There was work done, if butcher was given its not like those who got it didnt work for their win. Its much diff then just handing it out but again im up for suggestions.

What other exclusive weapon skin is out there that could be used for autumn assault? Ive suggested butcher and LO making a new exclusive. Im for either one just so long as its exclusive Thats not a bad idea at all. Fits for Autumn, just depends if LO wants to make a new skin or not tbh.

Exactly the butcher skin was changed to keep it exclusive for the handful who still play who have it. Without another exclusive to make up for making the autumn assault skin non exclusive is a slap in the face to those who did it right. The ones who griefed really could care less. Out of all the winners only a handful won once and did the right thing so if the butcher skin was given to them its still exclusive and still very few have it. I dont see anybody else suggesting a way that fits both sides here and ppl keep saying make it work for both sides and what i said does that yet nobody is reading.

Guna repeat again here. Unless LO is willing to make a new exclusive weapon skin as compensation to those who won once butcher is the only other one. Autumn Assault skin for anyone who participated in the event Butcher skin for those who won but didnt win multiple times and assisted others Multiple winners get nothing further as they have the skin and won alot of JT in the process Please see above. It works for all parties here.

If when this event was orig announced the butcher skin wasnt the reward yes id agree it was extreme but the fact stands that when this was orig announced the reward for 1st place was going to be the butcher skin. Since that was the orig reward it is not extreme. The reason it was changed was cause the select few vets who have it complained that it would ruin the exclusiveness. Valid point and it was changed to the autumn assault skin we have now, but since this all went due south out of the gate its valid to bring it back up. Maby LO can create another exclusive skin for what im saying but thats up to Matt but if the skin isnt exclusive all the hard work is pointless.

I think if LO is going to hand out the skin they need to hand out something for those ppl who won honorably at the same time. Im sure they can go back to the match history and pull all the winners and I know GM Mist was keeping a written list as to winners so they do have something to go off of. They got themselves in quite a pickle here and while awarding the skin to all participants is the right thing to do it then makes all the effort for those who did it honorably futile. If Matt gives this out then he needs to do right to those honorable folk as well that way is fair all around.

I personally am for my prior statement quoted below as that seems fair for anyone who played the event and was impacted one way or another. Obv those who didnt play fairly get nothing. Thats only if you dont own everything off armas and lets be honest, all the tryhards who kept repeat winning already own everything so JT is pointless. For those who own everything and didnt win JT is just as pointless so in your argument no JT isnt a meaningful consultation prize.

And I suggested to shift back to it as I said in my reply abit earlier as a way to reward those who behaved well vs those who didnt. Awarding the skin is fine in my book but after everything I had to go through just to get it I feel that there needs to be something more as im sure others minus those who win 20+ times will relate to.

It was never given out. Unless Matt takes my idea above into consideration it wont be seen.

@MattScott Yes this event was a complete failure however there should be some kind of reward for those ppl who actually adhered to the GMs requests to not continuously win. They showed great respect to the other players by not only avoiding to win but helping others win the skin. I honestly think the butcher skin should be brought back as an option for these players cause its players like those who make the community and the game great and fun. For those who won repeatedly however I feel they should get nothing as while yes the JT was a big draw there were those who were winning just for bragging rights and to block others from winning not caring about the JT (this is considered griefing and is against the TOS). I fell it should go like this as it would be fair and would encourage future good behavior by the community. Autumn Assault skin for anyone who participated in the event Butcher skin for those who won but didnt win multiple times and assisted others Multiple winners get nothing further as they have the skin and won alot of JT in the process

With how bad the last 2 events went there may not be afew months to wait

Word of mouth how bad it is ppl avoid the game altogether. All it takes is bad talking and some ppl run away

If you were to get on Jericho right now ud find only 170 ppl on during peak hrs. Thats not only an alltime low for Jericho but it shows that Autumn Assault only drove ppl away from APB. Theres no FC running and you only have one bronze Fin and 1 silver WF populated so unless your silver or lower you cant swap between WF and Fin. @MattScott needs to pull a rabbit out of his hat at this point if he wants to save APB and prevent another server merge.

