You forgot to calculate bloom. I encourage you to go ingame, stand 10meters from the wall and shoot with OCA whisper and Colby .45 AP, you will see that OCA bullets fly everywhere and .45 AP are almost dead accurate. And that is without spraying. If you spray, which obviously you are doing with the OCA, bloom and recoil will make you miss shots. Your numbers mean nothing buddy, it's not translated to gameplay at all.

I'm pointing out a flaw in the game and your response is that I should quit the game instead of bringing up some valid arguments that could improve the game? It's clear that you have no interest in having a healthy discussion, please refrain from further commenting in this thread.

They were not nerfed? You be rambling non sense. Indeed you are reiterating my point, it were good times when there was a wide range of secondaries that everyone was using instead of just this single one weapon the Colby .45 AP. Who said I wasn't using it? I literally said in my post EVERYONE was using it, including me.

You are completely missing the point. You almost never hit ALL of your OCA shots when spraying due to spread/bloom, whereas it's extremely common to hit all your 5 shots from the .45 AP. Let's say you hit ALL of your shots. Under this very unlikely but ideal scenario the .45 AP 0.8s TTK is 100ms off the OCA's 0.7s TTK which proves my entire point. No secondary should be even near the TTK of primary CQC weapons. The more likely scenario is that you miss a shot or two from your OCA, making it on par or even worse than the .45 AP. Compare this to the legendary secondary weapon OCA Nano, which has a 1.05s TTK. This weapon is a lot better balanced for a secondary weapon as it's clearly outmatched by the primary weapon OCA.

I would appreciate some discussion with valid points instead of just saying "The .45 isn't the problem this game has." Which is the exact problem I am highlighting, it has no weaknesses. You can't fix matchmaking with a low playerbase. You can however easily fix the weapon. No secondary weapon should be as strong as a primary weapon.

Since its release every single player uses the Colby .45 AP as its secondary and there is no reason to ever pick a different secondary. It can be used as a main weapon to dominate over other CQC weapons. It has a TTK of 0.8 seconds and most high level player can easily hit those 5 shots within a second. Not to forget it's very accurate at medium range as well. You are no longer vulnerable from close range if you are using a long range weapon or explosive weapon, so as long as the Colby .45 AP is your secondary because you can still relatively easily dominate over shotguns and oca's rushing your bum. I would love to see other secondary weapon being used such as the Obeya FBW, Oca Nano, Showstopper or Joker RFP. In my opinion this weapon ruins the game in its current state. The only thing that needs to be done is to lower its damage slightly so that it becomes a 6 shot kill to match the TTK of the Obeya FBW (1 second).

Can we just switch back to Easy Anti Cheat? BattlEye is not doing a great job... I've been running into the same group of cheaters on a daily basis; low level golds running DMR with Hunting Sight 3 with the most obvious wallhacks ever going on 15-20 killstreaks against max lvl golds They're not even hiding it anymore since they know they won't get banned by BattlEye

Today I spend 30 minutes literally spam clicking 'Join District' on the only district that is open for me... It has been suggested since the beginning of time, please add a Join Queue. The weekend is the only time I can play and stuff like this completely wastes my time...

Anybody else know a possible solution to the GarbageCollector frame drop issue?

Yes, the FPS drop happens when the RAM get's cleaned by the garbage collector. It usually goes from 2.4GB to 2GB (clearing 400MB)

Yes, but the GB ceiling is never reached, so the second option has no influence. It's just the timed option that removes the garbage every X seconds that causes the FPS drop.

I've tried playing around with the numbers, it does seem to be the GarbageCollector that's causing the FPS drops. If I increase the number however, the FPS drops are more impactful (longer). And if I decrease the number, the FPS drops are more common (but shorter). I can't seem to find a sweet number though, as both are not the desired result.

How do I delete my comment

Anybody got a fix or suggestion?

Reinstalled the whole game, reinstalled BattleEye, monitored my system for potential strange hardware issues without any success... The last patch simply just broke something which I can't fix

It has nothing to do with my system, as I play other CPU/GPU intensive games without any stuttering. And this issue has only been present since LAST patch, not before it.

I scan my system weekly with various anti malware software. I also use an anti virus which is always active. This issue was not present before this recent patch (BattleEye was already enabled before this patch). So this leads me to believe that this is not related to BattleEye as I had no issues prior to this patch. I still get these freezes in social. (they are less frequent and shorter though)

Since the last patch, every 20 seconds or so my FPS goes from 80 to 0 freezing the screen completely, which lasts for about 3 seconds. These FPS drops mostly happen when in combat, which makes me die a lot and is very frustrating. Anybody else here has the same issue or know how to fix it? Thanks

If all of this doesn't work, try restarting the explorer. exe task in your task manager

When ingame in fullscreen windowed mode and the taskbar is visible, press Windows+D. After getting put back to desktop, maunally click on APB on the taskbar. This always fixes it for me whenever I have this issue.

He already reinstalled the game, so I think it has to do with the client sided BattleEye, not the one in APB folder

Try going to C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\BattlEye and delete every file in that folder. Once you start APB again it will ask for re installation (might also be worthy to disable anti virus during this) Hope this helps
