APB will be the biggest eSports game of 2019, you just wait. I'm not even joking. Well, 2019 might be a bit early, but LO definitely has a plan. They will unfuck G1's mess, make it run well on consoles, add district phasing, other QOL improvements... I imagine that for 4.0 they'll give the graphics a facelift. Some new UI that doesn't lock the game up for half a second, a proper onboarding experience instead of the dumb tutorial we have now... Honestly, I think APB can really succeed. 8 years on, it still has the best customization engine in any video game, ever. Gunplay is good, driving is good, the game loop is good. APB simply offers something no other game has. It requires you to adapt to all sorts of crazy situations, and even though we've been running around the same 1x1km map, it doesn't get boring. I think, finally, after all these years, APB is in the right hands. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Killer Rabbit 71 Posted August 9, 2018 You guys have no vision. Just because APB doesn't have certain features right now, or because G1 couldn't be arsed to invest money into R&D and just milked JMB, doesn't mean LO will do the same. Maybe they won't do anything of the sort, who knows. But I highly doubt they bought this game without a plan on making it successful and get a return on their investment. You don't really think Matt was like, "yeah, I'll give G1 this 7 digit check, now I have 2000 players who will net me, best case scenario, $50,000 a month on a new $40 gun", do you? I think they'll do some amazing things. Or at the very least, try. Once they fix the huge glaring issues this game has, I don't doubt they will start pushing a new marketing campaign, do some re-branding, get rid of the "Reloaded" logos and what not... Just give them some time, man. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Just give them some time, man. I agree that LO will likely succeed, and I certainly HOPE they will. But RNG based eSports? not likely Honestly I'd be impressed if we just get back to the 6,000 or so average players that G1 had at peak. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
