Excalibur!

Still doubtful about cheaters... would like to know why they were "improper" and if they will unban players over that year (which some could be genuinely cheating). Oh yes i remember about that threat segregation patch, where everyone cried that they couldnt play with their friends or something like it. Deathreaters would also ruin missions for not playing... Wasnt there a pop drop too? 3million users when apb was fresh... ive been really impacted by this game when i discovered it for the first time. ps: ill land you a thanks when i can.

Gun: none. If you mean looks, ntec. If they ever put silencer to cr5, that would be my favourite gun. Car: Vegas. Funny to handle, fast and tanky enough.

*Calls whole joker not good players for using shotguns* How dare you.

Bluer than you muhammad.

Thanks. I remember this, but i dont remember that threat was hidden when i started playing. Maybe he was talking about apb rtw?

Thats not bad idea, but should be optional.

I really enjoy fc... like i said it should be a nice place for retirement and having a little purpose on it more than jt. If you want still play with friends in action thats no problem.

Thanks for the colouring text, it really helped me reading. I am not sure about that claim of false cheating. I saw a name today that totally deserved it (i really hope that guy was just trolling and used a nick alike). And about threat i am not old enough in the game to experience that, but i am allways in favour of keeping the game as original as possible. If you say that not seeing threats was so good, then it should stay that way. Any older player can confirm this?

Okay.

And it doesnt revolve around you and your low/starters victimization either. See how many damage over the time apb took because people would complain about everything, they listened and tried to please them... how did it end? http://steamcharts.com/app/113400 Yes, because those people get stagnant, they get better items that other starters and will abuse it, like max silvers in bronze playing against other silvers and bronzies. How a player that thinks ntec is op talk about balance? Or if it gets constantly killed with 17fps say that golds should leave any district when he would get problems even with his counterparts... i honestly dont understand your reasoning. I am not trolling and i have no idea what is pain naturally. Take your offenses and acusations somewhereelse. And i honestly want this game floating once again to have fun, and listening to players that constantly find excuses to pinch the boat like it is: "p2w, omg he is so skilled get him in another district, i cant have max rank mods pls do something, free items bls xD, my pc cant run apb please lower the graphics so it looks awful, omg feminine features im so offended (meanwhile we by default have erotic lingerie everywhere), oh no he said gg i feel bad pls ban him, i got killed by ntec pls nerf" etcs.

I am still not sure about what you are talking about. Its been really long time since i joined apb, and started as a bronze, get gold and never felt such thing as elitism or toxicity or any of that stuff. I was focused in the game and to get gold status. I am completly honest here.

Why do you care about elitism? What examples can you give me about changes made by elitist golds? If every change that been added was for the benefit of low skill players and thats what killed the game.

How is a shooter game not competitive? I can't even understand that. Bringing the word toxicity in a thread were there are constructive critics is being toxic. Stop using that word it doesnt benefit anyone and is practically an insult that should be censored. Safe places can be invaded by bad intentioned players, like dethreaters. And it will. Prematch games can be abused too... to farm rewards and stuff. Maybe it was because i just played the game and didnt visit the forums, but before i never seen someone complaining about elitism and the poor victimis that cant play the game and everyone was actually playing the game. And it was filled with people enjoying and focused on it. Caring so much about people that can't or dont want to play the game if you dont modify it to their personal comfort is what i think its harming APB. Now if you tell me that you want to apply these comforting changes to console (ps4, xbox or whatever they are called) to please every player with a huge dose of equality so they can feel back in the kindergarden, i wont opose.

Wow, thats actually the best thing someone have ever told me online.

Let me tell you that matchmaking is broken due the lack of players... give it more time this game is filled once again, some tweaks on matchmaking, better rewards etc. Meanwhile try to enjoy the game as it is and help people understanding it with your current knowledge -you already played 7months, you are not new-.

Thats why we are giving sugestions. Filling with complaints of that kind (using the fucking word every sentence) is not healthy either. Crying for your oponents either -when i already told my little story-. If you have so much issues with your hardware you may find a game you can run... let others enjoy the game. What would you do if you joined a game with no ranks whatsoever? You will be put with skilled people. Example: i started using the pc and i was fascinated with cs 1.5. Joined any server to get destroyed by headshot every single round. I had nowhere to cry, ask for advice, victimize myself etcs. That didnt stop me to learn to play and get to the point that i would be banned from any server even when i never cheated (ofc i was younger and mad gamer... and no, i am not boosting myself). Lets not sensibilize this so much... it may cause more harm.

why not 1vs1 irl?

You may find a game that makes you more comfortable... i allways, since i started, wanted to be gold and play with golds. I played about 500 hours with 300 ping until i could reach gold status. Now you play a few games and you are already gold. You have the privilege to do such thing all the time and you are complaining? This game may not be for you honestly.

Or, you could learn to play? Facing stronger oponents makes you play better and learn from their tactics. Thats what i did when i started as a bronze, then silver and i was really happy when i got gold. Some golds would freaking destroy me in a blink, while i was playing with 300ms because i picked the wrong server.

Why wont they have fun playing the game? How did all we started playing? Action district and getting our characters developed, while trying to grow our skills. Do you see any of that happening? No? Why? Maybe because all that been said upside? Listening to cries is what killed this game. I dont care a noob is not good enough, i care 10 to get into the game and get interested in it and spend time fascinated with the progression, graphics, customization, rewards, the clean game, etc. you name it. Enough bullshoot with crying and equality, to heck with that.

And i thought that it all started with cheaters rekting gold servers; actual golds went to silver interrupting their development; silvers would go bronze to repeat; everyone dethreating; balances issues in the matchmaking; losing more people every time; rebalancing more and so on... but if you say because cheaters were unfairly banned it must be true.

@SalvickI brought cheaters because it would be an extra benefit that i think it should be named. @DopefishYou may be right. It would be nice for people who like it hardcore.

I am beautiful. Or thats what old ladys say anyways.

No? We should let the game roting with people bored and dethreating because someone is worried about epeens stroking. Totally right. Not, pusillanimous. -- I dont like repeating so i quote myself This ranking up to max to access certain maps like fc or the new map they are planning is not bad idea because cheaters would need to spend a huge amount of time to access it (they could be get caught in the way there). Those maps will be cleaner than any map, with no low rank rambos guncoptering or with hilarious scores. It would incentive players to get max rank, spend time upgrading contacts and playing the game while trying to get better and progressing with better rewards in their way to max rank. Being max rank would be like a retirement, to enjoy those paradise maps where you could get nice rewards and be more unique maybe? EDIT: meh, this sounds so good that i would actually rank up my crim, that i never do it because there is no reason for it.
