@Lixil You guys have had nothing but problems since the 12hr maint and its been impossible to play since. Were losing our prem time and this really highlights the engine upgrade being top priority over the servers cant handle APB in its current outdated state.

Yup error code 9 at login @MattScott @Lixil. Now sure what u guys did during that 12+hr maint but the servers are performing worse then before if that was even possible.

Yup. It used to be a thing but all it did was usher in the era of dethreating and dethreating has been a problem ever since. Due to this epic failure on the part of G1 and the infamous Tiggs they had to revert it to try to quell the amount of dethreating. It helped but it didnt stop it so at the end of the day you can thank the quality of this community for that. If segregation is brought back dethreating will only get 10x worse once more.

Yea they knew alright. Thats why we constantly had poop performing servers and freq crashes.

So many ppl complaining about the game being down yet most of them dont even play rofl

Untill ppl start playing again ull be lucky to find a wf dist to play in, same goes for fc. Either guna have to play as is or not play and wait

Well at least new servers should make things better in the long run

That used to happen when segregation was first introduced, it lead to ppl mass dethreating so they wouldn't have to play in gold servers. At the end of the day segregation only made things worse and dethreating has been a problem ever since. And dethreating only makes threat and matchmaking that much worse. Part of the problem is the community and the community honestly needs to grow a pair. They complain all the time about all this stuff yet they dont do anything to fix it and continue in the ways that has made is as bad as it is.

I gota be honest, unless there moving to new servers and a new ip I dont see perf improving

Yes we do need strong measures but besides that we need strong enforcement as more often then not ppl try to take the easy way out. When ppl see ENFORCEMENT of the rules and there are examples made of some ppl who arent following them ppl will fall in line, without that ppl will continue to weave around them,

You need segregation in order to keep ppl playing within their skill range. Without it you get what APB matchmaking is, a complete and udder failure. You also get further problems when the game community is so bad that they drop threat just to crush ppl of lesser skill and its accepted more then its shamed. Not everyone is top tier badass at a game and when your not as good and u have to face these ppl constantly its damaging as then you feel like crap. Stayin within an area allows you to find ur range where u can enjoy playing and can have tough fun battles that make playing worth it. Even with rules its chaos when there not enforced and the community accepts the bad behavior as ok.

There really is no point. You play the game long enough theres 0 reason to tryhard and 0 reason to even bother winning as once u cap theres nothing else to do (geting and or keeping gold dont count). You can work on ur roles but that requires FC which is always dead anyway. No new content since 2014 means no new reasons to trying to win and thats made worse by the fact that threat in APB is broken as hell anyway. Just play to have fun.

The Nfag has been a problem in APB for yrs but with the quality of players left less then bad (on a good day) the guns seen an increase in use to compensate for the lack of skill and the need to be cheap. Removing the gun entirely is not feasible as many ppl paid for the gun wether armas or JMB and would require alot of payback and digging to see if the acc in question is banned or not and how maby JMBs were opened to give the refund. A nerf is def required as how the gun currently stands there is no counter. A 4 shot to kill would be better as a min ttk as it would require a longer engagement and the other person could have a chance to fight or get behind cover. Pump action shotties with a 3 shot kill is fine as theres plenty of time to kill with another weapon before they can get all 3 shots off (pending enough pellets hit) for an Nfag theres just no way.

And why is this 12hrs. More info would be nice

That would require all these forum warriors to log in and actually play the game god forbid. People in here who arent logging in to play cant complain about the population when there part of the reason its so dead to begin with.

Thats included in it. If we had adults here instead of salty toxic kids it wouldnt be so much of an issue even without proper moderation.

If we had the player base sure. If we had ppl who could behave themselves inside said forum and not do what they did last time in the clan section even better.

Well thats the thing. If there were more ppl and more clans it would be active and there would be a valid reason for the section. One person running the only active clan doesn't constitute enough.

One clan? Thats sooooo active

Im not saying it hasnt taken a hit. If youve read what ive said in here ive been saying its worse now then last yr. Most ppl log in via steam its been proven countless times over the yrs and plz look below for yet again more proof. When the % of logins is 90 to 10 at best you have no argument.

When clans/groups arent completely dead within APB

If playing via steam and playing via the G1 launcher is such a major perf hit to you then you got one P.O.S. pc. Plz, invest in an up to date one even G1 servers are better. Ive played via 2 diff pcs on steam and non steam and there was no diff between the 2 on each pc. They both use the G1 launcher at the end of the day anyway the only diff is that one is straight up log in and play and the other allows you to contact friends and chat and or play with them. ^ this. If you pc is remotely better then the G1 servers you dont need any kind of booster (which if your pc is worse then these servers its a p.o.s. that needs to be scrapped yesterday) and for those trying to get better fps you not guna get anything better in the current engine as pc tech surpassed it many yrs ago. Case in point I just built a new pc 3 weeks ago and upgraded everything inside and im still in the 60s fps wise, if a GTX 1050ti can easily handle APB my new RTX2060 wont break a sweat. Either deal with it or dont play. Steam charts and /pop has been proven to be so close together that any argument of steam charts being inaccurate is invalid. Most ppl play via steam, end of story.

Pot related stuff? doesnt really bring any interest tbh. Sounds pretty lame.

why would what be higher? the amount of social warriors? Cause less ppl r playing they make up a bigger %

id say thats abit high especially if you count the social warriors. They arent actually playing there just sitting around afk in social all day.
