Wait, so a guy invited you to group, tked you and...? That's it? Like, how much of your day was wasted? 5 minutes? That's beyond minor. It's not even trolling, it's just Tourette's Syndrome or something.

Well, he "quit" last Friday histrionically complaining that everyone in FC was better than him an therefore hacking.

Unless you were playing for at least 12 hours straight today, you did not see 30 actual cheaters.

Should have a parade.

What I'd do for a burger? Well, I think I'd go to the store, buy some round steak mince, bring it home, season it, shape it into a pattie and cook it.

Could watch this bloke play bass all day. Technique is so clean. Not a single milijoule of wasted energy.

Yes, but only cheap vodka. No Crystal Head for you. And I mean really cheap. It might actually just be water with a dash of industrial ethanol in it.

I rate you 2 Leonid Brezhnevs out of 10 Joseph Stalins.

Damn. What a shame.

Titles post "cant wait for this game to die" Ends post by imploring the CEO to do something. Sounds like you can wait for it to die.

Nah. I don't think I've ever had one worth selling. My STO account might net me a few dollars, but I'd rather keep playing it instead.

I'd expect it to be less than 6000 based on what I see in the game. Couldn't see there being many more than 1500-2000 unique players on Citadel regularly, and it's the biggest server, (unless the Russian server is massive). So I'd say 3-4000 for the whole game. (Could be wrong obviously) Matt's earliest posts in that thread show the number of tickets going up by 800 - 1300 a week. That would be equivalent to somewhere between 20 & 25% of the playerbase making a ticket a week if my read on the overall numbers is about right. Of course, it's very unlikely that everyone playing makes a ticket once every 4-5 weeks on the nose. It's actually more likely that 1% of the playerbase makes 90% of the tickets, and I bet most of them amount to whining about being scammed, banned, being killed by better players etc. etc. tl;dr, a small number of people are probably flooding Support with useless shit. And then about 10-20% of the remaining playerbase put in the rest of the tickets that are legit things to contact support about, that get delayed because of having to sift through shit. G1's support sucked and now LO's is struggling under the volume they have. What's the common factor? The people sending in the tickets.

Do you mean 2014? Cos Green threat didn't exist in 2011. It wasn't put into the game until they stopped showing the graduated differences within a single threat colour (ie. Bronze 1-10, Silver 1-10 etc.). That was at least a year after release, possibly longer.

Oh, so enforced lower threat for x number of missions and then no possibility to dethreat after a certain threat is reached? Effectively a protected newbie ecosystem. Not a bad idea on paper, I'll give you that. But with all the Sad Kens that populate this game, they'd just reroll for whatever number of missions of newb stomping are permitted, and then reroll again. Then again is that any different from shedloads of R255s dethreating all the time?

Diarrhea comes from the Ancient Greek words (via Latin) for "through flowing" Vomit comes from the Latin verb "vomo", which surprisingly enough means to be sick. And no, I'm not any fun at parties.

I suppose it's possible they don't, cos I'm not in the Bronze/ Green ecosystem to see. I don't have an issue that a rerolling vet goes straight in at Gold, though. Shouldn't that be what happens, given our experience? Unless you mean that in a hypothetical if we were all new players with no APB experience, any of us with a properly intact cranium would breeze through to Gold?

That would just make people decide missions are unfair before anyone's fired a shot. "Not that good" is relative. You're still familiar with using the TPS camera to your advantage, you're familiar with the game's movement, the recoil mechanics, the aggressive damage drop off and with the maps. Someone new to APB might legitimately take a lot more than 3 missions to go Silver or Gold. Just cos you're not as good at those things as the best APB player doesn't mean you haven't got skills that a new player doesn't. EDIT: Lacking clarity here. Bronze is an appropriate level for a new or relatively new player. If you or me, as an experienced player goes Silver or Gold on a re-roll straight from Trainee, then I'd say that aspect of the system is working. Threat is not meant to be progress - there's nothing wrong with going Silver / Gold in 3 missions if that's how good you are. Green is just a joke, though. You need to be running at about 3 fps to be that bad.

You cannot know that anyone but yourself never cheated. Just because they didn't cheat whilst playing with you, or with an account / character known to you, doesn't mean they never have any other time. You'd be surprised how long people can hide a skeleton or two in their closet.

Yep, this is exactly what happened. Idk about the other servers, but Obeya had enough Gold population to support TL locked districts. The issue was: "BAW! These quick switching try-hards who run with the item are able to match my running and quick-switching tactics and now I don't win all the time! I want to play against cabbages!" Of course, at the time Obeya had more population than either Citadel or Jericho does now.

Soccer. Also this: I wasn't any good at it though.

There's something seriously wrong with people who play this game.

Because there's a grief truck blocking a crim spawn. That clearly means there's been no GM for 2 weeks.

So, instead of LO having a full development team work on the game, regular roadmaps upon which they invite feedback, a forum for suggestions, the SPCT programme to help them test new content, we should all just get on your discord to discuss it?
