Hello, my account is not allowed to trade anybody, i can not buy, bid or sell anything on the auction

I don't know if it's still the same way. You used to get trade banned for signing in from the same location as another account that got trade banned. Their system is terrible at determining "location". If you HWID changes, or your public IP address changes, you get temporarily trade locked. An ISP that uses CGNAT can possibly give the same public IPV4 address to multiple APB players. Chances are low, but it's more than 0.

the error has been going on for over an hour, what could be the problem? access denied. unable to log in to the game. this account is currently being used by another client (error code 10004). Merged. I am 100% sure that only I have access to the account

The issue preventing players from logging into their account via Steam should now be resolved.

Hey, quick question—how will this affect our characters on our accounts? Will we need to create new characters for the testing, or can we use our existing ones? If it's our already made accounts, will they be locked in the test server, or is this just a temporary thing?

WHatever ya changed the lobbies are now crashing after 1 hour and kicking everyone to login and when you go to login says account is being used by another client and have to wait 20 mins

You're so wrong... GamersFirst has confirmed that APB: Reloaded has over 3 million user accounts. The game sees between 25,000 and 30,000 active players every day. APB: Reloaded Surpasses 3 Million Players Following Steam Launch

I said DISTINCTLY we need a solid anticheat. But we need it to WORK,,, IMMEDIATELY, during the mission to DISCOURAGE detectable cheating. Only thing I said was... temp bans rather than perma bans.. and this due to the woefully tiny playerbase. I don't believe the game can survive the kind of thorough purge perma bans would give it. G1 BANNED THOUSANDS... and it solved nothing. When LO bought the game, they did mass UNBANNING, which, at the time was largely viewed favorably... not only because of false bans... but because it welcomed back a LOT of players the game NEEDED to survive. We just didn't need them back CHEATING... but 2nd and 3rd chances are HEALTHY for a small game. THUS, the issue isn't about solving the FTP bane of rerolling cheat accounts at all. PLUS, if TEMP KICKS only lasted, say 15min, 30 min, an hour... it undercuts the effort to continuously make new accounts and rage cheat on them in revenge.. never said people WON'T reroll. The whole POINT of TEMP bans is to get the anticheat to AGGRESSIVELY KICK on detection... and not require the lengthy staff intensive process of REVIEWING BANS FOR FAIRNESS which provides an unacceptable DELAY often, in past of MONTHS... before deleting someone's account. In this process... detection doesn't have to be as stringent, because the penalty isn't... People with false detections can petition support. At that point of escalating a support ticket... the LO staff can review if the detections are valid or not and help legit but pro players NOT trigger kicks. The whole point is to get cheaters BOOTED out of missions they are abusing as soon as they're detected as a DISCOURAGEMENT TO CHEATERS AND ENCOURAGEMENT TO THE LONGSUFFERING PLAYERBASE.. like a SPEED BUMP. We KNOW perma bans don't work... it just erodes the playerbase. Under YOUR scenario... a reroll account will STILL get detection and KICK... the ONLY thing he would bypass is an escalating time limit...but he would STILL be kicked for 15 min... as a cooling off period. Suppose he makes a new account.. suppose he makes 15 new accounts... or already has them... WHAT THEN? Log in-cheat-detetc... KICK..... Log in-cheat-detect... KICK... Log in-cheat-detect... KICK. THAT'S the incentive NOT to cheat. He can play on 1,000 accounts and be insta kicked ALL DAY, on detection. He can't AVOID being kicked on detection. He just loses the motivation to rage at the company for a permanent ban... and abuse the playerbase in his anger over a permanent lost account. We've ALWAYS had closet cheaters in this game... and always will. The difference is, we USED to have closet cheaters... and now, without an anticheat we have full on cheaters and raging cheaters. THIS makes the game unplayable for non-cheaters... who at least with some skill and a good team could DEFEAT closet cheaters because they cheated, but in moderation. With immediate TEMP KICK on detection... it would provide an INCENTIVE to cheaters (who we KNOW will NOT stop cheating) to at least TONE DOWN THEIR LEVEL OF CHEAT and the resultant overly aggressive playstyle (because they have no fear as their bot kills faster than humanly aiming) which, in my view, would provide a MORE FAIR GAME especially to newer, casual players. I'm not proposing anything RADICAL... in fact it's moderate in the extreme.. just a temporary discipline to promote fairness and discourage the kind of extreme cheating that cause players to stop playing. Right NOW what we have without any anticheat is FC level tryharding aggressiveness that is a playstyle which literally is overkill and exterminates the less effective (read: LEGIT) playerbase... and that is on ordinary missions... and the frequency is alarming due to Cheater Clans created in absence of ANY disciplinary policing mechanism at all.

