APB needs dual-wielded weapons. Where are my dual uzis. :c00lbert:
[QUOTE=Dashiel;23371378]You haven't even played the game, how do you know this is the case? I've spent over 80 hours in Action Districts not including KTTC and I have[B] NEVER[/B] seen anyone do this.[/QUOTE] It's actually a well known and practiced criminal strategy to call for backups and do ramraids/cars instead, because they get the bonuses for org standing and they don't get APBed, otop of the chance for them to get extra if there team wins. You actually make a lot more money and standing if instead of actually partaking in the mission you just respond to backup and do this shit.

[QUOTE=Dutch;23367274]How do you even get that much I don't even[/QUOTE] Idling for Fashionista and Tuner used to get you 50k for maxing each. Make a character, idle it overnight for Fashionista, earn 50k, do the same for Tuner the next night, get another 50k. Mail the money to main character, delete character and repeat. They got rid of the money awards for the Fashionista and Tuner skills though.

[QUOTE=Dutch;23369535]I'm so very close to leaving the Facepunch clan and just joining some criminal clan. The inactivity is ridiculous.

Ok, I bought the game and I'm downloading it right now. I barely managed to play the beta on my old computer with 800x600 and everything on low. But now I have a new computer, specs are here: AMD Phenom X6 1090T 2x Ati 5870 2Gb 8GB RAM Windows Vista 7 64-bit What do you think, can I run it on high? And what is the easiest way to get Dolton Broadwing as an enforcer? I hate all other enforcer cars, but I love Broadwing because it looks like a Crown Vic :3

I have slighly powerless computer than you and i can run it on maximum too with 60 fps.
[QUOTE=Combineguy;23376503]gangpunch isnt active because it's not fun the game is so unbalanced it's not even funny, all there is to do is turn in cars because you just get raped by OCAs in missions[/QUOTE] Not really. You just have to know how to take them on. Have an N-Tec and stay at a distance and control your fire and you'll take them out pretty quickly.
Dutch and I were rolling over an OCA/CCG team. He had the "Hilltop" and I was using the "Spider." Not a bad gun if you have someone else with you.
Dutch don't you dare quit on me before I get back or else I will break your spine. [editline]02:23PM[/editline] [QUOTE=Glent;23369908]What are you talking about it's basically the exact same as beta except somewhat more balanced.[/QUOTE] On paper, it's more balanced yeah. Ridiculous guns such as the NL9 have been tweaked somewhat. But in practice it's not since everyone who had the game since pre-release is easily level 200-300. These people are beginning to get access to missle launchers and the other really high requirement weapons (such as the hangman), which weren't really touched on in the beta.
You mean the undertaker, not the hangman, right? I've alreay got the undertaker through contacts in less than 30 hours of gameplay time, it's not so hard to get.

And yes, I know the OCA isn't very good at long range, but honestly, when are you doing a mission that doesn't take place in a back alley?
NL9 is a bitch. Saw it in action, it's insanely accurate, has great range, good rate of fire, 2 shots people. I think the range and accuracy need to get toned down a bit. @Dutch I remember I had a mission once when I was playing on the 26th where it was sniper heavy. It was like on the docks somewhere and it was a long distance based fight. Was pretty cool.

And Dutch, the Undertaker isn't necessarily overpowered - a STAR can beat it medium range, an autoshotgun close range, unless they hit every shot which is hard to do with that gun.
I've been hearing about how awesome the spider is.
I've been beaten by OCAs while using the N-FAS tons of times.

JG-840 is by far superior in every aspect. [editline]06:47PM[/editline] And once again you are talking with purely statistics. Unless you have a gun that is upgraded in a similar fashion to the Undertaker, it's going to kill you.
I'm a sniper at the moment, people always whine cause i headshot them. :P
No such thing as headshots O_O Everyone is a big hitbox.
If people are whining about headshots then they're doing something severely wrong.
nikoPSK can you tell the people in Stunlock to stop fucking exploiting to win? Seriously, I'm getting sick of getting paired up with them during hacking missions and they destroy the ATMs and antennas so they automatically win.
Hey, I just bought the game and I'm leaving it to download overnight, anyone got tips for a beginner starting a new character?
[QUOTE=Barnhouse;23394793]Hey, I just bought the game and I'm leaving it to download overnight, anyone got tips for a beginner starting a new character?[/QUOTE] Always play in a group of friends. It'll make the experience much more enjoyable.
Wheely Bishadas are so cool
I've had it with this piece of shit game. It wasn't worth any of the money I paid for it, and I'm glad I just exploited the game's shitty economy to get a month free. [i]Every single match[/i] I get nowadays is against people who either exploit the Enforcer's fucking [i]landslide[/i] advantage (LTL), or when I'm actually about to win an escape mission, some moron (always an Enforcer) rolls up in a garbage truck and rams my Bishada into a wall, blowing it up IMMEDIATELY. This game's community is the equivalent of Call of Duty or Halo, as in almost everyone is a wannabe /b/tard that's only response to ANYTHING is "umad??". I've yet to have an intelligent conversation with any Enforcer. Ever. The only way I can see this game getting any better is if they completely remove the preset weapons, along with health upgrades, then fix LTL and matchmaking, then finally pretty much remove the entirety of the Fag/troll forcers. I'm done with APshit, at least until this "fix all" patch.
I love how bullshit this game can get. Dutch & I got put up against the SAME TWO PEOPLE three matches in a fucking row. We lost twice, and ragequitted on the third. One was using the SHAW-Lion, the other was using a JG-840 and TG-8 combo. You might say "well that seems pretty fair" but once the SHAW opens up on you and the person with the TG-8 shoots you, you're good as raped. LTL's are making me quite annoyed, lately. I might completely stop playing it and give my RTW points away after my time is up. I dunno. I guess we'll see what the patch brings. EDIT: Ninja'd.
[QUOTE=Dutch;23398885] some moron (always an Enforcer) rolls up in a garbage truck and rams my Bishada into a wall, blowing it up IMMEDIATELY.[/QUOTE] Isn't our job to stop you? I mean, that is the purpose of the police force. If it bothers you so much get a car that isn't so frail. Also, if you think LTL is so OP go and get a fucking stamina upgrade to negate the effects. If you fall to an LTL WITH a Stamina upgrade then you're just bad at the game.
[QUOTE=Dashiel;23399218]Isn't our job to stop you? I mean, that is the purpose of the police force. If it bothers you so much get a car that isn't so frail.[/QUOTE] Yes, you are supposed to stop me. But only when you're [i]dispatched[/i] against me. Hell, by that logic, I guess you wouldn't mind it if I drove around in a garbage truck, chased you wherever you went, and rammed you whenever I got the chance? After all, it's my job to stop you. Also, no matter what car you have, if a garbage truck pins you to a wall, you're dead.
I love trucks.
