    I don't notice any difference between windowed and fullscreen.

     

    Don't think it's as much of a problem as some people say.

    because we can afford decent computers probably.

     

     

    the only issue window bordless does is increase CPU usage

     

    depending on what you have running with the game it can cause issues otherwise there is no real difference

  2. the amount of people ok with them removing features of the game is pretty depressing

     

     

    just tells u they dont care about being unique or anything and just want the game to last long enough for them to enjoy before it dies.

     

    P5/N5 literally prevented people who were good to stay in one spot while their location was shown on the map. It was also seen as a way to keep people out of cheesy spots because everyone knew where they were and could prevent themselves from getting ambushed by someone hiding in the same spot constantly. instead everyone wants to pretend it was a bad feature when no one ever fucking complained 3 years ago.

     

    Why? Probably because the population wasnt full of whiny patootie people who cry when they get cut down for being so good at the game they got a bounty on them. Now when someone gets P5/N5 that person can sit in their little spot free of care knowing no one can kill them or know where they are. Increasing their boldness.

     

    Great idea! Little Orbit is doing many great things! /s

    Can we stop comparing a PVE game with PVP elements to APB?

    no one compared it to anything. I simply said removing unique features make apb less unique and used gta as the go to example for 'shooty game with cars and gunfights'

     

    stop trying to make everything seem 'different' with buzzwords people use for excusing why X is similar to X lmfao. 

     

    By that logic, every game can be similar because of PvE and PvP 'elements'

    It's a confusing system that doesn't make any sense anymore.

    It was fine the way it was before, except for competitive players. But let's face it, APB isn't a competitive game and was never intended to be one.

     

    But yes, removing features that were unique to APB will surely revive it. Wonder when we can phase through eachothers cars or everyone simply disappears when we're in missions.

    at that point just call it GTA online but not GTA online because APB did it first!

     

    lol

    Ok.... This is obvious. Nowhere in my statement did I infer I was unaware of what the actual NA population peaks were, I was (rather sarcastically) addressing the OP taking 11am stats and saying "This is NA. 82" because 11am is a very bad time to take a number for either server, and he took the peak numbers of Citadel to compare them to. Literally everyone every. Damn. Time. when taking numbers anyone who makes a thread will take a very weak number for NA and say 'look how bad', my point isn't that their actual point is wrong or right; it's that it is a dishonest way to compare the two servers

     

    what.

    I still don't get why people keep taking pre-noon numbers of NA, who the hell is playing Apb in the morning? There's this concept called timezones, I know it's a bit much to grasp but since the Earth is spherical the sun shines at different points of the Earth, thus making it different times of the day to different places on said sphere. Weird I know! Due to this aforementioned knowledge, please stop comparing NA morning numbers to EU evening numbers, thank you for your consideration

     

    If you look at the website or read the graph you can notice how the graph includes all times. Including days.

     

    not sure what you mean by 'prenoon' numbers. The graph literally says

     

    FEB 14 2200 203

     

    FEB 15 2230 214

     

    FEB 16 2200 215

     

    FEB 17 1830 214

     

    FEB 18 2030 220

     

    FEB 19 2100 216

    just in case u have issue with reading you can read it yourself

     

    ADDENDUM: The graph appears to adjust to what your time is set on your computer, so according to me. The times above are US CENTRAL TIME


  6. Just now, vantiks said:

    i barely use the forums but every time i do, i see someone say something along the lines of " i havnt even had the game installed in two years but YOU ARE SO WRONG ABOUT EVERYTHING YOU SAID"

    yes. lots of those people. i know they play, they pretend they dont. but its obvious they do considering how often they sulk and fuzzy bunny on the forums


  7. Yes. It makes no fucking sense to kill Jericho with 'threat segregation' but its pretty obvious no one actually gives a shit.

     

    Someone made a similar thread before threat segregation and they were attacked by the usual dethreaters because they would get placed against players of their level and then cry because they can't run away and hide in the low level districts and kill off population there.

     

    Most games nowadays don't even have segregated servers for threat skill level, they rely on matchmaking. APB is probably one of the few games that still do the segregation because its a bandaid fix for a shit matchmaking system that no one has bothered to change since forever.

    You are very naive if you believe the game is free of cheaters right now. 

    The more I play, the more I see them. It is usually this one guy solo killing the entire team in the moment they get in his view.

    Some cheaters don't even hide but have it induced in the name of their new account. 

     

    Game is not free of cheaters, you just assume people cheat without anything other than 'they kill entire team in view' which I have done a lot when I encounter players who are really shit at the game. You can easily kill 2-3 people in one clip of an ntec if you are lucky enough.

    Btw I haven't seen a single cheater in Paladins. 

    because what dumbfuck would cheat in a hero shooter/moba lol

    I find it pointless reporting anyone for anything other than cheating and even that probably does nothing too if eac has no way of detecting it. 

    tl:dr reporting is pretty pointless to begin with. 

    EAC works, do not know if it actually automatically bans though. Pretty sure they just block people from playing using malicious programs and flag that player and send the name up to LO to do the banning.

     

    Just stop assuming anyone who is killing you quickly is cheating. The game has shit net code to begin with so if you fight people who have unstabl ping or a ping much different than yours you will be killed from behind walls simply due to how everything is registered server side, so to you you are behind cover but the enemy shot you before you got to cover and the server is registering that.

     

    happens in some games i play like paladins, I've had plenty of instances of dying after just getting to cover. APB is probably just worse off considering how dated the code is and UE3 is buggy as shit for multiplayer games in the first place

    some people i seen streaming start to hate people with cyrillic alphabet. all those accounts playing whit that alphabet arent able to be reported by the apb report system. is this a way so they can't be reported and can't be touched. ( i don't want to put names on name and shame but there a few clips on twitch with that issue.)

    they said they were going to wipe old names from banned accounts or accounts not logged in since a year or so and then force all of the people with non latin character names to name change

     

     

    but it didnt happen
