    Wow I love the early feedback on this thread; it's just a few people who've only posted kneejerk reactions and nothing else. Talk about a discussion.

    Ok? Let's do small comprasion, amigo.

    Anyways. Nah, I don't agree OP, but I'll actually explain my reasoning instead of trying to preserve the apparent "sole" of APB. Those empty districts are probably using next to no resources. I'm betting APBs servers have to be a little strong to deal with some of the things like the customization and all the entities in a district to the point that spinning down a few servers probably wouldn't really matter much. (On that note I wonder if APBs districts are like... virtualized servers or full on spin ups?)

    I don't see how empty servers cause unstability? They just make space for players to join avaliable and if there are none, servers is just going idle. Second thing - I see gold and green servers constantly rolling some players - sometimes more, sometimes less, sometimes just one - but still it's population.

     

    Nice reasoning, surely "nobody" before said anything about that.

    I don't think the crummy AI is really taking up much resources either, or not as much as you might think. Like yeah, it's just another huge clump of entities to manage, I'm sure disabling them would free up some resources, and possibly more than spinning down empty districts, but I can't imagine enough to improve game performance. On top of that, I wouldn't want a pedestrian-less game, even at the cost of latency. (But honestly, I don't have lag issues like everyone else in this game. Count myself lucky I guess).

    Mugging is actually role... So yeah it's GREAT loss. Also AI is very simple with only few visible response - Walking along path, running away if player/players is near in certain conditions, being action object and as destructable object. With that logic we might as well remove all small objects...

    But I'm not a dev, I don't have access to the resource usage.

     

    What do I know.

    Your reaction surely isn't "kneejerk". You know nice insider look and all.

    FC servers are already brimming full each day and you want to make them even more packed?

     

    Yeah, no.

    Garbage suggestion which would just hurt users even more.

    The reason why no one barely said anything when Tiggs was around because back then Tiggs and other power abusive GM's would BAN anyone who offends them... And thats the reason why my main was banned in early 2016. So i'm sure others would wanted to but knew that anything u do against a GM or CM can get u banned 🙂

    But then again no reason to eat on LO since LO did more than G1 did ever with the game

    I got banned for being vocal too I guess.

     

    I mean remove moaners, surely problem will fix itself that way...

    video is ooolllldddd look at the date. it is only professionalcrybaby that is b1tching really because that is all it does. As other have stated, back when it was tiggs g1 all criticism got you a ban and was deleted. It is not that people were not pissed, its just that you could not talk about it.

     

    And again... Video is from 2014 it is not new. It is just a ploy for shitgamer to startup more b1tching.

    Didn't even noticed. Oh well.

     

    I guess shame on OP then.

    when you get back into this game, it's hard to keep yourself from rushing in or to stop yourself from throwing yourself at objectives knowing you'll die.

     

     

    Just don't let anything get to you and play defensively. A loss or a death doesn't really affect you negatively

    Also contrary to popular belief playing "decent" isn't bad.

     

    Sometimes I miss people who would just play "decent". 😕 You know so I can defeat them...


  5. 1. Lay off game for a while, you might be tired of it - and contrary to popular belief, you only get better to certain point if you play long enough... after hitting that point you only become much worse over time (probably due being tired of that game).

     

    2. Change something in gameplay - find some gun you find fun in using for example. And i don't mean easy gun... maybe it's other way around. Maybe you need some tricky gun to use.

     

    3. Find some decent group - Lone wolfs always got it harder. Speaking from experince here.

     

    4. Try different strategies - Sometimes all what is needed to defeat enemy is head. Heading directly might work on some but how about ambushing, flanking or trapping of enemy?

  6. Well... it doesn't exactly work like that.

     

    Sure, you will unlock kits which are part of contacts unlock route (like kits for Packer Ceresco along way) - but they will be only for cheap and mid-price cars.

    If you want kits for expensive cars and for free - I would look up Joker Distribution and Ophelia which sells all kits for expensive cars. Although you will need joker tickets for them.

    Also first spawn on district is always free, every next will cost 100 APB$.

  7. I understand impatience and anger but what I don't understand is taking it out on new developers. This situation from what I'm aware was going on for 2-3 years and G1 done almost next to nothing to stop it. Meanwhile LO takes over, with zero knowledge of problem and borks it up but then eventually fix it at least for time being and some smart streamer instead of shittalking previous owners (which have A LOT OF SINS), shittalk current management. Why you all sit so quiet like mouse under broom when Tiggs was around huh? There weren't any problems back then? Suddenly LO shows up and it's picking up time? Give them year at least for any judging - APB situation is not apply and go... especially taking how server problem might be actually in-game related.

  8. Sure. On range it will win if both will be standing like idiots in open and exchanging shots from far range... But new STAR is more mobile. New STAR is also more forgiving, with STAR LCR you can't just miss and with STAR you can miss half mag and still kill with other half. And then STAR LCR also have problem of very slow firerate... In many conditions new STAR just outshot STAR LCR. In comprasion to all ARs widely used Star LCR is just simply outclassed wide and far too.

     

    I would consider ISSR-A faster than Star LCR honestly.

    Well they hacked me right out of the game, got dc'd froze up n now no launcher.  n nobody else is reporting such a problem. so its hackers

     

    Maybe check your computer with anti-virus first before making such bold statements...


  10. My topic got solved in 27 days. Well 27 days of waiting but it got finally solved. So yeah... you need to wait long. Probably somewhere around month is safe bet. So your first ticket should be responded to in about week if they keeping up with tickets per date.

     

    I'm sorry to say it but I can imagine how little people are there and with how many individual problems they need to deal with it.

     

    And usually solutions aren't easy-go. Problem either need to be checked, simulated or something needs to be done about it (research, account manipulation, log check etc.)

     

    Unless you want return of Puck?!


  11. I think around $100k-200k for APB but way more for whole company (G1) - probably around 1 mln $ and i'm not even joking.

     

    While game got bad reputation, it's still a lot of work of some people and usable piece of software.

     

    And company is trademark on it's own + all it's achievements.
