May 2024 recap: Internally, we’ve had great discussions regarding balance, focusing on buffs to very underutilized weapons that nobody plays. So... Why is LO still nerfing..? Should nerf whomever is making those decisions out of their seat. They've destroyed the game enough as is.

Imagine a forum Mod declare victory then close the thread.

A natural consequence of voip no longer being in use. Social Districts will go out with it, especially on NA.

I never knew APB Coin existed on Binance.

I was going to ask as to where you got that '+1000 score average over x20 missions' from, but you just asked the *golden question* (pun not intended but I might as well keep it). YEARS ago, upthreating/dethreating was decided by winning/losing. Now, it is decided by relative score. Winning a mission simply gives a +700 score boost. Yes, the system is broken and can rarely bug out (especially in 2v2 matches), but generally the player must be in the upper-half of the scoreboard. Say in a match of 4x4, one should be at least 4th in terms of score. The further away the player is from 4th and 5th places, the greater the impact to their threat.

Easy target Missions have multiple stages, stages can have multiple objectives.

It indeed is simple to press F at an objective.

Opinions hold zero value when facts exist. It gets worse, you don't even have an opinion, just random rage gibberish talk. I could honestly care less about what someone like you accepts or doesn't accept. Reality most certainly doesn't care either. As if that is new. You never did and you never will. LO isn't perfect but your can have fun convincing yourself with trying to parade people into LO-hate in cases where it doesn't apply.

The sad part is that 'the game situation being bad for very long' was not the reason. The justification was already clearly stated. YOU not liking it enough to the point where you are blatantly in denial... Sadly makes YOU the uneducated, hypocritical animal. There you go! You have just mentioned why you crying about all of this is meritless. Improving the game is a separate endeavor. Don't mix the two. Besides, having slightly more people means less dead game, means the game IS better despite gameplay being the same, Doofus. For the millionth time, Cheaters don't have to cheat on their primary accounts. On what parallel universe would they even be afraid when they can just mass produce accounts? Are you seriously incapable of comprehending this? And here you show that you are another person that accepts Terms of Service without actually reading them. Be pissed all you want, you don't make the 'conditions'. Nobody cares Try again once your denial isn't as high as your ping.

It is a delight to see this still running. Absolute dedication!

MattScott is neither fat nor a skeleton. He's perfectly thicc.

Knowledge is power. Luckily, health cheats (god-mode) do not exist in APB. Pick a weapon that counters the one the Cheater is using and they'll die like anyone else.

What point would that be, the delusion that banning Cheaters or keeping them banned would stop them? Are you not aware of the simple fact that Cheaters don't need any permanent account to do their thing? Let's be real. If you were amongst those that got falsely banned, would you agree to stay banned.... Be the sacrifice in order for throwabble cheat-accounts to stay banned? We both know your answer to that is no. Therefore, you're the hypocrite here.

Cheaters will cheat anyway, primary accounts or not. They don't care about their accounts and nobody should either. The number of Cheaters in APB's population will remain the same regardless. Don't give them the false-pleasure of obsessing over their so precious accounts.

I swear to God... If they introduce some invisibility-consumable that breaks upon using weapons (a.k.a cloaking from Crysis) just because of this thread...

Unlikely for them to give up so soon. The engine was made to function in 64-bit not too long ago. Sure, money is money. Life is harsh and misfortunes can happen in a flash but it isn't like hosting APB is expensive. Can literally host it in thy home. I call BS but I wouldn't be surprised if it shuts down.

So, you have basically reverted the MM without what made it kickstart districts sooner: unopposed missions? I am also intrigued as to why this test isn't performed on Live servers, considering they have already been destroyed by the currently-in-place prototype MM.

Bring back ComFeyer.

The faction removal segment was pure copium. It would be another massive waste of Dev Time just to get bugs and no real progress on APB.

Exactly. It should have never been pushed to Live before the district-phasing-copium is ready (it would still be a downgrade even with that, this isn't Apex Legends). But it appears they are hard-bent on making Live servers a lab-rat, even if it means testing things that are guaranteed to fail on the spot. 'They are right, Everyone else is wrong', lol...

Shhh, they'll further screw over the Veterans while Cheaters remain unaffected.

- Since exact ETAs can not be given, is there a best-case-scenario estimation of when would World Consolidation ship to Live? - Would LO do the right thing and roll back the current Match Making beta because... APB is not Apex Legends nor it should casually follow its footsteps of 3v3 matching priority? - When would LO buff weak weapons and vehicles that might as well not exist? - When would missions become more dynamic/random in objective locations?

You cheated on your Ex.

He's not exaaactly hiding. See, the Dev communicating on Discord was actually a blessing. It is the job of Community Managers to be more talkative. The Dev's job is to work on the game. Naturally, he's not supposed to be on the forums. Matt made his speech in the roadmap but of course, results aren't fully there yet for him to appear promptly. The Launcher being inaccurate surely sucks. Good thing it isn't critical but yes, definitely laziness, no excuses there. Best of luck with car lights. Can't say when they'll happen. The merge isn't supposed to be a traditional full merge. It will allow server travel but NA should be able to play strictly with NA. At least that was the proven plan as seen on that ancient Open Beta. Pray Phasing (cross-district matching) won't also mess that up.
