OK what has 1.17 changed?

[BondageKitty]

I think tanks now have a first person camera.

About time

[Shaundi.]

- The tail rotor on the Police Maverick is now bullet-proof.

 

I was under the impression they took longer to destroy now they're bulletproof. I enjoyed seeing police helicopters spinning uncontrollably with the help of my minigun. Now this is impossible

 

Thanks a f*cking lot ,Rockstar

If you press triangle when next to bicycle in garage you will sit on the saddle, if you press triangle again you will commit suicide and fly across the garage. I even teleported a couple of blocks away and ended up near the helicopter pad place

 

Wow! so what exactly do you mean, do you mean you sit on the bike while it is on the wall? Oh well hell I guess I'll have to just try it myself, lol

 

 

Yep that's exactly what happened, I can probably get pics up in a couple of hours if needed. When I did it it was on a bmx

lol snap

 

i used it on the Tank match from the LTS Event and didn't even noticed it was new.

something told me, just go 1st person, then i didn't like it and switched back.

but it was bugging me.

 

on that note, has it changed for bikes and atv's?

 

because i swear i wasn't able to see my hands on it before, but i can't be sure.

to me it feels changed, it looks exactly like the 1st person glitch used to.

 

it gives a great view of all the gauges and such, tweaks to match next gen?

Seriously this is such a stupid change. I loved this update until this point. I love, I mean love seeing the pork choppers spin out of control. All the better when the Noose guys end up flying through the air.

Let's be honest the police needed a serious buff, it was just too easy to out run them they were only keeping pace with my entinty, and their 0-60 was way too slow at 2 seconds, they can only find their target 100/100 times from 1000 feet away with a handgun.

►The BF Surfer is listed on "SouthernSanAndreasSuperAutos" as being able to carry 4 people, when it can actually only seat 2.

►If you die with the "Grenade Launcher" equipped you lose 10 grenades.

►Dying NOW causes your equipped Parachute Smoke Trail Color to revert back to "No Smoke Trail".
►Switching Sessions or Quitting Online causes your Reserve Parachute to become unequipped.

◆You will unlock and receive "The Record Holder" Platinum Trophy and the "Racing Blonde" tattoo for this race if you have not already unlocked it.

►"Passive Mode" is glitched, it does NOT affect all player's and it is not known what causes the the glitch, but it will randomly Drop you Out of "Passive Mode"
◆There are no absolute rime or reason to this Passive Mode Glitch/Bug it is simply very frustrating, because at any time you can be dropped out of "Passive Mode" without any warning and shot in the face, have a bounty placed on you or anything horrible like that.
◆It also appears that sometimes when you are dropped from "Passive Mode" you don't even get the cool-down timer, you are just able to use your weapons immediately.

Newly Renamed, Retitled, Revised or Confirmed Exploits/Glitches:as of 10/3 6:48pm CDT

-Easy "The Police Mocker" Platinum Award & RP(500RP/10seconds):, Retitled & Revised, Previously Named: "-Easy "The Police Mocker" Platinum Award"

 

►I have also added this statement to the "-Easy "The Police Mocker" Platinum Award & RP(500RP/10seconds):" Tutorial;

It appears that the glitch MAY not working BUT it has NOT been patched and it still works for RP. It seems as if R☆ has frozen the reward's counter in an attempt to patch the glitch and by doing so they have totally ruined the reward, you know, as R☆ so often does, lol. I have reached this conclusion because players are reporting that their count for the reward NO LONGER goes up even if they lose the 5 Star wanted level legitimately. Also this is NOT a $Money Glitch, the money that appears in your CASH has been transferred from your BANK by a Refund. You paid Lester $1,000 from your BANK and he refunds the $1,000 to your CASH.

Why does rockstar keep the gates locked at the airport? Seems like a dick move, the gates should be open all the time.

[Shaundi.]

I remembered when I was playing last night.. The tank has been nerfed again. Turret moves slower. Will confirm when I get on soon.

For the phone call, I've been experiencing that for a while, at least before v1.16 / July. I always though it was normal, like a very needy phone rep...

Didn't the Lazer lose the tracers with v1.16?

 

Also, those (new) height arrows also apply to enemies (other players) within LTS (more reason for Off Radar) and NPC enemies in gang attacks.

Yeah they were open yesterday, but R* most of close them back.

Not sure if this happened to anyone else, but the vapid hotknife used to have Channel X as default station, now it has EAst Los FM. Not sure if it was the only car they changed.

[NudasPriest]

The Pegasus vehicle despawning is some serious bull sh*t. The vehicles despawn way too soon, there were things I used to do that would often involve placing getaway vehicles around the map and now that isn't really viable. I really hope they change this back to the way it was before, kind of defeats the purpose of owning a pegasus vehicle when this happens.

Other creator changes:

You can no longer jump or climb when on foot in the creator.

Most props can be raised or lowered by clicking the left and right thumb sticks. (Get ready for more mile high melee DMs!)

New weapons are not available for placement. New motorcycles are.

Has any one noticed this new weird glitch?

Sometimes if I'm in passive mode it will randomly disable its self even if I didn't kill anyone. Also when I drive into my garage on a vehicle and get out, my character will warp inside of the last vehicle I was in and start it up.

[Vec]

You may have noticed already...but everytime you shoot with the marksman rifle, it makes a slight "ding" sound.

[BondageKitty]

Not sure if I said this here or somewhere else but now weapons lock-on while parachuting.

A license plate that can be earned by either creating a LTS map and having it selected by R* as one of five winners or It can also be earned by having a Snapmatic picture that features LTS content being chosen by R* as one of five winners again.

[maybeanotherone]

okay, i'm pretty sure we have new 1st person cameras for bikes, quads and jetski's aswell.

 

i don't remember seeing my character's shoulders nor looking back and actually seeing what's back there.

 

but i had been off the game for a while so i can't state for sure, can anyone else confirm?

 

 

and didn't we always have lock-on on parachutes? i've done my fair share of jumps with weapons enabled, and i always locked-on provided i was in range, which is the hard part in the air.

 

i always locked-on at the soldiers standing by the jets in zancudo when i parachute in.

Im personally happy. I hate when I order a vehicle and it spawns way far away or land my heli on a roof only to fall off and then have to drive all the way to the nearest chopper pad then fly all the back to get my stranded vehicle. They should increase the time to about 6min though before it despawns.

another thing.

 

have the scenery reflections on wet floor improved or at least match SP?

 

because it seems better, brighter and more vivid to me.

driving fast through the highway when raining has this sort of clear mirror effect now.

cars don't reflect but everything else does.

 

are they tweaking stuff they now figured how to do better from working on the new console versions?
