it runs so smooth

Or make the announcement in russian...

Out of all games this one is really the last they should attack. Maybe hit on the
chinesecanadian BHVR instead -
Yes. If the performance will be at least the same as live. That's for a short while because without any new content everyone will leave and without some sort of new players protection the game won't grow.

I thought that it was about wheelies or rather lack of. I don't care about themes because I always delete the audio folder but man where are wheelies?
-
I like live more. Beta feels very heavy on my eyes with this strong contrast everywhere
-
They probably hope that it won't be needed with new MM and hopefully bigger population so it's unlikely it's going to happen before the 2.1 goes live

That too but if I level some alt I can gamble and wait 3min

Or remove friendly fire on unopposed. Some people are willing to wait every stage and TK anyone who do the obj. Sometimes that might take even 20 minutes of wasted time lol.
It's more effective to wait on the drop and have less stages till the end but some will go as far as 99 4 objectives and patrol them like a maniac

Just saying... i'm also often pissed from things in APB and thats okay.
We should be happy that actual devs care about problems!
It's just a matter of giving a fuck and using a bit of brain. Not like I expect it...

Yup that's exactly what I've said

I think that it's a good time to start caring more about new players than your own good time

"Matchmaking is broken anyway."

I can play in bronze to chill but still let bronzes/new players kill me and win. But yeah inb4 "there's no way to prove someone is new and this thread is the example"
-
I was curious if anything has changed. I created a new character and started playing in bronze pretending that I'm new. I didn't sprint at all, couldn't aim. To make everyone take the bait but I quickly realized that even with this low population no one really cares about this game's future. I played around 15 missions and there was literally not one time where I was not getting farmed. If I was a new player you can bet I would be long gone. Like most.
Now did I expect different outcome? Lol no. This is 2020 mentality on pair with crying how predatory or bad some studio is but giving them $100 on the next ocasion. There's no such thing (mostly) as responsible gamers.
I really hope that the new matchmaking will take care of the new blood because without it this game won't grow and without a bigger /pop you can bet the plug will be pulled fast.
TLDR: if you farm bronzes don't cry that this game is where it is.

The only multiplayer games that can still allow themselves to be buy 2 play are COD, Battlefield and GTA. Every other newer multiplayer game that tries to be buy 2 play dies, so I don't see APB breaking that pattern.
DBD and ESO would like to have a word with you...

They didn't get all the money for just this project and they were also mismanaging it a lot. On top of it the UE was pretty primitive at that time. APB isn't even an open world like in other games. They had to find a way to "stitch" together few arenas and let us traverse it. There was no time cycle and many things included. Nowdays they could utilize everything that UE4 (or something else) has to offer and reduce the amount of custom code, work and people.
-
This was quite fun. I wish there were more casual activities like this to chill without sweating much

@OP where exactly is the RTW come back rumors source??

It's not only the newbie perspective. APB is very comptetive and it's not casual friendly. This could be both it's good selling point but also one of it's coffin nails. I've 8k hours and I'd play to chill sometimes but you can't really do that in APB. I always see that opposition playing like there was $20k irl prize for each kill and I'm just memeing around because sadly there's nothing to motivate me to play that good anymore.

9 hours ago, R3ACT3M said:I think it has to do with file types. Ill use skyrim as an example since ive become quite good at modding it. Both skyrim, fallout, and skyrim se use .nif files these are object files (meshes) so you would think you could just drag and Drop nifs between games since all 3 use nif files. But even though they are nif. They all aren't created equal. So Skyrim to Skyrim SE simply require the nif to be optimized for se but might still work. But skyrim to fallout might be a bigger pain to try and do.
so i bet the jump from 3 to 3.5 is the easiest. Plus 3.5 was already started. I bet you a million bucks, LO wouldn't have bought reloaded productions/gamersfirst/apb if the engine upgrade wasn't already in progress.
p.s. i think anyone could half patootie take apb and put it into unreal 5 but it just wouldn’t look good or run good.
That might be the point but I think that G1 still had original .max files from RTW

20 hours ago, R3ACT3M said:I bet if they wanted, they could just take the engine and half patootie place stuff into Unreal 3.5 even 4 and everything will generally look the same even maybe play the same.
If you go back to previous tracking the engine upgrade posts, they show how vertices aren't "welded" together and how indirect lighting needed to be contained within cells or how shadows don't display right.
Although I bet most of that has been ironed out since, and now they are trying their best to get the game looking better and performing better or as good as apb 1.20 (Live)I always wondered why can't they just port the maps, create new customization system and for everything else use what UE 4 has to offer. We would lose our customizations but no pain no gain.

still playing APB in 2021 ?

Really not at all. Just uninstalled because I realized that I'm not gonna play anymore and I probably won't miss this game when it will shut down. I let the memories die a while ago and it went easy to embrace the reality. Everyone I've met in this game was a big and toxic waste of time. For a while I thought that I've made a good friend for lyfe but...I've met him in APB so there's that KEKW.
