Invincibility Time Limit Discussion

[Thatdirehit]

 

 

I don't want to put cheat every 5 minutes. It's not funny. Next disappointment.

 

But in IV if you got shot to sh*t, you would have to keep entering the health/armor cheat every 5 minutes. Does it really make that much of a difference?

 

 

Yes it does. in IV it was merely a matter of bringing up your phone and selecting the cheat you wanted - as easy and user friendly as it gets. Unlike V which has implemented GTA SA's cheat system complete with the frustrating button mashing. Which is a nuisance, but that goes without saying.

 

 

 

In gta4 if you are surrounded by cops and are being shot at you are not going to be able to activate the health code until you find cover, which wasn't always possible.

 

In every other gta title and now V you can enter the health cheat even while be shot at and it will still activate. When I played SA I memorized the health cheat through memory and therefore never died because I could quickly activate while being shot at. Something you can't do in 4.

It took me about 3 seconds to activate a cheat in GTA IV. Even whilst under fire I found that taking cover behind any inanimate object gives you plenty of time to activate the health cheat. In GTA V on the other hand it is a chore.

Not for me. There isn't always cover. I don't where you are getting surrounded at, but when you have a helicopter hovering over you and you are in the middle of the street in gta 4 and are surrounded. What cover you are somehow finding I don't know, but trying to activate a cheat is impossible.

In V it doesn't matter where you are or how surrounded you are. If you can put the cheat in quick enough, which most people can, then you are good. It literally takes no more 3 seconds. And bullets don't stop you.

But to each their own.

[Deffpony]

Here is my take on the time limit.

 

At first I had the knee jerk reaction most people are displaying. But after I, thought about it, I understand why they did this.

 

Without the time limit at least 50% of people would never play without the cheat. The cheat would give less incentive to actually play the game how it was intended. You could just plow through all the missions in a day and be left with a watered down version of what they wanted you to enjoy.

 

It would be almost as bad as an infinite money cheat. It would totally kill all the hard work they put into the game like stock markets, robberies, and other side missions. Why would anyone try to earn money when a few button presses gives you an infinite amount.

 

And at the end of the day the people who never played without these cheats would look back on GTA V and call it stale, without thinking about how they may have ruined the experience for themselves.

 

And dont give me the whole "I payed $60, so I should be able to play however I want." Thats just not how things work. It would be like going to a theater and demanding to see the ending of a movie before the rest of it. Just because you paid $18 doesnt mean you have the right to alter the experience that the director intended. Of course the studio isnt going to allow that, Its artistic suicide.

 

If you dont read anything I say fine, but read this:

 

Im so tired of the mentality of modern society. You guys realize you are bitching about a feature you didnt know existed 24 hours ago. I for one am really shocked that they included the god mode cheat, since its not like them to do that. But they compromised their own concerns about how it would affect the game negatively to give it to us in some form or fashion.

 

If this code didnt exist you would have nothing to be upset about. So take a break from the instant gratification entitlement you have been programmed to project and just enjoy the f*cking game.

Enter the code during a mission and a message says that the cheat can't be used during missions and past times. The time limit is only there during free roam, which is when people are just having fun and messing about and NOT progressing through the game. The timers only purpose is to make you put in the cheat again after 5 minutes are up.

Again. WHO f*ckING CARES HOW WE CHOOSE TO PLAY THE GAME?! Seriously, WHO THE f*ck CARES?! We paid for the GTA experience and got a shadow of it. And no, we're bitching about a feature that we've been looking forward to since the first day of release. We've known about the fact that there would be an invincibility cheat since what? A couple HOURS after it was released? And we got excited about it and looked forward to it, hoping it could help make up for all the glaring failures they made with this game. Instead, we get some bullsh*t limitation for no reason. f*ck that and f*ck Rockstar. That's a f*cking joke. So, as always, if you don't like the bitching, piss off to elsewhere on the forum and join in on the circle jerk there.

