    I was discussing yesterday about what LO has done for quality of life features, and to be honest in my opinion that's the only thing you guys have done right since you took over APB.
    By the way, when are we having population status again? I wanna know how much players are online so I can decide if I wanna play the game or not. Now Streamer Mode is very welcome for everyone, finally being able to silence Audio without risking a shadowban, and hide Symbols from players that has the most creative ways of showing what they stand for (just staying polite in my setence here since if you know you know about symbols) . Anything else regarding Streamer Mode is just okay, can be improoved but I got the point that's it's in BETA state.
    About Christmas Event, it's nice having something to grind and earn, but 100 matches in a single character? In a 20-days period? uhm... I think people won't have that much time to play APB and even if they do, that's too much to ask in a Holiday Season, not to mention people will also want to try and grind the COBR-A in all their characters, I get the point that you earn 500 G1C just for logging in, but in my opinion should be a bit less matches to be able to earn the big reward... Only a few will be able to do it, not a nice way of saying sorry to your playerbase, asking them to play an unhealthy amount of time for some G1C (and again, just my opinion).
    About Legends Patch, just release when you guys are confortable with, try not to say you going to release before it's even ready to be released because you wanted to hype the game, when you don't release when u said u going to release players will remember it and the effect will be the opposite of what you wanted. (Just see EU population going down)
    I hope you really are saying the thruth about servers stability because this whole year has been a pain in the neck to play this game, thank you for the effort and for keeping the game alive, but sometimes I wished this game was closed already so I can only remember good things about this game.

    You've just described a gameplay mechanic which requires intrinsic knowledge of the game (positioning of car, knowing what angles are appropriate etc.)
    That is a tool in the arsenal of a good player. It only raises the skill ceiling.

     

    I think that your skill level is questionable, considering the hyperbole in your statements.
    Based on what data do you exclaim that "the game is full of cheaters"?
    The game currently has a population of ~300 players.
    Out of those players, anecdotally, the amount of times I've faced a blatant cheater can be counted on the fingers of one hand.
    As for "closets", I think they're a even smaller minority in this 300 pop game. Most of the "closet" accusations are usually worse players baselessly attacking better players for outplaying them.

    always come up with "questionable skill level" as if its an argument about my statement, gosh I hate apb players. 

    and no it's not a gameplay mechanic, there's nothing mechanical about it, stop coping. 

    In a game of ~300 is even more evident and more likely too see cheaters, and if u haven't faced as much blatant cheaters as me good for you, but ur experience doesn't mean it's the only experience.

    1) Who came up with the splendid idea to add a 1.7 second delay in a fast-paced game, which is predominantly played in the 0.7s TTK range?
    This change has the ability to single-handedly kill any serious endeavours in this game for any future player base, regardless of how much you scale down the timer.
    Considering this game is now considered a competitive title (as per Matt's words from the AMA), how is this change supporting such crowd in any sense? It's like Valve removing bunny hopping or Apex removing tapstrafing, you only alienate any veteran players and any future, competitive players which you plan on receiving after EGS launch.

    In both cases u mentioned it "Apex and CS", it's movement techniques which takes hours to learn and much more hours to make it an advantage.
    What we had with animation cancelling to get into cars was straight up an advantage to "Car Gameplay", it's not a technique and it's not movement related so I don't see your point being valid, you don't need to "learn and practice", it doesn't take skill to do it, it's simply "put ur car into a position where your character won't make the animation" and voilà.   
    You also said "Considered this game is now considered a competitive title" huh? when APB started to be considered a competitive title? There's no ranked matches, there's no Skill Based Matchmaking, the only thing APB had something competitive related was a Community League that's not active for some Years already. The game was full of cheaters and macro users, don't come with the argument about competitive in a game full of cheaters 🤡

    What was changed recently?

     

    They nerfed the CR762's damage and range a while back. I felt that was too much of a nerf. It dropped it's damage to the same value as having heavy barrel 3 on the pre-nerf version, but without the bloom reduction.

     

    It's obvious this patch was going to go poorly. Tests had 90% of the system disabled. You relied on the players to test it, when you could have done all the testing in 1 day with a single workstation and a dozen APB instances logged in with random accounts and random threat data. It's obvious it's not matching threat properly. I got multiple matches with 2 golds vs 2 bronze. Those matches don't happen on the old matchmaking. It would match in a 3rd player for the 2 bronze team.

    They've posted the weapon balance in the LO discord, basically they reverted this cr 762 nerf, putting back the effective range and increasing the dmg a little bit, basically to indirectly balance the OBIR which was pretty much the only option to the Rifle role (and imo it's still is).

    They've also buffed LCR in the fire rate interval and bloom per shot

    I want to suggest a change to an existing item, the default legging material it's pretty similar to the glossy version of it, I'd love to see the leggings with an actual matte material instead of glossy, mainly when u use darker colors u would see it reflecting on the light which I believe it shouldn't supposed to be like this

    So this starts happening today when I tried to play the game and it's still happening for some reason and I cannot find a solution.

     

    Restarted my internet / Restarted my computer / Tried different games (which I had no connection problems or spikes on the ping) . 

     

    My only guess is the routing connection for APB, if anyone can help me with that I would appreciate it.

    As you can see my ping is 499ms, and the normal scenario is 130ms when my ping is ok to 300ms when my internet is really bad.
