Anyone playing this game that's not a brainless homocidal maniac?

Do you want to know how I got these scars ?

[TeammateHelper]

Running away like I'm level one, I mean. I rarely kill anyone up front.

 

You'll know when you see me play.

I never attack anyone, but sometimes, if I'm in a randy mood, I'll beep a clown horn at them

Yet another whine thread. It's seriously getting harder and harder to feel sympathetic when you see people spewing the same garbage topic after topic, and thus making everyone have to make the same arguments again and again and again.

 

So I'll cut to the chase this time : This is GTAO, PvP is non-consensual, stop expecting the game to change its design for you, the majority doesn't feel the same way as you so start getting better at the game or carry on whining.

 

PS. I know you already went and chose the option "carry on whining". So whine away, it's only your tear ducts that you're upsetting here.

 

Oh the irony! That's one one of the whinyest post I've seen in this thread. It's not a case of getting better at the game. Some of us have no interest in mindlessly killing each other for hours at a time. It's hardly difficult to comprehend why some of us are bored and have no interest in engaging with some trigger happer internet Bruce Lee.

 

Ultimately, if you don't like it don't read it but to post a whining comment about whining posts is quite ridiculous. Hopefully your keyboard didn't get too wet from your tears.

 

 

Like I said, cry away. Flipping it around by using the lame duck "whining about whining argument" is not going to get your ideas for the game anywhere.

I am fine with the current status quo of the game since it's apparent that developers wanted the game to function as it does now. Besides, I learnt a long time ago that expecting the developers to do what the community wants is never going to happen. In the words of Ford, "if I listened to please the customers, I would have gotten them a faster horse". Devs will listen, but they always will prioritize their vision of the game first.

 

I never spawn kill, or trap players that aren't interested in pvp the second I see they aren't responding appropriately. I've been playing all sorts of PvP games, from strategy to FPS to the typical MMO format. I will always value a good/fun fight over easy kills or ganking.

 

I have humored other people's opinions and even suggested alternatives in great details to the current system by putting in place PVP/PVE servers so that everyone may play the way they want to without the risk of ruining each other's fun.

 

Yes, I don't see anything wrong with killing randomly because I'm a pvper. I like instigating fights all over the map and various situations because I find it fun. I generally save the PvE stuff for when my friends are online. I PK solo all the time so trust me when I say this, I genuinely don't care about picking fighting I am likely to lose. I will go after crews so I get outnumbered, and even if I end up losing overall I still got fun out of it.

 

Griefers : Love mass killing while having the advantage, no sportmanship nwhatsoever.

 

PvPers : Love killing and getting killed on even terms, will respect his opponent most of the time.

 

I know I came across quite narky in that post, but it's genuinely because I get tired of typing post like I am now trying to reconciliate both point of views and trying to show that not every PvPer is a bad apple. So yes, sometimes saying "stop crying, game is fine, get over it" seems like the easier option. Just tired of getting painted with the same brush all the time.

 

If you've ever played on other PvP games like in MMOs, then you will know that PvPers still engage in PvP activities. It's just that it isn't the main focus of our gameplay experience.

 

Yes, I will pass a few hours deathmatching in freeroam, then pass the next hour cruising, customizing cars and my avatar, going after stunt jumps, etc... most of us aren't braindead, just like most Pvers aren't either.

 

It's just that recent crop of 12yo players that arrived at the time of the "get tank at any level" glitch that are magnifying the divide in between playstyles. Add the hackers on top of that and you have yourself a perfect griefing sh*tstorm.

 

 

dude ya nailed it on the head with that last post!

[beat_savy_9]

Friends of mine pick fights with words or a medium smack to the back of the head, hardly ever do they start a fight with a shot gun to the belly

[Bodog999]

I'm a nice player dont kill everybody unless provoked and i have a tank i dont kill everybody on sight unless provoked i'm a nice guy if you dont kill me for no reason.

