Full Steam Ahead!: APB Reloaded's Unreal Engine Upgrade

Apb has real bad latency and fps issues but regarding being kicked they have sorted that out completely (only be kicked if you have a negative score, can request for captain etc.) and regarding the hackers the fair fight system has been banning alot , i mean alot of hackers lately so don't comment if you haven't played for years and don't know the real status of the game. They are trying to make a comeback despite how futile people think it is.

LoLs, the game is a blast so open to whatever you want, BUT.....saddly the down sides are far greater, poor managment, hackers, armas prices are F'in retarded, all new content is rehashed old content, GM's? don't say anything bad about them...lol that how you get banned and finally 1500 latency...yup thats right in Dec. i had 1500 latency, sorry but no matter how good a game is there is other stuff out there

Meh, another attempt to bring dead game back to sun light? No thanks. APB is already dead, no matter what.
Upradging their engine won't help, since APB has already bad reputation, thanks to all these hackers. bugs, FPS problems, unbalanced matchmaking and overpriced P2W items (jokerbox etc.)
They did not care about this game before and now they care? Nah, looks like some people are still so dumb that they don't understand that you can't change already completely rotten game.
R.I.P APB, it would be better if they will shut this down.

The game is great but the matchmaking needs fixing and the fps problem well after the new engine the game will be proper optimized and then they will work on the matchmaking cause now it sucks big unicorn balls.

Till they get a decent way to stop all the stupid auto-aim wallhack crap and fix the damn thing's performance issues, the game can stay in its shallow grave for all I care.

"Racing Season starts soon"

I've played this game for a year and a half and quit because of the lack of banning cheaters, free to play players are treated like shit. Also the community that plays APB is terrible one of the worst communities out there.


A few months ago I was told it changed so I decided to make a new account and start over as trainee. I was kicked over and over again from every match just because I was trainee and before the actual match begun. They didn't even know if I was good or not, they didn't care, this is why I say APB community is one of the worst or the worst.

APB you should have stayed dead.

Every time i read another news about APB i remember about it and how much fun it was (sometimes), how awesome is the customization and how entertaining was even just to free roam around when not shooting others. And every time i read another news about it i feel i miss it and wanna go back to it.
Then i read the comments and i remember why i quit. They are all right. When saying about a game that this game could have been amazingly fun, but it plain sucks, there is no better example that comes to mind other then APB. Read the previous comments. They are all right.
Maybe in the nearby future we will get a game that will do good where APB did bad. I can only hope.

the game still sucks filled with hackers you can even hack and get unbanned if you know a dev or have paid enough premiums/weapons and yes this has happened many times there was even video footage and screenshots taken of a person speaking to a dev who was in their clan who unbanned this person. this person has been banned 5 times and magically unbanned each time....and there are many others who get unbanned for spending real money.

sounds like a good game? there are more hackers than legit players yet G1 dont care and only ban the hackers who use the free hacks .

the subscription hacks G1 get a slice and ALL of the subscription hacks they ALWAYS go undetected check the subs hack forums if you dont believe me

you can polish a turd all you want but in the end it is still a..... ?

Lets hope one of the upgrades is the Anti-Cheat, currently it's hackers vs hackers.. and GamerFirst don't seem to give a flying **** about cheaters.. as long as they keep buying their "Pay to Rent" Weapons.. and overly priced "Pay to Win/Own" weapons..
And I miss my CCG..

Maybe they should "upgrade" the game balance and matchmaking instead if they want people to come back.

The article is deceiving. Read the blog page and you will see why.
This game will be shut down within the past 2 years, maybe sooner. Most players are hanging onto the game because of the in depth customization, but if you look past that, you have nothing but hackers , same 2 maps, one map that has been around since 2010 that is still not finish, downgraded graphics, yes the graphics has been downgraded , meaning the game look better back in 2010-2011. Joker boxes, arams up the ass, lack of GM's, professional ones. The only thing saving this game is the customization, period.

When they bring back HQ bloom i will be back, but i doubt it will ever come back. The community is in denial, i feel you , because i use to be that way after RTW was shutdown. Another thing, they're talking about this engine upgrade, the final version won't be fully out until maybe summer of 2014, and you talk about faster content coming out lol, what content, RTW stuff? sure. If they can't even post blogs on time or finish up asylum after 4 years, there will be no new content coming out faster. The bottom line here folks, in my honest opinion, this game will be shut down again, because it doesn't look like its going anywhere. Take off those thick ass shades and see the game on what it is, look at it now. 50% of the player base has left the game, only the fools are hanging on.

I'm kinda glad i gave up playing this game 4 months ago, hard decision, but the right one.

Watch dogs, Mercenary ops online and Dizzel is coming, look forward to them and also play Crime Craft, because unlike with APB, CC has everything APB is catching up with.

When this will be done then , im sure that game will run better and get content faster, im only thinking positive :)

core Problem is that APB is running on a heavily tweaked and old UE engine. Thats an issue for nearly all the problems the game has. Server, network code etc. So bringing the Engine up to something more easy to control and deal with, is the base for taking care of these Issues.

Lets hope the best

I thought they were upgrading to Unreal Engine 4 XD

i love this game but you guys have more than graphic problems wrong with this game

Mounted HARD!
