bamf Posted July 14, 2016 Report Share Posted July 14, 2016 As for APB: Ask Bricktop or Annox how much fun it was to have the whole APD after them. I remember those days that the admins (before I was even an admin) would make EVENTS out of things that APB will now just do randomly. Think of the APB feature as a challenge, and I think you guys can have a lot of fun with it. Sheriff Rick Grimes and Hanzo/Dirty Scrubz like this Link to comment

Not hard to leave your PC on and AFK for the timeframe an APB is out. yeah.. im not going to go afk. if i am planning to get off and i am an APB subject, im probably going to log off. Depending on how long the time frame is. I hear its like 20 minutes. On the other hand if im not about to log off, ill gladly fly around in an orca for 20 minutes. Link to comment

Look the APB thing sounds nice but this should be something that happens max twice during server up time and not something that should last for 20 min... and it should not be the biggest bounty, it prevents bigger bounties from making money, it be nice if it was say several bounties over 100k exists, take a random one of them, if no over 100k exist or only 1 or 2, then go from 70k+ and if not then simply 50k+ else not at all.

BrutaL Posted July 14, 2016 Report Share Posted July 14, 2016 why did it take lethal to disclose the time of the apb? there really should be more communication, i understand how hard coding the server and having 50 different people complaining about things left right and centre but some more communication clarifying things, giving feedback on the suggestions and feedback. even just a simple post saying thanks for the feedback would help too many people feel disheartened and distant from the developers Link to comment

Big Bird Posted July 14, 2016 Report Share Posted July 14, 2016 @bamf @Paratus what about if you survive the APB it gives you an option for a pardon at the end kind of like a governor pardon. You could have the option to accept or decline it if you want to keep it going. Link to comment
Paratus Posted July 14, 2016 Author Report Share Posted July 14, 2016 Lack of communication from the developers? I've got literally about 20 posts in the patch notes. I simply am not going to respond to doomsday stuff because it's unsubstantiated and very tiring. The sky isn't falling, in fact statistically we're getting healthier and healthier yet a vocal few see the worst in every single addition without even first trying it.
