blockblack 91 Posted November 22, 2019 (edited) There are some bugs in APB that are sticking here since the release of the game, These bugs literally been here for like 7~8 years now and still not fixed... here are some examples of the vehicle Physical bugs: -Car exploding when getting under a phone box -Car exploding when getting between traffic poles (these poles that prevent cars from getting into buildings and some areas) -Car exploding when getting under a bridge or other tight areas -Car exploding when the the 2 right wheels are on the ground and the 2 left wheels are on a wall at 45 Degrees Here are examples of weapon Physics bugs (only shotguns are bugged): -Shotgun damage sometimes be way too low even though all of the shots hit the target in a close range, Shotguns have very unrealistic Physics and Brust size (shot radius) simply, Shotgun Physics should be improved instead of nerfing it... Hitbox bugs: -Inaccurate hitboxes -Sometimes hitboxes don't respond to hits even though the player is not disconnected (it is a very rare case but I noticed it before) Client Side bugs: -Co-drivers hearing Nitro Booster sound all the time even though it is not activated in some cars that have Nitro Booster mod -Car Vinyls and designs and textures for some cars appear really messed up and teared and un-clear and some areas look like metallic white chrome -Seeing some white textures appearing for Particles of a second and some flickering textures for some GPUs -Having some sudden FPS drops even though the PC Performance is stable and the player is not in a moving state ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ So this is the list of the bugs that I have personally noticed, some people haven't noticed these bugs so they may dis-agree with me... this is just my personal list, so it's a matter of opinion Edited November 22, 2019 by blockblack 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Posted November 22, 2019 (edited) I have noted so many more and alredy sent out with support tickets, they said were going to fix these, but no date about what that is going to happen. Edited November 22, 2019 by Guest Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Probably after engine update, I keep telling GMs about it and they say it is currently very hard to fix until the figure out the code spaghetti gamersfirst left.

CookiePuss 5373 Posted November 22, 2019 We should start a forum section for bugs. That kind of thing would be really helpful. /s 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

vsb 6170 Posted November 22, 2019 half of these aren’t even bugs 2 hours ago, blockblack said: Car exploding when getting under a phone box -Car exploding when getting between traffic poles (these poles that prevent cars from getting into buildings and some areas) -Car exploding when getting under a bridge or other tight areas these are all the same issue, it’s the result of the vehicle hitbox being subjected to a situation that it judges to be massively/continuously damaging - your car is crushing itself between immovable objects it may not make sense for the car to explode, but that’s a gameplay design choice and it’s not like shooting a car until it explodes makes sense either this could probably be “solved” by smoothing out or extending the hitboxes of immovable objects but then you’d end up with invisible barriers that don’t line up with the visible objects 2 hours ago, blockblack said: Here are examples of weapon Physics bugs (only shotguns are bugged): -Shotgun damage sometimes be way too low even though all of the shots hit the target in a close range, 2 hours ago, blockblack said: -Sometimes hitboxes don't respond to hits even though the player is not disconnected (it is a very rare case but I noticed it before) these are the same “bug” all weapons suffer from poor hit registration, it’s caused by low tick rate servers and poor net code 2 hours ago, blockblack said: Shotguns have very unrealistic Physics and Brust size (shot radius) simply, Shotgun Physics should be improved instead of nerfing it... another gameplay design choice, and one that’s used in almost every other shooter shotguns can’t have 50m range and still be balanced in apb i do think shotgun range is too low atm but you have to remember that their limited range is the only downside shotguns really have, every extra meter of range you allow makes that downside less and less significant 2 hours ago, blockblack said: -Inaccurate hitboxes this is a deliberate design choice to allow for apb’s extensive customization, if hitboxes were the exact size of your character then a majority of people would use the smallest skinniest character customization possible 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
