The Worst Of Rockstar Logic

[Razar]

Using the option "Remove Spoiler" actually produces more downforce on the Obey Omnis/Lampadati Tropos, while the stock (legit) spoiler doesn't.

successfully kill everysingle thiefs who robbed your warehouse and none of them managed to escape

Still can't even recover 1 crate and all it left was just your tears

Adds clothes & accessories and yet you can't wear them however you want... "Not compatible with your current outfit"

 

And this...

 

 

 

The cops and the wanted level in this game has to be the worst and most hated R* logic ever...

Tell me about it...

 

[DentureDynamite]

-Daily Objectives that are unnecessarily hard which can risk of your hard-earned streak being reset (e.g. Capture, LTS, Kill Players, Collect Bounties, Deathmatches, Rally Races), and have appeared way too often every time you log into GTA Online.

 

-Adversary Modes. Basically no one even plays them at all yet R* constantly adds them as if it was more popular than Contact Missions and Survival.

 

-Unable to steal DLC vehicles from traffic, they always kick you out from it the moment you enter inside. And even if you did, you can't store it, much less sell it.

 

-R* allowing hackers to run rampant on servers, mainly on the PC version, instead of banning them.

 

^^ Adding to the above:

 

[Daily Objectives] - Requiring participation in a specific "Normal" Deathmatch without any means of specifying that exact type in Quick Jobs. Same thing with Captures (no means of specifying a Capture - Raid or Capture - Hold, etc. without hosting it yourself). Then when you do select something (LTS), it dumps you into a completely different job type (heist).

 

[Hackers] - R* works hard to identify and instantly ban anyone spawning money bags, but doesn't give a foot about the ridiculously easy way of identifying and banning people with modded accounts (level 8000s, etc.)

 

[General priorities] - Spends dev time creating a trivial game-within-a-game and then fixing its bugs (see below), while numerous long-standing, well-known bugs with game play (graphical issues, daily objectives, heists, etc. cause lockups/reboots, failed heists, and lost rewards):

rockstar logic: give players the Bahama Mamas t'shirt and motivate them to "get the party started" without opening the place where the party takes place!

No offense, and I mean this whole heartedly (especially to everyone who want these places open); but what the f*ck do you think you'll be able to do inside the club? Drink? Stand around? Get bored and then start complaining about not being able to get inside another inconsequential building?

 

A very good point--some form of unique, practical use needs to be attached to them, such as the way convenience stores can be robbed, etc.

 

But(!) that said, more open interiors at least enhances the feeling of a real world, as opposed to the fake Hollywood-set building exteriors comprising most of the current GTA Online map. I have a hunch R* has more unreleased, fully decked-out interiors than we think they do. They obviously don't have to open every building interior; but even 20-30 buildings of various sizes would make a big difference in sense of depth and would allow a greater variety of PvP combat, IMO--such as staircase fights in some of the shorter skyscrapers (I always have a lot of fun with that scenario in the TV Station of BF3's Sharqi Peninsula). Right now, the vast majority of PvP combat is open street- or air-based.

 

Other than avoiding potential abuse by player glitches, there is no legitimate reason why R* can't also ditch the entry/exit animations for our apartments/garages, and use REAL, working entrances, staircases, and elevators in buildings, etc. Player and vehicle tracking shouldn't require any animations (heck, you can just fly under a bridge in an Air Race like "Heli River" and GTA Online knows about it).

 

The PC, PS4, and XBox One have the hardware, RAM, and fast enough Internet to handle all the above, plus extras like animals (they spawn and despawn like everything else in the game). Heck, even ancient games like Quake and Return to Castle Wolfenstein with microscopic amounts of RAM and CPU power (compared to today's systems) had functional, user-operated elevators and cable cars, etc.

Lets you buy cargo, makes you steal it even though you "bought" the cargo.

 

Selling 111 crates magically fits inside 3 brickades.

