The Worst Of Rockstar Logic

1) Police

2) Police

3) Police

4) Jobs covering the map

5) Walking into and starting jobs on foot while you're trying to fight with others on the mean streets of LS

6) Giving advance copies of the game to glitchers/modders/hackers (iStupidTeddyBear, DomISDumb)

7) Payouts for jobs

8) Allowing passive mode players to pick up crates with no way to fight for them

9) Always finding ways to make us pay more and more of our money for stupid stuff (utilities and mechanic fees)

10) Telling us to report hackers, modders, glitchers, and then featuring them in their own lobbies for special events

Rooftop Rumble doesn't make sense any more.

 

In the original version, there was a narrative - albeit a very simplistic one. The FIB had chosen a secure location to hold a briefcase containing sensitive information. Their orders were to hold there until the pickup arrived. We, the players, were tasked with interrupting that pickup, clearing out the car park and fleeing with the case. The FIB then sent men to try and retrieve the package before you could deliver it to your drop off.

 

It doesn't really make sense now though. The FIB are securing a car park because... reasons. And you have to kill them all because... you know... reasons again. And once you've done that the package just appears outside of the car park like magic, sometimes a block away, because MAGICAL REASONS. Once you've got away, however, the FIB argue that it's not really worth chasing you because it looks like you really want that briefcase and, well, they feel a little guilty about trying to stop you now.

 

I mean I suppose you could argue that they're securing the location and awaiting delivery of the case, and once the driver hears the gunfire he tries to drive away, but then why did they think it safe enough for one man to drive the case around the city yet they needed like twenty men to secure the car park?

Fair points indeed. That "mission" is a total fail from original, till now, and forever. Unless they manage to put it on the roof, with the briefcase...oh wait that's High priority case.

 

What's the deal with Rooftop Rumble and The Parking Garage? The names are mixed up. The Parking Garage should be RR; RR should be The Parking Garage.

 

OT: 1) R* lets you wear gloves with sweaters but not with suits or any other clothes!

2) Cops hit you while chasing someone else… you instantly get a wanted level and get shot.

3) Teammates can shoot out your tires in missions.

4) NPC drivers cut you off at every possible opportunity, only to change back to their original lane if they miss.

5) Even if you're an extremely high level crime lord, you still get called by petty thugs like Gerald and Lamar or small time con artists like f*cking Simeon…

6) Brucie. His product suuuuucks!

These guys, strung out junkie bikers:

 

 

Shoot just as good as men trained for war:

 

 

 

Because f*ck logic, right?

[hyperar]

Gives different levels of mission "completion", encourages you to achieve Gold level on missions to unlock a trophy, shows clips that tell the story on each mission, most missions are timed, clips count on timer. f*ckING BULLSHIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIT, this forces you to do every mission at least twice, f*cking f*ckers

[Sir Michael]

Oh, you're stealing a car for a Simeon mission? Let's send 2-3 cars of Ballas and Vagos to assault you, just for them to respawn after you kill them, making the total between 5 and 10...

 

Mission objective: "Take out [enemy NPC gang]." Enemies respawn after killing them. The objective was to kill them all R*. You're drunk.

[incog]

the fact that my license plate can't say T1TSTABR when the game directly deals with things like meth, hookers, cross dressing men waking up f*@cked up in the middle of nowhere, etc. not to mention all the cursing.

 

the best thing is since it got reported, I can't have a personal plate period now because there is no way to change it.

 

love ya R*

I can't stress this sh*t enough. infinite/too much spawning, although it makes sense in free mode makes some missions unrealistic as sh*t.

 

Dry Docking, the one where you crack the safe and drop the stuff off at the marina has got to be one of the worst missions in the game for this. Doing this mission solo is extremely hard because the guys just keep on spawning while your cracking the safe, I actually did complete it solo once after I managed to block the doors with Mesa's, which took ages. They should make it so that once you kill all the guys you have a small window of time to crack the safe before they start coming again, when doing it solo the window should be 30 seconds, with 2 players 20 seconds, with 3 10 seconds and with 4 the window should be 5 seconds. That would make a lot more sense than to have them coming nonstop.

 

With the simeon car theft missions I just go through all the alleys that the Ballas have a hard time traversing since they're terrible drivers.

[Hereiamhereibe]

In a game called Grand Theft Auto, you have to buy everything

You win!

 

But for reals though what about that random car that will go from 60 to 0 INSTANTLY, just so you smash into this immovable car sitting in the middle of road to stop your crossing.

 

Who da fun does this IRL? Noone? Thoughtso.

[Hunter54711]

If you zoom into something it gets louder because logic.

 

The criminal was last seen in Vespuchi Beach? Better check some random alley across the city!

 

(Time go really fast) Apparently your charcter spends like an hour in a gun shop or like 3 hours in the clothes stores.

 

Cops instantly knows you stole a Simeon Car

 

Sunglasses cost 5,000

 

Trolls: Good Sport you've earned $2,000 (which can pay for half a pack of gum in this game) Get dissconected from unknown network error? Piece of sh*t bad sport

 

Songs last for an hour and a half in ingame time

 

Almost just got blown away from a shotgun, Drink some Cola and you're fine.

