I mean, you certainly could know what you did or didn't do. (whether or not you'd be honest with us or anyone else is another issue), but obviously there is no way for you to know what someone else may have done. Especially since this time cheaters lost all their accounts, not just the ones they cheated on... I wouldn't be surprised if this also included accounts of their friend's that the cheaters happened to have played on... even if they did so without cheating. This isn't Tiggs' APB anymore. Gone are they days of catching her or her staff on a bad day and getting banned for nothing. These players were either outright flagged by BE, or banned after a long investigation by Little Orbit. Long story short don't cheat, don't share accounts, and you have nothing to worry about.

i don’t think it’s all that speculative, iirc apb created/modified a unique file for each account/login under g1 apb no idea if this still happens but i’d assume that’s an easy way to catch some unaware cheaters

Should we give out the Autumn Assault skin?
RoseTheGoat replied to MattScott's topic in General Discussion Archive
If you really felt true to giving away the skin, I believe that you should only give it as a redeem code for one character. At the least it will leave the winners will feel better, because they won and got the account bound version. -

What is your ethnicity? Also don't boost your account to 255. -
Yep, thats my problem i actually have on 4 of my accounts...

You can buy the one for Joker Tickets. Don't spend real money on it though. Get an account wide N-TEC 5 Dvah instead

I like how this thread sets once again such a good example of this community. Not specific players but this community as a whole. Before districts were without threat everyone wanted to have threat segregation removed because it causes issues like people actively dethreating to go into bronze district. So LO actually did that - not even because people were asking for it but because it seemed like they had no other option, the other half that's perfectly fine with the pitiful state the game is in goes full vocal. It's not entirely unusual, but for population numbers this small this community is quite divided. People stomping on new players un punished can be fixed in much better ways than reintroducing the system that caused things to be like this in first place. They could've made instances for people up to a certain rank or account timer and further leave everything open. People wouldn't need to dethreat then. They just have to take distance from all their posessions to roll some new account. Just a small idea that has been chewed over a thousand times before LO took over. Even this wouldn't be perfect, but it holds far more potential than the mess we have now. Instead, everyone just pulls on the brakes... Go back to the awful state of the game we were in before. Before anyone mentions it, the Engine Upgrade really is no excuse for lack of creative thinking to solve currently existing issues that might bring the game into a state where the systems everyone puts all their hopes on, god doesn't even know why but phasing I'm talking about you, won't fix any issues. This game needs a long term vision and I'd be intrigued to see more of what MattScott has in mind to do with this game, because from what I've read sofar especially after all the progress that has passed it's really insufficient to bring this game back to life.

It was always bad... ofc when there was actually a population, there were more shenanigans... but now, LO has done a few devastating things... 1. added the Russians, and 2. added the Brazilians and 3. rely on an utterly ineffective anticheat. What I well and do remember is under G1 the game had actual fast response to tickets, regular, even weekly Armas sales, GMs who at least tried to be in-game and observe based on player reports, and banned a lot of cheaters. There was a point where hardcore banning accounts was unproductive and I long advocated temp bans... but as G1's population declined, their funding declined and they stopped paying for Fairfight updates and simply manually banned in the name of Fairfight... prior to that, and had the bans been temporary and faster than Fairfight's entirely too slow algorithm, the game population would have remained stable. What LO has done to the game has shrunken the population by a magnitude of 10... leaving a game populated by thousands... a game populated by a few mere hundreds... and yes.. the SAME cheaters and exploiters who were mass unbanned... continue with impunity... because the system is so compromised, and the GMs so incapable and so lax... that nothing is done... except the playerbase continues to shrink... down that toilet bowl.

LO didn't add any of them, buddy. The publishers of the game in their countries gave up on APB; G1's the one to blame, they were the ones to create the migration system to begin with. As a BR myself, we don't enjoy playing on "your" servers, all we ever wanted and ever will is having our on server with decent ms. This can also be used for Russians, I belive, but not only for them, as Australians also fall into the equation too. Do you actually think people enjoy having to play with high ms? I don't give a shit about your xenophobia, but at least be accurate on who you're putting the blame on. How can EAC be an "utterly ineffective anticheat"? It's used in one of the most successful games in history, it's basically at the same level of BE and only loses to FaceIT Client which is a absolutely invasive AC. Some other points that you check before saying it's ineffective: P2C providers vanished almost completely since EAC was implemented; R255 cheaters used to almost rage-cheat in FC servers, now from time to time you only see some r40 doing this on EU, which means that some of them ARE getting banned; Fairfight is obsolete, which means that EAC is already superior to it. Also, take in consideration that LO claims to have something else to analyse the gameplay pattern of reported players, so it is something already. Support is working as intended. I just had a problem with my account and the max waiting time I've had was 2 days, which isn't bad for a small team of customer support; There are weekly updates and patch notes, those not having sales sometimes doesn't mean it's bad; Fairfight never worked for this game, and it never will. Fairfight is an obsolete system in general due to the "evolution" of the cheating scene mainly with randomization (let's not get too in-depth on this one, but can check a forum with u and c and do some research on FF); Check steamcharts for the recent numbers pre-LO and post-LO, you'll see that the game have been losing 1k players each year since 2015, so LO isn't making more people leave, they were leaving long time ago; They were unbanned because G1 manually banned alot of them, as you've said.

