    I'm noticing the new titles color is a bit confusing as it is of the exact same red color for enemies names...any thoughts on that?

     

    Maybe something slightly different could work better, idk.

     

     

     

    Ive already had problems with this, see someone with a RED title while in a firefight and i start shooting at them because i think its one of the enemy team. This is really bad design, make it PURPLE or something instead. RED and GREEN are off-limits.

    added more detail to costume

    Name: Zenith

    Server: Citadel

     

    My character decided to dress up as Starlight from "The Boys" this year.

     

    I thought it would be funny to make it look like a real halloween costume, so i didnt edit her body or face, its just her with a costume and a wig! Can still see Zenith underneath.

    You can still spot her original hair under the wig xD

     

    Finished costume (3rd pic without wig):

    Trying on the costume (PS these pics are older, before costume was finished):

    IMO cheaters are not the problem, the district lobby is. New players just push one of the big "Financial" or "Waterfront" boxes and get sent to empty districts.

     

    Theres no good explanaition for how the threat in districts work, especially since its been broken for literally years, and silver district has become gold district! How can new players know that?

    Rediculous, #How To Open Topics And Get More Attention And Reputation UOPS 🙂

    Well, i saw this car on vacation and immediately it made me think of apb xD Been waiting forever to see the mirage, now i found it in real life! Had to get a pic for the forums (yes yes, you are welcome np)

    It is clear that alot of effort and thought has been put into this mode. Its more than just another battle royale mode, and i like the last stage where you drop 250$ at a time, so you have to stand near the van for longer. The mode is pretty fun if you play with a group.

     

    If the bugs are sorted out and some adjustments are made (like the cooldown for hazmat suits the spawns), it could be a pretty solid alt. game mode. It is however not really building on the strengths of the game, so mission districts and improvements there should always be top priority imo.

    "I’ll be working on an exact roadmap that we can publish soon, but over the coming months we would like to add a new mode, maps, clothes, guns, vehicles and a new matching system for competitive play."

     

    12 months later: one new weapon from joker box.

     

    Well, so far it seems like they went in way over their heads with the apb project

    Was fun to test this, was even in team with Androvald the first round 😄

    The good:

    - Map changes:

    All the added blockades, scaffolding etc. looked really cool. Seems like you can easily find cover, and also some spots like certain rooftops are now reachable

    - Tutorial in loading screen

    This is a good idea, gives you an idea of what to do when you get in. For me it was bugged and only displayed the first time though. After my game crashed it reverted to the standard load

    - Always something to do

    The cash, hazmat suits, guns and devices for turning on the bombs are scattered around the map pretty well, so you can always find some without having to walk too far.

    -Its better than fightclub

    RIOT is way more involved than fightclub, which has always been a lazy type of gamemode

    - 100 players

    Nice to see a mode with 50/50 players that seems pretty stable

     

    The bad:

    - Its BR in APB

    In PUBG for example, the gunplay is kinda wonky. Its more of a heavy, slow type of handling. Everyone is kinda on the same level and RNG plays in alot. APB on the other hand, is super responsive and precise. Therefore, APB vets who have played it for 5 years + can demolish newcomers since they are used to the fast gunplay and movement. It really doesnt suit APB that well. Also, usually the maps are outdoors on islands or so. APB is in a city environment, and the city blocks getting greyed out instead of a circle are way less intuitive. Its not easy enough to figure out where to go to escape the dead zones.

    - Sound ambience

    Like others have pointed out, it gets eerily quiet without traffic or pedestrians running around. Some ambient music or sound effects would make a big impact on how it feels i think

    - Weapons

    Not sure about the weapons available in this mode. Osmaw and true ogre were really common in the 4-6 rounds i tested. Also, spawning with the snubnose is really annoying when everyone around you are heavily geared up

    -Colors

    APB has always had a certain estetic, the street style, with realistic looking assets and graffiti on the walls. In RIOT, there are glowing colors everywhere. All the items are loke glowing pylons in red, yellow, green etc. Also the gaswalls everywhere looks a bit cartoony and unrealistic. I know some seasonal events like valentines with the crates and guns also has this more colorful styles, but those are just short events, not how the game looks permanently.

    I know this was a very early look and just a stress test, but those are my thoughts about the mode so far anyway.

     

    ps. if we are not allowed to share screenshots i can remove them

    Ive crashed two times in riot so far, during 40mins or so.

     

    Edit: after  second crash i cannot start the client. Get crash report, and when i try to repair client it says "Error- 1 file download failed Biniaries\APBprogram:statusApply

     

    Edit2: ok, seems apb.exefor the otw apb got blocked by bitdefender. Maybe thats what caused it