[Simply Logic]

The Psychic f*cking police helicopter that can keep up with a Lazer and can see thru solid objects, and instant spawning in front of you.

it's not a psychic helicopter, its a sh*t map.

We all know Rockstar have pretty daft logic, but what do YOU think the worst is?

The foot movement.

[Mik73]

Every game ever:

 

Start game

Pick game parameters (online, private/public session etc)

Pick character

Join/Start game

 

GTA Online:

Start game - Load into Single Player

Start Online "invite only" Session - Load into Online (if you select "load online" while game loads you don't get to pick your character...what????!?!!?!)

If you do "Select Character" prior to starting Online...guess what: FREEMODE BY DEFAULT.

Pick new/alternate charcter

Dumped into Freemode - More loading

Quit Freemode - Load Single Player *again*

Start Online "invite only session"

Load Online

Play

 

Unbelievable..

 

I should start GTA to a main menu

Pick Online - Invite Only

Pick character

Play

 

Gaming figured this out over 30 years ago. I've said this before and I'll say it until I die...this completely belies Rockstar's "British Software Publisher" roots. Every game I've ever played going back to Psygnosis days (maybe earlier) created by British Software teams has somehow managed to completely ignore sensible, logical, rational, gaming convention when it comes to UI, save games, checkpoints, quality of life stuff...you name it. It's like they go out of their way to make things more difficult for their players for no logical reason whatsoever. And it's always the British guys. Why why why???? GRRRRR.

The logic gets even worse when you are in an Invite Only Session, Join an Invite from your Phone, get the Player is in Session Message, then get Booted back to a Public Session in Freeroam (and can chew up 2 - 3 mins or more in Loading between all of this)...

 

Also do not get me started on the Logic of having a 30 Player Featured Deathmatch in the current Double GTA$ and Double RP Playlist when the Target Score is bugged so if it is set to 60 or 80, it will revert to 10 instead (the default for these 30 Player DM's is 80). If R* are unaware of this they must be completely incompetent.

last night i saw another example of how bad npc drivers can be.

after getting a special crate near the great ocean highway, i try to get a car and a 3 car collision happens.

they don't seem to know where the break is sometimes.

[NearExpansion]

Cars after missions complete parked in stupid places, especially after Lester and Martin missions.

 

Tear Gas - never use it, I don't want it back when I refresh my ammo, I deliberately threw it all away.

 

Snacks have different prices but refresh at the same rate - no logic there.

 

Hats that disappear and re-appear getting in and out of some cars.

 

Bruce and Dom on your phone - just f*ck off, wish I could delete these contacts.

 

Mors Mutual - all our operators are busy... what???

 

You cannot pick up prostitutes in this car - why not? Prostitutes f*ck men and women the same way

 

Tits on show offline, tits covered up online.

This happened last night. I wondered why the dm ended so fast.

 

Blows my mind that they still rush things into the game at this point. Theyve had over a year of adding things into gta online, youd think by now they could get an update 100% correct? Nope.

Might as well bust a few things that worked properly before. Cuz no one will notice right?

I've got a 5 Star wanted level once cause I looked, let me repeat that "LOOKED" at the Import/Export car that a friend stole, he got no stars I got 5 just for looking at it.

[mmm chocolate]

Just came across this trying to connect to one of the 'Featured Playlists'

 

1. They advertise a double RP double Cash weekend of Playlists.

 

2. They make it so the only way to JOIN instead of hosting your own, is to click a button on the first loading screen when turning on the game. This option is on the screen for only a few seconds before it disappears.

 

3. You can try to join a playlist from your phone, but theres no guarantee youre getting in a featured one.

 

4. They give you the option choose it from the Playlists in the start menu, but then you end up hosting one.

 

Bonus gripe: they advertise NEW 30 player lobbies...then they consistently put you in a lobby by yourself. So. Damn. Annoying.

Still! songs take an 1 1/2 hour in game!

[hugh750]

tonight i tried hosting a featured playlist and i got about 6 players to join a deathmatch and just after i started it everyone left!

[LahTigre]

That would be a very bad idea and far too boring, the map is much too large and there are way too few players on it, youd never find anyone, lol

I disagree, only because people do tend to congregate and live in the same few areas, and also that most players can't keep "quiet" for more than five minutes in this game, so there would certainly be plenty of red dot showing up at any given time.

 

It also allows the more aggressive players to find each other, while letting passive players to blend in or stay off the radar. Then the need for controversial features like passive mode would be nonexistent

[Rented]

Drivers that are escaping/chasing you - Best example is the lorry in 'Ticket to Elysium' Super cars can't catch up to that magical tanker(just like most other NPC driven vehicles).

[DocDro]

As of right now: Slowly transforming a fun game of crime and cars into an annoying military-heist-themed FPS...

 

Don't get me wrong, I love the heists we got in SP and I love the FPs mode, but I never would have imagined they would get so military. Seriously seems like GTA is moving into spin-off territory.

 

Need a new series. Grand Scheme War, or maybe Grand Plan Massacre or perhaps even War Fight Money Steal, or Battle of Duty: Field of War $ (money sign).
