APB: Reloaded - Spooky Scary Halloween
Pepsidude:
Shamelessly copy and pasted topic.
Whats APB?
APB is a GTA Styled cops and robbers MMO set in the crime-ridden city of San Paro. There are two factions, Criminals and Enforcers. Criminals are pretty self-explanatory, they do bad stuff. Enforcers are basically vigilantes who try to stop the Criminals from doing said bad stuff.
The game also has amazing customization.
Is actually it F2P?
Yes, to a degree. You can play and enjoy the game without paying at all. However premium accounts are available, and so are premium weapons. Neither of these proved a huge advantage luckily, and many of the Premium weapons are the same as normal ones, just with a few mods that you can also get without paying. The premium account alone doesn't provide combat benefits, it just increases your rewards at the end of a mission and allows you to buy things from the Armas Marketplace for 20% off.
How good is the customization?
It's pretty damn good. There's lots of clothes, and a pretty nice selection of cars.You can design your own symbols and put them whereever you want on your car, yourself, your clothes. It's pretty neat. You can also make a custom tune for your enemies to hear once you kill them.
Any Tips?
I'll add some of my own and if anyone here has some good ones I'll add them
Don't rush in unless it is 100% nessissary, you will likely be gunned down.
-Use Cover.
-Switch the cameras position to see around corners.
-Don't use the same route multiple times.
-Coordinate attacks with your team.
-Don't try to take on a dump truck by ramming it, you won't win.
-If the enemy has an RPG, don't use a car within a certain distance. That distance depends on the situation and what the current objective is. Also, don't take a long route with lots of walls. The splash damage will cause you nothing but grief. Take the shortest route to get up to them without them getting a chance to attack. If they DO manage to get a rocket out, if they don't kill you, they will ALWAYS switch to their secondary weapon. Use this to your advantage, because the secondary weapon they'll be using most likely won't be enough to bring you down. -Jokey365

HerpaDerp:
This is pretty fun once you get into it, it's kinda boring/hard at first but once you unlock a bit of stuff and get used to the game and how it plays, its a lot of fun with friends.
