Whine about car spawning

[orlos_]

Yeah, I love this game very much. Just achieved 100% within 80 hours. BUT one thing is pissing me off and kills my joy everytime I search for a certain vehicle. After 80 hours I still haven't seen many cars. For example, I found Phoenix just when I unlocked Trevor. Unfortunately it blew up. No sign of this car since then. Also, today I was watching a gameplay on youtube and guy was driving a car which I didn't even know about. I mean, it's cool that some cars are rare and hard to find but after 80 hours? Come on...

 

Second problem, when for example I enter a vehicle of some class (lets pick SUVs here), half of npcs is driving SUVs. Wtf? The only time when they spawn with different classes is when I drive a bike.

 

And hello to the forum.

It's a known issue, and R* says they can't fix it. Just going to have to live with it. Also, the car on youtube, what did it look like?

GTA's are usually like this in a given area. But sometimes rarer cars spawn in parked locations.

 

I'd never seen a Blista Compact, then one day I just found one parked. So keep an eye out, also helps if you're in an area where that wealth level of car is common. You'll spot one eventually, and you'll probably treasure it afterwards. I'd like more variety too on the streets, but it's kind of what I expect in a GTA.

It had shape similar to Dilettante but with more modern head and rearlights. Maybe I could find it on social club but they are working on vehicles page right now.

 

Anyway, if that can't fix this issue why they place 250 vehicles in game. I really want to drive some of them (that infamous Phoenix) but I cant find them. Seriously, I would be cool with 150 cars if I could just find every one of them.

I found this vehicle on wikia. It's called Surge.

So, the only way I can see it is by searching the internet. Good job Rockstar.

I've noticed that alot of vehicles will spawn after you get discharged from any of the hospitals and roam around the immediate area and surrounding blocks on foot for awhile...I grabbed a Dominator, Phoenix, Youga, and finally got Mikey's hands on a Futo this way lol. I've also been trying to find version 2 of the Baller (the one with the stripe on the side)...anyone happen to know where I can find one? I have no trouble finding the other one as I've probably seen a million of them already lol.

If you car hop the spawns change rapidly.

Works for online too.

Just jack a car then drive and look for any other car someone is driving then jack that and so on.

Each time you jack a different model car different models spawn up.

Different areas help too as you do this.

 

I use this tactic online when hunting for a specific car.

Hi, I'm level 16 now and have seen the surge many times so I thought this was a common car and I found that when they spawn they are everywhere for a certain time then another random car spawns and so on. I have seen it around the Los Santos Custom near where Michael's house is but also where the Adder spawns in SP which is below where Michael's house would be in SP. Hope this helps to find it. I have seen mostly during daytime.

Regarding the new Baller or the Range Rover Evoque which it is based on I have found it spawns around evening time and late at night but also sometimes around noon. They are often to be found around where the Adder spawns in SP which i think is supposed to be based on Rodeo Drive and If you find one and put it in your garage to get the tracker then just drive it around and after a while cars just like it will "force spawn". The Baller can be sold for $9000 every in game day which is 48 real minutes. Sorry this is not a whine about car spawning

This is just how their vehicle spawning system works - In huge open world games like this one, this is the only optimized solution for spawning vehicles.
