    Actually, APB is one of the most difficult UE3 games to cheat in due to the multitude of things used to stop cheaters in the actual game exe, but upgrading the engine will change nothing, UE3.5 & UE4 aren't THAT different from UE3.
    lmao... that's just a downright lie.
    Elaborate on which part is a "downright lie," I made two statements.

    WF has too many points that are in the middle of the street with a million angles one has to watch, it means we just get gangbanged by snipers, drive up on them, hop out and blast them down, get on the point, maybe get wiped one or two more times by shit spawns, finish the point, and repeat. It's not that it's necessarily harder to play WF than Fin, it's that it's more annoying and always an all-out slugfest of HVRs and N-TECs, it makes missions take fucking ages, and due to the open nature of the environment, some weapons really aren't that great there which greatly limits some people's ability to play, I am not and never have been a fan of using mid-long range weapons like the OBIR/HVR/N-TEC (Obeya is fine), it's not that I can't compete with them or play them myself, it's more that I just don't like the style of play they require and I'm not nearly as efficient with them as I am with a Carbine, and there's a bunch of places the Carbine can't compete necessarily well at in Waterfront, there's some in Financial but far fewer.

    RIP Carbine btw.

    The thing I find somewhat unusual about base missions is that sometimes (rarely, but sometimes) the base of your team and the opponent team can literally be like 5m from one another, for example, in financial where the highway merges back into one from a fork and there's a satellite dish you can jump on next to a car spawner with a few fences, your team, and the enemy team can actually have your base be a single fence away, as I said, it's rare, but still happens. I don't necessarily think it needs to be changed because there's not really an advantage to either side, it's actually pretty damn balanced, all things considered, it's just rather unusual is all.

    Those are my favorite, simply because at that point it's basically a single territory hold finale (which is one of the most balanced finales in the game).
    It is definitely my favorite final mission, and it's definitely the most balanced final mission in the game, when the points are very, very close to each other, it's not like anyone gets an unfair or favorable point, as the points are in the exact same location, both teams have the exact same areas that give them an advantage or disadvantage, the better team is the one that's going to win that mission pretty much every single time, especially in the area I'm talking about (albeit very poorly), because it's not a super enclosed or hard to get to area with only a few methods of entry, like the enforcer roof or red roof in the middle of the map at waterfront, it's entirely open and the highway connects it which means most people are going to just drive up onto the highway and fight up there, not a lot of corners to be camped either.

    K so my question is, from all the negative feedbacks from those who DID try OTW, why was the update "rushed" to live?
    How many people DID actually give their feedbacks? How many of them are negative and how many of them are positive?
    Because 80% of people that complained about the patch i havnt seen a single feedback from them
    Matt said why it was rushed to live here:
    And a lot of us gave our feedback, just take a look at the OTW feedback thread and you'll see it...

    There's nothing to question, it's all right there.

    at NA region routing, even at the business level, is just worse than EU if you're not a large enterprise. Even NCsoft had severe issues last year with the NA servers for several of their titles.

     
    NA routing is dog shit, always has been because our internet infrastructure is garbage and our internet companies would rather be jerks and spike the price as much as they can, intentionally staying out of one another's area, rather than work together and have proper infrastructure.

    From a personal PoV playing on Jericho with >144ms Ping is no fun, can't imagine it's more fun the other way round either tbh.

    Europeans love to complain about having high ping, I play there pretty regularly with between 120-160ms depending on the district and time of day, and a lot of the people over there BabyRage as soon as their ping goes slightly over 100ms, they act like they're so laggy it's unplayable and it's the end of the world. I do just fine on 160ms.

    Thats the point. People do not TRY OTW to give their feedback so LO can have MORE data to collect before pushing something live.


    correct me if i'm wrong.

    EDIT: I tried OTW on a,b,c,d and e tests before the weapon patch went live. And those 5 times i played for 2hours on OTW and there were max 12 players...
    I'm going to correct you because you're wrong, I saw a lot of people testing during the last update, and on several occasions districts were full because of the stress test, just off the top of my head in Baylan testing alone, I saw Devais, Kemp, Shini, Frosi, Bung, Cookie, myself, Snubnose, Uqe, and several other people, and we all gave our feedback on the changes (and overwhelmingly were in agreement with one another)

    Yea, befor the patch with the new limit of 145 u can set your monitor to 120 hz and you got 120 fps limit ingame, you set your monitor to 100hz so u have ingame 100 fps limit.
    Thats why MattScott say that he need to fix that because u cant do it anymore.
    Nvidia inspector is ur friendo, works for me at least. 🤷‍♂️

    You're using a CSG, I didn't specify what shotgun. That's because I'm typing.

    That is true, you did not specify the shotgun, but to say "shotguns" implies all of the shotguns, the Shredder and CSG can both 3 shot from ~15m, the JG cannot (maybe if you get insane RNG you can, but not regularly, I tested this earlier and was only getting 4 shots), the Strife is garbage so I'm not going to even care enough to test it. I can see both sides of the argument, some people think they're OP, others think they're fine. I personally am enjoying the meta change, it's nice to have things shaken up once in a while.

    3 shots at 20m, so what? An OCA can beat that ttk at that range lmao
    Depends on a lot of factors, if you're just standing out in the open then yes the OCA will most likely win every time unless you get really bad RNG, but if you're playing the shotgun properly and corner popping then the OCA most likely won't even have time to hit the shotgun user before being 85, I never even stated my opinion on the changes, all I said was it's untrue that shotguns cannot 3 shot at 15m.

    Server has gotten to the point where >50% of my inputs get messed up. Running in a straight line warps every couple seconds, lean inputs don't register or I get stuck in lean, shots completely going through people, randomly teleporting off ledges, vehicles lock up every few seconds, etc. Best part is that it seems to affect people inconsistently - it isn't the whole server lagging at once, each player experiences their own uniquely timed problems.

    LO, please revert whatever netcode changes you did in the patch. It has completely broken the game. I cannot play until it gets fixed.

    The new networking changes didn't cause this, it has been this way for a while.

    With the dope changes they are doing to nhvr u think this going to get better lol.

    Just keep your bullshoot, keep listening to the "cool" guys and "experienced" players. This is the result: https://steamcharts.com/app/113400 (i too straight unninstalled, there are plenty of enjoyable games that do not  worry you about getting weapons you enjoy trashed, or trash balances).
    Let the game die already, bb.

    l8r dont forget to bring ur crying with u to the next game, or you can leave it at the door so i can come by and collect it to put it back in the "take one" bin.

    I think if it were brought down to a 3-ball, it would be fine.. then again, with the way the new pellet system works, it would still be doing 350+ damage for 2/3 balls hitting.. you could also say it's firing fleschette right now which would further explain the range
     
    Flechettes are more in line with the way that the NL9 works though.

    Because if you know they can 3shot you in 20m why do u keep going close?
    Have you found a way to complete objectives from over 20m away? I guess if you play Crim and have to shoot CCTV or storefronts that works, but otherwise I don't see how you can avoid getting into shotgun territory. Your opponent can just wait around a corner when you keep your distance.

    Just get the range increase mod for objectives bro, don't you have it yet? Don't tell me you also don't have the teleportation mod...

    Why only breast cancer? Every type of cancer is just as bad.

    Pink is the official color of breast cancer and October is breast cancer awareness month, that's really why it works out, but yes, other cancers tend to be far worse than breast cancer.
