APB - All Points Bulletin - Games

If you have friends that is/will playing/play, yes.

Honestly, the game has been stressing me out lately. Seems like everyone above level 20 on the crim side has NTEC-5s, the most vastly overpowered gun in the game, or they run OCAs, which, while also causing way more damage than a 9mm should, can be avoided by staying a greater distance away... The game has good ideas, but I'm not digging the dynamics and weapon balance just yet. Another annoying thing is, nobody ever comes to your backup. It'll be me versus 3 guys with NTEC-5s running around, Im hammering the backup call as hard as I can, and nobody comes...

[QUOTE=Dashiel;22992754] Yes or no to Ansi's new clothes?[/QUOTE] Not my taste, but the white felt more right. Got the key from game.co.uk, been playing for a few hours now and I can conclude one thing. PEOPLE are fucking morons, if you want me to help you dont get in a 2 seat car and drive away. Also in designing mode my char looks absolutely awesome, but when I get in-game again it looks all smooth with all the detail gone. I have everything on maximum, AA x8 included. Same goes for the logos, it looks pixelish. Edit: forgot to ask about something, when will the chaos district be available. I want to kill EVERYBODY.

Okay the NA server went down or something I can't connect. [editline]09:51PM[/editline] Oh just one district went down that's kinda silly. [editline]09:53PM[/editline] [QUOTE=Glent;22989064]Nope. You get the money for the stun, then for the arrest, and then also for the kill.[/QUOTE] Yes, but the money deduction is more than all of that combined. The tutorial says that you'll lose money for killing arrested players the first time you make an arrest, and you even get a red medal (which means you lose money) called "Police Brutality" when you do it.

If so, that's the problem. The 32-bit client can't use more than 2gb of RAM and it needs to in order to display the game at it's full graphical potential. If you want to lose the blurry effect upgrade to 64-bit like you should be anyway. Also, nobody knows when Chaos District is coming out, we aren't psychics.

Bah, I wanted to make a pixel for pixel remake of Sonic but the layer limit is killing me :saddowns:

So wait, do the display boards just pick random Clan logos to show?

No, you have to win leagues, and our clan Stunlock has won the daily arrest league two days in a row now. RegulatorsAPB exploit arrests (aka have crim friends), so they won weekly which was given out at day one for some reason.

Is there a trial for this game?

No.

Damn.. How awesome is this game? It's released right?

This game has a lot of potential, but from the beta it's bland. Maybe it will get better within the year.

aight. Not gonna spend 30 bucks on it then. Gonna wait for trial.

I always did it anyway, for kicks.

god damn it i spent 20 dollars on RTW points and I haven't got them

[QUOTE=Hairybastard;22999612]aight. Not gonna spend 30 bucks on it then. Gonna wait for trial.[/QUOTE] Probably a wise thing to do at this point.

Heh, I discovered some awesome bug that instantly turned in any items I looted from shop windows. I got like 2 levels of Blood Rose from it before I got killed and the bug stopped working :saddowns:

I started using a full LTL loadout, with stun grenades. The game's a lot more fun now, and it's way harder to get a 'kill'. APB was way too easy before with my AK. Plus I can hear the people I arrest rage over the mic while I do it, which is a great bonus.

Getting arrested is the most frustrating thing in the game though, although I get highly amused at the nerf shotguns they use. You just need to get them into an open area and keep moving really if you want to avoid being shot down.

You just need to get them into an open area and keep moving really if you want to avoid being shot down.[/QUOTE] The bean bag launcher takes longer to stun than an AK does to kill, so it's practically useless most of the time, and the stun gun is incredibly easy to avoid because it only has a 6m range. If I miss with the stun gun, I'm basically fucked because of the reload time. Plus, with arrests, you can be freed by a team mate, while a team mate can't get you out of being dead. Worst of all, most people killed with the bean bag launcher will cease being stunned by the time you get close enough to arrest them. I'd say they're a bit underpowered, but I wouldn't change them either. Again, I'm having a lot of fun with the challenge.

[QUOTE=1/4 Life;23000974]Worst of all, most people killed with the bean bag launcher will cease being stunned by the time you get close enough to arrest them.[/QUOTE] I hate having to empty an entire clip or two of CCG into a stunned person because I can't get to them to arrest them.

[QUOTE=Kalinium;23001181]I hate having to empty an entire clip or two of CCG into a stunned person because I can't get to them to arrest them.[/QUOTE] You're pretty much stuck with waiting for them to get up and using the tazer, or just mercy killing them.

[QUOTE=Dashiel;22988631]Enforcers are fucking OP, fuck you guys. Seriously, what the fuck am I supposed to do against a group of three people all using stun and arrest shit? Absolute bollocks, completely imbalanced.[/QUOTE] This. Dashiel, Defian and me only getting VIP and escape missions. We couldn't beat those radar abusing faggots, mortaring their frag nades to try to kill us.

[/QUOTE] Take a look at me. I use an N-TEC, at medium range against an OCA. They win. They keep using it as an assault rifle. And they win against the N-TEC, the most overpowered AR?
