toodamnmuch 12 Posted July 8, 2019 every ban should be a hardware ID ban by default, at least this way the retards who don't use brain wouldn't come back instantly with a different account. really get sick of literally every day another reroll blatant hacker who never loses, frankly if you're under r195 and gold you should be instantly-banned because you're either getting carried or you're doing way better than any actual newbie would. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

So you're saying I can't go and play on my low rank on the same account?(Btw, there are new players who actually know how to play shooters who rank into gold first time playing, I know it's hard for some people people to believe) EDIT: Wait, wait wait... 43 minutes ago, toodamnmuch said: You should be instantly-banned because you're either getting carried So being carried is a bannable offense in your book?

Oh god I hope for your own sake that was a joke. I have a friend who had a lot of shooter experience from CSGO, and when he picked up APB for the first time aiming was just second nature to him and it only took him about a day to get his situational awareness at a decent level and a little longer to get used to the menus and inventory. He went gold pretty quick and never dipped back into silver. Granted he only played for probably about a month before he got into other games, but the point still stands that you can just pick up the game and go gold as long as you have shooter experience.

Anyone who is blatantly cheating should be instantly banned. Rank has nothing to do with it. And anyone who is cheating should be banned, again regardless of rank. That is factually not what he’s saying, though. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

AxeTurboAgresor 268 Posted July 8, 2019 Gold ≠ Good. Gold = average gamer, and above. That made me freakin laugh. If you played any shooter game b4, u ll get gold in no time. Bronze and silver is there to make handicapped minority feel safe and happy. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sadira 292 Posted July 8, 2019 You will never be able to 'fix' the reroll 'problem' as long as this game continues to remain F2P. And as others said already, hardware ID and IPs can easily be spoofed, so nothing changes. Also... I was under rank 195 and gold for the longest time, probably for like 2 years, mainly because I'm lazy with leveling. Does that mean I should get banned too? 10/10 brain 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Edit : stop rerolls - is a broad term. some refer to new accounts while others refer to new char slots. if you mean new char slots that supports APB and everyone has the right to buy new char slots. if you mean a new account , some people live for shooter games while others may possibly be a cheater returning. Regardless banning someone just because they are low level and good is by far a terrible idea to do on its own if there is no cheating involved.

gogol 53 Posted July 8, 2019 (edited) you cant just stop rerolls on a F2P game, if they had to pay for each reroll then maybe they'd stop (although i'm sure 90% of them would pay and continue to reroll) also threat is account wide mi amigo, low rank gold means nothing Edited July 8, 2019 by gogol Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It was pretty easy to see that he didn't mean legitimate R195 players. I fixed your post. If he wanted to say that, he would have. He has the tools to convey his message and in this case it was clear what he meant. This is putting words in his mouth and even if this idea was the case people should be more responsible for their words. There is nothing that happens after R195 that changes what a cheating player is. So if OP was talking about cheating 195 vs legit 195 he would have specified. Dont let this be you kids, be responsible and take accountability for your words and you wont have people like this using your words for their ideas.
