    I look up APB forums everyday and i'm sick and tired of repeated scheme of threads which runs around where people:
    1. Put their problem
    2. Blame LO like this problem came from them
    3. Compare them to G1 all of sudden when in past they excuse me but litteraly sucked their nuts.
    4. Continue to be dickhead yourself in game, deny any changes - even positive ones or be a forum warrior which didn't play game for a while.

    And to qualify. LO got this game for almost 3 months and some of your elements already demand what G1 never done during their few years career with APB.
    Stop being whiny fuzzy bunny on forums - maybe change something in yourself, dunno lay off that cheats maybe? Be newcomer-friendly? There is no ultimate fix for community being toxic other than for community to change itself.
    Majority of players don't even care about forums. They come in game, get wreckt by R255 Gold "Pro" and quit. Let's be honest, majority of players will be around low gold and high silver and most of you drive them out.

    When the game came out like 8 years ago, anything high performance of todays standards didn't even exist yet and would on paper have been seen as extreme overkill, yet with APB you can't guarantee exactly what you'll get out of it because it's not optimized for what we have today. That's why it's not worth building around. I say just get whatever the best is you can get for your buck.

    All this patches throw APB off-course of stability. I mean adding stuff partially on one and then on other engine, putting them working in one game can throw off even most powerful PCs.

    With Nunavut you can try it out on ARMAs. Get in one match and use it up as much as you can during this 30 minutes tho. No second chance.
    Nano... well a lot of videos online but I can explain how it feels using nano. You got zero recoil gun you can aim anywhere you want although it's range is short if you don't aim sight... Doesn't like when you jump but is okey with you running around. Takes a lot of shots to kill and is preferable option if you are LTL enforcer. Can be outshotted by all CQ weapons but if taken by suprise stand chance. Good finisher CQ although there are better options out there (even FBW).

    I would not recommend doing so, since it can cause input lag.
    unless you don't mind that.
    Ugh. Input lag makes some of ultra precise weapons (like sniper rifles) pretty problematic in use.
    Nah. I prefer setup with no input lag, thank ya 😛

    Building a PC around APB is not really a good idea or a solid investment for that matter.
    It never was. But I guess taking how my current PC can handle most games but not APB - any PC build handling APB will be powerhouse against other software.
     
    Thanks for other PC builds, for some strange reason I doesn't allow me to quote more.
    About Intel cheap thermal paste - well there are custom thermal paste on internet everywhere although they cost too.
    About OS, we will see - but for sake of support itself I most likely will pick Windows 10 cause it's only logical move to move to the newest OS.

    No one said intel is not good.
    It's just significantly more expensive. With the current line AMD is up to par with the intel line that is out. You get marginal gains as a normal user with Intel on the current consumer line. Only the top level CPU's of Intel (which are not in the consumer line) give superb performance.
     
    I know. I just said from personal experince i prefer Intel as mainly I got positive experinces with it.

    From what i tested current Apb state works best with 3-4th generation i5/7 and kepler 6th Nvidia series GPUs mostly gtx 660ti it worked absolutely awesome for Apb... If i would be buying setup for apb better wait for u.e 3.5 upgrade then it will be a different story 😉

    Defintely. I wait for U.E 3.5 but still if that not gonna happen... I need to be prepared.

    http://www.logicalincrements.com/ $1000 and above should be fine for APB.
    Hm. Interesting. Although this are typical "handle-them-all" setups. Might have problem with APB while not having problem with others game. We both know APB is pretty unstable.

    i dont get why people trash talk intel, their CPUs are superior.

    Cause of that Intel spectre meltdown controversy.

    Be prepared to dive deep in your wallet for these high end parts.

    CPU: Intel Core 2 Duo E6420 (2.13GHz) or AMD Athlon 64 X2 5800+ (3.0GHz)
    ram: 3 GB
    os: Windows XP
    Video Card: NVIDIA GeForce 7800 with 256 MB and support for Pixel Shader 3.0, or AMD equivalent
    Sound Card: Yes
    Free Disk Space: 7 GB

    Nice setup. But i wasn't talking about APB from 1987. 😛
    Also last time when I checked our current APB needed about 10 GB of free space.

    APB needs tweaking to run on current hardware, my video had problems displaying my blue cars until I put gfx on max
    That I agree on but since I don't see it coming in my lifetime... Well... player needs to improvise as much as they can.

    Btw. I put that build through some virtual tests on some major sites although real world =/= virtual so who knows.

    if you want Intel CPU prepare to pay top bucks
    I'm okey with that. People may still talk trash about Intel but AMD ain't good and never really was.

    TBH, the most simple solution would have been making N-HVR not even shootable during jump and done.

    And THAT nerf I would be okey with.
    No... instead they want to damage N-HVR itself as weapon.

    I'm in stage of making plans for PC build. I have some high-end "handle them all" builds ready.
    I also tested on some friends high-end PCs APB. Results in some cases are suprising. One of builds struggled to play APB (while not low FPS was very unstable)... meanwhile it run new AAA games in ultra at 100 fps. So that rised my question...
    What is perfect build for APB? I look for some good PC build when it comes to quality and price because i'm not millionare and some of this high-end PC builds would probably drive me into debt. 
    I talk components in such form:
    GPU - ?
    CPU - ?
    Ram - ?
    OS - ? (Heard stability of game is lower on Win 10)
    Motherboard - ?
    Cooling system - ?
    Power supply - ?
    Additional components - ?
    Cost - (Just informative and additional)

    I'm sadly in urgent need of hardware change because with current trend APB gonna be unplayable for me in year.
    Also no technical bullshoot. I just know how to check if 1 is 1 or 0 is 0 in binary and how to put PC together (after all it's like Lego, you just put together part and just do cable work and viola... eventually you check if voltage is where it should and it should run - if not troubleshot, who knows faulty new hardware happens)

