For those who are having trouble, could you describe what is happening in more detail? What are you seeing? Do you get an error? What specifically doesn't work?

 

EDIT - For those having trouble with the link, here is the full URL: http://apb.patch.beta.gamersfirst.com/APB_Beta_Installer.exe

 

I have confirmed that navigating to that address starts the download on my system. You may have to copy and paste or right click and save as if simply clicking the link does not work. If these workarounds do not solve things for you, please let me know.

Thanks!

Hopefully the EU will bring population back. LO must work hard in order to fix years of damage caused by G1/RP.

The server is sending the file without using encryption, which Chrome thinks is unsafe because he always tries to go to https by default, and I think it's looking for the gamersfirst website certificate. Just click "Keep".

Replacing "http" with "https" made it throw a security error for me on Firefox because of this, but I am able to get the file just fine without encryption.

How are you surprised by this? The menu/title screen would be the last (or near last) thing they'd bother optimizing if their development priorities are in order. Especially if they're still intending to just replace it with the original (or similar to original) one.

Welp that link worked.

[PotatoeGirl 220]

Looks like I am coming back just in time. Hope that i can get to the menus at least this time.

 

Btw the link only works if I copy-paste it in a new window. Clicking it closes it automatically.

There's an odd bug Ive noticed that if I do not have steam running the login scene hitches, but smooth if the steam login button is there. Its very odd. Point is anyway that I wouldn't judge overall performance on that menu alone

Just out of curiosity, will progress made on the beta be added to the main account?

in case u didnt know, amd 5000 series are all better than new intel cpus (for gaming AND productivity).

 

amd  RX 6900xt will be also better than 3070/ 3080 but with a lower price. Hell, even RX 6800 XT will be better than 3080.

Don't worry some people are still stuck living in 2010, it makes them feel good about themselves.

Right click it and save target or open in a new tab. Those worked for me.

If you don't think you'll make it in time, just use one of the links I posted before. Those links will give you a zipped copy of the entire game folder

They shouldn't, they have the launcher which downloads the files.

 

I just know that sometimes the speeds can be a bit lacking so figured this could help out
