Before this goes off track into memes again
I don't think rockstar will do anything about these guys like ban or bad sport them. Do you think GTAO Is going to be like this forever? A bunch of 120's running around with miniguns griefing people? It's only a couple weeks in so imagine what it will be like when the HONEST players get to 120. Is there any hope for the future or is it just the beginning of a very slippery downward slope into unplayability?
okay, serious reply here.
did you honestly log into GTAO expecting sunshine, rainbows, and honest, upstanding citizens of Los Santos to greet you with a tip of their fedora? engage in jolly cooperation, everyone helping out their fellow crim, occasionally taking a break to play a crisp game of darts or tennis?
no. this is Grand Theft Auto. it's always been about killing, blowing sh*t up, messing around and doing whatever the f*ck you want.
do not trust anyone but your friends. if you see a player, you have either two options: avoid them or gun them down before they inevitably do the same to you.
freeroaming around in a lobby, you need to be more cunning than everyone else in the session or you will get f*cked over. if you get f*cked over, f*ck them over twice as bad. use the game mechanics to your advantage.
protips: miniguns cannot lock on. you can.
flank your opponent from the side, snap your lockon to his head and fire a couple times before he can free-aim at you. problem solved.
someone hunting you down, killing you repeatedly? take up a sniper rifle, buy a couple hundred rounds, go to the hospital, snag a helicopter, perch yourself on a roof and eradicate them until they lose twice as much money as you did, ammunition costs included.
did someone destroy your car? go to a helipad with a cargobob, hunt them down, pick up their personal vehicle (with or without them inside) and throw it into the f*cking ocean. you don't get labeled as a bad sport if the environment destroys the car. want to spice it up a bit, literally? follow them around until they die or go into a shop. while they're occupied, take out a jerry can and douse their tires with fluid and fire at the gas trail. indirect flames are considered environmental damage, so no bad sport.
some dudes in a buzzard gunning everyone down? same technique as before, grab a sniper rifle, pick off the pilot just like in single player. especially easy if the copter has passengers, because the pilot needs to fly steady so their passengers can aim smoother.
don't just fight back. fight back and jam their heads in the dirt while doing so. send a message.
being chased randomly? rather than simply engaging in a firefight, find a building with a ladder, climb it and place f*cking stickybomb at the top.
eventually, people learn to leave you the f*ck alone. have fun with it.
