Tbh....Maybe Eventually I'm gonna spend another $100 one way or the other...I might as well get a another account bound weapon with it. It's better than Gold Mystery Boxes and 15 days Premium codes.

Here's your answer: to ask if there is a fucking chance they'll add that ^ Now let me ask you, your reply? To criticize someone for complaining about losing a gun they never really used anyways? It's still a lost weapon, and although I don't think an account-bound inventory should exist, I don't understand the level of hostility coming from your post. Then again, it's typical among the people in this community. Anyways... I'm kinda surprised you even care about the FFA at this point, especially considering the fact that you don't really need money and never really play the game anymore. But I guess if I were in your position, I'd still want to keep all the legendaries I have...and if one went missing I'd want it back, even though I really don't use it. I know that feeling all too well .-.

Wouldn't an "account-wide inventory" defeat the purpose of account-bound weapons? Unless they like, had a faction-bound (only crim / only enf) inventory instead, but even then many people only play one or the other, so that could cause a lot of lost revenue. Your specific situation seems to be a personal problem, and support may or may not help you because it does seem to be a problem that you caused yourself. On top of that, complaining and then backtracking by saying that it doesn't matter to you because you don't play apb any more? Don't complain about stuff that requires you to play, if you simply don't.

i mean, my ticket i talked about in my last thread, still no answer. another account that's missing an account bound weapon, probably 40+ days with no answer no, it's not worth it
-
perhaps add these to the rewards in whatever appropriate place? -skin selector -vehicle selector -inventory expansion selector since these are given as codes that are account bound they wouldn’t really be exploitable

true, but I think you missed my edit on the post above, I updated it with: "actually, make it so you have to play 1h in an action district (or complete 5 opposed missions). or, bound it completely to hours played instead of making it a daily thing..." this would probably make people re-consider abusing the system, since they'd have to play double the time every day to get extra joker boxes... and 1h (or ~5 missions) playtime yield ~10k cash anyway, so what's +3k extra every second day, when you can easily farm money faster in fightclub... joker tickets are account bound anyway and everything you buy with them, so that's fine. if someone really wants to play 1h extra every day, making it 7h per week for 1 single joker box that will probably just yield a 3 day weapon, that's fine with me lol. they'd have to play a lot more hours on a lot more accounts if they want to farm JB's for legendaries effectively. no one is going to play 5h on 5 different accounts, for 7 days every day just to get a slightly bigger chance for a legendary... that's nuts.

So very much this. There's people who literally can't spend more on ARMAS simply because they're at the inventory cap and would have to delete existing ARMAS items to make space for new stuff. Obviously, this isn't something they're going to do, as there's no way to get the items they deleted back (even account bound stuff). I'm almost there myself with weapons, and hit that point long ago with vehicles (although vehicles aren't as big a deal because you can always rebuy later... but you'd lose all your customizations which makes it a huge loss regardless).

Most packs will come with a "Clothes + Weapon" variant. The issue is that the pricing is all over the place when it comes to clothing packs. Allow me to demonstrate (All prices are with premium discount): These are the impact forearm pads, they cost 49 g1c to purchase. This is the Impact Bonus Pack. It contains 6 pieces of clothing including the aforementioned impact forearm pads. By the above pricing, that clothing by itself should cost 294 g1c. However the pack also comes with a 30 day ATAC "Watchman", which can be bought for 399 g1c. It also includes a unique ATAC skin, which we could generously price as 319 g1c (Same price as a standard character bound weapon skin). In total this pack should technically cost 1,012 g1c. It actually costs 1,679 g1c. If you repeat the same process with this Fashionable Flat Cap: You get a supposed total of 937 g1c (Unfortunately you can't rent a silenced CPMB-45, so I used the 30 day price of the regular CPMB-45 which may I add is more expensive than the silenced PMG on Armas, additionally this pack does not include a weapon skin). The pack actually sells for 2,079 g1c. I think it was long known that G1 was inflating clothing pack prices by inserting 30 day weapons as well as adding in random pieces of clothing (The Punk Pack is a great example of this, everyone was clamouring for backpacks and goggles, and they bumped the price up by including torn t-shirts and jeans). This irregularity can be extended to just the clothing packs in general: Tactical Pack: 11 pieces of clothing for 959 g1c. Punk Pack: 5 pieces of clothing for 2,079 g1c. Heavy Duty Pack: 7 pieces of clothing for 1,679 g1c. I think honestly the clothing pack prices for many of the packs are a bit exorbitant. I would kill to see an account bound upgrade for clothing packs in a similar fashion to how they did it with weapons (Those who paid more for character bound clothing packs get a free upgrade to account bound, although I will admit this might be a step too far for LO to take)

why did you delete the character? armas is usually pretty clear about character bound vs account bound

