    has anyone come up with any idea how they could or would enforce the rules against dethreats? :classic_huh:

    Just make the dethreat have a cool down, once they hit gold make it stick for a couple days so they get obliterated in silver district.

    If we start enforcing dethreating rules then we need to also remove restrictions on district joining. If someone is gold and they want to play in Waterfront to finish leveling a contact but only silver waterfront has a decent population, then they're essentially screwed out of leveling that contact. I had a situation recently where I'm silver and my friend was gold, silver waterfront was 40/40 full and financial had something like 12/12 or whatever. Barely any pop to play on financial and waterfront was full. So we basically just couldn't play the game because the population was really badly distributed.

     

    People who win consistently shouldn't be punished by being pushed out of the only servers that are routinely populated. That's a quick way to lose players. Especially if it's a low-rank that gets carried several times in a row and turns "yellow"

    That isn't how threat works, you can't carry people, if that's the case they will turn silver first mission by themselves. If you are last on the scoreboard you will dethreat, bottom line.

    Displaying matchmaking ranks at its finest.

     

    Its good when it works, and everyone gets to show off how big their epeen is.

     

    When it doesnt work, i.e. APB matchmaking, its garbage and breeds toxicity. When you get dispatched into that mission, 3 golds vs 2 golds + 1 silver, you're immediately thinking to yourself WTF why do I have a silver??? balance??? fairness??? G1 are trash!!! fuck apb!!! I am going to dethreat.

     

    If the matchmaking ranks were hidden and you got put into the same 3v3 match, you would mark it down as a GG since the game isn't telling you off the bat...hey this guy is of lesser skill than the other 5 players in the match.

     

    I have been stuck at silver because I haven't touched the game in 3 years and my mouse is broken.

     

    I don't care, because I know what the problem is, if you are silver, you got a problem, simple as that. Also I have been face rolling with shaw all over, people keep crying that I am snapping lmao.

     

    EDIT: Oh shiz I just remember this whole thread is pointless because we have open threat districts and only closet silvers play there. Get real please, returning players will barf if you remove threat.

    A friend and I played with nothing but pistols to improve our pistol skills. He dropped to silver in the process. Our gameplay was absolute garbage while we figured out which tactics to use, but eventually improved. Someone who called backup and got us might get all salty and view it as an attempt at dethreating, but it legitimately wasn't. 

    Yes I can see how stat padding could be confused as dethreating.

    I get stutter but I don't know what people are talking about when they say they get no stutter with the advanced launcher. It has been awhile since I've used the APB advanced launcher but what settings are people configuring to get no stutter in APB..? Also what is this "mouse fix" I keep hearing about? 

     

    You take hardware acelleration off, and set the slider to zero then back to 6, in windows control panel mouse options. That's what people have told me.

     

    Any setting fixes the stutter for me, or maybe it's placebo effect.

    Clearly the game doesn't like my cpu, so I have tried many things to fix it, although it's playable. I am convinced it's my hard drive at this point, or the game.

    Just for Future point of reference if someone searches the forum and wants to know if these things are allowed or not.

     

    plz dont.

     

    He is right in what he says, advanced launcher should be part of the game, there is a clear advantage when I use it. The reason I use it, is because of the weird stutter / blip I get in gun fights, it seems to stop when I use it. What's weird, even if I use the launcher to play on ultra, I get no stutter on ultra. Something is messed up in the config/settings of the game.

    BattleEye will probably ban them instantly again so no worries.

    BattleEye doesn't get a bit salty because of a snarky comment here and there.
