If weapons are balanced we wouldn't see all the tryhards using the same OP weapons. I agree with you. The game master's recommendation To study game mechanics is that the player should be able to use the bugs of the game. Quickswitch is a bug. Reducing the sight in a jump is a bug. Improving the accuracy of shooting when changing the display resolution is a bug. Rapid-fire shooting with a mouse wheel or a macro is a bug. A huge delay in the health interface for some types of weapons, such as PMG, is a bug. If a game master calls this the study of game mechanics, then he is an ordinary buguser!

If weapons are balanced we wouldn't see all the tryhards using the same OP weapons. Your last line shows that you are confusing correlation with causation. First of all, you don't have an independent measurement for the actual percentage of weapons used, nevermind by what group of players (whatever "tryhard" actually means. It sounds mostly subjective and i doubt anyone here can come up with an objective metric to measure what constitutes as "tryhard"). So, aside from the fact that you can't objectively measure the things you mentioned, even IF you observe a correlation, it does not always imply causation. Nerfing weapons has been done and tested several times in this game, as a result of such an assumption, yet it made little difference overall as highly-skilled players will find a weapon, method, playstyle that is superior. At BEST, this is an issue of whack-a-mole, where changing one variable just means the "tryhards" find another hole to jump out of and dominate. So unless you want to game to remain static and never add anything new, this is going to keep happening, whether you like it or not. This is as honest and friendly of a way i can avoid saying "mad coz bad". Just because you lost in a game doesn't mean it's rigged. There are many other variables to consider. An obvious one is total number of hours a player has in the game. While total numbers dont automatically imply high skill, they definitely can outperform players with significantly less hours. And do not underestimate the no-lifers in this game that have VASTLY more hours than the rest. Add actual skill onto that, and you got yourself several high-calibre players that everyone will hate since they'll loose against them most of the time. Every game has these types of players btw. The real issue of APB is that the average joe encounters these guys more than in other games, because at any given time, there are like 100 players online. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MACKxBOLAN 385 Posted April 17 I was sick and did not attend, can anyone tell me if there was any feedback on putting cop lights on the new mirage? was it recorded, is there a link to watch it? Also I think that removing factions is really bad idea, people have spent years developing their characters, cars, and clothing. Some mimicking paint and decals of particular law enforcement agencies down to minuet details. When new players come they see these personal designs and want them. Therefore spending money for the cloths and or vehicles. If you take that away, you're putting a big dent in what is known to be the best feature of the game; the personal designing of cloths, cars, and character look.

Todesklinge 141 Posted April 17 Concurssion Grenade should be removed out of the game. The grenade makes every anti vehicle weapon usless! Some other weapons need a hard damage reduction. We have many anti vehcile weapons but they are to weak in general use. For the Concurssion Grenade you dont lose a primary weapon slot and can kill every vehicle fast. I see so much players they can throw the Concurssion Grenade with 100% to high speed vehciles and players in far distance. The grenade mechanic is bad. We have grenade launchers no one use it (only OPGL is usefull and OP). The EOL Grenade Launcher Series is total useless... because you lose an primary weapon. Also the general weapon system need to be reworked, not the weapon itself. But if you are Using NTec + AC 50. Pistol + Concurssion Grenade = you have the best of the best for all situations, why using other weapons?! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

More like injecting their own insecurities about customized content, claiming it's LO's position, even though no one from LO cares enough to comment.

Pistol + Concurssion Grenade = you have the best of the best for all situations, why using other weapons?! Conc isnt that great tbh. A bunch of vehicles got buffed life, and the conc remained the same 1k damage. Making it worse against high tier vehicles than before. Add it the fact that -it's not easy to use, and takes a lot of practice to get right, and even then it's buggy as all hell. (I've thrown concs onto vehicles, and no visible/heard damage occured. It's really only useful to destroy car spawners once they've stopped moving at this point. The people who have great accuracy with concs are rare. Most have years of play practice... EOLs are not great, but they can be fun. The conc one is the best of the EOLs, but the others are eh. The worst part is they all suffer from the OPGL/grenade through floor glitch. NTec isn't the end all be all as much anymore, especially in cqc with the high bloom/accuracy. CQC weapons still perform better, but it still easily presents a problem from CQC-far midrange. STAR however, can do just the same if not better in cqc... The only difference is a ~.07ttk. FAR is arguably better with the same out of aim stats as the star but a .7ttk. While I can agree that AV weapons aren't as good at AP as the AP counterpats. They aren't the worst. NTEC +.45+conc- covers a wide range. .45 helps cover cqc heavily, while the NTEC coveres mid. The conc is just high damage for vehicles and people. I personally prefer NTEC + Fr0g/.45 + Frags Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
