Fan-Made Rockstar Throwback Jobs

[Ai®a©ob®a]

We recently took a look at a fan-made GTA Online playlist of created Jobs inspired by scenes from The Warriors and asked fans to share any Jobs they may have made in homage to favorite films or even our own games of yesteryear. For Rockstar fans feeling nostalgic, here’s a roundup of a few player-made Creator Jobs that came to our attention that have either been made in direct tribute to or are otherwise certainly reminiscent of classic Rockstar titles like Manhunt, Midnight Club, Smuggler’s Run and more. Check ‘em out and feel free to bookmark them for a play.

 

ALL EYES ON YOU

Carcer City by Zayvorne (Team Deathmatch)

By day, Textile City appears to be a colorful tapestry of fabrics and commerce. As darkness descends and the rain starts to fall, the lawless streets of this trader's square suddenly run red with bloodshed. Small arms weapons are gathered near the center of this map, but venturing further out to the eastern fringe you'll discover a few hidden surprises to aid you in putting on quite the show for viewers at home.

 

MANHUNT by staggeredguitar (Deathmatch)

Staggeredguitar invites players to "stab, bat and brutalize in this close quarters Manhunt style map". The narrow alleys and tight corners in downtown Rancho cement an unnerving atmosphere where you find yourself having to make careful choices about when and where to climb in pursuit of your prey. Touching down in someone's backyard, you may find yourself overrun by an enemy lying in wait or encounter a Molotov cocktail crashing down upon you, leaving no place to avoid the flames. If you enjoy this one, be sure to also check out Staggered's other Manhunt nods, MANHUNT (URBAN BEATDOWN) and MANHUNT (PIER PRESSURE).

 

DOWN & DIRTY

 

Smuggler's Run by Ackidapacki (Land Race)

“Drug smugglers are moving a larger shipment of product that has arrived in Paleto Bay. The thing is: the buyer is in Los Santos. First car there gets the payday of their lives.” There are four vehicle classes available for this endurance testing jaunt - Muscle, Off-Road, SUVs and Vans. While the Race begins on the smoothly paved west Highway 1 near Paleto Bay, things suddenly take a rural turn via a sharp left angle leading back into the Paleto Forest. Shooting straight up to the zigzags of the Chiliad Mountain State Wilderness, you'll find many opportunities to send an opponent spiraling off a hillside into an unforgiving ravine below. As you return to the civilization of Elysian Island and Banning you will literally smash through the gates towards the finish line but be mindful of the last few turns along the off-road trail in Rancho. You may be far from the northwest wilderness but you're just a sharp cut-off away from eating dirt.

Smuggler's Run by giftedhanz19 (Capture)

This dry and barren stretch of desert wedged between the West Vinewood Hills and the Zancudo River pits "two teams to fight over an already occupied bag of goods", per creator giftedhanz19. By "already occupied" he means you will be interrupting a transaction in progress and the local yokels will not take too kindly to two groups of interlopers invading from the northern and southern parts of the map. Use all manner of off-road vehicle to make your escape but avoid the open roads as that will make it far easier for greedy pursuers to close the distance and snatch back the goods you've stolen.

 

BRING THE PAYNE

 

Max Payne 3 by GroveSTHome (Team Deathmatch)

If you spent countless hours battling it out within the posh corporate hallways and spacious lobbies of Branco Headquarters or exchanging gunfire along the rooftops of Club Moderno in Max Payne 3, this Created Job located in the attractively modern and remote confines of the Kortz Center offers up some of the best elements from your favorite Bullet Time shooter. Whether you're posted up in one of the many exterior stairwells, doing strategic sweeps with the Buzzard Attack Chopper or creeping through the hedge maze you'll have more than enough ample opportunities to keep the blood flowing and the bullets flying.

 

Hold: Gang Wars by Hiroshio (Capture)

Also channeling the spirit of Max Payne 3 Multiplayer is a clever Capture by Creator Hiroshio, who seems to have a clear vision for this intense West Vinewood to Chamberlain Hills battle. Hiroshio states, "Your initiation into the gang consists of stealing. We've gotten word that multiple shipments of weapons and cash have been delivered. Steal these shipments and drop them off at our HQ. These shipments will be heavily guarded. Our gang members don't know you yet so they will shoot you on sight. Also beware of rival gang members. We're not the only ones who know about this." Los Santos may be quite a bit northwest of São Paulo but the challenging bag placement and vicious NPC Gang factions will make you start fiending for pain killers in no time.

 

ROCKSTAR SoCAL CLUB

 

Midnight Club by Geordieboy89 (Land Race)

This large circuit around the city, appropriately set in the dead of night, contains many strategic jumps and potential explosions. Starting out in centrally located La Mesa, you make your way east from Murietta Heights past several landmark locations and end up going as far south as Elysian Island, rounding the trek back to the finish line near Los Santos International Airport. The course itself is littered with wreckage and has a few ramps that are mandatory for clearance to the next checkpoint. For two decidedly different Race experiences, switch to motorbikes on your second playthrough and watch out for those unforgiving highway road signs.

