Opening a contact screen gives you the option to pledge, buy/sell items and even open the Armas Marketplace.




This is the contact tree. It is the order in which you unlock contacts, shown is both Criminal (Red) and Enforcer (Blue) trees.
This may have only been for informative reasons, but the above screenshots will have hopefully made you eager to try out APB.

Also check out the APB Database for info on all existing, planned, and tested weapons and mods.


For Facepunch Community:

The largest concentration of Facepunchers is on Facepunch Enforcers Joker (FPEJ). Contact me (MrSomeguy), HHBlackhawk (ZoeyZ443), Capgun, Steven :D (MaximumEnforcing), or Sie-Sveinhund (Svein) for membership. You must be online in order to accept the invitation. We also run a criminal clan (FPCJ), but it is very small and only has 2 active members (Me and Blackhawk). Facepunch Enforcers Obeya is largely dead, and Facepunchers there and elsewhere are mostly scattered about different clans.

Update: Obeya Clan is reborn; Facepunch Enforcement Inc, the leading service of collateral damage and vigilantism, is now open! Contact Mastahamma (Ingrid) or NitronikALT (Nitronik4ever) for invite, NitronikALT (Nitronik4ever) for Male Uniforms

T-Sonar.0 posted:

11) High-Contact Standing Reward weapons (Tommy gun, OSMAW, OPGL) can not be purchased in Armas.

12) To add on to number 1 & 5, all Armas Preset weapons have been given a negative attribute guns in the normal game do not have.

Examples:

- Scoped N-Tec has a bigger bloom spread than a normal N-Tec with HS3. It's more accurate at long ranges going full auto, but while moving you won't be able to hit anything. This makes the Scoped N-Tec more situational and a normal N-Tec more versatile.

- OCA Whisper has increased range, but at the same has less of a CQC advantage than free-mod OCAs.

- CSG has less hard damage than a JG. The CSG also has more pellets than a JG, but the pellets do less damage. This means if you're not dead on the center hit you're not gonna do much damage.

- HVR Scout is obvious. Less ammo/damage than a normal HVR.

Obligatory first post about new thread.

Also it's very neat and way less cluttered, I like it.

Agreed, but if anyone thinks the anything from the old OP should be added back in, just say so.


Onto the actual thread: Does anyone know if CJ3 works on the OBIR? I've heard CJ3 is bugged and makes the burst time shorter, instead of shortening the time between trigger pulls.

[slayer20]

So I read that it's possible to obtain your character from the beta, but you wouldn't have your items or cars from it.

I can't remember my beta password, but from what I've read it's supposed to be 9 letters long with at least 1 number and 1 capital.

And there's no way to retrieve your old beta password either...

That's why my character didn't show up when I decided to start playing again.

[-nesto-]

Just got back into after 2 weeks, what the fuck did they do. First match was me and a trainee vs 3 green r+100 with whispers.

[Kaelazun]

Add to the op that most facepunchers play on Obeya and Joker

Probably late as fuck, but I go to manually join a district and it says please be aware blah blah blah continuing to manually join this instance will reduce your standing and cash rewards.

Is it like lowered notoriety/prestige? Or is it reduced overall?

[Mr. Someguy]

It's just Cash and Standing.

Edited:

If you join a district from the 'pictures' screen, you will never get reduced rewards.

[slayer20]

This is going to be a silly question...

If someone puts up a pair of pants on the auction that seems like regular pants and you bid and win on it, will you be able to customize it?

[Mr. Someguy]

No, you cannot customise objects from the marketplace.

[Dude Meister]

Regarding earlier comment about clothes. I literally have every single clothing item unlocked for chicks, except the preset outfits from the crim boss contacts. So if anyone wants a custom item, mail me ingame (Lyarii) and I'll make you something, if I can. Providing it's not one of the strangely expensive items, I won't charge either!

I also have clan invite privileges, might wanna add that.

[capgun]

Someguy, put somewhere in the OP that you have to be online to be invited to the clan.

[Mastahamma]

A nice guide for fixing out of memory crashes.

If you're playing this game, chances are you have at least 4 GB of RAM in your computer. And you're running it on a 32 bit system. And you're crashing due to being out of memory every 20 minutes. Well fear not! There is a solution, and you can do it yourself!

First, you need to open up Command Prompt in administrator mode. You can just search for "cmd" in your computer, right click it, run as administrator.

Second, you need to type this in: "bcdedit /set IncreaseUserVa 3072". This will allow your system to allocate 3 gigabytes instead of 2 for gaming and other things, mostly for gaming.

Third, restart your computer and enjoy a mostly crash free APB gaming experience!

Note: this only works if you're on Vista or 7, XP is a much more difficult process and I don't know how to do it, anyway. Also, I wouldn't be very courageous trying this with 3 gigs, but I've heard it works, you just need to change the number up a bit.


Put this in the OP, wouldya

You do realize that everyone stopped caring within the first 14 seconds of it being announced, right?

[NitronikALT]

Really nice OP. Nice job Someguy!

Also, I plan on getting premium and a character slot soon. I think I just fell in love with this game.

I'm sure you guys have heard of the Something Lawful clan in APB.. Or at least the Something Awful website. This is what happens when peopel from SA play MMOs... Poor massively. http://www.twitch.tv/massivelytv/b/307350713

For some reason you snipped some awesome stuff out the OP I created a while back. No idea why, it's solid content and could bring more players to the game.

MEDIA

Example of Symbol Creator





Example of the Car Editor





Example of Character Customization






In early Summer 2010 Realtime Worlds decided they were going to do some PR for the game by getting the community to vote on various options to do with the character creation screen, which would then be translated onto a real life human. It happened, the guy got tattoos, haircuts, new clothes, it was brilliant. It's in 6 stages, and is here:

There was some other stuff as well, but it seemed a bit out-dated. This stuff however isn't really that out-dated compared. If you wish to add it to the OP go wild. You can find a pastebin here: http://pastebin.com/umAhuKpv

If you add it to the OP or update the OP with some of this content then PM me here.

I did so because I felt the old OP was far too cluttered, and wanted to slim it down a lot. So it was decided to only grab the links, guide section, and server statuses.

[HHBlackhawk]

Anyone else getting a weird bug where Marksmanship mode just toggles itself off whenever it feels like it? It's kinda put me and Someguy out of action since it severely limits our weapon choice and as soon as any enemies pull out snipers in a semi-open area we're screwed.

I also want to ask how does one screw this up while changing THREAT?
