Why so frowned upon to destroy personal vehicles?

It would be better if you blew up someones car you pay for the insurance. And if you happen to kill a person while doing it you get an instant 4 stars. I think thats better than the bad sport thing.

"You can't fix stupid"

 

Applies to you more than most people I've seen on these forums. You're in the minority. You don't wanna get killed in different ways, you want to auto aim to kill.

 

They're gonna take bad sport out of blowing people's cars up, I guarantee it. They have a bunch of up voted complaints about it on support site.

 

And you imply like no other. And you have a fetish for the word noob.

 

To me it seems your more built for single player games where you won't be touched/molested/beat online.

 

They will not remove this from the game. They may start to allow players to forgive another player when it happens and possibly remove some of the restrictions of being in the bad sport server but this rule is here to stay. The group that is against this is simply a very vocal minority who want to annoy people without consequences.
Yeah no it's not. People that are against it are the minority. Why you see less people backing it up.

 

You want consequences in a game where you break rules, steal cars, blow up stuff, shoot people, crash planes and heli's into people, and drive fast. Why don't we make consequences for shooting other players too then, what's the difference. You pay more when you die then you do for your car.

 

It's gonna be funny when bad sport is no longer given for destroying cars.

 

You will be the first bitch to whine when others constantly blow up your car for fun fa**ot.

Lol you're a cool person.

 

I don't care if they blow my car up because I'll blow up your car and camp and follow you until you leave.

And that, people, is why the bad sports system works the current way and it is right.

Because its just a rude thing to do. Not only do you typically have to pay the medical bills (assuming you die) but then you gotta pay to get your own car back. Lameee. The few times I've had my car blown up during a job the person did pay back the premium, does this help resolve your standing and prevent you from being placed in a bad sports session?

Surprisingly, this doesn't happen to me a lot. There was one instance in Rooftop Rumble where a guy accidentally filled my car with bullets, causing it to blow up, but he paid for it so it was alright. I think sticky bombs are fun if not overused, for example when I was "trolling" my friend by kicking him out of my car while in motion, then driving away. Next time he put a sticky bomb on my grille and told me to behave, or else. I laughed very hard that day.

People blow up my car I blow up theirs it shouldn't be punishable to take revenge on their car when they've blown up yours and since I do it this way I'm now a bad sport for two days which sucks but not much you can do about it.

this... with punctuation.

 

Things like this shouldn't happen. Since we can get our cars back easily and don't even have to pay our own insurance if someone destroys it there's no reason to BS players for that.

Bad sport should be reserved for real bad sports that cheat and/or keep griefing after being reported over and over by different players. That way the community would police itself.

If i see someone driving around in an adder.. i get my buzzard, place a 1k bounty on them and blow them up thus they pay the 12K insurance.

 

Why you ask?

 

I don't like people having nice things..

It's pretty annoying after you've played for a long time, it also gets very boring very quickly.

 

I'd rather have someone pull up to me and have a race with me and beat me that way.

I don't mind either way, I'll blow up cars, and idc if someone destroys mine.

 

What REALLY grinds my gears is that people can(and do) leave races all day long, and the next day, and the next day, and the next day, yet their racing record stays flawless and they're STiLL considered a "good sport".... Ha!

 

BS R*,,, BS!

I just had some tramp in high heels blow my Bullet 6 times today. Probably wasted 15 rockets and 2000x6 = 12K for insurance.

I wasn't bothered in the slightest and laughed instead.

In addition to blowing up personal vehicles, killing anybody who is in passive mode (or killing others while in passive mode - by doing it from a vehicle) should be an offense. Except the second should be FAR worse.

What about those that use passive mode while you're fighting their friends to casually walk up behind you (while you can do nothing about it) and open fire the second they're able? You have no way of knowing when this will be and with their teammates shooting at you from the other direction you can't cover yourself. Surely that's abusing the system too?

actually you cant pull out weapons in the countdown off of passive mode but you can be killed and your dot turns white. but you cant shoot until the timer is off. so if you see that the persons blip is not a cross they cant kill you straight away but they are coming for you

^ That!

 

Passive mode is not passive enought, and roadkill should not be possible either.

f*ck paying insurance for a car that was being used to chase & harass the sh*t out of me

 

i just got into the habit of ordering a tank while being pursued by some nerd in an expensive car (with his buttbuddy in the passenger seat half the time)

 

after that, i just keep driving and then eventually lure them to the tank spawn.

 

it's my way of teaching them being a buttwipe comes with a price. usually around 10k :beerhat:
