    Evidence? all time i see players on twtich with zero recoil.  

    There is a difference in controlling the recoil and not having any at all.

    Video on youtube like " flaws "or other etc ...

    When you play vs players full fire, easily noticed. You don't need to was an esport players to see that 🙂


    I don't know about on console, but on PC APB's recoiol is easier to control than other shooter games.
    There's very little lateral horizotal recoil with most guns.

    CSGO and BitBattle have harder and more sporadic recoil and bloom.

    It is common knowledge that recoil can be more controlled if you burst fire rapidly rather than just holding down the trigger and going full rambo.
    And I don't need to tell you how gun mods can alter the potential accuracy, recoil and bloom of a gun in APB.

    Also a variable you may not of considered is mouse sensitivity, on top of how much experiece the player has.

  3. I'm in a bit of a awkward situation where my main character was created on Colby NA as the EU server was offline at the time, all my achievements, designs, Holiday rewards and Armas purchases are tied to that character...
    As someone living in the EU, either triy too forget my loses and carry on with a new character, or just endure the disadvantage I am in.

    It is indeed a personal problem which may not affect anyone else, but server merging or cross play is something I am very much interested in.


  4. It's disheartening having all the potential of APB could of been being listed out.
    A fair conclusion overall, I think it's reasonable to say that APB has been in a coma on life support for the past few years.
    It is nice to see a video made on the history of APB which doesn't just end with the implying that APB is dead, even though it's very much far from thriving or active.

    Wait anti cheat is off all this time?? So no threat and no anti cheat... Great combo.

    It's not exactly priority number one especially with next to no one playing!
    Fasalina said their day is ruined, As much as I was hoping for a date or even a target for when some performance improvements to be rolled out... It's just another day in the calendar, just another year.

    After years of heart ache, hope and frustration, it would be wise to not waste emotions over a long term issues which has spanned multiple years. That doesn't make me any less of a fan of APB, but crying a river isn't going to change a thing.

  6. I think a lot of people for a long time saw an engine upgrade like a remastering of APB with the offerings of better performance and potential for new technology to be utilised, It was an exciting thought.
    But I think this announcement has been a realistic review of the complicated unique creature that APB is with it's coding and engine.


    Personally I feel a level of acceptance of the facts, and I think we all knew deep down that this was likely to be the outcome.

    All those ppl who stopped playing 2, 3, 4, 5 yrs ago to wait on the new engine, do you honestly think they will come back after all this time has passed? The longer you stay away and the more ppl leave the more likely it is that they will never return. The further delayed this engine is the more likely it is that ppl with give up entirely on the game.

    I was going to write this reply to you in  a message on discord but actually... I think I want other people to know how I feel even if they don't care.

    There's trying to be quietly optimistic, supportive and patient... And then there's waiting for over 7 years for something that became meme, It's been so long that the Q1 2014 and Soon™ memes stopped being funny and actually feels insulting!

    As much as I love APB and want the very best for it, It's beyond the point of considering what is best for it.

    I'm not going to be wasting my time, energy, emotion and money on what is a metaphorical black hole.
     

    It'll be the closest thing to a miracle I've seen if/when the engine upgrade is complete.

    I admit... I give up... I'm not waiting for the second coming of Jesus Christ here!

    After 10 years, I've lost hope for APB, I'm not having fun anymore.

    I can only hope someone at Little Orbit reads this and realises just how deeply I feel.
    Que sera, sera.

  8. After 2018 with the Epidemic, the GM hosted events with the autumn assault, and then the Slay Bells all in a span of 3 or 4 months...

    It was then I knew that Little Orbit was naïve, testing the waters and are not take feedback from player on what needs to be addressed, what we'd like to see, what works well and what we'd like to see improved.

    With events bringing back trolls, some hackers, potentially distracting focus from development, If such naive actions were being done on events, It was inevitable that the engine upgrade was going to be underestimated.