Wow, you completely miss the point. Ignoring that fact that you think starting with GTA IV somehow makes someone less worthy or whatever. I've been playing since the original top-down GTA. I prefer the phone system as I didn't have to remember 50 different codes. It's SO much better, so much easier to access. You're ridiculously over-dramatic, trying to blame people wanting a silly video game to have options that will make it more fun or even easier for the state of society. You take your gaming FAR too seriously, and have FAR too much of an ego about it. The disappointment comes from the fact that they found a cheat system that was quick, easy to use, and allowed us to have some real fun with the game. It was a huge bit of progress. And then, like so many things, they took a big step back from that and went with this obnoxious style. And to top that off, they decided to be cute with the biggest cheat and make it as disappointing as the rest of the game.

^This. I am in the part of the population who plays 95% of the time without cheats and when I do, I am usually just screwing around in sandbox. I find it way more interesting and satisfying to play without cheats, but I use them to have fun doing things I couldn't do without them. I 100% agree with your evaluation of this cheat and the reason behind it.

 

Is it inconvenient? yes.

 

Is it enough to actually bother me or change my outlook on the entire game? Hell No!

Oh, I did not know that. In that case, I cant see the need for the time limit. Does seem kind of stupid if you cant do it in mission anyway...

WHO f*ckING CARES HOW WE CHOOSE TO PLAY THE GAME?! Seriously, WHO THE f*ck CARES?!

 

 

I would assume that R*, the company who invested 265 million dollars to deliver you a fine tuned experience cares. You sound like an entitled brat to be honest.

 

I have to agree that if it is not allowed in mission, then there is not need for the timer, but ffs its not THAT annoying to pause and re-enter the code every 5 minutes. Actually can make the mayhem a bit more intense knowing you have to re-up

You can use the health and armour cheat during missions, and you can use them from the pause menu so you don't have to worry about dying while typing it, so that helps.

I certainly don't find it as annoying as some people, but it is a little annoying having to keep an eye on that timer so that I don't accidentally die because I didn't realise it had run out until I'm already dead. I went on an hour long rampage earlier and I was so into it I died twice because I hadn't realised it had run out.

 

Whether people are annoyed by it or not, I think we can ALL agree it has no real point being in the game.

 

And a little off topic, has my previous post disappeared or is it just me that can't see it?

[Deffpony]

Sorry, my browser is acting up and for some reason it binned your post after I quoted it. Fixed

In my opinion they should have went the way as it was in Red Dead Redemption, easy menu to access when paused and you could turn cheats on and off whenever you wanted to.

1. You can't use the cheat while doing missions.

2. Unlimited Health was a cheat found in GTA San Andreas and Red Dead Redemption.

3. As of now, i have completed GTA V. Without cheats. So technically, i saw my ''movie'' in the correct order of sequence. However, now that the game is completed, I would like to enjoy my 60$ even more. I can watch the ending of The Dark Knight right now before watching the rest of it, same goes for GTA V. I miss the days where Grand Theft Auto was a game based on having no restrictions. Just plain, good old fun.

It's not about simplifiying everything. Why make it so complicated ? I could plow through the weather cheat in a matter of one second only in IV. But now in V, it takes 5-10 seconds and im punching the air like a damn goof, which results in a wanted level of course. Again, answer me, why make it so complicated ? Why all those laws and restrictions ? Where is the good old Rockstar that would leave me to my own little fun. '' 5 minutes limit is great !! You can always put the cheat again in Pause Mode, if you're not happy, go play IV ! '' wow. You're probably one of those people who praise games like Simcity. Just accepting every bullsh*t that comes by. Of course i can put the cheat again, but why make me do it ? How far have we gotten in the gaming industry where activating codes is a f*cking chore ? A wanted level code that works per star ? Are you f*cking kidding me ? Please stop defending every aspect of this game. Yes, it's great, but it has it's limit. Recently, someone was complaining because he killed a shark is the middle of the ocean and got a wanted level. People we're responding to his thread, saying : A shark in a endangered species, you deserved it. Wow, seriously ? So, if in GTA VI, buying a spunk can, drinking it and then proceeding to throwing it on the ground results in a wanted level, will they come and tell me I deserved it because it was Public Littering ? F*ck me ..

time limit isnt the problem.the problem is there isnt a never wanted cheat,invicibility is fun for about 20 mins then its tedious just killing cops,never wanted & being able to hunt down peds in various places at leisure would have been a far better cheat.