Well, good to know that submitting a post edit also resubmits quote/mention notifications. Wasn't going to comment, but eh, might as well if you're gonna poke me. As someone who owns both existing packs (Juggernaut and Revelations), I would happily purchase more (assuming they gave similar value in the form of multiple guns, a car, clothing, etc). You could make them all reskins of existing weapons/cars, and I'd be just as satisfied with my purchase though. I would also greatly appreciate more loyalty reward tiers, as I've spent more than enough to get at least the next few tiers retroactively. How about slapping that FFA 5.56 R&D III in loyalty rewards, since you can't get it via JMBs anymore? I ask this as someone who already owns the tradeable JMB version, so I have very little to gain from it. To add to the idea pool of ways to generate income with existing assets, how about adding the variant role unlocks to ARMAS? Stuff like N-TEC Stock, JG Tactical, etc. The only reason I haven't purchased the N-TEC account bound yet is because I can't purchase the Stock variant. Easy money for the effort of an intern's lunch break. We still don't have a three slot Scoped N-TEC available, and there's no longer an excuse to not add it as the VAS Scepter exists. Another instant purchase. Slap a scope on the CR-5 and I'd buy that one as well. I like the aesthetic of N-TEC for my Criminal and CR-5 for my Enforcer. Fite me. Could also add O-PGL and OSMAW on there, since ARMAS long ago dropped any pretense of not having purchasable explosive weapons. If you're feeling extra saucy, how about adding the lineup of Less than Lethal weapons, with the three primaries having open slots? I'd buy all five account bound, without hesitation. -
debundle everything, make buying all items from a pack individually cost more than the pack, make all purchases account bound armas fixed

Schoolgirl and goth schoolgirl packs account bound for a limited time? I have multiple characters, 1399 per character is a bit steep. Could also make all guns 50% off, but that might be a little too dark.

So I know people have gone over this idea time and time and again, also I did make a thread on this 2 or 3 months ago, and it seemed to get some good feedback but there hasn't been an official statement on it from the staff of LO. So account merging in a nutshell: - The ability to merge in game accounts - A program you don't have to do unless you want to it - Maybe done through support or some other way (idk lol) Benefits of account merging: - Accounts have so many unique items to where other accounts don't have those items (Ex. OBT Veteran Title, merge an account with that title with an account without one, the combined account has the OBT title) - This could protect people from their account(s) being accessed by someone else and being stolen since that used to a happen a lot and probably still does - Premium for all your characters on one master account - Buying account bound weapons, clothing packs, etc, would be so much more beneficial. Cons of account merging: - None (at least I hope so) The reason I'm all for this is because I have many accounts that I actively use and manage daily and it's a pain in the patootie playing favorites when only 1 of your accounts has premium, one has the OBT title, and one has the KTTW pack. If all my accounts were put into one, god I wouldn't have to worry about what account to manage or whatever. All I'm asking is for an official statement on this, considering I made a thread about this months ago, and other people have thrown around the idea countless times.

I only bring up ARMAS costs because if you dont think you should have to pay more for a legendary than for an account bound ARMAS gun, then what is the point of having JMB anyways?
-
Far too high. Im wondering, DO you think acquiring a legendary should ever require spending more than you would for an account bound ARMAS weapon ?
-
adding new ways for players to obtain f2p content is something that needs to happen imo i think role level 5, 10, and 15 should unlock the corresponding 0slot, 1slot, and 2slot armas weapons for leasing perhaps role 16 could unlock 3slot armas weapons for leasing, or possible even create a role 17 for that i really like the idea of roles being account bound tho

The speed at which bullets move wasn't changed, so that's not really anything that needs fixing ^This Though the Fang now has a ttk of around 1.24 seconds, you also have a 47.5m damage dropoff (49m if new IR stats go live)vs a 40m damage dropoff. Try to think of it as different rather than worse when compared to the standard RFP. Full disclosure: I have the Fang account bound on 2 accounts and I too was rather upset at first, but once you get used to it the Fang is still a monster of a gun.

Can we make APB more newbie friendly?
Rikard86 replied to foolish ninja's topic in General Discussion Archive
Districts should be segregated by rank, not threat level - ex. R < 100, R < 195, R > 195, with of course a "free" district where you can challenge other players regardless of your rank. Rank to be calculated across all characters in your account by the way, not a single character (a player with a character over 200 making a new toon will be forced to play in R > 195 or Free). People will of course flock the Free channels to get more variety but that way newbies have a safe haven to learn the ropes against other newbies before gradually moving up. And permanent weapons could be the biggest money/time sink ever if they made it like RTW 3-slotters. APB$1M *and* 10,000 kills with a weapon class for a single weapon is enough of a daunting task to make people consider buying permanent account bounds, not to mention that if they want the same weapon on a different character they'd have to do it again every time. -
You get the version for whatever character you have selected on the ARMAS page. So female character would get female boots, male character would get male boots. There is no way to exchange, and no option for account-bound.
-
A blackjack minigame (and other tabletop games) would be nice, though I don't think it would work within this suggestion since account bound joker tickets would also now be untradeable.
-
That plus getting a second gun for dirt cheap. Gifting a friend the character bound then "upgrading" to the account bound for a small fee was a big problem I imagine. oh that was an issue for ages bro. So even tho i do love gifting a lot it's best for them to fix it, and then maybe enable it again in the future
-
I beleive it was due to the large number of gifting chargebacks and the resulting costs in both time and money needed to sort them out. That plus getting a second gun for dirt cheap. Gifting a friend the character bound then "upgrading" to the account bound for a small fee was a big problem I imagine.
-
A while ago I gifted someone the Pestilence Overalls (character bound), I still have the cheap option for account bound
-
Some time ago, I got an offer on Armas for the Scoped Ntec RT1 for only 322 G1C Character Perma, when I bought it that was the first time ever when I spent any money in-game I still have the option to buy Account bound RT1 for 345 G1C My question is, will there be more offers like this one? Or was this a one time thing ?
-
another bump, with the suggestion that if this happens the transition should be handled similar to how g1 approached the addition of account bound weapons character bound items that were purchased before x date would be upgraded to account bound for free if you have multiple character bound purchases of the same item on an account, you are refunded the g1c cost for any duplicates
