All Points Bulletin: Reloaded V8 - when are they gonna nerf stun guns? - Games

Buy one get one free on Joker boxes. Doubt anyone cares, but might as well spread the word :v: [editline]10th January 2014[/editline] Lasts until the 12th.

So I've been trying to ram-raid on my criminal the past few days to little success. If I'm doing something blatantly wrong, please steer me in the right direction. I find empty servers, <5 population in gold/silver financial districts. I stay around Grayson Fell for the instant return on goods and I use my own packer van. I have yet to this point been able to acquire more than a net of $20,000 due to enforcers joining and before I'm able by checking the map and sprinting to the money laundry, they're already there camping the only money drop-off. Any tips? Thanks.

[QUOTE=RodgerWilco;43521489] Any tips? Thanks.[/QUOTE] I'd say ram raiding as it stands is just not viable

Yeah, and if I ever do, it's at like 1am or later, with a friend. And even then, we [I]constantly[/I] check the server population (type "/pop") for Enforcers. If there's more than one and we have ~20k, we wrap up. Usually my partner will get a bounty on before dropping, but if the risk is high we'll go without. I'll usually run slightly ahead to scout the laundry if it's on Financial, or we just come in from the highway if it's Waterfront.

Good to know. I'll definitely use /pop next time to be more aware. It's kind of strange there is only one money laundry. I understand catching me in the act but really, designing the ram-raid system where you can camp where you'll know I have to come, and when I'll have the most amount of money? Shame, was hoping for a trick to give us crims a fighting chance =P

Some days i can get two hit kills, some days i will only do half damage with 5 shots.

[QUOTE=bloser;43597462]So the game is still shit? Okay, good to know.[/QUOTE] aside from the recent DDoS attacks, I haven't been having huge problems with hitreg. Altough I am having issues with shots flat out not registering at all sometimes

[QUOTE=NitronikALT;43604220]aside from the recent DDoS attacks, I haven't been having huge problems with hitreg. Altough I am having issues with shots flat out not registering at all sometimes[/QUOTE] Why would someone want to DDoS this game? The servers are already shit enough.

[QUOTE=Folfy;43604545]Why would someone want to DDoS this game? The servers are already shit enough.[/QUOTE] Probably some idiot got caught cheating and started DDoSing servers out of rage. Especially if that was a closet cheater who spent money ingame and had R200+ toon.

You're fucking kidding me? EpicGoat is still playing APB? Damn, last time I played he had 30+ banned accounts. But he's actually a funny guy, except taking on G1 really hard makes him annoying eventually. Nonetheless, it was fun to play with him while he made a lot of people go nuts because of aimbot + SHAW. Shit, I even have a screen of me hanging out with him. [thumb]http://cloud-2.steampowered.com/ugc/540690546086170327/338A45786EA38BDA96866618CF492995A064E457/[/thumb] I also forgot how me and Jenz hanged out with Goat. And how everyone was like "JENZ WTF Y U PLAY WITH GOAT???" and all that "im gonna report you" yadda-yadda-yadda. Fuck, now I'm getting all nostalgic.

Honestly EpicGoat does a very good job of making G1 look bad by streaming himself getting banned, changing his HWID and rerolling to blatantly cheat again in a few minutes

DDoS attack again Joker NA East went to shit and Obeya EU1 promptly followed [editline]20th January 2014[/editline] [QUOTE=bloser;43606101]I know one is EpicGoat, I can't remember the other one off the top of my head.[/QUOTE] KellyQ ?

[QUOTE=NitronikALT;43606484]KellyQ ?[/QUOTE] If EpicGoat is still around, then I'm pretty sure KellyQ too. Although Kelly is just blatantly cheating and swearing and he's no fun at all. At least, that's what I remember. It's been a long time.

holy shit this game is still going is it still p2w/hacker/bugs central?

[QUOTE=Dermock;43606587]holy shit this game is still going is it still p2w/hacker/bugs central?[/QUOTE] never was p2w, bugs are mostly fixed, cheaters are an issue just like in other game atm there's people DDoSing the servers

[QUOTE=Altimor;43606354]Honestly EpicGoat does a very good job of making G1 look bad by streaming himself getting banned, changing his HWID and rerolling to blatantly cheat again in a few minutes[/QUOTE] Does he still doing streams? I'd love to see that.

[img]http://i.imgur.com/ks5Cq6d.jpg[/img] [url]http://apbdb.com/items/Weapon_SniperRifle_Pathfinder/[/url] The PR2 has HS1 and IR3 so it might actually be pretty good.

So they finally made a Steyr Scout skin for the Scout. That took surprisingly long.

Here's what I've dug out : I'll list the version with the best mods Pathfinder Long Range : HS1 + IR3 Pathfinder SD : Silencer + HS1 Pathfinder Preset : Tagger + HS1 PR1 mod + PR2 mod [editline]20th January 2014[/editline] [QUOTE=Mastahamma;43607281]So they finally made a Steyr Scout skin for the Scout.

If that other rifle was a skin for the STAR I'd actually consider getting it [editline]20th January 2014[/editline] also fuck did they really have to use that butt ugly Scout scope placement

[QUOTE=Mastahamma;43607395]If that other rifle was a skin for the STAR I'd actually consider getting it[/QUOTE] I've given up hope on the STAR, tbh. It is a good weapon, but the N-TEC outshines it in most aspects

[QUOTE=NitronikALT;43606740]bugs are mostly fixed, cheaters are an issue just like in other game[/QUOTE] bugs sounds nice, but its nice to hear that 50% of the population is still aimbotting, and the rest autoclicknig for semi autos [QUOTE=NitronikALT;43606740] atm there's people DDoSing the servers[/QUOTE] I am strangely OK with this. Also nice to hear racing servers still aren't out. after like, 2 years.

[QUOTE=Dermock;43608734]"Buy this car to skip the 180 hours of grinding for it, AND it has more slots than you can ever possibly get in f2p! You can do this for the osmaw, too!" [/QUOTE] Cars don't give you any inherit advantage, so they're not really p2w in any way. And the guns that don't exist for free aren't inherently better than the in-game ones either, they're mostly just more specialised.