    After 3 years, there isn't an excuse for floundering.
    As much as one tries to keep spirits up of fellow community members, there's only so much slack that can be given.
    People can say just polish the game and do another ad campaign to recruit new players but customer acquisition vs retention is always going to be in favour for the loyal customers that keep returning.
    There is only so much polishing you can do and the cracks that show in APB are too big to ignore.
    Also there is a point where polishing the game is no longer viable considering the engine is being pushed to it's limit in capability.


    In the past people suggested just make APB from the ground up as a new game, I didn't like the idea before of starting over, but in hind sight it probably would of been easier and quicker to do.

     

    I used to be addicted to APB and also love this game to the point of hating the flaws and mistakes, but now emotionally I feel like I'm back with the old GamersFirst... I'd rather just see APB shut down the servers and have a dignified.

    If by now none of you have seen how bad the pop is your blind. All of the recent decisions by Matt and the lack of addressing anything in the current engine have left everyone flocking away. Unless you shift focus to the current engine to try to salvage what's left your engine work will be pointless as nobody will be playing the game. APB pop has been dying at a faster rate then anytime in its past, and this last yr is during a pandemic where everyone is home all the time and everyone else (other games) saw increases. Wake up LO, wake up Matt time to come back to reality.

    Long time no see

    To be honest, at the turn of the new year I found myself at a point where I stopped looking at the engine upgrade weekly notes from Matt and stopped playing.

     

    I know 1 person who stopped playing back in 2017 who said they'll play APB when the engine upgrade happens. Likewise I would play APB once the engine upgrade is complete but in the mean time there just isn't enough incentive for me to stick around.
    There are other games that run better and have new content coming out so why play APB even with free premium.

    The current pop doesn't matter. Polish the game, make a good ad champagne and get new people to this game. Some people that played APB and took a break/quit will come back anyway.

    The chicken and egg of encouraging new players before or after the engine upgrade is quite the long running debate.
    Honestly I rather not try and get new players if the game is not offering a great experience or anything new... I mean it's already free to play!

    There's only so mush that polish can do and polish isn't going to hide the cracks that are showing.
     


  10. Hello, I would like to express an interest in potentially joining.


    -edit-

    Didn't notice this was for EU only.
    If it's ok, maybe I could be having a trail period to get an idea how I feel being in this clan?

  11. Sexually provocative images are not against the Terms of Service unless it has visible genitalia, persons under 18 however ARE bannable!

    This game is not targeted, intended for, or suitable for children or those easily offended.

     

    Sorry but western priorities: Women's nipples are somehow more offensive than shooting someone!

  12. If you force a restriction then it will only drive those determined enough to evade it even harder.

      - introduce an automatic system that immediately forces anyone that reaches gold threat level out of bronze districts

       - disallow dethreating in the first place

     

    MattScott said that LittleOrbit intend to add "Phasing" as a new form of matchmaking, players will be matched up automatically rather than segregating threat and making districts population numbers lower.

     

    Threat segregation is what caused dethreating in the first place.


  13. Little Orbit is not limiting it, the game's coding and the physical servers have limits.

    The more complex a design, the more memory and processing power needed and that isn't quickly accumulates when a district can hold over 50 players.

     

    I'd suggested looking back at your character and see if there is any way to simplify or make shortcuts in your the designs.

  14. Nearly everything in Armas is has 20% off, you get vast more customization limitations lifted, more contact standing and in game money bonus.

     

    I don't mean to be rude but you sound a little ungrateful considering LittleOrbit is carrying on their normal work load from their own homes, and you think you deserve an even further discount despite the premium given out of generosity is indefinite?

     

    How about showing Little Orbit some support during this difficult time.


  15. They lower settings to get the most frame rates for a competitive edge or because their higher end modern PC have technical difficulties with the current outdated game engine.

     

    Either way to answer your question, max settings or minimum settings. All that would happen is a minor different in reaction time possibly but only my a millisecond.

     

    A good aim is a good aim.

    You can down vote me now salty!