 

 

[hugh750]

accidentally tapping the bumper of a cop car gets you wanted and the cops try to murder you.

[hugh750]

the casino has a "opening soon" sign and it's been three years and it's still not open.

[hellfury66]

OK I got a few things to list about r*s stupid logic

1) they add an event to steal the most cars right. but heres the catch you get a 1 star wanted level every time you steal one just to try winning the challenge. so instead of winning you get shot gunned in the face just for even trying.

2) r* adds submarines but they don't bother adding any fish or whales under water in gtao.so why bother adding in submarines in the first place!

 

 

3) as much as I like both the gargoyle and cliffhanger I hate the fact that both bikes are able to stoppie and handle like the sports bikes in this game. REALLY a chopper and a hill climber/bobber should not handle like that or even do stoppie at all!! But as the idiots at rock star likes to say in their heads (who gives a sh#t about logic any ways when you can have fun making a lot money. and breaking the game even further) and doing nothing about it at all but making there fan base even more angry at them. Any way rant over!

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?

 

Totally agree. This is what I thought as well. They just change it for the heck of it.

 

Anyway, the GTAO mission design team never make any sense.

 

Seriously, missions like Titan of a Job, Los Santos Connection, High Priority Case are unlocked at level as early as 24, while missions like Trash Talk is unlocked at level over 70...

The worst change even worse logically than rr is to Coveted.

 

Originally you brought the container to Madrazos lockup which is up the road from Madrazzos real house. Not his side b!tches house whom you normally frequent the one Michael destroys in Sp.

 

After the change you bring it somewhere else but an attack helicopter is sent from Madrazzos real house.

 

Lol why would Madrazzo hire us to steal a container for him yet also send mercenaries from his house to kill us.

 

Retarded.

 

 

That is one to one the text datsaintfain uses in his rockstar logic. And is not the only one from this topic. So now I know where his "fans" post to give him the good stuff ^^

[fw3]

Hard to pick just one:

• climbing up rock faces and falling... falling... falling...

• cops not arresting players, like in every other GTA game, but killing players for taking a Snapmatic photo of them or walking into a police car by accident.
• forcing me to engage in melee against another player, who is too close, when I'm trying to shoot them.
• snacks.

• cooldown times for things like Pegasus, Mechanic, CEO vehicles, and Free Roam events.
• the inability to buy ALL clothing, not just gender specific.
• "Checking your message for profanity."
• Armored vehicles with glass windows.
• Cell phone is always on and available to all contacts all the time.

Seriously, I could go on for another hour on this... there's just too much and too many to list.

Currently, the "worst," for me, however, is the whole NPC driver logic. It seems to have become worse in the past update.
I don't remember being run over so much when the game first came out. Now, just about every session I get run down by NPCs on a regular basis.
I mean, traffic has always been sketchy, but now, it's just tragically ridiculous.

 

Fun thread, OP! Thank you!

Ragdolling for 2 feet going down a mountain and then you die as if all the blood in your body left every pour and orfice on you even though you had more than half health

[EggsAndJam]

Losing in a deathmatch? - let's make it easier for you by making the screen go all greeny/black and contrasty so you can't see anything

[The Jungz]

Constantly adding interesting and innovative features in GTA Online but completely screwing up the mechanics of them or any potential it had AND keep everything away from SP. Like making the most creative and succulent fine dining dishes, and then flooding the f*cking plate in gravy.

Spinning rims/floaters would look cool... if they worked as it should be...
It seems R* was a bit lazy to this small detail that makes sense to a Lowrider.

 

Obs: not my car

 

[Rewdalf]

I still hate the whole "oh, you're not first place? Loser!" mentality.

 

Like, if you constantly place in the top three you're clearly doing something right.

That, or there's one guy constantly ramming and pitting people...

 

Why are there no rewards or statistics for second and third place...?

It's probably been said before, but jets. Just jets.

