The game seemed like it had potential but the tutorial/starter zone didn't have anyone to fight so i can't speak for the PVP yet. The actual gameplay seems pretty repetitive and lacking (ie: in order to mug someone, you have to first put on your brass knuckles, then punch them while they just stand there waiting for it.... ok lol) Stealing stuff (large stuff) is really tedious seeming (there could be a way to make it faster, i just don't know it.) Once I moved into a real zone the lag was incredible, I have an excellent connection and computer but the lag was literally unplayable. So, that being said, i don't have much experience with the game outside of the tutorial so take it for what it's worth. Game name is: Marzyn, NA EAST server EDIT: Forgot to add that I'm a bad guy :D Criminal | ||

Yeah the lag was horrid a couple of days ago, lost some easily winnable situations because of it (Sorry Taco!) I think the server restart they did cleared it for the most part, but it's not going to surprise me too much if issues continue, this game has it's share of polishing left before it's done. There also seems to be another issue going around where your rank goes down when you win sometimes, so a ton of players are back down in the bronze threat even though they may be badasses haha. Hope to see some of you newly transferring players around, my in-game name is Gwen incase you didn't go through every post on the thread. I'd be playing right now, but MLG is on hehe. Good hunting! | ||

I saw Dusty's' Jerico and the teamliquid.net on the side of it. Did not know you guys had a clan on APB. I play on Joker (East NA) as criminal under the name Ardline. Was a pleasant surprise finding out your guys run a clan. o_O I do not have a Jericho xd | ||

I can say this: 1.5.3 is going to be a big cheat patch to deal with the cheating, 1.5.4 is going to have the new contacts and additional areas in the waterfront and financial districts, and we may have a 1.5.5 -- we haven't determined that yet. Patch 1.6 is going to be clan warfare, and that's the patch we're going to launch with. Jon-Enee Merriex aka Neume aka the guy who knows everything apb related. Full interview can be found here: http://massively.joystiq.com/2011/08/29/pax-2011-on-the-re-starting-line-with-apb-reloaded/ Hackers are definatly the bane of this game no doubt about it. But I still have some faith that they'll get it right at some point. For the time being I've stopped renewing my premium and only ever log on to play on US servers - JOKER especially seems really decent still and compared to Patriot EU its more or less hack free and the few hackers I've come across have been very poor skillwise so can recommend that server even for people in the EU. I'm running with a steady 100ms which is perfectly fine with ocasional "rubber banding" (isnt that what they call it?) Secondly: clan warfare is still the mainreason I stick around - I can't wait for organised battles - setting up 4 v 4s on public servers is just so much hassle and almost always ends in some sort of QQ. Doesn't help that the APB community is one of the worst I've ever encountered. Guess thats what happens when MMO and FPS people clashes. Anyway I'm Calliopee on Patriot, Colby and Joker so hit me up if you want a game =) (mid to high gold but can make a new toon if needed) | ||

That said, paranoia is actually way worse than cheaters in APB right now, since the game has character progression but is HEAVILY skill based people will always gravitate towards cheat accusing if they get owned by some low rating(low gear) gold player. Almost every single time me and my friend plays on Obeya we get cheat accused because we're low rating and high gold using stock weapons with zero upgrades, which for alot of ignorant people is a red flag for a cheater. So my tip for new players, don't get hung up on upgrades or weapons. The game is heavily skill based. Aim, teamwork and knowing the map/gamesense is critical to your success, not what weapon/upgrade you happen to have. You can't buy yourself skill, so just practice more and watch youtube videos or twitch streams of good players to pick up some tips and tricks. http://forums.gamersfirst.com/topic/195703-dopefish-live-stream-online/ http://www.youtube.com/user/spudinske#p/a http://www.youtube.com/user/MDMAjatak#p/u/3/OW1x1ka5V0s Edit: The one thing i can advice you to look for if you're facing a cheater, especially an aimbot, is that if he's "snapping". This pretty much means that if you and your teammate show yourselves against the aimbotter and he INSTANTLY switches targets and starts shooting after killing the first guy. It looks really strange and akward so yeah, look for that. Wallhackers are alot harder to "prove" for players because the game is so heavily based on being able to pan your 3rd person camera around the enviroment, knowing the common camp sites and just in general knowing how certain missions/maps are designed. Also if you're having bad PC performance I recommed getting a good CPU, CPU is by far the most important component for this game. Obviously memory is big too, 4 at the absolute minimum. I recommend more though. | ||
