That and the fact that p2w:airquote: weapons really aren't. The JG has the same exact spread as the CSG unless you put CJ in it and has such marginally better damage that it would only come into play in a situation where the SLIGHTLY better damage would net you a kill where the JG wouldn't (practically never, given the gun's damage) The whisper is a completely different gun than the OCA, and in the opinion of many, just worse. The golden AK is just worse than a 2 slotter. The Scout is a case for p2w, but the scout is not that effective and worse than a regular HVR for teamplay.

The only true p2w weapon to me is the chopper, because I want it, but I don't want to drop money for it. But even then it's just pay to have. The gun isn't OP by any stretch of the imagination.

Unlocked that by hiring the Big chopper during the event and going to town in fight clubs, but I wasn't able to finish the snubby love part in time. Though in all honesty unlocking a perm tommy gun was the far better choice.

Yes, this:

quote:

Espacio:

Overall this vehicle is slightly more fast and manoeuvrable, with an increased clearance, and no longer pulls to the right.

•Adjusted suspension travel on all wheels from 15cms to 21cms. This ensures full grip for all wheels on the road, so vehicle doesn't veer right when accelerating.
•Raised suspension from 12cm to 18cm (necessary due to suspension travel change)
•Slightly improved Torque at 500rpm for improved acceleration from stationary.
•Reduced suspension damping and increased stiffness to reduce flexibility of now increased suspension.
•Reduced amount of engine torque applied to the chassis.
•Increased engine braking factor.
•Increased reverse throttle
•Increased steering angles at all speeds.
•Adjusted centre of mass to be lower and nearer the front (makes sense for a front-heavy vehicle)
•Slightly improved maximum speed.

The joker carbine is still just as good in CQC which is where most fights occur. It's just slightly worse at range because you have to control your firing rate.

For range a obeya is better though. And occasionally you can make use of it in close, though not as elegantly as a joker.

Nope!

quote:

Yes, the vehicles are completely customisable.

In addition, the parts shown here are not the entirety of the kits. Several of the parts have variants that can be used (various sunroof differences for the Nomad, different window configs for the Citadel) along with entirely new parts. As an aside, while we improved these vehicles (they needed to be updated before we added new kits) we also added non-plastic parts to the enforcer pioneer which we will send to anyone that has purchased a kit in the past. Also, It has been mentioned it in the vehicle thread but I’ll mention it here as well. The existing vehicle kits available on Armas are compatible with these vehicles. If you have bought any factional specific vehicle kit (for instance, Carrying Kit 1, the Stacer Kit, for your Espacio) and purchase the cross-factional vehicle (the Nomad), you will find you have the comparative kit (in this example the Colima kit) waiting in the Garage for you.

I now know that I made a mistake in deciding to have my main as a criminal. What causes me to feel this way? The fact that the Tactical pack is a lot cooler than the Paramilitary pack. I am sad now. Oh well, as least I could always buy the best Pioneer kit ever if I want! Even if you guys get the best Espacio kit ever! They were right when they were talking about how those totally change the cars.

I think they're calling the Pioneer the Citadel and Espacio the Nomad, but either way I think it's not the body kits (it already says kit names) but that the cross faction vehicle has a new name. Criminal Pioneer and Enforcer Espacio have different names than Criminal Espacios and Enforcer Pioneers because they are altered to fit the new faction.

e; I'm wrong about the names as Espacio has Citadel license plates.

I'm really looking forward to mixing the existing pioneer kit with this new one if I buy that thing on my crim. Which I probably will. Also, hard to notice, but the crim pioneer has a cute little spoiler, I think I like that.

But hey, the enf Espacio is loving boss. It gets fancy cop lights and like, an armoured windshield. Both kits look amazing.

I actually really like APB. It's just that the good times are so good that they're worth cherishing and the bad times are so awful it's almost weaponised. Some days you'll have exceptional games and everything will click whereas some days it's the gaming equivalent of rubbing glass into your eyes.

Regarding 1.7: I loving love the Enforcer Espacio and I can't wait to drive it, it's so good. I've already got a fun and familiar design for it.

That said, the Criminal Pioneer variant makes me green with envy and I really, really hope Enforcers can get it somehow. Even through Armas, I don't care :colbert:

I have an odd feeling some of the pieces that are on that pioneer are going to be in the new "not plastic" pioneer kit they're giving us. We'll see, but I'd laugh forever if it was.

It looks ridiculous, and that's what I love about it. It's so balls to the walls silly looking that it's almost a different car and I can think of some designs that'd look really good on it. Embrace the retardedness.

On the bright side, if they're making all the bodykits available to the opposing side (Apart from the unique Enforcer/Crim variants), I can't wait to get my hands on the retarded huge spoiler for the Espacio. I've loved that silly wing ever since I first saw it.

Currently the vaquero is full retard jeep and you are more likely to explode before you get to the point. That may change with the patch on Wednesday but even if it becomes driveable its top speed is poo poo.

Could at least flip one or two, maybe.
The logical conclusion is the creepy anime murderer.

Murderer looks bland and something any ole pubbie would make.


Now, as aside, I'm getting into this game again, slowly. Problem is, though, I bought the Pioneer way back when and I hate it. It's not a bad car, but it's slow and hard to handle and a bit of a tank, where as I am actually good at driving in APB. (Or was.) I don't need to be a tank.
