Be honest, you just love running down waves of pedestrians.

Would that really surprise anyone at this point? This game is over a decade old with borderline no development done in almost that entire time. The fact the maps haven't changed 1 pixel since I was a teenager is mind boggling... There's STILL the same UI glitch for over 6+ years now. EDIT: For the record, LO is the best thing that happened to this game cause G1, driven by the winds of their incompetence, 100% drove it into the ground.

No, what's dangerous is how people think they can just say and do whatever they want and everyone has to just deal. APB isn't the first game that doesn't allow toxicity--this goes way beyond our own little community. Stop trying to make it seem like LO is power tripping. And stop acting like entitled children when you lose a match, cause LO doesn't owe you anything when you act ugly. Do some of you even know what sportsmanship is? You got banned... Have some grace, jeez.

In my opinion, I think car surfing is fine. It's not even that good (zero cover) unless it's a mission with a mobile objective or you're chasing/fleeing. Gravity hurts a lot (no HL) and so does losing Val tablets. I've never said to myself, "Wow, Car Surfer is strong." cause I don't care, it's impact is minimal. The real issue is when objectives/VIPs aren't locked into an area and they start running 1,200+ meters with the briefcase on Waterfront and an ALIG on top of a Pioneer. If they were actually locked into a contested 400m² zone, then it wouldn't be such a frustrating tactic and people couldn't drag it out or make the opp wait 15 minutes until the VIP mission timer ends... Zzz.

Every 100 missions the 4 seats do come in handy for about 30 seconds, but tbh 4-doors in a world where car surfer exists makes it basically irrelevant. I'm almost max on my 2nd crim and I can recall maybe 4-5 times where those extra seats made any real impact. Like R3 said tho, it's usually just a fantastic way to eat a Conc Grenade and have your whole team cease to exist + lose all initiative on the objective(s).

Those 5JT will be mine!

Honestly, some of the cars are unrealistically terrible; they need to overhaul the stats of most cars, cause there's a clear meta and it's a bit boring.

Curious argument, considering you're playing a PvP game... Which the whole point of player vs. player is to outpace your opponent, but it seems you're the one who can't handle the pace your opp is setting for you. And before you get defensive, there's nothing wrong with losing; just learn from it and if you don't derive enjoyment from the activity take a holiday, permanent or otherwise. The only "/forfeit" that should be allowed are in cases of a 1-vs-1; they're a joke and not at all what this game was built for.

I don't think a hungry-hungry-hippo at a buffet is really 'swapping', probs more accurate to say they'd be 'consuming', but I get your meaning, lmao. Just make the query only target accounts of X age or older and only accounts in good standing with no previous violations. Voila!

Very true! I use 'the same name' for two characters as well, would suck if they altered it at this point. It's kind of a lose-lose with that solution too if you think about it; unless free name changes were complimentary relative to character roster size(s) I suppose... Idk, food for thought ig. ^^

I hope not. It's literally the anniversary week, lmao.

It gets kinda messy too, cause you have to manually type the name and sometimes people use i's or l's in place of each other to circumvent taken names, but they're totally different people.

Boredom is a lack of inner resources. Yeah, it's called societal progression; turns out telling people to self-harm isn't cool anymore. It's a videogame anyway, why you so mad? Grow up or improve your life some more so you don't lose your composure when a frivolous computer game doesn't go your way. Doesn't make what you did right. Obviously it did, because he took the time to report you for telling him/her to take their own life over a silly 10+ year old videogame. Willful ignorance (nor anonymity) doesn't absolve you either. You do tho. That's why you're here!

Ban me for what? Your 'point' about trends makes zero sense. And again, you keep saying that because someone else did a similar thing and didn't get punished you shouldn't be held accountable, but I'm here telling you that's not how the law works. You agreed to obey the Terms of Service and you repeatedly broke it, culminating in telling someone to self-harm over a videogame. The irony is, you've literally become what you're saying is so wretched about "99.9%" of other communities. Call me trendy, I don't care. I feel gratification knowing your banned.

Anonymity doesn't excuse ugly conduct, despite your incessant whining that it somehow absolves you. Hopefully now you learned something--actions have consequences.

Because it's their game and they don't owe you anything... Judging from literally just this encounter the ban was justified. Lat0r gator, one day you'll realise that toxic people online are just projecting their own personal unhappiness.

Uh, yeah...

Not one for anecdotal hypotheticals... since you "often" don't miss, but they ofc do and your RoF is perfect; my point is that the .45 is just a stronger choice overall. If two players of equal skill fought with those guns, in most situations I'd argue the .45 wins. Especially when cover is accounted for as it's able to deal more damage in a shorter window of time than the FBW could. Especially at distances of 36+ meters where the FBW requires 7 shots to kill and the .45 still only needs 5. Only very, very recently did it FINALLY get nerfed in range and it was by accident... Not "that". Your post was rude and arbitrary; basically nonsensical. You're not helping at all.

Why are you being disrespectful and mocking him? He gave his opinion and was on-topic--I even agree with him too. Which is more than I can say for you. It could be fun to try for a while again and lore-wise I'd presume it was just criminals being crims and corruption in the Enfo hierarchy. Tangent, but: Something I liked in the crim progression was they talk about you going from a thug to a thinker. Even the contacts themselves talk about making big changes and restoring the city via dialogue or mail. People like Birth, with his sort of resources, would likely have ties high up in San Paro--I could see some potential corruption.

Huh? That was only very recently--it's been ravaging the player base for years. The fact a new player has to farm hundreds of thousands of JT to get even a half dozen of these guns (which are character bound, afaik) is still absolutely nasty to me. And yeah, you can sit there and say it's not P2W (even tho some guns aren't in the JT store and only available in ARMAS), but the fact remains that it's a horrifying grind for a single pistol that outperforms the basic one. It just doesn't feel or look good, but the vast majority of the community use it... The sad reality is that so many have already paid for it; now they don't want it to get nerfed. Even you, I bet you use a silly primary and use the .45 as your answer to everything except long range, because it's just that good.

That's a newer bug that was recently introduced with the EAC update. Arresting also seems to be impacted where the first "arrest attempt" doesn't actually trigger the capture and only the animation.

What are you even talking about?

"Reasonable"? Ya, I completely disagree. The .45's over tuned presence has made all of the other pistols worse just for it existing. I can drop a guy from 40 meters in 1 second with my sidearm... That's insane TTK. There are people so good with it that it's stronger than most primaries in the =<40m range. In my opinion, the .45 is arguably the closest to being P2W at its worst & downright overpowered at its best--There's a reason its the meta sidearm, it's bonkers.

Where's the fun in that?