Mitne RIOT rant - aka. how not to do BR in small population.
Mitne replied to Mitne's topic in General Discussion Archive
Oh btw. I'm gonna add few new complaints and fix to my complaint after playing today: What is wrong with RIOT: Bribing stage. You killed every enemy team? TOUGH LUCK. This who bribed most auto-win! (The fuck was this shit? I won for FIRST time since 3 days. But game said I didn't. Why? Because they bribed driver HIGHER. How does it even make sense?! Corpses gonna drive out from zone?! And who gonna carry them?! Team which lost?! Lore-wise, function-wise and fairness-wise this is idiotic as hell.) 16 people TO START (Yeah, good luck keeping this gamemode alive after month. FC dies because there are only 2-3 people always missing to start it and you want to keep regulars at RIOT? Ha. Good joke. Quick glance at will.io/apb and they will resign.) Three easy achievements and one impossible (You all though wins gonna be easy to achieve, right? Ten fucking wins. Are you mad? And all of it JUST for 100 JTs.) ~ (Sidenote: I'm gonna farm this achievement so badly by rigging RIOT and I dare you to ban me. Credibility is lost. I see people rigging up this thing already for wins. Congratulations.) Clarification to one of complaints: Bribing at the end (Excuse me... why we even collect that cash... if "bribing" means bribing with non-existent cash in king-of-the-hill style? - encourage camping at finale zone as well) - after investigating it longer, it turns out bribes come from team account. -
some people i seen streaming start to hate people with cyrillic alphabet. all those accounts playing whit that alphabet arent able to be reported by the apb report system. is this a way so they can't be reported and can't be touched. ( i don't want to put names on name and shame but there a few clips on twitch with that issue.)
-
Seems like it was put back up at it's usual price without much thought put in, so I am not surprised nor annoyed at the price or the lack of account bound option At least it's better than 5 dollars for just a hat :')
-
i’m going to give orbit the benefit of the doubt and assume this was a test for the eventual shift of all current armas items to account bound, and not orbit assuming all the people asking for new clothes wanted poorly designed “sets” (i use this word very loosely) of preset clothing
-
A little off-topic from me here: that's s nice design and stuff, but what about optimize ARMAS next? You know, I have like 3 active chars, and I wanna some packs from armas in account lifetime which is not. You know, Paramilitary, Tactical and all. I consider acc-time packs could and should cost more, but I prefer higher price more than. Call me a dumbass but only packs I wanna buy next is KTTW and KTTC. Sorry for my bad English but I should leave my opinion about it someplace. (And also Kissaki for crims pls)

LO should seriously consider bringing back the daily events we used to have once or at least introducing some sort of daily login rewards. They can tweak the list of rewards to avoid multi-accounting abuse, but they can and should keep Jocker Tickets as one of the possible rewards. Besides, people would have a reason (more) to log in. I am surprised that's still not a thing in APB.
-
I quit once. Even deleted every character on my account (since you can't have the account itself deleted - at least not back then), just to to make it easier to not return. Then I heard that LO took over and ended up getting sucked back down the rabbit hole. -
Downtime compensation - 7 Days of Premium
skaered replied to MattScott's topic in General Discussion Archive
uhh well i didnt get it on one account but other accounts of me did. and i had premium activated before on there. so now i just lost some days of premium and didnt get anything back. and also theres a problem about creating characters. it doesnt work. i deleted a character on an account of mine so a friend could have that name. but apparently its not possible to create characters anymore. i also tried creating it on that account which got 2 free character slots and yet it showed the error message that the account does not have any free character slots.. (i cannot get rid of the character selecting menu at the moment, its just a blank window. but i also checked yesterday when i could select a character, and people already told me they got the premium while i didnt) -
Hah... owned. Jokes aside, I assume its to give you time to learn your account has been hijacked before the hijacker can send your shit to other accounts. That is, even if someone got access to your account, they couldnt steal anything for 6 days. -
There's a new restriction apparently (as the title says) when trying to email an attachment in-game. But how exactly does this HELP protect my account? I don't see how this protects people's accounts in particular. Is any login info/passwords or other personal info compromised when emailing an attachment in-game? Didn't think so. I find it quite annoying that i can't use my own computers (i have two), and be able to play the game without silly restrictions. -
That is some great news indeed, and should make it near impossible to get your account hacked/hijacked. And also good to hear there won't be any issues mailing items after switching from one computer to another.
-
But we have it already. It's called two-way verification. Unless somehow you got stolen/compromised Android/iOS then I don't see how you can even lose that account. Chance of guessing code is 1 to 531441 and after each attempt verificiation code auto-reset on failed attempt (to prevent brute-force attack).

What to do if blocked, but I did not do this?

seems like too much effort for a banned account on a dead game, but you do you homeslice -

Sayori replied to Tappey's topic in General Discussion Archive
Lets be honest, most of the time when people unlink their accounts from steam it's because they are selling it. And showing a screenshot from the original mail also doesn't prove anything. Some people sell their apb accoutns with the email because you can't change the email unless you have both current and new email. Removed Xenophobia ~@mayii -

BrandonBranderson replied to Tappey's topic in General Discussion Archive
Woah hold up a second there. Just my opinion but you shouldn't have him send the weapons back just yet. If they are sitting in your mail and you don't retrieve them from your mail within 30 days then the guns go bye-bye. Found that out from mailing a gun to a different character on the same account. So if you don't get back into your account within 30 days then those guns are gone. So don't have him send them back unless you know for sure that your issue is going to be fixed and that you're going to be able to log in within 30 days. -
you can buy immediately a package with 255 LVL and full pumping . once upon a time your account had a lifetime premium . you don't need to play , just pay the money .
