The only way to bypass this was to just click the district button on the main screen and hope you enter a lower threat district.

The only way to bypass this was to just click the district button on the main screen and hope you enter a lower threat district. But that wouldn't solve things cuz there are still ppl already hitted 255 on several chars and million craploads of ABP$. Imo there is only one way to fix all of it: 1. They have to patch in the fun again.. Why not let ppl jump onto that crane, roof, water or whatever? The whole OOB thing is just a cheap way to save work (making items respawning when oob, just kill VIPs when oob not everyone). 2. Rework Threat System OR make servers 50vs50 again that the current System can try to work at all and that would also make san paro feel alive again. 3. Remove Segregation! Its soooooo useless also on Citadel. Silver- or Bronce-district it just doesn't matter cuz u nearly always still get matches like: I was on bronce district, me beeing silver and 3 golds vs. 3 silvers and 1 bronce (we lost and i went gold ) I joined silver district and straight the first 2 matches with the same ppl... me beeing gold + 1 silver, 1 gold premade vs. 3 gold premade. ( 1st win 2nd lose and i went silver again ) Edited March 1, 2021 by HighSociety 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I figured that G1/RP flushed away 4465 from 5592 peak withing 5 years and abandoned the game for almost one year completely because everytime i was taking a look at the forums there was nothing new before i was about to ditch APB for something else. Then LO came. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Reprimand 98 Posted March 4, 2021 If you guys really want to fix the mess that is matchmaking, you'll remove ranked districts altogether and actually focus on match size rather than ratio count. A 7v7 is always more enjoyable than 2 bronzes vs 1 gold, and I guarantee you more often than not a group match is easier to play, more enjoyable and you suffer less rookie crushing because at least you can coordinate better, gold or not. Yeah, you get stomped by yourself, but if you rally up with your team? UNSTOPPABLE. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Lucesan 36 Posted March 5, 2021 Well there is some salt around here I don't know about you guys but I have seen more and more GMs lately, I think they are just more discreet than the GMs of G1 Anyways, yeah the game is not on its best state but you can thank G1 for that imo. At least LO is really working towards an engine upgrade and other things that will definitely improve the playerbase Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bruhd101 24 Posted March 7, 2021 i just love how the next day after i helped revive bronze district(before that it would never reach 10 people it was about 4-5 people) by letting all the new players and bronzes to get free kills we already had a gold that morning Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I think it's best to not just give them free kills. New players want to test stuff and wanna know how the game works. Best you can do is explain stuff to them and maybe make it a little bit harder for them to kill you like running around and make them aim while you just dont shoot at them. Just letting them kill you won't safe the game i guess. Edited March 7, 2021 by JunoSuzuki Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
