    report them

    It's cute that you guys think those reports go anywhere. That thing is a placebo, just as it's always been.

     

    A simple glance around is all it takes to see that.

     

    then dont report them and suffer through the 6 hours of racism you chose to endure.

    It been adressed in chaotic threads where authors added their own controversal points, which made the whole threads confusing. 

     

    I meant by LO themselves, they've commented about these issues, and for some they've commented more than a few times about them.

    I decided to adress some things, that need to be fixed in one way or another. And I belive we all can agree on this topic.

     

    • Hundrets and thousands of mails with consumable items in it
    • RPF Fang annoying range
    • Delete current loggin screen out of the existence so it can never be brought back, and replace it with a new one, or old one.
    • Rebalance shotguns once again, so every shotgun is playable while keepin 2 htk for pump shotguns
    • Fix VOIP (Id like VOIP to work as good as its used to)
    • Engine upgrade
    • Matchmaking (no more 2golds vs 2silvers)

     

    If you have any other ideas that I forgot to mention - bring it on, and I will add it to the list. 

    Keep in mind that this needs to be a list of what community rly wants so we help LO understand us, therefore I expect there wont be no big discussion wars over things.

    everything you've listed has a change in the works, and have been addressed multiple times throughout the past year.

    It's just a semantic argument that gets brought up at times. 

     

    They say hackers have knowledge, cheaters are more like script kiddies. 

     

    It's an effort to not give more cred to cheaters than they deserve through the rigid use of language. 

    APB is an egomaniac magnet lmao

    cheating =/= hacking.

    So someone using an ESP on APB isn't hacking?

     

    Obtaining information which otherwise would be restricted to the user to gain an advantage... which is cheating... but it isn't hacking?

    5. Do something about weapons which people don't use because they are way out of balance ? (Bull shark , Far , Cobra etc ?) Analyse the players data on why they use only limited number of weapons !!! 

     

    Just because a weapon is off-meta, doesn't mean it's bad or needs to be buffed. Bullshark is a niche weapon that is fun to use every now and then (like most legendaries.) The FAR is a star reskin, and the star is probably the most balanced gun in APB, the Cobra is meant to be a full-auto carbine (similar to how the ar97 is a full auto obeya rifle) and it acts exactly as such. 

     

    They are well aware of what weapons are used the most, and which weapons need to be changed. The only thing they need help with is applying the correct changes to these weapons to get them where they need to be. Prototype districts are provided to the players so that they can give feedback and help make balance decisions for whatever weapon(s) being tested.

    Was RIOT necessary ? Why are we trying to get on the bandwagon ? There is a reason why this game is unique... Just let it be and fix the exiting issue and concentrate on the Engine Upgrade ! 

    I know changes are necessary for any service/product ! But you terribly failed to analyse what the community wants ! Soo much waste of resource on shitty RIOT.  Get your shit together Mr. Matt . No joke  

    Either way, RIOT was in the works before LO, so it makes sense that they would finish it, but at the same time, it is something that nobody asked for.

    Put APB on Stadia. This will prevent hacking, people using graphics mods of all kinds and will also instantly drive more people towards APB than any current type of advertising could even dream of as Google will advertise it for you and you will be able to allow ANYONE with even the shittest PC to play APB on the best settings. Honestly you dont need to thank me for the solution although I dont know why you didnt think of it your self @MattScott

    I don't know why you think this would prevent hacking.

    I don't know why you have a problem with people using configs so that their game can run at 100fps+ without any stutters (stutters happen way too much on high/max settings.) 

    I don't know why you somehow don't know that newer hardware runs the game just as bad as older hardware, I have an rtx 2070 and an r7 2700x and still have performance issues that render the game unplayable at anything above minimum.

     

    I never really understood the "fuck configs, get a better PC" mentality. The people who complain and say that configs are OP and unfair are the same people who play at 60fps max settings and claim it's "perfect" after disregarding the frameskips that happen almost every minute. If you're the type of player to play this game at max settings and at low fps, with situations where you'd randomly lose 140-300~ frames and your game freezes, you probably don't give an ounce of a fuck about performance, so why are you shitting on optimization methods that other players choose to use? Every player is allowed to play at minimum settings, no matter what hardware they have. Every player is allowed to boot up AAPBL and make their game Claypb, no matter what hardware they have. If you choose to play this game at max settings and 50-80fps with a shit ton of hiccups and clutter, that's your choice, that's the type of player you are, but don't act like everyone else needs to play how you play.

     

    Stadia will be a failure of a project, and APB on Stadia would make no sense, since you'd be paying to play a F2P TPS. Also, the amount of money you would have to spend to receive ideal performance through Stadia on APB would drive anyone away. Not to mention the fact that game streaming for competitive shooters or just shooters overall isn't really a good idea, nobody wants to play with more input lag than their mice/keyboard already provide.

    This is upsetting to me.

     

    Little Orbit has given the entire player base a chance to get involved in weapon balance.

    Pages and pages of people giving their opinion on weapons they hadn't even tried yet, and once testing started and people got the guns mailed to them, no one went into a prototype district and everyone just uses the free guns in mission and FC districts.

     

    At this point no matter what LO decides to do with thr RFPs, if you dont like it, you have no one to blame but yourselves.

