Is this all there is or am I missing something? I think you're dumbing it down a bit too much. There's not a lot of tactical gameplay involved if you're playing solo and just running around with a shotgun.. Try to join a group or play with someone you know, it's a lot more enjoyable then. | ||

Is this all there is or am I missing something? If you played this game for 14 hours and that is all you gathered from it, then i'm shocked. Like they said , team up with some people, meet and make friends for sure. | ||

How do you run over a sniper, and ultimately clear the area to capture the objective or keep doing that to guard it? Like the poster above says, you're kind of looking at it through a narrow scope. | ||

Memory leaks, Lag spikes, Framerate issues, imbalance, pointless missions, hackers, etc.. The idea is great, but until it's finally polished, expect frequent rage and wtf's. It's free, so it's worth a try. Sounds exactly like when I beta tested it ~2 years ago. :/ I'm redownloading it now for another try though. The game has so much potential. I really hope they'll pull it off this time. | ||

 ). it just seems very broken atm (yes I realize it's a beta but still it's the core element of the game).So far I haven't had trouble with snipers they are too easy to line of sight and the number of positions for a sniper seem very limited. (mostly played the bay area) However I like the VoIP feature they have, in fact the sound overall in the game is kind of insane. With a little bit better of a level design I'm sure it would be perfectly fine but almost every mission so far has been very close combat oriented. I'll give it another 24ish hours of game play, maybe it gets better later on. Nice nose dive there by the way | ||

Sure, close-quarter-combat is a very important part of the game because you have to walk to places and pick things up etc. but it's really all about learning positioning when you get a bit more experience. Using a sniper when you are on a defend mission in a wide area is much more beneficial, so always remember to switch weapons based on the mission and your opponents. And also, like others have pointed out, play with friends if you can. Being able to coordinate attacks and use "special tactics  " makes the game so much more enjoyable than just run around with randoms and see who can kill the most players. | ||

I'll give it another 24ish hours of game play, maybe it gets better later on. Nice nose dive there by the way I usually play as a sniper. There are a ton of "secret" areas where you can climb up to in order to get a better view with a sniper. Also what rank do you play on? I'm silver 8 at the moment, and I think it's a nice mix between opponents that play tactically, hackers, lamers and more casual players. I also don't really see the whole shotgun thing? I've only seen a couple of shotgun users, and they're extremely situational. I can usually kill them off with my sidearm or by cooking a grenade before entering a room. I think the level design is rather good, I've played both of the APB beta versions, and it gives me a clear advantage to actually know where stuff is. There's a lot of little tricks and such that will easily give you the advantage over any opponent purely by knowing the map/surroundings. I hope that you find the game more enjoyable as you play! I think it's a good game that's received a lot of loving from GamersFirst, and I hope it doesn't go down the drain like it did with RTW. | ||

APB:R's success is going to be on how successfully they can rip cash out of people's wallets. The $60 gun prices at the moment are just frigging ridiculous - a full price of a game just for ONE permanent weapon in this one, yet I see like 1 out of 4 people using the things. | ||

On that tangent, before people start the "Pay2win" - the weapons leased are in no way superior to anything you can obtain in-game altho it requires some effort to get the equivalent/better versions. Yes, I know the OCA "Whisper" is silenced but really, with the low effective range on that wep it doesnt matter wether or not you can hear where its coming from and the shooter will still pop up on your minimap so no excuse there. Sorry if I come across abit angry, but I'm sick of listening to new players whining in /district about balance when really all they want is another CoD/Halo/CS clone. This game is all about teamwork and adjusting to the situation at hand. If anything this game in terms of weapons - perhaps with the exception of the Ntec - are all extremely well-balanced. Ther's a HARD-counter to any weapon you just gotta be smart when either attacking or defending. Ie. someone camping with HVR? Flank him with any close/mid range wep. Someone holed up with an OCA/shotgun? Force him out of position with nades and outrange him with your ntec/obeya/obir. Remember you've got a field supplier for free that'll allow you to change your setup in litterally seconds during missions. I generally swap loadout 2-3 times on average missions. And not only weapons - thers a massive difference between clotting agent 2 and 3 for instance. Right rant over - oh and to OP i play enforcer on Patriot EU (its an english server - afaik ther arnt any european specific language servers yet - if that makes sense? =) | ||

It's a shame considering how much promise this game holds. It's not the hackers, griefers, nor trolls who annoy me, but an overwhelming sense of.... lack of communication. I feel like the professor who is teaching a course and no one is responding to his or her questions. | ||

This is such a great "dumb fun" game. I loved it back when it was in beta before the first release last year. | ||