 

Midnight Club by Licky106 (Land Race)

This pedal to the metal, tire tread destroyer starts out in Rockford Hills, cutting a seismic fault line through West Vinewood, Burton, Richman, GWC and will even turn a few snooty heads near the Golfing Society if you opt to run this course during the daylight hours. Along this circuit, you'll encounter no less than four deceptively placed, razor sharp right turns that are specifically designed to promote car-on-car collision. If you are approaching one of those said turns amongst an armada of fellow racers, it may behoove you to let them race ahead directly into the turn and then nimbly skate by the twisted pileup unscathed.

 

SCHOOL DAZE

 

 

Bullworth by festivecave (Team Deathmatch)

It should come as no surprise that a Social Club member who is enrolled in the Bullworth Alumni Rockstar Crew would endeavor to recreate the campus hijinks of Bully in GTA Online. With the campus at the University of San Andreas Los Santos serving as the backdrop, you can duke it out with your most contentious classmates to prove who's the BMOC.

 

Bully by HSDUDE1996 (Deathmatch)

With plenty of melee weapons in plain view and only a few firearms scattered sparsely around this one, it'll be a recess-style mad dash to gain the upper hand in this chaotic DM. Lure opponents out to the center of the ULSA track-and-field stadium to show them the grass isn't the only thing getting mowed down today (you may also notice a cameo appearance from the Mower - a little nod to Jimmy Hopkins' many labored hours of detention).

 

[EnclaveSGT]

I like you.

[Ai®a©ob®a]

I like you.

[CrazyRay]

We TOTALLY needed a re-post of crap from Rockstar's website

[Ai®a©ob®a]

Thank you so much for posting this, This is very intresting

Welcome as always!

[Ninja_Gear]

Very wow.

[MajorVienna]

I don't like Rockstar's policy of putting rubbish on the news page every now and then.

[Xyn]

Of course, since these missions aren't paying out $75k & 5000RP, they're rubbish.

How predictable.

[theNGclan]

This is the kind of stuff I like to see.

[Ai®a©ob®a]

& At least Funwm2 made a decent mission worth that payout R* hasn't even come close to making one like that.

[Xyn]

I wasn't cheering that mission on nor the people who bash every verified job...quite the contrary.

[havingfunz]

Of course, since these missions aren't paying out $75k & 5000RP, they're rubbish.

How predictable

Have you even tried those missions (FOS V4)? If not, I think you should refrain your opinion, they are actually a lot more fun than all the crap R* has put into the game.

I know i was just making a comment on how he makes a better job than most other created jobs and R* jobs i've played

[kjahcleveland]

I need to get on those TDMs.

if fun means a sh*tload of overpowered enemies in a small area, then, i dont know where im going with this

Yea well I enjoy the idea of finishing a mission with teamwork where it is actually a challenge and teamwork is necessary, not because of missions like drying dock and stock & shares, where the reason I need a partner in the mission is so that someone can keep shooting the annoying respawning enemies while I try to unlock the safe...........

[Killbook]

I somehow won and I didn't even intend to re-create a scene from max payne, haha. I just made it and was hoping it'd get verified. Alot of people liked it but it honestly had nothing to do with Max Payne. But hey, I'll take this award. Doubt anyone will play any of these jobs though.

I call bullsh*t on the "fun" bit; if this mission paid $4k & 500RP no one would touch it and it's creator would get insulted so hard even his grandmother would feel offended.

There's nothing to that mission except every f*cking enemy NPC in the game blocking your way, there's no "why" behind the missions...and it's obvious that they were only added so the payout could be maxed. The mission is dull & lifeless in of itself; the only reason are playing it is for the payout that soothes their avarice.

 

"No Hay Bronca" & "Death From Above" are challenging; yet I don't see anyone giving them praise. Gee, wonder why....

 

R* can put any "crap" they want; it's their game. Not yours. You merely bought a license for private-use.

[Biohazard Abyss]

Truth.

 

Every low-paying mission in GTAO gets trashed by the community. The only reason people called FOS V3 and 4 "fun" was because of the payout.

[Man-Django]

Got about 10 Red Dead Redemption themed DMs.

[Coin]

 

Which one is it?

 

 

Hold: Gang Wars is his.

Gang wars. It was a capture job.

Miss Coin pointed it out to me.

 

I don't really care for Capture but since it was made by you i'll take a look at it.

 

It's sad there are tons of decent jobs that will never be verfied because R* will verfy anything as long as it has "Jumps & Mini Guns" in them.

I guess you can say that because, from a previous thread I remember you thought spending $250 US on cash cards in one go was no big deal, but some of us like to use our $$ on more relevant things in life than a game with glitched missions, game freezes, console freezes, and no decent content since GTAO was released in October. I have nothing against investing time or money into an entertainment, but when it doesn't provide any reasonable value in return, the game is basically garbage in my opinion. And well if R* are happy to put crap into the game, I'm content with not investing any more cash than my initial purchase price of the game .
