Adder needs buffing up a bit?

[BSEANO]

**ALTERING, NOT BUFFING UP, MY BAD

 

Surely I'm not the only person who thinks this?

 

If I am, hear me out. I mean, despite the slight difference in weight or whatever, I really don't think the difference in top speed and acceleration to the Entity (mainly acceleration), which has 300 horsepower LESS, and almost half the engine size, is enough. The fact that so many other cars in the game, even sports cars, are almost equal in speed to the Adder is just ridiculous to me, but I digress...

 

This mainly bugs me because the Legendary Motorsport site advertises the Adder as 3 seconds for 0-60, and the Entity is 3.5 seconds, yet the Entity accelerates quicker? Strange.

If you want to compare it to their real life counterparts (I know someone will), the Veyron is 2.5 seconds, and the Agera R is 2.9 seconds.

 

Don't get me wrong, the Entity will probably still be marginally quicker around a circuit for most racers, but if the Adder has boosted speed and acceleration, it'll obviously lose more traction, making it harder to drive, but rewarding once you learn. I actually think the Adders grip is really good at the moment, so this won't be a huge sacrifice really.

 

The downfall on this would be that all highway races would probably have to be locked to Adders only, like the Sanchez races, which could get boring. Then again those tracks almost put me to sleep anyway.

 

I'm probably alone on this, but I made this thread to find out.

 

Inb4 OP has buttsecks with the Adder

It should take half a sticky to blow it up.

[The Angel King]

I could understand buffing the Vacca or a few others...but the Adder.......NO....just NO.

[JohnGazman]

The only modification the Adder needs is to have Chrome paint removed as an option.

[BSEANO]

So much for hearing me out...

Why buff the Adder when you can buff some of the overlooked cars in the Super class?

[Terrazi Terrajin]

No it's ugly, replace it with the Yakuza stinger in an update and make everyone happy.

[Stephen]

I was surprised it didn't come with the retractable spoiler, like you would see in a real Veyron. It would be simple to implement it, using the D-pad as you would with a convertible hardtop.

[GTA-Freak-Vi]

No , I dont think the adder needs buffing, its fine the way it is. Cars like Vacca(should have a been in the sports class) and Bullet need more buffing.

The bullet honestly feels like it's a high-end muscle car. they should either bring it down to that level or buff it incredibly.

Lol, I know right.

On a real Veyron, the air brake is activated and retracted automatically based on the car's speed.

The infernus needs a handling and top speed boost

[The Angel King]

So much for hearing me out...

You made an outrageous suggestion and wonder why people won't hear you out.......not trying to be rude, but use some logic and common sense.

I agree. I am ok with the handling now though.

 

@J.Belfort. I Like your quote in your sig.

Outrageous how, exactly?

[Terrazi Terrajin]

The Rhino Tank needs a speed boost so it can gain on Adders and then smash them into pulp using the turret.

Outrageous because the Adder doesn't need buffing?

 

It's already been noted in this thread that if any Super's need buffing, it's the Vacca or the Bullet. Possibly the Infernus too, since no-one seems to use that much either.

Outrageous is your opinion. How about YOU use some common sense to recognize that. And also apply some logic to realize that what I am saying actually makes sense.

If you've ever driven both of these cars in TDU2, you'll know that the Adder feels incredibly underpowered in GTA.

My god. Please tell me you didn't just use TDU2 as a precedent.

[Vec]

No. Buff the ones that really need it

[darkwar854]

Adder needs a nerf. I say less grip fully modded.

[Muirenn]

Didn't you read?

 

OP is suggesting a greater trade-off, not a straight buff.

[wolfp212]

In races 50% of Adder owners = ramming trolls (100% if they happen to choose pink or chrome as a color), so no, I don't think feeding the trolls with a more powerful car is a good idea.

Yes.. whats wrong with that? I'm not using that 100% as the basis, I'm just pointing it out.

I think reduced handling would be a decent deterrent for that. Or it would at least mean they have a greater risk of f*cking themselves up.

[CarimboHanky]

as long as i can blow them with just 1 sticky bomb, they can buff all they want that ugly PoS

Perhaps that it's a terrible basis to go on at all. TDU2 is one of the worst games i've ever had the misfortune to play.

 

If you really want to try and equate the Entity and Adder with their real-life "counterparts" - bearing in mind that the Adder and Entity are based on, not carbon copies of, real cars. Ergo, they need not have the same performance as the counterparts they're based on - then at least compare them with a game that actually put some effort into it's car physics development.

The op has spent to much time with franklins or Jimmy bong.

 

The cars that need tuning is the bullet, vacca and maybe the infurnus.
