    not being able to implement the server side portion of eac is very much different from eac actively causing lag

     

    the same post you copy/pasted makes it very clear that if the price was right orbit would have continued to use eac, so obviously they were satisfied with its lack of performance issues

     

    battleye on the other hand was a disaster the first time it was implemented, and the second wasnt much better imo

    If u have enough money u can also make battleye be the best anticheat in the world,the thing is that based of the state EAC was running it made people have a higher latency , unless  i when EAC was running ,I felt my game being sloppy  and slow,when they reverted back the issue was solved.

    EAC probably is a better anticheat than BE,the thing is I prefer to deal with cheaters from time to time than have to deal with that increase on latency  and my game felling sloppy and slow every mission.

    You've got that reversed.

    When we negotiated the deal with Kamu (Epic Games), the service was supposed to be client and server side. The critical reason for moving was their management tools and the server side piece which we didn't get with BattlEye. However, we also agreed to pay more to get that. The client side integration was fairly smooth, but the server side integration hit immediate snags. We spent months trying different configurations with the networks to get them talking properly, and when that didn't work, both sides dedicated programming support to fix the issues. When it still didn't work, we started exploring other ways to possibly fix it, but Kamu said based on our concurrency we wouldn't like get good results anyway. More recently I was finally contacted by their head of development with the news that they could no longer justify the resources to finish the server side integration. So then we attempted to work out a reduction in pricing. But we couldn't come to a compromise, so we have mutually decided to end the agreement. 

     

    Clearly, we will need to keep evaluating server side solutions or build our own, because I have yet to see one that works well enough.

     

    How i got that reversed?

    Customization is and was always a big part of APB, one thing of it is the ability of having your desired name. I will repeat myself, there are players who were playing this game for 10+ years, like myself there are probably people who didn't take the "smartest" name and had it for 10 years, so a change would be nice. The problem is that it costs like 8€. 

    Your argument that something like this "should cost money" is plainly wrong and something that none community in games want, if you look at Steam, Origin, XBOX, and nowadays Playstation. The first 2 of them allow a name change completely free, while Playstation allows it for free once (dunno about XBOX). 

    First of all u werent only talking about name change,u were also talking about free character slot,but having one free name change is a good idea,having more idk becuase apb is very toxic and cheaters and toxic players will be probably changing names constantly,also LO was going to change how the names work,after all they didnt delete the russian names,i am a f2p player myself i am always in favour on gettings free things too,but u know if LO doesnt earn money the game dies.

    The new vehicle for example, we don't even know how it is, how is gonna be called, which type of car is, how will impact the current gameplay choices, we don't know nothing about it, and is hilarious.

    Maybe the only thing we know is the name? "The Mirage"? Im not sure about that.

     

     

    Matt Scott said in twitch that they would give a sneak peek, still waiting for that though

    So a gun designed to finish off is doing its job, instead of carrying the entirety of the non-lethal line up?

    Pig and stun grenades are the only things that make ltl somewhat be able to compete with lethal weapons,the non lethal "line up" is after all only two guns,now u are forced to use percs.

    I guess i will have to get used to "perc noob" whispers now.