    I feel like most people just join the prototype districts, equip the guns, shoot them for 5/10 minutes (maybe even do a mission,) and then leave. I can't really blame them though.

    Shield is broken, med spray is pretty much useless for most players since CA is so meta, boombox does exactly what it was designed to do, but doesn't really do much in the first place so idk how you could change it in any significant way, satchel charge and epinephrine are probably the most "balanced" consumables in the game, Weapon cache/vtines day box are fine, but the secret santa box feels so useless after the christmas event is over, and I wish you could open them off-season .

     

    As for medium/large resupply boxes, I don't understand why the medium boxes exist since it seems like a huge waste of JT, and large boxes are just better. Large boxes are being nerfed so no comment.

    If you want to do away with abusive monitization how about removing lootboxes entirely and show us that you are not about that abusive monetization 

    Too bad the "abusive monetization" in question doesn't reward the player with any rewards that give significant advantages in game, and most of the loot is garbage anyway. Most people that buy JMBs just buy them when they have 100-500 g1c leftover to blow on something.

     

    JMBs are fine. Probably the most harmless form of gambling in a rated M F2P game that the industry has ever seen.

    1. What to do when you are running in the open with no cover and an enemy that has a good cover starts shooting at you

     2. What to do when 2 Enemies shoot at you from opposite directions

    3. What to do when you are in a 2v1 fight against strong enemies and not enough players in server to call backup

    4. What to do when people camp very good areas and you can't kill them because it has only one entrance

     5. What to do when both your primary and secondary run out of ammo in combat

     6. What to do when enemies run away with capture objective and all of your team can't drive

    That's it, Tell me answers for these 6 Questions.

    The answer for questions 1-3 is simply "Don't get caught out in the open." You have literal tanks in this game that people can't shoot through, just carplay. Everyone else does it.

     

    For #4, the typical answer would be "volcano/dmr/hvr from render distance, or just opgl" but honestly, there are garbage spots in APB, and if you need to attack them, you're most likely going to lose. Almost every mission is in favor of the defending side, so if a spot is trash, then you're sorta screwed.

     

    #5... I don't think I've ever been in this situation. Field supplier is the first character mod you unlock, and consumable large ammo boxes are given to you quite often. Also, joker vending machines/contacts/car spawners are everywhere, I don't know how one could run into this problem consistently.

     

    #6, Hard damage their vehicle with weapons that deal high hard damage. Can't catch up? Cut them off somehow. Can't seem to cut them off? Well, that's just another situation where the defending side simply exploits the massive disadvantage that the attacking side is always put in. You're probably out of luck in this situation too, but it isn't impossible to win it.

    Rank up your characters, don't take away reasons to progress in APB, it's almost pointless in the first place.

    RTW APB was meant to be a game that pushed limits super hard, and blow everything out of the water. With rapid advancements in the tech/software industry, it's easy for projects that are only 2 years old to become completely replaced and almost obsolete due to a newer and more developed product.

     

    The game (back then) was way ahead of it's time, but it just wasn't managed properly or pushed properly. the 100,000,000 meme is thrown around a lot, and honestly, I have no idea if it's accurate at all or where the figure came from in the first place, but with how much it cost Rockstar to make GTA V, I don't find it too crazy or Farfetched if 100M was actually put into the game.

    Your way of thinking is totally wrong, their aim is to increase the player base and make it fair and fun to everyone including the new players without ruining the old ones experience.  So adding something that is only for the old players is pretty much breaking the game to the new ones. There must be other ways of throwing away cash, just need more thinking.

    But new players need money for early/mid/early-late game, money sinks beyond contact purchases are irrelevant to them, since their main focus is to spend more money on leases to rank up, and possibly build up enough money to buy a legendary (most new players are eager to get their hands on their favorire legendary.)

     

    The thing I suggested is just another very late end game unlockable that experienced and long-time players can obtain. It's catered towards the same players as the Joker crown is aimed towards, and it's pretty much as harmless as the Joker crown.

    Why add a gimmick that isn't fair to everyone?

    not many could do that and it doesnt really serve any benefit that i see

    QoL purchase that players can dump their money into. I don't know how you consider it unfair just because it's priced so high. With that logic, everyone who owns legendaries are "unfair" because new players dont have any.

    you cant have it for one without the other

    it wouldnt be fair to all

    So you're saying content that is aimed towards older players with loads of playtime and money shouldn't be able to invest their almost worthless APB cash into a quality of life unlock with a ridiculously high price tag for the sake of being an efficient money sink, just because a new player can't afford it? It's not even gate keeping, it's just adding more content that costs a lot of money since a lot of players have nothing to spend it on. If every piece of content in the game had to be accessible to all players at any given time, then what would be the point in APBs progression in the first place?

    you can not tax yourself into prosperity

    the people who have common sense would walk away instead if they had to pay that much

    most normal people cant imagine 10 mil in the game and some cant even imagine having 1 mil

    there were posts how people cant make money to buy the temp weapons from contacts  so how would they pay 10 mil ?

    This suggestion was for veterans with a lot of money accumulated over the past few years. I don't expect new players to get $10m within a year easily or anything (although, trading in this game is really profitable, and you could get $10m if you played a lot.)
