Woke up wrong side of bed?

 

Why not start your very own thread!!?

I promise to contribute if your own topic/thread is NOT terrible, NOT awful, NOT very bad, but yes good thread.

 

Looking forward to it already.... :)

 

 

 

Correct me if I'm wrong fellow gta players (especially those 25 years old and over) but wasn't it possible to use the machine gun and tank turret at the same time in one of the previous gta games? I mean gta III, vice city or san andreas?... I always found it kind of odd in gta v having a tank with a mg that is unable to fire...

You're thinking of the Scorpion from Halo CE and Halo 2 maybe?

 

 

I DON'T recall any MG working with ANY tank on any GTA version.

 

Why are you telling me?

 

 

If you are being "quoted" don't automatically assume I am responding directly to you. In this case I am simply answering to the both of you. But perhaps a little more thought and time you may have realised this already. This time it is you I am responding to, the previous time it was BOTH. Now go and have that warm milk and cookie, you deserve it.

Not that I know of. Unless you mean the APC tank from BoGT? Although its been a while since I've played it, I'm pretty sure that didn't have a turret either.

Nope, just a mounted MG I think... ^^

I look forward to the guy who has quoted himself three times in his own signature posting in my awesome thread.

Cannon has reload time.

 

MG unleashes a stream of death while being behind armor.

 

Not if you requireed operation of the .50 Cal to be done by another player.

 

Therefore I would argue that the reason that the secondary MG is unusable is because the player that manned that gun would be far more vulnurable to attack than the tank driver.

 

That's why no one uses the secondary gun onboard a tank in Halo vehiclular combat.

 

That's probably it, but the option should be there though. If I want to climb into the top hatch of a tank manning the gun exposing myself as a friend drives around, then that's my choice. Rockstar shouldn't be making that decision for me.

Lol, what other decisions are they making for you? Giving you a face and making you wear clothes? Are they also making the decision for you to only be human?

 

Sorry :p just poking fun at the way you phrased your point. No harm intended.

 

I don't think the MG thing is them making a decision for us, as much as it is just them deciding what THEY want in THEIR game lol.

What the hell is the point of a second hatch and a machine gun if we can't use it?

 

Because RockstarGames is taking the fun from us.

 

From a fun game they gave us?

Couldn't care less if twankers get to bring their boyfriends on board with them to handle their gun. Easy pickins.

GTA 2 had a cannon and nothing else, so did GTA 3, Vice City, San Andreas, Advance, LCS, VCS, CTW and V. San Andreas had a riot tank with a water cannon and TBOGT had an APC with explosive rounds

Yes. One of the tanks in a previous game had a functioning MG. I'm almost sure it was GTA3. Most of you aren't even old enough to have played it though.

 

The first thing I thought when I got in the Rhino was, how do I fire the machine gun?

Having one douch in a tank is enough for me thanks.

Can do without another guy MG'ing out the top taking the number of douches contained within upto two.

 

If you want a realistic tank crew, commander, gunner, driver, that's what Battlefield or Project Reality is for.

Think about how many people piss and whine about tanks, now imagine how many more people would cry and fuss if the MG was functional.

Having a tank in GTA is realistic as proven by this video...

 

 

so realistic......

I cannot imagine. but it would be fun finding out !!! :)

It would be really cool to have a friend using the mounted gun. Or if it was possible to park the tank and climb up to use the mounted gun instead of driving the tank and managing the cannon if you're by yourself.

That is how it was back in the good old days of video games. Now everything is decor and add-ons.

Yeah, good point. I didn`t even notice to check the date of the message. My mistake.

The guys who are against this probably don`t even have a tank lol. It does make no sense to not be able to use the mounted machine gun.

A functional turret would be the perfect excuse for a Rhino Custom/Mk II.

 

Make it happen R*.

That "Destroyed in Seconds" clip though. I remember that show, it was interesting.

This 2014 thread and 2014 replies are from a week after the 6.17.14 release of I'm Not a Hipster update.
And a month after the High Life update that gave us the great Zentorno and the option to own 2 properties instead of one.

Heists were 9 months away, update cars were still added to single player character' garages.
There were fun glitches working around this time. The Stairway to Heaven glitch was my favorite.


Starting a job and then quiting still worked for breaching into locked interiors.
Fun too was using the same start and quit while in the movie theater that allowed free movement in the theater interior.

Gta online in mid 2014 had way less content then now, but worked very well for what it did have and on last gen consoles.

El Diablo 702

Wow nice bump. The real reason is R*.  But that’s just what everyone wanted a tank made of cardboard held together with scotch tape and called the mk2.  R* killed the rhino just like a poucher in the African plains.
