If you dislike something, reply to it and say why you dislike it. If you dislike it a lot, call the person who said it a fornicating baboon. There you go, dislike button replaced.

Because they're twats. Anything else is a bullshoot excuse. People can go on about small population and matchmaking, but this was also happening when we had 4 - 5x as many players as we do now and there was enough for players to get matches in Silver district. I never did it and I'm nowhere near the top of the Gold food chain. There's been literally 100s of Golds in this game who can kerbstomp me yet I never felt the need to intentionally drop threat to avoid them.

Dethreating.

Does he even need to delete it? Surely if he closes down the AHK software when he wants to play APB there'll be nothing for BE to detect and kick for? OP is either really dumb / stubborn or is using macros to cheat. BE doing its job either way.

Yeah, didn't they say that APB runs at a loss currently?

Considering it has far superior handling and acceleration from a standing start than the regular Vegas, I expect it'll still be a better car even with this hp nerf.

Has to be some trade off for the fact that the 4x4 is a much faster car than the regular Vegas in any situation other than driving in a straight line.

4x4, Pioneer and Espacio getting HP nerfs? *Dusts off ALIG*

Wait, so you're telling me that no more bugs or issues will crop up opening up the Beta to more players than are available for SPCT? Sure why does anyone bother with an Open Beta then? Just go straight to release from Closed Beta. Shouldn't be any problems, clearly. Think for more than a second.

Any change to rewards, either boosts for being in higher threat districts or penalties for being in districts lower than your threat level, won't matter a fuck since most players left are max rank with tonnes of money and don't need the rewards.

If anyone wants to cry about it being a stress test, don't bother trying to log in and leave it to people who actually want to get in and give grown up feedback.

"Baw! My crutch guns aren't an ez win anymore!"

Have to agree considering his main opposition is a walking, talking cadaver.

What sort of drugs are you taking in order to believe that? Cos they must be good and I want some. Most people who cheat know full well that it's against the rules and they can be banned for it, if caught. They just don't think they'll get caught.

I said at least 4 years ago that threat should be hidden and auto-join enforced to put people with broadly the same threat as each other. This would result in: - More difficulty dethreating since you can't track your threat loss, or intentionally join a Bronze district once you've gone from Gold to Silver - Less point in intentionally dropping to Green threat so you can show off your R255 Green symbol as some class of achievement - Less threat 'obsession', such as giving up before a shot is fired, Gold players trying to remove Silver players from their team etc. - Better in-district matchmaking Sadly, I think the playerbase has declined to the point that enforcing auto-join isn't viable anymore, but hiding threat is still an option. Obviously, hiding threat without auto-join would require removal of district segregation, since you can't see threat. We'd still possibly achieve nos. 1 - 3.

PC Part Picker puts it at about €2500. Not an exact figure without knowing what mobo and case, and exactly which brand of SSD and liquid cooler, were used.

ALIG is most pro weapon in APB.

You're welcome. Glad I could be of service.

For the purposes of data input, the forum treats "10" as 1 followed by a 0.

Yep, gonna lay off trying to rejoin for a bit. As more characters get copied over it should free up.

Probably most of the game's active population is trying to join at once, can't say this is exactly a surprise under such circumstances. Good stress test for the login servers. I got as far as entering a district before it hung there.

I'm on 'retrieving characters'

It is actually trying to contact the login server though, so that means something is active. I suspect pure numbers are overloading it.

APB Tourettes. We've all had it at some point. As NoobQueen says, you should try uninstalling if you want to enforce a break on yourself. Sure, you might end up re-installing in a bout of nostalgia and poor impulse control but re-installing will be an inconvenience and a time sink, and you're could just as likely end up making a new account if support let you delete your old one, as you are to reinstall if you delete the game. I suppose if you really wanted to, you could make a new email account, see can you associate your APB account & its recovery options with that email. (idk if they let you do that easily cos of account selling / stealing). Then if you can do that, change the password for both your APB account and the email address you've now linked to it to random keystrokes that you couldn't possibly re-produce (something like: aklshgo[ashgl'asngjap'stgu-81= 9) to lock yourself out. There's a chance you could get it back via support at some point in the future, but it's quite possible that you'd lose it permanently. Definitely try uninstalling it first and see does that keep you away without losing all your progress.

We'll only have Asylum and Breakwater Marina and Asylum's always been 20 players per faction. I can't remember if they ever changed Breakwater's limit, but given it's a more passive district I don't imagine having more or less players there is going to tell us much.
