blockblack 91 Posted July 31, 2019 I just went to check the JT store today and... WTF, All weapons in it are now offered Perma for free, I saw a sh*t-load of folks in-front of Wilde impressed of what just happened, So why did LO do that? and will they do another small patch to revoke what they just did?

MattScott 15242 Posted July 31, 2019 Hi all, Sorry for the late explanation. This was intentional, although we need to adjust a couple things. Edit: Nitronik beat me to the link. Thanks, Matt 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Flylow 8 Posted July 31, 2019 1 hour ago, illgot said: so, no more pay to win arguments if you can literally obtain weapons in game permanently. I mean the game was hardly ever p2w. But yea, this stops the braindead idiots that never played the game from using it as an argument. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CookiePuss 5379 Posted July 31, 2019 The game starts pay 2 win (new players f2p vs new player ARMAS), becomes less so as more player time is invested, and eventually ends up at least sort of fair between free and paid players. Adding permanent f2p weapons is a big step in improving that last bit. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Flaws 1033 Posted August 1, 2019 This is a massive step in the right direction for APB. Like in other games, as long as it's accessible through grind completely free of charge - no P2W arguments can be made. Also with the revamped Premium in mind, there is nothing people can complain about. If they want something, it's right there for them to grind out. Now we also need some more customizable cosmetic items added there to spruce up the otherwise stale and boring F2P design part of the game. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
blockblack 91 Posted August 1, 2019 For anyone that never noticed, APB Was never pay to win, APB Was always pay to look cool. 19 hours ago, MattScott said: Hi all, Sorry for the late explanation.

Thanks, Matt Hmmm, the CEO of LO replied to my topic, I think that's quite rare, but not very rare since not much new topics are created on APB Forum.

TheDogCatcher 176 Posted August 1, 2019 I really appreciate the opportunity to spend all those worthless joker tokens that I've accumulated over the years, however I do wonder how this is going to affect ARMAS sales. also not sure if allowing players to purchase a permanent OSMAW is really a good thing, you can't even get one of those with real money.

It's not. But at least now there's something you can't buy with irl$.... I guess. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Pangolier 10 Posted August 2, 2019 Instead of jt, armas weapons should be tradeable. More income with same results... and reviving the game economy (this is needed). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Letter 25 Posted August 3, 2019 (edited) I've dreamed about this day since 2013. This is a whole new epoch for the game. Thanks for the change, LO! And grats, everyone! edit: although I suspect my legendaries now cost twice less than yesterday. Edited August 3, 2019 by Letter Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