I've always thought this was idiotic too.

 

If you're in a 16 man race, coming in second is a pretty damn good thing.

There are three words in the dictionary that address this: Winner, Loser, and Participant.

Hey, second place is the first loser...!

But you're right, there should be more than 'winner' or 'loser'.

[shimenki]

Im a noob really enjoying this game in solo mode so the list below are not game killers...just things that can be refined.

 

1) Why would i drop my helmet on the ground everytime i take it off--or at all for that matter.

 

2) I dont smoke or drink yet i have smokes and beer i cant drop / discard

 

3) These npcs on motorbikes seem totally dismountable

 

4) In my 1.1 mill pad i cant drink the milk specifically left on the counter

 

5) Why would i after showering wear and sleep in the same cloths i worked in all day?

 

6) Upon looting nps, the loot result disappears so fast i have no idea what i just gained by running all the way over there for

 

7) Why are we mute...id like to have a few options to say to npcs (evil grin)

 

Lets have the ability to knock out and take criminal npcs as hostages for ...i dont know..bounty etc

 

[askinnywhitedildo]

Why the f*ck would you allow anyone the right to make a custom match and upload it so it gets in the way of actual matches? Every custom deathmatch is sh*t, and 90% of them are garbage parkour maps. That sh*t needs to go. It needs to go bad. Or at give me the option to turn it off. DO not f*cking force me to play that garbage. It's killing this game for me, has been for years.

 

And KDR should not even be in Free Roam. Nothing you do in Free Roam should affect your KDR. If you want a high KDR, go play Death Matches. This is why there is jets everywhere, with little f*ckers with fake 3.00 KDRs.

 

Why do I have to wait 5 minutes to get a car sent to me? Why can't I get another car sent to me if my current one is still beside me? Is it too hard to despawn one and send me the other?

[KreatiivFox]

Rockstar: What shall we add today?

GTA Community: What about liveries?

Rockstar: Splendid idea! And let's make it so that not a single color matches the livery on the vehicle!

GTA Community: Wait, why would you--

Rockstar: Aaand done.

 

(I'm looking at you, "Surf's Up" livery)

----------------

As a noob i noticed this wanted level was a tad high for sure..but then again i arrived here from a different game (elite dangerous) which has such crazy wanted levels and ...countless other stifling restrictions and illogicals that this seemed incredibly refreshing. The cloths thing surely will get refined yes?

[shimenki]

 

A cop car hits YOU. they immediately start shooting... At least give them batons and pepper-spray at one star. So when they kill you, you are busted, not wasted... Let the fine be 500 and retrieve your car from the impound and you respawn at the nearest police station.

-------------------------

 

I totally agree with this. Make only military response have very high driving and aiming ability and only when you are 4 stars or better. Let cops have mob level abilities only

Maybe if they can get your health down via melee to a point, animation occurs to show you taken to jail..which lasts for 5 IRL mins

Going "undercover" in Biker delivery missions to be discreet... with packages that that magically display your location and tell every hostile motherf*cker in the land that you are ready to receive a good hard PvP shafting

Cloud Simulator

 

Youre in an invite only sess

You get for example a heist invite

You try to join

-Rockstar makes you quit your session

Error the current session is full of players

-Rockstar loads you in random public session

I quit and have to load up invite only again

 

Like seriously why cant they check if sessions r full before quitting the session. Or just boot back into the one you were when its full -_-

[Skycam]

Encourage players to "grief" others. Give them options to avoid "griefers" like passive mode and ghost mode (not ghost organization, ghost mode, it's when a player kills you 3 times unanswered you have an option to ghost them for 3 minutes.)

 

Then add an option to report for griefing. *facepalm*

 

Edit: to add to this.. kill afk/low level/whoever 100 times in a row unanswered game gives 2k for being a good sport, blow up a hostile armored vehicle hit with insurance and a bad sport warning.

 

What in the actual f*ck!
