    You forgot something very important, but it's ok, no need to post it because it's against your narrative I guess...

    So let me get it:

    He looked up fairfight rules to know what properly triggers ban.

    He then gives that message after being banned:

    And then totally gets rid of FF because he by per rule got banned by it?


    You do realize it sounds like bullshoot, do you? Pretty sure he looked up FF rules to know what should and what shouldn't ban. And for him to say such thing means he was banned OUTSIDE ruleset.

    His "narrative" sticks.

    If this rule is so very specific that chances to trigger it are thinner than lottery, he knew about it, did what it had to be done.

    Clearly not since someone with zero experince whatsoever in playing APB could trigger it outside ruleset (but with a lot in bug testing).

    And I'd say this was very rare rule to trigger considering majority of players didn't get banned but certain people...some over and over again.

    We don't talk about players banned 20 times for cheating (although FF is known to have "blacklist" of players which were instant banned). We talk about players which were like me: Played properly, got banned like I would use some insane cheats. But hey, it's not only me: (pulled just from front of page) players such as MrAfroGer, Mooke or Snubnose. You can say honestly, here in front of us all - that they were cheaters?

    This really invalidates the entire test...

    But hey, lets keep getting things out of context.

    The only guy who keeps it out of context so far is you. Don't try to justify outdated tool which ran on flags and manual bans as way to function.

    If not for LO, this game would be dead by now and that's fact. I trust their judgement fully.

    G1 had used it for manual bans, and the system and players were doing flagging. They never said anything about automatic to my knowledge. They used FF i think? to ban all those who did the social exploit crashes and such. I think there were only a handful of cases where players weren't listed as "FF Ban" when banned by the end. So im not sure how it could have picked up on you unless it was something manual from another player reporting, or like, facing bronzes all day and  just not missing because they're piss ez to take out and having an inflated k/d and miss %.

    Honestly I don't care what criteria they had in the end.

    Fact is: There were a lot of controversal and unexplained bans.

    If you're testing FF to see how it bans, then you'd know what makes you get banned and try to achieve it. Isn't that what testing is? Not only that, if some of the "best" players on Jericho weren't falsely banned, some of which have near cheater like skill whom you'd assume cheated or would trigger FF, I find it hard to believe that anyone legitimately got banned. (without first knowing how to trigger it and test for it)

    As stated before my only possible sin was getting out of bound once.

    There is one problem, it was on completly different account - and that account didn't faced any consequences. Instead Mitne (my main) did. Strange red flag it would be, isn't it?

    Other than that I can say with clean heart. I didn't used ANY external software while playing game. I had pretty standard background programs list (Explorer + some additional background ones, like Discord or Steam). Used advanced launcher but if that red flagged FF, then sorry - do you find FF reliable then?

    I'm pretty sure any abnormality was red flagged. Who the fuck knows criteria, I assume FF was just going haywire in last years and G1 did shit to prevent that. Instead they used it as tool to ban people to show that "ye, we onto your cheater problem". As I pointed thousand times when G1 was developer and after, it was incompetent beyond belief. But if you research G1 background with others games - you will know why.

    I only remember him saying that after investigating the bans, he came to the conclusion that lot of them were questionably placed.

    Sadly that thread disappeared along with old forums (there was that golden news that Matt FF got banned while testing FF - and if I remember correctly he done everything WITHIN game ONLY to get banned)... Here is though first Q&A of Matt With Kempington and SKay made transcript of it on this forums. Here's chosen fragment related to FF:

    Quote

    Q: Will there be unbans? Will it be a full reversal or partial reversal?

     

    A: This is such a divisive issue. These last two weeks have been extremely busy for Little Orbit, especially with GDPR. What I did was sit on the customer support calls and worked through issues. We had FairFight auto-bans and I sat on the line with customers and logs, and we can clearly determine that there were improper bans. Those bans shouldn’t have been in place. It’s really hard for me to leave those bans in place. But I do want to say that this could raise issues of “oh these cheaters are bad” but specifically the bulk of the cheating bans are going to be reversed; the community is going to get a second chance. We’re not going to unban all players, for instance players committing credit card fraud, but we’re going to unban the majority of the bans. It’s going to be quite a bit of work trying to get the next patch out, but once that happens, and we get the updated FairFight with Battleye, there’s going to be unbans.

