Extending BETA time frame to 3pm PDT
VanilleKeks replied to MattScott's topic in General Discussion Archive
For future reference I don't recommend attempting to copy a database of chars on the same day as the playtest. Copying the chars should have been done seperately by letting people log into the char select, but not enter districts. -

They need to fix it. Today. It won't be any better next week either so a short delay like that is pointless. Everyone was waiting for this so canceling it is far from what to do. -

Delaying it would be a death blow. -

I don't think weapons should be collectors items. Especially when the FFA is a direct upgrade to the OBIR. The lessened zoom is amazing in close range fights where you plan to pistol swap after bursts and doesn't affect long range play.

Legendary Beta Patch Announcement
VanilleKeks replied to Sakebee's topic in General Discussion Archive
This patch is so good that I will give you a free week without my standard reply. -
Such a drop in players isn't something that I would attribute to one factor alone. Allthough going back to BE is unfortunate for sure. I have not played since BE because I have an issue that prevents me from starting the game and I simply can't be bothered to invest time to solve it right now. Add onto that my memories of the last time we had BE and that certainly doesn't increase my motivation. With Covid lockdowns being lifted slowly, people are also returning to their normal lives to some degree. I am now able to go back to limited versions of my gym and martial arts training. That alone is a lot of hours per week where I'm not playing anything. I hope that BE is a short term solution. It musn't stay.

Nice patch. Can't wait to try the open beta on my new PC. It should run really nice on all the cores I got. Please remove spotter.

To be frank, I don't know where they hid that character all this time.

Misery and Oblivion aren't great but they are certainly viable if you got the skill.

Joker Renovation Patch Announcement
VanilleKeks replied to Sakebee's topic in General Discussion Archive
Could you add Muzzle Break to the Joker Store? For some reason it's the only 195 mod that you can't purchase (iirc). It is essential on some weapons. Also please remove spotter. -
DELETE / BIG NERF Explosives Guns
VanilleKeks replied to JOSELA's topic in General Discussion Archive
I have played so much OPGL I know the flight route the nade is gonna take just by looking at the enemy animation when they fire. Now if only my brain would use this power for something actually useful. -

OPGL nades already leave a smoke trail mid air. The majoriy of peole just don't see it because they turned it off with their configs. -
DELETE / BIG NERF Explosives Guns
VanilleKeks replied to JOSELA's topic in General Discussion Archive
The problem with explosives is that their effectiveness is very subjective to what kind of enemy player you are facing. It's not even close to being as consistent as normal weapons. Explosive guns have an entry level of skill close to an HVR, PMG or ATAC. Getting killed by them can sure be frustrating but almost all explosive weapons become useless as you get harder enemies. A fully kitted pioneer makes the OSMAW completely useless. Blowtorch and High Burn Fuel make it basically pointless to even attempt shooting a pioneer at full health. The EOLs aren't that good, with the exception of the Deep Impact which actually takes a decent amount of practice before it becomes decent. The strongest contenders are the OPGL and Volcano. These have the potential to be insanely good, yet you rarely ever see anyone that is very successful with them. I think people get a wrong impression of just how viable explosives are, because what you usually experience is someone making a nicely timed swap and win a specific stage. The people that actually main these weapons tend to generally not be that successful, because of inconsistency. -- Very few people in this game even bother to learn explosives to such a degree that they can use them against high threat players and be successful. Even after all of my practice there are people that I can't use explosives against, no matter what I do. What I think is the problem is the people using explosives against people who do not have access to the counters. There are a disgusting amount of high ranking but low threat veterans that farm new players in bronze districts using explosives. This is something that needs to be changed. Explosives will most likely not be removed and I think they do have their place. If measures are taken to ensure a fair environment where each side has access to explosives and their counters, it actually encourages skillfull play of this weapon role. Yes, these weapons reward skillfull usage. They're not on OSCAR level of mastery but I would encourage anyone to try and use these against decent players. You will very quickly realize how useless you can be. -
Sadly BE was essentially useless after only a short time in the previous attempt. Therefore I have taken matters into my own hands by only playing OPGL with Percs. This makes it so neither me or the cheaters have to actually aim in a firefight, which closes the gap.

Hello please remove spotter mod

That is a horrible idea. There are many people that have macro capable mice and don't use it for anything malicious. I specifically got a mouse with 8 buttons on the side to set up hotkey macros for my workplaces software, as well as Photoshop, Premiere Pro and After Effects. I also did custom keybinds for Final Fantasy XIV Online, since I just started that too. Should I now lose my 8 year old account that hasn't even had so much as a warning? Because of something that has nothing to do with APB? Can you try thinking outside of yourself?
