Memes Posted June 21, 2018 Posted June 21, 2018 Everyday I get on its typically 4-10 people total on Jericho. Why is this? Any plans to help this?
vsb Posted June 21, 2018 Posted June 21, 2018 theres usually one day a week where the community decides its time to level wf contacts its so empty most of the time because its a frustratingly unbalanced map 1
Thelnformer Posted June 21, 2018 Posted June 21, 2018 I always check districts for 1 free slot whenever available (when it's full) and level the damn wf contacts whenever possible
Spheri Posted June 21, 2018 Posted June 21, 2018 (edited) That's because waterfront usually is a "defenders wins the round" map. Now that may sound common in Financial too, but Waterfront takes it to the next level where points can be seen the moment you respawn. That's not all either, usually the points you have to attack are horrible camp spots, and that with the HVR/Ntec meta going strong right now it's a pretty hellish map. Clearly not everyone's cup of tea, nor is it mine. Edited June 21, 2018 by Spherii 1
Regenance Posted June 21, 2018 Posted June 21, 2018 Waterfront is horribly mapped spawns as stated above can be seen from the points themselves, there are no CQC fights whatsoever you can't even have a proper NHVR game-play without OCA people coming behind you from a random spot. 1
Nysyth Posted June 21, 2018 Posted June 21, 2018 Performance tends to be shithouse on waterfront. Don't know about anyone else but i can go from a pretty smooth experience on financial or fightclub to constant packet loss & high pings as soon as i load up waterfront.
Keshi Posted June 21, 2018 Posted June 21, 2018 Community, why are the gold districts always empty? 'Because everyone wants to go to silver district to play against other golds' Why is waterfront always empty 'Because financial is better'
GhosT Posted June 21, 2018 Posted June 21, 2018 (edited) I prefer waterfront because it's way more appealing to look at and to drive in, also feels like people have more variety in their weapons there. For objectives.. yeah, a lot of them should be moved into cover so defenders wouldn't be able to defend most spots from everywhere. But since most people are max ranks, or are on alternative chars they don't care about, they go to the more balanced district, which is financial. Edited June 21, 2018 by GhosT

HK33E Posted June 21, 2018 Posted June 21, 2018 Waterfront FTW. Best map. Too bad ya'll hate it. I have no problem playing o WF. But currently I'm struggling to Up Aletta to Level 20. It's getting hard on my nerves.
Bornstellar Posted June 21, 2018 Posted June 21, 2018 Because its poorly optimized, unbalanced garbage.
LilyV3 Posted June 21, 2018 Posted June 21, 2018 I prefer waterfront too, more driving involved, generally a bit more beautiful. but some locations have their own issueswith beign too open and too snipereasy.

Havi Posted June 21, 2018 Posted June 21, 2018 Waterfront is actually my favorite map. I can't wait to see new maps in the future of APB: Reloaded with this new awesome team!
CookiePuss Posted June 21, 2018 Posted June 21, 2018 I like WF if only cuz it makes me switch from OCA.
Zealocke Posted June 21, 2018 Posted June 21, 2018 (edited) - no tier 6 contact there - more cpu intensive, less average fps - more camp spots from more distance make defense easier and attack a living hell. - current hvr/ntec meta - veterans/aimbotters have an edge on mid to long ranged fights. Pros - kewl highways (we need street races) - kewl graffiti spots - nice sea view Edited June 21, 2018 by Zealocke

Tempelton is at the same level of devil dog, birth and tiptoe (tier 5). Only current tier 6 is aletta cadagan and gumball, both on financial. Edited June 21, 2018 by Zealocke 1

Samuwai Posted June 21, 2018 Posted June 21, 2018 As far as veteran players are concerned, Financial is a much more balanced map than Waterfront is. Waterfront generally has a significant amount of bias mission points in the defender's favor, which is why a lot of folks don't care to play there if they don't have to.

We have 2 contacts yet to be Introduced (The Redhead alongside Darryl Kent on the Tigers char selection screen and The Bodygaurd of Michael Simeone)
