (primarily backend stuff, but noticeable to the end-user if they're paying attention).
-
They definitely did do some work, of some description. We have actual proof that they did some map redesign work, as the updated Social District (which we were able to explore during LO's open betas) was basically identical to the Social District screenshots G1/RG shared back in the day.
