Holy sh*t that Bravado Buffalo was a secret Vapid Agent all along!

that is easy to explain.

basicly all the police vehicles (with rare exceptions) use the Taxi interior.

the FIB Buffalo too.

 

so no "corparate espionage".

just R* being lazy.

Pretty sure the whole "corporate espionage" was a joke, it was also obvious that the vehicle has another vehicle's interior and that's the point of the thread, pointing out nonsense like this.

i know it was a joke... (note to self: signal humor it with emoji)

 

i just think it would be great to give at least a (part reason) for some of the R* logic by looking into the files.

and when it´s just a glitch, or...R* just got lazy.

Getting mugged while in passive mode.

 

(Yes, if someone is abusing passive mode it's handy; but in passive, you're completely defenseless on the ground even when you spot the mugger running toward you. Not what passive mode was intended for).

Actually not, you can still kill yourself via interaction menu in passive, that will get you out of the jam for some time. That's the fastest way, but I evaded muggers couple of times by joining via invites if they were available. Easy way out if faster plus you can macro it.

A stock 4 door Chevelle cost $200k more than a Lamborghini truck & a high end Javelin restomod job.

 

 

I usually ignore commenting on R*'s pricing logic, but this one? I can't even ...

Gas masks do not protect you from the effect of tear gas or gas bombs.

 

The flamethrower on the Cerberus causes damage to itself when used and can destroy it.  Good one, Rockstar.

So in Import/Export, we sell a car with a market value of $2 million, and the guy pays us $100,000, but only if we’ve loaded it with gross modifications. I know it’s all R* underpaying so people will snap and buy shark cards, but really? 1/20 of the market value?

Its either that or you get paid a set percentage of the vehicles total value. A flat eighty grand is better than getting paid peanuts for the majority of the Low End and Standard class I/E cars.

It is a stolen car after all, you're really only out the time sourcing and selling, and whatever ammo you spend.

Small rockstar logic: The normal Patriot STILL doesn't have an exhaust sometimes when you see them in traffic, even AFTER the after-hours DLC when they had the chance of having a re-look at the model...

Easy to explain.

The roof lights and the exhaust on the side are part of the same model.

That means they are connected and can't exist without the other.

 

And i guess the patriots with exhausts you saw, also didn't had roof lights.

Missing a checkpoint on a "Hotring" style track. If I'm going around some little sh*t .25mi track that's literally a small oval...how can I possibly miss ANY checkpoints...Aye yi yi

Putting the RC Bandito in "Inventory" instead of "Vehicles".

[SqualidCoyote]

Massive bastard strong helicopter clips an electric pylon and BOOM!

Guy on a flying rocket bike slams head first into a pylon and, oh he bounces off without even a minor boom or a hit to his armour.

Might have been mentioned before.. 

 

With arena wars we got the ability to set races to restricted, meaning we can choose what custom cars we want to allow in each class, so far so good but if I add some more cars to f ex sports class I have to test the race again, no other changes than adding a couple of cars.. Race is set to super as default, so I have to test it with the super car I have set as default.. R* logic at it's finest, lol

I don't get the logic behind that if the race is set to f.ex ten laps, I have to do ten laps to test the race before I can publish it, even tho the laps will be exactly the same.. 

[whywontyoulisten]

They won't give us any new street races for normal cars, but give us a whole bunch of flat tarmac races for off-road RC buggies.

I've had this happen way too many times, even though I know for certain that I drove through the checkpoint. I wonder if Rockstar made the game to purposefully do that if we are running well (ie, up front or haven't hit anyone in a certain amount of time) or of the game just hiccups and doesn't render the confirmation of going through the checkpoint.

[Urban Legends]

Oh man..just played a really awful race from Rockstar.  With the wrong supercar it was hell. Literally fell short on some jumps and overshot other. Most of the times I am quite impressed but this for me was noticably diffferent. I will try to post the name if I come across it again.

 

Also.. One of these current double events.. A rally race. Total hell with 16 players. I dont think they tested the track with even 8 cars for that matter!! 

[Dr. Robotnik]

Ignore this. In the Grapeseed P.O.W. mission, the client can spawn in several rooms even if he usually spawns in one of two, so my complaint wasn't based on facts.

Messing around with the RC Bandito on the beach reveals that the Impenetrable Volleyball Nets 'O Doom have collision boxes that go down to the ground, so no driving underneath them. 

 

Also, said RC Bandito is electric but smokes / explodes like it has fuel (but then that's an age-old R* Logic with electric / hybrid cars).

Because nobody would be stupid enough to pay market value for a stolen car even if it's pink slip record had been cleared, because any close inspection to the car's VIN could show signs of tampering/modifications.

 

Plus, if they're going to pay market value for a stolen car, why not just go ahead and buy the car through legitimate means?

 

Moreover, the entire point of buying a stolen car in the black market is to buy it for cheap anyway.

You learn something everyday. And all this time I thought the active spoiler gave extra traction like in the T20! I bought a primary colored engine cover on mine right after getting it, so I never felt the difference.

that's because it does work like the one on t20 and the engine mod doesn't actually add any traction.

Oh hell  Makes sense though.

 

I stand corrected then.

You can wear a wristwatch with a suit pants, but you can't wear a wristwatch with a fitted suit pants.

If you bet 100$ and your opponent bets 1000$, you'll win 780$. If you bet 1000$ and your opponent bets 1000$, you'll win 600$. Because logic.

If you steer into the ground on your side in any vehicle it'll return uprighted...but if you're in GTAV the opposite is true...
