  1. This would be a terrible error in judgement, nobody cares about vivox, nobody uses it, as it was never reliable nor convenient enough to choose it over other VoIP services. There is close to nothing you can put ahead of engine upgrade that community wouldn't mind and, frankly, this looks like a smokescreen to hide some problems with the upgrade to me.
  2. Comrade, this topic is no longer about APB. That's some good, expensive RAM you've got there and, boy, does Ryzen love RAM like that. Just get those running @ at least 3200mhz and you'll notice significant fps increase in all games, among other things.
  3. Owning items included in the pack should reduce the overall price of the pack, not provide duplicate permanents, it's just one of the many things that makes this game feel more like basement run private server, rather than official company run one.
  4. I believe it depends a lot on your definition of "dead game". Realistically, let's use an analogy saying that this game is on life support and the question is, what can be done to keep him there, maybe breath a little bit more life into it, not whether can this game miraculously be reborn into a modern title which could compete with other successful titles of today.
  5. Another year closer to the sweet release of death.
  6. Other unbalanced weapons shouldn't be used as a reference in defense of the one unbalanced weapon in question. Shredder is too reliable at too far of a distance, it requires some tweaks.

    Thank you mod

    That was a faster soonTM than I'd have thought possible.
  8. I've still got a few of these in my mail as rewards for something years ago. I've been testing one of them recently and I found it to be the "carbine of the assault rifles". What I mean by that is that Joker Carbine and ATAC fall into the CQC category as shotguns and SMGs and the advantage it has over these weapons is range. These are weapons for range between OCA and Ntec, bit of a niche, but can be very effective if used correctly. Not as reliable and popular just because if you're a bit too close to OCA, or a bit too far from Ntec,u gon get rekt. I personally found it effective only when used in marksmanship, without yellow mods. For inevitable hug encounters, you just got to have a little faith, no zoom, #sprayandpray. CJ for any mid to close range weapon increases potential effectiveness as well as raising the skill ceiling. That means that even though a weapon with CJ 1 to 3 can be more effective (lower ttk), it's going to be harder to use (Bloom and recoil control). Don't fall into the trap of "cj3 is strongest" and test your weapons extensively with each level of modification. Advised mods: purple of choice, blue of choice, CJ123 or no CJ. edit: Btw imo the scale from easiest to use and least effective, to hardest to use and most effective goes: >hb3>hb2>hb1>stock>cj1>cj2>cj3 Mind, there are other factors, like not being able to use all the provided additional fire rate at longer ranges. The only anecdotal exception is a theory that making your weapon too accurate may result in less hits, if tracking ain't perfect. Just try OCA with cj2 and without RS and see the possibly placebo effect in action.
  9. One of the many trivial things that should have been changed before the game being fully released, yet unfortunately this still isn't looked at, while weapon balance is being worked on, because work on it has already been started in the past. Maybe not the best example, considering that it is probably different people who'd be working on each of these things, but you get what I mean.
  10. I'm guessing software like that, if detected, may kick you out, rather than auto ban, but it'd be nice to hear from the devs on this. I use a macro for checking market item prices in "Path of Exile" and I've once logged into APB without turning it off, Battleye just kicked me.
  11. Thank You. And Thank You. I was using "Care your Eyes" chrome extension before, this is much better. Unfortunately there are a few quirks with the customizable version. Widgets/Subforums sets the color for the post background and the pop-up of new replies, while the option for "Posts" seems to have no effect. Hover/Reacts doesn't either, these seem to stay at a default dark grey. I also found no option of changing secondary text color, the one used for quote text, user post count & joined date and post info in subforums . Although, even as is, current theme works for me better than any other ever did.
  12. Let's assume that there is a handful of hackers, ravaging the streets of San Paro, no ban on the horizon. They're far from the issue that veteran players who've never taken a break from the game are. To you, as well as to the closet hackers. Not sure why are you mentioning H1Z1's solution if they're down to as many players as APB has.
  13. Yeah, if it'd work fine, it'd be nice to have. Considering how it doesn't work and even may cause some input lag and stuttering for some people when activated, then it'd be a better idea to rather remove it completely.
  14. LO didn't just replace G1, they've obtained it. Some of the people working on the game at this time are the same people who have been working on it before LO. As for open pvp districts- you don't have to play on them. They didn't replace mission districts, nor FC's. Weapon balance surely shouldn't be priority over some of the other issues, but these changes can be quickly and easily implemented and tweaked, so why not?
  15. Looking forward to how this is going to work out. We've used this as a reference to get a feel for the changes while testing it out a bit and played some games with these weapons. It's too early to share a constructive opinion yet, though, we'll see after more extensive testing.
  16. Servers are down for maintenance, Indian love poster is just being an Indian love poster, carry on.
  17. It's mostly preference. 4x4 is the most fun vehicle, yet Jericho is my most used one, because of reliability (easier handling). T-25 is my favorite heavy vehicle.
  18. We'll have to wait and see whether that'll be sustainable in 100 user instances.
  19. IIRC, G1 mentioned that we wouldn't notice any difference in-game after the upgrade. It would enable devs to more effectively work on fixing stuff and implementing new, though.
  20. You can keep both versions. Might not even come to that, though, most of the older themes I just discontinue instead of updating them.
  21. Thank you for talking about the things that matter. I'm updating my old themes and making new ones. If you see a theme you own, which is now improved, on the market, just mail me the old one and I'll get you covered.
  22. I can agree with you that what LO is doing right now is more than what G1 were doing before LO took over. I remain hopeful, but sceptical.
