I doubt you'll have to wait for long, I can't see how LO can possibly be drawing in enough revenue to pay the bills at this point. I can't see the engine upgrade ever getting a full release ,and if it does I suspect it will be such a disaster that it'll make the launch of CP2077 seem like a resounding success .

greenfield 135 Posted January 16, 2021 stupid and pessimistic threads.. people were calling this game dead 5 years ago and we're still here. If you don't like it just move on jeeezzz. I think LO will continue supporting the game and the end is nowhere near. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Haganu 105 Posted January 16, 2021 Can't place bets as someone coming from the Netherlands Sadge. I want this game to be shut down, though. Outlived its potential for far too much and long. This game's "potential" isn't worth shit anymore. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bellenettiel 232 Posted January 17, 2021 Part of me wish G1 was still running the development, not because I like them or think they'd do a better job than little orbit. Just wanted to see them sink the ship themselves, as some sort of cosmic justice thing. But sadly it sold and I genuinely feel sorry for LO for what will happen once the engine upgrade releases. Doubt anyone will want to wait a bit longer to see what happens after it has an new engine. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Offer an incentive for them to play and hopefully bring their viewers along with them. Obviously this would need to be done after the engine-update is out and is in a somewhat polished state. I guess this just comes under the whole 'marketing' idea. Summit1G is our best bet, but the game needs to be good before it's advertised Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TzickyT 212 Posted January 20, 2021 the servers wil last how long LO inteds to host them we have seen Na die already for pc version but i hear that the ps5 versio of the game had a slight increase of population. idon't thik that the server wil be going offline any time soon before 2025 if we don't get a engine upgrade til than i thik the population wil dwindel to a mere 50 playerbase. i can't realy say more i don't have any trust in this with this live engine Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Personally I am betting 2022. Maybe later in the year. Engine update will come out and the game will still die. Alternative is LO moves on, stops supporting APB after realising it isn't going anywhere, and has to do something else to save their company. So APB just sits there alive until the servers dwindle to 50 people and 2030 rolls around for the final coffin. As long as people keep wasting money it's gonna keep going. When money stops, they're gonna close it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
