I must admit that, until today, I was convinced schadenfreude is a German word with no one-word English equivalent, but I was wrong, the English word for schadenfreude is epicaricacy. We learn something new every day.

I mean, the game's quite fun (when you get decent matches). That fact isn't mutually exclusive with the facts that Little Orbit is just another rebranding of K2 (with extra steps), and MattScott is a scumbag who's openly lying to the community to get people to spend more money on the game (this is known as "predatory marketing" and is both morally and ethically disgusting).

well this explains alot of the "hold back" on enigne fallen earth etc. dumbo over here said "hey lets try to sue someone that we owe and i'm sure the judge will just take it because they owe us actuality"

 

well because of there actions good luck with anything because it seems LO is already breaching bankruptcy, and if i get tagged for a ban i know dam well you fuckers are and are embarrassed about what you tried

 

these two games have the biggest rabbits hole i've ever seen stories confirmed to be true from players to devs still amaze me

After getting false banned without any proves and one of the LO employee telling me I deserved that ban I feel satisfaction reading the article

[DedGaem 147]

Sad... it shows that LO has no proper judgment, no adequate cash to successfully develop or run a game (obviously) and probably no developer studio... and is just a BIG FAT LIE of a company that promised the moon and delivered a turd.  Since LO bought the game they did nothing but let it rot and die. Seriously, for all the hate, under Tiggs and G1 at least there WAS a gameplaying population... and a functional anticheat. BLEH BLEH BLEH no anticheat killed APB. Thanks LO you deserve to go bankrupt.  The decisions you made were atrocious.

[Phrozen 32]

This just in, licensed, known developer for highly acclaimed officially licensed Kung Fu Panda and Adventure Time games, which both receives high reviews, purchases APB (and others) for £1.5 million to set up predatory marketing scheme to sell ingame items for the exact same price as before, plus making ingame acquisition easier, plus removing "gambling for kids" (joker boxes) plus hosting Fallen Earth for free with no microtransactions, with the final plan of making maybe $100k a year from it if they're lucky.

 

Wow what a predatory scumbag name-flip company 0/10. I sure am glad I swallowed the red pill.

feel it necessary to list this as sarcasm because people actually believe this stuff is true
