Sadly, not I also did a stupid mistake, leaving my only hover infantry on shore and not paying attention to them for ~30 seconds. That was the moment where i lost all hope.

Funny Which Player(s) do you dread facing the most? (APB)
Alstar replied to Death_Kitty's topic in W3D Hub Discussion
Before gamma, huh... Serene_Grace. Probably biggest KDA ratio during Nuclear winter, nicknamed a ghost by many players as he/she (nickname sounds girly so im not sure) murederd everyone on his/her path. One of best minelayers in game, then he/she stalks you with Thief/Phase combo (times when phase was radar invisible). Barely anyone could even get close to him/her. During entire NukeWinter i managed to get like 6-7 kills on Serene, while he/she killed me about +50 times. -
Does multiplayer stories apply? Because i might just have one. Not from any original C&C, but from mod Mental Omega. Me and my friend had one of our usual skirmishes "for teh lulz". He had to went AFK (not informing me about it) and got back to see me with way bigger army going at him. At the same moment he attacked my base with Aircraft Carriers, resulting in situation where i had only factory left and he naval yards too far away from me to reach them with any weapons. He couldnt attack me directly with carriers due to massed gattlings and oxidizers (anti-air debuffers). I thought that situation will end up in stalemate. What i didnt knew, is the fact that this detriment does have a plan. In Mental Omega, Allied transporters are armed with (quite powerful) IFV-like rockets. I had no vision at water, so i havent seen him massing them all slowly at point close to me. When he managed to get a critical ammout of them, he baited my attention on side where aircraft carriers were, just to sneak up behind me with all those Voyagers, killing my last building - factory - resulting in his victory and my rage. "Stalemate" took about half of hour. He recorded it.

Hello NodGuy, you were looking for me?

From my point its not who do i dread most (because setting up myself with "oh no they have this player and that player were so screwed" is a thinking style of mpra2 and spyhonfilter. Also a rolling star gives no f*cks) but Who is most ENTERTAINING to fight against. 1. Pushwall. Cool headed guy, always taking best solutions for every situations, solid teamplayer, decend brawler. I usually do not have an easy life against him. 2. Delta. Random shenanigans, mixed with decent teamplay and planning. You do not want to have this guy on enemy team either, even tho his vechicles most often falls a victim to my V2 (sorry). 3. Silverlight. Man with the plan, there is a saying "If something is impossible, give it to Poles". APB version would have "and Silverlight" in the end. Great leadership skills, good at organizing rushes. 4. rantanplan. Impropable aiming skills, most often our V2 vs Arty combats reminds me of intense game of chess. -

What's next? Yuri's Epsilon spotted on antarctica, Foehn forces seen on Alaska, Scrin mothersheeps entering earth airspace, Project Phantom emerging from the ground and so do Necrons, while Blood Ravens rains from the sky? -
Yeah, thanks for suggestions for both You and MPRA2
-
Problem fixed. Steps done: 1. Uninstalled any msvc2015 you have on your PC 2. Installed Service Pack 1 for Win7 3. Attempting to install APB for n times, after nth time it finally worked out.
-
Yes i launch it as admin. Mentioned folder is empty.
-
APB installation still fail, when trying to install msvc2015.exe via launcher.
-
0x80240017 Solved by installing Service Pack 1.
-
Any ideas? Maybe if i could skip somehow first 4 points of installer (msvc2015, direct x and other stuff) it would go smoothly?
-
Okay, i did like MPRA2 said. Now launcher is stuck on "installing msvc2015.exe" but overall progress is marked as failed. Trying to uninstall visual c++ and trying to install game wields same results. At least now it allows to be installed manually without errors after getting SP1.
-
My mini research makes me think that fact of no SP1 update for Windows 7 is at fault (for some reason i didnt had it). I launched windows update and waiting for results.
-
i've tried both of solutions, it did not help. MSVC2015.exe instalation always ends with failure for me.
-
Greetings, after trying to launch the game i have stumbled upon this problem. When trying to join a server a window with "Unable to start program, because api-ms-win-crt-runtima-I1-1-0.dll was not found on your PC". Does anyone know the solution? I know its somehow related to visual c++ 2015 but thats all i know. Small update, attempt of reinstall make me unable to install game again, it keeps failing to install msvc2015.exe

Then you must be low level player. A long way before you, filled with hate, memes, random useless bots and victory through defeat. Good luck Also, Mastodont Mammoth MK II, Restored to full power! Also opinions about incoming chest system? -

Do you mind me to hijack this thread for some more robocraft talk and bot presentation? No? Okay Presenting, Bulldog from non-existing game C&C4. Talking to VERTi60 earlier, i managed to get this unstable pile of trash into well working bot. Added single hover under turret for better movement, drives like a dream. Sadly i cant provide crispy video montage of my awesome blink shotgun kill vs bomber like VERTi60 would do, but i have some low quality screenshots of bot in game. Also, awaiting your latest build montage -

And this was in the pre-Delta days where Tanya couldn't even use a supply truck to get more C4 in the field, she was stuck with the 1 C4 she had (or in some versions, 2 C4 which both had to be used to take out 1 building anyway). I remember that, Cold Fusion days. On maps like KOTG it was painful for tanya to take out enemy building that wasnt conyard due to small delay between both explosions in which conyard always repaired that 1% of hp resulting in failures.

I like that idea for FoI. Sad to hear that DM maps will be probably cut off I enjoyed the hell outta them, probably as only one.
