We have 84 videos, mostly detailing tagging location walkthru's still available and a link to the Music Studio Guide which is probably the best guide created for it, though credit for that goes to wowfony.

Enjoy the mayhem on the streets of San Paro!

District Maps

Posted by GlobalTech Atlas

While the ATLAS may be closed (and all of our own maps gone), we still wanted to share two excellent maps sent to us by our friends at http://vk.com/apb_funs, a Russian (we think) fansite.  These maps are wonderfully done and so much better reflect the city than the traditional in-game maps.

Below are both the Financial District and the Waterfront District.








The ATLAS is Closed

Posted by GlobalTech Atlas

SanParoATLAS.info is now officially closed.  

Our maps hosting has expired and are gone from this site.  We had intended to relaunch, but a number of factors (and competing projects) got in the way of that.

The site will remain for a limited time under the address http://sanparoatlas.info.  Upon expiration of the paid URL, it will revert back to http://sanparoatlas.blogspot.com and will remain available indefinitely.

We hope that you enjoyed this site and wish you all the best on the streets of San Paro. 


San Paro is ALIVE!

Posted by GlobalTech Atlas

San Paro ATLAS is set to relaunch shortly.  We are currently getting 'our shit in order' to relaunch with news, guides, updates about beta and more. 

We are ecstatic that our beloved APB is returning to live again in the world we have come to love. 

We look forward to bringing you all the news you can use, but till then, be sure to check out the officialish temporary blog here for the latest blog updates.

See you all soon!

APB has new OWNER!

Posted by GlobalTech Atlas

After months of speculation, down-and-out MMO APB finally has a new owner.

K2 Networks is it. GamesIndustry.biz reports that a sum of around £1.5 million sealed the deal.

Who? The outfit that takes Asian online games like War Rock and 9 Dragons and localises them for the West.

K2 also operates global free-to-play platform GamersFirst, which makes a micro-transaction model seem likely for APB in the future.

An official statement is coming next week.

APB is a modern-day cops and robbers MMO. It was to be Crackdown creator Realtime Worlds' - and GTA creator Dave Jones' - masterpiece.

But two-and-a-half months after a July launch, Realtime Worlds had collapsed and the plug had been pulled on the APB game servers.

APB website & servers offline

Posted by GlobalTech Atlas

  It appears that the APB.com website, Realtimeworlds.com & the APB patch servers have all been taken offline. 

From a posting on the launcher, it even appears that the remaining staff don't even know what's going on, but at least appear to have access with logins to make such posts.   We kind of suspect that they have been shown the door but have been doing what they can while they still have access.
=== 20/09/2010 ===
Looks like the patch servers have been taken offline now.
If anyone has any additional information, please post in a comment below. 

REGARDING THE FUTURE OF SANPAROATLAS.INFO:


We currently have no plans to shutter this site and it will remain open and accessible through May 29, 2012.  At that time the website will revert to it's native domain http://sanparoatlas.blogspot.com.


We do not plan on providing any support or updates for this site unless something significant changes with APB.  


All of the flash elements may however shut off on July 19. 2011.  This includes all the flash maps and clothing directories we have created.  Depending on other future projects, this may remain after that time if we renew our hosting for those other projects.  


We recommend user visit http:sanparopost.com for more regular updates on APB.

The LAST APB Has Been Issued.

Posted by GlobalTech Atlas

RTW today announced the shutdown of the APB today.

APB has been a fantastic journey, but unfortunately that journey has come to a premature end. Today we are sad to announce that despite everyone's best efforts to keep the service running; APB is coming to a close. It's been a pleasure working on APB and with all its players.

Together we were building an absolutely amazing game, and for that, we thank you. You guys are awesome!

From all of the Realtime World staff we thank you for your continued support.

The servers are still up, so join the party and say goodbye!

- Ben 'APBMonkey' Bateman (Community Officer)

We are saddened by this announcement greatly and wish everyone the best in their future gaming. 

I remember for everyone.