Yeah, it was Dogfish - a guy who initially made a rage cheat account to discredit Dopefish. But after some time, when he realized he still wasn't banned, he went full closet mode, pretending to be the best APB player. There are still videos of him aimbotting on YouTube. Eventually, he was finally banned — but yeah, apparently the Russian KGB agent hacked him. I even remember i was reporting him when he was like rank 10 and hardcore spinbotting Good old days of APB and its drama

Hi everyone, I'm writing to ask if anyone else has experienced something similar. I recently purchased G1 Credits to unlock one of the reward weapons you get after spending a certain amount. After receiving the code for the AMG-556 Euryale, I redeemed it right away, but the system immediately responded with an error message: "code expired". What’s even stranger is that after that message, the code completely disappeared — it’s no longer visible anywhere in my account, purchase history, or reward list. Luckily, I had copied and saved the code before redeeming it, otherwise I wouldn’t have been able to report it or provide proof to support. I also have another code for a different weapon (C9 ‘Wasp’ – Account Lifetime) that I’m currently not using because I’m afraid the same issue might happen again. Has anyone else had this happen? Any advice on what to do or how to speed up the support process? Thanks in advance!

you'll need to create new characters and it won't affect your main account but you can't log in with steam, you gotta log in with your email and password

Hello I can't access my device with two-factor authentication installed. I want 2FA removed from my account. i can't login my acount so i am created this topic. Mail : Personal information removed. - Azukii Char: CxHeYo Server: Cİtadel(EU)

I may be wrong with the name, it was so long ago. But yeah, I also heard that this individual had claimed that their account was hacked by someone in russia, and that that person was also in tight with a few GM's. At that time, it was all about "who you know" when it came to APB justice. Fortunately times have changed, when umm, unban waves are a thing, and cheaters can play with more or less impunity. I am still somewhat optimistic that in the near future, fair gameplay will be a priority, Even if that means LO releasing their Premium Tier Aimbot/Wall hack for unrestricted use in game. Then, everyone will be playing on a level playing field. I can't wait.

It won't work atm. They will need to change the inventory system so it doesn't treat each item as a unique item. Instead of having 10 different unique IR3 mods, it needs to be a single IR3, with a quantity counter. If they want to keep the money sink, then restrict how many weapons can equip the mod at a time based on the counter. If it were me doing the change, I'd only use the quantity counter for selling items. I'd let you attach any mod even if not unlocked, but it will be greyed out until you unlock it or purchase it. This will help with joker ticket rentals for new players. I'd make it a separate database, and slowly merge accounts as users sign in. APB might already do that, but I doubt it.

I'm as antagonistic to Matt and LO as anyone... because we ALL survey the ruin the game has become... but I still have hope he can turn things around, keep the game, increase it's popularity and profitability. He JUST has to do things different that what was done to DESTROY it.. by BOTH G1 and LO... Both took EXTREME roads... 1. to exterminate cheaters.. and thus the majority of the playerbase... 2. to WELCOME cheaters.. and thus exterminate the majority of legit players. There IS a middle path... neither catering to cheaters... nor punishing them to create DDoS attacks, reroll rage botters, etc. We CANNOT stop cheaters from logging in or making new accounts. Permanent ban is FAILSAUCE. We ALSO cannot ignore them and let blatants cheat daily... it caused a MASSIVE population DROP. The key is TEMP KICKS. If someone truly believes he's being kicked unfairly with false detections.. he SHOULD be able to OPENLY work with support (not like before, if you were banned, you had NO VOICE). We can WORK with the playerbase to make the game both fair and PLAYABLE... something it IS NOT when so many people are blatantly cheating, day in and day out for days, weeks, months, years.. on so many different accounts. It just makes the game where only cheaters are competitive.. and legit players are cannon fodder... and quit... and that's a LOT of lost potential revenue.

