thats ALL the servers. Im talking about just Jericho, our daily average is like 100

again over 10 years.... and our daily average is far from 500 lmao

those are individual accounts, not individual people. People reroll new accounts all the time. I hardly think its 10 million unique people since the beginning of the game lmao. Its taken them 10 years to reach that number. speaking of real life ads, anyone remember when G1 made this?

LMAO my favorite part of the article was where they claimed there are 10 million players AHAHAHAHAHAHA - thats also where i stopped reading. omg lol thanks for the good laugh.

Matchmaking has always been an issue since apb released. Thats not going to be fixed now. Also, you need to consider the population right now. Districts arent full. Theres one bronze and one silver on a good night and theyre hardly maxed out. If matchmaking worked to where it matched you with someone of equal skill, you would never play against another team. There just isnt a large enough diverse enough playerbase to make matchmaking work. we'll see if this phasing thing actually happens.,.. im not holding my breath.

Can you ban on site? Do you have the full GM abilities to teleport around the district, fly wherever you want, appear wherever you want? All you can do is report what you see. The reason you see the game "almost exactly as another player" is because all you are is another player, just with a few extra commands. You are virtual police and you arent even getting paid.

working on it but still happens. Guess they are working on fixing it the same time the engine upgrade "comes"

why anyone would volunteer to do this unpaid is beyond me. You arent even a full gm, have limited gm abilities, and are basically a glorified forum mod. Thats it. Heres a thought, hire some ACTUAL GM's to police the districts. I miss the days when they would show up and ban hammer the griefers etc.

that persons threat wont change if they are negative points. Without context its hard to prove that person was dethreating. He may have accidentally osmawed his teams car IDK but with negative points it has no effect on threat, same with the teammate with 0 points. You cant effect your threat with 0 points. Maybe osmaw was mad other player wasnt playing and took out his anger on him. Dethreating isnt "back", it never went away. Why? Because of the very reason you mentioned. Our server population does not support threat segregated districts. its been literally YEARS since we have had an healthy enough population to segregate districts. People want to play so they DT to get into the full district. They need to remove threat completely. It is completely meaningless as it is so easily manipulated.

Its not like they dont know how to lower their threat. Im not yelling at anyone Im just saying the gold vs lower threat isnt going to go away. They need to remove threat entirely. Theres not enough players to support the segregated districts.

sometimes I accidentally ready because of habit before I invite my teammates to group. Abandonmission allows us to group up before we have opposition. Or if we have a friend come on late we can leave mission and add them to get a new mission. In the grand scheme of things, there are much more pressing things to have them work on then removing the /abandonmission feature.... Well the reality is there will be golds vs lower threats because of server population. There isn't a healthy population in any threat group to sustain a district of that color with decent district population.

I dont see the problem. If you dont want to be cussed out, use /ignore. This is all on you.

Hi you must be new here. Theyve been saying "its coming this year" since 2012. Dont hold your breath because its unlikely the upgrade will ever see the light of day.

well peanut, when I say that, I mean Ive blown through all the content on not one, but 4 different characters and its the same every time. Its the same shit we already have. literally do something new. Its not that hard.

well I speak from someone who's been here from day one. Its the same shit different skin every "update". If you're happy with the same thing over and over in a different package, thats on you.

Dear Matt, No one cares about new contacts. We want a NEW DISTRICT. Finish Asylum and make it the mission district it was intended to be! JFC give us something actually NEW. If you're going to give us new contacts, put them in a new district! This is more same old same old.

I mean its not like you tested this at all.... #sarcasm

So Ive noticed when I die, I drop my weapon. When I kill someone I can pick up whatever gun they were using. Is this intentional? I seriously hope not....

Just wanted to let yall know if you are CRASHING or getting a APB reloaded is out of disc space error after launching after the latest patch and you are running discord and have overlays on, disable the discord overlays. EAC must think they are a hack *shrug*

Make sure you are running APB as administrator. I apparently wasn't and this fixed my issue.

Q4 2012

This...and their first "new content" is a fortnite ripoff game mode...... *eyeroll* How about finishing Asylum for a mission district like it was intended to be....or some actual "new content"

you can disagree all you want....but facts are facts. This was implemented when the server pop was much healthier and didn't work. It didn't work because people complained because servers didn't get full and they had no opp. It. Didnt. Work. Again, disagree all you want, it just tried and tested and failed. Also, you're an idiot if you think threat is an ACTUAL indicator of player skill. Ive carried my friend who literally cant kill anyone up to gold. Hes gold, but doesnt mean hes good. He goes silver when he plays by himself, and im 100% sure if we didn't play with him he'd be bronze. Ive seen someone gold one day and green the next. Its absolutely 0 indication of player skill.

This was done way back in the day, and threat locked districts did not work. Our server population would not support this then, and it absolutely doesn't now. We barely fill one district on a good night. I know it sounds ideal to you, but you'd be even more upset if they were removed. As you can see from the screenshots you submitted, that judging someone based on their threat, is unreliable as threat is easily manipulated as these players are in those screenshots. Just because you *think* you're grouped with silvers, doesn't mean they are actually silvers, and are probably just golds that dethreated just so they could join the district to have someone to play against. Rank is also never a good indication of someones skill, as people who have been banned or just wanted a new character re roll. I've been face rolled by a R9 plenty. Simply put, if they removed gold threat players from the bronze district, you would literally have no opposition or be waiting 30 min to an hour before you got a match against anyone. Also removing them does nothing because they can just dethreat and come right back. Until our server population is more healthy, and at least quadruple what it is now (which it hasn't been for the past few years and has been steadily declining), this simply is not a feasible solution. what needs to happen is threat being removed entirely as it literally means nothing as players can be whatever threat they want.

Title. Cant load into any mission district or social. Not just me, my husband is unable to as well.
