grand theft spaghetti

why do I have the feeling rushfox is quick to vote to kick any players that don't let him kill them?

 

oh, you rolled out of the way when I tried to run you over and then you killed me instead? VOTE TO KICK!

 

what? you shot me out of the buzzard when I was trying to blow you up? VOTE TO KICK!

 

you beat me to the crate drop? VOTE TO KICK!

Rarely get bounties placed on me but if and when I do I don't waste time hiding away. Got no problems with people who do and am perfectly fine with the 'safe house' aspect of the game, but I prefer to run it out. It's totally worth it if you get a little creative with your pursuers.

 

Case in point. I usually rush to Sandy Shore's airfeild and take one of the unarmed planes, then proceed to fly directly over the highways (abuse of the 2D map ftw). I had a group of about 5 kids run into each other on the highway, four that were killing each other chasing me on the road and one that tried to lie in wait ahead of me, even blocking the road with a semi (props for foresight). Roadblock worked, just not against who he wanted it to. They blasted the hell out of each other and the whole time I'm just laughing as I fly away.

 

Finally one tried to snipe me from the Vinewood sign. Wish I could have been there to see him rage when I bi-sected him with my plane. Ran the bounty out at that point and called it a day. Sat pretty with an extra $3000 in my pocket and some points in my flying skill. Damn fun all around.

 

 

So the point is everybody has a way of coping with bounties, but it all boils down to how you want to play it, which this game lets you get pretty unorthodox with. If you want to hide, that's fine. If you want to fight, cool. If you want to play the runner, great. If you want to roll over and take it in the cornhole, more power to you.

 

Hell the only thing to do wrong here is raging at people for doing any of these things.

I'm really getting tired of people camping in their apartments as soon as they get a bounty on their head. As a bounty hunter it really isn't that bad, I kill you ONCE get the bounty then continue on with whatever.

 

I'd like to have getting into properties disabled if you have a bounty.

You could cry about it on the internet, or you could move on to another mark.

One of them might get you somewhere.

Lol I just checked my stats, I've only ever had one bounty put on me, and I've stolen my fair share of cars to be sure, I'm either running good or a car jacking ninja

No, Phyxius called me hardcore as a derogatory, thats why its in quotations.

 

edit: you have no argument, you lose.

 

I asked you to go play EVE Online and DayZ if you wanted hardcore games. I never called you hardcore. (page 4, post #120 or last post on the page). I actually called you just one more carebear... take notes if you can`t keep up...

People obsessed over others hiding in their apartments with a bounty on their head are RETARDS. If it's THAT easy to get you upset, you have no business playing an adult game.

 

There's plenty to do in this game aside from stalking people and crying about their refusal to feed your infantile needs.

If another player puts a bounty on me I just start an invite only session and play golf, do missions, make money, ETC.

 

That way I don't stay in my apartment and I still get to play the game.

 

This thread is just another classic case of "Stop playing your way and play my way."

Next time one of these douchebags puts a bounty on my head, I WILL camp at my apartment, and proceed to go do something else for an hour while the game is on. I will feel all warm and fuzzy inside knowing someone like the OP is pulling his hair out and screaming obscenities. :lol:

Your mad because people use a defensive strategy? That's silly. Calm down.

Eve is a pay to play game that costs money every set period of time, it's also a great game and I would be very interested in it if I wasn't a cheapass and hadnt heard that it was ruined by the producer long ago.

 

 

Its grand theft auto, not hello kitty island adventure, its a bounty, not a.. I dunno its a f*cking bounty bro, someone is being payed to kill you kinda thing, hiding in your apartment doesnt stop assassins breh, they come for you IN YOUR SLEEP

 

Your arguments are invalid and Im kinda disappointed that someone like you would have such pathetic minded views... Srsly breh, its GTA.. hiding from people who might make you spent 5 seconds at a black screen respawning and 500$(CAREBEAR IT SHOULD BE 2K to JUSTIFY MY 2K) of your 14k you made in 2 minutes...

 

Thats carebear horsesh*t and nothing less, you know it is.

 

Put it this way, if R* doesn't go back on these bad sport style mechanics (which if you checked on their website they are interested in player input on that subject alone especially.. which suggests its about to be TONED DOWN) they will never break that record they made again.. and the series will go call of duty into the toilet.

 

Wasn`t me that brought up other games and COD into discussion.

 

Again, it`s a simple mechanic as it is: Kill the bounty before it vanishes or not. You are really deluded if you expect ANYONE to just stand still with a bounty on their head, or make it easy for you as a hunter.

 

What you are suggesting is a load of bullsh*t that will give an advantage to the hunter and hinder the person with a bounty because you are butthurt that somebody will simply not run chest first into a fight. Deal with it and move on or cry a river, I don`t care. But you sound more like a carebear by crying over spilt milk than the ones you call that way.

