BrandonBranderson 672 Posted July 31, 2018 (edited) Welp, tested the Showstopper and I love the idea of it, but along with the other shotguns it's a lil bugged right now. 32 direct hits will make an unmodded Vegas smoke. You guys using the right damage scale? Seems like shotguns are set up based on players having 100 health instead of 1000. About the Showstopper though, the picture had 3 variants of it, but I only received two in the mail. The plain one, and the one with the Showstopper Choke mod. Is there gonna be another version available at some point? All in all, despite the few little hiccups you guys had so far I'm loving the progress! Up until a few months ago when you took over I honestly never thought this game was going to change again before closing its doors. G1 was showing all the signs that they were gonna shut down. Then when I saw a pinned post titled "Open Letter to the APB:Reloaded Community" by a red name my heart sank for a second until I actually read it.

Yep. that so unfair, now all people with Overpowered PC get better and better. damn LO buy me a gaming pc please. You are so funny no PC is overpowered. It has what the owner needs. I need a machine with two GPU's one beefy GPU (GPU 0) to display my OpenGL (and dx12) data, the other to drive my 2nd monitor, but more to work with nVENC so I dont get unneeded cpu loads for gfx stuff which I want offloaded from GPU-0. It results in a very smooth gfx experience. GPU-1 can be quite weak because of its assigned task as long as it has nVENC of course (a GT630 does it beautifully already, ATM is a Ti 750) Im also building a machine with 128GB of ram, because I need 2 virtualize multiple workstations for work. Most end users get by well with just 16GB. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jarko 43 Posted July 31, 2018 (edited) @MattScott Will there be a notification when something is being removed? A 3D display that is larger then the original one to the right of the trade box would be nice for vehicles and clothes. * You could decide to uncheck this option in Gameplay if you don't feel like it would be a necessity for you.

killerskull 111 Posted July 31, 2018 Who wants to trade with me??!?!?!?!?!?!?!?! Will there be a trading fee? What is there to trade? I cant think of anything. Clan stuff makes sense. Besides that, I dunno. Could this means rather than wasting 15% tax on market for a $2 mil legendary, I can just msg that player to buy his at $2 and save on tax? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Its just frustrating to sell something and see the money dropping.. 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. I wouldnt care at all tbh. I just hate losing money for nowhere. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

StunStick 140 Posted July 31, 2018 As for the trade interface, is there any chance we can get multiplier shortcuts? For example: "100k" -> 100,000 And "1m" -> 1,000,000 I apologise in advance if this is already a feature, I haven't logged onto the OTW yet. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

To me it just looks like a beefy snub. Even if you don't like how it looks, at least it's functionally different than any other secondary. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Darkzero3802 611 Posted July 31, 2018 Wooo progress. Its good to see things moving along but I gota ask, are there any plans for an event @MattScott? There hasnt been one since 2016 and alittle variety wouldnt hurt. Also will there be a matchmaking and ranking system redo in the near future? These are 2 hot button items that would really improve the quality of life for the community once properly fixed. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

These are 2 hot button items that would really improve the quality of life for the community once properly fixed. They recently organized an event where the main goal was to kill the real MattScott (on a district server with presumably fake MattScotts running around) to get some rewards, but yeah it was probably difficult to take part in it since the server they appeared on was most likely full in no time, one would've had to already be on it before it started filling up most likely... Longer events where everyone on all district servers could take part in would be hella neat indeed Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Androvald 145 Posted July 31, 2018 8 hours ago, Spy said: @MattScott The trade system looks very promising, I only have one thing to ask: Can you please cincider adding a tickbox (yes/no) in the main options menu, stating that you're putting yourself available to trading. I can only asume that not everybody is that excited to decline trades all the time simply because they're not interested in trading in general. You can prevent getting friend / trade invitations by setting your state to do not disturb (/dnd). 3 hours ago, jarko said: @MattScott Will there be a notification when something is being removed?

The notifications seems like a good idea, maybe just a changed marker until you select the item. At the very least, every time the other player makes a change your accept button will gray out for a second to prevent you from accidentally accepting a trade. Adding another 3D preview window into the UI is a bit tricky, especially in the location you're suggesting, so likely not in the first revision of the trade system. You can definitely open the preview window by using the button in the item details. 2 hours ago, killerskull said: Who wants to trade with me??!?!?!?!?!?!?!?! Will there be a trading fee?

Though the items do need to be unused or refurbished to be traded. You can trade all the stuff you can normally trade.

nndrei 129 Posted July 31, 2018 19 hours ago, MattScott said: BTW - The Showstopper stats are not final. We'll fix that in the next two days with a patch. Yes. When you invite a friend, they now have to accept the request before they are added. We also now hide your exact location from friends till the entire process is complete. Edited for clarity. You can add a small description next to each name, in case you dont remember the name of your "friend" Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BrandonBranderson 672 Posted July 31, 2018 @MattScott Just curious, has there been progress in finding the stuff you need for implementing the old login screen? I know the song was written for the game, so there shouldn't be any copyright junk to deal with. Certainly not top priority right now, but you got me excited dammit lol. And the game takes forever to launch... Actually I think I'd rather not know when exactly it's going to happen. This would be a very pleasant surprise to see upon starting up the game.
