glaciers 5929 Posted August 30, 2019 Quote we'll also be running an event in Test Districts to allow players to earn Joker Tickets 3slot golden osmaw here i come Quote So on September 11th at 10am PST, Kempington will be hosting another Question & Answer session with me on his Twitch channel. friendly reminder that everyone should use the restroom before the stream starts Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Snubnose 638 Posted August 30, 2019 Quote Next week, we'll be adding a new round of weapons, and to spice things up we'll also be running an event in Test Districts to allow players to earn Joker Tickets for helping us test. here's hoping I'm getting some love... anyway, good idea making people earn some JT's to test new balance changes. is this event going to be something like "kill x players with *testweapon*"? would make sense to make people actually use the test weapons to earn JT's...

Head to the link above to read the latest and greatest things happening in APB. Damn, you guys really pushing forward APB and the community, never seen so many news and things coming, and if i ever saw them was really ages ago. Thank you very much for caring about us, i won't forget that. Honestly i can't wait for all the changes coming down the way, because like you said now Australia team are also paying attention to APB LIVE and future updates together you guys. Best of the luck for you, and keep pushing, keep màke moves like those. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sayori 294 Posted August 30, 2019 (edited) Quote character or clan name that hasn't been logged into for a year or more. So if you want to keep your name (assuming it doesn't have any special symbols in it), then all you have to do is log that character in This is not very clear at all. Does it mean that if I login to play daily but I haven't used a character over an year* that name will be released despite that the account in general is active? edit: and why don't you guys make your own stream instead rather than promoting and relying on others? Same applies for discord. For example CCP have own twitch channel where they do streams rather than picking the "top" streamer and being unfair towards the rest. That's how it's done. Professionalism. Edited August 30, 2019 by Sayori 1 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

PoshDoll 92 Posted August 30, 2019 the only thing that got me excited is the q&a with our beloved pillar of the community. the rest is the same mumbo jumbo we've been hearing. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

GhosT 1291 Posted August 30, 2019 Will there be any way to check if a desired name is free or taken? You used to be able to do that via armas gifting, but that feature is long gone. My alt needs a new name and I don't feel like wasting money on a name change that I eventually won't be able to use. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Uhtdred 220 Posted August 30, 2019 so the new "merge" is in october? damn, time to take a break for a month.. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
fragmeister 37 Posted August 30, 2019 (edited) @MattScott Please do something to encourage new and low skilled players to join clans, make teams and have some social aspect so they will get less STOMPED and not quit the game forever. May be some JTs or rewards for people who play together ? APB is all about communication and then comes skills. Also even if they loose as a team, they feel less bad lol and continue to have fun around ! I ve been there Edited August 30, 2019 by fragmeister 3 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

As for what i have been saying, yes every few months i will come in and read a post and say the same thing. I would however like them to post some video footage and "more" screenshots. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Not 100% recent but here's this: This is from before Matt made any stance on the visual direction of the engine upgrade though. I think I remember him saying something about a lot of people liking what the game used to look like so they were going to steer in that direction or something like that. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
