22ndSAS PC Gaming Clan

San Paro is a living, breathing, online city, its streets the playground for Criminals and Enforcers. Their mission is to gain fame and fortune, and gain them fast. Criminals take to a life of crime, feeding on the city, its people and its businesses. Other players, the Enforcers, feed on the Criminals.

APB's world is an online sandbox. Players will achieve celebrity or notoriety for their skills and style. Alliances will be formed, rivalries will be bitter. Every player will be unique. Thanks to cutting-edge technology, players can personalize their looks, clothing, vehicles and music. Earn money, clothing, guns, and cars as you play. Become a top-ranking player or Clan in leagues that track Kills, Arrests, Mission Success rates, and many other competitive stats.

APB is entirely online and multiplayer. However, it's a unique game unlike other MMOs out there. The game runs on fast, high-quality dedicated servers allowing you to enter cities and engage in a new style of game where your actions bring you into opposition with other players dynamically: there's no waiting in lobbies. You can encounter thousands of other players over a short period of time. Our dynamic matchmaking allows solo and group play in missions, against - or with - real people, never an AI.


# Conflict: APB is a fast paced multiplayer action game that uses a dynamic matchmaking system to throw real life opponents at you in real time. There's no AI, no waiting in lobbies, no waiting for a map to start. The action flows constantly and every threat you face in APB is controlled by a real person, you never know exactly what you're going to be up against.
# Creativity: APB has an 'expression suite' of in-game customization tools. Any items created with these tools can be traded or sold to other players through the Marketplace.
# Persona: one of the most in depth character creation systems ever seen, allowing players to tweak thousands of parameters, to create physically unique and lifelike characters.
# Designer: which allows players to create imagery they can apply to pretty much anything they want. Tattoos, clothing, vinyls on vehicles, clan logos, spray tags, etc.
# Garage: An area where players can customize vehicles to their hearts content. Change the colours, add symbols and imagery, add body kit parts, modify the speaker system, players can even change the exhaust sound!
# Music Studio: A fully fledged sequencer style music studio, allowing players to create their own 'death themes'.
# Celebrity: Players gain fame in APB for winning leagues, creating clothing brands, or pretty much anything they want! Attain accolades and see your statue erected in the Social and Action districts. Popular players, clans and brands will also be featured on thecommunity page every day in addition to League results - and there are a lot of Leagues!

Part 2 - mainly gameplay - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zfBdyas0xOA

Me and Smashey have already ordered this game and i believe rich/hardcore is going to order it to.

This game is majorly team based and it would be great to have some of you guys playing aswell.
It probably wont appeal to all of you but im sure some of you might take a fancy to it :-p

a.k you do know this game asks for a fee,,,,,,,,,,,, you stoned lunatic

i myself am going to get a chip kebab special and release my pent up stress .in the morning hopfully raw arse screaming never again and ,j esus i need to wash the bed linen as have a nan bread stuck to me face wont be on the agenda but being a kebab ill end up doing more work than the diorea inducing meal intended not to mention savolon expense,s

ordering my centaur cossy as i type

ak I played the beta on this and it is really enjoyable... however... It is a pay by the hour game.

its like £5.99 for 20 hours or £8.99 for 30 days... (Same as other online subscription games)

Hope you like it, I was gonna buy he full version but going to hang fire for now and see how it takes off.

It looks a little bit like a GTA IV ripoff from the looks of the videos I've seen....though GTA IV doesnt give you the customisation options.

WTF .

Im gettin more and more interestin in this game, although qwerty got it the other day and appretnly its bugged to high heaven im not sure if i wanna shell out the money just to wait for another game that take years to get working, any1 else got this with no problems?

Im not bothering, I dont believe in games you have to pay full retail price for and then subscribe to for continued usage. In my book, if you're paying £30 (probably £20 on play.com) that should be the last penny you spend on the game (expansion packs / hardware purchases excluded).

I'm getting more and more pissed off with game developers with regards to bugs, in the programming industry there are things called standards, and yet game developers are constantly churning out titles that are bug ridden and they get away with it for the most part with the end-users accepting lower quality products. Sure some will complain, but the mere fact that all gamers now expect bugs in games is taking the piss.

If you are developing websites or desktop applications you cant get away with churning out bug ridden [sh*t] and taking months to fix it (unless its a UK Goverment project!).