     

    I did see in the stream, someone was mentioning the keys that were passed out and were the cause of a number of bans. We will be unbanning those players, I know they were linked to some credit card fraud and some other things. Again, looking back over the logs, looking back over that situation, I don’t think we can hold those players accountable. Obviously it was a murky situation, but they will be included in the unban. I honestly think that that sort of policy of in theory if you commit credit card fraud yourself and you need to bring your account back to balance, we understand that, that's the right way to handle it. You need to pay for something that you got and it's already on your account, you need to bring it back to balance. This case was such a different scenario, it wasn't handled well. So for me, look, I apologize to those players. Not all of them are scott-free or innocent, many of them knew at the time they were trying to collect these things and exploit. But it wasn't handled well by Gamersfirst.

    That said I still preferred Fairfight. At least it was fairly solid at catching cheaters while also being non-existent in terms of problems on the users end. Save for the people being in control of it screwing up.. but I'd blame Tiggs n' crew for that. They allegedly banned people they didn't like under the guise of Fairfight. Meanwhile the people supposed to be tweaking it didn't seem to really be doing that. So. Yeah.

     

    I don't know. Just my opinion on it.

    Well I think I explained my FF ban and it background pretty good. There are also cases of people who were blatantly cheating and were unbanned "cause russians hacked their accounts". For me explanations didn't even worked. I was cheater, they didn't even found it suspicious that I suddenly got red flag raised after playing this game spotless for 7 years at the time. But my history of being ultra critical and sceptic at the time at G1 actions was known.

     

    FairFight was effectively turned into background tool for bans. Nobody would question FF ban. It was for cheats. Therefore you cheated and got banned for it. Your explanations won't work because you might lie in that case either.

    Lucky for me I never play well enough to trip an anti cheat Wanna know my secret?

    Social district.

     

    at least fair fight didn't stop me from tweaking apb from the task manager.

    You can still tweak it by making changes in registry. There is guide somewhere.

    fairfight also did nothing to block cheats, which is why i think it will never work on its own

    Yeah. At moment of my own ban, blatants were going crazy - some weren't banned through ENTIRE FF lifetime.

    11 hours ago, xHenryman90x said:

    Whoever was doing the tweaks messed up, G1/RP even admitted multiple times times that they were having false bans due to new ruleset tweaks.

    Remember when LO took over and Matt tested FF? He got false banned himself during testing. I fear numbers of false bans was gigantic in retrospection (no proof of cheating other than some red flag raised in anti-cheat) and additional note: FF was set on manual mode for it's last 2 years, just giving away flags about suspicious activity.

    I fear whoever was deciding bans just banned whatever was flagged and unbanned whoever they saw fit. Disgusting.

    you need a weapon that you move with and are not fully auto to train aim with i would recommend pitols 45 / obeya fbw

    Not sure. Many auto weapons punish going full auto with them (such as N-TEC).

    .45 and fbw is all just about learning shooting pattern to not choke pistol on each shot.

    Any weapon which only way to hit anything is to pinpoint and you need to control fire on it is fair game.

    JG, OCA, N-TEC, N-HVR, OBIR (great to train tracking honestly), Joker Carbine - I would suggest trying them all out.

    JG will learn you corner-tapping

    OCA will learn you keeping aim at target

    N-TEC will learn you to control fire and aim

    N-HVR will learn you to develop see/fire sense

    OBIR will learn you tracking

    Joker Carbine will learn you to control firetapping.

    Not sure if that has been addressed elsewhere already, but I do wonder: 

     

    Will Battleeye be a problem for those of us, who have old computers and thus have to rely on the use of the "APB advanced launcher" to get the game working on their "potatoes"?

     

    Uber unlikely. If BE would really ban for changes in config (which is only thing advanced launcher do) then it wouldn't be suited for APB at all.

    That 2080ti alone is about $1500

    Ouch. Well probably price will drop harshly year later like with all new top hardware.

    Asking cause I'm planning to do similiar setup.

    Your Jericho (between Rapier and Citadel) and Citadel need a bit of rework in my opinion, city crest over police sign doesn't look that good cause it looks very clustered when I look at it... should be on side or under in my opinion.

    I like second Jericho and Mikro designs tho.

    But how do you want to sell Citadel? 🙂

    On my opinion having us "forced" to play a set time for 500 JT a day seems completely unjustified to me to be a unique event, it also takes a long time to get them.

    I hit daily cap in 1 and half hour. If that's long for you, then I dunno how the hell you play normally.

    I think that the old gun game was much better since there was more excitement for wanting to win and the rewards were good due to a special event.

    Because it is 24/7 run event prices were decreased and capped to prevent abuses. You still make way more tickets than you would via FC and missions.

    you could gift someone an armas purchase, then initiate a chargeback, and both accounts would be banned

    That's why I'm for sending items only after confirming payment. Will slow down ARMAs purchases but at least will make them safer and system would not be possible to abuse in such way.
