What is APB (All Points Bulletin) and why should I be interested?

Imagine a living breathing city, but for the first time ever it’s online with streets full of vehicles and thousands of civilians going about their daily life.

Introduce 100 players to this online city. Their mission is to achieve fame and fortune, and achieve it fast. Many will take to a life of crime, feeding on the city, its people and its businesses. Other players, the enforcers, will feed on the criminal players. What will the outcome be?

The great thing is, we don’t know! It’s an online sandbox. Many players will gain fame, fortune or notoriety. Alliances will be formed, rivalries will be bitter. One thing we do know, every player will be unique. Thanks to leading edge technology, players can personalize their looks, clothing, vehicles and music.

Welcome to the next evolution of action games into the persistent online space. You’re going to love it.

How much will APB cost?

The actual price for the game itself is still under discussion but we’ll keep you up to date. We can confirm that APB will not require a monthly subscription.

How big is the game world? And how many people fit on one server?

Each game world or server has a limit of 10,000 players concurrently online. These players will be playing on district maps which each hold up to 100 players for action districts or 250 players for social districts. Each world has 100’s of these district maps so although a single action district has a 100 player limit, there is no limit to the number of other players you will encounter. For the individual players who top the leagues, their character will become famous across the whole world, not just one district. It’s a brand new gaming concept where the players are the game, full of unique and innovative tools and game play.

If it handles/plays like Crime Craft it's going to be garbage. I hope they took a look at CC and plan to not copy it in any way, or improve on EVERYTHING.

Game looks great, HAS to be an improvement over GTAIV's online play. That was a huge letdown.

APB Beta Hits The Streets Next Week - apb - Kotaku

After a good month and a half of grilling potential participants about all aspects of their lives, Realtime Worlds is ready to get its beta test on for gangland MMO APB.

Realtime Worlds CEO Gary Dale was on hand at the Tech Media Invest conference in London, where he confirmed that the game some describe as a persistent world Grand Theft Auto would slowly begin letting in beta testers next week. One would expect those accepted into the test to find out extremely soon. Dale also made a point of mentioning that the number of beta participants would steadily increase leading up to next year's launch, so don't give up on it, baby.

I honestly have no idea where that last bit came from.

Fuuuck I hope I get in and if you do please post pics.

No shit.
This app screams future junk mail for targeted marketing demographic.

**Insanecyclone** · 2009-10-16 16:47

Apparently they sent invites out or something but all I got was a survey asking how long I spent playing PC FPS games. I hope that helps with getting in though.