[BlueLakeEDM]

I don't hate the time limit, but to be honest it's kinda f*cking stupid, like why would they put time limits, when they already disable trophies while you got cheats activated, you can't use the cheat to get trophies easier as it's no way to get them... I hope when it comes to PC somebody mods it away.

[GlaucusAtlanticus]

The only reason I can possibly think of is that they didn't want these things to interfere with people's stats on the Rockstar Social Club. Why it would only matter after five minutes I'm not sure, other than to encourage you not to use it at all.

 

It's a funny one. I've got a feeling Rockstar may eventually let us know exactly why it isn't permanent. Maybe it has something to do with how much the engine would have to ignore if things were changed. Like how many bullet wounds would have to be ignored, how many times you trip and fall, whatever. But then you can just re-input the code by which time maybe it's reset, I dunno. Not much logic in an engine having a harder time with doing less.

[Liquid9059]

You can't play missions with the cheat on.. I wouldn't want to play with cheats on the story mode anyways.. But in free roam and when all of your missions are done, like the majority of us here, we want to have a lot of fun using the invincibility cheat.

 

The reason why rockstar only made it 5 min, is simple they didn't want to make the perfect game perfect, because they want everyone to just be more encouraged to have the fun in GTA:O, and it's strategically correct since it's their next big thing.

 

 

It's about business not about anything else, and that's why it kinda sucks.

 

To the person who said it was engine related you are wrong, u can have an intense 6 star rampage for 5 min and over that, so how could it even possibly interfere with the game mechanics.

Would be nice if it was unlimited but oh well. I like how it has the time counter in the corner so you know when it runs out.

marketing scheme to get us to play GTA:O and suck money from our pockets with buying cash and sh*t, cause we will get addicted to GTA:O. its nothing new.. its a COMPANY. they make a game to make money its not hard to understand.. all they care about is money.

This isn't 4 this is the modern world where people don't want to have to enter it every 5 minutes.

 

 

 

 

You're not speaking for the modern world you are speaking for yourself. Not everybody is upset. And GTAiv is game from the "modern world" whatever the hell that means anyways.

 

A majority of the people aware of this issue are upset. I am saying that GTA 4 was the past and we are in the modern world where people want other stuff.

 

You don't know what everybody wants. And what majority are you speaking of? the few users on this forum who are upset? These forums that hardly represent a fraction of the global gta gamer base. Yeah I think you are using "majority" a bit too loosely.

 

The majority of the people AWARE of the issue are upset. And the forums is the majority that represents and expresses that issue.

 

And next people I'm sure they will change it unless they want to be big assholes and cause a spark of more people to complain about it and why the hell would a company put a cheat and remove it that just makes you teasing people causing you to be some of the biggest assholes on the planet. This is an issue since it causes more problems then it solves.

 

 

First of they are not going to change it. I can bet you on that.

 

Secondly the forums do not represent that majority of GTA gamers.

 

It doesn't cause any problems. Rockstar North rarely includes invincibility cheats at all, when they do they always limit it.

 

The forums represent the people expressing the issue and is major it is also a place that rockstar checks on to hear the global views. It does cause problems and make people pissed and people want invicibility cheats so we shouldn't have 5 minute invicibility it is a tease and makes rockstars cheat coder an asshole and should be brought on by global attention. They should change it and we should voice that.

Bahaha "global attention" = Entitled First World Problems
