    everyone against the change, to be brutally honest are old school silvers that dont know their head from their pleasant fellow in game that like to bully new players. non segegated threat allows people to play against people better than them and learn how they play if they have the mental attitude to try and get better. 4 trash silvers spamming volcanos isnt quite the best way to learn the game by any means.

    Sick of the macros firing at super constant rates with guns like joker carbine, SHAW etc etc. Lol im sick of paying to be beaten by people who are cheating.

     

    I am paying for APB to support LO but shit its been a year + now and we are still seeing the same crap day after day.

     

    Guy with macro using Shaw - never misses a shot and recoil pretty much under super control

    Guy with Macro using Joker - super accurate fire rate, never misses a shot as its like playing with a full auto gun with better accuracy and range and recoil pretty much under super control

     

    Whisper the guy to "turn off macro". Get a string of Russian text back.

     

    Subscription cancelled.

     

    As far as macros go with shooting a carbine and other semi auto guns, if you set your macro to click to fast you cant aim, if you make it too slow its pointless. tbh if you're fighting people that are doing that they either just learned the cycling rate or if they are cheating its a triggerbot etc. macro not really as useful as people think. trust me i tried it when i first started back in 2013.

     

     

    Sincerely the best carbiner,

    Hi all,

     

    Over the last couple days, a significant amount of accounts were banned. 

    We do not normally acknowledge or discuss these bans, because it's a toxic behavior, and I believe the community is better off without it.

    However, my mods have had to deal with several posts about the issue, and I also believe in being upfront with the community when there is a situation.


    For context, I recently posted publicly that we were tracking a number of cheats/hacks and that we were working with BattlEye to detect and block them.

    Over the last couple days, many accounts were finally banned as we wrap up that process.

     

    This included two groups.

     

    1) Accounts permanently banned based on company evidence

    These were all researched by my team so that proper evidence could be directly collected and added to their account. I do want to thank the many players who reached out with copies of cheats, videos of evidence, and the vast amount of /reports that were collected and processed by our analytics systems. All of these things helped us identify problem areas.

     

    Overall, this wasn't a lot of players, but it was a large amount of accounts. This means that we banned all or most of the accounts owned by the player caught cheating - not just the account they cheated on. We tried to be extremely careful and diligent about how this was done, but at the time you get caught, all your accounts can be banned. Clearly this came as a surprise to some players. For the most part, we do allow players to reroll and come back. But that is not a free pass to cheat, damage the experience of other players, while you play consequence free on your main.

     

    2) Accounts temp banned based on new BattlEye detections

    We have been working diligently with BE to improve their ability to detect and block the latest round of cheats. We have seen a big jump in global BE bans. Per our policy these are initially implemented as temp bans which give my staff a chance to review them to make sure we aren't mass banning innocent folks.

     

    If you feel you have been banned unfairly, please make a ticket with support at https://support.gamersfirst.com.

     

    I know Support is still behind, and we don't want to make innocent players wait unnecessarily. @Selali has temporarily assigned some resources to review incoming tickets over the next couple days to try and address these as fast as possible without negatively impacting the rest of the players who have been patiently waiting for their issue to be addressed. We will do our best. But please be patient.

     

    Finally, I understand the temptation to make the game easier by cheating, but please don't. We continue to build out our internal systems, and over time they will get better and better. While you may get away with it for a while, you open the door to losing all of your accounts. A number of very unhappy players today learned that all their progress and even real money spent on the game was lost, and they wont be able to participate in engine upgrade or any of the other new content coming.

     

    For that I am deeply sorry.

     

    Thanks,
    Matt

    thank you for this

    I'm not saying that the idea of making IR make guns less viable in CQC is a bad idea, what I think though is that changing RoF is not the correct way to do that. I personally think it would have been much better to at least experiment with the idea of making the downside increased per-shot modifier instead of decreased RoF, because as has been stated in other places in this thread, not every gun is really effected by decreased RoF in practice.


    TL;DR: My issue isn't the fact that IR3 reduces RoF itself, it's how that plays out with the current guns in APB.
    NTEC becomes slightly slower shooting but pretty close to a railgun at range, obeya shoots slightly slower but becomes the samething, the biggest changes to guns it effects really are oscar and carbine. hipfire medium range guns that can compete with oca and shotgun in cqc. now you cant use IR3 with it and lose medium-long range fights against most guns if the opponent has bad aim. the ROF decrease isnt a bad idea, it has a perfect functionality. the only issue with it is the ttks of the cqc guns being really fast. However because of the ROF nerf it makes the HVR viable against other medium/long range guns with the new change, thus causing this to not break the hvr dominance of long range. the change is fine.

    You just put balance changes on live that ENTIRELY changes the meta of APB for the worse. The IR changes legit stupid as fuck: you put up a patch that was made and tested only just over a week, how much of a joke is that? And the IR changes were up less than a week on OTW. IR3 was essential to many guns, and the new downside effects guns each entirely differently, essentially arbitrarily nerfing at least half of the guns in the game regardless of if they needed nerfs or not. You just flat out nerfed the range of most guns in the game on a whim.

    If you actually think this patch made any sense then you really need to. . . IDK. . . sit back and play APB a few more years? I had a lot of faith in you LO, but boy oh boy did you let me down this month.

    This legitimately is potentially the worst patch in APB history.


    Oh, and P.S., I like the new netcode that makes the game unplayable.

    the IR3 change isnt an issue by means, it makes the mod better for long range and not as versatile for CQC, this creating a meta that sustains CQC medium and long range guns specializing in their place. the change itself is a huge difference in what the game has been but it makes for more specialized game play based on what you do and how you play. thus making the game more diverse when it comes to premade groups. 🙂
