Shotguns are currently 8 shots to kill (JG). And they do little to no damage on cars and everything rather.

Non-friends cannot see your location now.
  Yes. If you remove them, then you are automatically removed from their friends list as well. 

Thanks for the clarifications, this alone makes it possibly the best patch we've had in almost 3 years. Keep up the good work.

As someone who has had to deal with someone stalking me across multiple social outlet platforms, I thank you greatly for ensuring all the bases are covered with updating the friend list to modern standards.

Well, people were concerned these changes would make shotguns OP. Clearly all bases are covered.

Everything is looking great so far. Thanks for the consistent communication.

You know, now things actually are changing. I am kinda scared. We/I have been a survivor on APB now for years and the game is... Unique, but we not the game completely. In and out.
To think that this game, our kind of "baby" which we are watching over is getting changed... It's just unnatural. Like, as if gravity would be decreased by 80% in any other game. The whole thing goes upside down..

At the same time, I trust LO with everything I have and I cannot wait to see these changes... Cause I know they are for the better.

How about cancelling Marketplace TAX? It is 100% useless and profits nobody since it's not g1c. Its just frustrating to sell something and see the money dropping..

[Shini 251]

Currently 1 fbw shot can still get you HVR quick switched at <5m range.

That's done to prevent currency inflation. If the money isn't disappearing from game fast enough then it starts to inflate dramatically. If it wasn't there, weapons would eventually start selling for 10s of millions APB$, which ultimately discourages new players from earning the cash to buy them.

You can use the same accounts as the regular PC client for OTW.

It's beyond obvious that they're bugged.

[KondorPL 2]

Ah ok i haven't seen system message. It's kinda disappointing that i can't test my favourite gun

[Shini 251]

I mean, not to be entirely negative on the Shotgun and HVR testing being a flop.
The friend list change and the 145fps limit is pretty damn PogChamp.


Really

is the FPS limit being raised to 145 intentional?

Yes. It's a small fix for players with higher refresh rate monitors.

Yep. Looks like the weapon balance changes went a little wonky. We'll make some revisions and let everyone know when they are up.

Adding people to friends list crashes the game.

Be careful Scott before you know it people will have higher standards.