    1. FC as in Fight Club or Financial? Why do you feel the districts need to be segregated into north/south for enforcers/crims respectively?
    2. I'm confused as to why you feel that contact/starter spawns need to be removed. They aren't used in missions.
    3. This is a bit hairy and could be easily abused by just having someone roam around the outside of an objective to deny enemies from spawning from whatever direction.
    4. Admittedly I've not done a whole lot of fight club (save for grinding during Halloween years ago) but the spawns seem fine. Plus it's FC so chaos is part of the game there I feel.
    5. Other spawns as in further spawns or do you mean on-the-fly new spawn points that pop up when others are red, therefore causing a weird forest of spawn points to crop up?
    6. I believe this was a goofy thing they did to force fast spawns instead of purposefully not wanting people to control where they spawn. I definitely agree this needs to be changed for VIP.
    7. 500m is a bit much. I feel like the spawns during VIP are mostly fine, it just sucks not being able to choose or at least SEE where you're going to spawn in order to communicate with your teammates.

    1. I feel it's the most fair. Both parts got some building from which you can defend yourself and each faction already got starter spawn at this locations.

     

    2. While in action they are alright because they don't force you to spawn among enemies, in FC it often forcefully spawn you among enemy. Especially visible if you try fightclub.

     

    3. Hence why point 4. More spawns, hidden from view of players.

     

    4. Spawns are far from fine as they are. It's just waves of spawning players and then 5 seconds usually it spawn opposition among team because they moved 5 meters away.

     

    5. Additional 5 spawns in different locations. If all are occupied that is.

    6. I don't see problem why not make them spawn fast but give them choice anyway. Also team killed player are not faulty for being team killed and shouldn't be punished at all.

     

    7. I had a lot of VIP missions as a VIP and sometimes experince it as such. You spawn somewhere... you lose protection, you see vegas driving toward you - nowhere to run. Rip. Repeat until failure or success. I don't think VIP missions supposed to look like this.

    Spawn system needs serious rework... the fact that you can in some situation spawn litteraly next to opposition or in line of sight of opposition right now is insulting.

     

    I have few suggestions what should be done:

     

     

    1. Add additional starter spawns to FC - similiar to Asylum where you can at start spawn in 5 places, same should be applied to Waterfront (Whole north should be Enforcer starter spawn zone, whole south should be Criminal starter spawn zone)

     

    OR

     

    2. Remove starter spawns at all (forced spawns at certain locations when you join district or respawn after end of mission usually make you spawn among enemies).

     

    3. Make spawn system detect if opposition can see that spawn or is in some radius of that spawn (like one or two floors above - this situations happen way too often with current spawn system that you spawn one floor under or above opposition).

     

    4. Additional spawn points in action and FC (Maybe spawns in alleys or outside street too? Currently all spawns are too open.).

     

    5. Propose other spawns if conditions from point 3 are not met instead of locking out all spawns in red.

     

    6. Remove forced respawn for VIPs and team-killed - since they often punish VIPs and team killed themselves. They should have normal respawn like others.

     

    OR

     

    7. If you can't get rid of that mechanism - at least make it that this who are forced to respawn where game chooses will respawn as far possible from where they were killed (in case of VIPs at least 500 m, team-kills might be closer). Absolutely disable forced spawn on car spawners (as this both trigger cooldown to spawn in car as well spawn in not so smart places(can spawn half way across map in some random newbie car...))

     

     

    I think that would fix spawn system to at least decent level.

    I also have a question, if I bought pack with ACES RIFLE which is now on my character, can't I upgrade it to account wide?

    You can test it yourself. Go to ARMAs and try to purchase from that account character-wide weapon. Cost should be reduced minus price of character-wide permanent weapon cost. You just should have cost of upgrading to account-wide. If not, well then it's obvious you can't.

     

    Clarification: Never had such concern with my packs so I don't know. I just know how to check it.

    JMB have tendency to be always abused... probably most famous was when Tiggs Boxes were as reward for weekend (Abuse was sky-rocketing and FFA R&D 3 price went down to ground - from 20 millions to 3 millions on average).

     

    Joker Tickets are fine but some veterans might moan because they got all from Joker Distribution and can only lease weapons for it and buy medium ammo deployables.

     

    Weapon skins - sure? But we got only several.

     

    Titles? - Yeah but what title you gonna suggest? And the fact that it gonna be widespread might trigger some ("cause my title is unique 1!1").

    APB $ - Possible boost for all this newbies out there. Veterans moans guaranteed.

     

     

    Problem is how to satisfy everyone with dailies.

     

     

    I'm so up for teamkill event (That was fun... for some time...) but when you actually wanted to do FC you were guaranteed to be teamkilled. Still I had my laugh.

    All this features are planned to be put in console version. G1 didn't put them because they didn't know how. That way it misses death themes, threats (also Volcano and EOL series are currently only legendaries on market... OSMAW and OPGL are leaseable as well - so everything is right when it comes to weapons itself - they are all on console).

    Ever since g1 any game file modification was considered a gray area. Many people manually did some config changes to reduce quality of certain aspects and increase performance (myself included). Basically reducing the quality of the game lower than in game settings menu allowed. And then came the shaders and configs to assist gameplay, which is a whole different story.

    Config modification is totally allowed.

     

    But when it comes to modification of game itself? Well... it's easy backdoor for wallhackers. So sorry.

     

    Although my game would use that FPS boost...

    Well maybe I explain what I meant by broken. I mean that at point blank it got problem with hitting anything (which is strange for shotgun) but does alright at certain range. This usually happens in point blank range when aiming from shoulder (aiming with it or distancing yourself from enemy fix it). Possible register issue?
