HK33E 40 Posted May 30, 2018 10 hours ago, LilyV3 said: Hardly anyone acts neutral in this game, especially those in the top skills, most top skilled gamers are evry competitive and have their very own agendas. Can someone close this topic? The truth has been spoken... Even if LO "Hires" the skilled players for a tester position, they'll give favorable feedback regarding only their interests about weapons an maybe vehicles. We need neutral players. 4 minutes ago, Lixil said: Thank you for your suggestion, however, I will be accepting players as GMs. They do have to go through an interview and stuff like that. My current GMs are players and they are doing an amazing job. And, where do I apply to become a GM? :v I'm quite interested in the position tho. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It would be a shame if we would start seeing GMs taking sides and stuff like that since I'm certain that you will face many candidates who will lie during the interview just to get the job. This game was always about ego boosting to many people after all. True. Ego-driven players are cancerous. Just now, Zoehh said: There's an entire clan for that: [Ego Boost Gaming] Lol, maybe they're just trolling. Well, while Ford have EcoBoost... APB have EgoBoost (Sorry, it was necessary). But yeah, APB have a majority of players that are ego-driven and we're aware of this. The fun part is. They're easy targets to someone with intentions to shatter their ego. :v Just now, Vnight said: Let them do their job, its not like they need the community advices in the first place, most successful games have hired advisors, which means in order to be successful, a company requires lots of qualified members each with their specific tasks including advisors and game testers... definitively not meant for a bunch of community addicted monkeys... that's fer sure.

Nymphi-DoubleDee 37 Posted May 30, 2018 I'd love to be a GM, as I spent most of my time in action districts. Though, I think one thing that was under utilized was the mentor program. I'd rather be in that then a GM. Half the fun of playing was helping out new players. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Delete884943468320878423 172 Posted May 30, 2018 Ok... so i now know that forums are still under development, cuz my specific reply to multiple replied threads, ain't working. Yes you are right, community observations are very important as well indeed, but that's mostly for the qualified professional to decide, i mean imagine them never having to hire ppl that know better and just replace it with this small community for example, i know we love the game and all, but in order to please future members, it will require futuristic adaptation, not just current mass mindset from a community that's old as almost a decade, and which haven't progressed much with the time standards. Its hard to foresee things, but none the less its the most relevant for a game to survive in the future. We all know how fast tech advances nowadays. There could be higher companies popping up... better versions of the same concept, big companies don't have problems with developing new concepts that were before attempted at, but unsuccessfully. I love this game too, but we need to give them a break, cuz all i seen lately from the community, its way too much tension. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

LAPDAlonso 41 Posted May 30, 2018 (edited) Wait a second, am i reading this correctly. Did "Lixil", really just saying the company is looking into allowing "players" of the APB reloaded community to be come Game Masters? Is this a late aprils fools joke. As a GM myself and CM for other gaming companies, unless you are hired and employed with a company , meaning on their pay roll and work at their building/offices, in no way shape or form should a company allow any player to become a GM. You guys are just setting yourself up for trouble. Only allow those who are employees to be GM's. There was enough trouble here in the past where you gave players forum duties and that whole San Paro team was the worse, most of the players on that team were cheating. Lixil please tell me you're joking? Also abuse by GM's? many players were reporting some of the GM's in the past for GM abuse, which was also a joke. G1Zieu for example, i think they got him fired. There is no such thing as GM abuse, i can't people are falling for this nonsense hahaha. Edited May 30, 2018 by LAPDAlonso Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yes I hate having volunteers, this community is filled with some special cases, and I'd rather them not be near our information. I don't really care though. It's also very annoying that whoever suckles to gm the most gets the most privledges, wtf, just make it rotate through people. The spcm crowd bred an elitist attitude which is why most players don't like them, some would also use their exploit knowledge on missions as well. There were all very nice people but yea, I can't deny what happened. Edited May 30, 2018 by PoopDragon Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Whilst they do show as 'Game Masters' (<GM>), they wouldn't represent what is normally defined as a 'Game Master'. At least this is what I'm getting from the posts.

MonteJr 4 Posted May 30, 2018 A good example of too much user feedback was "The Culling", but that said, many of us are hyped because there's just so much that can be done (maps, modes, lore, etc) but there's mpre that NEEDS to be done (infrastructure, anticheat, optimization, gun balance, etc) It was sad to see how SPCT feedback was ignored after some time, but I'm looking forward to being able to help again in some manner.

Lixil 3524 Posted May 30, 2018 Okay, I think this is getting out of hand. I'm allowing players to apply to be GMs. This will be announced sometime this week. Thank you very much for all of the suggestions. If you have any more suggestions you can reach me out through the DMs! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
