Wasabi987 20 Posted September 27, 2018 (edited) [20 October] This suggestion has been remade to suit everyone. I hope that everyone will like it now. I changed the race system a little and wrote it in points to make it easier to read (It will be useful because of my poor English) I also added many more prizes than before and redesigned Hot Rods and special modifications to them to be as balanced as possible with other vehicles. {21 October} I tried to improve the Hot Rod stats and special modifications to make them as balanced as possible. Comparing Patriot Vegas to Dolton Fresno, you can deduce that 50 Max Health of the vehicle is 0.5 m / s, with the help of this information I was able to adjust the special modifications accordingly so that by accident they were not too OP. In my opinion, car racing should be added to APB as a small escape from shooting and increasing diversity. Car racing: 1. A new contact should be added, the rewards of which will apply to the twentieth century, because there are people who like this age like me and APB could provide this and with whom we will earn XP for participation in races. There should be only one race contact that will be on Financial and Waterfront. Same racing contact for Criminals and Enforcer. 2. The race can be started after approaching the starting line and clicking (example - F) then the mission will automatically switch on if the second player joins the finish line, it can not be canceled anymore and the 30 sec countdown will be activated, two more players can join. When the players are already moving from the START place, you will have to wait 10 sec to set up at the Start place so that there is no crowds. (MAX 4 players for one race) 3. I chose a place where there should be a racing contact and a place START, which should be on the sidelines near the contact, so as not to disturb the players who are currently carrying out the mission. 4. The finish line should be in a random place. Financial in the distance from Start about 900-1100 meters, and at Waterfront 1050-1250 because there are fewer corners on the Waterfront 5. When 1 player reaches the finish place, the 30 seconds countdown is made, while other players have to get to the finish line to get rewards.

The weight in this game is pretty important, but there is no information on the APB DB page about it. The weight is responsible for acceleration and grip, thanks to which the car is harder to push another car. From the information provided by a person familiar with motorization "BrandonBranderson" we know that the weight "Patriot Vegas" is about 1.540 kg on this weight in the statistics I gave weight of designed by me Hot Rods. Pickup Hot Rod Statistics: Vehicle: Max Health: 1150 Max Speed: 23 m/s Max Reverse Speed: 12 m/s Max Repair Time: 20 sec Drive type: RWD Spawn Cost: $100 Cargo Capacity: 5 Seats: 2 Ramming Multiplier: 2.5 Collision Multiplier: 0,8 Weight: 1240 kg Explosion: Max Health Damage: 1,400 Max Stamina Damage: 600 Max Hard Damage: 680 Max Damage Range: 450 cm Range: 750 cm Chevy Coupe Hot Rod Statistics: Vehicle: Max Health: 1250 Max Speed: 22 m/s Max Reverse Speed: 12 m/s Max Repair Time: 20 sec Drive type: RWD Spawn Cost: $100 Cargo Capacity: 5 Seats: 2 Ramming Multiplier: 2.5 Collision Multiplier: 0,8 Weight: 1340 kg Explosion: Max Health Damage: 1,400 Max Stamina Damage: 600 Max Hard Damage: 680 Max Damage Range: 450 cm Range: 750 cm All version of hot rod (slots1,slots2,slots3) will have unlock fourth upgrade slot for special modification only for hot rod.

Thank for read this to the end. Edited October 21, 2018 by Wasabi987 Edit: 21 October 7 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You can earn XP for him only by takin a part at races. The races will take place at old districts such as "Waterfront" and "Financial". When you declarate to "Targo" you have to go on start line, then press "K" and you must wait for another player, when player join to race you must wait 30 sec ,at this time can join 2 another players. You can't abandon mission by "Abandon mission" command. [image] [image] would races always be the same? i think that would get stale pretty fast - i would just make the start point and end point random like mission objectives, perhaps with the added rule that they have to be at least 500m-600m away from each other races should be able to be started from anywhere on the map, for added variety would races allow participants to hit each others cars? frankly i dont think racing is a valid addition at all to apb at this point since theres really only 2 cars that would be used (3, if your hotrod is added) everyone's vehicles are also the same because theres no "tuning" system, and the maps themselves werent made to challenge driver skill through racing like a game built around racing from the ground up, so most races would come down to who gets lucky/unlucky with traffic or whoever rams everyone else off the road first additionally vehicle handling in general is fairly lacking, with some vehicles performing with more realistic weight physics and some with less that said, i do like the idea of apb having something for everyone so ive tried to treat this suggestion objectively 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

