I hear ya but this has been discussed many times without any success so don't get your hopes up. Just saying...

My ticket of 14 days ago is still not answered to. With this timeframe in mind I can't blame him for posting on the forums.

Here's what most likely is going to happen: Not enough testers in test districts to get proper LO judgement LO listens to average Joe 'Neh' and only nerfs the jumping, just to shut them up LO listens to the tryhards and fanboys crying that their precious overpowered NTEC is being questioned so they won't change anything else but the jumping that hardly anyone requested Imho, there's really no need to discuss this because I think LO has already made up its mind.

Thorn knickers.

Smart and smart-a$$ are two different things and get mixed up very easily. J/k XD

Whenever my team and me (preset group) face a group of enemies with a low rank we always switch to the default weapons like Star and NTEC. Bronze, silver or gold districts, it doesn't matter. The only thing that matters is to get a bit more fair fight between them and us. The only advantage we have then is map and mechanics knowledge. Also, if those new players are still learning then it doesn't hurt to make the new players aware that you're coming, IE: honk, fire and miss a few bullets before the fight starts etc. We do this every time and it works like a charm, the new players get a bit of an advantage and it's giving them a bit more time to prepare.

Good point.

You're absolutely right. Three weeks ago we where playing in a silver district vs 3 ragehackers the whole time. A GM entered our district and we where 'throwing names' of the ragehackers towards the GM, asking to check them and follow them for a few days (we did too). Throwing names didn't help one bit, they're not banned and still ragehacking every day. Bottom line: throwing names won't help, they're not getting banned anyway.

They keyword is 'day', getting 200JT requires loads, and I mean loads of hours of gameplay.

It's sugarcoating, the amount of time you have to put into this is way to much. People who have jobs and who have not that much time to play aren't gaining that much from it. Making every opposed mission worth 10 JT is a good start in 'fixing' the issue. The RND as it is now is just proper bs, plain and simple.

I've played over 15 games and I haven't passed 13 JT yet, it's not even worth it.

The population on those servers is extremely low (8 over 4 districts atm) and there's already 2 rage aimbotters in collecting their precious rewards without any district supervision of a GM. I see you thought this one through...

It's about fkn time.

I'll check the reward first and if they're same ones from last years then I won't even bother.

I'd love to see a car that doesn't make it crash/spin on pavements, sidewalks and terrain changes since some parts of both maps seem to do this for years without being fixed.

I'm pretty sure TK'ing isn't ment to kill your teammates on purpose. Knowing that you can TK and that you'll be kicked if you do it to much is a great reason for a normal player to change his/her tactics from spay-and-pray to a more tactical approach for the objective. TK doesn't need to be removed, it's fine as it is.

It is yes, there are multiple companies who provide free VPN services, google is your friend.

Nah, I live in the Netherlands and if I want lootboxes then I'll just boot up a VPN, problem solved.

Nope, it's the high amount of closet cheaters and macro kids who are ruining it in the silver/gold servers and they're not being delt with by LO in any way. Lots of average legit golds get downranked by these idiots and they turn to bronze district to play vs players who do not use 3rd party crapware. I can't blame them. The first part in fixing this 'problem' is to start at the source of the problem: cheats/macros and then go from there. But then again, if LO decides to ban macro users and closets in silver/gold districts then the population would shrink dramatically and in a game with an extreme low population it could be the final nail in the coffin. I kinda agree on this one. Actually, there are 2 clans who are taking the p*ss at this. Both of those clans where cheating hard before Fairfight entered, they went total BS while it was active and now with the new and improved (/sarcasm) anticheat they started wallhacking only mode. One of them is even using an old method like one of the biggest cheat clans APB has ever known used to use: wallhack rotate; only 1 wallhacker per team and a differend one each round. Reporting them is useless because of the lack of skill GM's have to detect a cheater. Pointless....

Congrats, you just made me giggle...

NTEC need a huge nerve, period. It's been an overpowered pain in the @$$ way to long already.

Rly.... You're playing that card now? Lol, ok...

I always kill that process manually and never have issues nore crashes. In my case, it's completely unnecessary and is not required to run the game at all.

I guess you didn't see the latest Q&A on LO's official twitch channel. Matt confirmed that the old apb login is coming back to save time within the engine upgrade.
