A Petition For Stronger Anti Hack Methods
VanilleKeks replied to Darkzero3802's topic in General Discussion Archive
I've criticised the way both LO and G1 handle cheaters several times. The difference is that I tried to put some effort into it. Not some "we the people demand" crap like this thread is. Apart from that, what you quoted was me making fun of the OP, not my actual opinion or anything meant to have substance in the first place. I haven't played a lot of EAC APB because I moved countries, but I could already tell from BE that it was significantly better for quite some time. I would assume EAC does similarly. Fact of the matter is that these type of demand threads rarely contain anything useful and are often made by players who barely manage to be average. Cry elitism all you want, but the opinions change throughout the skilltiers and you rarely see any top tier player say the game is "infested". Though, by the logic these people use, all the top tier players would be cheating and cover for their friends of course. As for actual blatant cheaters, I do agree that some sort of secondary mechanism to deal with the helicopters would be nice. -
A Petition For Stronger Anti Hack Methods
VanilleKeks replied to Darkzero3802's topic in General Discussion Archive
We the remaining silvers of APB Reloaded are sick and tired of the yrs of lax policies against better players! Bring back name & shame! Ban people after 10 reports! Prevent the best players from leaving fightclub! Add the riot gas to fightclub so that they suffer in there! Fund the new silvian reich! -
There is one reason. While I usually use the DMR-AV, i do have a HMS SD ready in case I get a really sweet spot. The zoom becomes useful because there is a sweetspot right outside render distance where you no longer see names, but you can still hurt people. It's still a bad mod but when you use it in those situations the extra zoom makes is significantly more easy to two shot at that range.

Fight club does not need more driving. One of the reasons fightclub is nice is simply because there isn't a cargamer in a 4 slot pioneer at every engagement. If anything, I'd like cars to be removed from FC entirely.

Make A Server Selection Option For NA and EU
VanilleKeks replied to Darkzero3802's topic in General Discussion Archive
Don't think we will be able to freely choose like that before 3.5. If they merge things now, there will be people like me who can enjoy their NA chars on 20ms, and people who get stuck at 300-400ms. This is pretty pointless to ask for considering it's not really possible before 3.5, and already announced with the phasing feature after 3.5. To clarify, they could probably merge servers if they wanted to, but nothing else really. The merging process will probably take ages and further delay 3.5, most likely. -
What is it with people wanting real life punishment for cheaters? If it's an official competition in a recognized e-sport I can understand, but if it ain't, how about we make the state focus on actual harm. I can't understand this mindset. "This guy cheated against me in a game, he should go to jail!" It makes me chuckle though.

FBW firing mechanic is bad for the game.

some hero told me some time ago that re-enabling the token on the gamersfirst account page fixes this issue

If you have a plan LO .... and behold

This isn't limited social skills, this is just (I am on two forum warnings so this post was censored). Most IT guys I ever met were a little awkward is all. -
If you have a plan LO .... and behold
VanilleKeks replied to CaptainSloth2Guns's topic in General Discussion Archive
Man this sloth guy is so uncomfortable to be around and I'm only reading his posts on a forum. I think for being in the "IT" industry, which could be anything from customer service on the phone to server management for all we know, this post just reeks of ignorance. Regardless of APB, you do realize that there are things called engine limitations? If you could properly implement any feature within any engine just by having the right code, why would all these companies even bother updating their engines? APB is such a code jungle precisely because they did this very thing. They implemented things by heavily modifying an older engine with custom code. Sure, it does (kinda) work in the end but look where this mess got us? It makes no sense to implement further custom code when the newer unreal engine literally supports these features without having to make a mess in the code. -
I am in tears, truly a heart-wrenching post.

Why I get random trade locks for anything I trade?

The go to car for any above average player is the Pioneer, not the vegas. The only car I think needs a nerf is the pioneer and then buff the other high end cars to be on par with vegas or something

June 2019 - Next Steps with RIOT
VanilleKeks replied to MattScott's topic in General Discussion Archive
As I said in the other thread, I would take it down until its fixed (preferably after 3.5). It will take months to make it good and I don't see it doing us any favors being the new "frontline" of APB in this state (The BETA tag only gives so much lenience). I'm glad that you are considering this option, I respect it when people own up to their mistakes. -
I would like RIOT to be put on hold and the resources used to develop it put towards the engine upgrade. Once we have the engine upgrade at a stable state, please re-introduce an improved version of RIOT as a seasonal event or something similar. I do not think having this as a permanent game mode is a good idea.

I don't wanna be that guy but keep in mind that this person most likely bought all the visual and audio assets etc. and then coded the game on their own. It's still impressive but making those assets is also a ton of work.

Where are the servers located now?
VanilleKeks replied to Alani's topic in General Discussion Archive
if i remember correctly, during the big patch day when someone pointed this out originally, lixil said that the team is still working on it and that ping should go back to normal once done. I don't think they moved the servers either.
