^This was GamersFirst's doing. (not LO) You pay for what you pay for. If it gets nerfed then it's more than likely a good reason for it. The N-TEC nerf was quite obvious that it had to be done. With this nerf other weapons can come into play and there will be more weapons to choose from. Even with this nerf, the N-TEC is still really good.

It's time to use the good old "Field Supplier" or the "Ammo Modification" for your vehicle.

I agree with WorldDominator on this one. I've always thought to myself that CSG/JG should be equal when it comes to rate of fire.

Just this one change makes this patch amazing.

Most of the mods mentioned are not even in the meta. I can agree with your standpoint with Steel Plating but thats about it. I'd nerf it even more than whats mentioned in your post. (6%/9%/12%.) Orange mods have a downside already which is their cooldown. I dont know why High Burn Fuel was not even mentioned in this post though. One of the insanely good vehicle mods which should've never been introduced to the game but here we are. (thanks G1)

I would say none of them, they are all pretty "meh". But, if I'd have to choose one I'd go with the EOL "The Hammer". It uses percussion grenades which explodes on impact. Previously I'd say go with the "Kickback" but considering the Low-Yield nerf then I dont think its worth using anymore.

Could you show an example of what you mean? It's an "arcady" third-person shooter after all. It's not meant to very realistic, if that's what you're aiming for. I dont know.

I'm well aware of your point and I understand what you mean. If a mission is unbalanced, its not the players' fault or the bounty system's fault. It's quite clearly the matchmaking that needs rework too. All of this is a work in progress. They didnt mention any matchmaking balancing in the 2020 roadmap, but I think everyone can agree on that matchmaking needs a rework.

If you or your friends think you've been banned falsely, the best thing to do is to send a ticket to customer support. (you could also try message LO Staff on discord regarding your previous ticket) None of us "forum folks" can help with that. Hope it works out!

When you play a mission despite it being against vets or rookies, the N5/P5 system should NEVER interfere with your mission. Because when you press "K" to ready up, you are getting ready for a PvP experience with an objective to play for. Once the mission has started, the only goal is to eliminate your opponents and finish the objective. Without being disturbed by other players. This does not we have to remove the bounty system completely. It can be changed to the point where it does not have any impact on your missions.

This is one of those small things that encourage players to grind for something. Would be nice to see this comeback, as a "weekend" only thing perhaps.

Agreed.

I'm confused. Also, scroll wheel shooting is not a "macro".

I'm all for new "valentine" weapons. OBIR and OCA would be sweet.

Sooo... players can modify their game to where it is against TOS?

I thought it was an interesting and fun game mode. Although RIOT requires quite alot of polish to make it a solid game mode for APB. It had quite a few issues and didnt attract many players.

Welcome aboard, Sakebee!

Is there rules for having a streamer or that all participants have to record their POV? I would suggest having all players record their POV. Is there a website or docx where we can see all teams who are signed up? (brackets, times, etc...)

Can you play as 3 in one team?

I enjoyed that threat system more than what we currently have. Gave you a reason to keep playing for a higher rank or to keep the highest rank possible. Those good old days where there was messages that would highlight that a Gold 10 player entered the district.

I think you run into both. I do believe there are players that use some form of software to gain advantage. The game is free-to-play so cheaters will "come and go". The "cheater" issue is being handled a lot better now than what it did previously, imo. Although, there are really good players and many are veteran players who have been here for years.

Like everyone else said, send a ticket to the support team. Hope they can work it out for you.

I've heard of like two other people recently having issues with F-Secure running in the background when trying to start APB. It would just close the game for some reason. Seems like disabling antivirus helps. If someone is having issues please try the same, either way I'll report it further.

Very nice idea! In-game name: Exomie

Congrats to the winners!
