Boards Archive] |
Welcome to the Vault Network
forum archive.
This is not a complete archive, time didn't allot us the
opportunity to properly backup the majority of the boards
deemed "expendable". Most boards on this list have at least
20-40 pages archived (non-logged in pages, 15 topics per
page).
Popular boards may have as many as 250 pages archived at 50
topics per page, while others deemed of historical
signifigance may be archived in their entirety.
We may not agree with how the board shutdown was managed, but
we've done what we could to preserve some of its history in
lieu of that.
Please enjoy the archive.

Rage Quit and Uninstalled after one week. Thank goodness it was 'Free to Play' or I'd be demanding a refund.

All Points Bulletin used to be a pay-to-play game but now it's APB:Reloaded which is free-to-play but if you want to spend money you can buy overpowered weapons and equipment that allow you to wtfpwn noobs like me without any effort.
you can play as either a criminal or an enforcer. criminals can level up through open-world crime or by engaging in missions. enforcers can oppose the criminals in the missions or try to catch them in the act of committing the open-world crimes.
very customizable characters and clothes and cars, with better cars and interesting outfits and better equipment available as you level up.
the chat system allows you to accuse everybody else of hacking and complain constantly about lag and blame the game for making you lose and laugh at noobs and insult people and brag about your own leet skillz and sell stuff. there is a market system that allows players to buy and sell customized clothes and cars and whatnot.
the thing that drew me to the game was the driving. Everybody has their own car or you can steal a variety of vehicles from the npc's and drive them around like maniacs and blow them up and kill pedestrians and even use the vehicles as weapons during combat. The constant, terrible lag makes them steer like sinking boats, though. it's fun to take your noob hatchback up stairs and down back alleys and through shopping malls, or steal a dumptruck and grief the other players by smashing their cars and stuff.
there's also an in-game music player so whenever you're in a car you can blast a variety of playlists or upload your own tunes. It even has an "off" button.
I dunno... maybe I'll give this game another try. It's got a lot of cool features. I suppose any time I get fed up with all of the hyperactive kids running around like maniacs I can just go to the social district and draw cartoon penises on t-shirts.

fun game, i played it when it was released the 1st time and again after it's re-release. Problem with this game is hackers, they are rampant in this game. They ruined it the 1st time around and are ruining it again.
That aside, the in game design options are excellent. One of my fav things is being able to make a short theme that is played to the person you killed and also to everyone in your party and the opposing team when the mission is over if you got mvp for the mission.
Def worth checking out for some mmo gta style gameplay. But not worth long term play imo unless they somehow stamp out the hackers.

I think in the past few months they did a huge crackdown on hackers and banned loads of accounts~ Not sure how good of a job they did but this was a issue I ran into when playing also~ What I didn't like reading when I got the email from APB in regards to hacking is that they're giving them a second chance. They're being told that if they uninstall the hack they will have his/her account unbanned... which is a tactic that never works out well for a company. Though at the same time they have to be desperate for subscriptions/store shoppers and face it... hackers have money to waste and are probably one of the biggest users when it comes to using the in game shops.

i'm still playing it... of course i'm doing it my way, avoiding pvp as much as possible, not taking on any missions and finding easy ways to harvest petty cash from npc's and slowly raise my standings. i love stealing a van and going around ramming into storefronts and then loading up the back of the van with big heavy boxes and driving them to a delivery spot... it's exactly the opposite of what i do for a living in the real world!

the thing is they are just losing their account when they get banned and since a new account is free and a new email address is free all you lose is the time you spent hacking... best day to play is patch day and a day or 2 after before their hacks get updated. doesn't take long though.

it is incredibly gay. and merry.
now if you'll excuse me, i think i'll log into social and pick out a nice formal outfit for one of my crims. i know the shoes should match the dress but what about gloves? should gloves match hair color or shoe color or the blouse color? if i'm wearing a blue dress with a white shirt, what color nylons should i wear? aw, heck with it, i'll just dye everything fluorescent periwinkle...
