    To be honest I had quite a strong suspicion that APB would end up here when LO first took over.

     

    I think their overall startegy was flawed and somewhat naive .

     

     

    You know its funny, I had this exact suspicion as I looked into LO during the acquisition. The portfolio they had before APB was not at the complexity of what APB was which gave me the feeling they were potentially over their heads taking this on, albeit still kept ever so slightly hopeful for the sake of the game. As time passed, blog posts gave the constant impression that they were overwhelmed but still attempting to tackle the game.

     

    What I thought was passion and persistence to progress a game despite it's challenges, was actually just clouded with naiveness since day 1.

    The IP is the only thing about this game that is worth shit. What a poor decision to sell it to some Chinese company who will not have the same vision. I understand they won't have any say in APB: Reloaded, but the next versions of APB? You can't just keep updating APB: Reloaded and putting an 2.0/3.0 at the end of it. 

     

    All the future APB titles will just be Chinese GTA clones. Good job Orbit, this is the worst decision you have made for the game thus far. I get that you are fiending for the cash after realising what this game entails but damn.

     

    I'm really not interested in what happens next.

    This absolutely reeks of desperation, no self respecting developer would ever sell off their main IP if they weren't deeply in the brown stuff.

     

    It's obvious by now that LO are struggling badly, once the money from this sell off runs out it'll be curtains for APB because they sure as hell aren't getting much revenue from the game with the current population which fell to a record low last month.

     

    Having given up on this game years ago. Hearing of acquisition by LO gave me hope the brand and APB as a whole would potentially improve and thrive. An unfortunate turn of events for a game/brand I once loved.
