If players want to 'mind their own business', they shouldn't be in a public lobby wondering why they are getting run over.

true to a point, if i'm actually wanting to do something like get photos of my vehicles or something then yeah i solo session, but just because i go to an open lobby should not mean i have to PvP. what if i'm just wanting to dick around and meet new random players that i would not meet any other way? i've randomly met some pretty cool players this way, because not everyone in Online is a shoot first and just keep shooting again type player, but if it's just all PvP then i switch sessions if i'm not wanting to do that.

Passive players should:

Not take any player damage whatsoever- includes vehicular kills- players can be hit by player vehicles but not die from it.

Not take player damage whilst in a vehicle but that cannot use weapons while driving. If the vehicle is destroyed by a player, the passive mode player can just simply get out like in friendly GTA IV

but they are in a 4 wheel weapon!!!

 

more than once i have been ran over by a passive player in a car.

 

with your idea they would become some sort of god mode!

 

And probably more than once you've started a fight with a player who wasn't interested, i.e. they were in passive. You got no room to complain.

I bet more than once you have had your ass whooped, went passive then came out to shoot them in the back. Which is why you want the timer removed huh?

Why do people think passive mode should equal god mode? You get access to private lobbies, but still want to bitch about being able to just "cruise" when you enter public pvp lobbies, well that is exactly why you have private lobbies available. It makes no sense to get a god mode option, it takes away from the immersion R* has worked so hard to create. Freeroam is a pvp server, if you can't handle it go private and stop crying. Passive mode at least gives you a chance, but 90% of the time in my personal expeirience passive is used by a griefer when you kill them, or by morons who want to run in the middle of the street or follow you giving you the finger, then try to go out of passive and shoot you in the back. You always have a way out on the D-pad, if your a bitch then use it you don't belong in pvp.

 

And for the failed logic of wanting to go public to meet people, this isnt e-harmony and its not our fault you have no friends. It may be time to take a look at yourself and ask why you have no friends rather then try to break our pvp servers.

Passive mode should actually be ghost mode. And your blip shouldn't change until you are able to draw a weapon, not after a 10 second wait. In fact there shouldn't be a 10 second wait.

Why so you can kill me, go into passive and not let me kill you. Then when I turn my back you, you kill me again?

 

Before they make passive players invincible they need to fix...

People that were in a tank or jet 5 minutes before shouldn't be able to activate passive mode.

Players that just killed a player has to wait 2 minutes before going passive.

If the player manages to kill someone while in passive then passive is automatically disabled and there is a 1 minute cool down before they can fire.

Nahhhh. Just make the players ghosts like they do with the non-contact races, then people wouldn't be dying in Passive Mode.

yes it definately should be added but only if the car your in is stationary. If it's moving at all it's a weapon and can be abused as one while your passively not getting shot inside.

Passive in stationary car = win

Passive in moving car = chaos

ur just a ballbag. Freeroam is exactly that (PVP but with PVE options available if you so wish, ie golf, ferris wheel etc) not what you just fancy it being.

Seems to me that if you kill a passive player with your gun while they are driving you should get bad sports points, and passive players should get bad sports points for running people over....as far as i know it doesnt work like this atm

 

What they really need to do as was suggested further back is to introduce passive lobbies like IV and RDR, i think they would be a fresh experience and alot of fun.

Wow I never expected this topic to escalate this fast. But honestly I think passive mode is fine OUTSIDE of cars.

 

Like BondagekKitty said, I'm more focused about the INSIDE of cars while in passive mode.

 

Whenever I am getting slaughtered trying to mind my business or come out LSC shop, I ALWAYS find myself being shot at for no reason inside my car WHILE IN PASSIVE.

 

It's bullsh*t. I can't even fight them back in my car nor care to, because when I go to passive, I don't try kill or exploit it, like the proper way.

 

All I'm saying, is that I feel Passive mode should have you invulnerable from player's bullets while in car. And to keep it balanced, make it so you can't run over players, but just go through them like in non contact races.

 

Same thing vise versa when on foot in passive mode. Any player trying to run me over when they see me walking to the clothing store, should go right through me, just like in non contact races. Same applies with the fire truck too (I had someone keep spamming the water hose at me while I was in passive mode).

 

Players with high mental state SHOULD NOT be able to have passive mode. Because I find high mental state players to be douchebags with the feature.

 

That's all what I meant.

not really but it's a online real time game. There is no pause button. PPL just want to be able to go into passive and go have a sh*t or whatever and come back to find yourself still there and not getting spawn raped by a fire truck griefer who finds it funny to attack a stationary figure. Fuk me there is NPC's everywhere they will give you more fight than a AFK player.

True, this is the one thing I hate about online gaming. No pause button. I have to be glued in front of my TV in hopes my vehicle isn't blown up and I'm being kill streaked while I step out of my room in 5 minutes.

 

That's the whole point of Passive mode being useful, but was executed sloppy. And being run over or shot while inside while in Passive Mode, needs to be fixed. It's pissing me off with these Kill hogs in free roam lobbies, from a random red dot player.

Vehicular manslaughter.

So no.

More often than not, people in PM are trying to avoid getting killed by trolls, in which case I say yes, add it. But if you kill somone while in PM, then it should be disabled for a time period (lets say an hour) and a hefty fine paid ($2000) which increases each time the mode is abused

I just want to enjoy playing the game at my pace. Sometimes I'll engage in a firefight with someone, but when I'm done, I want to be able to drive away without having to worry about a tank or jet, or getting sticky bombed or RPGd

This man gets it! You know am30 is a bitch who does exactly what we called him on. He kills people, gets rocked then goes passive. Afterwards when said player isn't looking comes back for the sneak attack.

Honestly, they should just add passive mode to vehicles as well, BUT a non-contact feature will be enabled whenever passive mode is on. Same thing with being on foot. Also, when the countdown to getting out of passive begins, the non-contact feature should be disabled as well.

Because I find it cheap that players can still kill in passive mode with their cars. -,-

 

I do not even understand the question. Do you mean that people in passive can kill others while inside their cars? It is impossible to be passive while inside a car.

Not trying to insult you, but this got to be the most retarded idea I have ever heard.

 

Let us look at like this: you are in a firefight against some random guy and he decides to go into passive, okay fair enough. He walks up to you and when you enter your car, he decides to go out of passive and, because there is no 10 second timer, he kills you instantly. He is then free to go back into passive. You cannot kill him at all, while he can keep repeating the process over and over.

 

TD;LR: Leave passive mode as it is, do not make it easier for passive griefers.

Or you could just put vehicle access to no one...

 

Just saying.

^ Yahhh, make it non-contact and don't allow the drivers or passengers to use their weapons. The cars should be ghosts so the passive player can't splatter other players. The AI should still be able kill you though.

if you need to step out i would think you'd know ahead enough to get to your garage or apartment or at the very least find a quick safe spot to hole up while your gone. there is quite a few places to do this. in the city they're just about everywhere, countryside not so much, but they're there. i know what you mean though about the way it is, but it is what it is and we can only find our own ways to deal with it.

 

^ Yahhh, make it non-contact and don't allow the drivers or passengers to use their weapons. The cars should be ghosts so the passive player can't splatter other players. The AI should still be able kill you though.

this would be basicly a invisible/god mode. also are you considering cops as npc's? if no one can use weapons and npc's have weapons with very good aim, if you somehow provoke them what is someone to do? drive over them? what if the npc doesn't get out of their vehicle and keep shooting? or maybe running away? i think having to run away from an npc would be more degrading than running from a player IMO.
