Yet Steam only has 6k which is not even close to your childhood memories. It took me less than 5 minutes to provide some actual numbers, which furthers the conversation. Yet you divert to personal attacks instead. Perhaps take your last sentence to heart. I didnt play this game via steam until 2013 or even 2014 and at that time population was at a steady decline. Saw no reason to play it via steam when I could play without it. Edited May 1 by Weaboos Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I make fun of that silly title in the first sentence of the thread. I was asking about the marketing strategy to get new players, which even for a small title like APB is a valid question. Considering LO is actually updating the title. And I had this question answered properly. This whole thing about APB being a "big title" only started because these goofballs came and derailed the thread with made up player numbers. Once again, please read before responding. Nice try. You didn't even do the most basic of research. "Publish your news properly" in your opening post couldn't be any further from the truth. All you had to do was look at the latest AMA as well as the roadmap. Those contain LO's "strategies". Yes, they are underwhelming and insufficient but that is what you are looking for. Again, your thread is pointless so you don't get to play the "please read" card. You didn't read yourself. Edited May 2 by LilyRain Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I remember when I joined this game we had EU with populations of 20k on each two servers, two instances of NA for both East and West, equally filled to brim, Asian server called Han and Innova which was seperate one but russians at least had their place too. And over years population dropped, servers had to be merged one by one by one so we arrive here... with roughly 500 players at best hours. It's safe to say all the potential was there and was absolutely wasted. And popularity was absolutely ruined. You go to YouTube - type "APB: Reloaded" and the top results are about "Why it's 100 million $ disaster". So safe to say, that ship already sailed. We just facing inevitable. LO would need to do major... And I mean really major changes which would astound players. (Facepunch did that miracle with Rust but I doubt LO is capable to replicate what Facepunch did) Either that or release new APB in background (of course hyping it up first). Problem is franchise was sold to company called "Unit Game" which appears to just sit on title and present it like some trophy. So this game lost it future and really I blame developers (also game population didn't do any favours with cheating in rampant amounts for "people who love this game" and there's also people who treat newbies like "unnecessary evil" and decide to go full ham on them...) well. this game is 15 years old. 500 players on peak ? not even that bad Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
