    A big part of APB's value, as far as I'm concerned, is held by the lore. The team at Little Orbit should definitely try and build on the lore instead of watering it down like G1 did.
    Keep the nicknames for preset-variants like the original game did, but use more "technical" nomenclature for default and open-slot versions.

    The 'Showstopper' is a large caliber pistol, something like "Colby LCP 357" would make sense (obviously replace the number with whatever caliber/shell type you intended the weapon to use).

    Seeing the high poly models for all the new weapons makes me hopeful for a big visual upgrade later on. I know pretty much every new pack since like open beta had obviously the original high poly version and then the low poly dumbed down version for APB. Aside from better looking clothing I’d love to see properly animated and high quality weapon models some day

    Hi all,

    Looks like we'll be able to leave your friends lists intact, but we will need to wipe any non-reciprocal friends (open friend requests).

    Thanks,
    Matt
    Nice guess I'll find out who even had me on their friends list. Played with a ton of people over the years but obviously only a fraction of a fraction of them even log on anymore

    I haven’t been home to test the new patch but apparently the CSG is back to being a sniper shotgun. I hope that isn’t left that way because it was pretty much the do all CQC weapon back in the day. 2 shotting people at 20-30 meters shouldn’t be a thing anymore 

    As explained already, they're going to be tweaking shotguns still because they're too effective at all ranges, they just want to do things little by little.
    That’s good. Because before weapons would get tweaked and left that way for months

    im suprised im getting 145fps on max.... i play on minimum on jericho and struggles to maintain 120..
    Gamerfirst/Reloaded continuously degraded the game's performance over the eight years they had the game, never bothering to even attempt to push fixes or attempts at improvement. It's unsurprising that you're seeing increased performance on an updated client, Little Orbit has shown (through action, repeatedly) that they're actually stripping all that broken garbage back out and replacing it with stable goodness. Just look at the server performance issues, there hasn't been latency issues in over a week, game's been completely stable after they pushed their fixes... albeit with the hitreg issue sneaking in.
    The reason why everybody's FPS was through the roof was because it was nothing but uncustomized bambies running around. Also there may have not been latency issues but a lot of people myself included are still having major issues even staying on the game longer than an hour without dc'ing straight to the main menu

    It looks like The Judge from PayDay2 (sorry weapon experts I don't do irl guns), which in that game at least was a shotgun-pistol, considering the changes to our spread-shot frenemies, this would be the sensible just in time guess.
    It's exactly that. A quick firing shotty pistol. Shotguns are broke AF in OTW atm so nobody can properly test it

    please tell me the new secondary is anti-vehicle

    everything else looks cool, communication still going strong

    I'm gonna take a guess that it's something along the lines of a shotgun-pistol that we've been teased over for years now.
    Looks similar to a Taurus so probably a shotty pistol for sure 

    Excited about 3.5 being brought to OTW hopefully soon™

    Gamersfirst left APB in a terrible state, since LO took over we've only seen improvements, it will take time for Little Orbit to clean up all of G1's mistakes, just have some patience.

    This. People expect the game to make a full turnaround in a couple months. Ridiculous

  8. I actually liked the old threat system. Liked being able to see what specific threat level I was but I don't mind the new system. I don't agree with removing threat all together. The game has too steep of a learning curve for green to bronze level players to just constantly go up against veteran players. This is one of the things that makes new players quit the game. Matchmaking with no threat would be terrible. If you weren't in a 4-man premade already you'd be getting unfair matchups constantly. 2 golds with 2 bronzes against 4 man premade or 3 golds 1 silvers against 4 bronzes, etc...

    Matchmaking and threat can be tweaked for sure. We could even roll back to old threat and I wouldn't have an issue but removing it all together where you don't have a clue who is obviously a seasoned player and who isn't is a dumb idea

    Servers are still aids idk what you're talking about

    Been fine for me since the maintenance?
    It was good for me for like 2 days, I had great ping, perfect hitreg then I started getting randomly disconnected from every district. My ping is also back to being double of what it was. Matt already said one of their gms has been getting the dc issue so.

    I’ve got a sneaking suspicion that the random dc thing is also causing my ping to be higher than usual and wrecking my hitreg but who knows

    context

    also i was playing waterfront with a friend last night, around 1 am east on jericho, maybe a little earlier, and he kept getting disconnected, happened about 5 times. i noticed it happened to quite a few people, since we'd be constantly losing teammates and some enemies as well

    That’s good to know figured my internet was giving me shit 

    EDIT: I guess I should add I can't even play 5 minutes now without dc'ing. The pop right now on Jericho is insanely low for Friday afternoon so. I'm surprised this hasn't been addressed yet

    Have you guys been getting reports of people randomly disconnecting? I keep dc'ing no matter what district I'm in. Sometimes I can stay on for a few hours. Sometimes only 15 minutes. No ping spikes or connection lost error just immediately disconnects to the login screen

    Also interesting that you were able to recreate reg issues. My reg has been fine overall after upgrading my service but I still get moments where I was sure I should've killed whoever I was facing
    I can say that it's not just you, I have some Italian friends who have a lot of issues getting connected, and after they do, they have difficulty staying connected for long periods of time. I'm from NA and have no issues, and our other German friend we play with regularly has no issues.
    Weird, I’m in Arizona so I have no issues with my ping or connection I just get instantly booted to the login screen whenever the game feels like it