Hello everyone, Our standard weekly maintenance will be held this Thursday (03/20) starting at 9 AM UTC. The game should be back up and running in 4 to 6 hours. Patchnotes Todays patch would have originally marked the end of the 2025 Valentines Day and Back in the Streets Events, however, due to the stability issues seen over the last two weeks we have decided to extends both Events by an additional week. Misc Changes: Improved matchmaking stability for World Server matchmaking. Valentines Day Weapons now track towards the Valentines Day Event roles as well as their regular Weapon roles. Added blocking volumes in Waterfront Block 8, 38 and 39 to prevent players from getting out of bounds. Added "Primary Weapon" and "Secondary Weapon" keybinding options. Fixed some typos in the Rare Daily activity given out by Lucas/Lynette. Thank you for your patience during this period.

We had a big ole debate on another thread.. I'll recap. The highest population to log into APB at the same time is recorded by Steam as being about 11,800ish... round it out to say 12,000. This was, I believe 2011. Back then we were modifying game files with less graphic quality to optimize frame rates.. some modified custom crosshair, removed in-game video's to shave off time.. some of these "extreme" configs did allow you a visual advantage where you could see people in doorways. Since it was against the EULA, it was debated whether bannable.. for a couple years. Longest story short players created custom LAUNCHERS.. so back in the heyday, when computers were toasters and graphic cards were doorstops... the MAJORITY of the playerbase logged in bypassing Steam or via private launchers. This would give a CONSERVATIVE ESTIMATE 2-4x... perhaps was higher. Okay, 2 x 12,000 = 24,000 and that's the lowest conservative estimate. 4 x 12,000 = 48,000. My own conservative guestimate with Colby, Han, Joker, Citadel (+ Innova but we won't coun't that even though I and many other non-Russian APB fans played on it)... 4 active servers with about 20 active districts (well not Han, it was alway's small but BIGGER population-wise than what we've become)... My personal recollection and guestimate would be between 30,000 and 40,000 active playerbase... many of whom paid for monthly subs and joker boxes. I distinctly recall G1 having banwaves of thousands... and when we finally got FairFight... and then Tiggs flipping her wig at one point manually banning almost everybody.. that there were something like between 11,000 and 14,000 BANNED. So... yeah. NOW... with LO's failed pro-cheater policies (the OPPOSITE EXTREME... and just as destructive.. we have MAYBE 1,000 active accounts on 2 servers). Here's the deal... if LO took the MIDDLE PATH... eliminated permanent bans (except for the most disruptive persons) and just used temporary kicks, immediately out of game on detection... with a working anticheat (Fairfight WAS the best)... and allowed them back in within say 15 min. No account loss... No need for rage-hacking retaliation... and even if they already had 50 accounts to cheat on... EVERY DETECTION would result in immediate 15 min kick from server. THAT WAY... legits could have a fair game.. closets could closet (they ALWAYS will).. and blatant ragebots... could F-off because it's these OUT-OF-CONTROL bots and script kiddies who cause people to AFK, log-off or outright quit... because NO ONE plays to have NO CHANCE.

Hello! This is my first ever post on the forum and first time returning to the game in many many years. I went to log in and noticed there was an error, when I select "login using steam account" on the main menu the error 11002. The problem is I never made a gamersfirst account and only ever logged in using my Steam. My email that I used for Steam does not have my character on it. My characters names where PaulBlart (enforcer) I dont remember if any of the L's where i's. HeXeH (criminal). I have screen shots on my steam account of me playing these characters that are public (Troiiie) https://steamcommunity.com/id/troiiie Please help I want to get back on my old characters and have some fun!

bro you forgot to switch accounts

So i see i haven`t missed a lot since i was away for 8 years or something like that. Didn`t even manage to play one full matchmaking as i was already kicked in the middle. Now i can`t login onto my account as it says its already running on other client.

