God help me. As I wrote before multiple times. Yes the person is cheating BUT this is still possible without any cheats at all. Just remove the jumping from the video and you get a legit qs compilation.

Exactly although projectiles already exist in APB, opgl, osmaw, volcano. I think the projectile should be a bit faster than the volcano but not overly fast because then it would be pointless to make hvr projectile based in the first place. And yes the speed limit might be a problem with the current engine.

Indeed but those things are still possible even if you are legit, it's just easier to do it with cheats.

OK since everyone is mad at me for the lack of constructive criticism from my side I'm gonna write this last time. HVR is broken. No other gun in the current meta can stand up to it since it's 850 damage up to 90 meters. Additionally the weapon is hit scan so good luck dodging it. With that kind of amount of damage which no other weapon can inflict the HVR should definitely face a nerf, most likely hvr should become projectile based so it would require a little bit of skill to land that tactical nuke of a shot. Saying that you can counter HVR with an Obeya or OBIR is nothing more than wishful talking. Skilled HVR players won't show themselves to you throughout the entire mission or they will always be using a car and driving away from everyone so they can snipe from afar. Most players will also crouch spam or hug the corners in such a way that their model won't be even visible to you but they will be landing those 850 damage shots on your entire team. The majority of good hvr players will also quickswitch. You can say that "oh it's easy to counter quickswitchers, just nade them", trust me they are aware of that and they will avoid it. Current problem with HVR is that it's too versatile. You can use it at any range and it's definitely a tool of mass destruction in the hands of skilled players. If hvr was projectile based on the other hand it would introduce travel time and bullet drop so HVR would become what it was always supposed to be which is even stated in its description. A support rifle. You would need to aim slightly above your enemies to compensate for the drop and aim a little in front of them if they are running. In that case hvr could keep its 850 damage. Then when it comes to quickswitching they should either make it so the further the projectile travels the more damage it deals or mess around with equip time and stuff like that. Edit: and for god's sake stop comparing HVR to other games. Other games have totally different meta and you can usually kill people with just few shots at any range because there is no damage dropoff mechanic, additionally most other games have a headshot mechanic so it balances out. For example let's take csgo since many people compare hvr to awp. Counter strafing ak47 in csgo can take on an awp user because not only he deals full damage with ak at any range, he can also headshot the guy and kill him instantly as well. APB doesn't have that, it's a lot different from other games. Linking the video again so people understand, skip to 35 seconds (this player was banned but watch it just for what is possible with hvr):

as soon as you mentioned that yukon doesn't need a nerf I knew that you are special

you must be trolling ok let me show you a video which my friend showed me. The player on the video was banned but let's forget about that for a second. Watch it just for what is possible with the hvr. Legit players most likely wouldn't jump so much but the quickswitching factor still remains. Also hvr is hitscan 850 damage up to 90 meters. skip to 35 seconds:

few people on the forum + few of my steam friends. In this very thread you have 3 people including me saying that there is a difference. Additionally I don't think it would be a big deal for LO to just apply the mouse fix by default by changing their default files. Even if some would claim that it's placebo it definitely wouldn't hurt.

You keep saying it yet more and more players keep confirming after testing that there is a slight difference in responsiveness. Even one of my friends on steam just wrote to me that there is definitely a small difference.

I think that the old engine upgrade videos look good enough:

I would agree that it could be slightly adjusted but not completely nerfed. Another thing which should be adjusted is corner camping since if you are good at it you can peek just enough to shoot but in a way that your model is not even visible to your enemies. They should change it so you need to expose yourself more to actually take shots

same here, as long as I was on point all my shots were landing perfectly fine.

Adding any sort of delay to crouching or making people who are standing up to take a shot have some additional bloom would just break the game. Imagine you want to quickly pop and take a shot so you stand up but now you have to wait like an idiot for some special bloom to calm down and by the time it does you will probably be dead already because everyone will start shooting at you as soon as you pop your head out of cover. Crouch spamming is completely ok. Just take cover yourself or nade that person. Or become the fastest gunslinger in the wild west and shoot the guy as soon as he pops up to take a shot. Often it's not even about your reaction time but just prediction. If you lean out of cover you can expect the guy to try to take a shot and you should take a shot yourself. Very often they will stand up right into your shot. Edit: If they would introduce anti crouch spam delay you wouldn't be able to make some mlg plays anymore. You would be destined to die if several people were trying to kill you at the same time if you are taking cover behind a shield for example.

It's not about that. Because of my muscle memory my hand knows exactly how much to flick after years of playing with the same settings. Without the mouse fix my flicks magically felt a lot more clunky. It's not very apparent in fast and wide flicks but becomes more visible with micro adjustments. The input feels like something is holding it down a bit when I'm not using the mouse fix, while with the mouse fix it feels fully responsive at all times.

So I've tested it back and forth, back and forth for about 30 minutes. Did some flicking between pedestrians and world objects on an empty gold district. It could be just my setup or because of the 58 fps vsync trick I'm using but with the mouse fix my flicks are more on point, the input feels lighter, not that there is input lag or anything but it just feels more raw and responsive. Without the mouse fix my flicks were ending up too short or too long and the input felt a little bit heavier, more clunky as if the input was being smoothened out in some way (mouse smoothing off). You can still keep saying that it's just a placebo but I definitely feel a slight difference in how responsive the input is with mouse fix.

Gonna test it today and see if it's just a placebo.

Wasn't car spawner added to the game to compensate for the poor spawn system in the first place ? If the spawn system gets fixed I see no reason for car spawners to still exist in the game. There's nothing more annoying than a pioneer with a single guy driving around you 20 meters away and his entire team spawns in the car or people simply abusing the mod by for example putting car spawners on the objectives. Not to mention people constantly respawning with hvrs on the overpass and such because you have no way of destroying those pioneers other than driving 200 meters away from the objective to get on the damn ramp and avoid getting killed while climbing up a scaffolding and hopefully wiping out entire enemy team which is camping there so you can destroy a single car which will be back anyway the next time they respawn. Just remove the damn thing once and for all.

it's a gold rush my dude. omegalul

imho enough has been said about the topic of GM recruitment by you Lixil in other threads. With all respect to the author to me personally it looks like an attempt of winning over LO by coming off as someone mature and experienced because Tigrix wants that GM position badly before anyone else gets it ;D

Exactly. omegalul ;D

It was all a joke. It's the same as you would say that I'm from onionland or that polish people steal german cars. Additionally it's just my personal opinion if I think that Brazilians are bizarre. Freedom of speech. Those are memes and people should stop being so serious about it. Let's not introduce the SJW vibe to apb forums.

Even if some of the people will ridicule you I would definitely like to see some of the older / mature players becoming GMs, not people who want to do it simply for the swag of it.

I simply encountered many BR players in various games who were very often saying or doing very bizarre things for some weird reason. That guy was an example of that. Not an attempt to generalize your nation or anything.

Probably a attention seeker. Don't even bother.

"having grudges outside of the game". What do you mean ?

Completely agree with previous posters. ARMAS prices are all over the place. Overall the prices are way too high. Some bad weapons cost a fortune while some of the good ones are on the lower end. Many ARMAS pictures are also misleading, for example they are displaying wrong mods. LO should probably completely revamp all the prices so they would make sense instead of having the mess that we have right now. if I could get 2 or maybe by some chance even 3 account wide guns for 60 $ which you pay for a single one right now I would be happy.