 

 

 

You dont know how to play.

 

Standing still with a bounty is the best way to kill your attackers, as they approach in their cars.

 

Theres nothing wrong with running from a bounty

 

 

That said, focus goes to this.

 

you are butthurt that somebody will simply not run chest first into a fight.

 

Deal with it and move on or cry a river, I don`t care.

 

 

 

you .. carebear

 

 

 

You lose the argument, you just conceited defeat, not once did I say you have to run into the fight, I said being able to hide from it totally while watching TV in your apartment is the problem, from someone who abuses the same mechanic Im rallying against.

 

You say you dont care in a river crying manor and then say I can cry one for all you care. Sounds like you care, sounds like you just produced a river, sounds like I think youre sad and bad and everything wrong with gaming today, I say go back to CoD because people like you ruined that series, you can have it now, it's yours.

 

CoD is your game now, carebear tards like you made it the way it is, it was made for you.. ITS YOUR GAME - GO BACK TO IT Stop ruining mine with your pussy oh noes dont huht meh pixels mindset.

 

So again, you now have absolutely no argument and have to resort to stretching mine to a ridiculous point which it never stood for. This means you have exited the real argument and are no longer worth debating. I win, bounties should be permanent and as I said, only baddie carebears would disagree.

 

 

 

You just got sussed breh, called you out, you're bad and don't know how to play.. and you have no justification for your side of the argument besides waaaaaaah dont huht meh

 

I threw caps in, yea I dont like scrubs like you ruining game series because you cant handle it.. thats what it boils down to, you are weak minded and cant handle a quality game.. I dare you to go play the first 2 driver series games or anything before 2000, like I said, you are everything that is wrong with gaming today. Watered down bullsh*t for baddies who can't deal with not being good enough to see the endgame.

 

Feel free to direct your replies to this brick wall as I won't be reading your drivel any longer.

 

red-brick-wall-texture.jpg

 

You lost the fight by getting so worked up over it in the first place.

When you tards realize a bounty isnt the end of the world and not everyone chases them you will relax about the whole thing. The idea is if someone is around you, they have a reason to shoot you.. R* never imagined people would be so pussy they would make people chase them all over the map and hide from it... thus the 500$ med bill changes, to make you less afraid of getting killed.

 

R* never planned on the vast amount of sandy CoD vaginas there would be.

People hiding in their apartments is not the end of the world ether.

I don't bounty hunt. The payoff just isn't worth it to me to chase people down. If I run across one over $5k I'll pop them sometime, but I usually just leave them alone anyway.

 

That being said, I think it's sad to park in your apartment for 48 minutes because you don't want someone to collect. If I get a bounty I usually go out of my way to let someone get it ASAP so I don't get harassed.

Usully I get a bounty from someone who deosn't like being handled on for firing at me just for walking within their sight on the map. Generally, they put a "take that" bounty on me and it just ticks them off more when I don't seem to care. I usually let a friend collect it.

No body mess with the Big skull. Hardcore gamer in GTA online and has IRA buddies in real life. I mean look at his avatar. Everyone knows only real IRA members advertise the fact and spend all day arguing about video games on forums

 

Haven't seen that other wanna be revolutionary douche bag for a while either. You know guy avatar's him in his mums basement standing next to an upside down US flag wearing a balaclava? Soooo hardcore

Am I only one who's happy when the person I put bounty on changes sessions or hides in apartment? I don't like getting into player vs player wars (and yes before anyone tells me I am a massive fa**ot whose wife/mother frequently has sex with posters from games forums) and only ever put them on people who are annoying me so I'm more than happy if they f*ck right off - money well spent

I have a solution to tweak bounties.

 

When you're in your apartment or in a solo/private game, your bounty time freezes. Your bounty timer only lessens while you're outside of your apartment in a public game.

I got kicked out of 4 lobbies today because of a stupid 3k bounty a DEAD pedestrian set on me because I stole his ride... while I was trying to watch RSR on the TV.

 

Pathetic.

Well yeah, that's the only way this system makes any sense. But that'd be too logical I guess.

 

Next update: Staying in your apartment with a bounty makes you a Bad Sport.

Bounty hunters in any online game are the worst kind of people so the process is just being repeated here as you can all see.

Love it - if you like abusing the 2D map, try this one - fly to max altitude, bail out, immediately deploy you chute and tape down the LB & RB to keep your air brakes on the whole time.

 

You'll be in the air for over 10 mins, and your radar dot will be moving at what appears to be walking pace. People lose their minds trying to figure out where you are - when I did it, the little white dots throwing laps around my arrow eventually started killing each other - I just glided on home...

 

...then I camped there for another 20 mins or so till my bounty ran out. They had their chance...

One day I joined a random room and then a random guy set a bounty on my head while I never ever harmed anybody before. Then I left the game because I was tired. Am I the scumbag now?
