    What is stadia? I agree to anything before lo keep doing changes to my loved game, im suffering.

    google wants to join the console market by allowing people to purchase games through google and STREAMING them to any of ur devices.

     

    but you dont actually own the game even though you buy it

    (in the sense of say google stops supporting stadia, anything you've bought can not be redeemed anywhere else nor will you receive a physical copy. think of it as losing your steam account)

     

    really not sure what google is doing with that idea but good god their idea sounds like shit. reminds me of those stupid glasses

    All you had to do was delete APB_Catcher (dot) exe from the Binaries folder (restart PC/relog into windows if it tells you it's in use) and let it update again and it works perfectly.

     

    I posted this on my discord server and it worked for multiple people:

     

    For everyone having issues with the new APB update, related to APB Catcher.

    1. Restart your PC/Log Off from Windows and Relog in order to reset all processes.

    2. Open APB Reloaded/Binaries and delete APB_Catcher.

    3. Open the updater again and let the game update.

    4. Apply any configs.

    5. Play.

    Thread at this point is more so bitching about how we as the consumer shouldn't be fixing the issues ourselves when its the responsibility of the company who publishes the client to make sure it works properly.

    As sad as the state of the game might be, it is nothing compared to the sadness of the people from/behind LO who invested actual money in APB, after they discovered the absolute poo-pit APB is/was. Both state-of-the-game-wise as well as community-wise (unless said money-men are raging masochists, off course. And if that is the case, then I have some dubious investments ready, sure to result in even more perverted pleasure).

     

    I never doubted the good intentions of LO, and I still believe they are trying their best to succeed with APB, AND I really hope it happens. But the tint of my glasses is getting less and less rosy.

    i am a proud masochist myself thankuverymuch mr manboobs

    No, because that is some sort of client server issue.

     

    I don't know, but what we always described as "ghost shots" are shots that the client executes but the server never registers (or get sorted out by how the framerates work). Op's ghost shots seem to talk about input issues that the game doesn't register, so his ghost shots aren't what we usually consider as ghost shots.

    damn 5 months later and i get a response.

     

    what is this support?

     

    i seriously hope whoever the fuck becomes the main team behind bug fixes and optimization they look into fixing the hitreg issue entirely. apb is probably the only game i play that has such a major problem with hit registration when it comes to combat. and im mostly referring to when two players with similar ping are fighting each other, not australians fighting americans

    I don't think removing consumables would be a good thing anyhow. Better to just rebalance them a bit more. It's been literal years since they were implemented and APB isn't a beta title. It's bad enough we don't have the drug mule event anymore or any of the other ambient events after G1 broke everything they touch.

    Pretty sure they're referring to the most spoken INTERNATIONAL language.

     

    Not that a normal person would understand what that means in the first place...

    it’s more of a selfish option tbh, i just want to name my characters unreadable stuff 

    yeah but if the devs cant fix the current issue of not being able to report players with special characters, cheaters would probably start using the special characters lol

    option 3: let everyone use any special characters in names and clan names

    i can see the 80 different clans all with the same name just with 'special characters' appearing

    The real question is did you get a warning or a temp ban before they handed out the perma ban, because if you did you really don't have anything to complain about. 

     

    However I have heard of people getting perma banned for being toxic without previous warnings since LO tookover.

    its same with g1.

     

    depends who deals with the report. I have no idea why there is no structure to dealing with reports or bans. If the mod is being nice, they will warn you. If the mod is having a bad day, permanent ban.

     

    Most game companies have this issue. No one follows a set SOP regarding handing out bans, warning, or whatever. They just do what they feel is right. And I find that biased as fuck.

    And players with accounts more than 90 days old should not have access to the green/bronze district.

     

    I know matchmaking will eventually change but as a temp fix put new players in the green/bronze districts only and block accounts older than 90 days from those districts.

    with that, just remove threat from being seen then.

     

    Bronze district is for bronze players. It isn't solely for new players at all. Otherwise they wouldn't call it bronze district.

    I would strongly encourage new players to go to green districts.

    Depends on population. The first 2 or so missions are done solo. But after that you don't get opposition in those districts because there is no population.

    more crap

     

    A proper GM would be able to determine whether or not the team killing or AFK is on purpose or not. It isn't hard to determine if something is on purpose. Dethreaters will repeatedly team kill and the incompetent team leader will ignore the team mate's pleas to kick them. Or the person killing is the team leader. It isn't hard for the GMs to look into the team chat either. Most people will apologize for accidentally killing someone or make some sort of reference of 'oh rip lol' that they killed someone on accident.

     

    AFK is another issue entirely. When a dethreater 'AFKs' in a mission they will go to a contact area or some area a distance away from the mission objectives, and they will play around and do just enough to not receive the AFK demerit. Because to them demerits mean they will not lose enough rank or they could be kicked, and they don't want to be kicked as they would lose their dethreat simply because the mission will not count against them.

     

    You don't need to ban people, simply kicking them to the login screen is sufficient. Getting kicked by a GM is a lot more powerful than simply banning someone. It tells the dipshit they were watched and someone saw them doing the stupid. Normal people will reflect on it and realize 'oh no this is a bad thing.' Banning should be reserved for those weirdos who constantly get kicked for such actions and think its their 'god given right' to dethreat because they cry about 'being bad at the game' as an excuse to dethreat and ruin everyone else's fun for their own.

    crap

    The threat levels are a shit way to determine what skill level you're at.

     

    What your character rank is doesn't really matter. You can give some bronze player my account and in a few days the account will be in silver, and eventually hit bronze level.

     

    It doesn't matter what modifications or what weapons you have.

     

    If you're shit. You're shit.

    End of discussion.

     

    Now to be on topic.

     

    Yes dethreating is a major issue, and I feel there needs to be more GM's focused on policing the bronze districts. And I prefer legitimate GMs, not useless twats with fancy colored titles in front of their names discussing dumbshit.

     

    It would be better to get GMs who don't enable their dumb title to simply play the game a bit in bronze, force their threat level to bronze or silver and play the game in bronze district.

     

    They would see for themselves how shit the situation is. Regardless if it is Jericho or Citadel. Both servers have a major issue with how dethreating is handled and how often it is done. Even in the silver district there are people who will play the first 2 or so objectives, and then either team kill you, or go to the contacts and AFK until mission ends.

    While all languages are allowed on our forums, I would very much like to know where you saw that this should be an English only forum?

     

    ~@mayii

    this forum used to have rules regarding everything posted in this forum section be in english

     

    whether they changed it or not should be clarified somewhere