I had already brought all this up day 1 of the event in my thread. This event was epically flawed, the most out of any event in APB history. Bad spawns, bad boundaries and griefers that kept ***** blocking the skin each and every time. All this would be brought up to @MattScott @Lixil and the GM team yet they didnt do anything about most of it. Asking nicely doesnt work with the kind of community APB has and that was proven within 24hrs yet they still continued to ask instead of booting these griefers or restricting the event so that only ppl who hadent won could join. There were ppl who were blatently showboating how many times they had won the event yet the GMs wouldnt lift a finger to stop it so they kept on winning. Then you had ppl who were obv cheating in the event infront of the GMs and all they would do is tell you to send support a ticket with a video instead of dealing with it promptly. That just left a horrid taste in my mouth and it only proved that the GM staff doesnt really care (G1 all over again). These cheaters should have been dealt with on the spot, instead they now know they can cheat infront of GMs and get away with it so there will be more cheaters in the future (not to mention if anybody did send support a ticket the cheaters have at least 2 months on the acc before any action happens). This again goes to LO and Matt failing to deal with the problem let alone in a timely manor. Event zones were so flawed you could be dead center of the fight and the server wouldnt allow you into the gun games to kill anybody while others could be 150m away from the center and be considered in the zone. This was brought up by the community on day 1 and was never addressed by LO even in the fix. LO will REALLY need to work hard on this next event to make sure it goes off without any issues otherwise they might as well close down cause right now they are 0-2 and ppl are very unhappy.

And tonight we had a GM in Jericho WF that was basically afk the entire time. Games ran but thats abut it with all repeat winners so *shrugs* way to keep it goin.

Given Seiges history they test things? rofl. But on topic gota give kuddos to GM mist tonight as she did kick repeat winners from the event after they continued to ignore the friendly reminder not to repeat.

What im trying to say is that without enough gms to run each assault dist as it stands even if this was at a diff time the same issues would persist.

Actually I was unaware of that. I dont watch streams nor do I no life APB as im juggling work, school, my moms cancer and my own injury. If thats the case and GMs do wield the ban hammer then all they need to do is hire more ppl.

My comments were in regard to the GMs as a whole

They dont have the most needed power that makes a GM a GM, the power to ban. When LO took over Matt said the GM staff wouldnt be able to ban and they could only watch cheaters and foward the info to battle eye. Essentially put a program has more power then a GM which is quite pathetic as not only can they not ban cheaters but they cant suspend griefers either they dont have the authority to. Everything either goes through battle eye or a recording is submitted to support so they can eventually get to it after sev months (sound familiar to anyone? G1 high hacker tolerance in a nutshell) instead of a quick and prompt response that will keep disruptions to a minimum in both time having to deal with them and them being able to ruin play.

Nobody has a choice over time zones. While yes I know they dont have a dedicated server like we do at the end of the day its still a server for the US as harsh as it sounds. The time for the EU server is for the EU pop ppl from the US or Russia have to deal with that on there. Would it? Maby maby not as ud still find the no lives griefing the event to prevent ppl from getting the skin. But at the end of the day Matt didnt hire enough GMs to handle diff time slots and as is they are short GMs for the single hr its set up for. They should have made it top 5 scores get the skin and 6-10 get a weapon skin from armas. This allows sev ppl to get the event skin, prevent griefing cause winners cant block and gives others a chance at a skin that maby some cant get cause they cant buy it. As for the JT unless your a low lvl (and nobody in this event is) its worthless so ppl saying JT is worth is using it as an excuse (like Joe)

As much as id agree they are accessing a server made for the US and as such they gota go by the time the server is set for. If it was us accessing a server in Aus wed have to go by their time. Thats the breaks when accessing a server outside your country.

Those guys go and actual paid GMs come in. The current GM system wont work and were already seeing it in the lazy GMs and the inability to ban ppl.

Realtime worlds the orig dev of APB did have an CBT and OBT phase of the game back in the day. Just given the game has changed hands twice since then and the orig coders are long gone + a custom code nobody knows how to exactly work it so bugs happen freq. Once the new engine comes out with new code writing alot of things can be addressed.

Its never going to work with 100% of ppls sched. What LO should have done was run the sched for sev hrs lets say 6-9PM. That covers a good swath of time and allows ppl to get in at the event.
