I am not interested in your "look how badass I am"-stories on how you started it. I'm just interested in have you ever started a free roam war?

 

The poll should speak for itself.

Yeah. In the billionaire days that was mostly what I did. I don't do it anymore, mostly I'm with my crew or playing solo.

I started one not too long ago. It started with one guy trying to claim my bounty. Funny how it can escalate.

Several with my crew...usually around the airport....its great to look on the map and see everyone in the session in your battle, or in route to it...

This is exactly why I don't get the whole "poor me, I was just getting a haircut" or "SOB killed me when I came out of LSC" mentality.

This game takes place in a virtual gangwar environment, where around every corner lurks a potential thread, be it another player, cops, Sentinel Guy, or your mom.

Those who enter expecting to ride a BMX bike, meet pals for a cruise, or buy clothes and are upset when another player dispenses them simply don't understand the difference between a Free Roam session and Invite Only.

So hecks, yahr... i start 'em, I walk into 'em, I go lookin' for 'em, and often I'm the pony in the middle gettin' rode by everyone around me, but that's what the game is about.

Am I wrong? ;)

Walked into it, participated in it, never started it. I enjoy more stealthy tactics and trolling than starting a giant fight.

 

I guess the one I did unintentionally start was when I stickied (which I call "ticketed", throwing a sticky on someone's car with no intention of wrecking the car, just to see the reaction) someone's windshield and then went into my apartment. Rather than going away, they just stood outside on the top of their car in passive. I then put a $1K bounty on them.

 

Eventually 3-4 other players come by, destroy the car (mission accomplished and I didn't even have to do it) and then proceed, for 15-20 minutes, to throw ev-er-y-thing they had at this player in passive....with a $1K bounty. The other players were wasting each other, destroying their cars, throwing RPGs and stickies and generally costing themselves a fortune for a $1K bounty.

 

It was one of the dumbest, funniest things I've ever seen, and it went on and on and all across the city.

 

Sometimes I do create situations to make for good apartment TV, but that was one of the best ones.

If I don't start one myself, my crew members will.

 

Free Mode wars are the key to maximum fun.

One of the best ways to start them is if you get a bounty on your head and you go running of find somewhere to hide so they go swarming to get you but end up killing each other instead :)

Heard a bunch of kids on the mic. Went to kill them. Started a war that went across the whole Northern End of the city.

 

Now I can't really afford it with my extreme saving for the new DLC

In a free aim lobby, I blew up someone's car when they were doing the selling cars glitch. Then my friend and I tanked everyone to make everyone mad. PVP war everywhere. Basically ended up with my friend and I standing on a roof air thrusting in passive mode while a quarter of the lobby was in tanks trying to kill us.

Best session ever

I used to save up money, until I heard there won't be any actual new apartments. The cars look like sh*t, the motor looks like sh*t, I won't be wearing the palette swaps, I have enough money for the guns, so I'm fine with just 80k for now.

 

Got the cars I want.

 

 

So I'm just going around and have fun with the crew, starting free roam wars, making people thirsty for money by putting 9k bounties on our heads on the train, etc.

Never start moshpits with a tank. it kills the competitivity, toning the fight down several notches when other people also get tanks and the rest don't get to participate.

Out of the 5, only 3 have been confirmed to be in existing ones. They probably didn't even know the names of the other 2. Only a new interior.

 

So yeah, from the 700k I have only 80 left. Because I decided to have fun, and start free roam wars so I lost a lot of money by dying too. Or I join them and lost money too cus I died.

it usually starts when one or two dots appear then other players see and get involved, at the end the whole lobby gets involved and then cowards have enough and run away, I used to start wars when I had billions. yesterday I started one with 3 dots when I throw an airstrike at them.

No issue with Free Roam wars whatsoever, quite fun to start also. Pull out Heavy Sniper (Minigun to really annoy people), start shooting at every white dot you can see...snowball effect.

I hope for everyone starting here they don't go crawl to their tank / jet when they're about to lose the battle though?

I don't own a tank. Used a tank 3 times at most but it's ridiculously boring. I can't fly that well so no jet for me!

I used to have a TankDust collector on my old character. Only used it for Rooftop Rumble once while I was bored.

Started one without firing a shot lol. Had a $9k bounty and was trolling over the city in a chopper, following the roads gaining a tail, led him to another who killed him, then a third came over, then led them all a couple blocks to LSC where there were two more. Hey presto, war at the mod shop, reverse diplomacy at its finest

All of mine start off innocently enough. Looking for armored car... Specified vehicle, bounty, or someone drives too close to me, without warning, and the next thing you know...

They're so hungry for money in GTAO lol, they will do about anything just for some money. xD

I like it when you're in a lobby with everyone spread out minding their own business. Then you and an other player get into a battle and before you know almost the entire lobby has ran across the map to join in the fun.

Recently I've started hanging back and sniping from a distance, but I'm at my happiest right in the middle of the sh*t storm with a bounty on my head.

Balls the the wall...