Welcome to Grand Theft Auto.

I love dickheads like you online, i try to only kill players with a bounty and get annoyed when other players target me simply because LOL GTA GUNS KILL so when somebody does i make it my personal mission in life to ensure they rage quit. The other day i was online and taking a casual drive down by Vespucci beach when two guys in the same crew decided i was a healthy target and sticky bombed my car before speeding off in some chrome Adder probably to find somebody else to kill, unknown to them i'm f*cking sh*thot with the sniper rifle so as soon as i respawned i targeted the fastly disapearing Adder and put my first bullet straight through the drivers head followed quickly was the passengers execution. Quickly i rang Lester and had him remove my map marker and made my way to a vantage point, i wait for my marker to re apear and unleash another round of sniper shots dispatching them both as quickly as they spawned. Long story short i'd killed both guys for a good 15 minutes without them even hitting me with a shot, then as one of my crew members joined the game i noticed the original sticky bomb killer left followed by his mate. Pussies.

so bored of reading posts like this.

 

"i never kill people in free roam... ...unless they kill me first... ...then i kill them over and over... ...until they 'rage quit'... ...because i'm so good at this game... ...and i post my story on a forum because i think it makes me sound tough..."

 

it doesn't, by the way. it just makes you sound like a person who take it too seriously that their 'toon' gets killed in a videogame.

 

you're somebody who is happy killing others, but outraged if someone does it to you.

 

you probably complain about 'griefers', but have just openly admitted to spawn-killing others.

 

tiresome

Agree completely. Its funny how you only ever hear stories of them "owning" the troll and not the other way around. I also laugh at the fact this forum is full of so called 'man of the people' hero types but I can never find them online. Boring.

 

Probably because from afar it's hard to distinguish someone defending someone and a bunch of people killing each other. No context.

 

That's why I prefer the much more obvious running away method. Not only do people spot you being a wuss on the map, it lets people know the whoever killed me could be a worth opponent. I'm like 100% wuss.

 

em there are no words except..at least you're honest

If I set out with the intention of doing something in free roam (selling a car, mostly), then I usually try to avoid everyone. With only sixteen people on a map that huge, it isn't hard. If they deliberately hunt you down to start stuff? Be prepared. Know good places to stop and get cover to your advantage. In auto-aim, a decent map knowledge enabling you to see your opponent first will nearly always win out.

 

That said, there will always those idiots who catch you unawares, kill you, and race off thinking they can get away retribution free. I always take note of their name and highlight them. I might not chase them down straight away, but I will get my revenge. It's best to wait for them to let their guard down and use my special trolling tactic. If they're in a shop/Ammunation, I'll find their car, sticky bomb it and drive off. They jump in, speed away and BOOM! (because almost no-one checks their cars for stickies). These people generally aren't the brightest, so they call for insurance straight away. You get there first, sticky the car again, and it's oh so sweet. By then, they usually get the message.

 

Basically, ALWAYS sticky their car. If you're involved in a firefight on foot trying to get them, at some point they'll make a beeline for their car. When you're constantly blowing up their property, they slowly learn. I've done this so often and I've never had the dunce cap or been put in a losers lobby and have always collected my good sport bonus.

 

Anyway, I'm not really one to talk. One of my favourite things is to snipe and indiscriminately kill from a building opposite the Customs in North Los Santos. The chaos I've caused is hilarious, especially if you can pick off the driver just before they enter or as they leave the garage. Oh, and the number of times people have come looking for me and can't work out I'm ON TOP of the building. Jeez.

[blowtorchrepair]

perhaps an online orgy mode is needed for players like the OP? It could be a mode where there are no guns, no clothes... and just a lot of SIM tea-bagging going on.

 

meanwhile, the rest of us will be in freemode...

[walsted86]

Just join free aim lobbies. People are a little more intelligent there. Sometimes i just taxi people around. I drive up to them, honk at them, and they just get in, instead of killing me...