This mods are available i 4th slot at hot rod, they can be black for example. I don't know why this mods can broke combo witht other mods. 2. AWD is 4x4 acceleration, I wrote RWD it is acceleration for back wheels. Hot Rod is worst then Vegas 4x4 but when u add special mod at 4th slot it become same as Vegas, u can use ONLY ONE mod at the same time. 3. New model need a lot of work. finally they add new engine, better graphic, 5 emoticons and better chat font and thats it. Pickup Hot Rod is expensive because it will be have special mods at 4th slot thanks to which u can adjust your car to yours preferences, if u need fast car u can pick an "acceleration" mod but if u wont carry more u can take an "capacity" mod. To chnge these mod u have to go to car spawn and pay $250 so that changing is not widespread. 4. Is that the contact is for races does not mean it cant have enather rewards. I want to add wooden wepon skins becouse I hate these colorfull wepons which are currently at the game. I realy want skins for hot rod but it needs much more work 5. I wasn't check "Arams Marketplace Gear" if there are skins like that they sholudn't be an reward. 6. I want that new contact add items fromfrom old years, therefore "Brooklyn Circus 8 Panel Hat" and "Pickup Hot Rod" are rewards. 7. I delete " racer uniform" and in your opinion "Brooklin Circus 8 Panel Hat" is a bed idea. I realy want to add more rewards such as "Brooklin Circus 8 Panel Hat" but I have no idea is that make any sens 8. Exactly 113 first places i 1 4th place,I don't think to someone get first place 113 times in a row I did not want to give great demands that it would be fun and not torment. 9. You have right but in my opinion should be at shoulder to do not block road when until waiting for another players. until races u can hit at the npc cars only. this has already been suggested here {LINK -} Only 2 cars? exacly 8 Bishada Rapier, Charge Cisco, Growl, Patriot V20 Jericho, Patriot Vegas, Joker Vegas 4x4, and if other sugestion from the forum will be added it's still Pickup Hot Rod, MX-5 MIATA {LINK - } You wrote that all cars in the game are the samebecouse there is no tunning options. there is no car that is in point of fact the same. by the way tuninng, I want to add this option for "Pickup Hot Rod" as 4th mod slot. You wrote that driving in APB is week, it does not agree with what you wrote here {MAKE APB GREAT.....FOR THE FIRST TIME: A LIST by Triksterism}. I konw that driving in APB is banality especially because the fastest car in game cant ride mre then 100km/h, but I cant do anything , I care about it that u can do somthing else than shooting in APB. It's a bit hard for me to treat your statement objectively but I will try. It be great if the game also came: -Speedometer( it can be hard to add becouse cars cang go faster than 60mils/h) -a little bit more NPC cars ( it make races harder + u can avoid bullet when u respawn at the middle of road untis shootout -Traffic lights should bo much solid (they are not a common obstacle, they should be more difficult to destroy) Regarding about reawrds available at new contact, I will be happy to add them if nobody has anything to 1920-1950 years.

In the current I wrote that the races are to take place in the old waterfront and financial districts. This is at the very beginning. You need to read more carefully.

BrandonBranderson 672 Posted October 15, 2018 (edited) I like the idea a lot, but maybe we could also have some kit parts that can kinda convert it into a coupe as well? The old 1937 Chevy Coupes actually had a pretty long trunk, so I don't think it would be too much of a stretch to make it fit within the truck bed's hitbox since the trucks also had some fairly short beds. This would have to be a full body kit to make it look right though. It'd probably have to be the cabin and trunk combined as one part, then the fenders, hood, bumpers, and grille/headlights as separate parts. I really like the idea though, was always a fan of hot rods and just classics in general. Edited October 15, 2018 by BrandonBranderson 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

When it comes to "Chevy Coupe Hot Rod" it would be good if it was a separate car and not a skin for "Pickup Hot Rod" it would be an additional award for racing contact.

Because the main purpose of Hot Rod is speed. 2. Special Modification "Cover" gave 200 Max. Health by which "Pickup Hot Rod" had exactly the same stats as "Patriot Vegas", and "Chevy Coupe Hot Rod" had similar statistics to "Dolton Fresno" only that it was a bit faster, but it had less cargo capacity. 3. "Pickup Hot Rod" with modification "Cover" had the same statistic as "Chevy Coupe Hot Rod" with the modification "Low Acceleration & Cove" by what choice when buying one of these Hot Rods would be based primarily on the appearance of these two vehicles. Therefore, the modification of "Cover" is bad and that's why I removed it from the suggestion. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