I dont agree with the being afk unless the cheat is on your team and being real obvious. Because I wouldn't want to help him screw the other people. That said. Being kind to these hoodlums is not in my programming. Cheats are Frauds, Crooks, Thugs with a computer. Now you have to remember these people went well out of their way to ruin the game. So missions are off the table, unless you like getting botted down and running back for another. Game is unplayable with such a high percentage of hackers in NA. Matt has done nothing to create open world tasks for cops or crims. So in effect He has no Game, no product. The only way to make money facing constant hacker stacked teams is to show up but throw. Fire off a couple shots there way n die. No reason to try cuz the gold on your team will outscore you anyway, even if you do well. Oh I've thought about making an alt account and buying some hax, just to kill the hax we have. But thats not gonna make them leave, for some reason this old game attracts hackers by the droves. And it's not enough for them to just hack out the missions, they will come n find you and troll you if you aren't a hacker. So it's best to either uninstall and move on if you dont like the hackers, or go in knowing you are risking your account, and torture them. Because they aint going anywhere. Now if you hack or like hackers this is the game for you, These are Your People

I've been here for 10+ years, I know nothing is going to change and I havent played the game in months either, but I've been just thinking about APB today, coming back from time to time and making some designs for fun and to freshen up APB world but each time I think about it I get traumatised I say this as someone who has sold countless clothes and symbols on marketplace, made hundreds of different designs... marketplace and inventory management might be the biggest thing that put me off this game. This is sort of my plea that im sure many other designers are face, hoping that developers might hear and at least have a little sympathy for it, to alleviate it in any possible way. Every single time I try to design something, I have to: - First clear out my inventory by sending out clothes to my mail by cancelling them on marketplace - I have to check if those clothes are not ones I usually sell or I'm wearing on different outfit - Save inventory slots for other clothes that might fit the new item for preview - Save extra slots for different colors / versions of new item to test out with different combinations Then I have to clear out my symbol inventory: - Check which symbols i usually use and make sure they are there and not sent to mail by accident - Save space for symbols that i use on regular as my graffitti - Save space for symbols i use on designs usually such as textures, logos, etc - Save extra space for flipped, mirrored, different effects etc new symbol - Save space for at least 5-10 new symbols if I'm making a new outfit - Properly name symbol in detail so I can find it in mail in case I need it later Now if i want to sell something, I need to: - Either clear 1 slot and manually look for items one by one - Or somehow clean 20 spots and make sure all my other items are bound so these new items are easy to post - Refresh my listing's every single day So when i get an urge to design something in game, I have to go through my clothes and symbols like going through piles of clothes or pile of pokemon cards, just to remove ones that I don't need at the exact moment, and to put them on even bigger pile, where one day I might find them. And I'm apparently closesighted too because I have to manually look at each one to see what it looks like, and I also cannot see this in mail either without claiming it. God forbid there was at least a textual search system for names i tried to give. Also if I try sending designs to a storage account, I have to claim them within 30 days... On top of that, a game which has only a handful of marketplace active designers left, firstly I have to clock in the game daily... and imagine this instead of game just letting me press a button to refresh my listing, I have to manually pick it up from mail and post it again. So me trying to design something for fun in 10-30 minutes is locked behind 30 minute match of playing the sorting game, where i lose every time, and the game gets harder and harder. Every single joy of designing has been taken away by this game's such horrible way to manage its inventory, which punishes you for trying to experiment or create something.

Hi, Since I couldn't log in to my own account, I sent a support ticket through the account I just opened. Unfortunately, I didn't get a response.

hi support how to allowed my account to sell or buy or trade i play for 1 week and stale my acconut not allowed

Please stop adding legendary weapons, including this new Enchantress the last 3 “legendary” weapons could have easily just been normal guns. I’m sure the fact that legendary weapons cost up to $110 per character bound weapon vs $20 for account bound normal guns has nothing to do with it. This is a good thing, it provides another means of balance and another avenue of mechanical skill progression. I do agree that all guns should achieve maximum accuracy under specific conditions for at least the first bullet though.
