  1. Matt's Q&A starts 15 mins in and is condensed into less than 30 minutes:
  2. Featuring my experience of the new engine and Matt's Q&A condensed to under 30 minutes:
  3. I wish. It would mean I'm psychic too. Lottery tickets baby! For the news man! Edit: smiley face added to show I'm not upset.
  4. Nothing wrong with what you did today, people have opinions and it's all good. You could come back all slick then people think you aren't genuine. If you want to get better just do it for you. X Oh and happy birthday.
  5. Skay's discord appeared on screen for a few seconds. I was screen recording I'll have to make sure I don't leak it!
  6. To celebrate the beta stream we'll go again with Pay2grief this week. Let's make the potential prize £1000,000 and a legendary (probably a hitchhiker) for whoever gets the most wins in the 5 rounds. Waterfront, griefer station 1045 uk time. Inb4 @Yeedman tells me off for posting here so late.
  7. Look out for community events too to make some friends and help you practise the mechanics of the game. But really the best way to get better is to keep playing. Once you're level 30 you could try some fight club to practise shooting but shooting is only one part of the puzzle when it comes to missions. Try to group with like minded people and do as many as you can.
  8. Popularity goes down when they stop playing but there will be loads of people still playing who otherwise wouldn't be. It might even be properly dead right now. I think once the engine is actually live and they've joined the servers seemlessly and threat, weapons game modes are sorted or real close then that's a good time to reach out to the big gun streamers to spread the word. It would definitely be a bad time to do that right now. I feel friday is really for current players. And of course no offense taken. I feel incredibly lucky to be in this list especially as for my entire apb life I've been more of an events person and a bit of a designer. When I held my biggest events I didn't even know what streaming was. I wish I did. Nowadays I just enjoy doing it. But what am I? A streamer? A Youtuber? A maths teacher lol.
  9. Not really true. I mean if I choose a game to stream based on viewer numbers (of the game) hoping to grow an audience then sure, hands up I'm a parasite. But an actual big streamer playing a game? Absolutely they bring players to it. A tonne of people only play Sea of Thieves because they saw summit do it. This isn't an advertising thing and they asked youtubers too not just streamers. It's just that they have to stream.
  10. He couldn't get griefed in the closed test environment. I think if they introduce the phasing that puts people in districts with only people doing missions he may be able to play again. But him doing missions in districts where anyone can freely join... just not gonna happen.
  11. Yeah true but it would make it harder for the 8 man group to get a mission as they'd need a big team to go against. Assuming that the district is fully populated everyone else should be fine. The point I was making was to someone who replied to someone else who asked why only clans should be able to make groups of 8. For missions 8 is too big anyway. 4 is only too small when say 5 people log on and are up for missions and 1 person misses out. If 6 people want to do missions then 2 smaller groups of 3 should be fine or they just need to grow up a bit. It's like when I ask kids at school to get into groups of 3, 4 or 5 and some kids ask 'can we have a 6?' I tell them to just be 2 groups of 3 and sit near each other. Maybe there can be a mechanic to be linked to another group so when big teams are formed they always try to put friendly groups together.
  12. That is a very good point! Why are clothes free, vehicles 1.5k and guns stuck and un-buyable? If we had the Armas gun dealer we could also circumvent the clunky inventory and rearrange the weapons or at least keep a set few in their inventories. It takes me ages to find a gun when I want to switch in a mission or fight club. Also the gun capacity is 125 and some people are actually at full capacity. Your Armas gun dealer would solve this.
  13. But how does being in a clan effect that? Also if their group size is too big for them to get a mission they need to wake up and choose to split into 2 smaller groups.
  14. But on one hand you're saying the streamers are too small and haven't done anything but on the other you're saying they interact with the community in a piss poor way. Friday is all about the community and letting the current APB community know what's going on. Kemp's stream is the largest regular APB stream. What he pulls in other games is irrelevant. There are people who watch him play APB that get all their APB news via him. They don't come on the forums or follow the Twitter. It's all through Kemp. Therefore he will drive past player traffic to the LO stream (assuming he streams on Friday). Whenever I release an APB news video there are always people in the comments who had no idea about the news I'm telling, even though it's just a repeat of whats been shared on the forums and apb twitter. I mean if the player base is so low, why do the videos get 1000s of views? Because there are a load of people who used to play or want to play that heard about the state of the game and are waiting in the shadows for the game to improve. You can't just assume the entire APB community is on this forum and uses Twitter. Even when the game was at it's biggest, it was only a small proportion of players that used the forums. There are many sub-communities that make up the APB Player base: Players well known in game, players well known in social, streamer communities, forum communities, facebook page communities, eventer communities and more. All I see is LO trying to bring them all together.
  15. So damn impressive. Thanks for sharing this with me the other day.
  16. Maybe they don't see this as some opportunity to advertise to people that don't play APB. Maybe they're actually doing it for the community who have been waiting so long for this. The streamers they choose may not have viewers in the thousands but every single APB streamer interacts with their chats and answers every question because the questions aren't getting lost and scrolling upwards at a ridiculous pace. They have small pockets of the APB community and they're going to get brought together. There are actually some really big streamers that have streamed APB in the past. Summit is one of the biggest but there are a few more. If every one of those gets a shot on Friday and not the regulars then maybe you'd be on to something with your favouritism comment. But I just see a fun opportunity to bring several smaller communities together to enjoy something that has been in the making (for real) ever since LO bought G1 2 years ago and something we've been waiting maybe 6-7 years for. And sure they could have just streamed themselves playing but there are a few APB streamers that have bigger followings than the LO twitch channel. Having streamers do it first is a good way to get more traffic.
  17. Build one from wood and a big mouse matt. Feel epic and keep the wife! Not sure where you get the wood right now though.
  18. I saw this title for the first time on wednesday and did think it was a bit odd but then the word has evolved doesn't really mean the same thing as it used to. E.g. attention wh**e has no sexual meaning and can be applied to anyone. Also it's a title so is up to the player to apply it to themselves and can't be aimed at anyone else.
  19. They'll be the same server at some point so don't worry if you pick the 'wrong' one now.
  20. Back this Friday @yeedman will be giving an EOL away to the person with the most wins after 5 rounds. As well as the usual $100k prize per round. Citadel Waterfront Gold 22:45 BST thats 21:45 GMT. Wait by 'Griefer Station'. Watch any of the Waterfront based videos in this thread to find out where that is. See you there!
  21. I did have a Halloween styled Vaquero but I had to delete it. Doubt I'll have time to re make it.
