    Ya alot of that had to do with real time worlds, the original makers of the game. They hired out of office coders for some of the game features, then had to hire other coders to figure out how to put it all together. In the end it was like a puzzle you had to put together with a hammer. THen it was held together with duct tape. Thats why G1 had such a hard time adding/fixing/editing code. It was a mess. 

    Weird tho huh, UML (Unified Modeling Language) did exist back then. :^)

    Did anybody asked for RIOT? LO is fully to blame for it. Nobody asked for it.

    Didn't say anyone (someone probably likes it) did ask for it. My point being even with the EU, APB wont get a bigger population. APB isn't as unique anymore as it used to be, wanna derp arround or do some racing i'll go play GTA Online, want to play a "professional" shooter i'll hit up Rainbow Six / CSGO, hell if i wanted to play BR (lol) i'd go with PUBG / Fortnite (atleast these have the /pop to do it :^)

     

    Yes, everything above is pretty much speculation (and i hope im wrong), but im convinced that the EU wont raise the population. Especially if the EU runs like dogshit and we got 0 content in the first months after release. And im not talking about adding 1 or 2 new contacts for more grind or adding a new jmb to the store and call it content (lol).

     

    And yes im aware how big of a task it is to update the engine and no its not LO's fault, they are looking for something to give APB back that uniqueness or something to compete with other games but Riot isn't it.

    Not sure if you're just trolling (although I stongly suspect you are) but this is an utterly ridiculous arguement.

     

    Nobody stays green for more than a couple of missions, I once made a character just to test this, I didn't get a single kill yet after just a handful of missions I was silver.

     

    Golds in bronze are just cancer pure and simple and it's killing this game.

     

    Anyway we all know that golds hate being teamed with lower skilled players because they are such a bunch of tryhards.

    Oh yes, it was trollishly meant but also a stab at the fact that the current matchmaking system is still inadequate, broken, not working or however you want to put it. 

     

    Obviously dethreathing is still a problem but you should be able to play with friends.

    Many people here still confuse hackers with blackhats.

    A hacker is a whitehat programmer who can be compared to a locksmith. A blackhat destroys, a hacker finds holes and plugs them. Please everyone, use the correct terminology

    Whitehat is someone that finds holes/flaws in systems and informs the company or organization about said holes/flaws so they can be patched. Usually they are also called Pentester or Penetration Tester. The term Forensic IT Specialist falls under it aswell as they investigate how someone got in and abused an allready compromised system.

     

    Blackhat is someone who wants to use said system for malicious or other purposes for which the system wasnt designed or intended. A Blackhat usually doesnt destroy as the goal is manipulation or information gathering for monetary gain or political purpose. 

     

    The term hacker is used for both these days.

     

    A DDoS can be a form of blackhat "hacking" as you are disrupting a working service for ones own evil purposes.

    But if Matt decided to DDoS APB himself for testing purposes it would be a form of Whitehat. :^)

     

    40Gbps DDoS attack. Thats some serious dedication on nuking a ded game. :^)
